As expected, Damon wouldn't allow me to attend the party, not that I was actually interested though I wasn't actually expecting him to, besides it wouldn't be safe for me to attend anyway with Stefan attending as my brother didn't want to risk my safety just so I could spy on Stefan at some party where teenagers were drinking and doing gods know what else?

Besides, I was nine and could easily be spotted by any of those drunk teenagers that were there and if Stefan spotted and actually recognized me, it would be game over and I was supposed to stay hidden for as long as possible or at least until Stefan tried to take my brother down and knowing him, he will try to get Damon out of the way.

I had gone to the movies with Jessica with my 'babysitter', something my brother approved of though because Jessica's aunt didn't want her staying out late because she was only eight, we had to see an earlier showing before having to be home as apparently her rules were stricter than the ones of her brother and sister's, though Damon hardly lets me out either and surprised he let me stay out this late, when it was so close to my bedtime.

It actually worked out for me anyway, because I was to meet Damon in the woods by 7:30, escorted by my 'babysitter' and if I was even a minute late, he would come looking and would not be happy, doubting I would be allowed to join him on the fun again instead of always being 'sent to bed', but doesn't have time to take me back and wasn't allowed to go that far on my own, even with the babysitter.

Jessica's aunt had offered to bring me back home, but I just told her Damon was picking me up at the grill, glad that Damon had compelled me a babysitter or she wouldn't have left me on my own, besides he would kill me for going with her, even if she was Jessica's aunt, giving me a lecture about going off with strangers; it didn't matter if I was a vampire or not.

Though I didn't stick around the grill too long, just long enough for her aunt to see me go inside, taking off the second she was out of sight as I was afraid the building would fall right on top of me; this town really needs to put some money aside to fix that place up so at least it didn't look so rundown and really need to consider getting a movie theater.

It was so ridiculous that Mystic Falls weren't with the times, staying secluded from the rest of the world and it seems that the only exciting thing that ever happens is when the Mayor host private events that were only for founding family members; good thing I was a Salvatore or I will never be able to attend.

Though doubt children were allowed to attend the party regardless, but still don't know how I was going to be able to stand living in a small town, where there was nothing to do.

In my honest opinion, Stefan was perfect for this small town and the stuck up people in it, because he refuses to change and from what Damon says, is still stuck in his ways of doing things and refuses to apparently change with the times, even to just blend in.

That was only going to make him stand out even more and then, thinks he has the right to judge Damon for it; he lost that right to judge either of us for anything a long time ago.

Jessica and I had managed to get some ice cream before her aunt had showed up, making me extra hyper with all the sugar, but I could care less and I absolutely love ice cream.

I know Damon would be all over me if he knew I had some without his permission, but what he he doesn't know, won't hurt him; he was too busy spying on Stefan to notice, yet he said he was going to make his first appearance to him tonight.

It was already dark out and have long since departed from Jessica who had gone home with her aunt already since she had such a harsh bedtime as I set off to find Damon, knowing that I was already late which he was going to be real annoyed with and surprised he hasn't already come looking for me yet or sent off a text, demanding my whereabouts.

Damon was easy to spot, but you really couldn't miss him with those black clothes of his and no surprise, he was feeding off some girl as I stood by with the 'babysitter' and watched until my brother was done with this girl.

While I don't approve of how he eats, I also know that this was Damon and would never try to change him because there was nothing wrong with the way he is, no matter what Stefan thinks; he was perfect and the best big brother I could ask for.

I hated that Stefan judged my brother for how he feeds, because he was worse than Damon ever was and acts like him being a ripper and wiping out entire villages never happened, never learning how to control his thirst and while I may mostly drink from blood bags, I also knew how to control myself while feeding; Damon made sure of that.

So, in my opinion, he has no room to talk after all that he has done, some even before he was a vampire and acted like he did nothing wrong and thinks he has the right to act all high and mighty because he drinks from animals, not humans.

That doesn't make him more humane than us, he is just suppressing who he was and it was going to be deadly when he finally drinks human again and certainly has no right to judge us for how we decide to live.

I know what was going to happen, he was going to make himself look like a hero to this doppelganger bitch that I already didn't like while making Damon to be some villain when most of the time, he was doing what needed to be done.

