~Pilot~


Evelyn's P.O.V.

I did not want to move, but then again I had to, it was the first day of school and I had to move. It had been four months since my younger fraternal twin sister Elena and myself had been in a car accident at Wickery Bridge, and when our parent had died by drowning in the river several feet below.

Afterwards we all began to be depressed, Elena started to write more, distracting herself, Jeremy our little brother started using drugs, Aunt Jenna had cried hundreds of times but tried to hide that as she needed to be strong to look after us and myself, I started drinking, relying on alcohol to fix it all. But today things would be different, new day at school and it was time to started fresh, that is unless I ran into Tyler and he'd ruin things, and that's another thing, just before the accident, I had caught my boyfriend kissing Vicki, Matt's sister and so I had broken up with him on the spot, so I had been depressed by that too.

I hoisted myself out of bed, and walked to the bathroom that I shared with Elena as the bathroom was connected to my bedroom as well as hers. The door was open to Elena's room and I could see she was sitting at the window writing. I smiled slightly before closing both doors that led to our rooms before hoping into the shower before climbing out, grabbing a towel to wrap around my body before heading to the sink to brush my teeth, though I started studying myself a bit. I looked almost identical to Elena, but there was of course a few differences between us, for starters I had paler skin than she did as hers was creamy tan, next was our eyes, while Elena had light brown eyes, I had sapphire blue eyes and then finally our hair was different too, while Elena's was straight chocolate brown hair, I had golden blonde hair that was wavy and possibly a little curly that the ends.

I walked back into my room, grabbed navy skinny jeans, a yellow vest top and a black of the shoulder jumper, before changing into them and then blow drying my hair while brushing it, letting my hair curl up a little, I like the natural look. Putting on sandal like wedges and grabbing a handbag the has what I need for the day, I left my room and went into Elena's room.

"Hey Elena." I spoke, a soft smile on my face, it looked like she had just finished up writing but was still sitting at the window.

"Hey Evie." Elena said, smiling back before making room for me to sit next to her.

"How you feeling? Ready for school?" I asked, generally concerned for my little sister. She takes a deep breath.

"I'm fine." Elena replied, her voice sounding steady but I could tell that she was partially lying.

"Elena. I know you too well, there's no need to hide the truth from me." I lightly scolded though there was a smile on my face, Elena laughed slightly.

"Why'd we have to be twins, eh? If we weren't, I'd be able to hide anything." Elena spoke, and I lightly chuckled at her joke.

"Elena, you are my little sister, twin or not, I'd still know you enough to know when you're hurting or not. I here for you if you need me. Always." I spoke softly, pulling her to me so she was resting her head on my shoulder.

"Thanks Evie. Love you." Elena spoke, hugging me.

"Love you too, Ellie." I replied softly, kissing the top of her head before gently pulling away and standing up. "Come on then, wouldn't want to keep the world waiting for us."

"Got it." Elena said, a smile on her face and soon we were walking out the room and going downstairs, before heading to the kitchen. And the first thing we saw upon entering the room was Aunt Jenna fiddling around, obviously trying to figure out what to do.

"Toast. I can make toast." Aunt Jenna said, while looking into the fridge before turning to us.

"It's all about the coffee, Aunt Jenna." I said walking to the coffee machine to make some for all of us.

"Is there coffee?" A fourth voice spoke, joining in on our conversation and I turned passing one to Jeremy as he neared me and then handing one to Elena.

"Your first day of school and I'm totally unprepared. Lunch money?" Aunt Jenna asked, holding out a bit of money.

"I'm good." Bothe me and Elena said at the same time, making us smile at each other, and then before Aunt Jenna could pull it back, Jeremy took it without saying anything. That boy is gonna be in trouble if he uses that as drug money instead of for lunch.

"Anything else? A number two pencil? What am I missing?" Aunt Jenna spoke nervously or was it she felt panicked?

"Don't you have that a big presentation today?" Elena asked, looking at our Aunt.

"I'm meeting my thesis advisor at… Now. Crap!" Aunt Jenna cursed as she looked down at her watch, realising she was late.

"Then go. We'll be fine." I spoke up, reassuring her that we'd survive. She smiled at us before leaving quickly.

"You okay?" I heard Elena ask Jeremy who scowled slightly.

"Don't start. And don't even try Eve." Jeremy said coldly before walking out the room himself. I sighed.

"He'll come around Elena. Promise." I spoke, putting a hand gently on her shoulder, giving it a comforting squeeze.

"I know." Elena said finishing her coffee. I turned to watch the TV only to frown as two faces appeared on the TV, a couple had died last night and apparently an animal attack.

"You okay?" Elena asked, before turning to the TV herself.

"Seems the animal attacks seems to be growing more and more recently. It has me a little concerned." I answer her before tuning it off completely just as we hear a car horn go off just outside our house. "That'll be Bonnie. Let's go."


~In Bonnie's Car~

Me, Elena and Bonnie were sat quite comfortably in Bonnie's car as she drove us three to school, while she and Elena sat in the front, I was quite comfy sat in the back as I listened to Bonnie all while Elena was think to the point her mind was in another world.

"So Grams is telling me I'm psychic. Our ancestors were from Salem, which isn't all that, I know, crazy, but she's going on and on about it, and I'm like, put this woman in a home already! But then I started thinking, I predicted Obama and I predicted Heath Ledger, and I still think Florida will break off and turn into little resort islands." Bonnie said, a smile on her face.

"Wow, that sounds rather interesting to be honest. But seriously, Florida splitting up into islands? That's never gonna happen." I spoke, grinning at my friend.

"Yeah, I know. But never say never, you don't know what is around the next corner…. Elena! Back in the car." Bonnie spoke, before breaking my sister out of her trance.

"I did it again, didn't I? I – I'm sorry, Bonnie. You were telling us that…" Elena spoke embarrassedly as she turned back to us.

"That's I'm psychic now." Bonnie spoke, smiling at Elena as if the reassure her and that she doesn't blame her.

"Okay then, why not predict something then. About us." I said, jumping in.

"I see…." Bonnie started but before she could continue, a bird hit the car making us swerve off the road ever so slightly, thankfully we didn't hit anything and that we had been going at a slow and calm pace.

"What was that?! Oh my god! Elena, Evie, are you guys okay?" Bonnie asked frantically as she looked at us in concern and I took a deep needed breath but letting it out.

"I'm fine, Bon. It's okay." I responded giving her a smile before turning to Elena.

"I'm okay. I'm fine." She said, and I could tell she was a little freaked out but was trying her best to be strong.

"It was like a bird or something. It came out of nowhere." Bonnie said, still trying to calm us.

"Really, I can't, we can't be freaked out by cars for the rest of our lives." Elena spoke, looking at our best friend.

"Yeah Bon-Bon. It's fine, it not like we can control what the animals are gonna do." I said, grinning at her and soon Bonnie was smiling at us both.

"I predict this year is going to be kick ass. And I predict all the sad and dark times are over and you both are going to be beyond happy." Bonnie said, all our smiles growing at that and soon we were continuing our journey to school. It didn't take long for us to arrive at the dreaded place and park and soon we were walking to the building.

"Major lack of male real estate. Look at the shower curtain on Kelly bitch. She looks hot.. Can I still say 'Tranny mess'?" Bonnie says as the girl she was talking about walked past us. I was thankful she didn't hear, I couldn't be bothered for too much bullshit today. Or at least for a while.

"No, that's over." Elena said just as we arrived at our lockers.

"That is WAY over." I said before looking over my shoulder, saw Matt who was looking at us with a longing look if not slightly awkward.

"Ahh, find a man, coin a phrase. It's a busy year." Bonnie said but then the two of them saw who I was looking at.

"He hates me." Elena spoke sounding sad and guilty.

"No don't start, and no he doesn't. He should understand that you were having a hard time." I said, turning back to them so I could comfort my sister.

"Yes he does, Evie." Elena shot back angrily but then realized what she did. "Ah, sorry Eve, didn't mean to."

"Evie is right, that's not hate. That's 'you dumped me, but I'm too cool to show it, but secretly I'm listening to Air Supply's greatest hits." Bonnie said, looking at Elena before turning to me, a look that said it was my turn to get the attention. "And talking about boy drama, what about your own?"

"What are you talking about? I don't have a boyfriend." I spoke, trying to avoid the topic.

"Don't avoid it Evie. I'm talking about Tyler here. You two were really good together and then you both suddenly broke up and on the same night as Elena and Matt." Bonnie spoke.

"I caught him kissing Vicki and just dumped him then and there. Granted he was drunk at the time but with Vicki? Come on, she's the easiest girl to sleep in any guy's bed and I wasn't about to let myself stay with him while he's sleeping with a whore!" I spoke angrily, opening my own locker and grabbing what I needed for our first and second lesson, then slamming it shut.

"Sorry, my bad. I brought up something stupid. Forget I said it." Bonnie spoke apologetic and I smiled at her as Elena rubbed my back soothingly.

"It's okay Bon-Bon, I'm not mad at you or blame you. It's fine. I need to move on and since I'm fresh on the market, I need to go looking for a new man." I spoke enthusiastically.

"That's the spirit. Oh and warning, there's an eccentric blonde heading our way." Bonnie spoke and I knew she meant Caroline and not me.

"Elena, Eve. Oh, my god. How are you guys? Oh, it's so good to see you both." Caroline said hugging both me and Elena, before she turned to Bonnie. "How are they? Are they good?"

"Caroline, we're right here." I said, waving slightly giving an amused smile.

"And we're fine. Thank you." Elena continued and finished our statement.

