My name is Ariel Gilbert. I'm the oldest Gilbert. I'm popular for my eyes. They're a color that had never been seen in eyes before, purple. My parents don't know how I got purple eyes but they loved them before they died. My younger siblings Elena a...
Ariel's POV I walk downstairs a couple of minutes after Elijah left. I hear a car pull up as I step off the last step of the stairs. I instantly know it's Elijah. I walk to the door and open it. Elijah is standing by the passenger door.

He grins when he sees me. He opens the door as I get near him. He kisses me before letting me get into the car. He closes the door behind me and quickly goes to the drivers side. I smile at him. I tap his shoulder before he turns on the car. He turns to me and raises an eyebrow. 'There is a decade dance tonight. Takes place in the 60's. Want to go with me?' I sign. "Only if you talk," he says. 'Deal,' I sign. 'But not now.' "Damn," he says. He stops in the parking lot of the school. Everyone turned their heads had their jaws dropped. Elijah leaned towards me and kissed me. I kissed him back. He pulled away and got out. He walked to my side and opened the door. I got out and hugged him. He hugged me back and kissed my forehead. "I'll see you after school, Gorgeous," He says and pulls away. 'Bye, Elijah,' I sign. 'Bye,' he signs back. He gets in the car and drives away. Everyone is still watching me as I smile and walk to my locker. I pass Elena, Stefan, Bonnie, Matt, Caroline, Jeremy, and Tyler as I make my way to the door. "What the hell was that, Ariel?" Caroline says. 'What he's hot,' I sign. "Ariel, you can't date him. He is the enemy not the ally," Elena says. 'I'm the oldest. Don't tell me what to do, ever. Got it, Elena,' I sign and walk away. 'Elena needs to back off. He is the best thing for me and she is going to figure that out when I talk later today,' I thought to myself to class. -Time Skip- It was finally lunch time so I walk out to my usual spit under my tree. As I make my way towards my tree I notices an all to familiar car. It's Elijah's. I walk towards it and notice Elijah getting out of it. He sees me and instantly a smile is brought to his face. "I told you I would come to have lunch with didn't I?" He says in the most handsome voice ever. I smile and shake my head. "Come on, let's go get you something to eat," he says opening the door. I smile and get into the car. Since I'm a senior I can go off of the school grounds for lunch unlike Elena and our other friends who are a year younger than me. Everyone watches as we go by to the exit. Elena is glaring at Elijah through the windshield and Damon is with them glaring at him as well. Damon is a older brother to me and is very protective. -Time Skip- I went back to school after having lunch with Elijah and the day went by quickly. Now I'm at my locker putting my stuff away so I can get back to Elijah. I walk outside and see Elijah by the door. Girls are looking at him and I'm not happy about that but he doesn't seem to notice because right when I walk out the door is in front of me. He leans down and kisses me softly. I hear 'aww' all around us but I ignore it. I pull away and he instantly grabs my hand. We walk past the group of girls that were fawning over Elijah. "Hey Ariel," they all say and I nod to them. Elijah doesn't even glances at them and keeps walking. I heard whispers, "I can't believe Ariel has an older boyfriend and he looks amazing in a suit." I silently smirk and let go of Elijah's hand to wrap my arm around his waist. He wraps his around mine too. He looks at me and smiles. We get to his car and a group of boys are around it. They see me and smile. "Hey Ariel," they saw and that causes Elijah to growl. They look at him and quickly run off. "Here you go, Gorgeous," he says and opens the car door. I get in and buckle up. He is already inside the car and is starting it. "When do you plan to talk?" he asks me. 'Tonight,' I sign and he smiles. I get a text and look at it. 'Come to the boarding house to talk don't bring Elijah. It is about Klaus, D,' I totally forgot about that. 'Alright but I'm getting ready for the dance there too,' I text. 'Alright,' Damon texts back. Elijah looks at me and frowns. I shrug my shoulders and look out the window. We get to my house and I'm about to open the door when a hand grabs my wrist gently. I look at Elijah. "Who texted you earlier?" he asked. 'Elena asked me to get ready for the decade dance with her at the Salvatore's house tonight,' I sign. He sighs of relief and smiles. "Okay then I guess I'll see you at the dance tonight, Gorgeous," he says and kisses my cheek. I smile and nod my head. I open the door and get out. I walk to my front door and open it. I turn around and wave to Elijah and he smiles before driving off. I walk inside to find Elena there. "Ariel grab your things and let's get to the Boarding House," Elena says softly. 'Okay,' i sign. I get my stuff and walk back downstairs. Elena sees me and walks to the door. "Jenna were getting ready at the boarding house see you later," Elena calls out. "But girls have fun," She calls back as we walk out.
