When Bella woke up, she smells eggs and bacon which was coming from downstairs. Bella got up from her bed and went to the closet to get dress as she isn't going downstairs in her pajamas. She decided to wear a red blouse and short blue jeans; she then put on some stocks and went downstairs. When she got to the kitchen, she saw the brothers, Elena, Jeremy another guy who's jaw dropped at the sight of her. Bella was so hungry that she ignored them and sat down, just as when places a plate in front of her.
"Hungry? Sickly Gilbert" Damon asks with a smirk as he watches Bella eat like an animal
"Back off, Damon the Evil" Bella said, with a mouth full of bacon
"Damon the Evil? I like it; I think I will keep that little nickname. Thanks, Sickly Gilbert"
"Bella, don't talk with your mouth full" Stefan scolded, but he was amused by her actions
Elena, Jeremy and the guy who was still staring at her in shock look amused as well, expects Elena who also looks she was glaring at Damon. Bella looks up at Damon who looks like he knows that Elena was glaring, but ignoring her. Bella turns her head to glare at Elena, who seems to be taken aback. Jeremy, who is still angry at Damon for killing him, sees that even if Bella just met Damon; she's protective of the eldest Salvatore. Stefan looks between his brother and Bella, he knows this is just the start of a friendship for Damon and Bella, but he has a gut feeling that Bella will be Damon's Lexi and that will be good for Damon.
"Bella, this is Alaric Saltzman. Ric this is Isabella Marie Swan the long lost twin to Elena. She was kidnaped by the late dearest Anna" Damon said as Alaric kept on staring at Bella
"Damon," Jeremy said in a warning tone
"What? Little Gilbert, you may have loved her. She could've died a long time ago" Damon said, rolling his eyes
"Damon, I don't know who this Anna was expects that she was the one who gave me to Renee. But if Jeremy here was dating Anna and lost her, then you should at least be a little nicer to him. Elena stops glaring at him or I will never speak to you or go to your house to meet Aunt Jenna. Nice to meet you Alaric, but if you don't stop staring at me; I will-"Bella was interrupted
"Wow there sickly Gilbert, no need to threaten Ric; he will stop staring. Right Ric" Damon said to Bella and then to Alaric with a raised eyebrow
Stefan looks even more amused as Bella also raised an eyebrow at Damon and to other people and if Bella didn't look too much like Elena. Stefan just knows that people would think Damon and Bella were brother and sister. Stefan also knows that Bella is getting annoyed with the nickname that Damon gave her.
"Damon enough with that nickname, she's getting better," Stefan told his brother
"I will stop calling her that Stefan when she looks healthier" Damon replied with a smirk
"Then at least use the surname that I grew up with, even though I was sold to Renee. Swan is my surname" Bella said to Damon ignoring Stefan's look that he gave her
"Hmm, Sickly Swan? Nope Sickly Gilbert sounds better and besides if Anna had minded her business you would've been a Gilbert. Why Anna did it we may never find out thanks to John Gilbert aka your deadbeat biological daddy." Damon said, mostly to Bella and himself, but Bella can see Jeremy giving Damon the evil eye
Bella knows that Damon is interested in learning the reason for himself, but she can also hear concern for her as well. It's sweet at least to her, but she can see that Elena doesn't think so and Jeremy was glaring harder. Stefan was looking at Damon like he agrees with Elena and half amused. Alaric just kept on staring at her and she can say it's getting annoying. Bella got up from her seat after finishing her breakfast and look at Damon.
"Damon, can you take me to Angela's home?" Bella asks Damon
"The Weber house, sure," Damon said shrugging his shoulders
"What you said-"Elena was interrupted
"I know what I said, but you three are getting are my nerves and normally it takes a lot for someone to get on my nerves. Now I want to see my friend" Bella said, walking toward the front door and out. Damon smirked, which Elena sees and glared at him
"What is it now Damon?" Elena asks coldly, which got Damon to see Katherine in Elena. Damon walked toward the hall after grabbing his keys from it places in the kitchen and then bent down to grab a pair of boots
"Sickly Gilbert forgot to put these on," Damon said, before walking out toward his car, without a second thought or care
Damon got into the driver seat of his 1969 Chevy Camaro Convertible, where Bella was in the passenger seat. Once inside; Damon put the boots on Bella's lap, which made her blush realizing she left the house without them. Damon started the car and drove off while doing so he sees in his rearview mirror Elena watching them leaves. It's kind of ironic that the twin sister of Elena would rather be with a vampire in a sibling sort of relationship than her mortal twin sister like herself. It's kind of amusing as well, he also saw that Stefan thought so as well even if his brother wouldn't admit it.
Meanwhile back at the Salvatore Boarding House; Elena was ranting that Bella should have stayed and gone with her to meet her aunt. Jeremy raised an eyebrow at his sister as she making everything about her and not about everyone involved. Alaric was just sitting there uncomfortably as he realized he and Elena were mostly responsible for Bella's leaving. Elena was still ranting, when Alaric stood up and that made Elena shut up.
