Hey guys so this would be my second VD fanfiction. Sorry to all my other readers about my slow updates, I just got this idea in my head for a new story and had to right it up!
Let me know what you guys think, Read and Review!
Don't own anything but what you don't recognise.
I sighed hearing my alarm going off, and rolled over slowly to hit the stop button, my eyelids fluttering with lack of sleep.
I wiped my eyes yawning as I peered out my bedroom window. Sundown.
The sun danced lazily along the horizon, emitting a soft orangey hue from behind the houses it looked about to engulf.
Time for work I groaned to myself with a sigh, slowly but surely I threw my blanket back and padded quickly to the small bathroom down the hall.
I looked at myself in the mirror, turquoise eyes staring back in curiosity; I had always had odd coloured eyes, ever since I was young.
I pulled my long raven curls back into a loose bun not wanting it to get wet as I tool a shower, I sighed easily again as I stepped into the warm shower and let the water flow easily over my joints relieving the tension and waking me up a little further.
I decided after 15 minutes I may as well hall ass and try and get to work on time for once.
Once I had pulled my uniform on and applied my makeup, pulling my curls back into a neat high ponytail with a white ribbon I nodded at my reflection "you will do" i said dauntingly to my reflection as if waiting for a response, before finally deciding to set out for the trek to work.
I was greeted by the usuals as I stumbled tiredly through the hotel foyer.
"Afternoon Gage," Jody the receptionist called over the counter as I passed, like she did every day.
"Morning jodes," I sung back "anything interesting been happening while I've been gone?" I said with my usual smirk.
"Oh please, you'd be the first to know if there was, although a small trio of hotties did check in before," She winked at me.
"Oh you're bad," I said playfully.
"Room 307...if you're wondering," she winked, as I broke into a fit of laughter and shook my head walking over to the elevators.
"Might see you later jode," I called as I climbed into the elevator hitting the B button for Basement, staff only.
I met with my manager a minute later and he informed me this evening I would be on calls duty that meant waiting by the phones with 2 other attendants taking people's room service orders and special requests, delivering it to them personally.
Great, my night was going to be abs-o-fucking-lutley awesome. Cue eye roll.
After three hours in the office the lines had been mostly quiet and what hadn't the other two attendants working with me had taken care of, I was doodling pointless little squares on a sheet of paper for another 30 minutes before I got an interesting phone request from one of the guests. Room 307.
Hadn't Jodie said the trio of hotties were in 307?
"Elvira hotel room services, how may I help you this evening?" I said as usual in my chirpy upbeat voice.
"Ah yes, would you mind sending up 2 cans of whipped cream, a steak. Raw, and 7 bottles of the best champagne you carry," a sexy males British voice purred back.
"Of course, coming right up sir,"
"Thanks love, oh and my sister would like the waffles with ice-cream and strawberries," he purred again.
"Of course sir, be right up with your order," I said lastly.
"Thanks love," Click. The phone line went dead, hmm sexy British accent, he was bound to be gorgeous.
2 cans of whipped cream, 1 raw steak, 7 bottles of champagne and a plate of waffles later and I was exiting the elevators on the 3rd floor, I looked around at the room numbers nervously. 301. 303. 305.
"Ah 307 here we are," I said reaching up to knock on the door but was surprised as the door swung open to reveal a perky, very gorgeous, very well dressed blonde.
"Foods here," she said in a British accent, the sister? She eyed the food hungrily and then moved the look to me, I was shocked for a moment, had I really just seen her do that?
"Well bring it in then, I don't want it getting cold," the blond demanded stamping her foot impatiently.
"ye-yes Miss," I stuttered out hurriedly before pushing the trolley into the living room.
I heard the door click shut quietly behind me and was just about to protest, when I became glued to my spot and saw them face down in a pool of blood, 3 dead bodies lying on top of each other in the middle of the living room.
Fear ran through me as I stood rigid in my spot, the whole while my mind screaming "RUN" but my body stuck with shock.
There was movement at the edge of my vision and I snapped my head to the left, on one of the plush seats sat a young man with golden brown hair smirking at me, that was not however what caught my attention, to his right was another younger looking man with short dark spiky hair, who appeared to be bitting into a young girls neck as she stood limp with her eyes shut.
What the hell was going on, I stood there with my mouth a jar trying to force something out of my throat but only silence filling my ears.
"Oh she looks yummy!" the perky blond purred from behind me.
My back became stiff again as she traced a finger along my shoulders and gave my ponytail a flick, I heard an intake of breath from behind me and her fingers dug into my shoulders.
"Rebekah, not yet!" The man sitting in the chair commanded as he swished his ice in his glass of whiskey around a couple of times.
"What? Why?" she stamped her foot with an impatient thump like that of a small child.
