disclaimer: I don't own the Vampire Diaries and won't ever, even though I would love to take both Salvatore's away from Elena. But I do own my character: Carly Donovan, Matt's twin sister, who looks like Damon's very first love, before Katherine. (No she's not a Petrova Doppelganger she's a different kind of doppelgänger but not one that's needed lmao!)
Author's Note: I'm new to this site, and this is my first story, it's a Damon/OC and honestly I don't know how I'm going to really go with this but hey, it will follow the storyline: It starts from the Pilot episode and I hope you enjoy my story, let me know what you think. A little twist in this chapter. I imagine Carly as Victoria Justice
Thank you: Kira Tsumi for your review on the last chapter and thanks to who have favourited/followed my story so far, glad you like it.
Chapter 2: Night of the Comet
Vicki had been out most of the night, she'd been tossing and turning, whimpering in her sleep, Matt and I had been told she'd be in for another night and let out tomorrow. I hadn't slept a wink but I still managed to get to school. I was sitting in the class, not even paying attention to what Tanner was saying. My eyes fluttered and I shut them.
"Am I boring you Miss Donovan?" A voice asked.
I opened an eye and shrugged "Not much sleep" I muttered staring at him. Hadn't everyone in the town heard about Vicki?
"Maybe you should go to bed earlier and stop drinking late at night out in the woods" He said smugly. I narrowed my eyes at him, ok so I wasn't usually the "Bitchy" type when it came to teachers, I was well behaved and did have a mouth on me. But I was in too much of bad mood to let him annoy me today.
"My sister was attacked by an animal last night" I snapped "Sorry for worrying about her and making sure she was y'know not dead" I got up and stormed out of the classroom."Dick" I muttered as I slammed the door. I sat outside in the sun and put my arms on the table bench and put my head on my arms.
"You okay?" A voice asked. Elena. How long had my eyes been shut for?
"Yeah" I muttered.
"How is she?" Elena asked.
"They're keeping her in over night to make sure there's no infection" Another voice said. I looked up seeing Matt who stared at Elena and then at me. I let my head fall back to the table with a thump. "She should be able to come home tomorrow"
I lifted my head again and nodded, following the two of them.
"Well that's good news" Elena said.
"Yeah" Matt said.
"Did you guy's get in touch with your mom?" She asked. Oh Elena dear why would you ask such a silly question?
"Called and left a message" Matt said and I rolled my eyes.
"She's in Virgina beach with her boyfriend, so...we'll see how long it takes her to come rushing home" I said.
"Vicki's lucky she's ok" Elena said.
"I know and now there's talk of some missing camper's" Matt said.
"Did she say what kind of animal it was that attacked her?" Elena asked.
"She said it was a vampire" I said shrugging.
"What?" Elena asked.
"Yeah, she wakes up last night and mutters "Vampire" and then passes out" I said.
"Ok, that's weird" Elena said.
"I think she was drunk" Matt said "So...what's up with you and the new guy?"
"Matt, the last thing I want to do is hurt you"
"I'm going back to the hospital" I said and walked away from them.
"Wait Carly!" Matt's voice shouted and I stopped when he caught up to me.
"What?"
"I'm coming too, I wanna be there when she wakes up"
We got to the hospital and waited for a while and Vicki woke up, she gasped and sat up.
"Whoa! Vick. Vicki, hey what's wrong?" I asked.
"It's Matt and Carly. Vicki what is it?!"
She started wailing her arms around "No! No! Get off! No! No! No!" She screamed.
"Nurse!" Matt called.
"Vicki calm down!" I said.
"No!" She said and she hit my arm and I moved back and went out of the room as I got to the door something brushed past me. What was that? I turned seeing nothing there but my sister being an absolute psycho. I went out of the room and then stopped when I heard talking. I shook my head and then moved to see Matt coming back with the nurse, and something brushed past me again...it was like a blur.
When we went back into the room Vicki was asleep, I stared at her. How the hell had that happened?
"She seems fine"
Matt looked out of the hospital room and then vanished. I sat on the chair and rubbed my eyes, I was that tired I was hallucinating. Just then my phone began vibrating and I answered it.
"Hello?" I asked.
Nothing but silence. "Hello?! Is anyone there? Tyler if that's you you're not funny"
No answer so I hung up and went into the room. I sat on the chair and my eyes shut for a minute, and then felt something being thrown at me. I jerked awake and looked around for a minute before my eyes landed on Vicki and Matt.
"Finally you're awake" Vicki said.
"How are you feeling?" I asked. "You had us freaked with all your screaming"
"What are you talking about?" She asked.
