Ella was sitting at her desk, working on schoolwork when a soft knock was head on her door. Her door opened to reveal her mother, who Ella could tell was sweating.''Ella? Can we talk?'' Victoria asked, subconsciously rubbing her left shoulder.
Ella sat her pencil down and turned towards her mother. ''I guess, but I have schoolwork to finish.''
Victoria sat herself on Ella's bed, motioning for her to sit down next to her. Ella got up from her chair slowly and sat down.
For a few moments, Victoria didn't say anything. It was almost like she couldn't say anything. Victoria reached over and grabbed Ella's hands. Ella could feel how cold, sweaty and clammy her skin was.
''Mom?"
''I'm so sorry, Ella. For everything. I didn't mean for how I treated you, I am so sorry.'' Victoria ranted, her crystal blue eyes tearing up.
Ella stared at her mother, for she had never seen her in such a state. Her mother was always so cold and collected, even when she was a small child.
''Why? Why would you treat me like that then?" This question was burning in the back of the mind of Ella.
''I was so scared of losing you, I didn't know how to handle it. Our family kills the things that attacked you at the dance, along with your friend Lydia. The Argent family hunts and kills werewolves. We have a code. We couldn't figure out what you were . . .''
''So instead of helping me, you degrade me. I'm sorry that I got bit, but I did while I was protecting my friends. I thought you'd be proud of me, but you turned the whole family against me, even Allison.'' Ella said, but there was still weight on her shoulders. ''I shouldn't even be speaking to you after what you did, you almost killed Scott. So, why are you here?"
Victoria froze for a moment and touched her left shoulder gently, and then pulled off the teal color fabric, showing a huge bite mark.
Ella's breath got caught in her throat. Her eyes were glued to the mark on her mother's shoulder. The wound had been cleaned, and it looked very recent. ''Is that from . . . Derek?"
Victoria nodded her head sadly, ''Last night when you came to rescue Scott. It happened during the struggle.''
Ella couldn't quiet the voice in the back of her mind that wanted to scream that it was karma for trying to kill Scott. Ella could feel her eyes water, ''Did you tell Allison?"
Victoria shook her head sadly, ''I tried but she's with Lydia trying on dresses.''
Today was Lydia's birthday party, and Ella completely dismissed it.
