Chapter 4:

Estelle Potter

When Bonnie and I reached the Gilbert Home, I was introduced to a perky blonde named, Caroline who was a newly turned vampire.

I have to admit I'm amazed of the control Caroline have on her bloodlust despite of being a baby vampire, normally these newborns go rampage.

I re-introduce myself to Elena and concocted a half lie that I was going to help Bonnie get her powers back somehow, well that was the original plan but you get the point.

'Chinese food or pizza?' Caroline asked.

'Like you have to ask.' Elena replied.

'I will get it.' Caroline muttered as she takes her iPad then she suddenly stops.

Bonnie took the Ipad from Caroline and said. 'I'll do it.'

'Do you believe that Jonas is being sincere?' Elena started.

Bonnie sighed 'I don't know what to believe. I think he's at a loss. He's not sure who to trust.'

Elena said. 'Join the club.'

'Can you blame him? His son was used for someone else's gain then the man he trusts disappears suddenly.' I pointed out.

'Well, what are we going to do about this movie situation? What about "The Notebook"?' Caroline changes the subject.

'Caroline, how many times have you seen that movie?' Elena asks.

'That is so not the point.' Caroline argued.

'Well, yeah, I mean...' Elena said but cut herself off when someone entered the room. 'Hey.'

'What's going on?' The stranger asked.

'Girls' night.' Elena said then she gestured towards me. 'Jenna this is Estelle by the way, Estelle my aunt Jenna.'

'Hello.' I greeted. 'Estelle Riddle.'

Jenna nodded. 'Oh. Hey, Jenna Sommers.'

'How are you doing?' Elena asked.

'You heard about my fight with Rick.'

'He feels terrible.'

'Is this some kind of disguised attempt to cheer me up?'

Elena looked towards us and gave a questioning glance then turned back to her aunt.

'No. No, this is about us girls hanging out and you know, we'll be here if you happen to want to talk, or...'

'Because I am a winner when it comes to successful relationships.' Caroline grumbled.

I mentally snorted and gave them an amused look.

'You, too?' Jenna asked Caroline.

'You have no idea.'

'Okay, then.'

'It's this whole Isobel thing. He's hiding something from me.' Jenna started.

'To play devil's advocate, maybe there is a great reason why he's not telling you. Maybe he is just trying to protect you.' Caroline reasoned out.

'Well, that's not his call to make. I mean, I deserve the truth. Everybody does.' Jenna argued.

'Sometimes it's harder than that.' Caroline mumbled

'Not if it's somebody you care about, it isn't.' Jenna said.

I cut them off. 'Okay enough, this makes everything more gloomier than ever. If we are talking about this I need to get plastered for this.'

'You know what we need? Dancing. There is a band at the grill.' Caroline suggested.

'I'm in.' Bonnie said.

'In.' Jenna replied.

'In.' Elena added.

They glanced at me waiting for my response. 'As long as I get my round.'

When we arrived at the Mystic Grill we take a look at the band. Jenna's attention turned to a guy.

Jenna announced. 'I need a drink.'

'I'll join you.' I said following her to bar.

I sat a seat away from Jenna and observed my surroundings while carefully watching Bonnie, Elena and Caroline.

Then someone approached Jenna.

'Jenna.' He said.

'Not tonight, Ric. Tonight I have traded you for señor tequila and Estelle's company.' Jenna said.

'Cheers to that.' I said glancing at them for a second. 'Estelle Riddle, pleasure to meet you.'

'Alaric Saltzman. Are you old enough to drink?' He asked.

'I'm legal. Want to see my I. D.?' I said.

'Never mind.' Alaric muttered then he turned back to Jenna. 'Yeah. Well, señor tequila's not going to be treating you very well.'

'Well, the two of you have a lot in common.' Jenna retorted.

I blocked them out the moment I felt like that they were going to argue and took out my phone.

"I'm at the bar atm. Babysitting bunch of problematic supernatural creature. –E"

"You're not drinking are you? We found new information btw. –H"

"Unfortunately, I need to be plastered enough for this job. Don't worry I can hold my liquor . . . Unlike you. –E P. S. Found out what we missed. Apparently there's another original at the Salvatore's cellar."

"I'm not a light weight!"

"We will investigate about it. Take care of yourself Estelle. –Draco Malfoy. P. S. This thing is useful. Thank you."

"You're a crybaby drunk 'Mione. Anyway, teach drake the wonders of texting . . . His message gives me the jeepers. –E P. S. Ur wc Drake. ;)"

"Tch. Yeah, it gave me Goosebumps the last time. –H"

"I'm confused, please explain what this';)' means. –Draco Malfoy."

"Hermione. –E"

"I'm working on it. –H P. S. Don't get wasted. TTYL."

I slipped in my phone to my pocket and finished my drink until I was taken out from my reverie by Caroline.

'Hey, everybody. Let's hear it for the band! Weren't they awesome? So there's this guy. And, uh, he told me to tell him how I feel about him. Like it's so easy. Um, you know, just 'cause I talk a lot doesn't mean I always know what I'm actually talking about. Ah, like now, I'm feeling loopy and I don't really know how to express myself. I can sing. Yeah! Yeah. You know what, I'm going to sing.'

The original singer joins her on stage and said. 'Come on, off the stage.'

'You are going to let me live out my rock star fantasies, and you are going to be my back-up.' Caroline compels the poor guy.

She started singing the song 'Eternal Flame' and I supported her from where I was seated while the others cheers for her very loudly. When Matt joins Caroline at the stage everyone went wild when they kissed and I internally snorted for the PDA. I stood up and left the grill.

End Chapter 4

Okay so, this chapter is short because it's a filler at some sort. Sorry 'bout that.

Yesterday I check up on the reviews, followers, views and favorites of this story and I am so shocked. In a short span of days the story have already plenty of supporters . . . Others might think that it's just because the previous author's followers have transferred to this story but I truly appreciate it. Anyway, I really like reading your opinions about this stories and IrineForbessays that she also appreciates your support on me. We both thank you for your support and love for the story.

About the pairing, I'm still thinking about it . . . You see I'm a big KLAROLINE fan and some readers like to pair Estelle with Klaus and IrineForbes said that her original plan was Estelle/Klaus pairing. I'll think about it, the next update I'll inform you on my decision.

For that reader who pointed out about the betrayals of the TVD gang, You know who you are, I've already decided a plot twist for that... ;)

Anyway, I would absolutely love it if you review.

Until next update!
