For 145 years, I've lived in secret, hiding in the shadows, alone in the world until now. My name is Sara Salvatore I am a vampire and this is my story.

I stood on the roof of my house. I know the risk, but I feel I have to know her now. I want to be her friend. Plus there's someone else that I want to know. I then jumped off the roof for no reason.

The following day, I walked into the school. I could tell that all eyes were on me. It was a school where everybody knew everybody and nobody knew me. I was probably easy to look at, wearing my black leather jacket, grey top, and black skirt. I didn't mind having a certain sex appeal. I had dressed sultrier in the past and taken advantage of it. I'm not proud of some of the things I've done.

I walked into the attendance office to complete my registration. I handed what little paperwork I had to the secretary.

"You're missing immunization records and we do require transcripts." The secretary told me.

"Please look again." I compelled, lowering my sunglasses. "I'm sure everything you need is there."

"So it is." She murmured. "Welcome to Mystic Falls High, Miss Salvatore."

After I was done in there, I went towards the bathroom to touch up my makeup. As I got closer, I happened to run into a guy. It wasn't just any guy. It was him.

"Sorry." I apologized. I then looked at the sign. "Isn't this the ladies room?"

"Yeah, uh, you don't wanna know." He answered with a blush. I tried stepping out of his way more than once, but we kept moving the same direction. I decided just to stand against the wall. Why did he have to be so cute? I didn't mean to fall for him. He wasn't even the person I was interested in.

Later, I was in History. I actually spent a lot of time wondering I should register as a junior or sophomore. I decided that I would register as a sophomore. From what I found out, he was the more sociable one. The teacher droned on in a lecture about stuff that I already knew. I didn't really like school. There was a reason that I tended to avoid it, but in order to convince people that I'm a regular small-town teenager, I need to go to school.

After school, I went to the cemetery. I had a lot of family there, but that wasn't the reason. I had a feeling that he would be there. As I got closer, I noticed him fall to ground. He had been visiting his parents. He looked a little freaked out.

"Hi." I greeted him.

"Did you follow me here?" He asked.

"No, but I saw you fall." I replied. "I wanted to see if you were okay."

"And you just happened to be chilling in the cemetery." He replied. I lowered my head.

"I was visiting someone." I lied. I could have been.

"Wow, I'm sorry for being such a jerk." He declared. "I'm Jeremy."

"Sara." I responded.

"I know." He told me. "We have History together."

"And Art and Biology." I corrected.

"Nice ring." He commented as he looked at the blue stone on my finger.

"Thanks. It's a family ring." I replied. It was at that moment that I happened to smell his blood. I turned my face away so he wouldn't see what was happening to me. "Did you hurt yourself?"

He pulled up the leg of his jeans and there was a definite wound. The urge grew stronger.'

"Wow that is not good." He commented. "That needs some attention."

"You should take care of that." I suggested, still not looking at him.

"It's really not that bad." He replied. He had turned his back to me and I decided that I would make my exit. I didn't exactly leave, but I noticed his journal was lying on the ground. Before I returned to him, I knew that I needed to write in my own first. I grabbed it, knowing it would give me an excuse to see him.

Dear Diary,
I lost control today. It took all that I had to get away from him. I don't know what I would have done if I hadn't been able to control myself. I try so hard to keep this hidden and it almost came out. I don't know if I'll be able to resist him.

I went to his house. I was about to knock when the door suddenly opened. He was surprised to see me.

"I was about to knock." I stated. "I thought I should apologize for wigging out on you earlier. That was rude of me."

"It's not that big of a deal. Lots of people have problems around blood." Jeremy told me.

"Let's go with that." I remarked. "So, is your leg okay?"

"Yeah, it just needed a little medicine and a Band-Aid." He replied. "How did you know where I lived anywhere?"

I was going to say that I was technically stalking him and his sister throughout the summer.

"I checked the phonebook." I improvised. I don't know if many people used phonebooks anymore, but I think it was an acceptable excuse. I then reached into my handbag and pulled the book out. "I thought I should return this."

"I must have dropped it." He stated. "Thank you."

"I didn't read any of it." I declared, as if I needed to.

"Why not?" He questioned. "You know not many guys have something like this."

"Well I wouldn't want anyone to read my diary." I explained. "If I don't write things down, I tend to forget them. I want to keep my memories."

"Yeah." He agreed. "I need to put this up. You don't have to wait outside."

"I'm really fine." I declared, not being able to enter because that really was not an invitation. He came back to the door. "Are you going somewhere?"

"Yeah, I'm hanging out with some friends. Would you like to come with? I'm sure Bonnie wouldn't mind." He replied.

As we walked, he told me about how he was friends with Bonnie and Caroline.

"Do you not have guy friends?" I asked curiously.

"Well they actually used to be friends with my sister." He told me. "We ended becoming friends when I was trying to get her to hang out with them again to no avail."