And because Stefan sometimes didn't like the way he would solve thinks that Damon did to protect us, he made him out as a monster when he has always been a hero, my hero.

I watched as the girl that I think was drunk or on some kind of drugs dropped to the ground, probably dead and Damon finally took notice of me standing to the side watching him.

If it was anyone else, he would have killed them for daring to interrupt his meal early, but never me; I could interrupt him as much as I wanted, he never cared.

We may be predators now, but in a way my brother still saw me as his child and in a way, with the exception of Katherine, I always came first to him and it didn't matter if he was in the middle of feeding or not, Damon always dropped what he was doing to come to me because in his eyes, I was his baby and that was more important than his latest feed as he gave me a stern look.

"Cutie Pie, you are late, real late and was getting ready to go looking for you. Don't ever do that, I thought something happened. Now are you thirsty, I can find someone for you to feed on," Damon offered as he compelled the 'babysitter' to leave , but I just shook my head at him as I really wasn't in the mood to feed right now.

I will just have a blood bag later tonight before I went to bed, besides we didn't want to risk too much exposure and knew that this was more about sending a message to Stefan, like the couple at the camping site.

I may not approve of his methods, it didn't mean I would ever go against him either, "No thanks, not really hungry right now. I'll feed later, I promise. Sorry for being late Dami, it won't happen again.

Jessica left early because of a strict bedtime, even worse than mine and just wandered around for a while. I might try to help convince her aunt to ease up on her restrictions. Some of her rules are ridiculous," I said, knowing that he wouldn't have a problem with it.

"That's fine with me, but just make sure you eat before bed tonight and you should have came straight here as soon as you parted with her, don't do it again. Now, let's watch Stefan's reaction when they find the body, I can't wait," Damon said with his famous smirk before lifting me up in his arms with vampire speed.

That caught me by surprise as I was still feeling scolded and running off in the woods where we could watch Stefan from afar, exciting to see his reaction, too bad I didn't bring my camera, it would have been awesome.

I knew that this was Damon wanting to make a surprise entrance to Stefan and while I wasn't ready to quite see our brother yet, I was eventually going to make myself known to him, but wanted to catch him with his pants down and catch him by surprise because I knew that with the girl here, he was going to try something to stop my brother to keep her safe and I would need to have Damon's back; it wouldn't be the first time and doubt it will be the last.

It wasn't long before we heard screaming, and surprisingly from the doppelganger herself who was calling for help which was actually a shocker because after the way she treated her sister, I didn't think that she cared about anyone but herself, but it probably just an act because I have seen her true self and it wasn't pretty, and she wasn't as good an actress as everyone thought the girl was.

I had to cover my mouth to keep from laughing at the dramatics of the girl, as well as the look on Stefan's face, seeing the strain on his face from all the blood as I watched the color drain from his face, making it obvious that he has yet to learn control and still can't be around blood; it's been 145 years, he needs to get over his obsessive blood lust and learn to face it.

"Surprise, Surprise. Stefan took off over a little bit of blood. He is such a baby," I said in a baby voice for dramatics as I tuned out the doppelganger that was starting to get on my nerves, her voice was exhausting and too whiny for my taste and can't understand what Stefan even sees in the girl and wonder if he has approached her yet instead of just stalking her?

"Now Cutie Pie, be nice. Stefan is still our brother and even if we don't like him, maybe even hate him some which I definitely do, we still love him anyway, despite his faults and his whining and dramatics," Damon said, with a slight lecture which was partially true because even though I tried to fully hate him, there was a part of me that still had some love for him, even if I never forgive him for what he did to me and wonder if he had some love for me too.

That was probably why one of the reasons Damon was always cleaning up Stefan's mess during his ripper phase, because even though he hates Stefan because he was the reason Katherine got caught which I was actually overjoyed about, he couldn't let him drown, but wouldn't let me help too because Stefan and I had issues while he had his humanity on, there was no telling what he would do with the switch off or what he would do to me.

"Dami, his reaction was just too funny to pass off. Besides, I'm the little sister, it is my job to poke fun at him and you are the one that told me that learning blood control is the most important thing about being a vampire, something Stefy never bothered to learn. He thinks he is above us all and I hate that about him," I said in as I covered my ears.

