Disclaimer: I don't own the Vampire Diaries! I just own my OC, Juilet Jordan Gilbert, and any other characters I make up along the way!

Summary: Juliet Gilbert has awoken from a coma that she's been in for an entire summer. It would have all been great, if the last two years of her memories hadn't been stripped from her mind. Now she's awake in a world where her and her sister apparently hate each other, she's supposedly in love with her sister's ex-boyfriend, she spent the last year hooking up with their British enemy, and to wrap it all up, an immortal being that had been tormenting them since the end of the past year is beginning to wreck havoc in Mystic Falls, bringing along with him a whole string of dangerous events.

What better place for Juliet to figure out who she was for the past two years than college?

Author's Note: My new thought on a Vampire Diaries story! Hope you enjoy it!

PS, as a little change, this is starting in Season 5. Don't worry, backstory and everything is eventually going to be revealed, bit by bit.

EDIT: I'm changing it so that Juliet is faced by a brunette Aimee Teegarden!

Enjoy!

I heard a lot of argument outside of my hospital room, as I had been hearing for the past couple of days since I woke up.

It was between one of my best friends, Matt Donovan, and my adoptive sister, Elena Gilbert. I didn't hear it too well, since they're either told to keep their voices down because I was trying to rest (but I don't see the point; I had been in a coma for the past three months, I didn't need any more resting) or they left to another part of the hospital.

Anyways, the argument was always about me, and who got to take me home. From Elena, I always heard, "She's my sister, I should be able to take care of her", and from Matt, I heard, "She's trusted me to take care of her if it ever came to her health". I was mostly on Matt's side, because if I made that decision before I clocked out of the world, I was still mentally coherent.

Elena and I were very close. We weren't exactly a year apart, so we were the same age and in the same year at school. We were also both adopted. Well, separately, I mean. My parents, Grayson and Miranda Gilbert, told me that I was adopted when I turned fifteen, and when I went snooping to try and find some information about my birth parents, I found out that Elena was adopted too. I never told me parents that I knew, and I never told Elena. It didn't matter to me. She was still my sister, and as a fifteen year old, that was all that I saw.

I mostly slept, watched TV, or listened to music in the hospital. I hadn't had many guests, just Elena, Matt, and our brother Jeremy, so I was pretty much bored out of my mind. But according to Elena, there were quite a few people excited that I had finally woken up after my freak accident.

It was Jeremy who explained to me what happened. It was right around the beginning of summer (the night of my graduation, I was told) when I left. I was supposedly going on a summer trip with my friend, but something happened, and a few days later, a local park ranger found me passed out on the ground, unresponsive, but somehow still breathing.

And then I was brought here, where I had been monitored for the past three months. I finally woke up a few days ago, and it was apparently a couple days before I was supposed to start college. Elena was trying to pull some strings so that I could stay in college, but Matt thought I might need a few more weeks to rest up. They both eventually decided to leave it up to the doctors, and they said that as long as I was taking my medicine and not experiencing any dizziness or any other negative symptoms, I was okay to go.

The door to my room opened, and I looked over to see Matt walking in. I smiled when I saw him, "Hey, Matty."

"Hey, Jules," He said as he sat down next to me.

"What's the verdict?" I asked.

"What do you mean?"

"Oh come on," I said. "I've been listening to you and Elena argue for the past couple of days. Who do I get to go home with?"

"Well, legally, you signed over all medical decisions that couldn't be made by you over to me, but Elena keeps insisting that because you're her sister, you should go home with her."

"Why did I do that?" I asked. I didn't remember any of that.

Matt looked a bit confused until it hit him. "Right, you wouldn't remember. Your memory, remember?"

He was right right. When I woke up and asked what day it was, it apparently wasn't September 10, 2009. After some tests, they eventually came to the conclusion that I had no memory of the past two years, which was really bad, according to Jeremy, my information guy. A whole lot of stuff happened during the past two years, but apparently Jeremy couldn't tell me in a hospital, where there were, in his words, humans. Right, as if things not human existed. And that's what I believed.

Until Elena walked in and revealed she was a vampire.

