~AT SALVATORE BOARDING HOUSE AMBROSINE'S POV~
We had made it to the boarding house with relative ease in the car we had found when we had woken up. Right now we were in the parlour of the house waiting for Stefan to come home from the Grill. Ally and I still didn't know where Amy was and we were getting really worried. I thought back to when we woke up.
~FLASHBACK~
I felt someone shaking my shoulder. And I distantly heard someone calling my name. I'm pretty sure it was Ally.
"Go away Aleta I can tell it's still dark." She just shook me harder.
"Okay, What! Wa..." I am not in my room. I was currently lying down in the middle of a street at night. Ally was standing over me. A breeze came down the road and I shivered goose bumps going up my arms. I stand up and turn to Aleta.
"Where are we?" I asked she was just staring right behind me. Confused I turned around and I swear almost fainted by what I saw. A sign saying 'Welcome to Mystic Falls'
"Shit." I swore. Ally gave me her typical look for that. I just gave her my 'seriously' look. I looked around and went immediately tense.
"Wait where's Amy?"
"My thoughts exactly." She bit her bottom lip a tell tale sign she was nervous. I looked at the sign and saw something behind it.
"Hey what's that?" I ask pointing to the object. Ally shakes her head no and we both walk around the sign. Behind it to my shock we see what looks like a brand new volkswagen Thing. It was a dark purple almost black color. And on the hood were two suitcases One with 'Ambrosine Richards' and another with 'Aleta Emerson'. We looked at each other and on the count of three opened them and flinched. When nothing happened we looked at the cases again.
"Well, not bombs." Ally laughed slightly hysterically. We both picked out new clothes and put the suitcases into the back seats of the car. Ally was now wearing a light blue button-up shirt and white jeans. She also put on a pair of light blue heels and pulled her hair up into a messy bun. I was sporting a dark green tank-top under a purple leather jacket. Also I had put on dark blue skinny jeans and a pair of purple flats. I pulled my intensely curly hair into a single braid down my back.
"How do I look?" I ask giving a twirl. She laughs and claps for me.
"Me?" She asks. We were both trying to pretend that nothing was wrong.
"Good enough to be on Vampire Diaries." I say. We both laugh and get into the car. Ally was driving.
"Let's go find Amaris." She held out her hand and I took it. She smiled at me and I smiled back. With that we were on our way.
~END FLASHBACK~
I turned to Ally. We both had the same worried looks on our faces. We didn't see Amy the entire time we've been here. We thought that coming to the boarding house would give us some results but it only made us even more freaked. I mean we are sitting in the Salvatore Boarding House. This is all real.
I heard the door open and Ally must have to because we both turned at the sound. Only to see Stefan walk in. We all thought he was hot in TV but in real life. Oh,my...
"Who are you?" He asked. He kept looking at us weird and then looked around as if for someone else. Okay then.
"Um, hi. My name is Ambrosine and this is Aleta. You can just call me Amber and her Ally." I smiled at him reassuringly I hope. He nods and goes to introduce himself.
"Well i'm St-" I cut him off.
"Stefan Salvatore. We know." I say laughing slightly. Man he really is cute. Aleta wasn't saying anything just looking at him. Ooh, she's got it bad.
"Okay well, what can I do for you?" He crosses his arms over his chest. Which is really a signature stance for him. I was stayed from talking when we heard the rumble of a motorcycle. Ally grabbed my arm.
"Amy?" She asks me. I just shrug Amy is the only one who rides a motorcycle that we know and well, we got a car, why wouldn't she get a vehicle too? We both ran past Stefan leaving him in the room probably very confused.
We both raced out of the door to see someone parking an amazing black motorcycle. The Rider got off and turned around. She for it was a she, then took off her helmet and a sheet of white gold hair came tumbling out and a pair of extremely dark brown eyes looked at us. Ally and I streaked across the yard and practically tackled Amy.
"Amaris Jessabelle Parker where the hell! Have you been?" I yelled at her after I had stopped suffocating her.
"You know I could ask you guys the same thing Ambrosine. I mean I woke up on a street in the night all alone with a creepy suitcase and a albeit sweet but scary motorcycle of my dreams." She yelled at us.
"Wait you woke up on a street to? We woke up next to the Welcome to Mystic Falls sign, where were you?" Ally asked.
"I was up the street a little ways. Oh and I guess you guys must have woken up first the guy at The Grill when I got there said you guys had already come up here. Oh and you will never guess who I met, and who hit on me." She said skirting around us. Ally and I were frozen for a moment Before turning and going inside after her.
~AMARIS'S POV~
I walked into the boarding house just like i'd seen so many characters do so many times. Walking down the first small flight of steps I look and see Stefan sitting on the couch. I smile at him.
"It's not nice to eavesdrop on private conversations you know." I put my fingers together doing the shame on you gesture. He looked startled that I knew what he was doing but covered it quickly. Theres the 161 years of training I expected. I sat down and placed my feet in his lap. He seemed amused yet wary about my actions. Damn he is fine I thought whilst looking at him. The other two came in and widened their eyes at our positions. I smiled at them.
