Hey guys this is just a filler chapter of basically after Georgia and when she finds out about her parents and stuff but the decade dance chapter will be right after this.

"Leave me alone. Who are you?!" I shout. Tears stream down my face as branches cut through my flesh as i run past them. "Stop running." The person demands. I glance back but trip over something suddenly my whole body is paralyzed. I look up at the figure walking towards me with her hand outstretched. That's me? Oh shit. What the fuck, no that's not me, the reflection doesn't have any piercings. "Eileen?" I mutter and she smirks.

I thought she was supposed to be the nice one.

She's wearing this old time dress and her hair is in a braid crown.

"Wake up. Wake up." The words fade and become louder and louder. "Emily wake up." I feel myself being shaked.

"Emily." A hand touches my shoulder. I jump up and my elbow connects with someone's face. I was about to fight again but someone restrains my hands. I try to move against the restraint but I couldn't and the person's hands were on my face. I could feel their breath on my face. "Emily. It's me. It's Damon calm down." He says. My eyes dart around finally landing on his face. "Damon." I breathe out, he's looking at me with a confused look and my back is pressed against the car and we are just inches apart.

What the hell just happened.

His hands were cupping my face while his eyes swam with concern. "Yeah. What just happened?" He questions. I inhale a breath. "Nothing. I don't know." I lie and he lets me go. I brush past him noticing that we were at the boarding house.

I walk inside and upstairs where I assume Elena is. Before entering Stefan's room I take some breaths to compose myself from whatever the hell happened just now.

Breathe Emily in and out.

I walk into the room folding my arms over my chest and shifting my wait to my right foot. "You are not Katherine. You are the opposite of everything that she was." Stefan was telling Elena as i walk in there. "Why the hell do I look like Eileen?" I interrupt.

I had enough of this stupid lovey dovey soften the blow shit I just wanted answers especially after she was just in my freaking dream.

Elena and Stefan both ignore my question. "And when did you figure that out? Before you kissed me? Before we slept together?" Oh shit, i swear I'm watching one tree hill.

"Before i met you." He breathes out. What is going on?

"What is happening? What are you talking about?" I question running my hand through my hair.

Stefan inhales a small breath. "The first day of school. When we met. It wasn't for the first time, Elena." He turns his gaze to me. "And I didn't even know you existed until that first day of school. And I needed to know you.... both of you." Great more lies from Stefan.

"When was it?" Elena breathes out.

"May 23, 2009."

My breath catches in my throat.  A silent tear rolls down my cheek.

The day our parents died....

"That was the day your parents' car went off the bridge." Stefan states. I see the tears rolling down Elena's cheeks. "You were there?" She questions. It was more like a disbelief statement though. "Every couple of years I come back here, to see Zach and see my home." He starts explaining. "Last spring, I was out in the woods, by old Wickery Bridge. And I heard the accident. All of it. I was fast getting there, but not fast enough. The car was already submerged. Your dad was still...he was still conscious. I was able to get to him, but he wouldn't let me help him, until I helped you."

Elena lets out a sob while i try my best to keep mine in. "Oh my god. When I woke up in the hospital, nobody could figure out how I got out of the car. They said it was a miracle." Elena says.

When our parents died i was at some freaking party, drunk. The last conversation I had with them was some argument. That I can never take back.

My parents were drowning and I was drinking. God and I didn't even come home right away. I wasn't there for Jeremy or Elena or anyone other than myself.

"I went back for them. But it was too late. I couldn't-- I couldn't save them. When I pulled you out, I looked at your face. You looked like Katherine. I couldn't believe the resemblance. After that, I spent months making sure that you weren't her. I watched you. I learned everything that I could about you. And I saw that you were nothing like Katherine. And I wanted to leave town, but, Elena, I couldn't. I couldn't leave without knowing you. I'm so sorry that I didn't tell you. I wanted to. But you were so sad." Stefan continues.

Elena was glancing down at the ground not even looking at him. "Why do I look like her?" She questions. "Elena, you've been through so much." Stefan deflects.

"why do we look like them?" I but in. He stretches out his hand comfortingly but before he could touch me I step back.

"It didn't make any sense to me. You were a Gilbert. She was a Pierce. But the resemblance was too similar. And then I learned the truth." He pauses. "You were both adopted." He says.