"Really?" Caroline asked as if she wasn't 100% sure, I shook my head slightly but answered her anyway

"Yes. Much better." I replied, making sure to sound happy, only to be pulled into yet another hug from her.

"Oh, you poor things." Caroline stated before pulling away from me and then hugging Elena again.

"Ok, Caroline." Elena spoke, a big smile on her face.

"Oh! Ok, see you guys later?" Caroline asked us after backing up a little bit, looking at least a little hopeful.

"Alright Care-Bear." I answered, making the other blonde beam at me.

"Ok! Bye." Bonnie spoke, smiling at Caroline, and with that Caroline walked off with a bit of a skip to her pace.

"Ok then, way to start the day!" I spoke in amusement, making the other two giggle slightly.

"No comment from me." Elena said wrapping an arm around my shoulder as we headed towards our first lesson.

"I'm not going to say anything." Bonnie replied as if in agreement with Elena. I huff.

"Take Elena's side why don't you!" I spoke in mock-anger, my cheeks puffing out into a pout, making Elena and Bonnie giggle again. I soon smiled and laughed with them.


No one's P.O.V. ~With Jeremy and Vicki~

"Don't take more than two in a six-hour window." Jeremy instructed as he passed a couple of pills to Vicki who grabbed them quickly and then threw them into her mouth before swallowing.

"Hey Vicki. I knew I'd find you here with the crackheads." Tyler said walking over to Vicki and wrapping an arm around her waist.

" Hey." Vicki replied with a flirtatious smile, giving him a quick kiss of the cheek.

"Hey Pete Wentz called. He wants his nail polish back." Tyler said, turning to Jeremy, wanting to tease him.

"Pete Wentz, huh? How old school T.R.L. of you. Carson Daly fan?" Jeremy mocked back, clearly picking a fight and to which Tyler nearly went to punch him, that if Vicki hadn't stopped him.

"Oh, Ty, be nice. Be nice. That's Elena's and Evelyn's little brother." Vicki spoke, not noticing the guilty look Tyler showed on his face when Evelyn's name was mentioned but Tyler hid it quickly before no one could say anything.

"I know who he is. I'll still kick his ass." Tyler spoke before pulling Vicki into a heated make-out session, while Jeremy soon looked disgusted before he walked away.


Evelyn's P.O.V.

We were just passing the main office before Bonnie stopped us, and I turned to see what she noticed and soon I was wanting to drool. There was a guy there, though all we saw was his back, but he looked new and he looked hot.

"Hold up. Who's this?" Bonnie spoke questioningly as she studied the new guy, and as of right now, all we saw is that he had sandy light brown hair that was styled in a way that reminded me of, dare I say it, 'Edward Cullen' and he was tall in height wearing jeans, a hoodie and a brown leather jacket.

"All I see is a back." Elena said, as if stating the obvious.

"It's a hot back." Bonnie commented as if correcting my sister.

"No correction, it's a gorgeous sexy hot back." I spoke, grinning ear to ear, making them laugh yet again. Man I'm on a role with this today. I took a few steps closer to the new guy, wanting to find out his name and made sure I was in hearing distance but still nowhere near them.

"What are you doing?!"Bonnie and Elena whispered/yelled, but all I did was put a finger to my lips as if telling them to be quiet.

"Your records are incomplete. You're missing immunization records, and we do insist on transcripts." The secretary said, making me confused, how was this guy gonna attend high school, without the legal documents? I then saw the guy take his sunglasses off before he spoke.

"Please look again. I'm sure everything you need is there." The guy said, his voice a little low and deep but had a softness to it and was calm too. Made him hotter.

"Well you're right. So it is." The secretary said sounding robotic as she looked at the documents, then back up at the gut. Now what just happened? One minute there was no documents and now there were? That was creepy weird. I back up slowly so that I was standing by Elena and Bonnie again.

"I'm sensing Seattle, and he plays the guitar." Bonnie spoke, looking at the guy with full concentration and didn't seem to waver. I chuckled.

"You're really going to run this whole psychic thing into the ground, huh?" Elena asked, looking at our best friend in amusement.

"Pretty much." Bonnie replied, not letting her eyes wander away from the new guy.

"Jeremy, good batch, man." We heard just behind us and me and Elena turned to see Jeremy rush into the men's toilets.

"I'll be right back." Elena spoke, going to race after our brother.

"I'm coming too. Won't be long Bon." I said going after Jeremy with Elena and soon we enter the men's toilets.

"Whoa! Pants down, chick!" A guy said just before he walked out the room, I went banging on all the stalls to make sure we were alone, while Elena tackled Jeremy. I turned to see Elena looking at Jeremy's eyes carefully before she let go of him.

"Great. It's the first day of school and you're stoned." Elena spoke irritably as she glared at our little brother.

"No, I'm not." Jeremy denied, trying to back away from us.

"You know what? I ain't gonna believe you kid. Now where is it? Is it on you?" I spoke up, starting to search him over, all while he tried pushing me off.

"Stop, all right?! You need to chill yourselves, all right?" Jeremy spoke finally managing to get me off of him, though I was still in his face.

"Chill ourselves? What is that, stoner talk? Dude, you are so cool." I spoke sarcastically and cruelly too, glaring at him.

"Look, stop! I don't have anything on me. Are you crazy?" Jeremy said loudly, close to yelling, making me and Elena glare harder.

"You haven't seen crazy, Jeremy! We gave you a summer pass, but we are done watching you destroy yourself." Elena spoke, before Jeremy tried to walk away, but we managed to push him back. She continued. "No, no, no, you what? Go ahead. Keep it up. But just know that we are going to be there to ruin your buzz every time, you got it?"

Jeremy, I know who you are. We know who you are. And it's not this person. So don't be this person." I spoke softly, looking at him with sad eyes, a huge frown on my face.

"Yeah? And what about you Eve? You are practically using alcohol as a means to escape. But you know what? I don't need this." Jeremy spoke before finally leaving us standing there and out the toilets he went.

"What was that? What about you using alcohol?" Elena spoke angrily, turning on me now. Gee, thanks Jer! Make me look like the bad guy.

"As a means to escape the pain, I drank until I was too drunk to remember stuff, mostly in my bedroom. But don't worry, it has stopped, no more drinking." I said, trying to get myself out of the situation. And I would stop drinking, or at least for a short while.

"And that supposed to make me feel better?" Elena pressed.

"No it's not, but look. I'm sorry okay! I was in pain but then so were you, Jeremy and Jenna. We all had our ways of dealing with it, and Alcohol had been mine." I explained, looking a little guilty. "But come on. We are standing in the middle of the boy's room, let's go and we can further discuss this later?"

"Fine." Elena huffed, making me smirk. And soon we were leaving the toilets ourselves. Only to run into the new guy and wow, was he hot and those beautiful green eyes, you could definitely get lost in those.

"Uh, pardon me. Um… Is this the men's room?" The guy asked, making us feel embarrassed as we just realised that he caught us leaving a place where girls are not allowing in. Wow, now I feel awkward.

"Yes. Um, I was just, um…" Elena stuttered and if I was as embarrassed as she was, I'd be laughing. Though to be fair, he was looking at us intently, seeming to mostly be interested in looking at Elena but I did see him look at me too.

"It's a long story. Thank you though." I said, before pulling Elena down the hall to go meet up with Bonnie, all while Elena kept looking back at the new guy. What a way to make a first impression.

It wasn't long until we had caught up with Bonnie, who was waiting outside out classroom and soon we entered and found our seats quickly. We were halfway into our lesson, though to be honest, I was bored five minutes in, especially if it's Mr Tanner doing the teaching.

"Once our home state of Virginia joined confederacy in 1861, it created a tremendous amount of tension within the state. People in Virginia's northwest region had different ideals than those from the traditional deep south. Then Virginia divided in 1863 with the northwest region joining the union." Mr Tanner was saying when I noticed Elena and the new guy who I think who called Stefan, were constantly looking at one another, checking each other out. I then notice Bonnie taking out her phone, who sat in between me and Matt, and started texting Elena.

"'HAWT-E STARING YOU?' Really?" I whispered to her, making her silently chuckle but otherwise didn't reply. I grinned before getting back to my work. Thankfully, it wasn't too long until class ended and that we could leave.

"Elena, you lucky bitch." I spoke as soon as I reached my sister's side.

"What? Why?" Elena asked, confused but didn't seem offended.

"That new hot guy couldn't take his eyes off of you! Man, you definitely need to win him over." I said to her, giving her a look that I was stating the obvious. She laughed, finally understanding what I meant and soon we began walking to our next lesson and was thankful it was music, but I was also dreading it too. As I knew Tyler had it too.

"Hey you two! Glad you haven't skipped school yet." Caroline said, showing up randomly.

"Hey Care-Bear." I spoke, smiling. "You have music too?"

"Yeah, I managed to get mom to transfer me from sociology to music. Plus I get to be with you guys." Caroline spoke enthusiastically, and I mentally groaned knowing things have took an unexpected turn. I shared a look with Elena then we both turned to Caroline.

"That's great Caroline. Glad to have you with us." Elena replied as Caroline pulled us to the music room, only for me to stop dead on my feet before we reached the door. Tyler was there, stood just outside. Elena and Caroline gave me knowing looks, though Elena's held a concerned edge to hers.

"You okay?" Elena asked, worried.

"Yeah. Let's just get this out of the way." I answered, looking away from the bastard and turned to my sister. We continued to walk to the room and just before we entered, Tyler noticed us.