"You don't remember?" I asked and looked to Matt, who shrugged.
"I feel fine" She said.
"Good" I said rubbing my eyes.
"However you don't look so good Car"
"I'm fine" I said "What attacked you last night Vicki?"
She hesitated "An animal, what else could it have been?"
I went to talk when a figure caught my eye and I turned to see Jeremy.
"Hey how do you feel?" He asked.
"I'm OK" She said with a nod.
"I...we're gonna...go grab a coffee, come on Car" Matt said nodding towards the door. I nodded and stood "Hey Jer"
"Hi Jeremy" I muttered as we walked out past him.
"You think there's something going on with them?" Matt asked as we walked down the corridor.
I shrugged "Dun'o...thought she was dating Tyler" I said.
Matt shook his head "My best friend and my sister...it's weird"
"Oh really? My best friend and my brother...huh" I said and he shoved me. I laughed, maybe things would get better...
The next night, Vicki was out, she was working. I'd tried to get her not to but she'd ended up having to because of her boss...ass that he was. I was standing with Elena, Matt, Tyler, Caroline and Bonnie, Elena had went to the boarding house yesterday to talk to Stefan..and ended up meeting his brother Damon. Why did I recognise that name? I shook my head at the thought.
"Hey" She said with a smile.
"Hey" he replied.
"Thank you" She said as he lit her candle.
"You're welcome" Matt replied.
Elena moved and her candle then lit someone else's I looked at his face to see Stefan.
"Thank you, Hi" He said.
"Hi" She said and she looked round and Matt and then at me. I made a face at her, telling her not to worry.
"Is anybody else hungry?" Bonnie asked.
"Me" I said "I'm starving"
"I don't see how" Tyler said with a grin "You ate a burger no more than thirty minutes ago, you don't want to get fat"
"Hmph" I huffed, smiling though and pointed a finger at him "You can't talk. You ate a burger, fries and then ice cream Lockwood..anybody's gonna get fat it's you.."
"Nah, see these Abs Donovan I work out" He winked.
I rolled my eyes "Yeah..you see this fist? It's gonna go in your face"
"Ohhhhhh" He smirked waving his arms around.
Tyler and I had always had this sort of relationship, he was like an older brother but he was really, really annoying and he was so arrogant that it disturbed me, but we got along just fine.
"I'm gonna go to the grill and see Vicki, I'll get you guy's over there" I said with a nod and walked to the Grill. I went in and seen a raven haired man at the bar and then walked over to see Vicki. I smiled at her and she grinned back.
I sat on the stool and she stared at me "What are you doing?" She asked.
"I'm hungry" I said shrugging. She laughed and then pointed at me.
"You're always hungry"
I shrugged "I haven't eaten much...hospital food is disgusting"
"I know that Car, I was the one that had to eat it" she said.
"Ha" I snorted and she went to walk past but stopped and glanced at the raven haired man.
"I know you" She said and I looked at her.
"Well that's unfortunate" He said and he looked at me. He was Damon. I knew I knew him from somewhere.
"Im...I don't...I don't how, but...your face. Excuse me, sorry" Vicki said and stalked off.
I watched her go and then turned back to Damon "You're Damon...right?"
"Yes" He smirked.
"I remember you from the other night" I said.
"Carly?" He asked raising an eyebrow.
"Yeah" I nodded. "I'm sorry about my sister...she's...just got out of hospital"
"That's your sister?"
"Yeah"
"What happened to her?"
"Animal attack" I said nodding.
"Oh sorry to hear that"
"Nah it's cool...she's ok" I laughed.
"Well it was nice meeting you again" He said and he kissed the top of my hand "But I better go, people to torment"
I raised an eyebrow "Torment? "
"My brother"
"Stefan" I said.
"That would be him, excuse me" He said with a smile.
He left and I sat, then seeing everyone else come into the Grill and I walked over to them, I pulled Elena to the side.
"I met Damon" I said.
"You..met Damon?"
"Yeah..he was here, like ten minutes ago"
"Wow.."
"He's hot" I said.
Elena laughed "Shut up" She said and we joined the others.
After half an hour Jeremy came rushing in.
"Hey, has anyone seen Vicki?" He asked.
"You're her stalker. You tell us" Tyler said.
"I can't find her"
"She probably found somebody else to party with, sorry pill pusher, I guess you've been replaced" Tyler said.
"Tyler!" I snapped.
"What's with the pill pusher?" Elena asked.
"Ask him" Tyler said nodding at Jeremy.
"You wanna do this right now?" Jeremy asked.