It took a lot of explanation, but Elena finally filled me in on the fact that these types of supernatural beings existed, and I apparently found that out two years ago, so of course I didn't remember.

Anyways, back to what Matt was saying.

"Back to the point?" I said.

"Not surprisingly, the hospital went with what the patient wanted. So you get to come home with me," he said, a huge smile on his face.

I smiled too. "That's good. When we get home you'll have to tell me what happened between me and Elena. And what's happened in the past two years."

There was a twinkle in Matt's eyes. "That's gonna be sooner than you think."

I straightened up, though it hurt a bit when I did. "Does that mean what I think it means?" I asked excitedly.

Matt smiled. "Yup! You get to go home tomorrow!"

I squealed, and Matt and I hugged. Tomorrow, I would go back to the life I supposedly had.

Tomorrow, I would be Juliet Jordan Gilbert again.

The next day, after Matt filled out like a billion forms, he and a nurse helped me outside, and I was in his car, ready to go home.

"I can't believe this," I said as I buckled my seat belt. "A week ago, I was dead to the world. And now here I am, ready to go home. And start college tomorrow," I said the last part with a little groan.

"Hey, you're the one who wanted to go," Matt said as he began driving.

He was right, though. My doctor, Matt and I agreed that it'd be best for me to get back into a normal lifestyle, and what better place to start than college?

Matt and I pulled into his driveway, and he quickly got out to grab my bag. I carefully got out of the car, and I looked at the house, trying to remember the place. I sort of did, though a lot of the memories were from when we were younger.

"What do you want to do for dinner?" I asked Matt as he and I walked up the driveway into the house.

"Well, I've been meaning to talk to you about that," He said as he unlocked the front door, swinging it open.

There were suddenly a bunch of voices calling out, "Surprise!" And noise makers, as well as clapping.

I laughed as I took in the sight of my friends and family, some of them wearing party hats, standing in front of a banner that said, "Welcome Home."

"Welcome home, Julie!" My best friend, Caroline, said as she ran over and enveloped me into a hug.

"Thanks, Care!" I said as I squeezed her back. "Gentle," I reminded her, and she peeled herself off of me. "Still a bit sore."

"Right," Caroline said, stepping back a bit.

"What is all this?" I asked as I looked around the room. Elena, Jeremy, Caroline, Caroline's mother, Liz, and a raven haired man with blue eyes standing next to Elena were the ones here, though I had a feeling a few people were missing.

"No one in that blasted hospital would let us anywhere near you," Caroline explained. "So I thought this would be a nice alternative. No way was I not going to see you before school started again." She grabbed a hold of my arm. "Now come on! We have your favourite foods all lined up!"

Everyone stayed for a little while, and we all talked (they even managed to get me caught up on some stuff-like who the man with Elena was, whom I had learned was her boyfriend, Damon Salvatore) and we even danced a little. Then it was late, and Liz insisted that if we were going to get to Whitmore College on time tomorrow, we would all need some sleep.

After a quick goodbye (and an especially awkward one from Elena, though I didn't know why) everybody left. There was a question (actually there were quite a few) nagging at the back of my mind, so I decided to wait and ask Matt when everyone was gone.

And now that everyone was gone, I sat down with Matt in front of the TV in the living room to watch a bit before we went to bed. "Matt?"

"Yeah?" He asked.

"Can I ask you something?"

"Sure, Jules."

I gulped a little, afraid of the answer I'd get. "Where's my aunt Jenna?"

I felt Matt freeze beside me, but I continued on. "I mean, I'd expected her to be the one to get me out of the hospital, since she is my guardian. And I didn't see her today at the party. Where is she? On vacation?"

Matt turned the TV off slowly before turning to face me. "Juliet, there's a lot of stuff that happened in the past two years."

"And that includes?" I pressed, still afraid.

He gently took my hands in his. He looked me right in the eyes as he said, "Your aunt Jenna is dead. So is your uncle John."

Tears immediately filled my eyes at the news of my family members's death. "What?" I asked as I felt my face get wet. "How? When? Why?" I continued as Matt pulled me into a hug. I buried my face in his shoulder as he held me. "What happened?" I asked, my voice muffled.

