Chapter 21
BPOV
"Holy crap" said Jeremy in awe.
"I know" I said chuckling at his reaction.
"Wait, so you're...
"Yes" I said cutting my brother off.
"And Elijah's your...
"Uh huh" I nodded at Caroline.
"And your really a witch?" asked Bonnie.
"T-that I am not sure of as of yet" I told her.
We were currently at my house after myself and Elena had called an emergency group meeting to explain the newest events. Caroline, Bonnie, Damon, Stefan, Jeremy, Elijah, John, Elena and myself were all gathered in the living room, Aunt Jenna was in town with Alaric whom was keeping her busy until we were finished here.
"You managed to fling Damon across the room without even touching him, that sounds like something only a witch could do to me" Bonnie said trying to hide a smirk.
I had to admit it was pretty damn funny, I mean the look on Damon's face when I'd thrown him was just priceless. It was just a shame I didn't have a camera on me at the time, I'm pretty sure everyone would have loved to have seen a photo of Damon Salvatore pouting like a baby.
"Amongst other things" Damon muttered.
"Well like I said I'm not a hundred percent on it because for all we know it could have been some sort of fluke, but we'll just have to wait and see" I said choosing to ignore Damon's snide comment.
"Okay, but still...you and him" Jeremy said gesturing his hand between Elijah and I.
"I know right, even I can't get my head round it" Elena giggled.
"How's the sex?"
My eyes felt like they were about to pop out my sockets as all heads snapped to the blonde haired cheerleader in the room.
"CAROLINE!" I yelled feeling completely shocked to her sudden yet embarrassing question.
"What? I'm just curious" Caroline smugly spoke.
"I'm not" spoke both John and Jeremy at the same time.
"I am not discussing this" I told Caroline feeling myself blushing.
"Oh come on" Caroline sulked pouting her lip.
"N.O spells no" I told her putting my foot down on this.
"Doesn't matter anyway because according to what little Bella told Jenna they apparently haven't made even it to third base yet" Damon chuckled with his smug self.
If there were ever a time I would want no need to tap into my so called inner witch now would be it so I could kill Damon Salvatore.
"This coming from the green eyed monster himself who doesn't have the guts to tell the girl he likes how he truly feels because he'd rather play the part of the town dick than open his heart to another? Sorry but pathetic" I blurted out having had enough of Damon's crap.
The whole room dropped into a deadly silence as I glanced round the room to the expressions on everyone's faces. Elena and Bonnie looked taken back, Stefan seemed shocked yet had a fearful look in his eye, Caroline, Jeremy and John looked completely amused and Elijah looked between both shocked yet prideful at the same time. Damon on the other hand was a whole other story completely because the look on his face just said everything, he was pissed the fuck off.
"Say that again, I dare you" Damon sneered at me.
"Oh was I not loud enough for you? I'm sorry allow to repeat myself then" I sarcastically spoke clearing my throat. "Damon Salvatore you are the most pathetic aggravating self centred vampire I have ever had the displeasure of meeting in my life" I said not holding anything back.
"You really do have a death wish, don't you?" Damon asked staring daggers at me.
"Only when it comes to dicks like you" I seethed at him.
"Okay guys lets take it down a notch here" Elena spoke up trying to ease the situation.
"You know what? I have just about had it with you and your smart mouth, I wish Klaus just dealt with you when he had the chance because at least then I wouldn't have had put up with his little bitch anymore" Damon spat out at me.
"HEY!" Jeremy yelled.
"Damon!" Stefan shouted.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" Elena screeched.
"You little bastard" my father sneered.
"You really are lowest of the low" Bonnie furiously spoke.
Within seconds Elijah had disappeared from my side and slammed Damon into the wall with a broken chair leg in hand about to stake the idiot Salvatore boy when I jumped in.
"Elijah!" I shouted as the man I love froze in place with his arm that held the stake in it still raised in the air. "Stop, your better than him" I said getting up from the couch to slowly approach him.
"Bella I will not excuse the vulgar things he just said to you, he basically just wished you dead" Elijah growled.
"Which is what makes you the better than him, but if you kill Damon now you'll be playing right into his hands. This is what he what he wants he wants to force your hand in order to make you the bad guy" I said coming up beside him to carefully caress his face with my hand and gently turned his head so our eyes were now connected. "Don't give him that, don't give him the satisfaction he in no way deserves" I softly told him.
As I saw the anger in his eyes slowly deteriorate I gently lowered his arm and went to remove the stake from his grasp with our gaze still locked on one another the entire time. Elijah then hesitantly dropped his hold on Damon and backed away, while I on the other hand had something else to add to the matter.
