Tell me sweet little lies

“niamh.” lizzie mused, smiling at the other as she gulped down more from her drink. she was definitely a bit tipsy but it always put her in a better mood than usual. “thank you sooo much for your help with the event planning the other day.” the siphon said. “i’ve got it all planned now, well most of it.” the words were like babbles but she stopped herself. “do you have a spot for the comet? lets to find a spot.” 

[niamhmonroe]

Niamh was reluctant to come out that evening but yet here she was drowning herself with alcohol. It was one of the many distractions Elijah had spoke of and well so far it seemed to be working.  As she heard her name called she was quick to turn on her heels. Realising the blonde was slightly tipsy a smile laced her lips. ‘’I didn’t do much’’ she chuckled. ‘’But you’re welcome it’s all going to look amazing.’’ she spoke softly taking another sip of her drink. ‘’I think most people have placed themselves around the bonfire, unless you’ve spotted somewhere else?’’

Do you trust me? // Niamh + Stiles  Ft @stilesfcknstilinski​

Niamh was trying so hard to come to terms with what she had become. What she had been forced to become. Each day was proving more and more difficult than the next. She figured with Elijah and all his experience and knowledge it would become much easier for her and yet, she just felt worse than she had. Trying to focus on things that weren't the sounds of blood pumping through peoples veins. The more she tried to ignore it the more prominent it became. It’s why for the past couple of days she’d kept herself inside. She felt like night time was safer with less people around. Oh how wrong she was.  The lack of people was a bonus but it also meant it was very easy for her to pick out if a human was wandering. As well as the scent of blood. As she moved closer to the town square a strong whiff moved up her nose. Her eyes instantly turning dark. Unable to control her body from rushing to the source. A sleazy man; a mere drunk. But it didn’t mean she was going to feel any better about what was about to occur. Her teeth piercing his neck, as she grabbed onto his body. His screams very brief not taking long for his body to become limp in her arms as she drained the blood from him. The weight of him falling down was enough to snap her out of it; pushing herself away from him. His body falling to the floor with a thud.  Tears instantly flowing from her eyes as she cried out, trying to remove the blood from around her mouth, but she was simply covered in it. She backed up against the wall in the alleyway were they were hidden and began to sob. This wasn’t control this was the exact opposite. Was it always going to be like this? She shook her head trying to pull herself together, her sobs still leaving her lips as she crawled over to the male. Trying to find some form of life within him.. ‘’Please..please wake up...i’m sorry...I didn’t mean to.’’

“So you learn to swim.” He answered the first metaphor with what was probably a simple sounding answer, though he logically knew it was anything but. He came to a stop near the edge of the line, not wanting to get her too far from the school. Turning to face her, he kept his gaze on her face and nodded slowly. “You won’t. Blood bags won’t do forever.” He answered honestly, sure that it was better than lying. “If you’d like, i’ll help you. You need to feed from a live source. And if you’re afraid of hurting someone, it’s best to have someone there that can stop that from happening. If you’d like, of course.”

The brunette smiled slightly at the metaphor he followed up with before letting out another sigh. She knew what he was going to say but part of her hoped that something different was going to leave his lips. Sadly not. As he spoke about helping her, she raised her brow. ‘’You’d help me?’’ she questioned tilting her head slightly. ‘’What would I have to do in return of your help? I cant deal with being in debt to someone for eternity.’’

Truthfully, Elijah wasn’t much of a mentor. There had been a few different souls in life that had spoken to them. Ones that drew his attention and he’d stepped in. But it wasn’t often. They were few and far in between. And while he likely should have stayed out of it in this case, leaving the poor girl to suffer and risk a school being decimated felt cruel. It felt like something his brother, or worse, his father would do. Caring for the weaker was something that just wasn’t done. Which was why Elijah sought the chances to do it. “Niamh.” He repeated the name, nodding slowly  “Believe it or not, the choice wasn’t given to myself or my siblings either. You’re not alone.” He reassured her before thinking over the rest of what she said. “Killing people.. The longer you live, the harder it is to avoid. Though it isn’t impossible. And as far as what works for you..” The older male shrugged his shoulders, glancing towards her. “Sometimes. You’ve got to find what works for you. And in some cases it’s just age that helps.”

