Ok so my sister has recently introduced me to the Vampire Diaries and I have to say I am well and truly hooked. Now although this isn't my first fan fiction story, it is my first Vampire Diaries story, so please bear with me. I hope you like my idea and I would appreciate any kind of feed back.
Elena has just found out about Stefan being a vampire and Bonnie being a witch.
The couples in my story are Elena/Stefan, Bonnie/Jeremy and Tyler/Caroline.
Matt and Damon are both single and Damon is still up to his womanizing ways.
Claus and Rebekah haven't become involved in my story yet and Jenna is still alive.
So that's the basics, here it goes…
Chapter 1: Haunted by faces.
Bonnie and Elena were supposed to be picking out outfits for the founders ball, but here they were sat on Elena's bed as Bonnie showed Elena her newest trick.
Elena watched in shock as her best friend elevated some feathers off the pillow of her bed "Oh my god" Elena gasped "When did you…?"
"Grams has been showing me a few things" Bonnie grinned proudly as she slowly put the feathers back on the pillow "It's here way of easing me into it gently"
"I still can't believe all this is happening, my best friend is a witch and my boyfriend is a vampire" Elena sighed as she stood up from her bed and moved towards her wardrobe.
"I know talk about brothers Grimm" Bonnie smiled "It's so weird I have been in denial about my powers for so long and now I know what it is I just want to embrace them"
"I thought you said your Grams was easing you in gently" Elena frowned as she pulled out a white dress; Bonnie screwed up her face and shook her head. Elena put the dress back inside her wardrobe instantly and continued to look through the clothes.
"Yes she is but it doesn't mean I'm not eager to learn" Bonnie replied "It's not just about the spells though I've still got so much to learn about our ancestors and the legends behind…" suddenly Bonnie went silent as she heard someone approaching Elena's door.
There was a gentle knock as Jenna's voice came through the door "Elena, Stefan's here"
"What he's here now" Elena exclaimed as Jenna opened the door "What does he want?" Elena could feel the butterflies in her stomach.
"I don't know, I'm not a mind reader Elena" Jenna frowned as she watched her niece get flustered "Maybe you should ask him for yourself, now would be a good time Elena you can't leave him stood down there forever"
Stefan couldn't help the smile that was creeping across his face as he heard the conversation between Elena and her Aunt; this was one of the plus sides of being a vampire super-sensitive hearing.

After a few moments of gathering herself Elena finally plucked up the courage to go downstairs "Stefan Hi" Elena smiled awkwardly "Is there something wrong, you weren't meant to be picking me up until 7"
"No everything fine, I just couldn't go another moment without seeing you" Stefan smiled as he pulled Elena towards him.
"Stefan stop it" Elena giggled as she watched Jenna disappear into the kitchen "I'm sure you can manage a couple more hours"
"Yeah I guess, but that's not the only reason I'm here" Stefan frowned, Elena could see he was uncomfortable "I was wondering if Bonnie had mentioned anything about her ancestors?"
"No, she hasn't learned anything like that yet, her Grams is trying to ease her into the whole witch thing slowly. Why?" Elena was now curious.
"No reason" Stefan lied almost convincingly "Right well I'd better go I'd see you at 7" he replied before kissing Elena's lips and finally disappearing out of the front door.

Bonnie watched Elena walk back into her bedroom "What did he want?" she wondered. Bonnie still felt uneasy about Stefan being a vampire.
"Nothing, he just asked me about your ancestors" Elena replied "Hey what do you think of this one?" she added as she pulled a purple dress out of her wardrobe.

Later that evening Bonnie was getting ready for the ball at her house, she was just putting on her necklace when her Grams walked in "You look beautiful" she smiled.
"Thanks Gram's" Bonnie smiled "I still don't see why you can't come too"
"You know why?" Sheila frowned "I'm sorry, you have so much to learn yet Bonnie, it's hard for you to understand right now"
"I know" Bonnie smiled weakly "Hey Grams, Stefan asked Elena about my ancestors earlier, why would he want to know about us?"
"He'll be wanting to know if I have told you about Abigail" Sheila replied.
"Abigail?" Bonnie was confused "Was she a Bennett witch?"
"Yes she was a Bennett witch who followed her heart to dark places" Sheila's voice seemed reluctant to continue "You should go; you will be late for your party"
Bonnie didn't argue with her grandmother she realised she wasn't happy talking about Abigail.