He pulled back. "That's a really difficult answer, Jules. I don't want to be the one to tell you it."

"Why not?" I sniffed, and Matt handed me a tissue so I could blow my nose.

His blue eyes lit up as he said, "I'll be right back." He zoomed out of the room and up the stairs, and came back just as fast, holding a book in his hands. He held it out in front of me, and I took it.

"What is it?" I asked.

"It's your diary," He said, sitting back down. "You write down everything in it. I'm sure the best person to tell you what's been going on in the past two years is you. You also have a whole bunch of other ones."

I looked down at the book, then to Matt, then back down at the diary before I pushed it off of my lap. "I'm not ready."

"What?" He asked.

I shook my head. "I just woke up from a coma, Matt. I found out that I have no memories of the past two years, and then I find out that my aunt and uncle are dead. I just wanna start college tomorrow fresh. I'll get back to my past soon enough. But for now, what's in the past, is in the past."

Matt didn't look that okay with it, but slowly nodded. "Okay. That makes sense."

"But I do have something else to ask you," I said, and he nodded. "Why do Elena and I hate each other? Why do I live with you, and not with Elena and Jeremy in my own house?"

Matt winced. "That's a very long story."

"Is my entire life just a very long story?" I asked as I sunk back into the sofa.

Matt laughed as he sunk back with me. "Pretty much."

I smiled as I said, "You don't have to tell me why I don't live with Jer and Elena. I'm sure I've written it down, so I can just read that part later. But if Elena and I are to stay in the same dorm room, I want to know why the tension between us in a room is thick enough to be sliced with a katana."

Matt sighed as he said, "You're not gonna like the story."

I shrugged. "It's my life," I said. "I'm not gonna like the story either way."

Matt filled me in on what happened between me and my sister, and I must say, if this was a TV show, it's ratings would probably be through the roof.

So apparently sometime last year Jeremy died (but he's still alive?) and Elena shut off her humanity because she couldn't deal with the emotions. And then she burned our house down, without me knowing until I came home and saw the only home I ever knew up in flames.

And Elena without her humanity on was apparently a real bitch, and she tried to kill me by stabbing me in the stomach with a tree branch. Yup. She actually did that.

I didn't know what she was trying to accomplish by killing me (according to Matt it was because she felt like it) but Damon found me and healed me with his vampire blood (yeah, he's a vampire too. Apparently there was this whole history behind Damon and Elena and to be honest after I heard that Elena tried to kill me I really didn't care) and I didn't feel like I could trust Elena with my life again.

So I asked Matt to be the one to make medical decisions for me if I was were incapacitated.

And that was why whenever Elena and I were in the same room together she looked extremely guilty. Whatever, she was gonna have to learn to live with it if we were gonna be living in the same dorm room.

Anyways, it was the morning now, and after Matt filled me in on what happened last night, I suddenly remembered that I was going to college, and that I was not packed whatsoever, so he helped me quickly pack up a bunch of things that pretty much took all night. I had a bit of sleep, and took some of my meds to speed up my healing process. Damon offered to let me drink some of his blood, but there was a line of so much creepiness I could take, and he had crossed it.

"You sure you have everything?" Matt asked as we walked up to the front door, me dragging a large suitcase behind me as Matt pulled two smaller ones with him.

"Yes, Matty-boy," I said with a smile. "I've double checked, I promise. And even if I did, you'd probably drive up to Whitmore to drop it off, wouldn't you?"

"Yeah, I would," he said. I opened my arms wide for a hug, and Matt pulled me in close in an extreme bear hug.

"We'll talk every day?" He asked.

"Yup," I said, nodding my head against my shoulder. There was a honk outside, and Matt and I pulled apart. "That's gotta be Caroline. Take care of yourself, Matt. I'll visit soon, I promise." With another hug I was out the door, ready to start afresh.