The younger vampire was focused on the older male, trying to figure him out a little more than the information he’d already given. How long had he been doing this? did he feel as alone as she did right now? will that feeling ever go away?  As he said the choice wasn’t given to him and his siblings her brow rose. So it wasn’t just him it was his siblings too? ‘’I feel like I am. Like i’ve just been dumped in the middle of the ocean and i’m being completely engulfed by the waves.’’ she took another deep breath and closed her eyes for a mere second before opening them again. ‘’I’m trying....i’ve been stealing blood bags from the hospital to try and stop me from hurting anyone, but i’m not going to go forever without doing that am I?’

Finally registered sight of the girl, the raven haired young witch then listened as she spoke, her stomach forming a shallow pit once again. No matter how much time passed, thinking of her father still left her feeling empty. Lashes fluttered as her gaze then moved to the ground. Cassie recognised the woman.. Niamh.. The girl that the man whom held her affections would constantly go on about. Jealousy wasn’t a thing Cassie felt, it was more so disappointment. She understood of course, the woman was stunning. If this was any other setting, and if she and Caleb were not so close, the raven haired woman may have even decided to flirt with the girl. Clutching the flowers tightly, Cassie then quickly nodded her head. “I will be, thank you. You’re right it uh.. Never gets easier. My dad he uh.. Passed.. Two years ago and it still feels fresh but I know he’d hate it if I was just stuck being sad over his loss forever so uh- I guess that’s what helps me not being a wreck all the time.” The woman joked, laughing lightly to herself as she tucked a few strands of dark hair behind her ear. 

Niamh knew more of Cassie than she should for someone she barely knew. Her and Celeb were very close and he was always mentioning her and talking about her when he got the chance to, not that she was seeing much of Caleb recently as she was avoiding him due to her whole vampire situation she didn’t want to tell him about, or rather didn’t know how to tell him about. The brunette listened to the other female speak and she could feel her pain, every part of it. She pressed her lips together looking down for a moment, before her gaze returned to the female. ‘’I’m sure he appreciated your company and stories every once and a while, and that you’re checking in on him.’’ she gave the girl a soft smile. ‘’Hey half of the time i’m a wreck from just not having a morning coffee, it’s the little things.’’

He moved out of the building by her, falling into step and allowing his gaze to wander to the students that were scattered about here and there and the treeline in the distance. “My name’s Elijah.” He kept the ‘who’ simple, not sure that busting the full backstory out at that moment would be best. “And I just did. When you get to be as old as me….” His voice trailed off and he looked towards her, allowing his face to shift and the veins to fill under his eyes just for a second, to silently reassure her that they were the same. “It becomes a second nature, spotting others of your kind. Just like the bloodlust. It gets easier. What works for some doesn’t work for others. Alcohol, distractions, pure will, it depends.” He shrugged slightly, glancing back her way. “But it does get easier. When were you turned? If you don’t mind me asking”

The brunette watched him as he spoke, he seemed very calm like this was something he’d been doing for a long time, so she wasn’t going to question him. At least not yet. Her eyes widened as he flashed his eyes before her which gave her all the clarity she needed and that her instincts were right to trust him. ‘’Will I have to try as many different things as possible?’’ she questioned. ‘’I’ve not....killed anyone and that’s a good thing right? I don’t want that to happen. I can’t have that happen.’’ she shook her head the panic beginning to set in again before she took a breath. ‘’A couple of months ago. I didn’t want this....I didn’t get given a choice.’’ Some guy she’d been seeing for a long time, he made a mistake. He went too far with her but it was as he had feared so her body was already prepared in case. But he fled before any explanations could have been given to her. She’d known about the supernatural through her friend Caleb. But now she was one of the things he’d said he’d protect her against and she didn’t want to let him down by telling him she’d somehow managed to end up here. She looked down for a moment before looking back towards the male. ‘’Niamh is my name by the way.’’

truth be told, niamh was right in the sense that lizzie had a vision and never really accepted anyone else’s input unless it was her mothers. more than anything she wanted the validation of know she had picked the perfect pieces, though she already knew it. the blonde then looked over at the other. “i am flexible on things like napkins and which photos to have printed for the event.” 