"I think I will be going now," Alaric said and began to walk toward the front door
"What? Ric, you have to see that Bella acting like she's doesn't care about her family" Elena asks/said
"Elena, do you even hear yourself right now? Bella didn't grow up here, she didn't grow up with her biological family us and so she didn't grow up a Gilbert. She didn't even know she wasn't even a Swan until now, so please tell me Elena Katerina Gilbert; how would or should she even know us enough to feel anything for us?" Jeremy asks/said when he said Elena's middle name Alaric stopped and Stefan looked at Jeremy in shock as did Elena, but for different reasons
"Jeremy, Elena's middle name is Katerina?" Stefan asks, causing the teen to look at him
"Yeah, you didn't know? Wait for you surely didn't know, did you? Jeremy asks, looking at Stefan
Alaric just look at Elena in a new light, her attitude does make her sound selfish and from what he heard about Katherine aka Katerina Petrova; she's selfish as well and had played with both Damon and Stefan. Now Elena from what he saw Elena in love with Stefan yes and that why they're dating, but Elena also loves Damon and he has no doubt that Elena would use Damon's feeling for her against him. Alaric thinks that Elena is doomed to be just like her ancestor, just like Katherine and her mother Isobel. The worst part is that Elena looks like that she shouldn't believe Jeremy had said what he said to her of all people
"I think I really should be going," Alaric said, before walking toward the door again
"Wait up Ric, I'm going as well," Jeremy said, leaving quickly unable to look at his sister
"Ric, Jeremy" Elena called out to Alaric and her brother, but they were ignoring her
Elena turns toward Stefan, only to find him shaking his head and then gave her a small smile.
"Elena, I think it would be best if you went home, I think we both need to get clears heads," Stefan said before he too walks out the front door leaving Elena behind
Elena watched him walks away with a betrayed look, she just doesn't know what wrong with her. From the day, Damon told her that she has a twin sister that's stolen from her; she was scared and excited about having a twin sister. Scared that's people would rather have Isabella than her. Excited, because having a twin sister means that she and her sister can do things together, but Isabella seems to want to spend time with Damon than her and what worse is Damon want to spend time with her sister as well. While she doesn't know what wrong with her, but she does know that she doesn't like her sister and Damon spending time together more than her; she wants both of their attention.
"Sad really," a voice with a European accent said from the side
"What?" Elena asks, turning around to see a dark brown haired, dark brown eyed teenager who looks to be hers and her sister's age.
"Poor Elena Gilbert, like her ancestor, wants every eye on her, always wanted a sister. Loves two brothers, but can't choose and so tries to deny feelings for the other. That makes you the same and yet different than your ancestor, but I wonder what will win out the Elena part or the Katerina part? I wonder indeed" the teenager said
"Who are you? What do you want?" Elena asks, trying to sound fearless and failing badly
"Oh me? I'm just a boy who once died and was brought back to life. I'm Isabella's best friend, well one of them since she was 11-years-old. Now as for my name, well I'm not telling you, where's the fun in that." The mysterious teenager said, before disappearing
Elena was shocked, the teenager shouldn't be human if he disappears right in front of her like that, but the question is what was he? Who was he?
At Weber Manor; Angela Weber was mixing potions for people who request them, Mystic Falls doesn't know that she's a witch, but they know as an Alchemist. That helps her in two ways, it helps them her safe from starting up a new Witch trial and it let her do what she loved mixing potions.
"You always look beautiful, when you're mixing potions," a voice said
"What are you doing here? You should be watching the Cullens family" Angela asks/said to the mysterious person
"Royal and Eleanor are doing that right now," the mysterious person said to her
"Cullen," Angela said and Cullen smirked as Angela rub her forehead
"It's just my luck that a family with the same name as a person's first name moves in the same town. Any chance you'll tell me, your real name?" Angela said/asks Cullen
"Nope the only one who knows is Bell and I doubt she will tell you," Cullen said smirking and Angela opens her mouth to speak, when
"ANGELA, BELLA IS HERE AND SHE BROUGHT A FRIEND" Angela's father yelled
Angela looks at the attic, where she does her potions and spells door and then back at Cullen only to see him gone. She shook her head and went back to her potion, just as when Bella and Damon Salvatore walked in the attic. Bella went to sit down on the couch, where she found a blue rose and Angela saw her eyes lit up.
"Cullen was here" Bella stated
"Who's Cullen?" Damon asks as he sat in a chair near a table that was in the attic
"Yes he was Bella; Cullen is a friend of Bella's since childhood or so, Damon. Oh and Bella are you ever going to tell me Cullen's real name?" Angela said/asks
"I'm sorry, but no" Bella said, looking at the blue rose
Damon just looks between Bella and Angela who just shrugged and went back to her potion. Damon just shrugged his shoulders and got up from the chair and walked toward Angela to watch her mix her potion.