The campus of Whitmore College was alive with the sound of eager freshman students as Elena, Caroline, and I began grabbing our stuff to take to our dorm room which we'd be sharing with our other best friend, Bonnie Bennett. Who, according to Elena, has been on vacation all summer and was gonna be a couple days late to start the semester.

"You're dreaming about Stefan?" Caroline asked Elena incredously after my sister spilled the beans.

"They're not dreams," Elena clarified. "It's more of a feeling. Maybe I should call him."

"So he can hear how happy you are with Damon?" Caroline asked, in an annoyed tone. "Absolutely not." She turned her head towards me. "You gonna help me over here, Jules?"

"I would," I said, shaking my head. "If I knew who Stefan was."

Caroline and Elena both snaped their heads towards me. "Uh, he's kind of your best friend," Caroline said.

"Well I must have met him in the two years that I have forgotten, because I don't remember him," I pointed out.

"Right," Elena said, shaking her head. "He's Damon's brother. I used to date Stefan, and you two are best friends."

"Okay," I said, with a nod of my head. "Well, if you used to date Stefan, I don't think it's a good idea to give him a call."

"What are you guys saying?" Elena asked. "I feel like there's something wrong with a friend of mine and I should just ignore it?"

"Elena, he'll call you when he's ready to," I said gently.

"And a whole summer isn't enough for him to be ready?" She asked.

"Well, you did dump him for his brother," I pointed out. "That's got to cut deep."

There was a bit of an awkward silence, and it looked like I went too far. "I'm sorry, Elena, I shouldn't have said it like that." Though it was totally what I meant. What girl dumped her boyfriend to date his brother? I mean, I had gone looking through my phone to see pictures with lots of people, including Elena, Jeremy, Jenna, Caroline, Bonnie, Matt, and even Damon. There was one person that I didn't recognize, a boy with bronzish hair and soft green eyes, who I had assumed to be Stefan. When it came to looks, I would have chosen Stefan over Damon. And from what I had heard from Caroline, Damon wasn't a good person. I had yet to actually heard a so called 'evil deed' (Caroline's words, not mine) of Damon's, so I was not going to judge until I had heard anything.

"No, it's okay," Elena said, before she quickly changed the subject. "So I'm just supposed to live with this nagging pit in my stomach?"

Caroline rolled her eyes with a sigh. "Okay, Elena, that pit is called guilt. You feel terrible because you broke Stefan's heart and that nagging feeling is your brain telling you that you have made a horrible-yet completely reversible-mistake."

"Nice try," Elena said as she spun around to stand in front of the two of us. "Besides, Stefan and I left things in a good place."

You call not talking for an entire summer after you dumped him and picked his older brother over him a good place? I had wanted to ask, but restrained myself. Things between Elena and I were already rough from the whole 'her trying to kill me' thing, and I just wanted things to get back to the way they used to.

"It doesn't mean that he hasn't been thinking about you shacking up with his brother all summer long," Caroline said.

"Oh, seriously, Caroline?" I said, covering my ear with one hand and balancing the clothing basket in the other. "I did not need to hear that." I actually felt a bit offended that Elena was more concerned about herself and her ovaries than about her sister dead to the world in a hospital. I tried not to focus on it too much, though.

"Neither did I," Liz said as she walked by us. "Mom ears. I'm still here."

Elena just made a 'my bad' face, and Caroline just laughed as we turned around to look at the campus.

"We're in college," Elena stated.

Caroline grinned as she said, "We actually made it. All three of us." She gestured to me. "And Sleepy over here was a miracle."

I just shook my head at her with a laugh. After a bit of silence, we all turned around to find our college dorm room, a bit of a skip in our steps.

"You brought a Panini Press?" Elena asked Caroline, holding the contraption up.

All Caroline said was, "Small appliances by the fridge."

Elena just blinked before she passed it over to me, and I took it over to put next to the fridge.

"That's the last one," Liz announced as she brought another box in. "All right. Now give me a hug before I change my mind and bring you home with me," Liz told Caroline as she went over and wrapped her daughter into a hug. "You can call as much as you want."