The brunette sighed. She knew nobody would change Lizzie’s mind she admired her in that sense. She always knew what she wanted and what to do and nobody could get her to change anything. Or not that she knew of. As she said what she was flexible on she rolled her eyes slightly before laughing. “Listen just tell me what you want and where and I’ll help. I don’t want to stray from your vision.”

compaession​:

After closing her locker, Elena began walking to biology class. Being back to school proved to be more overwhelming than she’d originally expected. The day consisted of spacing out, being called on and not having an answer. All her classmates didn’t laugh at her but they pitied her, which was far worse. When she saw Niamh leaning against the wall, she furrowed her eyebrows. Lips parted open but as she spoke, the brunette simply nodded. “Are you sure? I-I can walk you to the nurse’s office?” 

Niamh looked up at the girl. She was very familiar except this time she had the urge to just rip her throat out. The sound of her heart pounding inside of her head as she heard the blood move through her veins.”I’m fine-“ before she could finish responding Niamh sped off into the toilets and locked herself into the cubical to try and distance herself from the girl and calm herself down. She was scared. She didn’t know what to do.

[niamhmonroe]

     “ I think I look fine . “ She replied bluntly before shaking her head at the girl . “ It’s fine . We all have bad times but no excuse to set others on that path of frustration you are feeling . “ The viking brunette looked around them , before looking at her . “ Would you like to talk about it ? Often times when talking to a stranger it lessens the feeling . “ 

Niamh was taken back by the girls blunt words before letting out a sigh she probably wasn’t helping herself being so rude. As she asked to talk about it Niamh vigorously shook her head. “This isn’t something to be talked about. I shall be fine I just need to get out for a little bit get some air”

Elijah’s eyes narrowed just slightly at the girl before him, working to asses in his mind how new she was to all of it. And while he couldn’t pinpoint a date, he’d be willing to bet it was within the last few months. Almost within the weeks if he had to guess. Far too soon to be in a crowd of people. All it would take was one slip and a cut of a finger for her dark nature to take over and she’d wind up revealing them for what they were and harming a lot of people. “Come,” He nodded back towards the door. “Walk with me outside. Let’s talk.” Away from the rush of teenage hormones and possible victims. “You’ll breathe easier.”

The brunette wasn’t sure who he was but yet she felt she could trust him. It had been happening for months now and if he could help then she would be more than grateful because this was torture. As he spoke she looked in the direction he nodded and slowly began to walk towards the exit before long she was outside. She took a deep breath for a couple of moments before feeling a slight relief. “Thank you” her voice was soft as she slowly but surely calmed down. “W-who are you?” She finally quizzed tilting her head slightly. “ how- how did you know?”

With a bouquet of flowers in her grasp, the raven haired beauty traipsed through the cemetery, going to the place she always knew to bring her clarity, to speak to her father. Of course, he couldn’t speak back but.. It still gave her even a small form of peace to be able to commune with him. Cassie didn’t know how things worked on the other side, she didn’t even know if he’d know that she was there, that she was thinking about him every single day - or whether he was watching over her.. Protecting her. God, she wished he was. The young witch felt truly vulnerable without her protector. Hearing a snap of a twig, she whirled around, eyes wide as she peered into the mist. “Really? Of all the places to hang out, you choose the cemetary? So creepy.” Cassie spoke up, then rolled her eyes, holding the flowers tight to her chest.

Niamh hadn’t been to see her grandmother in a long time. She feared she had disappointed  her by what she’d become, even if she didn't have a choice when it came to it. Standing besides her gravestone she sighed before lifting her head after saying a goodbye to her grandmother. As she walked away she noticed someone standing across from her and attempted to not disturb them but her efforts didn’t work as the females voice filled her ears, letting out a sigh.’’Sorry- I was trying not to disturb you, I was just visiting my grandma over the way.’’ she paused for a moment fiddling with her fingers in the process. ‘’I know the whole grieving thing never gets easy but I hope you’re okay.’’

  She had been watching, noticing the girls anticipation, the nature of her stance, it all led Nadia to a similar hypothesis. She knew blood lust when she saw it, and had been through it many times in her five hundred years of life. She almost empathized, but as she always did, feelings could not get in the way – she couldn’t allow herself to become consumed in the lives of others. “The fact you had to say that proves you’re not.”

Niamh never wanted to make anything obvious but she was getting to the point where it was painfully obvious there was plenty wrong. She’d avoided feeding and it hadn’t really got her anywhere because it all had become worse and she didn’t want what happened last time to happen again. She let out a sigh looking towards the female and laughing slightly. ‘’Thats a fair point, it’s nothing some food and a movie cant fix.’’