Elena was less than impressed when she and Stefan arrived at the Lockwood house to find Damon already enjoying the party "I thought you said he wasn't coming?" Elena muttered under her breath.
"It's tradition for the towns founders to be at the ball" Damn interrupted smugly "And who am I to argue with tradition, you look hot by the way Elena" he grinned before walking away arrogantly.
"I could happily hate him if he wasn't your brother" Elena snarled as she watched Damon move on to another unsuspecting female.
"Hey don't let him being my brother stop you" Stefan smiled "I don't, and he was right by the way you do look hot" he added as he stared at Elena who was looking stunning in a short plum colored mini dress, her hair was down and straight and she was also wearing black peep toe sandals.
"Thank you" Elena felt her cheeks burning; she tried to hide her face from Stefan. He couldn't hide his smirk.

As the night progressed and drinks were well and truly flowing a very mysterious guest arrived at the Lockwood House, she was around 5 ft 8, with black hair which was pulled back into a bun and olive coloured skin, she was wearing a red floor length dress and gold strap sandals.
"Who is that?" Mrs Lockwood asked her husband who was obviously impressed with the stranger.
"You must be Mrs Lockwood" the woman extended her hand for Mrs Lockwood to shake.
"Yes, I'm sorry I don't recall seeing your face…" Mrs Lockwood was still trying to work out who this stranger was "Have you been here before?" even though she knew she recognised her.
"Yes I come every year but this is the first time I have introduced myself, my names Abigail…Abigail Bennett" the woman smiled.
x-x-x
Elena watched curiously as Stefan's head turned instantly to face the stranger who was stood talking to Mr and Mrs Lockwood a few metres away. Elena also noticed Damon's head had turned, although Damon looked horrified.
"Stefan who is she?" Elena asked as she regained Stefan's attention "Why is Damon looking at her like that?"
"Er…lets just say our lives have suddenly become extremely interesting" Stefan said as he continued to watch his brother whose eyes were still fixated on Abigail.

Damon had watched Abigail talk to the guests at the Founder's Ball for almost an hour. She moved so effortlessly between them talking and charming them all. As Abigail finished talking to a middle aged man, Damon took this as his chance to approach Abigail "Well I have to say I am wounded" Damon frowned with a cocky grin "You have been here for over an hour and haven't even made the effort to talk to me yet"
"I have nothing to say to you" Abigail frowned as she tried to walk away but Damon stopped her by grabbing her arm "Let go" Abigail warned as she pulled away. Damon paused for a few moments and suddenly thought better of his grip on Abigail when he remembered what she was capable of.
"So I heard you introduce yourself as Abigail Bennett, really Abigail?" Damon sighed; Abigail could tell he was trying to toy with her.
"I'm immune to your games Damon, and as for the name I've been calling myself that for quite some time now" Abigail returned Damon's mischievous grin, even though she hated him she couldn't help but smile at his cockiness "It was the name I was born with after all"
"Fair enough" Damon shrugged before turning to look for his brother, as he looked back to Abigail she had disappeared. Damon watched as Stefan and Elena approached him.
"What did she want, why is she here?" Stefan asked anxiously "I hope she isn't here to cause trouble for us"
"Relax little brother" Damon sighed as he sipped from his whiskey glass "I doubt Abigail has any quarrels with you"
"Abigail" Elena repeated "Hang on weren't you asking Bonnie about an Abigail earlier today?" Elena quickly turned to face Stefan, who realised Bonnie must have realised who he was talking about. "Is she the same…"
"Yeah that's her" Stefan replied causing Damon to throw him a glance "That's Abigail Bennett…or more recently known as Abigail Salvatore"
"Salvatore?" Elena was even more confused now "Is she a relative?" Elena watched as Damon disappeared into the crowd as though he didn't want to stick around for the rest of the conversation.
"Yes you could say that" Stefan replied "The woman you just saw was Damon's wife…"
