Katherine leered closer to Elena. Elena was dumbstruck and lost. "How do we look exactly alike?" Elena breathed out in disbelief. Katherine's ringed finger came up to brush across Elena's collar bone.
Elena shivered unconsciously. "You're asking the wrong questions," Katherine drawled out lowly and almost threateningly.
She kept her eyes on Katherine. Katherine then turned to Elena. "Don't you remember?" she rasped out lowly. It was voiced with some deep emotion. Elena could see it in her eyes.
Before she could say anything she blinked and suddenly Katherine was gone.
She turned to see Stefan giving her a look of worried. "Stefan what's going on?" she demanded breathlessly. Stefan came forward and hugged her tightly, taking in her calming scent.
Elena hugged him back for shelter and felt safe when she was in his arms. "You met Katherine I assume?" Stefan asked lowly as they pulled away slightly.
Elena gulped and nodded silently. "She said something about….Don't you remember?" Elena asked confused. Stefan's composure suddenly tightened. "Don't listen to her Elena, she's a liar and will do anything to get under your skin," Stefan replied lowly.
Elena bit her lip and looked up at Stefan questioningly. She knew he was lying but she didn't want to push him anymore on the subject. "I just wanted to check on you. I'll see you later," Elena pulled away and quickly ran out of the door. Ignoring Stefan's calls from behind.
She walked quickly into the woods and kept walking a longs way away. She knew she was out earshot to any people's house. "Katherine!" Elena was suddenly desperate for answers. And she knew Katherine wouldn't care about protecting her feelings and would just tell her how it is.
She blinked and suddenly Katherine was there with a malicious smirk. "You called?" she questioned teasingly. "What did you mean by that?" Elena demanded. Keeping full eye contact with her vampire twin.
Katherine's playful composure seemed to drop suddenly with those words. "Whatever do you mean Elena?" she asked playing dumb, easily transparent to Elena.
"You know what I mean," Elena deadpanned emotionlessly. Katherine was quite surprised by her doppelganger. She's a feisty one, Katherine thought lewdly to herself with a slight smirk.
"I said don't you remember," Katherine reminded her in a matter-of-fact tone. "What am I suppose to remember?" Elena fired back quickly. "Us," Katherine deadpanned. Elena's eyes widened.
"1864," Katherine added, keeping her eyes planted on Elena gauging her reaction. Elena gulped. "Could you explain more please?" Elena demanded calmly.
"When I came here in 1864 you were Elena Gilbert and suppose to court Damon Salvatore," Katherine rasped.
Elena's nails dug into her palm nervously. "But since he was out in war it was called off. So you were a free 17 year old girl." Katherine kept a simple look across her face. "I saw you and noticed the instant resemblance. People talked about it, but they soon forgot about it and paid it no mind. Thought we were just long lost sisters perhaps with how much time we spent with eachother."
Elena was clearly surprised but kept quiet and just nodded for Katherine to continue. "I met you the first day I arrived and I was immediately interested, Katherine said nonchalantly.
Elena felt her conscious start to waver but she desperately held on tight, wanting to hear the full story. "We talked and you noticed I was a vampire instantly, since you were quite the supernatural-book addict," Katherine smirked teasingly toward Elena.
Elena felt a slight smile across her face and she chuckled lowly.
Katherine smirked and continued on. "You were the first one to figure it out and you kept it a secret without compulsion, and that made us closer. Some people like the Salvatores were a little suspicious about our relationship," Katherine sighed.
"Then the boys came in and I started to spend time with Stefan as well." "It was probably his wet dream to see both you and me to spend time with him," Elena grinned. "I'm pretty sure he dreamt up a fantasy or two about us with him." Katherine nodded and smirked back.
"And then Damon came back into the picture. He had his eyes set on you still, and I admit I was jealous. I had spent so much time with you, and I didn't want anyone else to have you. After all that time I cared. I was possessive and made sure that he knew you were mine," Katherine stopped and bared her teeth to Elena in a seductive yet conniving manner.