"because I said so," he said, never taking his eyes off me or removing the smirk from his lips "Don't touch her...yet, she looks interesting," he looked over at the dark haired man as he dropped the limp girl he'd been holding and walked straight over to me.
I began backing away but didn't get far before my back hit the one called Rebekah.
"Oh come on Klaus, she does look yummy," he said agreeing with Rebekah opening his mouth to reveal a pair of blood spattered fangs, so that was his name I thought curiously, Klaus.
"Wha-What the hell are you!" I cried out trying to break free of Rebekah's grip.
"Oh sweetheart, we're your worst nightmare," Klaus said rising from his seat quickly and walking over to us giving a flick of dismissal to the other two.
"Go and eat what I ordered," it wasn't a question.
They both gave up with a sigh before heading over to the trolley of food that I had just brought in.
"Now love," he started "Why don't we take a seat and have a nice little chat," he said trying to ushed me over to the nearest couch, i looked at the couch and then thought my plan out in my head, i had helped clean these rooms enough to know that i maybe just maybe could run around the two standing at the trolly and make a break for the door.
"No thank you," I said quickly before turning around and dashing for the door, I didn't make it more than two steps before he was in front of me again, a frown evident on his face.
The other two had looked up from their food and began snarling at me, Klaus held up a hand signalling them to stop.
"Now now children, Play nice," he commanded.
"Please," I said quietly "just let me go and I'll never mention a word to anyone, ever, please," I pleaded again.
"Oh I know you won't sweetheart," Klaus seductively spoke back, brushing a stray curl that had come loose, out of my eyes.
"Where's my Strawberries," Rebekah demanded from behind Klaus.
"I-I must of forgot them, I'm sorry, if you just let me go down stairs I can get you as many as you'd like," I tried to play.
"Okay" "NO" Klaus and Rebekah both spoke at the same time.
"Nik! I want my strawberries! If I can't have her to eat then the least you could give me is my damn strawberries! Please brother? Just compel her, she'll come right back," Klaus sighed at this.
"Fine," he said looking at me intensely right in the eyes.
"Go straight there, grab the strawberries and come straight back," Klaus said holding my eye contact a little too intensely, I faltered for a second.
"Okay," I said finally, letting out a small sigh as I moved around Klaus and was about to head straight for the door.
"Wait," the dark hair boy spoke up, I stopped in my tracks "She's not compelled," He looked at me, Klaus's head snapped to my face.
"Of course she is Stefan, I am an original, Please, I can do anything," he spoke cockily in retort.
"If you want to take the chance then sure, but I don't believe she is compelled," the man I now knew as Stefan finished with a shrug at Klaus.
Klaus eyed me for a second as I stood glued to my spot, sweat starting to perspire on my forehead.
"Let's test it out," Rebekah said spooning a heap of ice-cream into a mouth before dropping her spoon and walking right up to me, looking at me straight in the eyes like Klaus had.
"Go to the balcony, climb up the railing and jump," She said to me slowly, a sadistic smile playing on her lips.
"Rebekah," Klaus scolded, she turned to him with a sweet smile.
"If she is, she'll jump, if she's not she won't," she shrugged looking at me, all of their gazes fell to me, I had to think quickly, I slowly turned and walked to the balcony, opening the slider door and stepping out, grabbing the railing, my hands shook, I didn't hear them come up behind me so I jumped in shock when I heard Rebekah's voice again.
"Jump," she commanded, I couldn't bring myself to climb the railing, I was struck with fear, I was also afraid of heights, and I hesitated again.
"Jump," she commanded one last time before I heard a growl behind me and was suddenly ripped from the railing and dragged by my arms back inside.
"Why can't I compel you," Klaus growled down at me.
"I-I don't know," I had no idea what he was talking about nor what I had been immune to.
"Look for a pendant, charm, bracelet, ANYTHING," Klaus bellowed at Stefan, Stefan slowly walked over to me and began looking from the locket around my neck to the watch and bracelet on my wrist; he slowly undid them and took them off me, then asked me kindly.
"Are you wearing any other jewellery?" his eyes had softened, I shook my head.
"Compel her again then!" Rebekah commanded, Stefan turned to look at me again.
"Go to the balcony and Jump," He said slowly with the intense look in his eyes, I shook my head, a tear running down my face, he sighed at this and Rebekah became angrier by the second, Stefan turned to Klaus.
"The only other thing I can think is Vervain in her blood, but I'd have to taste it to know," he said looking at Klaus for approval, he nodded his head.
"Only a taste," he looked at me and I looked up at him in fear.
"Give me your wrist," Stefan commanded, I slowly handed it to him, he looked at it for a second before pulling it up to his mouth and before I knew what he was doing or could stop him he bit down, I screamed out in pain but it was only short lived after he let go a minute later.