Caroline just laughed at her mother. "Mom!" She said. "We'll be fine." They pulled apart and Liz went over to hug Elena. She exchanged glances with me as she said, "This is where your dad fell in love with medicine, you know," She said as she pulled away from Elena and wrapped me into a hug, which I gratefully returned. "He would be really proud to see the both of you here."

"Thanks, Liz," I said as we pulled apart. She stroked my face before cupping it. "Take care of yourself, okay? I don't want to get another call saying that you're passed out somewhere in a forest."

I laughed, pulling Liz's hands from my face. "I promise, Liz. I won't pass out in forests. I might pick a cave next time."

She just laughed as she gave her daughter a happy look. Caroline burst into laughter as she said, "Go! Before I change my mind and make you stay."

"I'm going! I'm going!" Liz said as she backed over to the door. "I love you." She began to shut the door behind her as she said, "Bye, girls."

"So, roomies," Elena bubbled. "I think we should drink to something."

"I couldn't agree more-" Caroline took a dramatic pause as she flipped the top of her suitcase open. "Roomie."

"I am on board for this," I threw in.

She reached into her bag and produced two little bags. A closer inspection revealed it to be bags filled with blood. I almost got scared, until I remembered that Elena and Caroline (who had informed me on the way up to Whitmore) were vampires.

It was not that easy to digest, you know.

"Wait, what am I gonna drink?" I asked. "You two are the vampires."

"Ugh, I forgot that we're living with a human," Caroline groaned as she walked over to the mini fridge. She pulled out a can of diet Coke, and handed it to me. "This okay?"

"It's fine," I said as I popped it open. I felt a little sick to my stomach when I saw the blood swish in Caroline and Elena's hands.

"To the next chapter of our lives," Caroline announced, and they tapped their blood bags against each other. I just slightly raised my can, and I was about to drink from it when there was a knock at the door, and faster than lightning, the two vampires tossed their blood bags back into the suitcase and turned around just in time for a girl our age to let herself into the room, holding a basket of her stuff.

"Hey!" She said excitedly.

"Um, who are you?" Caroline asked.

"I'm Megan," She introduced. "Your roommate."

"So your current boyfriend Damien-" Megan started, but Elena cut her off with her correction of how to really say Damon's name.

"-Is your ex's brother?" Megan continued.

"Stefan," Elena clarified.

"And you and Stefan are friends by three months ago he left without saying goodbye?" Megan inquired.

"I thought the exact same thing," I mumbled to her under my breath. We were all taking a small breaking from moving, and I guess since we were supposed to live with each other, we ought to get to know each other a bit.

"You think I should call him?" Elena asked for maybe the fifty millionth time that day. If she asked again, I am fully prepared to strangle her.

"No way," Megan answered as Caroline threw in, "Absolutely not!"

Elena just brushed it off with a shameful smile as Megan changed the subject. "Do you have a boyfriend, Caroline?"

"I do," My friend answered gleefully. "His name is Tyler. He had to miss moving day, but he'll be here for the first day of classes."

"Assuming he registers," Elena started. "And picks a dorm. And buys books." Jeez, way to play the bitchy card, little sis.

Megan quickly changed the subject again by looking over at me. "And you, Juliet? Do you have a boyfriend?"

Not unless I had a boyfriend in the two years I had forgotten. Besides, I felt like I had re-met anybody I was supposed to. And I hadn't had a chance to read my diaries yet, either. "Um, no, actually. It's kinda hard to get yourself a boyfriend when you've been in a coma all summer long."

Megan gave a tiny gasp. "Oh my God! Are you okay?"

I shrugged a bit. "I'm here, aren't I?"

"So did you forget anything? Maybe you did have a boyfriend, you just can't remember," Megan said.

Well, then. Not really the confidence booster I needed.

"Speaking of minding one's own business," Caroline said, spinning around on her heel to face the three of us. "Let's talk roommate ground rules." She crossed her arms as she began. "Privacy is very important to me."

"Same here," Megan agreed.

"I have low blood sugar," Caroline kept going. "My diet's finicky, so keep your paws off of my stuff."

"We'll split up the shelves," Megan proposed.

"And if I suddenly get up to leave or disappear for a while, don't follow me," Caroline asserted.