I knew all about Elena. She had turned to drugs after the accident.

"I used to be friends with her boyfriend, but we don't hang out much since they broke up." He added.

When we got to Mystic Grill, we were seated at a table with Caroline and Bonnie. I noticed Caroline was looking at me. I think she might have been bisexual. I had experimented with it in the past, but I had come to the realization that I was completely straight.

"So you were born in Mystic Falls?" The blonde asked.

"Yeah, I moved as a kid." I answered. Well in proportion to my long life, it was essentially a child.

"Parents?" Bonnie questioned.

"My parents are dead." I declared. "I live with my uncle."

"I'm sorry." Jeremy replied. I kind of hated sympathy since it was so long ago. "Any siblings?"

"None that I talk to." I answered. It had been a long time since I had seen my brother.

"So Sara, if you're new, you don't know the party tomorrow night. " Caroline remarked.

"It's a back-to-school thing at the falls." Bonnie explicated.

"Are you going?" I asked Jeremy. I then blushed. I need to be more subtle.

"Of course he is." Bonnie answered for him. Well I think she wants us together. I nervously smiled at him.

When I got home, I began to change for bed. When my door suddenly opened. It was my very great nephew Zach. He was holding a newspaper. I quickly pulled my nightie down.

"You promised." He declared. I didn't know what he was talking about. I read the newspaper and saw an article about an animal attack.

"This was an animal attack." I pointed out.

"Don't give me that." He responded. "You tear up the bodies to make it look like an animal did it. I thought you said that you had it under control."

"I do." I reiterated.

"Please Aunt Sara. Mystic Falls is a different place now. It's been quiet for years." Zach stated. "But there are people who still remember. You being here is just gonna cause trouble."

"That's not my intention." I replied.

"Well what is?" He asked. "Why did you come back?"

"I don't have to explain myself, Zach." I pointed out.

"I know that you can't change what you are, but coming back was a mistake." He remarked. "You don't belong here."

"Where do I belong?" I asked him with a tear in my eye.

He left the room and I opened a cabinet to many of my old diaries. Most of them had a year printed on them. I opened one to see a picture of Katherine Pierce. She was my first love, but I was done with girls. Maybe I had a few leftover feelings, but I was moving on.

The next day in History the teacher, Mr. Tanner, was lecturing about the Battle of Willow Creek. It was a night I remembered well. He went around the room asking about the casualties. No one seemed to know.

"What about you Jeremy?" He asked.

"I don't know." Jeremy answered.

"I was willing to be lenient last year, but now things have changed." Tanner replied. Okay, this guy is a dick.

"There were casualties, not counting civilians." I interrupted.

"That's correct, Miss…" Tanner replied.

"Salvatore. Sara Salvatore." I told him.

"Salvatore? Any relation to the original settlers here in Mystic Falls?" He asked curiously.

"Distantly." I remarked, not wanting anyone to know one of them was my father.

"Very good, except there were no civilian casualties." He remarked.

"Actually there were 27, Sir." I responded. "Confederate soldiers set a church on fire believing it was housing weapons. They were wrong. It was a night of great loss. You can check the archives if you need to check up on your facts, Mr. Tanner."

I am glad that I got to do that.

That night I went to the party wearing a white top with a black miniskirt and hose and black heels. There was alcohol and drug use all around. I might have actually been overdressed. I'm not a fan of teen parties. I began to look for Jeremy, I even heard him talking about me with Bonnie but I was intercepted by Caroline.

"There you are." She declared. "I'm glad that you made it."

"I made it." I repeated.

"Let's get you a drink." She told me before she dragged me off.

After a minute, I was able to elude Caroline and made my way over to Jeremy. I walked over to him and showed up behind him. He surprised.

"I need to stop doing that." I remarked. "Are you upset about something?"

"No, it's just Bonnie is acting…you know what? Never mind, you're here."

"Yes I am." I stated. "Do you want to come take a walk with me, get away from the crowd."

We began to walk toward the bridge over the falls.

"You know you're kind of big news." He stated.

"Am I?" I asked.

"It's not often that we get new students, let alone ones as good-looking as you." He explained. "Plus you have this mysterious thing to you."

"Well you're kind of mysterious too." I pointed out. "You're twinged in sadness."

"What makes you thing that I'm sad?" Jeremy asked in surprise.

"Well we did meet in a cemetery." I reminded him.

"Technically we met outside the girl's bathroom." He corrected. "You still don't want to know about that. It involves my sister. It's not exactly party talk."

"Well I'm not really good at party talk." I replied.

"Last spring, my parents' car drove off a bridge. My sister was in the backseat. She survived. They didn't." He explained. Of course I knew this because I was there.

"You're not going to be sad forever, Jeremy." I told him.