"There's no Vervain in her blood," Klaus looked shocked "Taste it if you don't believe me," he offered up to the man, Klaus just shook his head.
"What are you," he said looking at me in the eyes.
"Im-im human? what the hell are you?" I said to him with confusion.
"Stefan what human have you ever heard of that can be immune to an originals compulsion," Klaus asked seriously, ignoring my question again before turning to me.
"None," said Stefan quickly "It's never been heard of," he looked at me curiously, they were all looking at me curiously now, Klaus walked over to the liquor cabinet and poured himself another scotch before taking a seat in the chair again.
"She'll come with us," he said to the other two "and no one gets to eat her," he said finally, Stefan nodded quickly in understanding but Rebekah sighed and stamped her foot.
"No fair," She said growled.
"You heard me bekah," She rolled her eyes at Klaus.
"Can I at least play with her then," Klaus contemplated this for a second but after looking at me and seeing the pleading fear stricken look in my eyes that she wouldn't, he smirked and shook his head at his sister.
"Urgh, you're no fun," she huffed before grabbing her food before walking into one of the 3 bedrooms in the hotel suite.
"Take a seat love, I'm not going to hurt you," Klaus said signalling to the couch as Stefan had already taken it upon himself to sit on the end; I hesitated for a second before finally slowly taking a seat next to Stefan.
"What's your name," Stefan said curiously turning to me.
"Emlyn-Gage Lila Aspen, but people just call me Gage," I said carefully to him.
"What a Beautiful name," Klaus spoke up from his chair, startling me with his gentleness "Tell me Gage, do you have a family?" He said gently again, I was taken off guard for a second by this question and the thought of my family made my eyes flash with sadness, I shook my head.
"No, I don't," his eyes saddened at this.
"What happened to them?" he asked carefully again.
"My dad never wanted me and my mum was a drug addict that overdosed, I'm an only child and my parents never took me to meet any of my other family, so no I'm completely alone," I finished, tears starting to form in my eyes, I frowned and pushed them back before finally looking up at Klaus.
"No matter, you have a new family now," he smiled kindly at me, I looked at him confused for a second " You're going to come with us," he said finally, I opened my mouth to protest but Stefan putting a soft hand on my shoulder, shook his head.
"It's that or die," Stefan said I looked at him scared, Klaus rose from his seat.
"Stefan, go check on my sister will you?" Klaus asked Stefan, it was more like an order, with a nod of his head he was gone in the blink of an eye.
"What are you?" I asked carefully not wanting to make Klaus angry; he turned to me with a small smile.
"Oh sweetheart, I'm special," he smirked walking over to me and bending down in front of me taking my hands in his gently, his touch was cold and I frowned down at his hands.
"What if I told you I could give you everything your heart desired?" the question took me off guard again; my gaze remained down at his hands cupping mine, I thought about the question for a second before quickly dismissing it.
"I'd say, you were either lying, or crazy," He laughed at this and it took me off guard yet again, his voice was soft and sweet.
"Love, there's no need to fear me I'm not going to hurt you, quite the opposite actually, I'm going to give you the life that you could only dream of," I finally looked up at him, his eyes were the deepest blue and his hair was the most golden brown, he was quite gorgeous to look at and the look in his eyes seemed sincere.
"And what's the catch," I said with a bit too much attitude back, he smirked at this.
"No catch, I just want you to co-operate with me and do as I say," he reached up and touched my cheek softly, brushing his thumb in a circle, I tried to pull away from his touch but he cupped my face with a strong hand, forcing me to look at him.
"Yes or No?" he asked finally, completely serious this time, I thought about it for a second, it was either take his offer, or end up like the people in the middle of the living room laying in their own blood, dead.
"Yes," I finally said, he smiled widely at this.
"I knew you were smart," he pulled his hand away from my face and quickly rose.
"Come with me sweetheart," he said softly pulling me by the hand "for now I think you need to rest, I'll take care of everything else, you have a big day tomorrow," he purred as he pulled me towards one of the lavish rooms, I hesitated for a second, causing him to look at me, I looked quickly at the bedroom and then back at him, he smirked at this.
"My intentions are not what you think they would be love, just go to sleep," he pulled me to the bed and waited for me to climb up, I slowly took my shoes off and climbed up into the soft lavish bed, he pulled the covers up over me and I laid there finally releasing a sigh, he smiled down at me.
"Goodnight little one, Sweet Dreams," He bent down quickly and placed a kiss on my forehead, my skin warm where his lips had touched, I looked at him slowly before my eyelids slid shut, I hadn't even realised I'd been tired.
I had absolutely no idea what I was going to do, I started getting sleepier and my thoughts started changing, It was just all a seriously vivid, screwed up dream and I was going to wake up from it and everything was just going to be normal and none of this will have actually happened, wont it?
