64; Lilly Marie Mikaelson

LILLY

The family ended up leaving me alone with Nik and Phoebe, as I laid on the bed staring at the celling.

What am I supposed to do now? Do I pretend that everything is the same? Pretend that I'm still a born Salvatore?

It's not fair not to tell Damon and Stefan, but then again it might break that little bond we have between us. No matter what they've done I always thought they were my brothers, and I loved them no matter what, but now...

I quickly sat up, making Nik and Phoebe look at me confused. "What?" Nik asked worried.

"I'm going out" I mumbled before rushing out of the bedroom and making my way out of the house.

For the first time in my life I didn't care what I looked like. My life has just done a whole one sixty turn.

It was only a couple of weeks ago we were all happy finding out that I was pregnant. And now I'm miserable, confused and angry.

How did things get so messed up?

I should be at home with my husband, daughter and brothers and sister, not walking around Mystic Falls not knowing what to do with myself.

"Lilly?" I heard my name been called, making me look in front of me.

I was shocked to see where I ended up. I was stood in front of the Salvatore boarding house.

"Hi" I mumbled as I stared at the house. I'd say my family home, but it isn't.

"Are you okay?" Stefan asked walking towards me. "Yep" I smiled at him, but he shook his head.

"No it's not" He whispered as he stood in front of me. "Why does everything change so fast?" I asked as I stared looked at the house behind Stefan.

"What's changed, Lilly?" Stefan asked concerned. "Everything" I spoke numbly, as tears fell down my cheeks.

"Lilly?" Stefan whispered panicked as I dropped to the floor into sobs, making him fall with me.

"DAMON!" Stefan shouted as I sat there in front of the Salvatore home sobbing my heart out.

"What now Ste-" Damon cut himself off before he rushed over to me, pealing me away from Stefan.

"What the hell did you do to her Stefan?" Damon growled, but I couldn't do anything to stop him, I was a complete mess.

"Nothing" He snapped back, as I clung onto Damon.

"Lilly" He whispered as he pulled me away a little so he could look at me. "Lilly. What's happened? What's wrong?" He asked confused, just as I heard a voice I never want to hear again. "She knows the truth"

"Mother" Damon and Stefan whispered shocked, but I couldn't even look at her.

"What's wrong with her? What did you do to my sister?" Damon snapped glaring at his mother.

"She's not your sister, Damon" Lillian snapped, making Damon and Stefan gasp. "Your lying" They both snapped.

I knew I should be the one telling them both, so I pulled away from Damon, and wiped my tears away and taking a deep breath.

"It's true. I'm not a Salvatore" I told them, making them both look at me in confusion. "Of course you are Lilly. We're practically the same person" Damon snapped glaring at Lillian, probably thinking that she had done something to me.

"I was left on the doorstep, Damon" I whispered looking between him and Stefan who was wide eyed.

"It's true" Stefan whispered making Damon stare at him in shock. "You're seriously going to believe this Stef?" Damon asked shocked.

"I read it in one of father's journals, but I never thought about it again, until now" He mumbled as he stared at me.

Nobody said anything, until Lillian broke the silence. "Time for me to go" She laughed before she sped off, and I couldn't even be bothered to go after her.

I looked at Damon and Stefan, who still looked confused. "I should go. Nik'll be getting worried" I mumbled before kissing them both on the cheek and speeding off back to the mansion.

As I walked in Kol, Phoebe, Bekah, Finn, Henrik and Elijah were all sat in the living room, while Nik was pasting around the room.

"Where the hell is she?" Nik snapped, making me realize how much he worries about me.

"I'm here" I mumbled, making them all snap their heads towards me.

"Are you okay?" Nik asked as he rushed towards me, pulling me into a hug. "Just hold me" I mumbled against his chest.

"Where did you go?" Phoebe asked, worried.

I sighed as Nik carried me over to the couch, sitting me on his knees. "I ended up at the boarding house, and lovely Lillian decided to show up. They found out that I'm not their sister and I left" I mumbled as I stared at the fire place.

What do I do now?

