Hey peeps,

hope you enjoy! :-)


Hi, I'm Selena Casilona Hastings, I know my name is seriously long but hey, can't blame me blame my parents. I'm 21 years, a new doctor. I finshed school a little earlier than most, when I was 15 and finished my training this year. I've lived in England my whole life. My life was pretty normal until I met him... Elijah Mikelson. He was so noble and perfect and obviously like an idiot I fell for him. Then I found out he was just using me, to break his brother Nicklaus's curse. Incase you're wondering yep, I'm a doppleganger. I have that same face, the one that Nicklaus, Elijah and many more keep falling for. I don't get it, why of all people did it have to be me. I had my life all planned out ahead of me. So I managed to get away and he returned to America. Anyways, something happened and a lookalike called Elena Gilbert saved me the trouble of having to die. Elijah returned and apologised, somehow he managed to melt my stone cold heart and we're back to square one. He's going back to America and he asks me to come with him this time...


"So Selena Hastings, what will your answer be?" He asks extending his hand towards me. Elijah is kneeling on one knee beside my chair at a fancy restaurant. My cheeks turn a crimson colour, and I turn my face away from him trying to hide my embarrassment.

"... Yes, yes I would love to go with you." I say smiling and accepting his hand. He stands up and pulls me into his embrace.

The next day, I'm sitting on the plane with Elijah, I nervously strap my seat belt and take a deep breath.

"Are you scared?" He says resting his hand on mine.

I look at him surprised and confused what he means by this. "Of what the plane, going to America, or you?" I ask.

"Of going to an unknown country, where you won't know anyone but me." He says an unusual tension fills the air.

"No, not really, besides if I do get into trouble, promise me you won't blame yourself. Unless of course, I die because you can't control your hunger and eat me, because in that case it's your fault." I say teasing him. His lips curve into a wry smile and he stares ahead then at the ground.

"I assure you I won't spiral into that murderous monster like in the past."

"I know, I was just joking." I say, interrupted by the pilots announcements, we get ready for take off and I'm stuck on that plane for another 11 hours. "By the way, where are going in America?"

"New Orleans, I'm going to introduce you to my family."

"Wait.. does that mean Klaus will..." I ask trying to hide my paranoia.

"Yes, but do not be alarmed, he won't lay a finger on you." He places his hand on top of mine to reassure me. Strangely enough it works, and I rest my head on his shoulder, slowly falling asleep.


(Elijah's Pov)

She's falls asleep on my shoulder and I don't pull away. A strange feeling stirs inside me, she gets my heart racing in a way I don't understand. What's so special in her, and Tatia and Katerina, that they all make me break down my walls and let me fall hard for them.

I snap back into reality and it's time to leave, I wake up Selena and we step into New Orleans. I'm greeted by my brother Nicklaus at the airport. He never fails to surprise me, just today is not a time to be playing games...


(Back to Selena)

We're about to leave the airport and we bump into Nicklaus. He kisses my hand to greet me and I accept his apology for almost trying to kill me and we start over.

I'm introduced to Rebekah and we become good friends. I settle into this new life and soon I know the place very well. But I sense this unusual tension in the air, as if they're hiding something from me. For weeks now Elijah keeps going out and I'm home alone with Klaus, considering Rebekah keeps going back to Virginia to meet a guy called Matt, who is apparently a super cute jock who she has a crush on, but I'm not supposed to tell. I sense some trouble between Marcel and Klaus because they keep meeting secretly and sometimes I can hear their voices even without having heightened senses and what not.

But I'm happy Klaus isn't being a jerk, to me and I think we're becoming good friends. Just the other day we were painting together because I love to paint and draw, and surprisingly he does too, so we end up spending the whole afternoon together. He showed me some off his favourite places in town to give me inspiration and I take a liking to this bar down town and I decide to check it out a few days later.

I'm drinking in a bar and meet a girl called Sophie who is a witch and her friend so Camile. Then all of a sudden Sophie starts shouting to her phone in the corner and I get curious. I decide to follow her to a cemetery. There I see a girl with dark brown hair and wide eyes. She goes by the name Haley. Apparantly she's pregnant, with Klaus's child. I manage to make out a few words, such as baby, witches, practice freely and kill. I move to get a better hearing but I end up revealing my self by tripping over a grave and falling onto the solid, cold concrete. I look up to see Elijah and Klaus, they must have been the people she was talking to, there aswell and suddenly all eyes fall on me...


"I see your friend here likes to eavesdrop on other people's conversations!" Remarks Sophie.

"What are you doing here?" Asks Elijah, holding a fearsome gaze on me.

"So what if she is, why can't she know?" Challenges Klaus.

"I do not wish to involve her in our family matters. You know very well how things end up when too many people get involved." Reasons Elijah.

"Well you should have thought about that before you brought her here." Retorts Nicklaus.

"Does someone want to tell me what's going on?" Say me and Haley. "Who are you?" We say in unison again.

"Okay, stop copying my words, it's getting weird and Elijah, why can't I know?" I say utterly confused.

"This woman is telling us she's pregnant with my child and this woman is threatening us to get freedom for the witches in the French quarter or she'll kill my child." Explains Klaus gesturing to Haley and Sophie.

"And Nicklaus refuses to believe it's his child." Adds Elijah.

"There is no child it's just a lie to get me to help them!" Yells Klaus. Sophie leaves with Haley and the brothers continue fighting.

"Well, is there a possibility it could be... Nicklaus?" I say cupping his face in my hands forcing him to look me in the eye.

"..."

"Answer me." I say gazing into his eyes. He pulls away and runs off at lightning speed. " I'm taking that as a yes." I say turning to face Elijah. "I think he knows it is, but he doesn't know how to react... And maybe we should give him sometime. Meanwhile Elijah, could you help Sophie get what she wants?"

"I can take us halfway, but to gain control of the French quarter we'll have to deal with Marcellus. And Klaus is the only one who can reason with him." He says.

"Well then we have to take that chance, we must protect this baby at all costs."

"I will, but when Klaus isn't prepared to fight what reason should we?" He asks. I force myself to meet his gaze and take a deep breath.

"When I lost our child I was crushed. Even though it was your child too and I hated that, it almost killed me. It took away my reason to live. I don't want anyone to have to go through that feeling, not when it could be prevented." I say, just talking about this forms tears in my eyes. He pulls me into his embrace and I bury my head in his chest crying and thinking about what could have been.

We head back home and I see Klaus painting something. Something about him painting, seems to captivate me, and I end up watching him from the other side of the door. Elijah has gone to reason with Sophie and bring Haley to stay with us. The doorbell rings and I rush to the door. Haley and Elijah are standing there with an umbrella to shade them from the rain.

"Welcome to your new home, is it Haley?" I say stepping aside to give her room.

"Yeah, and um, thanks..." She says entering the house, Elijah follows. We sit down with a cup of coffee and Elijah locks himself in his room like Klaus has. We talk and get to know each other, more. She tells me a bit about my lookalike Elena Gilbert. And apparently she's nothing like me and quite a bitch. She's playing around with two brothers, and everyone acts like she's some goddess who always needs protecting above everyone else. So yeah, you can imagine my opinion on her after hearing this.


10 months later... I'm a vampire...


OMG!

I wonder how that happened!