"Aaaaaahhhh!" cried Damon as I'd taken him completely off guard by staking him in the gut making sure to twist it just to add that extra umph.
'And that my friends is karma at it's best' I thought to myself.
"Bella!" Elena yelped looking at me in disbelief.
"What? You think I was seriously gonna let him get away with what he said? I may not approve of violence Elena, but I can sure as hell fight my own battles" I told her.
"You…little…bitch" Damon groaned at me whilst trying to yank the stake out.
"Your in no position to be calling names right now, I could easily have rammed that stake right through your heart but unlike you I do actually have a conscience. So just you think of this as a warning for future reference because if you so dare to speak to me like you did ever again then you better damn well take into consideration that next time I won't be as kind. That much I promise" I sneered at him.
I then turned away from him as well as everyone else to walk out the room and head on upstairs to grab a shower and get changed wanting to distract myself before I really did end up doing something stupid, namely killing Damon.
When I got to my room I quickly grabbed a pair of tight black skinny jeans, a spaghetti strap red cami top and matching blue underwear before heading onto the bathroom.
Shortly after I'd finished my shower I emerged from the bathroom in time to hear the front door slam and was about to go investigate when I suddenly felt myself being pinned to the wall and to my surprise the culprit turned out to be non other than Elijah.
"Elijah what are y…mumph"
Before I could even finish my sentence I felt his lips slam into my own knocking the breath right out of me as he began kissing me with so much hunger that it took a minute for my brain to function again before I threw my arms around his neck and returning the same amount of passion. I ran my hands through his luscious hair scrapping my nails across his scalp as I felt his running over my ass making me squeal against his lips, our tongues clashed together in an endless battle for dominance that I was unwilling to loose this time as I was determined to drive Elijah just as crazy as he did me.
"Bella" my love moaned.
I then bit down on his lip, which seemed to knock him for a loop as I heard him growl before attacking my neck with open wet kisses.
"Elijah, I need you" I moaned arching my neck to the side to allow him more access.
He then lifted me up by my ass to wrap my legs around him and before I knew it I was lying on my bed with him on top of me still ravaging my neck. I quickly threw off his jacket blazer and begun unbuttoning his shirt but before I could even finish my task I suddenly felt my hands being pinned above my head with Elijah's face just inches from my mine.
"Keep them there" Elijah instructed with his eyes dark with lust making me shiver in pleasure.
As I nodded my head feeling myself getting wetter by minute, he then did something completely unexpected as I felt him lift my top up as well as my bra and push them up until the material was covering my eyes like a blindfold.
'Holy shit!' I mentally yelled as I felt Elijah's mouth claim my left breast while his hand massaged my right making me moan out loudly and begin squirming beneath him. At this point I was beginning to wonder that if it was this good now how on earth would I survive making love to this man who set my entire body on fire by just looking at me and his touch alone nearly made me melt, combine both together and it was the most sensual indulging experience one in love could get themselves lost in for eternity.
"Elijah, please" I moaned as I felt him begin trailing his kisses down my chest.
"So perfect…and all mine" I heard Elijah say between his kisses.
"Yours only yours" I moaned struggling to keep my hands in place as I wanted nothing more than to pin Elijah down and have my way with him.
I felt his silky hands brush over my hips as he begun slowly pulling my pants down my legs with me biting my lip in anticipation. His lips brushed like a feather between my thighs, had I not been lying down at the time I would have collapsed from knee failure. I knew I was about to loose control at any moment if he carried on with this as I felt the flames of passion licking at my body. Just as his fingers brush against my panties I suddenly felt Elijah's whole body freeze in place and before I could even question why the worst of the worst happened because from out of nowhere I heard my door fly open.
"Hey Bella I thought we could…OH MY GOD!"
Was what I heard as I yanked my top from my eyes to see my sister in the doorway.
"ELENA! HOLY SHIT!" I screeched quickly yanking the sheets off the bed to cover my almost naked body while Elijah whom I hadn't even realised had taken off his clothes was scrambling to redress himself.
"I'm so sorry, I…oh my god" Elena rambled looking completely horrified.
"FOR GOD SAKE ELENA GET OUT!" I yelled at her as she quickly made a dive for the door stumbling over her feet as she slammed it shut behind her.
"What. The. Hell. Just happened here?" I questioned not knowing what else to say in my current shocked state.
"I believe your sister just caught us in a very compromising position" Elijah spoke amusingly.
"It was a rhetorical question but thank you for announcing the obvious" I said rolling my eyes and just then I saw Elijah narrow his eyes to the door.
"What? What's wrong?" I asked him.
"Quickly get dressed" he said flashing over to lock the door.
"Why? What's going on?" I asked gathering my pants up from the floor and all of a sudden I heard commotion outside my door giving me my answer.