"Hey ladies. Hey Evie" Tyler greeted us, a smirk on his face, though it had turned into a nervous smile when he looked at me.

"Hey." Caroline and Elena spoke back, but I could tell Elena wanted to slap him or say something that probably wasn't gonna be very nice. I just glared.

"Hey, um, do you girls mind if I talk to Evie for second?" Tyler asked, looking at Elena and Caroline, while inwardly I wanted to tell them to say no.

"Sure." Caroline spoke before skipping into the classroom, while Elena stayed put.

"Why should I? After what you did to Eve?" Elena spat, glaring at the prick.

"Elena. It's fine Go inside, I won't be long." I spoke, trying to keep myself calm, while I placed a gentle hand on her shoulder. Tyler looked relieved, but he shouldn't, because I was going to give him an earful and a good slap.

"What? Are you sure?" Elena asked, turning to me, I saw her eyes turn from raging anger to being worried.

"Yeah, I'm sure. Go." I spoke, giving her a small smile and with that she entered the classroom, if not, reluctantly. I turned to my ex-boyfriend then.

"What is it that you could possibly want from me?!" I spat coldly, glaring at him.

"At the party, I made a mistake, a huge one. But I want to fix it, this, that has come between us. I want a second chance." Tyler spoke, sounding guilty and yet hopeful too. I looked at him surprise.

"What? Are you always this stupid or are you making a special effort today?" I spoke sarcastically, though I was glaring at him.

"What are you talking about? How am I stupid?" Tyler spoke, and I saw a twitch in his eyebrow, and I knew he was getting angry.

"Oh, I'm sorry but to me someone doesn't mean what he is saying. I know your still with Vicki, so just drop the act Tyler." I growled, glaring harder, before giving him a hard slap to his face.

"Look, I'm sorry, okay! It was a huge mistake and I will always regret it. Will you forgive me Evie?" He asked again, though saying it in different words. The nerve of this guy, he can clearly see that it wasn't working and he goes and tries again.

"Forgiving you means I will no longer dwell on what a giant asshole you are. It doesn't mean you are no longer a giant asshole. So no you don't have my forgiveness and I will say this once, don't call me Evie, you've lost that right." I spoke before walking into the room and sat next to Elena.

"Are you alright?" Elena spoke, noticing the tears that were starting to pool into my eyes.

"Yeah, I'll be fine. Just need a minute." I sniffed, rubbing the tears away. Soon our teacher arrived, and started assigning us our work, and turns out we have to pick out a lullaby song, sounded simply plus we had to sing the one we picked. God, this sounded something a child would do, but then this was the first day of school and we had to do something easy and simple.

"Now remember, when you sing, your voice needs to be clear and yet needs to follow the words so that it would rhyme. Miss Gilbert, would you like to go first?" Ms Potts, the music teacher spoke questionably.

"Which one?" I asked, gesture to both me and Elena, Ms Potts chuckled lightly.

"You dear." She answered softly, a soft smile on her face. I liked her, no matter what you did, she would go easy on you, unlike Mr Tanner.

"Alright." I spoke, standing up. I took a deep breath before starting the song.

Lavender's blue, dilly, dilly, lavender's green

When I am king, dilly, dilly, You shall be queen

Who told you so, dilly, dilly, who told you so?

'Twas my own heart, dilly, dilly, that told me so

Call up your men, dilly, dilly, set them to work

Some to the plough, dilly, dilly, some to the fork

Some to make hay, dilly, dilly, some to cut corn

While you and I, dilly, dilly, keep ourselves warm

Lavender's green, dilly, dilly, Lavender's blue

If you love me, dilly, dilly, I will love you

Let the birds sing, dilly, dilly, And the lambs play

We shall be safe, dilly, dilly, out of harm's way

I love to dance, dilly, dilly, I love to sing

When I am queen, dilly, dilly, You'll be my king

Who told me so, dilly, dilly, Who told me so?

I told myself, dilly, dilly, I told me so

"That was lovely dear. A+" She spoke, clapping lightly before letting me sit down.

"Cinderella?" Elena asked knowingly, making me shrug, though a wide smile was on my face.

"I just so happened to like that song, so why not use it?" I replied, grinning, and soon we were both chuckling. After that the rest of the day at school went by quickly and soon both me and Elena were heading to the cemetery where Elena loves to write in her journal while sitting at her parents grave.

"Tell me again why you love doing this?" I moaned slightly, as I sat down next to her.

"Because I like it, it soothes me for some reason." She answered, looking through her bag for her journal.

"Yeah like sitting in a cemetery when dead people lay to rest is soothing. I'm starting to wonder if I should worry on what goes through that head of yours." I teased, making her playfully slap my arm though she was grinning.

"I seem to be doing that a lot today." I commented, looking at her, watching her steadily.

"Doing what?" Elena asked as she finally pulled out the book and grabbing a pen.

"Making you smile and laugh. You stopped smiling shortly after the incident." I spoke nervously, not sure if I should of brought it up, though to be fair, I too was going through the same thing she was.

"Well you're my big sister. You know everything when it comes to me, you just know what to say or do. You've always been there for me, more you to me than the other way around." She replied, grabbing my hand and giving it a squeeze. "Granted, most of them are comments that can be sarcastic, but the end of the day, you know how to cheer me up. And I love you for that."

I smiled over at her. "Aww, you are gonna make me cry one of these days, you make me sound special! Now get writing you, before I drag you away from the dead people."

"Got it." She spoke, smiling again and I choose to draw something, anything and then a crow appeared on one of the tombstones.

"Oh hey there birdy. Stand right there and don't move!" I spoke to it.

"You do know you are talking to an animal, right?" Elena spoke amusedly, looking at the bird too. I looked back and since I told it not to move, it had actually listened, it wasn't moving. I started drawing it, which was finished quickly.

"That's really good. You're getting better." Elena commented, looking over my shoulder at the picture of the crow. Suddenly it started making noises, clearly wanting attention.

"Hey, it wants us to talk to it." I gave an amused smirk, looking up at the bird.

"Ok. Hi, bird. That's not creepy or anything." Elena spoke, probably feeling weirded out. She stood up then and walked over to it, and started to wave her hand in a 'shooing' motion.

"Shoo! That's what I thought." Elena said, just as the bird flew off, but then I jumped I heard a cawing noise just behind me, making me shoot to my feet and turning, and I saw it, the same crow on the tombstone that I had been sat against.

"Ok then. Elena, we should go." I spoke steadily, grabbing her hand cautiously, watching fog starting to surround us, I was starting to feel creeped out.

"Yeah, we should." She replied quietly, letting go of my hand and grabbed our stuff, passing me my bag.

"Come on." I said, grabbing her hand again, before pulling her towards the woods, where hopefully we'd be safe. I turned, and for a second, I thought I saw a figure of a man standing there watching us, a men wearing dark clothing but then he disappeared so I turned back and continued running. Elena was slightly in front of me, and then we reached a slightly steep hill and close to the bottom, Elena tripped.

"Ahh!" Elena yelled out in pain and shock.

"Elena! Are you okay?!" I asked alarmed yet worried as I ran to her side, and helped her stand up.

"Yeah, I'm okay." She spoke, and I sighed out in relief.

"Don't scare me like that." I lightly scolded, hugging her.

"Sorry." She muttered, hugging me back. I pulled away and we went to walk towards where the exit would be but stopped seeing Stefan standing just a few feet away from us.

"You two okay?" He asked, sounding genuinely concerned.

"Were you following us?" Elena asked suspiciously, studying him carefully. Couldn't blame the girl, he did just suddenly appear out of nowhere.

"No, I, uh, I just – I saw you fall." Stefan explained, and a look of understanding washed across my sister's face.

"Uh-huh, and you just happened to be hanging out in a cemetery." I spoke, still feeling suspicious myself, and then I felt Elena jab me with her elbow, making me grunt in pain. I looked at her with narrow eyes. "Ow!"

She rolled her eyes. She replied shortly after, or whispered it more like. "Then don't be rude."

"I'm visiting. I have family here." Stefan replied, but he didn't seem bothered about what we were doing or what I had just said. In fact he looked amused.

"Oh. Wow. Tactless. I'm sorry, that was rude of me. It's the fog, it's making me feel foggy. And then back there, there was this bird, and it was all Hitchcock for a second. That is the bird movie, right, the Hitchcock?" I spoke, throwing out words, feeling embarrassed.

"Err, sorry about my sister, she doesn't do well when she's in the spotlight in an awkward situation. I'm Elena and this is my older twin sister Evelyn." Elena said, introducing us.

"I'm Stefan." He replied, yep, I had gotten the name right earlier.

"I know. We have history together." Elena spoke, and I think that would have been obvious, since the two couldn't stop eye-fucking each other throughout the lesson.

"And English and French." Stefan said, and once again, obvious too as there were practically looking at each in those lessons too. Man, I started feeling jealous.

"Right." Elena replied, a smile on her face, a very relaxed one too. Huh. She so felt attracted to him and since she is my sister and under girly code or something like that, I will let her have him and I would help her, if she needed it.

"Oh." Stefan muttered, reaching over to Elena only the pull a leaf out of her hair. Wow, I did not notice that but I felt like I should back away.

"Thanks." Elena spoke, once she understood what he just did. I then took notice that he was wearing a ring on his right ring finger.

"Nice ring. Lapis Lazuli, right?" I commented, feeling more suspicious but it may have been a coincidence to what I was thinking.

"Oh. Um, it's a family ring and yeah you're right. How'd you know?" He asked, and I swear he spoke cautiously.