"Okay," Megan agreed lightly. "Sounds good."

"Good," Elena said. "Then we agree on everything."

"Excuse me ladies," A deep voice that had to be male said. We all ceased conversation and turned around to see what the guy wanted. "Party at Whitmore house tonight," He declared, handing a flyer to Caroline.

I had to stop myself from rolling my eyes at the dude's obviousness. He was trying not to check Caroline out, but he was really struggling with it.

Elena looked over at the boy, then to Caroline. "We'll be there," She told him. Caroline looked at Elena, a confused look on her face.

"I hope so," He said, his gaze directly to Caroline. She just watched, unfazed as he left.

Elena put her arm around Caroline. "I love college," She said with a laugh.

I had a few errands to run, and when I came back to my dorm, I saw Caroline raiding the drawers where Megan was keeping her stuff. She turned around to check out who it was, but just sighed when she saw it was me, and went back to raiding. "Did you notice that Megan's juicer takes up all the small appliance space?" She informed us, clearly very annoyed. She opened another drawer as I went over to grab a bottle of water to take my medicine with. "She has an entire drawer dedicated to organic linen."

"I thought the whole 'privacy' thing was your idea," I reminded, popping the pill into my mouth and taking a swig of the water to wash it down.

Caroline angrily shut the drawer and turned around. "Maybe if she didn't take such long showers, I wouldn't have time to go through her stuff." She turned back around and kept going through Megan's stuff. "I mean, how can you be okay with a fourth roommate?"

"Because we're trying to be functional," Elena argued. "And being functional means we need friends."

"We have friends," Caroline said.

"I think she means human friends, Care," I clarified.

Caroline spun on her heel. "But we also need personal space," She pointed out. "I mean, what if we suddenly get a craving and I want to eat her?"

Elena just shook her head with a smile as Caroline continued. "Or our blood bags go bad because we can't store them in the mini fridge." She went on to open the mini fridge. She pulled out one of Megan's water bottles. "And what the hell is protein water?"

Elena and I both shrugged as our blonde best friend screwed the cap off. "Well, maybe if I drank it all, she'll want to move out."

Caroline tilted the bottle to her lips and began to drink as Elena got off of her bed to protest, but the next thing we knew, Caroline was on the ground, coughing her brains out.

I jumped off of my bed and fell to her side. "Caroline, are you okay?"

"Vervain," She wheezed out.

"Vervain?" I repeated. "What's vervain?" I ask, looking to my information people.

Elena was about to open her mouth to explain when the bathroom door burst open, revealing Megan, who had a towel wrapped around her body. "What's going on?" She asked. She grabbed another towel from a rack outside of the bathroom an walked towards Caroline. "Are you okay?"

Elena and I helped her up as Elena answered for her. "Yeah, she's fine."

"What happened?" Megan asked as she dropped the towel to the ground to soak up the water.

"Water, just went down the wrong pipe," Caroline cleverly lied. "I'm okay, really." She handed Megan her water bottle back. "I shouldn't have touched your stuff. I'm really sorry."

"It's fine," Megan dismissed. "It just sounded like someone was dying out here." Which Caroline pretty much was.

"I'm glad you're okay!" Megan piped, before turning around to go back to her shower.

As soon as the door was shut Caroline furiously whispered, "She knows who we are! She drinks vervain water!"

"Nobody has told me what vervain is yet," I poinedt out.

"Right," Elena said, turning to me a bit. "It's poison for vampires." She turned back to Caroline. "That doesn't mean she knows about us."

"Seriously?" Caroline protested. "We share a bathroom with this girl! What if she's a hunter, and tries to stake us in the shower? Or, she steals our daylight rings while we're asleep, and we burst into flames when the sun comes up?"

Elena grabbed Caroline's shoulders. "Do you think that if she was a hunter, we'd be dead by now?"

"I think we should lock her up," Caroline went on, ignoring Elena. "You know, let the vervain get out of her system. And then we compel her to forget about us."

"Caroline, I'm not kidnapping our roommate!" Elena protested. "The best way to convince her that we're normal is to act normal. Do...normal, human...freshman-y stuff."