"Does she ever shut up? I think I am actually getting a headache from her and that is impossible for me. If the doppelganger doesn't shut her whining, I'm going to make her shut up and don't care if Stefan throws a fit or not," I said, annoyed by the doppelganger bitches whining about the girl that Damon drained, deliberately leaving the girl alive to screw with our brother.

"Ally, you promised. No killing the girl, at least not yet, I need her as a distraction to Stefan so that he doesn't find out about my plans. The last thing I need is Stefan being a martyr and trying to put a stop to my plans to get Katherine back.

Come on, let's get out of here, I want to surprise Stefan at the boarding house before getting you to bed on time. Remember to stay hidden, we don't want him knowing you are in town yet," Damon reminded me with a tap to my bottom in warning as ran towards the boarding house.

I know that while getting an invitation into the Gilbert home wasn't going to be too problematic, especially since I was already invited over this weekend for a play date which I haven't told my brother about yet since he was too busy feeding on that girl tonight though will tell him at bedtime, but knew he was going to overjoyed when he learns that I already had an invite, but the boarding house was going to be a completely other issue.

I haven't been back in Mystic Falls in 145 years and because I hadn't been around when the boarding house was first built, like Damon and Stefan were, I never got myself invited in and I don't think Damon has considered that or that Zach, our only living human relative left was going to willingly invite me inside because he hates Damon more than anyone, and I was loyal to my brother.

It wasn't going to matter that I was nothing alike Damon or even Stefan, I was loyal to Damon and because from what Damon told me, he liked Stefan more than him, he would forever see me as the enemy and leaving the chance of me getting inside very little because why would he willingly invite another vampire inside when he hated the two that were already invited inside?

I had a feeling that Damon was going to end up killing him to get me inside when the time came for me to go stay at the boarding house, which wasn't going to be for a while as it would be bad if Stefan knew of me being in town, he might try to chase me off and find it funny that he thinks I'm a threat, when he is much more of a threat.

Damon placed me on my feet, while we listened from afar at the conversation inside the boarding house between Stefan and Zach, telling him about there being another attack tonight in town and it wasn't him, knowing he was talking about that couple Damon killed the other night because I had been there with him, and while I don't like the way he feeds, I also wasn't going to stop him either.

I was actually probably the only one that could ever get him to change his ways, but I wouldn't ever change Damon and it wasn't my choice to tell him how to live his life, he has the right to decide for himself and wouldn't want him anyway if he was only doing it for someone else, not himself and after years of listening to Stefan call him a monster for being himself, he actually believes it.

I felt a hand hold me back as I went to follow Damon who was going to go torment Stefan again, giving me a stern look, "Stay here, cutie pie. Don't let either of them see you. Be right back," he said as I blocked my sight from the house and if Stefan wasn't sucking on animal blood, he might of heard us talking or even noticed me in the school the last few days; he was stupid to stop drinking human blood.

I rolled my eyes at the crow that Damon has been using the last few days, thinking that it was a bit much though his familiar was spying for him, especially on the girl and that was how he got half his information.

Honestly though, the crow kind of creeps me out and occasionally gives me nightmares when he uses it though haven't told Damon, I don't want him feeling bad about him being the cause of my bad dreams.

"Hello brother," I heard Damon say to Stefan from afar and had to smirk at that, after using the crow to scare him and knew Damon sure loved to have dramatic entrances, and surprised Stefan didn't see him coming home.

He must know we keep tabs on him even if he couldn't be bothered to check on us though that was another issue all together; too bad I couldn't see Stefan's face at seeing Damon there, I can only hear.

"Why are you here, Damon," I heard Stefan say in annoyance and it bothered me that he acted like Damon and I didn't even exist in his eyes; we were his family and he was choosing to stay away when we could be together and knew in some way Damon felt the same, but covered it up with some sarcastic remark about missing him that I could see right through, trying to ignore their conversation.

Why was I here again and not back at my foster home? That's right, Damon didn't want me walking all that way by myself since he relieved the 'babysitter' and as soon as he was done torturing Stefan, he was going to take me home and probably put me straight to bed, but did wonder what Jessica was doing right now, probably already asleep; she was lucky.