"Oh, ur, I love jewellery and am quite good at recognizing a lot of stones. Lapis Lazuli just so happens to be one of my favourites." I answered, giving him a reassuring smile, to which he smiled back.

"Well, I'm kind of stuck with it. It's weird, huh?" He commented, and then I felt suspicious of him again.

"No, no. It's just, I mean, there are rings and then there's that." Elena said, joining the conversation and there goes my spot at talking to the new guy. Then to make it stronger, he started looking strange, like he was looking at Elena with a cautious yet worried look.

"Did you hurt yourself?" Stefan asked, sounding unsure if he wanted the answer.

"Hmm?" Elena muttered, looking confused.

"Did you hurt yourself?" Stefan repeated the question, and it was then did Elena turn to put her foot on a nearby rock to check her leg and it was then that we saw a cut on her ankle, blood pouring out of it. I turned to see Stefan face away from her and I swear I saw his eyes turn red, and black veins appear under them. Oh god, was he human?! Or something else?

"You should go. Take care of that." Stefan said, still facing away from Elena, I would have kept my eyes on him but then I heard Elena groan slightly and I turned to look at her in worry.

"You alright?" I asked about to go help her.

"I'm fine. So St-" Elena said, but then when she was gonna talk to Stefan, he had vanished, making us both confused. I narrowed my eyes, that guy wasn't normal and certainly wasn't human.

"Come on Elena, let's get home." I spoke, putting my hand on her lower back to lead her the way we needed to go.


~Time Skip at the Gilbert House~

"You okay now Elena?" I said, looking at my sister who was sat on the counter in the bathroom as I had helped her clean up the injury and put a large plaster over it.

"Yeah, I'm okay." She replied, a smile on her face. "You going to the Grill later with me? I'm going to meet up with Bonnie and Caroline."

"Yeah, yeah. I will be. But there's something I need to do first, so go get yourself ready." I said, smiling at her, trying to hide what's bothering me.

"Okay." Elena spoke before jumping off the counter and heading into her room. I quietly left the bathroom and headed to our old parent's bedroom. Oh how I did NOT want to do this, but there was something I needed to confirm, so I entered, making sure no-one noticed me. I closed the door and turned the light on. And then sighed.

"We need to clean up this room at some point." I muttered looking around, the bed looked messy and needed to be made, dad's old desk still had his paperwork from the hospital on it. I sighed before walking up to it and started searching the desk from top to bottom but nothing but his work related stuff.

"Come on, there has got to be something." I sighed out, and if one was wondering on what I was doing, I will say this, Dad and Uncle John may have filled me about vampires and witches, but I hadn't believed them, thought they were joking but today, with Bonnie saying she's psychic and then with what I saw with Stefan, it made me re-think it.

Maybe the closet?" I asked myself walking over to the small closet they had in the wall, and when I opened it, it was littered with clothes. I then moved the clothes aside, searching the closet from top to bottom, and this time, I found a hollow back to the closet, and I took it away only to see weapons, making me gasp.

There were crossbows, wooden stakes, grenades, and then there was also a plant, just a single one, it was purple in colour. All these items were on shelves, the bottom shelf though had a journal on it, and I picked that up, but before pulling it away my hand brushed against something metallic and when I pick it up, I noticed it was a pistol. I gasped and almost dropped it, but stopped myself in case it fired from the impact of hitting the floor, plus I didn't want the rest of the family running to find all this. I studied the gun, recognizing it was a desert eagle pistol gun and when I opened it, it had wooden bullets inside of it.

"Ok, this closet definitely proves vampires are real." I muttered, before hiding the gun under my clothes, grabbing the plant and journal, then I closed the closet, hiding its true contents before leaving the room entirely.

"You okay?" I heard a voice ask and I turned to see Jenna, who just walked out of her room.

"Yeah, I'm fine." I lied, forcing myself to sound natural and calm.

"You sure? And where'd that plant come from?" Jenna asked, looking suspicious.

"Err, I bought it today actually, on my way home from school. It was in the window of the flower shop and I seemed to like it, so I went and got it." I lied again, god I hated this.

"Okay then. Well if you need to talk, you can come to me." Jenna spoke before going downstairs. I sighed out in relief before rushing to my room before someone stopped me again. I read the journal for a little bit and I soon learned a lot about vampires, how they need blood to survive, how they can compel us humans and how vervain, wood and the sun could kill them, though vervain was mainly used to weaken them. Oh god, how was I supposed to face Stefan now that I knew his secret, would he kill me? Torture me? Compel me to forget? Then again, I looked over to the plant and I guessed that it was vervain.

"This little plant is harmful to vampires? I better find a way to put some on me." I muttered, before grabbing the necklace I always were, it was a silver locket that my parents gave me for my 16th birthday and quickly put some vervain inside of it. I then hid the supernatural stuff so no-one in this house hold could find it and then started getting ready to head out to the Grill.


No one's P.O.V. ~At the Mystic Grill~

"Hey." Jeremy greeted, walking up to Vicki as she put drinks onto the tray she was carrying. She was a waitress at the Grill and was currently working.

"Working." Was the only thing she said, sounding annoyed before walking away to continue with her job. Though the table she went to was occupied by Matt and Tyler.

"Thanks, Vick." Matt said, smiling at his sister as she passed him his drink. After that, Vicki turned to Tyler, a flirtatious smile on her face.

"Do you need another refill?" She said just as flirtatious as her smile, the question having a double meaning to it, even though she meant to get him another drink.

"I'd love one." He answered, smirking at her, being flirtatious back, before watching her walk back to the bar.

"Please tell me you're not hooking up with my sister?" Matt asked, pulling Tyler's attention back to him.

"I'm not hooking up with your sister." He lied quickly, looking a little confident. "And besides, I'm still getting over Evelyn."

"You're such a dick." Matt replied irritably, seeing through his lie and of course, Evelyn was like a sister to him and he hated that Tyler hurt her. He only tried to put up with him was because they were best friends and that they were in the same boat, as in because he and Elena broke up the same night as Tyler and Evelyn.

"Hey, what's your deal? I mean, summer you act one way and then school starts and you can't be bothered." Jeremy says, approaching Vicki once again.

"Look, Jeremy, I really appreciate all the pharmaceuticals, but you can't keep following me around like a lost puppy." Vicki spoke, turning to look at him.

"When's the last time you had sex with a puppy?" Jeremy questioned, partially joking partially serious.

"Hey, keep it down. I don't want to tell the whole world I deflowered Elena's and Evelyn's kid brother." Vicki spoke harshly, starting to look annoyed.

"Yeah, and deflowered and deflowered. " Jeremy commented, still trying to get through to her.

"We hooked up a few times in a drug haze. It's over. You gotta back off between me and Tyler." She said, trying to get him to back off and let go.

"Oh, come on, the guy's a total douche. He only wants you for your ass. Plus he's using you to make Evie jealous or as a distraction from their break up." Jeremy reasoned, not wanting Vicki to get hurt by being with Tyler, plus he started hating the guy after he hurt Eve, he loved his sister.

"Yeah? What do you want me for?" Vicki spoke before shoving past him to do her job, obviously insinuating that he wanted the same thing from her, minus the whole Evelyn situation.

"His name is Stefan Salvatore. He lives with his uncle up at the old Salvatore boarding house. He hasn't lived here since he was a kid. Military family, so they moved around a lot. He's a Gemini, and his favourite colour is blue." Caroline said as she and Bonnie entered the Grill, only to stop a few feet in.

" You got all of that in one day?" Bonnie asks, amazed by her friend, but then she guessed she would since she was the gossip queen in Mystic Falls.

"Oh please, I got all that between third and fourth period. We're planning a June wedding." Caroline said, sounding optimistic, and once again, Bonnie couldn't help that she wasn't surprised and then watched as Caroline walked up to Tyler who seemed to be setting up the pool table for a game. Bonnie went to go sit by Matt.


~Back to the Gilbert house~

"Me and Eve are going to meet Bonnie at the Grill." Elena said, as she talked with Jenna, who looked rather relaxed.

"Ok, have fun. Wait, I got this. Don't stay out late, it's a school night." Jenna spoke, before turning to walk further into the living room.

" Well done, Aunt Jenna. EVELYN! TIME TO GO!" Elena started, before shouting up to Eve in hopes she'd hear her.

"OKAY!" Evelyn yelled back, making Elena shake her head, Evelyn sure did like taking her time.

"I'M GONNA GO WAIT IN THE CAR FOR YOU!" Elena yelled again, notifying her sister before opening the front door. Only to see Stefan standing there.

"Oh." Elena spoke, surprised since she wasn't expecting him to be there.

"Sorry, I was about to knock. I wanted to apologize for my disappearing act earlier. I know it was… Strange. Plus, I also want to apologize to your sister." Stefan said, give Elena a soft smile.

"No worries, plus I don't think Evie would mind either. And, I get it, blood makes you squeamish." Elena spoke, smiling slightly.

"Um, something like that. How's your leg?" Stefan asked, concerned for the girl.

"Oh, it's fine. Just a scratch, barely. And besides, Evelyn took care of it. How did you know where we lived?" Elena asked, curious yet confused at the same time.

"It's a small town. I asked the first person I saw. Um, I thought you might want this back." Stefan said, before grabbing her journal before giving it back to her.

"Oh, I must have dropped it, I – Thank you." Elena said gratefully, she had been angry at herself for dropping it earlier.

"Don't worry, I didn't… Read it." Stefan reassured her, grinning at her.

"No? Why not? Most people would have." Elena said, looking curious, as she looked up at him.