"You guys are vampires," I said. "You can't get that normal."

"You're not exactly helping, Jules," Elena said with a groan.

"Okay, if we were to act like normal freshman," Caroline interrupted us. "What would we do?"

A small smile inched its way to Elena's face, and I knew what she was thinking.

There was excited chatter and blasting music throughout the neighbourhood of Whitmore College, but I wasn't sure it's not an abnormal thing. I mean, this was a college. I had been to a frat party (against Elena's wishes, but I had simply stated that she wasn't the boss of me and after the party she was the one helping me nurse my hangover) and loud music wasn't uncommon.

"I am going to get so drunk tonight!" I said giddily. It had been an entire summer without one drop of alcohol, and I was also single and ready to mingle.

"Just go easy, okay?" Elena asked. "I know I technically don't have the right anymore, but you just woke up from a coma, I don't want you to do anything to hurt yourself."

There was a bit of an awkward silence until it was broken by a voice.

"Hey, I remember you," the voice said, and we all turned around to see the guy from earlier, that invited us to the party.

"Hey," Elena said, her eyes flickering over to Caroline. "Flyer guy."

"Jesse," He corrected. "But Flyer Guy works too."

"I'm Elena," My sister started. "This is my sister, Juliet, and our friend, Caroline."

Caroline was avoiding Jesse's gaze, and I gave her a subtle nudge. She had to at least be polite. And hey, if she wasn't going to go after the guy, I would. He was really good looking, and seemed funny.

"Hi," Caroline quickly gave, before turning around to walk way. Elena and I just gave Jesse apologetic looks before going after her.

"Caroline, wait up," I said, and finally fell into stride with her.

"Could you be nice to the guy?" Elena asked her.

"I'm with Tyler," Caroline simply said.

"What, and that automatically means that you can't just talk with other guys? Be polite to other guys?" I asked.

"And, no offense, Care," Elena started, and I had to stop myself from rolling my eyes. When people start sentences with "no offense", then the person was going to get offended. "But are you? I mean, he hasn't called-"

"From the mountains of Appalachia?" Caroline finished sarcastically.

"I'm just saying, I don't want you to get your hopes up thinking that he's coming, when he hasn't been showing much interest," Elena pointed out.

"Did you tell Damon that you've been having dreams about Stefan?" Caroline retorted, and I couldn't help the snort that escaped me.

"What? What was that?" Elena asked, turning around to face me.

"I'm sorry Elena, but Caroline's got a point," I said. "Communication is very important in a relationship, and if you are having dreams about Stefan, then you should tell Damon." Before Elena could freak on me, I turned to Caroline. "And you should call Tyler to see what his plans are. That type of communication is just as important, Caroline."

"Yeah, like you're the best judge of communication," Elena muttered, about to walk forward.

Excuse me? She was not getting away with that that easily. "I'm sorry? When have I not communicated in a relationship?"

"You and Klaus sure communicated very well," Elena said.

"Wait, who's Klaus?" Did I actually have a boyfriend?

"Elena, not tonight," Caroline insisted. "Let's just party and have fun tonight."

"You know what?" I said. "You guys can party without me." I turned around to leave.

"Jules, wait," Caroline started.

"No," I said, not even bothering to turn around. "I just don't feel very well. I'm gonna go get some rest."

"I'm sorry, Juliet," Elena said. "I shouldn't have said that. I'm sorry."

"Elena," I said, spinning on my heel. "It's not you. It's just been a long week. I was in a coma a week ago. I just want to get some rest. I'm not in the partying mood."

I turned around, and kept walking. Who was Klaus? And why was Elena being all pissy? Vampires didn't get their time of the month, did they?

I didn't feel like going back to the dorm just yet, so I just pulled out my cell phone and took a walk. I had being going through my contacts, to see if I could recognize any names. I could recognize all of them, except for Stefan's and Damon's.

According to Matt, the best person to find out what's been going on is myself, and when I packed for college, I decided to pack all my diaries since September 10, 2009. They were saved from the fire because I apparently I ran inside and managed to save them (nearly getting myself killed in the process) but what could I say? Memories are important to me. And now I was glad that I saved them.

