I Do NOT own the Vampire Diaries nor do I own Twilight...
Bella's POV
"Okay so run this by me again." I ask, Bonnie sighs and smiles at me. "We gotta get in and get out. I don't know how long she'll be out but we gotta get that moonstone from her." "Ok so Bonnie you're gonna use that spell that we've worked on right?" I said to Bonnie and everyone else just looked at us but didn't ask any questions. Currently Damon, Stefan, Jeremy, Bonnie and myself were sitting in the parlor discussing our latest plan of antics. Stefan was pretty upset because Elena had went to go talk to Katherine last night while we were all preoccupied. I swear that girl always finds loopholes to get into trouble. Personally if she wasn't my best friend's love I would have given up by now. "I might be able to lower the tomb spell long enough for you to get in there and grab the moonstone from Katherine." Bonnie spoke up, I immediately agreed to help her after Jeremy began to fight her on her opinion. I sighed as Jeremy offered to go in and get it, "Gee, thanks, you 16-year-old child. Why didn't we think about that? Why are you even here?" Damon replied with a snarky attitude. I wanted to laugh at his remarks but this was not the time. Jeremy just stopped talking and I looked at Damon, he smiled at me. "I'll be right back I need a drink." I grabbed the glasses and the bourbon off the bar and walked out of the room. Ugh, I had this strange feeling inside of me maybe it was just a headache from all these teenagers I was dealing with, yeah that's what it is.
I hungrily gulped the bourbon that was now in my possession. I had completely forgotten that I had the glass as I drank from the bottle. "Well are we drowning our sorrows now?" I looked up to see Stefan. "Remember that one night in New York? Bon Jovi concert? We got so wasted that night, you were in your underwear." I mentioned laughing, he smiled at me and started laughing. "Yeah I remember, I also remember us sleeping together that night." he said, I laughed and handed him a glass of the bourbon and we clicked them together. "Yeah what a wild night. I miss those nights. Do you?" I asked, he raised his eyebrows, "You miss us sleeping together? I had no idea." He laughed, I pushed him, "Hey you know what I meant." I said laughing at him. We both sighed as we took another drink, "Yeah I do actually. Things weren't so complicated then, everything made more sense." he said with a sad tone, I may not have liked Lexi that much but we were all friends none the less. "I miss her too. We may not have been eye to eye on certain things but she wouldn't want us to be apart. She'd want us to be like we were." I said to him, he nodded and we hugged. "After all this is over, we have got to do that again. I don't care where we go, just have fun. No more problems." I said to him, he nodded at me and we went back inside to see Damon yet again ripping Jeremy a new pair.
"What happened now?" Stefan asked, "Baby Gilbert here keeps offering to go in. I said no, do you think Elena would want her little brother involved in this?" Damon snarled. I sighed, "Ok look. Can we just shut up? Jeremy you are helping us a lot by making sure Elena knows nothing about this. Come on now Bonnie is gonna need something that belongs to Katherine to use the spell that I showed her. Stefan do you still have that picture?" I asked him, he left the room and soon came back with the photo of Katherine that was from 1864. Stefan held out the portrait of Katherine and Bonnie took it. Bonnie placed the portrait in a ceramic bowl. She dipped her fingers in a glass of water and let the water droplets drip from her fingertips into the bowl just like I had showed her. Flames sprouted from the bowl. Bonnie shut her eyes and began to chant a spell in Latin. Damon looked intently at the flames, "What will this do?" he asked. "She can turn the metal into ash. Blow the ashes on Katherine, and it'll incapacitate her for a minute or two. Long enough for you to get the stone and get out." I answered as Bonnie opened her eyes and watched the picture burn to ash along with the rest of us.
Damon, Stefan and I had begun packing supplies for the excursion and we were practically running around the house looking for various objects. "Still gotta get the torches" Stefan said, I nodded and walked out to get some. When I came back upstairs from the basement I saw that Bonnie was finally done but I overheard her and Jeremy arguing. I ignored the conversation and smiled, could they be any more of a couple? Walking out of the house I handed Stefan the torches that I had gotten and retreated to Damon's car along. After about 20 minutes we begin to drive to the church ruins where the tomb is, when we reach our destination we wait for Bonnie to arrive. She comes and apologizes for the wait, "Jeremy couldn't take the pressure, huh?" Damon says with a smirk evidently spread across his face. "He said he'd be here." Bonnie says worriedly, I smile and look at her raising my eyebrows. She looks at me then quickly looks away, I fight back a chuckle as we go down into the tomb. "Wait... I have this feeling. Um Stefan where is Elena?" I ask him, he looks at me worriedly and says he hasn't seen her. Just then Damon's phone rings and it's Rose. He quickly leaves and I go with him. I quickly tell Stefan and Bonnie to continue on, asking her if she thinks she can lift the curse without me. She nods and I leave.
"What's going on?" I ask Damon as we speed down the highway, "Elena. She has managed to get herself caught in yet another mess." I sigh and sit back as he drives to whatever destination. I look at Damon and watch his expression, he looks pissed, does he still love her? I shake the thoughts away from my head and wait for us to get there. As we approach the apartment building I smell both Rose and Elena's scent, quickly I follow it and Damon follows me. We go into the apartment and find Elena walking around with a glass of water in her hands. She gasps as soon as she notices us, Damon stalks over to her, "What are you doing here?" he hisses at her. She asked him the same question and then turns around as Rose enters the room, "You called them?" she asked her angrily, "I'm sorry Elena." Rose said with a hint of sorrow in her voice, "You said you understood!" she said angrily, "She lied." Damon and I both said to her. She looked between us and a very gothic girl came in and gaped at us. "Isabella Swan! Damon Salvatore!" she said in shock, "Get her outta here." Damon said annoyed by the fan and Rose pulls her out of the room.