"Well, I wouldn't want anyone to read mine." Stefan said knowingly.

"You keep a journal?" Elena asked surprised, to her, he was the last person she'd expect to have a journal of his own.

"Yeah, if I don't write it down, I forget it. Memories are too important." Stefan stated, explaining why he too has one.

"Yeah. I'm just gonna, um, you don't have to stay out there." Elena spoke, walking away from the doorway and out of his view, and was going to put her journal in a safe place.

"I'm fine." Stefan spoke awkwardly into the empty space, looking around at the doorway, after all, him being a vampire, had to be invited inside.

"Oh, hey Stefan." He then heard, and I looked to see Evelyn walking downstairs wearing a purple dress and black shoes, and her blonde was still as curly as ever. She smiled at him.

"Hey Evelyn." He replied, smiling at her, but then grew concerned that she looked nervous being around him. "Is something the matter?"

"There's something that we need to talk about but not now and certainly NOT here." She said, avoiding his eyes, but was still speaking to him.

"Aright. I can talk when you're ready. Oh, and I'm sorry about earlier." Stefan spoke apologetic, still smiling. Evelyn turned to look at him then, surprised.

"Why are you apologizing for? There's nothing to be sorry about." She said, smiling.

"About my disappearing act earlier." Stefan said, feeling Déjà vu since he just said that with Elena.

"Oh, that. It's no bother, really. It's fine." She said, forgiving him instantaneously. It was then did Elena then make her re-appearance.

"Sorry, were you two going somewhere?" Stefan asked, feeling awkward once again.

"Yeah, meeting with a friend. Do you want to come?" Elena asked, looking hopeful.

"Come on, Steff! Join us!" Evelyn said enthusiastically, making him and Elena laugh just before he agreed and soon the three got into Elena's car and headed to the Grill.


~At the Mystic Grill~

"How's Elena doing?" Matt asked, looking at Bonnie, if not looking forlorn, though he looked hopeful too.

"Her mom and dad died. She also almost lost her twin sister. How do you think? She's putting on a good face, but it's only been four months." Bonnie spoke, answering his question.

"Has she said anything about me?" Matt asked, sounding hopeful again.

"Oh, no. So not getting in the middle. You pick up the phone and call her." Bonnie said, leaving no room to argue.

"I feel weird calling her. She broke up with me." Matt said, looking a little more depressed, making Bonnie look a tad bit guilty, but she stayed straight face and answered him.

"Give it more time, Matt." Bonnie said, before she looked over his shoulder, her eyebrows knitting together, which in turn, Matt look in the same direction. They both saw Elena, Evelyn and Stefan enter at the same time, looking around for a place to sit. Matt turned back to Bonnie.

"More time, huh?" Matt questioned downheartedly at Bonnie, making her feel bad, and she would have apologized had Matt not stood up to go greet the three.

"Hey, I'm Matt, nice to meet you." Matt introduced himself as both Elena and Evelyn shared looks/

"Hi, Stefan." Stefan said, returning the favour as the two guys shook hands.

"Hey." Elena spoke, giving a small smile to Matt.

"Hey." Matt spoke, just feeling awkward.

"Mattie! Hey!" Evelyn said, if not, more enthusiastically, grinning ear to ear.

"Hey Evie, how are ya?" Matt asked as the two shared a hug.

"I'm good. And sorry about Elena." Evelyn said, though the last part came out quietly.

"It's fine Evie. I just hope that things will fix itself." Matt said before walking off, leaving Eve to watch him sadly before she spotted Bonnie and Caroline before pulling her two companions over to them.


Evelyn's P.O.V. ~Later in the evening.~

"So, you were born in Mystic Falls?" Caroline asked, looking at Stefan as if he was a piece of meat. I chuckled lightly.

"Mm-Hmm. And moved when I was still young." Stefan replied. Oh I doubt that, he's a vampire, and since he doesn't age, he'd have to move around before anyone noticed that small detail.

"Parents?" Bonnie questioned. Probably dead and don't get me wrong here, I don't mean to sound cruel or horrible, just stating what is probably true.

"My parents have passed away." Stefan spoke, turning to Bonnie.

"I'm sorry to hear that. Any siblings?" I asked, genuinely curious, and I watched as he turned to me.

"None that I talk to. I live with my uncle." He answered me, and this piece of news made me concerned. He said no sibling that he talked to, not that he didn't have any. So he's probably got a brother or a sister. And what about his uncle? Was he a vampire too?

"So, Stefan, if you're new, then you don't about the party tomorrow." Caroline said, trying to gain Stefan's attention back to her, probably feeling jealous that we were getting more attention from him than she was. But of course her plan failed as Bonnie was the one to speak next.

"It's a back to school thing at the falls." Bonnie explained to him, taking a sip of her drink. Stefan then turned to Elena.

"Are you going?" Stefan asked, sounding hopeful that she would at the very least be there.

"Of course she is." Bonnie answered before Elena could even open her mouth.

"Besides, if she said no, I'd drag her there anyways. Can't party without my twin being there." Evelyn said, putting her hand in Elena's and giving it a squeeze. It was later in the evening when things start to cool off, Bonnie and Caroline went home, and Elena went to the bathroom, I had told her that I'd wait outside the Grill for her. She had been hesitant but I quickly reminded Stefan was still here, and so me and Stefan were by Elena's car.

"Stefan. Could we talk now while no-one is around?" I asked, looking up at him nervously.

"Yeah sure. What's on your mind?" He asked, sounding worried, but then again he also looked worried, so I guess that's what he was feeling.

"I don't want this to change things between us, I can see us being really good friends. But I want to ask you something, clear things up a bit." I said, and then he looked confused, and was about to ask, but I held my hand up to stop him. "I know Stefan."

"What? What do you know, Evelyn?" Stefan asked, looking confused, not sure if it was genuine or if he was acting.

"I know about you, what you are. You're a vampire Stefan." I stated and then instantly worried. Should I have said that? Was he going to do something like Kill me now? He looked at me, frozen in shock

"How…?" He asked, shocked, surprised and a little… Fearful?

"My dad and uncle knew about vampires and told me a year or so ago, at the time I didn't believe it but then I met you, and from what they told me and what I've seen today. I connected the dots. You compelled the secretary at school, your ring, your eyes turning red, which by the way, I did notice, and then of course that disappearing act too." I explained to him, looking at him warily.

"I see. Are you scared?" Stefan asked, sounding very serious.

"I… Don't know. I need to know one thing before I can answer that question." I said calmly, looking up at him. I spoke again. "Those animal attacks, the ones were people turn up dead. Were they you?"

"No, they aren't. Though I don't know who or what is doing it. I'm suspicious though but I can't say. But you must know this, I would never hurt you or your sister, I feed from animal blood and not human blood. Okay?" He spoke, putting his hands on my upper arms, in a way that would comfort me. I smiled at him.

"Then I'm gonna say this then. I am not scared of you and I trust you completely, Stefan." I said, smiling and I genuinely meant it too. "And no worries, I will keep your secret safe, I won't tell anyone. Especially Elena."

Stefan looked relieved, and gave me a smile. "Thank you. I just, I wasn't planning on you finding out and I certainly don't want Elena finding out either. The last thing I would want to do is hurt her."

"That's good. But just so you know, I do have questions about it but that can be for another time. Oh and one last thing, if you do go after Elena and hurt her, I will somehow find a way to hurt you ten times more back. Got it?" I threatened, looking serious.

He chuckled but nodded. "I understand. You're a good sister. Elena is very lucky to have you at her side."

"Hey! Sorry for the wait. Shall we go?" Elena spoke, finally appearing at our sides. I wrapped an arm around her, while Stefan looked at us with a smile.

"Yeah. Stefan, do you need a ride home?" I asked him, though I bet he could run home fast than we could drive him. I mentally laughed.

"Err, no thank you, I've troubled you both enough as it is. I'll see you at school tomorrow. Good night." Stefan said, giving a smile before walking off. And with that me and Elena got into her car and headed home.


No one's P.O.V. ~At Salvatore Boarding House~

"You promised." Zach said angrily as he stormed into Stefan's room, glaring at the vampire, as he waved a newspaper in his face, one with a dead couple on the headlines.

"This was an animal attack." Stefan said, he would have said to Zach that it may have been another vampire, but Zach was stressed enough and plus he didn't want to make things worse.

"Don't give me that. I know the game. You tear them up enough, they always suspect an animal attack. You said you had it under control." Zach spoke, disbelieving in what Stefan was saying.

"And I do." Stefan answered simply, turning away from his great-nephew.

"Please, Uncle Stefan. Mystic Falls is a different place now. It's been quiet for years, but there are people who still remember. And you being here, it's just going to stir things up." Zach spoke, and what he said reminded Stefan of his conversation he had with Evelyn Gilbert, how she managed to figure him out, how she told him that two people had warned her.

"It's not my intention." Stefan replied, trying to sound reasonable as he turned to face Zach once more.

"Then what is? Why did you come back? After all this time, why now?" Zach asked, feeling very confused and possibly peeved.

"I don't have to explain myself." Stefan said, now trying to avoid THAT topic.

"I know that you can't change what you are. But you don't belong here anymore." Zach spoke, sounding a little harsh, but at the same time, trying to sound reasonable.

"Where do I belong?" Stefan asked, his eyes narrowing slightly at Zach.

"I can't tell you what to do. But coming back here was a mistake." Zach said coldly before throwing the newspaper on a chair before storming out of the room. Stefan sighed before walking to the bookcase, and looked at all the diaries he had kept dating from 1864 to the present time. He grabbed the oldest one and opened it revealing a black and white picture of Katherine. Katherine who had curly hair, who looked like the Elena mostly but of course, Evelyn had a striking a likeness to her too.


