Kept in the dark
Chapter 1
Hi there! This is an idea I came up with whilst re-watching season 3! Plus I never realised how attractive Kol was until I re-watched it, clearly I must have been going a little blind when watching the episodes he appears in the first time! Well anyway heres my fanfiction about Elena's and Jeremy's younger sister Callia. I picture Callia to look like Victoria Justice. Please enjoy this is my first vampire diaries fanfiction so please bear with me. Set around season 3 episode 13, but will take an AU route.
She was always kept in the dark, she didn't know what her brother and sister was getting themselves into everyday of their lives. They never told her anything. This is the story of Callia Gilbert the younger sister that never knew anything until a certain original makes himself known to her.
Callia watched from the stairs as Elena talked in hushed voices to Stefan and Damon. They did this a lot but Callia just stayed out the way, it was her older sisters business not hers. Plus she was still annoyed at her for sending Jeremy to Denver and not telling her why. She was never told anything about everything that went on with Elena; she didn't know how Aunt Jenna had died or how Mr Saltzman had ended up living in her house. Elena had only told her that it was for the best, she was sixteen, she wasn't a kid anymore but obviously Elena saw different.
Every time someone knocked on the door or phoned Callia was sent upstairs to her room or told to go to a friend's house. Elena kept her out of the way of everything that went on with her and it upset Callia, Elena was her sister she could tell her anything. All Callia knew was that Stefan was her boyfriend and now he isn't and that Elena had kissed Damon on the porch after she looked out her bedroom window at the wrong time. Clearly her sister was keeping a lot from her.
She, Jeremy and Elena had been so close then after their parents had died they had drifted apart and Callia drifted into the background. Sometimes Jeremy would come into her room and give her a cuddle after her having a breakdown but that was it nothing else. Then Elena had got a boyfriend and Jeremy had started to do drugs and things started to change again. She hardly saw either of them and she was left alone with only Aunt Jenna for company most nights, unless she went out with her friends.
Callia was a complete double of her sister even though they were not really sisters due to Elena being adopted Elena was still Callia's cousin. She had the same brown eyes and the same brown hair that hung straight to her elbows. She had the same tan complection and she stood tall at around 5ft 6 inches. A slim figure matching her sisters. But looking the same never defined them being the same people.
''Callia! What the hell are you doing sat on the stairs I told you to stay in your room!'' Elena snaps at her bringing Callia from her thoughts.
''I was bored. You can't keep doing this Elena sending me up to my room everytime someone comes over.'' Callia snapped back standing up from her seat on the stairs.
Elena huffs and gives her sister a sympathetic look ''I know you don't like it. But trust me it is for the best,'' Elena says with a kind smile ''you wanna come to a ball tonight? A new family moved to town I'd love to play dress up with my little sister.'' Elena smirks at Callia knowing the answer already.
Callia rolls her eyes and huffs ''I'd love too! Plus you know I can't refuse wearing a pretty dress.'' Callia smiles.
''Plus it will be a good way for me to make it up to you about Jeremy.'' Elena sighs.
Callia ducks her head holding back the frustration and inhales a deep breath. ''Thank you Elena. Where did Damon and Stefan go?'' She asks.
''Oh they left. Come on upstairs lets get you ready!'' Elena demands pushing Carria up the stairs.
...
Callia emerges from her room in a long deep red strapless silk dress with silver sparkly heels with a peep toe. Her hair hangs half up half down with lose bits of hair hanging down the side of her face. Her makeup is simple but upon her lips she has deep red lipstick. She looks radiant. Elena emerges from her room at the same time wearing a beautiful black strapless gown, her hair hanging down one side and her makeup is simple also; the sisters look breath taking.
''Let's go to the ball Elenaderella.'' Carria mocks playfully.
Elena laughs at her sister's nickname for her.
''Why is this family throwing a ball anyway?'' Carria asks.
Elena sighs ''let's just say they like to make an entrance.'' Elena says.
Carria frowns but says nothing else as they walk towards Elena's car.
No conversation is spoken between the sisters as they travel to the new family's home. Carria's mouth drops open as she takes in the house in front of her; it's huge and so modern with a huge drive. With the help of the car door Carria gets out of the car, linking arms with her sister they walk towards the main entrance of the exqusite building standing before them.
When the doors fly open revealing the sisters every head turns towards them taking in the spectactular view in front of them. The Gilbert sisters have arrived.