Despite appearances and age (me being the younger of the two), I was the adventurous one. The one who took risks. Ambrosine was next in that line. But Aleta never took risks. She liked rules and straight answers. She also always took the high road. Never did anything devious or underhanded, even if it was the easier way. In other words she was the angel who tried to shine a light on our devilish hearts.
"Hey so um, lets try the whole introduction thing again shall we?" Ally asked. Amber nodded and they both sat down on the opposite couch.
"I'm Ambrosine but you can call me Amber." She gave a little wave. He waved back.
"I am Aleta and you can call me Ally." She smiled at him ever so polite.
"And I am Amaris." I lean towards him. "You can call me anything you want." Amber clears her throat telling me to stop. "Everyone else calls me Amy though." I lean back and start playing with my hair. Stefan smiles at me and I raise an eyebrow. He then goes back to looking at Ally. She can't stop looking at him either. Ooh, Cupid move over Amaris is on the clock. I start to think up my plans.
"Well, my name is Stefan. Stefan Salvatore."
"Oh, trust me. We know." I say laughing a bit. He looks at me with those broody searching eyes. I swear my heart just skipped a beat. Ally and Amber notice our little interaction and clear their throats. I face them and mouth 'alright'. I turn back to look at Stephan.
"Okay so here's the thing. We need to stay here for reasons." Amber said.
"Can I know these reasons?" Stefan asked leaning forward some. I watched his movements almost transfixed at the moving of muscles when he rolled his shoulders. I sighed, hopefully not too loudly and answered his question.
"Nope." I popped the p. Then I thought for a minute. "Can't we just cut to the chase he'll probably let us stay here if we just tell him the truth." I ask Amber and Ally. Their eyes both went wide and Stefan turned all eyes were now on me.
"Well?"I ask done with all the staring. Well maybe not all the staring.
"Maybe we should." Ally said.
"Wait! Whoah! You, you Aleta Margaret Emerson the center of all buzzkilling of my ideas are agreeing with me?!" I take my feet off Stephen's lap and sit closer to him. "This has never happened before. We are now watching the Aleta specimen in her non-natural habitat." Stefan despite the situation smiled at me. He seemed to be a lot less serious than they make him out to be on the show but then again he doesn't know his brother is back in town yet. I look over at the other two and we have a silent conversation with our eyes. In it we deem me to be the one to say it and the extent of what we will tell them.
"Here's the deal Stefan we know that you are a 161 year old vampire, and don't worry we are not gonna tell anyone." He had recoiled from me slightly so I said the last part fast. "We also know about Elena and Katherine and Damon. I can't tell you anything more because that would be spoilers." I internally congratulated myself for the total River Song moment.
"How do you know all that?" Stefan asked.
"Like I said. Spoilers." New. Favorite. Word. Ever! But apparently not Stefan's. He stood up and walked a few steps before turning and looking at us.
"So you all know about apparently everything won't tell me how and expect me to trust you?" We all look at each other and answer in unison.
"Yes." He sighs audibly and runs a hand through his hair.
"Well then I better show you guys to your rooms." I jump up and go over to hug him.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you! Oh, sorry." I jump back when he goes rigid. Me, human. Him, struggling vampire.
~AMARIS' POV MORNING~
We had gone to bed shortly after Stefan showed us our rooms. Mine is sweet! I had not seen Ally's or Amber's yet because my room was first and if I remember it is the closest one to both Salvatore brother's rooms. So, yay me!
The walls were painted a dark red that gave the room a dark kind of glow. And there was a canopy bed in the middle against the back wall. The drapes and bedding were blood-red that matched the walls and the wood was an aged cherry. I had a desk of in one corner and a bookshelf took up an entire wall. I even had my own bathroom with a clawfoot tub and a brand new shower.
I had put all the clothes from the weird suitcase into the walk-in closet. I don't know how but that thing could hold multiple pairs of shoes along with all the dresses and shirts and pants not to mention accessories. There were even a few ballgowns for i'm guessing the ridiculous amount of balls and formal parties this town has.
At the moment I really didn't want to get up from bed. The sheets were like heaven and the mattress was just amazing! But a knock at my door forced me to get up. I probably should have asked who it was before opening the door considering I was just in short shorts and a red bra but I am stupid sometimes. So when it was Stefan on the other side of the door I just stood there like an idiot.
"Uh... Oh shit!" I dove for my new red silk robe and pulled it on quick. Stefan always the gentleman had looked away when he realized my clothing situation. My face was turning from tomato red to light pink when I turned back.
"Um, sorry I thought you were Ally or Amber." Wait that doesn't explain anything! I thought.
"It's fine I just wanted to tell you that breakfast is ready and The others are already downstairs dressed and ready." He smiled at me.
"Ready for what?" It seemed like a good question at the time but then...
"For school. Aleta found papers for enrolling in her luggage." Now it was a stupid question.
"Okay well i'm gonna get dressed. And be down in a minute." He nods and I close the door on his retreating figure.
School. We have to go to school here? I guess that would be pretty obvious but still, I mean we're in a whole different universe but hey, school is important too! I went into the closet and took out a pair of camouflage skinny jeans and a black short sleeved v-neck. I then pulled on a pair of black converse high-tops. I then went over to my vanity and put on two black cuffs and black grenade earrings.
