Stefan Salvatore's daughter ~ Miracle

17. Back in 1864?

Anna's P.O.V.

I walk down the stairs to go help the vampires with stuff of this generation. I wouldn't have thought that all of them would get out. I only wanted my mother but I guess it might be a good thing.. I hope? I enter the living room of the "kind" woman, Mrs. Gibbons, and help Bethanne. Bethanne was one of them trapped under the church.

- Hey Bethanne, I tell her smiling and look at the TV. What are you guys watching? You guys have been watching the same thing the whole time? There are over one hundred and fifty channels. It's called a remote control, I show her as I change the channel. This button changes the channel. Hold it like this, I hand it back to her and walk to the dining room, finding Frederick, another vampire who was trapped under the church. He is feeding on Mrs.Gibbons.

- Did you get enough sweetheart? Asks Mrs.Gibbons to Frederick while she wipes the blood off her arm.

- For now, he answers her with a smirk.

- Anna, are you hungry? Did you want a little? She asks me kindly.

- No, thank you Miss Gibbons. Why don't you lie down for a while and get some rest? I suggest her smiling but Frederick cuts me.

- She's fine. Aren't you Miss Gibbons? He says compelling this poor woman. She nods before leaving the room. I exchange looks with him, frowning lightly.

Gillian's P.O.V.

After last night's events, I didn't really slept. I couldn't. So many questions are boiling and waiting for answers. Who was this man in the street? Why did he killed himself? How can Mr. Saltzman comes back to life with this ring? Was his wife a vampire? Does that mean Elena is related to me?

Around 3 a.m., dad came to my room to check if I was asleep. Of course, I wasn't. I was listening to music and humming songs. He entered my room and walked to my bed as I was staring at him. He gestured me to shift, so I did it and he layed down beside me, hugging me tightly against him. I close my eyes and keep listening to my music until it ends. I take off my earphones and look up at my father, still hugging each other. He puts his hand on my hair, stroking it gently.

- listening to some 80's song baby? He asks chuckling which makes me smile. Shouldn't you be sleeping since few hours?

- I can't dad, not after tonight, he doesn't reply and kisses my forehead. I can tell when he feels powerless. I pass my arm behind his neck and tighten my grip. Dad turns us so I am laying on his body and he starts drawing shapes on my back.

- do you remember when I used to draw little things on your back and you had to guess what it was?

- yes, I say chuckling lightly. I was always saying the wrong things so you would continue, I feel the vibrations of my dad's laugh coming from his chest. We stay silent as he keeps rubbing my back. I close my eyes and slowly drifted to sleep.

Few hours later, I wake up with my alarm ringing. I stop it and go take a quick shower before dressing up. I run downstairs and grab a blood bag in the refrigerator. Dad enters the kitchen and comes kissing my forehead. I finish the blood bag and run back upstairs to finish preparing myself. I braid my hair and apply my make up before spraying some perfume. I run back downstairs with my bag on my back. Dad was waiting for me. We exit the boarding house and vamp-speed to school. I let my father going to Elena while I go to my locker. I grab my book and close my locker before sighing tiredly.

- tired? Says a familiar voice behind me. I smile and turn around to see Tyler standing right in front of me.

- how did you know?