Evelyn's P.O.V. ~Next day in class~

"The battle of Willow Creek took place right at the end of the war in our very own Mystic Falls. How many casualties resulted in this battle? Ms Bennett?" Mr Tanner was saying before looking at Bonnie.

"Um…. A lot? I'm not sure. Like a whole lot." She spoke, sounding awkward and I looked at her, she didn't looked pleased. I then turn to the teacher, he didn't look pleased with her answer, of course, he'd be unhappy, when is he ever happy?

"Cute becomes dumb in an instant, Ms Bennett. Mr Donovan. Would you like to take this opportunity to overcome your embedded jock stereotype?" Mr Tanner said turning to Matt.

"It's ok, Mr Tanner, I'm cool with it." Matt spoke, sitting back making me snicker.

"Evelyn Gilbert? Would you like to answer?" Mr Tanner asked, his heated gaze now washing over me.

"Sorry, your honour, but I don't have the answer you seek. How about try another day?" I spoke sarcastically and fully amused, making several others laugh, I even saw Stefan smirk in amusement as he shook his head.

"Alright, Ms Gilbert, you're funny." Mr Tanner said, him sounding sarcastic too, before turning away, and I saw Bonnie giving me a look, and I returned a look that practically said 'What?', and the only thing I got in return was her shaking her head but I knew she was very amused was that large grin on her face.

"Hmm. Elena? Surely you can enlighten us about one of the town's most significantly historical event?" Mr Tanner spoke, turning on my sister. Oh, whoops, maybe I should have tried to answer it.

"I'm sorry, I – I don't know." Elena stuttered out, seeming to looked startled, I glared at our teacher.

"I was willing to be lenient last year for obvious reasons, Elena, Evelyn. But the personal excuses ended with summer break." Mr bastard of teacher said, making him a bigger dick than he already was. I went to yell but I got stopped by Bonnie, who put a hand on my arm and Stefan, who answered the question Mr Tanner had been asking.

"There were 346 casualties, unless you're counting local civilians." Stefan spoke quickly, gaining Mr Tanner's attention.

"That's correct. Mister…" Mr Tanner spoke, his voice trailing off, not knowing his name.

"Salvatore." Stefan stated, looking directly at Mr Tanner.

"Salvatore. Any relation to the original settlers here at Mystic Falls?" Mr Tanner asked, as he moved over to take a closer look at Stefan.

"Distant." Stefan replied, looking very serious, and it made me think, was he talking about himself? I mentally snickered.

"Well, very good. Except of course, there were no civilian casualties in this battle." Mr Tanner said, turning away and walking back to the blackboard.

"Actually, there were 27, sir. Confederate soldiers, they fired on the church, believing it to be housing weapons. They were wrong. It was a night of great loss. The founder's archives are, uh, stored in civil hall if you'd like to brush up on your facts, Mr Tanner." Stefan corrected, making Mr Tanner turn to him.

"Hmm." Was the only replied Stefan god from the teacher. I mouthed a 'Thank you' to him, making Stefan nod, a smile on his face. I turned to face the front and continued being bored throughout the lesson.


~Later at the party~

People look up to me. I have to set an example." Elena spoke, before I coughed. Elena quickly corrected herself. "Sorry people look up to US and we have to set an example."

"Just admit it, Elena." I said, giving my sister a smirk, before I noticed Stefan arriving to the party, he threw me a smile, noticing me looking towards him. I smiled back.

"Oh, ok, so he's a little pretty." Elena said, pulling my attention back to her.

"Uh huh. And earlier, you agreed that he was hot, and now you've demoted it to 'pretty'." I spoke, giving her i-know-you-too-well sort of look. I smirked when she rolled her eyes.

"He has that romance novel stare." Bonnie spoke, as if in agreement to what I said.

"Stefan looked deep into her eyes, piercing her very soul." I spoke, teasing my sister and getting a laugh of the two, I laughed also, but stopped slightly when I saw Caroline approach Stefan, she's probably not his type, in fact, he'll probably walk away.

"So where is he?" Bonnie asked, and I went to answer her, but Elena seemed to have beaten me to the punch.

"I don't know. You tell me, you're the psychic one." Elena spoke, grinning at Bonnie, I too smiled at her, deciding to play along.

"Right I forgot. Ok, so give me a sec. Grams says I have to concentrate." Bonnie said, and her Grams was probably right, especially if Bonnie does turn out to be a witch.

"Wait, you need a crystal ball." I said, before looking around before seeing what it was and picked it up. It was a beer bottle.

"Here we go." I said as I held the bottle out to Bonnie, and me and Elena waited patiently as our friend reached out for it. But as soon as Bonnie touched it, her face went blank, her smile dropping and then she pulled back.

"Ahh." She said out of shock, making me and Elena looking at her in concern.

"What?" Elena asked, frowning at the girl.

"Bon-Bon, are you okay?" I asked, feeling very concerned and worried. I'm gathering that it wasn't a good thing.

"That was weird. When I touched you, I saw a crow." Bonnie spoke, looking at me worriedly. My eyebrows knitted together, did she use magic? Had it activated?

"What?" Elena said, growing concerned as she wrapped an arm around me.

"A crow. There was fog, a man." She said, still sounding worried, but then snapped herself out of it. "I'm drunk. It's the drinking. There's nothing psychic about it. Yeah? Ok, I'm gonna get a refill."

"What was that?" I asked as we watched her leave in a hurry, and I felt worried about our friend. I also saw something else there in her eyes, something more to it.

"I don't know." Elena answered me, looking worried herself. We turned away to look in a different direction when we saw Stefan standing just a few feet away from us, making us jump. When did he get there?

"Hi." Stefan said, smiling at us, looking innocent.

"Hi." We both said at the same time, though mine was casual while Elena's was a soft one.

"I did it again, didn't I?" Stefan asked, making me look confused but then looked at Elena to see she understood, and then I felt like the third wheel.

"Yeah." Elena spoke, a happy edge to her voice. I looked between the two and I could tell they were starting to like each other.

"I'm sorry. You're upset about something." Stefan stated, his eyes not leaving Elena, looking a little worried but still held a smile on his face.

"Oh, uh, no, it's Bonnie. She's… You know what? Never mind. You're…. here." Elena said, her voice sounding softer.

"I'm here." Stefan replied, his smile seemed to go softer, and this was my queue to leave.

"And I'll be over there, with Bonnie." I said and left before they could say or do anything. But just as I'm about to go after Bonnie, I see Tyler dragging Vicki away towards the words, probably for privacy. I inwardly growled in anger but didn't act on it as I continued to go after Bonnie.


Elena's P.O.V.

"Evelyn!" I called to her, I felt a little guilty, I had completely forgotten that she was standing right next to me but at the same time, I was thankful for giving me and Stefan some space. I smiled.

"Your sister is really good. You're lucky to have her at your side." Stefan commented, watching Evelyn himself before turning back to me.

"Yeah, I am. Luckiest girl in the world to have a sister like that." I spoke, smiling at the thought of my sister before I turned back to look at Stefan.

"And you are lucky. She's seems like a good person." He said, looking at me intently.

"She's more than that, she's an amazing person. Very loyal, and caring and when comes to people loves, whether it's family or friends, she loves then unconditionally and is very protective. She's sarcastic and a bit of a jokester, she know how to make people laugh in hard situations but she also knows when to be serious, to be there when you need to talk or for hug." I explained, grinning, thinking about all the things she has done for me, for Jeremy , for Jenna and for all of our friends. "There's no one you can trust more than her. She's not capable of hate, anger yes, but never hatred. She's a very forgiving person."

"Then I've got to make sure she becomes a really good friend to me then." Stefan said, a grin on his face, making me laugh.

"Yeah, you do. And trust me when I say this. You won't regret it." I said, smiling up at him. "Now, on with the next topic. You know, you're kind of the talk of the town."

"Am I?" Stefan asked, genuinely curious.

"Mm-Hmm. Mysterious new guy, oh, yeah." I spoke before leading him to a more quieter place, but we continued talking.

"Well, you have the mysterious thing going, too. Twinged in sadness." He said, making me feel a little confused, I looked at him with curiosity.

"What makes you think that I'm sad?" I asked, confusion dripping from my voice.

"Well we did meet in a graveyard." Stefan stated, which in turn made me chuckle slightly.

"Right. Well no, technically we met in the men's room. You don't want to know, it's…. It's not exactly party chit-chat." I said, thinking about Jeremy and the drug issues.

"Well, I've never really been very good at, uh, chit-chat." Stefan commented.

"Last spring… My parent's car drove off of a bridge into the lake. And me and my sister was in the backseat, and we survived but…. They didn't. And not only that, when I woke up in hospital, I found out I was the first to wake while Evelyn was stuck in a coma, that last up to a month. We had almost lost her too, she had apparently died in the operation but they managed to bring her back. It scared us. I still feel like I'm going to lose her one day." I say, looking anywhere but at Stefan as I felt tears well up.

"Evelyn seems to be a strong person, she pulled through it right? She's here and she's okay." Stefan said, his voice soft and he was trying to comfort me. I nodded, smiling at him. "You won't be sad forever, Elena."


Evelyn's P.O.V.

"Bonnie!" I called out to my friend, who turned to me. She still looked stressed. "Are you alright?"

"I… I don't know Eve, I don't know what that was to be honest. I saw the crow, the fog, the man and I saw something else, but it wasn't clear." Bonnie said biting her lip.