I picked up a necklace I had found in the suitcase. It was a locket and upon inspection it was filled with vervain. The locket was in my opinion gorgeous. The chain was gold and so was the border of the locket. In the middle was a small carving of what looked like a mermaid. I clasped it around my neck.
I then applied make-up. I put on a deep red lipstick and black eyeshadow. I was glad I had painted my nails before I came here. They were black to match the rest of my outfit. I brushed my hair then just let the gold-white mass fall down in small waves. I then placed a black fedora on my head. I grabbed my camo backpack and head out the door.
When I got downstairs I saw Ally and Amber sitting with Stefan at the table eating eggs and bacon. Also on the table was some school supplies.
"Hello humans. And our lovely vampire host." I say gesturing to Stefan. He smiled a bit strained. I laugh a little and grab an apple from the bowl.
"Don't you want any of this?" Ally gestured to the food.
"No i'm good."
"Come on you need to eat more than an apple."Ally insisted.
"Mom seriously i'm fine. Not that hungry." I took a bite out of my apple and take a couple notebooks and pencils and put them in my bag. I shoulder the pack.
"Guys you gonna be long? Because i'm ready to go now." I didn't like the waiting. It annoyed me.
"No we're not going yet but you can. Even though school doesn't start for like another hour." Amber said munching on a piece of bacon. I took no time in walking out of the kitchen and into the entryway. I quickly grabbed my helmet and my jacket from the other night and sprint out to my bike.
It still wasn't exactly light out but it was brighter than last night so I could see the bike somewhat better. Let's just say I will forever enjoy riding this. I hop on and start it up. I am about to put my helmet on when I see a crow perched on Ally and Amber's car.
"Oh no Damon you are not pulling your crow and fog bullshit on me. No way. I will stake you myself. And don't think I won't." The crow flew off and I was left alone.
"Damn vampire...stupid tricks...never liked him in the first season...used Caroline like a chew toy." I muttered to myself whilst putting on my helmet. I kicked up the motor and started moving.
~SCHOOL ALETA'S POV~
I got to the school with Amber and Stefan. After much debating he had agreed to ride with us. It may get him in trouble with Elena but that would be a little fun to watch. We all climbed out of the car and started walking through the parking lot. While walking I saw that loads of people were stopping and staring at us. The dramatic entrances we were getting recently were pretty awesome.
I check my appearance just to make sure there are no flaws. I had on a red flowy skirt and a black short sleeved shirt. I also had on black lace-up heeled booties. For jewelry I had put on gold hoop earrings and a bunch of gold bands for a bracelet. Also I had found a gold bunny locket filled with vervain in my suitcase specially wrapped. Bunnies were my favorite animal. I had also applied grey-blue eyeshadow and red lipstick. My nails were painted red to match. I had straightened my hair and it fell in a sheet down to my elbows.
Nothing was wrong so I ventured forward. Amber walked next to me her curly hair in a long braid down her back. She was wearing dark blue skinny jeans and a green v-neck. She was wearing grey high-top converse. Her jewelry consisted of golden feather earrings, a gold feather ring, and a gold feather bracelet. Her necklace filled with vervain was a heart shaped locket that had a ruby in the middle and was surrounded by a pair of wings. She had put on silver eyeshadow and red lipstick she also had shiny olive-green nail polish on. We all walked in unison towards the school.
We had just gotten to the front of the parking lot when we were cut off by Amy on her motorcycle. She parked in the space right in front of us.
"Seriously Amy! You always do that it scares the shiz out of me." Amber had agreed to tone down her language. At least around me. Amy got off of her bike and took off the helmet. Her hair cascaded down and she smiled at us.
"Sorry Amber. Hope I didn't scare you Stefan." She winked at him and he smiled at her. I knew that Amy's flirting was harmless but still I couldn't help it but feel the tiniest bit jealous when he gave her those little smiles. But that was Amy, she got people to feel happy and light and dare I say enamored. She just made it look so easy to talk to guys like that. I suck at flirting. And that would be why I will lose Stefan to Elena. I sigh.
"Oh, calm down i'm sorry Ally. I won't do it again." She threw an arm around my shoulder. I leaned my head on her shoulder. People were still looking and it was starting to make me uncomfortable. Amber must have noticed because she hurried us all along.
Once inside the school it was worse. There were people everywhere talking, laughing, texting, pointing, looking, breathing. Oh god not now. I have the really embarrassing ability to faint if the center of attention. I hate crowds, with a vengeance. They freak me out, can't help it, always have. When I was little in a crowd I would scream my head off until my parents got me out of there.
"Keep calm sweetie, we're almost there." I smile at the name. Amy calls so many people sweetie. I blame River Song from that weird show she rounded a corner and said goodbye to Stefan. We went into the office and up to the receptionist. After we had gotten all our paperwork in she gave us our class schedules as if she were expecting us which was beyond weird. In any case we all had to split up and go to separate classes. I said goodbye to them and we all started our first days at Robert E. Lee High School.
