Silence.


Disclaimer: since I'm so lazy this disclaimer will be the only one I write for the entire story. I own nothing in this story except the plot and my amazing OC.:3

Author's Note: Ok so I've been watching the Vampire Diaries and all these amazing story ideas have popped into my head so I decided to write one of them! I will be trying to write my Twilight story also but since it's been such a long time since I've even read it I'm kind of not inspired so I may just put it on hiatus. Oh and this story begins at the beginning of 3X15. I think that's about it so…ON WITH THE STORY! :D

Absolute silence leads to sadness. It is the image of death.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau


Ever since Elena had lied to Elijah about the deal she made with Esther she felt as if she owed him so much more than just the truth. This is why she stands in the middle of the Mystic Falls' cemetery waiting for him to show up for their meeting she requested. She had call him earlier begging for him to meet with her as soon as possible and as far away from his mother as possible. Elijah was too good of a person and she couldn't just sit back and watch him be killed.

"Elena." Elijah's soft voice spoke quietly from behind her.

Elena spun around quickly to face the Original Vampire. "Elijah, I'm so sorry." Tears began to fall down her face. "I lied…Esther…she's planning something big." Elijah's eyes softened as he saw the turmoil unfolding in the human's eyes. "She casted a spell at the ball, she linked you and your siblings together as one."

"I knew she was planning something. There was no way she would just want to bring the family back together, no strings attached."

"She's going to kill Klaus, and when she does you all are going to die with him."

Before Elena could blink Elijah was in front of her pulling her into a tight hug.

"Klaus has to die Elena, if I have to give my soul to see that his death happens then so be it."

"No." Elena spoke, her voice full of conviction, "Don't say that. I love you Elijah," she pulled back from Elijah's embrace and looked him straight in the eyes. "You will NOT die. We will find a way to change the curse or something. Klaus deserves to die, not you."

Elijah leaned in and gave Elena a quick kiss on the forehead then pulled away from her altogether. "Call Bonnie," he commanded "we are going to need a witch if we want to stand any kind of chance against my mother."

Elena nodded then pulled her phone out to call her best friend. However, before Elena could press the call button Elijah placed a hand on her cheek and smiled down at her.

"I love you too."


MEANWHILE…

Damon sat at the bar located in the Mystic Falls Grill drinking his sorrows away. Ever since the ball Damon has avoided Elena like the plague. After that night he hadn't been home, deciding to go bar hoping, in hope of drinking away his broken heart and forgetting he ever cared about anyone.

During his mini breakdown, Damon had done good to steer clear of any potential company. Normally he would have just compelled some random pretty blond and take her home to have some fun but he just wasn't feeling anything.

Damon had just set down his shot glass when out of the corner of his eyes he saw someone join him at the bar. When she ordered her drink Damon couldn't help but turn and stare at her.

Her voice was soft and smooth, and had a certain appeal to it that made it seem as though she had spoken directly to him even though she clearly was speaking to the bartender.

Just from seeing her profile Damon could tell she was beautiful. Her light brown hair was cut into a choppy bob, a fair difference from the usual long hair all the girls in Mystic Falls sported. Her bangs fell halfway across her eye hiding them from his scrutiny. Her skin was the palest he had seen in his hundred and forty-five year. Damon couldn't take it anymore; he had to talk to her.

Damon cleared his throat. "Hello, I don't believe we've met before. I'm Damon Salvatore." The bartender slipped her drink across the bar; she quickly threw it back then turned towards him. As her deep forest green eyes meet his clear blue one he felt as if the wind was knocked out of his lungs.

"Hi, I'm Si." She spoke in her soft voice; a small smile crept onto her face.

"I haven't seen you around here, what brings you to the wonderful world of Mystic Falls?" he asked while leaning in closer towards her.

"Well, rumor has it that someone I've been looking for a very long time has settled down here." She too leaned closer to him.

"Who you looking for?" Damon's eye brows raised in question.

"Actually I'm looking for two people. One an old friend and one an old flame." She giggled as if this was the funniest thing she had said all day.

Damon couldn't help but smile at her childlike demeanor. "Well I know most people in this town so give me some names and I'll point you in the right direction."

"You wouldn't by chance know if Elijah Mikaelson is here I town would you?" Damon instantly pulled away from the girl.

"Now what would a pretty girl like you want with a vampire like Elijah?" Damon's flirty mood instantly evaporated at the mere thought of Elijah.

Noticing Damon's change in demeanor Si sat up straight and narrowed her eyes slightly. "I recently found out that my dear old friend Elijah has lied to me about the whereabouts of my ex-fiancé whom I've been searching for, for well over three hundred years.

Damon's eyes widened. "You're a vampire?" Si giggled again.

"Wow, you really are drunk aren't you?" In response Damon let out a little chuckle and rolled his eyes.

"Yes, well Elijah is most likely out hooking up with the girl I'm in love with."

"Hmm…yeah that sounds like Elijah, Always falling' for girls that are already spoken for." Si's lip twitched minutely thinking of her old friend.

"Humph," Damon signaled to the bartender to bring him another drink. "Now moving on, who is this ex-fiancé you've been stalking for over three hundred years?"

Si's eyes narrowed again but a smirk quickly took over her face, "Ah yes, I need to find him before he has time to find out I'm here. I believe he's shortened his name since our last …meeting…" Her eyes fell a little while saying this but quickly she looked back up at Damon and cleared her throat.

"I'm looking for Klaus."