I had just made it back to our dorm when two figures began rushing towards me. "Juliet!" I heard.

I turned around to see Elena and Caroline. "What?"

"Oh, thank God you're okay!" Caroline said as both girls pulled me into a hug.

"Why would I not be okay?" I asked as I pulled back.

They both shared uneasy looks as Elena finally said, "Megan's dead."

After they both calmed me down because I freaked out so bad, Elena explained that they were on the phone with Megan when she suddenly fell from a tree, dead.

They were about to lead me into the room because I was suddenly shaky on my feet, but I could feel Elena freeze in her tracks. She was staring at the door, so I followed her gaze to see that the door to our dorm was cracked open.

Elena went in first, and quickly took a survey of the room. "Someone's been in here."

"Well no shit, Sherlock," I said as I followed behind her. "We all have keys, and we all made sure the door was shut when we left."

"That's not the point!" She protested as Caroline went over to the desk and turned a lamp on.

"Megan's tablet is gone," Caroline revealed.

"Along with her so-called suicide note," Elena added.

"Wait, I thought you guys said a vampire did this," I said.

"We did. And it was," Caroline said. "But the school is covering it up as a suicide?"

"Why?" I asked as Elena took Megan's phone from Caroline to look in.

"This just doesn't make any sense!" Caroline groaned. "First, the roommate we're not supposed to have might know about vampires, and then happens to be killed by a vampire, and now the school is covering it up. "I mean, seriously? Who is this girl?"

I just shrugged as I watched Elena's eyes bug out of her head. "Whatever's going on, it's not just about our roommate," She said.

"Then what is it about?" I asked.

"Us," She revealed, and I scrunch my eyebrows in confusion.

"What do you mean?" I questioned, and Elena turns the phone around for me too look at. "That's Megan," She said.

"With your dad," Caroline finished.

I rolled my eyes. "I can remember that much, guys."

In the end, we all just decided to get some rest, because classes start the next day. It was still kinda early though, and I wanted a few answers before I go to bed, so I grabbed the diary that dates back to September, 2009, and my booklight. Elena opted to take a shower before bed, and Caroline sat in her bed.

I had headphones stuck in my ears as I read, but I could hear subtle sobs coming from my right, where Caroline's bed was.

I pulled my head phones out and turned my head to see Caroline on the phone, most likely listening to a message. I strained to hear, and I faintly heard our friend, Tyler Lockwood's voice. I guess sometime during the last two years the two had begun dating.

But why was Caroline crying? He wouldn't dump her over the phone. If he did, I will personally go to the Appalachians and kick his sorry ass.

"Are you okay, Caroline?" I asked her.

"Yeah, I'm fine," She lied with a sniffle.

I gave her a look. "Caroline?"

"Yeah?"

"Do I have to kick Tyler's ass?"

She laughed through her tears. "I'm really glad you're here, Jules. I'm really glad you're awake. I've missed you."

I smiled. "I missed you too."

Caroline suddenly went a bit serious. "The whole thing with Elena bringing up Klaus was uncalled for. She knows that. But you know her. When she gets pissed, she doesn't like to hold back."

"I know," I said. "I just hope I'll figure out who Klaus is soon," I said, holding up my diary. "I've been slowly finding out details of my life."

"Well," Caroline said. "Good luck. There's a lot of stuff that's happened in our lives. I hope you're ready to find out. And If you have any questions, just ask me."

"I will," I said, settling back into bed with the book. "Night, Care."

"Goodnight, Jules," She replied, turning over in her bed. "See you in the morning." And soon enough I could hear her soft snores.

I waited until Elena was done her shower and in her own bed until I reopened my diary. It dated back to August, when my parents died, but now I had finally made it to September 10, 2009.

The day my life supposedly changed forever.

Here goes nothing.

TBC...

How do you like it?

I promise, all her history will be revealed with time. A lot of it is actually going to start in the next episode, True Lies, which I will hopefully get up soon.