I was mostly toning out their bickering like I had done back when we were human, though being a vampire made it a little more difficult and just wish my brother would hurry up, so that I can go home now, I technically still had school the next day as Damon was taunting him about Elena now, throwing it in his face that it was no secret, but technically he met her first, the girl just can't remember.

"Stay away from Elena," Stefan said, sounding desperate and wonder if telling Damon not to do something, just made him do something even more and was going to make it his main priority to be around her just to piss our brother off, until he got bored of her and I was already ready to kill this girl, she was way too whiny for my taste, worse than Katherine and that is saying something.

Now, Damon was trying to wire Stefan up about his choice of blood, telling him to imagine how Elena's blood taste like, wanting to start a fight with him as I rolled my eyes as Stefan threw Damon threw the window.

Boys, I swear, they were always just eager to have a fight with the other, even after 145 years, they weren't happy if they weren't bloodying up each other, it was ridiculous.

Of course, Damon wasn't hurt at all, leaning casually against the wall like he didn't just get thrown from a window by our brother who took a minute to recover while I jumped up a tree to keep from being spotted.

"I was impressed. I give it a six. Missing style, but surprised. Very good with the whole face thing," Damon said, making a sound that sounded like a dying cat, making it into a big joke.

"It's all fun and games, Damon? Wherever you go, people die? Not here, I won't allow it. After all these years, can we just give it a rest" Stefan said, already seeing a lecturer start because of our life choice, mentally rolling my eyes at him and if he wasn't so distracted by Damon, he might realize I was right above him, another reason he should be drinking people blood, it made him weak not to.

"I promised you an eternity of misery and I am just keeping my word, especially after what you did to my Ally," I perked up at the mention of my name which Stefan didn't even flinch to, no surprise there and wonder what he was going to do when he learns that I am in town, probably just kill me so I didn't blow his little secret to his precious doppelganger.

"Alexandra's dead, Damon. I never did anything to her," Stefan said and wanted to laugh and could see Damon holding back a laugh that Stefan actually thought I was dead or was just making himself believe I was, seeing anger roll off of Damon at the mention that he did nothing wrong to me, not even when he snapped by neck and that was only a small part of it.

"Don't play that game with me, little boy because you know what you did, and can never forgive you for taking away her life from her like that. She deserved the choice and you forced it on a child," Damon argued and not sure why he was bothering, Stefan had no remorse for me because he never saw me as a little sister, just the thing that killed our mom.

Stefan acted like he didn't mention anything about me, "Just stay away from Elena," he said, annoying Damon and could see his protective side coming out for me, but I wonder if Stefan really thinks I'm dead because I never wanted to visit or if he feels he needs to believe it for himself because sooner or later, the truth was going to come out what he really did and not sure how Damon was going to react.

Damon didn't even respond to that, "Where's your ring? Sun's coming up in a couple of hours, and poof, ashes to ashes," he said, acting all serious before letting out a laugh, "Relax, it's right here," Damon said, handing Stefan is ring back, not seeing the look on his face, but I did, hope it didn't turn into blood shed.

I watched his face turn and throwing Stefan straight across the other side of the property and it was definitely a good thing that the boarding house didn't have neighbors, knowing that this was partially about our brother's lack of response about me, but don't think he should bother anymore, it wasn't going to change anything.

"You should know better than to think you are stronger than me, you lost that fight when you stopped feeding on people. I wouldn't try it again and don't you ever speak so callously about Ally again or I'll drive a stake through your heart.

Non ti perdonerò mai per quello che le hai fatto. I think we woke Zach up, better say hi. Sorry Zach, "he said whistling as he gave me a wink, telling me he'll be right out.

I still had a bad feeling about us being here, especially when it came to Stefan's obsession to this girl and knew he was going to try to be a martyr, and now that Damon has made himself known, it could get ugly real quick, and I was the only secret weapon that Damon had against Stefan that might actually catch him by surprise, but when it comes to me, who knows what he would do.

Non Ti Perdonerò Mai Per Quello Che Le Hai Fatto: I Will Never Forgive You For What You Did To Her