"Saw something else? Why didn't you saw that earlier?" I asked, more worried than before. If this had anything to do with vampires, then I don't know what else it could be.

"I didn't say it if front of Elena, it make her already more scared than she was before. I saw something dark, cold, something that anyone would want to avoid. I worried something is going to happen, to you." Bonnie spoke, looking scared and it was making me feel scared.

"What?" I asked nervously, I had to force it out as I was feeling that scared, and to be honest, I didn't want to know.

"I honestly don't know to be honest. It didn't look like it was going to happen right now or anytime soon. But something tells me that sometime in the future, that something will happen." Bonnie said and then I felt like I needed to throw up. Was I going to die? Turn into a vampire? Would I ended up leaving those that I loved and cared about.

"lyn- EVELYN!" I heard Bonnie yell, and she looked startled.

"Bonnie?" I asked, feeling dazed.

"Are you okay? Your looking far more pale than before." Bonnie asked, looking very scared and very worried.

"I'm fine." I said, sitting down on a bench that happened to be empty. "I just really need a drink. Like a beer or something"

"Alright, I'll go get you one. Are you sure you're okay?" She asked again, I smiled up at her.

"Really, I'm fine. I've just got a couple of things on my mind, you know?" I said calmly, not letting her know how upset I was.

"Okay. I'll be right back with our drinks." She said before walking off. And after that, I was left to my thoughts and I told myself that I needed to make some time to go see her Grams. She'd know more as Bonnie 'gift' was still only awakening.


Elena's P.O.V.

"I like Bonnie, she seems like a good friend." Stefan commented, and then I felt Déjà vu, but then again, he said a similar thing about Evelyn.

"Best friend in the world." I said, smiling at him.

"And Matt, he can't seem to, uh, take his eyes off of us." Stefan said looking back at the guy from our place on the bridge, while Matt was still amongst everyone in the party.

"Matt's that friend since childhood that you start dating because you owe it to yourselves to see if you can be more." I said, feeling unsure and the guilt was building up a little.

"And?" Stefan asked.

"And then my parents died, and everything changes. Anyway, Matt and I, together we just, I don't know, it wasn't, um… It wasn't…" I said, but trailed off as I was trying to find the right word to say.

"Passionate." Stefan said, providing me with a possible answer.

"No, No, it wasn't passionate…." I said, agreeing with him. I then saw something, his eyes changing slightly. "Hey, um, are you okay? Um, your eye, it just, it's-"

"Oh, um… Yeah, no, it's, um, it's nothing. Um, are you thirsty? I'm gonna get us a drink." Stefan said, turning away at first but then walked away, feeling uncomfortable probably. He had looked startled and a little worried and I just watched him go feeling confused.


Evelyn's P.O.V.

I walked around the party for a little bit, taking sips of my beer every now and then. Me and Bonnie had talked for a while before she decided to go look for Caroline. I saw Stefan, and he looked very distressed, I went over to him.

"Hey, are you okay?" I spoke worriedly, looking at him with a serious look, or as serious I could be in my drunken state.

"Yeah, yeah I'm fine." Stefan spoke, avoiding my eyes a little. Lying.

"Steff, you don't need to lie to me. I know your biggest secret, so it wouldn't hurt to rely on me. Were friends, right?" I asked, my worry for him growing stronger. He chuckled.

"I was talking with you sister. I was too engrossed in our conversation, I completely forgot what I was. I felt thirsty near the end of it." He replied nervously, obviously worried about my reaction, and I raised my eyebrows.

"Really? And you didn't go after her?" I asked, making him shake his head, I smiled. "Then I'm not mad. You walked away, you didn't hurt her."

"I thought you'd be mad or something. I came close to eating your sister, and you ain't angry. Elena was right about you, you're very forgiving." Stefan said, chuckling. I smirked.

"Hey, it's just my charm." I joked, winking at him, before we both started laughing. "No, it's ok. I wouldn't be mad if you had hurt her by accident, but I'd only be mad if it was intentional."

"I'll keep that in mind. Thank you." Stefan said before he started walking off, I smiled before continuing to walk around, when I saw Elena walking around herself. I got to her the same time Matt did.

"Looking for someone?" Matt asked, looking at Elena, making the brunette turn to him, they clearly didn't see me or hadn't noticed that I was here.

"Hey." Elena said softly, giving a small smile.

"When you broke up with me, you said it was because you needed some time alone. You don't look so alone to me." Matt spoke, looking rather unhappy.

"Matt, you don't understand. It's-" Elena started to explain, but got interrupted by Matt.

"That's ok, Elena. You do what you have to do. I just want to let you know that… I still believe in us. And I'm not giving up on that." Matt said before turning and walking off. I felt angry but at the same time sorry for him.

"Matt…" Elena called after him, watching him go, a sad look on her face.

"Hey, are you alright?" I asked, wrapping an arm around her.

"Yeah. I just feel so bad for hurting him and I want to so badly apologize to him." She said, looking at me, and I saw all the sadness return.

"Don't you dare do this to me! You've just started becoming happy again, don't go turning back around and go to depressed land!" I spoke loudly, looking at her slightly angrily, slightly worriedly and slightly desperately.

"Sorry, it's just a little hard is all." Elena said hugging me.

"Why don't I go talk to him? And don't worry, I won't go ballistic on him." I said, grinning at her.

"I don't know, you never let me help you when it comes to boy trouble." She spoke unsurely.

"That's because I'm your older sister, and I've got to look after my younger siblings. It's not supposed to work the other way around." I said, and then I noticed Stefan heading our way. "And besides, I gives me the excuse to leave you and Stefan some space."

"Alright, fine." Elena said, a smile on her face.

"I'll be back soon." I said before walking off after Matt and luckily, I found him rather quickly.

"Matt!" I called making him turn.

"Oh, hey Eve." Matt said, a sad smile on his face. "What is it?"

"It's about Elena, and no, don't avoid it, you knew you'd have to face me eventually." I spoke, seeing that he wanted to walk away.

"And what do want me to say? She broke up with me, and I'm supposed to be okay with that?" Matt asked angrily, glaring at me slightly.

"No, I didn't say that. I just wanted to make sure you understood that it's been four months since it happened. Okay?" I spoke sternly, my eyes not leaving his.

"But, Evelyn…" He started to speak, but like he did to Elena, I didn't let him continue.

"No, you know what? She's had four months to think about it. Four months to be alone to decide what she wants. It was either go back to you or move on. I understand you're hurt Mattie and I know what she did was wrong, but try to see it from her perspective okay? She needs this, to be happy, we've only just started becoming happy again and the last thing she needs is you making it worse." I spoke angrily, turning the tables and now he was the one looking guilty.

"Eve…" Matt muttered sadly.

"I'm sorry, Matt, I really am, but please just try to either be more patient or move on yourself." I said before going back to Elena, just as she looked to see Jeremy walk drunkenly into the woods. I sighed before turning to Elena.

"I'll take care of it." I said to her, making her look guilty. I turned and ran after my little brother. "Jeremy!"

"Jeremy, where are you going?" I asked after I caught up to him, and soon I was walking a metre behind him though the dark woods.

"I don't want to hear it!" Jeremy spoke irritably, glaring back at me.

"Yeah, well too bad!" I spoke just as angry as he was, but that anger turned into concern as I watch Jeremy trip and fall to the ground.

"Jer, are you… Oh my god!" I gasped out, seeing Vicki laying there on the wet ground, blood pouring from her neck.

"Vicki? No! Oh, my god, it's Vicki!" Jeremy yelled scared, worriedly and rather desperate. "No!"

"Come on! We've got to get her out of here, we need to get her help!" I said, looking down at him, to which he nodded and picked her up bridal style before we hurried back. Was this another vampire attack? Unless it was an animal. No, that wound definitely looked like a vampire bite.

"SOMEBODY HELP!" I screamed as soon as we reached the party, making everyone turn and soon we were surrounded by people.

"Vicki? Vicki, what the hell?!" Matt yelled, as he ran to her side and I backed away, and Elena grabbed a hold of me.

"You okay?" Elena asked, looking worried and scared for me.

"I think I'm gonna be sick. Sorry, I'm just gonna back away." I spoke, I've never seen so much blood on someone before, but I suppose I may have to get use to this.

"Alright. Why don't you go wait somewhere it is more calmer? I shouldn't be long." Elena spoke, making me nod. I walked away, only to be stopped by Stefan.

"Are you alright? Are you hurt?" He asked, looking very concerned, more so than Elena did.

"I'm fine, just feel sick. That was no animal attack. That had to be another vampire Stefan. I saw it, the bite mark. It seems you're not the only vampire in town." I said, looking up at him. "What are we going to do?"

"You aren't going to do anything, while I will try to find whoever it is and stop them." He spoke sternly, and I reluctantly nodded. "Don't worry, you and your family will be safe. I promise you that."

"Alright. Thank you Stefan." I said before he turned away and soon disappeared within seconds. Before I went to go to wait for Elena a safe distance away from the mayhem.


No one's P.O.V. ~Salvatore Boarding House~

Stefan ran home, feeling distressed and quite angry. Zach looked up from where he sat at a desk. "What's going on?"

"Someone else was attacked tonight, Zach, and it wasn't me." Stefan spoke fearful before running up the stairs and into his room. At first things were quiet and then a cawing noise could be heard and Stefan watched a crow enter hit room before landing just above him. He turned around to see a man standing on his balcony, he had black hair and bright baby blue eyes and was smirking at him.