      Tatia doesn’t make it a habit of getting into people’s head . In fact she hated it when she was younger when she couldn’t control it and she would only use it against her enemies . Though rarely used her powers thus no one really knew aside from her sons and brothers . “—You truly do not look like it , let alone clearly feel it .” 

The brunette sighed as the other spoke. ‘’Gee thanks, you know you don’t look too great yourself.’’ she rolled her eyes trying to play it off. It was something she had to live with so she’d have to learn how to deal with it no matter how extremely difficult it may be for her. ‘’Sorry i’m having the worst day.’’

“Of course you are,” Elijah lifted his hands in a slight surrender motion, really just making the attempt to make sure that she knew he meant no harm. It wasn’t like he didn’t understand. While his bloodlust had long since been under control, it didn’t mean that it wasn’t difficult at the beginning. And regardless of age, he wasn’t so far gone to remember what it was like. The all encompassing thoughts were enough to drive anyone mad. “Bloodshed and terror reigning in the middle of a busy day can be a little unsettling.” He glanced towards her, dropping his hands and tucking them into his pockets. “Might I suggest a distraction? Something else for you to focus on. I’ve found that helps in the more difficult moments.” Of course, alcohol too. Then again she was certainly not old enough for that. 

The brunettes eyes widened as the older male spoke of bloodshed and terror, she was shocked more than anything. How could he tell? what did he know? could he help her? So many questions moved through her mind as her eyes moved down to the floor.’’H-how do you-’’ she couldn’t get the rest of her words out before letting out a sigh. ‘’I’ve tried several distractions, all I can hear is the blood moving through peoples veins, and I constantly want it. I feel like a monster’’ she almost whispered getting a lump in her throat.

The young mechanic was truly a sight to behold, cheese and chilli covering his fingers as he sat in a booth alone, wolfing down the loaded fries as though someone was about to pull the plate away from him. Sauce covering his face he could feel a pair of eyes staring at him, causing the man to look up, dark eyes wide in a seemingly innocent expression. 

“What? I’m hungry.” he grinned over at the evidently disgusted onlooker, shrugging. “You try working all day after forgettin’ to bring lunch.”

[niamhmonroe]

Niamh rolled her eyes at the sight of her best friend covered in cheese and chilli. She couldn’t help but stare because if she said anything she was afraid she’d be inhaled along with the food. As he spoke she chuckled shaking her head. ‘’What have you been deprived of food your whole life? slow down you’re going to bite your fingers off. And contrary to popular belief I don’t think your limbs will grow back’’

“i’m going to pretend like you didn’t just suggest that.” lizzie said, her hands clasping together as she looked at the other. it was beyond her how anyone could think that tulips were a classy enough flower for an upscale event. “we’re not deciding this for a spring fling dance, this is elegance meets the royal family.” the siphon mused, then turning back to the catalog of flowers she was assigned to for the event planning company she interned for, she wanted to get a jump on college applications. 

[niamhmonroe]

Niamh sighed at the females words rolling her eyes slightly. ‘’Well not everyone has the same taste; and its spring so I do believe they’re very in at the moment.’’ she shrugged. ‘’But what do I know, clearly you’re a lot more skilled in this area, but you did ask my opinion and well I gave it to you so if you want my help you’re going to have to listen to my many bad choices because if you didn’t like that you’re probably not going to like many of the others.’’

“feel free to join.” willow said, gesturing to the empty seats at her table in the grill. the place was full and she hadn’t seen it so packed other than the evenings of friday and saturday, but she wasn’t just going to allow someone to wait for their meal in the corner. “I insist, i have plenty of room.” the vampire added, smiling then taking a bite from the food she had ordered. 

[niamhmonroe]

Niamh was trying to distract herself from the bloodlust, course sometimes it wasn’t as prominent as others. She found indulging in things such as food and recently alcohol helped but not too much. It would get to the point where she would feed. Trying to refrain from taking from the actual vein but it was hard to steal blood from the hospital with all the whispers going around. She let out a sigh at the amount of people in the grill but perked up as she heard a females voice. Smiling at the gesture. ‘’If you don’t mind, i’m starving and I would eat standing if it meant I got some food.’’