Elena shivered and just gulped. "Then the battle of willow creek happened," Katherine grimaced. "They mistook you as me when they saw you around my carriage to take me to the church. So they carried you away to some other confinement and as I escaped I watched you burn to ash. I was ready to save you, but I couldn't, the fire had gone up to quickly and there was no time," she sniffled.
Elena was surprised. "Then how am I-" Katherine quickly cut Elena off. "Reincarnation somehow," Katherine furrowed her brows slightly as she tried to think of it.
Elena felt her knees wobbled slightly and she fell to the wet ground of the woods. Katherine frowned and disappeared unable to handle it.
Elena dry heaved uncontrollably and felt sick to her stomach. She stood up waveringly and stumbled back in the direction of the Salvatores, not even knowing how long her and Katherine were talking.
She groped the wall almost blindly as she reached the house. Her stomach rumbled in disdain. She pushed the large door open and she gagged suddenly she wretched right there and felt herself so close to fall in unconsciousness.
Damon and Stefan heard her and quickly came in to see coiled up on the ground. A puddle right next to her. She convulsed. "You didn't tell me!" she yelled. She got herself up and held onto something stable.
Their eyes widened. "I thought you'd tell me Damon. Since you apparently were suppose to marry me then. Till you probably didn't want to and ran off to the war!" Elena glared.
Damon and Stefan stopped in realization. "How-" she quickly cut them off. "I knew you were lying Stefan when you said she was just trying to mess with us but I called for Katherine and she told me everything," she whimpered at the end.
Stefan came forward and held Elena tightly. She leant into him tiredly. "I died in the fire," she breathed out. "Just let me sleep," she whispered and she felt herself fall asleep in Stefan's arms.
Elena tossed and turned and she felt a blurry world build together in her inner mind. It was 1864.
Elena was in the gardens of The Old Salvatore manor, having a conversation with Giuseppe Salvatore. Suddenly there was Stefan Salvatore coming out into the gardens with a woman by his side. She had her hair pinned up with a few loose stray curls. A sun-hat covering a good amount of her face.
Elena's eyes widened when she saw the full appearance of the girl. It was like looking into a mirror. Elena gasped and darted up standing face to face with the girl. They were staring eachother intensely in the eye.
Elena's side ponytail fell onto her bare shoulder as she stared at her. "Miss Gilbert, this is Miss Pierce," Stefan spoke in the background. Elena stopped their staring contest and turned to Stefan to give him a reassuring smile.
"Elena Gilbert madam," Elena introduced herself lowly. "Katherine Pierce," the other one smirked. They curtsied to one another. "How is this possible?" the father of Stefan asked stupidly. They both turned to him and just smiled identical charming smiles. "Long lost sister perhaps," Elena offered politely. Katherine nodded in agreement with Elena.
"Um Miss Gilbert. Stefan and I must talk in private. Would you like to show Katherine her room?" Giuseppe asked. "Yes, in the boarding house correct?" Elena asked unsure. He nodded and passed her a gracious smile. She curtsied and smiled.
"We shall go," Elena said turning to go the direction of the boarding house with Katherine following close behind. Once they were out of sight of The Salvatores, Elena stopped Katherine.
"I wonder how it is possible that you look just exactly like me when you're a vampire," she drawled out casually. Katherine stopped and glared at Elena. "How would you know about my vampirism?" she asked coolly.
Elena scoffed. "I'm quite the supernatural know-it all. I recognize the necklace to be lapis lazuli and only vampires would need it to protect them from the sun." Katherine was clearly surprised by Elena's observation. "You're not daft, I see," Katherine replied with a slight smirk.
Elena grinned in return. "Of course I'm not." They continued walking to the boarding house and they eventually reached it. Elena opened the door for Katherine and showed her to the specified room meant for her.
"That bed looks quite comfortable. Would you like to see with me?" Katherine asked playfully setting on the charm nice and thick. Elena just smirked back seeming just as playful. "Why of course," she rolled her eyes sarcastically.