"Damon." Stefan stated not looking too happy to see his older brother.

"Hello brother." Damon spoke confidently, his smirk growing a little bigger as he entered Stefan's room.

"Crow's a bit much, don't you think?" Stefan asked, not taking his eyes off of Damon as his brother leant against the shelving to look at its' contents.

"Wait till you see what I can do with the fog." Damon said turning to look at Stefan, his smirk not leaving.

"When'd you get here?" Stefan asked, not amused by Damon's act.

"Well, I couldn't miss your first day at school. Your hair's different. I like it." Damon commented, before walking to another part of the room, still looking around.

"It's been 15 years, Damon." Stefan commented back, glaring.

"Thank god, I couldn't take another day of the nineties. That horrible grunge look? Did not suit you. Remember, Stefan, it's important to stay away from fads." Damon said, looking at Stefan.

"Why are you here?" Stefan asked, still glaring.

"I miss my little brother." Damon spoke teasingly, smirking still feeling amused by his little brother's attitude.

"You hate small towns. It's boring. There's nothing for you to do." Stefan reasoned, trying to persuade him to leave town and to leave him alone.

"I've managed to keep myself busy." Damon stated, amused.

"You know, you left that girl alive tonight. That's very clumsy of you." Stefan said, wondering why he did that. Normally Damon would kill them.

"Ah. That can be a problem… For you." Damon said, unaffected and uncaring yet was still smirking.

"Why are you here now?" Stefan asked, confused.

"I could ask you the same question. However, I'm fairly certain your answer can be summed up all into three little words… Elena and Evelyn." Damon spoke, smirking and now was silently laughing at Stefan's expression, a look of horror and fear.


~With Elena, Evelyn and Bonnie~

Elena and Evelyn were, watching Matt and Vicki going into the ambulance, getting ready to take Vicki to the hospital and both twins were a little worried, though it was mainly Elena. Bonnie saw them and walked over to them before speaking.

"Hey. We're gonna go mainline coffee, wait for news." Bonnie said, making the two look at her, before they nodded.

"We gotta take Jeremy home, not to mention Eve's feeling unwell." Elena spoke, looking at Evelyn before looking back at Bonnie. She nodded in understanding.

"Elena, Evelyn, there's no way I'm psychic. I know that. But whatever I saw, or I think I saw, I have this feeling…" Bonnie said, feeling very worried, and a little scared. Evelyn and Elena looked at each other, before Evelyn spoke.

"Bonnie, what is it?" Evelyn asked, worried.

"That it's just the beginning." Bonnie said, and while Elena was confused, Evelyn was upset and knew what she was talking about. Not liking that one bit.


~With Stefan and Damon~

"They took my breath away, Elena and Evelyn. Elena being a dead ringer for Katherine why Evelyn being a blue-eyed blonde haired version of the two, hotter might I add." Damon commented, smirking at the thought of Evelyn. She did catch his eye, thought she was WAY more beautiful than Katherine. "Is it working, Stefan? Being around them, being around her, being in their world? Does it make you feel alive?"

"Elena's not Katherine and neither is Evelyn." Stefan stated, sounding serious and annoyed.

"Well, let's hope not. We both know how that ended. Tell me something, when the last time you had something stronger than a squirrel?" Damon asked, curious yet was teasing.

"I know what you're doing, Damon. It's not gonna work." Stefan said turning away, but kept his guard up.

"Yeah? Come on. Don't you crave a little?" Damon asked, his voice still teasing.

"Stop it." Stefan said, turning back to face his brother, his voice low and warning.

"Let's do it. Together. I saw a couple of girls out there. Or just, let's just cut to the chase, let's go straight for Elena and Evelyn!" Damon spoke, trying to tempt him.

"Stop it!" Stefan demanded angrily, glaring really hard.

"Imagine what their blood tastes like!" Damon taunted, a smirk on his face. And that did it, Stefan face starts to transform, red eyes, black veins under them and fangs growing longer and stronger. Damon continues, knowing he just needs one extra little push. "I can."

"I said stop!" Stefan growled, before lunging at Damon, shooting them both out the window and onto the drive though, Damon did manage to leave Stefan's grip and was leaning on the wall a few feet away, watching as Stefan picked himself up.

"I was impressed. I give it a six. Missing style, but I was pleasantly surprised. Very good with the whole face-thing. It was good." Damon said, pulling face to mock what Stefan just did, before smirking once again.

"You know, it's all fun and games, Damon, huh? But wherever you go, people die." Stefan commented, slowly walk closer to his brother.

"That's a given." Damon said, unaffected.

"Not here. I won't allow it." Stefan said, remembering the promise he made with Evelyn earlier that evening.

"I take that as an invitation." Damon said, still unaffected by Stefan's words and was amused.

"Damon, please. After all these years, can't we just give it a rest?" Stefan begged, sighing slightly but his guard was still up.

"I promised you an eternity of misery, so I'm just keeping my word." Damon stated, looking serious for the first time since their reunion, but it was quickly replaced with an amused smirk.

"Just stay away from Elena and Evelyn." Stefan warned, trying to protect the twins.

"Where's your ring?" Damon asked, and it was just then did Stefan notice that Damon must've taken his ring. "Oh yeah, sun's coming up in a couple of hours, and, poof, ashes to ashes. Relax. It's right here.

Stefan see's the ring in Damon's hand, as he was handing it back over, but Stefan didn't trust Damon, knowing he was going to do something, but none the less, took his ring and put it back on. As soon as the ring was back safely on his finger though, Damon takes Stefan by his T-shirt and projects him against the brick wall, before Stefan landed hard on the floor, facing up.

"You should know better than to think you're stronger than me. You lost that fight when you stopped feeding on people. I wouldn't try it again." Damon said, looking down at Stefan with a cold glare, before turning to walk back to the house. "I think we woke Zach up. Hmm. Sorry Zach."


Evelyn's P.O.V.

"I think we need to go look for Jeremy. He probably won't come otherwise." I said, looking at Elena, who nodded.

"You're probably right. Let's go." She replied before we started looking for that brother of ours. Though it didn't take long as we saw him sitting on a wall, drinking beer, not to far from a group of cops.

"You okay? I called Jenna, she's on her way." Elena stated, announcing our presence.

"And you know those people in uniforms? Last time I checked, they're the police." I said, smirking at him slightly. Jeremy stayed quiet, but threw his beer bottle away.

"People are going to stop giving you breaks, Jer. They don't care anymore. They don't remember that our parents are dead, because they've got their own lives to deal with. The rest of the world has moved on. You should try, too." Elena said, frowning.

"I've seen you in the cemetery writing in your diary. Is that – Is that supposed to be you moving on?" Jeremy asked, his eyes narrowing at her, and I stepped between the two.

"Oh? I don't see her giving anyone any attitude, so she must have moved on. But then that means that you either haven't moved on, or you've just stopped caring." I spoke harshly and rather coldly too, glaring at my brother, who looked shocked before he glared back.

"Mom and Dad wouldn't have wanted this." Elena said softly, putting a hand on my shoulder to calm me down. And before he walked away, though not that far to be honest. We waited for 15 minutes until Jenna showed up and took us three home and I sighed as Jeremy raced up and disappeared up to his room.

"What's up with him?" Jenna asked, sounding worried, and I sighed before explaining it all to her. "Oh god, that must have really messed up his mind a bit. Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine. Just a little tired is all. Good night Aunt Jenna." I smiled before heading for my own room. Man was I tired but I felt like I was going to have nightmares tonight. I got dressed into my PJ's before I heard a knock on my door.

"Come in." I called, sitting on my bed, on for Elena to enter. "Oh, hey Elena. What wrong?"

"Hey. I, uh, just wanted to check up with you. How are you feeling?" Elena asked, coming to sit next to me.

"I'm feeling much better, sorry to have made you worry." I answered, smiling at her, leaning against the headboard of my bed.

"That's good. I need to confess something." She said, looking down and now I was worried again.

"What wrong? Elena, tell me." I lightly ordered, pulling her too me so she was resting against me, and she hugged me back, her head on my chest.

"Today, when I talked to Stefan and then the whole incident with Vicki. It reminded me of the car accident, but then waking up in the hospital feeling alone." She said, and my eyebrows knitted together in concern.

"What about then? What has got you scared?" I ask softly.

"That I almost lost you. And I still feel like I going to lose you too. I can easily move on from our parents death, I could probably move on from anyone's death, but if I lost you? I won't know what to do, and I don't want to be apart from you. Ever." She confessed, and then I understood. She was afraid of being alone, afraid she'd lose her other half. But then I feel the same way.

"Shh, it's okay Elena. I'm right here, alright? I ain't going anywhere, and not anytime soon. Okay? And I promise you this, that I won't die and leave you alone." I said, kissing the top of her head as my hands stroked her back soothingly.

"Thanks Evelyn. I love you." She said, snuggling closer, making me laugh.

"I love you too, little sis." I said, before I heard the doorbell ring. "And I have a hunch I know who that is."

"Who?" Elena asked, looking up at me in confusion.

"Stefan. I just saw him approaching the house." I said, smiling down at her, and it was true, I did see him, sending him a smile, to which he returned. "And let me guess, he ain't here to see me, Jenna or Jeremy. Go greet him before Jenna goes and does it. Otherwise, you'd have some competition."

"Oh shut up." Elena spoke playfully slapping my arm but smiling none the less before she got up and left to go invite him in. And with that, I turn my light off and went to bed and was very thankful, that I didn't get nightmares.

And for once, I slept a peace night without any complications, and was looking forward to the new day.
