The Other Gilbert (1) TVD

Plan B

"Your both idiots" the words left Emma's mouth as she watched as Tyler and Matt were picking up a table and headed towards the doorway, which it obviously wouldn't fit through. When she said she'd come by to the Lockwood mansion she didn't think she'd get roped into helping set up for the masquerade party, but watching the two boys made it a little more tolerable. Both boys and rolled their eyes at the girl who just stood a watched and occasional stuffed food in her mouth. "Yeah well I'd like to see you start helping" Tyler grunted and she smiled.

"Sorry, but I'm a princess and princess don't get their hands dirty" she joked causing Tyler to role his eyes but smirk. Matt let out a laugh "well, your highness, will you be going to this masquerade?" Matt asked and she let out a hum and gave a shrug as she smiled, they made eye contact and he smiled too as he backed out the room still holding the table. Tyler furrowed his brows as he looked to back then aback at Emma.

But the smiles were shot lived when the table started to jitter in their hands "wait, wait, wait, Tyler!" The tale skidded against the door farmers and Emma covered her mouth and let out a snicker. "Boys! Be careful with that, it's from the 1800s" mrs. Lockwood came and scolded them as she began making her way over "Tyler!" She began but he cut her off "Mom, we got it" he assured her and Emma let lout a laugh and she followed along.

"She's this a axing girl one minute, and then, this raging, jealous freak the next" Matt said as he began defending down the latter, lanterns in his hand. Emma rolled her eyes to herself, Tyler just had to ask about Caroline's and matts relationship status. But she listened, none the less. Every now and then she had bumped shoulders with Tyler who bumped hers back with a smirk. "Look, you know what I think of Caroline Forbes. She's an insecure, neurotic, bitchy little twit"

Emma rolled her eyes again and Tyler trying and succeeding at being a dick "hey!" Matt said, he stilled liked Caroline, though he was having some trouble with his emotions at the moment. He still had feelings for her. "But the girls got heart" Tyler continued "she's means well."

"Sometimes you jut have to take the good with the bad" Emma pitched in as she glanced down at her opine as she received a text message. "Yeah." Matt agreed quietly, he glanced at Emma who replied to a text in her phone then back at Tyler "I'm going to go get an extension cord. I'll be right back" she said before walking way. Tyler turned towards Emma who put her phone down.

"Can we talk now?" He asked her and she nodded letting out a sigh. "How come you were so quick to believe me?"

Emma let out a shrug "if I told you, what i know...." She shook her head from side to side as she went to finish that sentence but then she saw her little brother approaching them and closed her mouth. "I'm going to get food. Find me later" she mumbled before waltzing away causing Tyler to furrow his brows in her sudden mood change. That was until Jeremy approached him and then it was all clear, Emma givers was having family problems.

"anyone seen mason?" Tyler asked as he walked into the room where, Matt, Stefan and Elena were sorting through masking for the masquerade. "He, uh, took off. Said he wasn't sure when he'd be back" Stefan told him and Tyler sighed. "And Emma?"

Elena looked up hearing her sisters and Stefan furrowed his brows, while Matt let out a chuckle re bearing where Emma went off too. "The princess is sleeping in your room" Tyler rolled his she's, it seemed like and Emma thing to do. "Said she was all tried out"

"From what? All she did was eat and watch" Tyler said and Matt shrugged and amused look on his face "so weird" he muttered before heading to the direction if the stairs so he could go wake up and Emma and they condo finally finishing their talk.

He entered his room to see Emma tucked into his bed with her face buried in his pillow, though he didn't have to bother to wake her up seeing as she turned her head and saw him standing in the doorway. "Hey." She said tiredly, she was actually tired, "sorry, I just really needed sleep, I barely got any last night" he waked into the room closing the door behind him.

"It's fine. I know the feeling" she rolled over so he could sit next to her and he did. "So, how come you believed all the crazy I told you?" He asked and she rolled her eyes and untucked herself from under the blankets. "Long story short..." She trailed off not knowing if he knew about the vampires but just in caste she went with the second reason as to how she knew so much. "The founding family's have these journals, the story's of out ancestors and I read Jonathan Gilbert's from 1864 and he knew about your family" she said and he nodded taking it.

He didn't want what he was born with, after what mason told him, he didn't want none of it, he just wanted to live his life and not having to worry about the what ifs. Something Emma could agree with she wanted to be free of the dramas and problems that surrounded her, but the answer was clear for both of them. That they were just pawns in a game or in this bigger picture.

"I dint want this" Tyler stated "I wish things could just go back to the way they were, like last year..." He said trialling off "it was a good year" Emma let out a chuckle "true." She said and he looked at her "minus you not being here" he added with a charming smirk and she playfully rolled her eyes and shiver his shoulder.

"I'm serious" he said and she rose a brow at him "ever since you came back... Before all this werewolf crap. Things were actually really good" she nodded, though she couldn't remember half of it, she remember what it felt like to be by him, to have his touch anywhere on her. "Yeah..."

"Is the anything going in with you and Matt?" He asked changing the subject, he rendered earlier how they smiled and looked at each other. How they both came in his truck. How close they got ever since things needed between him and her. She furrowed her brows "what? No. He's just a friend." She said and he nodded "why, do you ask?"

"Because.." He tilted his head debating in his mind, before going for it, he earned towards her and bushed his lips abasing hers, a tiny smile came to her face as she had been waiting for it. "This" he whispered and tilt his head slight as his lips gently met hers and there it was, that moment where everything felt like it was going to be okay, where everything was oaky. Because as long as those two troubled teens were together, the rest didn't matter. At least not for those moments.