Katherine's hand came up to gently grasp Elena's wrist. Elena shivered slightly. "You're too kind to me Miss Elena. I hope we could get better acquainted with eachother during my stay here." Elena nodded. "I live just right near you. Not too far, so when I ride every morning I'll pass by just in case you need anything," Elena replied modestly.
"You ride?" Katherine asked in disbelief. "Yes I have a stallion of my own that Damon had bought for me on an outing," Elena smiled dreamily as she mentioned Damon.
"You seem smitten for this "Damon,"" Katherine remarked stiffly. "Oh yes, him and I are going to be in a courtship with one another once he gets back from war," she smiled happily.
"How nice," Katherine replied lowly. "So if you'd like to have company throughout your stay I will most likely either be at my own home or at the Salvatores," Elena said innocently smiling. It clearly surprised Katherine, but she just nodded and watched as her human twin leave the boarding house.
She looked out the window and watched as the girl walked comfortably to the opposite side of the Salvatore manor. Elena thought it was quite odd with meeting Katherine Pierce that day. But she felt pure extraordinary wonder when thinking about it. All the supernatural stuff she read about in the books was true.
Elena gasped awake and realized she was back to reality. Stefan had been watching her, and was alarmed when he saw her rude awakening. "Elena are you ok?" he asked worriedly, quickly shambling to sit on the edge of the bed close to her.
She shivered and kept her eyes on him. "It's all true isn't it?" she asked lowly and almost sounding like a little child.
"Sorry," he frowned, his hand slowly coming up to cup her cheek adoringly. She nuzzled into his touch comfortably. Stefan was glad she wasn't upset with him. "I had a drea-flashback. The first day I met her, when she came to Mystic Falls," Elena whispered, her voice woeful and crestfallen as she remembered it.
Stefan frowned, clearly remembering that day as well. He purposefully kept that out of his story when he first told Elena. He didn't want to overwhelm her. But it seemed it was too late to worry about that.
She sat up shakily so her and Stefan were eye to eye. "No matter what happened before in 1864 with me, you, Damon, and Katherine. I love you Stefan," she whispered coming closer to kiss him softly.
"I love you too," he whispered back, sounding gracious. Elena realized how scared he was of losing her to either his older brother or Katherine. She pulled back and rested her head against his chest.
Elena mutely remembered the feeling Katherine had given her back in 1864 with that little dream she had. "I'm scared Stefan. I wish it wasn't like this," Elena whispered suddenly vulnerable.
Stefan frowned. "I'm sorry for everything that has-" "No it's not you Stefan. I'm glad I met you, I would be lost without you!" Elena cried. "But I wish none of this happened with Katherine, I wish we had nothing to do with her," Elena explained.
Tears fell uncontrollably. She suddenly got an idea in her head.
"Make me forget," she whispered, suddenly looking up to Stefan. Stefan's eyes widened down at her, dumbfounded. "Elena, I can't do that to you-" he whispered incredulous. "Not compulsion Stefan." He raised a questioning eyebrow.
A sudden saucy look came over her features. He suddenly got what she was implying. She gently pushed him on his back and straddled his hips seductively.
His breath quickly caught in his throat and he gripped her hips tightly. She grinned and leant down to kiss him slowly and agonizingly.
Stefan's eyes closed involuntarily and he kissed her back. She kissed him feverously and he replied back enthusiastically.
Katherine was outside listening to the encounter. "Hmm, you wish you never met me huh?" she whispered to herself. She would make Elena eat those words: Metaphorically.
Katherine heard the loud echo of the chain ripping off of Elena's neck as her and Stefan got more steamy. Katherine smirked, and pushed off toward Elena.
Elena's eyes were closed in pleasure. Behind her eyelids she saw Katherine and Katherine was smirking cruelly as she kissed Elena passionately.
She gasped and her eyes flew open instantly. Stefan was too lost in pleasuring her immensely.
Katherine knew she had gotten a reaction out of Elena. She smirked and turned to take off into the night.
