"We always expect life to be easier than it actually is. Why is that? Why do we assume we are owed happiness? Why do we act so surprised when things go wrong?"

Prologue

I'll be honest with you, I never expected something like this to happen to me because I never expected the impossible to become my reality. Who would believe me if I said that I don't belong in a world of fiction? The people in this plane of existence definitely would not. Especially since fiction is just that: make believe. It is something one can dream about, but never obtain physically. At least.. That's how I perceived it till now.

You'd think being placed inside a world you enjoy reading or watching would be fun, right? Who wouldn't want to speak to their favorite character or hell, fall in love. Who wouldn't want to have super powers or some singular world importance directed to them? It's an exciting concept surely, but sadly.. Even when gifted this opportunity, I still drew the short stick.

Just my luck.

When you hear "The Vampire Diaries" it makes you think back to the hardships, the drama, and of course the supernatural, right? The supernatural part was my favorite aspect of the series to be fair. And if you are indeed reading this then it's safe to say you also enjoy vampires, werewolves, witches, hybrids, and of course ghosts. Even in the original format there is more beings hiding out there in the shadows- at least from what I've heard since I never took the time to pick up the books. I know, shame on me.

To live in a world full of such creatures and be a mere human would be disappointing right? Already you are imagining being that plain Jane, living that plain high school life, or something close to it are you not? Don't worry, I have it off even worse than that. I'm dead. I am quite unenthusiastically a ghost. You see, how I came to be in this world is because I died, but I definitely did not expect to stay dead. I mean, who would want that? Why couldn't I be reincarnated like all the other lucky main characters in similar works of fiction?

Now, I'm stuck here watching events pass me by with zero interactions or opportunities to help. Despite already watching most of these characters go through such hardships, I feel even closer to them. It's hard to explain really. I just can't help but wish I could do something more than stand here. By now you are no doubt thinking that my story is probably the most boring thing to read, and I wouldn't blame you. I've pretty much accepted my fate at this point as well. However, just when I thought my day would be average boring routine, things went south really fast.

And thus, this is where the story truly begins.