"John don't just leave it alone" I heard Elena's muffled voice say.
I then scrambled to get to get the rest of my clothes back on as I heard the footsteps fast approaching.
"Get out of my way Elena" I heard my father say.
Knock Knock!
"Bella? Bella open this door right now!" John half yelled as he tried having a go at twisting the doorknob.
Oh god oh god oh god! What was I gonna do? He was surely gonna hit the roof if he caught Elijah in here with me, but then again what was it to him? John knew what Elijah meant to me and knew he would never hurt me shape or form. That's when all fear miraculously disappeared and in its place was determination.
"Open the door" I told Elijah.
"Are you sure?" he asked looking at me in concern.
"Positive" I boldly said getting ready to face the storm head on.
Elijah then unlocking the door quickly came to my side as a pissed off looking John came barging into the room with Elena hot on his heals.
"You! Out of my house, now!" John shouted at Elijah.
"Excuse me?" Elijah said staring my father down.
"You heard me, it's one thing to plague us with your existence but to go after someone as sweet and innocent as my daughter is beyond repulsive" John sneered at him.
'What the hell!' I thought to myself. How dare my father insult Elijah like that when he'd done nothing wrong.
"What exactly is repulsive as you so put it about one like myself having feelings for you daughter?" Elijah asked.
"A thousand year old vampire prying on a seventeen year old girl who has got her whole life ahead of her and yet is now being plagued by a man who claims to be her mate? It's pathetic and disgusting" John spoke with distaste.
That. Was. It!
"How dare you" I said looking at my father in outrage as slowly stood up from the bed. "How. Dare. You" I more or less hissed this time.
"Bella…"
"No! How dare you speak to him that way! How dare you come up here and try to criticize my relationship knowing exactly what Elijah and my ancestor had gone through all those years ago in order to be together, and now that I've finally found my soulmate your gonna just stand there and bully us as if we have something to be ashamed of?" I asked my father who seemed lost for words at this point, "because let me tell you…I have nothing…we have nothing to be ashamed of" I said proudly taking Elijah's hand in my own.
"And you know something else John? You don't know me. You maybe my father but you were weren't there for the last seventeen years of my life to able to claim that title, if anyone should be ashamed of themselves it's you. You say Klaus is a nightmare but look at you, you have brought nothing but lies and shame to this family. You hurt me, you hurt Elena, Jenna, Jeremy all of us!" I shouted at him through tears of anger that threatened to fall. "Do you even know what it means to be a good person? Or for that matter a good father?" I asked as John looked down in shame.
"I can't come to regret coming to Mystic Fall's because I honestly don't. Moving here was one of the best things that ever happened to me, I gained an incredible family, made great friends and found my mate. But on the down side I left something back in Fork's that I wish I never had, a loving mother and a tremendous father that mattered the world to me and though they may not have be of actual blood they will always be the parents I know that raised and loved me like I was their own.
You know at first I was willing to give you a chance to prove to me that you could step up and be the father I thought you could be for Elena and I, but after a while I begun to realise that you just can't change people who prove to be an even bigger disappointment than they already are" I told him.
"Bella its not…I can change I can be a better father a better person" John ranted.
"You've had eighteen years to prove yourself but in that time you failed to be a responsible parent, you and Isobel both. I don't need someone in my life that can lie to his own daughters over and over again just because he feels like it, I don't need someone who won't support me for whatever I do with my life and I certainly don't need someone who makes my family and friend's lives a misery whenever or however. As far as father's go John you are no better than Mikael" I said sensing Elijah looking at me but my gaze remained on my father who looked at me with both shock and sorrow.
"Bella" John whispered.
"I want you out of Mystic Fall's by end of the day, and this time don't bother to come back. There is nothing more for you here" and with those words spoken Elena then came to my side and took my free hand as we united as sisters.
"No, please don't do this. Your both all I've got left, without you I'm nothing" John pleaded.
"That's the thing though John, you never had us to begin with" Elena said staring daggers at our father.
And just then I saw Stefan walk into the room as he and Elena both gave each other a nod before he kindly guided John from the room and once he was gone I fell into my sister's arms finally let it all go.
"I'm so proud of you Bella, I really am. It's gonna be okay now I promise, everything's gonna be okay" Elena softly spoke rubbing soothing circles on my back.
Yes it was gonna be okay because we had banded together to rid of the one person who had disgraced our family for so long and had now finally been shown the door.
Elena and Isabelle Gilbert had once and for all turned their back on John Gilbert.
Goodbye and Goodnight.
Author's Note: Go Bella! She told it like it is, all those happy to see John go give me a WOOP WOOP! Lol.
