The Gilbert Sister // The Vampire diaries [1]

A Few Good Men

Chapter 18

"Her name is Isobel Flemming"

I overheard Jenna talking with Elena in the kitchen. When I walked in they were staring intently at a computer screen. "Who is Isobel Flemming?"

They both looked up "My mom" Elena said "She's my mom" She repeated but this time sounding like she was trying to convince herself

"How did you guys find her?" I asked and Elena pointed to Aunt Jenna.

"She's been looking online for her and she found her. She was a cheerleader just like me." Elena said smiling.

"We found her friend. She lives one hour away" So close to us. 

"Are you gonna go?" I asked Elena.

"Yeah and I was hoping you could come with me?" She asked.

I nodded "Well of course I'm coming. I'm you're sister"

I knocked on the door of the large white house. It was surrounded by trees but no houses. After a few seconds of waiting a middle aged woman with blonde hair looked at us with a welcoming smile. "Trudy? Trudy Peterson?"

"Yes?" She looked at Elena then me.

"My name is Elena Gilbert and this is Nina" Elena said "I wanted to talk to you about Isabelle Flemming"

Trudy's face doesn't change any emotion when Elena talks about Isabelle. "I haven't heard that name in years. How do you know her?"

"Well I- do you know if she ever gave a baby up for adoption?" Elena asked nervously.

Trudy's face changed into a brighter smile but this one was fake and gave me shivers. "My god. You're her daughter" Elena nodded. "I was just about to make some tea. Would you like some?" She back away from the door.

"Sure" Elena said smiling.

"This smells really good" I say taking in the sweet scent of the tea.

"Yeah it does. What's in it?"

"I know this smell" I say quietly.

"It's a plant I think I don't know" Trudy said nervously.

"Vervain" Elena said.

I looked at Elena confuse "Elena what are you talking about?"

"You know don't you?" Elena said starring at Trudy.

"Vervain?" I asked "You didn't even invite us in did you?" I said.

"I think you girls need to leave" she said quietly.

"But Trudy-"

"Leave!" I jumped in my seat.

"Elena lets go" Elena got up with me.

"Trudy please if you know anything-" Elena begged.

"Leave!"

We walked straight out the house and Elena drove away fast.

"I'm going home I don't want to talk to anyone right now" Elena said.

"Do you want me to talk with Stefan?" Elena smiled and hugged me.

"You will?"

I rolled my eyes "Sure"

"Thank you"

"Have you talked with Bonnie lately?" Elena shook her head.

"I'm gonna try calling her tonight that's why I'm sending you" I nodded understanding.
