"Why are you single?" he asks. "Well," I begin, "I'm annoying, I'm Damon Salvatore's sister, and I've been in a tomb for the last 145 years," I say. He stares at me with utter shock or disbelief, perhaps even both. "Did I mention I'm Damon's sister?" ______________________ BOOK ONE OF THE EVERLASTING SERIES WINNER OF BEST VAMPIRE OC 2017 Ranked 161 in Teen Fanfic of the Week 06/16/16 @tvdcommunity ______________________ "One of the best Salvatore siblings stories that I've read.

I am actually hooked. " - @lilsolarhalo ______________________ NOTE: I do not own any of the characters or story line that originates with the show.

Jamie Gilbert's life was perfectly normal. She had her parents, siblings, and her friends. Most importantly she was happy. But happiness can only last so long. When the Salvatore's come into town, Jamie's world is flipped upside down. Her parents are dead, her sister is acting like she's fine and her baby brother is now a drugie. Just great. And her? Well, she's not too sure to be honest. What do you do when your life starts going to shit? Do you smile and laugh? Do you cry and scream in anger, cursing the world? Or... Do you fall in love? --------- Started: October 4, 2024 Ended: TBD Disclaimer, I do not own The Vampire Diaries or the Originals nor any characters, plot, or dialogue.
