Welcome to The Vampire Diaries: Scriptum Sanguine (Written in Blood). This is a role play group dedicated to writing fan fiction about The Vampire Diaries as well as The Originals. You will find the world of Virginia and Louisiana within our depths.
'What was Elijah thinking?' Gia thought as she rubbed the back of her neck feeling the strain of her deception take a toll on her. Did Elijah really not see how bad this was? He could have called on any one of his vampire buddies to sit here and babysit Katherine whilst he and his brother were off meeting their new sister.
Flipping through the channel's trying to find something to watch to keep her distracted from talking with Katherine. She raised her bottle of beer to her lips and sipped on the liquid.
She could feel Katherine's eyes on her and it was making her uncomfortable "You know its rude to stare, anyone ever tell you that?" she asked Katherine without taking her eyes off the TV.

Katherine hadn't been happy that Elijah deemed she needed a babysitter again, but she hadn't protested out loud. Things were still a little off between the two of them and she was doing all she could to mend it.
Gia too had been acting off ever since she'd gotten here, giving Elijah one of her signature "are you serious" looks before the original had left. It made her think that Elijah was planning something and she didn't like that. Gia had this vaguely tense, terrified air around her, and it had caused her to stare at her for twenty minutes now.
"Well maybe if someone didn't look like they were caught with their hand in the cookie jar I wouldn't be staring," she replied. Katherine got to her feet, leaning over the back of the couch so that her head rested near Gia's held up by her hands.
"So...what does have the baby vamp all tense and like she's about to die?" She asked, absent-mindedly pulling a lock of Gia's hair between her fingers to flip it around.
Gia was bored of this so called reality show. Grabbing the remote again she began flipping through more channels using anything to keep herself distracted. She didn't want to be here, she should have been out with Josh and Aiden. But yet Elijah had called her and asked her to keep Katherine company whilst he was off saving the world.
Shifting away from Katherine feeling her play with her hair, she tucked the loose strands behind her ear as she turned her head to face Katherine.
"Well let's see. There is a powerful psychotic immortal witch on her way to New Orleans and is hell bent on killing anyone who stands against her. Yeah I am just peachy Katherine. Just another day in the quarter" she smirked sarcastically back.

Katherine scoffed, moving around the couch to sit next to Gia. She tucked her legs under her and leaned her shoulder against Gia. Their relationship had been rocky at first, she hadn't liked how Gia had been interested in Elijah. She'd gotten over it, mostly.
"Oh, Gia, we both know that isn't it. So, come on. Spit it out."
She narrowed her eyes slightly, and leaned forward to rest her chin on Gia's shoulder. She watched the vampire for a moment, and then pulled away with a shrug. "Fine. Don't tell me. I bet I could help though. I'm very good at fixing problems."
Being this close to close to Katherine was making Gia feel uncomfortable and all she wished right now was for Elijah to walk through that door so Gia could leave. Why had she even agreed to this? Moving further away from Katherine to the furthest end of the couch.
"I don't like people in my space" she answered before Katherine could ask.
Folding her arms across her chest and using the arm of the chair to lean again she tried to focus on the TV "You don't know what I am feeling. Marcel sired me, Klaus sired Marcel. So if Klaus dies, I die. Is that a good enough explanation for you?"

Katherine raised a brow at her. While her words were true, she was lying. She could tell. You didn't live to be over 500 years old without being able to tell these things. She shrugged, standing to her feet. "Well that is a problem, isn't it?"
Walking over to the fridge she pulled out a bottle of wine. Looking at, she pursed her lips and then nodded her head. Grabbing two glasses, she made her way back to Gia. Setting the glasses down, she opened the bottle and poured a glass for herself and Gia.
"Do you know what a Tell is?" She asked, handing Gia a glass.
Gia craned her head over her shoulder watching Katherine carefully as she went into the kitchen and returned to the room with two glasses and a bottle of wine. Alcohol was bad. But Gia had no alternative but to accept otherwise it would add more suspicion.
Accepting the glass of wine that Katherine had just poured and hesitated before she sipped slowly on the cool crisp liquid.
Frowning at Katherine's question "Is that some sort of Bulgarian thing?" she asked confused.

Katherine chuckled. "No. A tell...is something you do when you're lying."
She raised her glass to her lips, taking a small sip as she watched her. Licking her lips as she lowered the glass, she began again. "It's different with each person. Some blink rapidly. Others keep their eyes down. Some mess with their hair. Flick their eyes to the side."
She tilted her head, and smiled. "Elijah always looks to the left when he is lying. Its a subtle change, most people don't realize it. I choose to believe that everything thay comes out of Niklaus' mouth is a lie. But my point...when you're 500 years old you tend to be able to pick these things up."
Gia gulped and finished the wine and placed the glass on the table as she listened to how Katherine was describing Elijah's lying face. How could she know that? Pushing herself up out off the chair and turned to Katherine.
"Look, Elijah asked me to come and babysit you. I didn't have to. So what if I am lying? It isn't any of your business *she lied* So get Elijah to call me when he comes back because if I wanted to be part of an interrogation I would have stayed at home" she snapped at Katherine.

Katherine took another drink, smiling at Gia as the vampire stood up. The front door closed suddenly, blocking Gia's escape. Katherine turned to face Gia, tilting her head as she raised the glass again.
"How about you sit and we continue this little chat? See...I think you're hiding something from me and I don't particularly like that. We're friends Gia, and friends tell friends their secrets."
It was probably nothing, but it had peeked her interest.
The door slammed in front of her which caused Gia to jump. She spun around on her heel keeping her arms folded across her chest. She was trapped.
"And what are you going to do if I don't? Use some witchy woo on me? If we're friends then you will let me go and then you can explain to Elijah why I left" she sighed.

Katherine shrugged. "That is what I should do, probably. But...Elijah wanted you here, and my loyalty to him surpasses anything I feel for you."
She gave her a smile, and raised the glass to her lips once again. She drained the contents, and placed the glass on the table. Moving towards Gia, she crossed her arms over her chest.
"So I will keep you here and bug you until you crack. And believe me...I have all the paitence in the world."
Gia held her ground but she was ready to escape if came to it. Even if it meant out of the window. Taking a step back as Katherine approached her. She was too close and Gia didn't like that.
"Your loyalty to Elijah? Really? Is that what they call it? You stake him when he declares his love for you and you just run away from him? That's what you call loyalty?" she scoffed "Let me tell you something about loyalty...Where were you when he needed someone to watch his back against one of the most powerful witch covens in New Orleans. Where did you go? Back to that small town with two vampire lovers of yours" she laughed.
She was getting angry but she couldn't stop herself "When Elijah needed me I was there to help him. Cause that is what friends do Katherine. I was there for him when you weren't" she hissed.

Katherine opened her mouth to speak, but stopped as Gia began to throw accusations at her. She narrowed her eyes at Gia, her fingers curling into fists at her side. Elijah had told her that? The comment about Damon and Stefan was the last straw and her hand snapped up connecting with Gia's jaw with a solid punch.
"You know nothing about Elijah and I, Gia," she hissed. "I've managed to ignore the way you look at him, and I know how you feel. But at the end of the day, remember who he goes home with."
Gia's head shot to the side as she tasted her own blood as Katherine's hand collided with her jaw. Using her fingers to wipe away the blood and feeling her lip heal instantly. She closed the gap between them both so that she was practically in Katherine's face.
"Well he didn't go home with you that day you disappeared did he?" she snapped and saw the expression on Katherine's face "He went home with me and I'll tell you what, he's got skill. That move he does with his move and his hands. All night long" she added.