Damon and Elena begin to bicker, I flinch at how much care he shows for her and I looked up at Rose. She smiled at me sadly and moved towards me as we stare at Damon and Elena argue. Finally they stop and we wait for Damon to compel Alice to go to sleep, I grab myself a drink and talk to Elena. "You know he's right." I said, she rolls her eyes, "Not you too. I thought you would understand too." I opened my mouth to talk to her but Damon came storming out. "Time to go. Alice is soundly sleeping and won't remember a moment of this horribly stupid day." We all get up and I walk behind Elena and Damon and Rose walk in front of her as we walk to the door. Damon was right, this was a horribly stupid day, hopefully Stefan and the others had gotten the moonstone. I just wanted to go home, shower and go to sleep and leave everyone else to their miserable lives.
Suddenly, the front doors busted open and three men walked into the apartment. Damon turned his head to look at them as Rose and Elena skid to a halt and stare at them. One of them steps forward, "We're here to meet the doppleganger." he says, Elena tries to step forward and thanks them for coming, Damon grabs her and hisses at her. "There's nothing here for you." Damon said to them, I begin to walk forward and try to push Elena behind me but she won't allow it. The man in the back suddenly drops to the floor, he looks dead. There he stands, Elijah is behind him, I smile at him and he has yet to notice me. The other two vampires looked back at Elijah. Elijah sped towards them, looking from one to the other. Rose gasped and quickly left the apartment. Elijah looks over at Elena and Damon and suddenly spots me. He nods at me and I smile at him, "I killed you. You were dead." Damon says with surprise, I chuckle lightly and he looks at me with a glare. "For centuries now." Elijah says and ignores him, the man looks at him and they begin to talk to each other. "Does anyone else know you are here?" Elijah asked him, I immediately know what he'll do. Elijah plunges his arm's into the two vampire's chest. They grunt as Elijah rips their hearts out. The two vampires fall to the floor, dead, and Elijah lets their hearts drop from his hands. Elijah looks at me one last time and smiles, "Isabella." he said to me, I smile back at him and nod. Damon prepares to fight with Elijah, but Elijah shocks them, by turning around and speeding out of the apartment. Damon looks back at Elena, both of them with shocked expressions on their faces. "Okay so how the hell do you know him?" Damon asks as Elena nods behind him, "He and I met through Klaus. We spent a summer together with him while I was about 16." I answered, Elena nodded but Damon just grumbled and we walked out of the apartment and back to the car.
The drive home had been silent and I was in the passenger seat watching both Damon and Elena exchange glances between each other. As we dropped Elena off at home, yet again Damon started pressing because of Elena's attempt to sacrifice herself. I just sat there silently, suddenly Jeremy came out and mentioned something about Stefan. I looked up at that and watched as Damon and Elena both sped to the car, we reach the tomb and I run in after Elena and Damon. She's almost in the tomb until Damon grabs her pins her to the wall. "Stefan's in there, Damon! How could you let this happen?" she yells at him, "What are you talking about? I was too busy saving you from your crazy kamikaze mission." he hisses back at her and both Elena and I flinch at this. She yells at him about the moonstone and they argue, Elena repeatedly beats her fist into Damon's chest, who keeps a calm face and restrains her. Elena becomes tired and desperately looks up at Damon. "Please?" she begs him, "Are you done?" he says and I finally come out from the shadows pretending like I had seen nothing. They look at me and Elena looks back at the cave and leaves with a snarl at Damon as she pushes past me. I don't get angry, I understand her, I would feel the same way if I had lost so many people. I admire her, Stefan walks up to the entry of the cave and waves at me, " I'll find a way to get you out." Damon says to Stefan but he shrugs. "Ah, it's all right. I'll handle myself. Bonnie has the moonstone. Work with her. Try to figure out how to de-spell it." he says to him, he then looks at me, "Keep Elena away from here." I nod but of course Damon just has to comment, "Yeah. Cause that'll be easy." I scoff, "I promise that I will protect her Stefan." I say and Damon looks at me with a glare. With one last wave, we leave and I get in the car with Damon.
It's a silent drive until he brings up the Elijah incident, "What the hell was with you and that Elijah guy?" he said to me, I looked out the window. "I don't know what you're talking about?" I said and he slammed on the break. "What did you sleep with him too?" he says with malice in his voice, I flinch and look at him. "Are you serious?" I say and he looks at me, I opened the door and get out of the car. "Of all the things you say to me, that was something I thought I'd never hear." "Bella get back in the car!" he yelled after me, I just kept walking, I walked through the woods and head towards the boarding house. I hear him get back in the car and slam on the steering wheel. He finally drives off after about 10 minutes and I just start walking again, suddenly I hear a noise behind me. "Hello?" I say, no answer, I just keep walking and then hear the noise again. Turning around I am faced with nothing, I turn back in the direction I was walking and suddenly there's a bag drenched in vervain over my head. I scream at the pain but pass out from the herb, the darkness takes me away.
AN: It seems when there's happiness the dark overrides it. I just had to be like Julie Plec with this. haha. Hope you like. Be gentle.