We talked a few minutes before I noticed Caroline was looking over.

"Caroline can't seem to stop looking at us." I said.

"Caroline and I actually did date a little before the accident, but it was never serious." Jeremy explained. "I think she's looking at you though, which is kind of hot."

We stood still for a moment, before I realized that my face was vamping out.

"Is something your with your eye?" He asked.

I quickly covered them.

"There's something in it. I'm gonna go get another drink." I remarked quickly before I strode away.

When I went back out to the party, I was once again ambushed by Caroline.

"There you are." She remarked. Her breath reeked of alcohol. "Have you been to the falls yet because they're really cool at night?"

"Caroline, I think you've had too many." I declared.

"Of course I have." She said as she grabbed my hand.

"Caroline, I'm trying to be as gentle as possible, but I don't like girls." I told her as I broke free of her grasp. "I'm sorry."

I walked back over to Jeremy.

"I guess I was right." He commented.

"Is she always like that?" I asked.

"No, she'll probably be back to go after guys soon." Jeremy declared. "You've gotta be kidding me."

"What is it?" I asked before I noticed Elena.

"My sister is walking into the woods alone which isn't dangerous or anything." He stated. "I'll be right back."

"I can help." I offered.

"Trust me. You don't want to be involved in this." Jeremy said before walking away.

After a few minutes, the two of them ran out of the woods caring a girl's body. She was still breathing. She was bleeding from her neck. I'm pretty sure that I knew exactly who it was. I broke away from the crowd and ran off, rushing home.

"What happened?" Zach asked.

"Someone else was attacked it wasn't me." I explained as I ran upstairs. I noticed my window was open and there was a crow. I looked as he entered.

"Damon." I commented

"Hello, Sister." He remarked.

"Don't you think the bird is overdoing it?" I asked.

"Wait until you see what I can do with the fog." Damon countered.

"When did you get here?" I inquired.

"Well, I couldn't miss my baby sister's first day of school." He quipped as he looked around my room. "Your hair's different. That's rat's nest of a grunge look didn't suit you. Remember Sara. It's important to stay away from fads."

"It's been 15 years, Damon." I pointed out. I knew what he was doing here and I didn't like it. "Why are you here?"

"I miss you." He replied.

"You hate small towns. You said they bore you." I reminded him as he paced my room.

"I've managed to keep myself entertained." Damon declared.

"You left that girl alive. That's clumsy of you." I said.

"That could be a problem…for you." He smirked.

"Why are you here?" I repeated

"I could ask you the same thing." He deflected. "But I'm pretty sure the answer is Elena. She a dead ringer for Katherine, though I think the reason has changed to her brother Jeremy. How long has it been since you've had a boyfriend? So does being around him make you feel human?"

"What are you doing?" I inquired.

"I just think that it's great you're no longer trying to steal my girls. I may have to check Elena out some time, or maybe I could go overprotective big brother on Jeremy."

"Stop." I told him.

"His blood must taste amazing." Damon taunted me.

"I SAID STOP!" I yelled as I lunged at him, pushing him out my window. Though, I was the only one to hit the ground and it really hurt. I looked around for my brother after I got up, watching the cuts on my arms fade away.

"Not bad, I give it a 6. You could have had a better landing, but the face was great." Damon said.

"You think this is all fun and games, but everywhere you go people die." I reminded him.

"That's a given." He stated.

"I'm not letting you do it here." I boasted. I don't know I would prevent it, but I would do something.

"What are you gonna do?" He asked.

"Damon, I'm asking you to give it up already. Just stop tormenting me." I requested.

"I believed I promised an eternity of misery." He declared. "What kind of man would I be if I didn't live up to that?"

"A better one." I told him.

"Where's your ring, Sis?" He asked. I then noticed my fingers were all bare. "You might want that if you don't want to be dust. Relax. I've got it."

I put it on my finger before he grabbed me and through me into the fence. Okay, that was painful.

"You shouldn't try to think you're stronger than me." He warned me. "You made that choice when you stopped drinking human blood. Hey, I think we woke Zach up."

Dear Diary
I had a plan, but as always Damon wants to wreck it. I won't let him this time. I will fight him if I have to because I know I feel something for Jeremy.

After I got up, I went to Jeremy's house. I wanted to make sure that he was safe at home because Damon couldn't get in as long as he was. I think he saw me by his window. He went came down and opened the door.

"I know it's late, but I just wanted to make sure you were okay." I told him

"That's what people have been asking me since school started." He responded.

"What do you say?" I asked.

"I'll be fine." He answered. "I don't know if I mean it though. Do you wanna come in?"

"Yes." I stated as I entered.

So, in addition to turning Stefan into a girl, I wanted to think what it would be like if Jeremy was the main character. So his and Elena's lives are switched. Elena is a lesbian in this but not into Sara. Please don't forget to review.