"Are you dealing?" Elena asked him.
"She's never gonna go for you!" Tyler said.
Oh no. "She already did" Jeremy said. Shit. "Over and over and over again"
"Yeah, right" Tyler scoffed.
"You slept with Vicki Donovan?" I glared at Caroline "I mean, Vicki Donovan slept with you?"
"There's no way" Tyler said. Oh Tyler. Yes there is.
"And I didn't even have to force her into it" Jeremy snapped. Wait? What?
"What the hell is he talking about Ty?" Matt asked.
I glared at Tyler and he stared at the two of us "Nothing man, just ignore him. He's a punk"
"You know what" I said "How about all of you shut up and help us find our sister?!"
"We'll check the back" Bonnie said.
"We'll check the square" Matt said and we ran out.
In the street we ran into Stefan.
"Hey" I said with a smile.
"Hey" Stefan said.
"Have you seen our sister?" Matt asked.
"No, sorry" He said looking at us.
"We can't find her. She's missing"
"I'll keep an eye out for her" Stefan nodded.
"Thank you" I said and went to take off but stopped realizing Matt wasn't with me.
"Hey. I saw you at the hospital yesterday" He said.
"Did you?" Stefan asked.
"What were you doing there?"
"Visiting" Stefan nodded.
"Visiting?" Matt asked then changed the subject "You know Elena and I, we've known each other a long time. We might not be together right now but I look out for her. And I'll always look out for her"
He didn't answer Matt and he looked to the side of him and then back at us "Excuse me" He said.
Matt looked at me as Stefan ran off "Matt, you need to stop that"
"Stop what?"
"This whole Elena thing. Leave it be"
"I was just telling him"
"I know" I said shaking my head.
As we searched I saw her "Vicki!" I yelled and ran over to her, seeing the blood on her neck.
"Oh god.." Matt said.
"It's ok...I took some pills..." She said.
I shook my head "Come on" I said and we went into the grill. I went up to the bar to get some cloths and was walking past when I heard Caroline.
"Ugh it's so much drama. Ever notice how the druggies are the biggest attention whores?" She asked.
I narrowed my eyes and sat in front of her "Excuse me?" I asked.
She shrugged "I didn't mean it- "
"You have a problem with my sister Caroline?" I asked staring at her.
"No it's just-"
"You have a problem with her, talk to me about it. Don't sit here and bitch about my sister again. You're supposed to be my friend, but she's my sister, don't let me ever hear you calling her that again" I snapped and moved away from her and Bonnie.
"Carly!" Bonnie called and I ignored her, handing the cloths to Matt.
"What was that?" Vicki asked.
"Nothing" I huffed folding my arms and I walked over to a table and sat down, so I didn't need to look at Caroline Forbes stupid face. She had no right.
"Excuse me" Stefan said "Hi"
"Hey, you found Vicki...thank you"
"That's fine" he said with a nod.
"Have you seen Elena?" he asked.
"I think she went home" I said.
"Oh right" he sighed and then he turned.
"Wait!" I called "I'm gonna give you her number, and her email. She is big on texting and you can tell her "I said so"
"Thank you" He smiled and I handed it to him.
He then walked in the direction of Caroline and Bonnie and I looked over to Matt, thankfully he hadn't seen me give Stefan Elena's number because he'd hate me. Matt sat across from me as Vicki started working again.
I then spotted Jeremy, he had a smile on his face and then it dropped and I turned to see Tyler and Vicki kissing and I looked back to Jeremy. Oh dear.
"I'll be back in a minute" I said and moved from the seat and followed Jeremy out. "Jer?"
He stopped and turned to look at me "What?" He sniffled.
I pursed my lips, my sister was staring to get on my nerves. "Come 'ere"
I walked up to him and pulled him into my arms and hugged him, after a minute he pulled back.
"Don't let it worry you" I said.
"I'm fine" He replied.
"Jeremy, she doesn't know what she wants and if it's you she wants. She'll come around" I nodded.
"You think?"
"No. I know she will" I said and hugged him again "Be careful"
He nodded "Thanks Car"
"No problem"
Jeremy walked off and I walked back into the grill but before I did I seen Caroline, talking to someone. I couldn't see his face but one minute they were talking and the next they were playing tongue tennis and that's when I realized it was Damon. Wow Caroline. I rolled my eyes and went back into the grill.
I was still tired and I needed my bed, and as I watched Vicki walk around, something began to annoy me. What was it with her? It couldn't be just the drugs...could it? I shook my head and Matt and I waited until she was finished her shift so we could go home...