Elena starts crying almost loudly and Stefan hugs her. I rush out of the room. I don't know if i was being dramatic or if I had every right to be mad. I wasn't really surprised that I was adopted though. Since I'm a witch or whatever the hell I am.  But I never wanted to hear the words out loud.

I reach a good way out into the hallway and begin to cry while walking. I brush past Damon on the steps who was now in front of me.

I jump up a little since he startled me. I try to hid the fact that I'm crying but clearly that was a dumbass idea.

"Gosh i told you to stop doing that stupid vamp speed thing and can you just get the hell out of my way please." I shout but my voice broke at certain parts. As he was distracted probably trying to figure out why i was acting like a crazy girl i walk around him and out the door.

"Emily you can't drive like this." Damon shouts from the door and in a second he was right next to me. I get into the car closing the door but I didn't lock it fast enough so he got into the passenger seat.

God why the hell does he care. Just mind your freaking business.

I turn the car on and press down on the gas peddle as hard as I can. I turn out of the driveway making the car let out a screeching noise.

"I don't think this is such a good idea Emmy." Damon says from beside me. I press my foot down harder now driving down a deserted road.

"Emily stop the car. " he demands.

I approach wickery bridge. I wasn't quite on the bridge yet but i was almost there. Now my breath is hitching, I'm breathing almost as fast as I'm driving.

"You should really stop the car Emily." Damon urges.

I let out a sob. "I told them I hated them." I mutter. "What?" He questions. M"Emily just stop the car okay."

I slam the brakes making Damon fly foward. I open the door and take off my seatbelt before getting out of the car.

Something sharp shoots through my chest and i fall to the floor crying. Damon holds me in his arms. My cries echoe through the empty street.

"I said, I hated them, and I never wanted to see them again... I didn't mean it, I was mad I didn't want this to happen." I argue.

"What happened is not your fault." He assures. "What was so different, they drove here most of the time, what was so different about that one night." I sob.

"And every now and then I speed through here, I speed all the time and nothing happens to me. That's not fair. It's not fair."

Why am I telling him all of this. This is not how it's supposed to be. I'm supposed to be the strong one.

"Come on. Let's get you home." Damon whispers.

We get home and he helps me out and walks up to the porch. I had calmed down now. Meaning I still felt guilty as hell but I stopped crying.

"Um.. I'm fine Jenna's already pissed I don't need her thinking anything else but thanks." I tell him.

He nods with a small sideways smirk before disappearing and I walk inside. Jenna is sitting on the couch and when she sees me she stands up with a very disappointed look.

She crosses her arms over her chest raising her eyebrows at me. Brace yourself.

"I don't set a lot of rules, Emily. Not with you or Elena." She starts. "I trust you to tell me the truth. Where were you? Why would you lie to me about it? I thought that we were closer than that." She snaps.

" in my defense Elena was the one who lied." I mutter avoiding getting in trouble but her scowl hardened an I scoff.

"Now is not the time you want to talk to me about lies." I mutter. She shakes her head with a disbelief look. "Don't do that. Don't turn this back on me. I didn't do anything." She says.

The door slams shut behind us and we turn around seeing Elena with her arms folded and eyes narrowed. She looked like she'd been there for a while. "Okay...Question: are we adopted? I trust you to tell us the truth too, Jenna. How could you not tell us? I thought we were closer than that." Elena snaps.

My face probably still looked like a mess since it was tear stained.

I shove past both of them to go upstairs. I didn't want to hear anything else about anything that happened tonight. "I didn't...they asked me not to." I hear Jenna defend and i walk into my room closing the door.

I don't bother putting the light on and i just sit on my bed. I lay down and tears spill out of my eyes and roll down my face. I feel something brush my face but I ignore it. Maybe it's the breeze.

"Emmy! I need money for pizza." Jeremy shouts from downstairs. I groan and get off my bed, digging in my purse to find some money.

"Hi. Um, keep the change." I say to the guy as i hand him the money. He rests the pizza on the table and then takes the money flashing a small smile and starts walking backwards out of the house. "Thanks. And you have yourself a good night." He turns leaving and i close the door behind him. I narrow my eyes at the door and then at Jeremy. "Did he seem familiar to you?" I question and he shakes his head unsurely. I still keep my eyebrows furrowed trying to think of where i know him from but nothing comes to mind so I just take some pizza instead. "What if no one else knew this pizza existed and we watched some movies." He suggests and I nod smirking. "Sounds like a plan."