"What do you wanna do about the news?" Kol asked, earning a slap from Bekah. "I don't know. I wanna know who my parents were, and answers but it's been over One hundred and sixty years. I doubt I'll get my answers now" I shrugged.

"You never know" Bekah smiled at me, making me smile weakly back at her, before the room turned deadly silent, as I laid with my head on Nik's chest.

"I wanna move to Rome" I blurted out making everyone look at me shocked.

"What?" Finn asked confused. "I wanna leave. I want to go to Rome, leave this little town behind" I told him as I looked at Nik and the others to see what they thought.

"Sounds good" Henrik smiled at me. "When do we go?" Bekah asked. "As long as there's plenty of food" Kol spoke making me laugh. It was Kol all over. "Are you sure?" Phoebe, Elijah and Finn asked.

"Yep. I want to leave it all behind me. Start fresh in Rome" I smiled at them, before looking at Nik who was smirking at me.

"What?" I asked him confused. "I've sorted the plane out for tomorrow morning" I raised my eyebrows, earning a shrug of his shoulders. "I knew you'd want to leave" He winked at me, making me roll my eyes.

"Of course you did" I grumbled, making everyone laugh, just as there was a knock on the door, making us look at eachother confused.

Elijah looked at each of us, before walking off towards the door.

"Where is she?" I heard Damon shout once Elijah opened the door. "Excuse me?" Elijah questioned.

"Lilly. Where is she?" Damon asked again. "She's inside, and if you calm down you both may come in. She doesn't need any more stress" Elijah told him.

"Just calm down, Damon" Stefan spoke up. "Fine. I'm calm, now may we come in?" Damon asked, before I heard the three of them walk towards the living room.

I snuggled further into Nik, as Phoebe came and sat next to us both as Damon and Stefan walked in behind Elijah.

"When did you find out?" Damon questioned. "Today" I mumbled as I stared at him and Stefan.

"How?" Stefan asked looking at me with sympathy. "Your mother just turned up on our bloody door step, announced that I was left on her door step just after she had Damon and that her and Giuseppe decided to keep me and bring me up as his twin" I explained.

"And how do you know it's true?" Damon asked crossing his arms over his chest. "I spoke to a witch friend of mine on the other side. She said it was true"

Damon snorted. "Oh and you believe a dead witch. How stupid are you, Lilly?" He asked.

"If you want more proof I can do a spell in front of you to prove that its true" I told him making them nod.

I sighed, but nodded my head as I stood up pulled the coffee table over towards me. "I'll need both of your blood" I told them making them nod.

I bit into my wrist letting my blood drop onto the table, nodding at Damon and Stefan to do so too.

"Spiritus autem sanguine coetus, eadem ratione" I chanted before snapping my eyes open, as I watched Damon and Stefan blood move towards eachother, but mine stayed where it was.

"There's your proof" I whispered as I stared at my blood, which was alone.

"Well, would you look at that" Damon mumbled staring down at the blood before looking at Stefan then at me. "What now?" He asked giving me a weak smile.

"Now, I leave Mystic Falls behind me, and move on with my family" I told him, as I stood up.

"You know, you'll always be our sister, no matter who your real parents are" Stefan told me before pulling me into a hug.

Once he was done Damon pulled me into a hug himself. "What Stefan said" He laughed.

"So when do you guys leave?" Stef asked looking around at everyone in the room. "Tomorrow" Nik told them.

"So this is a goodbye for now then?" Damon asked looking at me. "Yep. I wanna find out about my birth parents" I told him, just as he pulled me into another hug. "Why is there two heartbeats coming from you?" Damon asked me, raising his eyebrows.

"About that. I'm pregnant" I told him, smiling sheepishly at him and Stefan. "Congratulations"

Once they both congratulated me and Nik and promised to keep in touch, they both decided to leave so we could get ready to leave for Rome.

I'm not a Salvatore. I'm Lilly Marie Mikaelson, the wife of Niklaus Mikaelson, and the mother of Phoebe Anne Mikaelson, and our little miracle.

And I'm proud to be Lilly Marie Mikaelson, and I always will be
