Full Summary of Story:

The story is kind of based of my other story Cherry Blossom's Protector as Elena and Damon are past lovers, she also was with Stefan at one point in the past but she died which will be brought up how sometime in the story.

A witch had told both brothers Elena will be reborned again without memories of her past life. Stefan being the greedy one decided to get Elena to be his as soon as possible which will also be told in the story.

Damon on the other hand wanted Elena to have her teenage life before entering her life again, until he found out Stefan was going to marry Elena in 11months time.

There's one thing the witch didn't tell them was Elena would regain her past life memories the year of her 19th Birthday.

Author Note:

PROLOGUE

A twenty year old girl with long dark brown hair, olive skin and chocolate brown eyes sat in a pair of black shorts and a purple singlet top. She leaned against her window seat while writing in her diary which she hadn't touch for six months.

Dear Diary,

I'm Elena Gilbert, I am twenty years old and live in Mystic Falls, I have two amazing best friends who I think of as my sisters, one older brother who has supported me with every choice I have made in my life as long as I am happy and one wonderful boyfriend who I love deeply.

You must think my life is wonderful and perfect like how I am saying right now, I wish I could say it was but it wasn't as perfect as it seems to be.

Three years ago my parents had arranged my life already for me; I was to be married to Stefan Salvatore right after I graduated high school. At the time I loved Stefan with all my heart and did what my parents told me to do, I never was a rebel back when I was eighteen.

That was until I met him, the guy with icy blue eyes that came to town and stole my heart right away, I found out things about my past life that I wish I knew sooner.

I thought being just friends with my past life's lover would do. But I knew deep down it wouldn't work.

Though the question to everyone reading my story is: How can you simply be friends with someone when every time you look at them, you're thinking about how much more you really want?

Yeah confusing isn't it? I was to marry Stefan whom I thought I loved back then, but also had very strong feelings for the guy with icy blue eyes who stole my heart in my past life and also the first day I met him again in this life.

Back then though I was in denial I didn't believe about my past life when the icy blue eyed guy tried to tell me about it, I also never did anything for myself even though I wasn't happy with my life back then, until I found out everything.

This story is about my life from two years ago up until now...

Chapter One: First Day of Senior Year

Two Years ago...

"Elena, get up… Stefan is going to be here in an hour and you are going to miss your first day of senior year at high school, it wouldn't be a great start would it?" Elena's mother, Miranda, said as she pulled the covers of her stubborn daughter. "Elllleeena"

"I'm up." Elena said groggily as she sat up in her bed swinging her stiff legs out the side. "See up and ready to go."

Miranda smiled in victory and left the room to let her get ready.

Elena sighed as she went through her closet to find something to wear. In the end she decided to wear long skinny black jeans, red singlet top with a black leather jacket that cut off above her waist and her black boots, leaving her hair to sway her with her waist down.

Elena looked at herself in the vanity mirror one last time and then headed out of her room, downstairs to the kitchen.

Her father, Grayson, was reading the morning's newspaper and her brother Jeremy was eating his breakfast while listening to music.

"Honey, why wear something like that?" Miranda asked as she looked at Elena's outfit with distaste as Elena came into the kitchen.

"I'd rather wear jeans over skirts mom." Elena replied, sitting down next to her brother and playfully punching his arm.

Miranda made a noise of disapproval as she placed Elena's plate down in front of her.

"Elena dear what are we going to do with you?" She asked her daughter

"Erm let me leave home and get married when I want to." Elena replied back, taking a bite of her bacon.

"You love Stefan though." Miranda said as she sat down next to Grayson.

"Yeah but I'm eighteen I don't want to marry so young."

"Your mother and I only want the best for you Elena." Grayson finally spoke up.

"Your brother wasn't this much trouble." Miranda said, looking over longingly at Jeremy.

"Keep me out of this, please." He asked as he swallowed his eggs.

"My brother is a guy mom, besides he is dating one of my best friends who happen to be rich which is why you guys haven't complained." Elena replied, rolling her brown eyes in annoyance.

Before any of them could reply to Elena there was a knock on the front door, Miranda went to answer the door.

An eighteen year old guy that had dark blonde hair, a toned muscle body and green eyes, was standing outside the door.

"Stefan, how nice to see you." Miranda said, smiling as she let the guy in.

"Nice to see you too Mrs. Gilbert" He replied politely.

"Nonsense; it's Miranda remember?" Miranda said as she lead him into the kitchen.

Elena got up from where she sat, took her plate to the kitchen sink, then grabbed her school bag and headed over to Stefan.

Stefan leaned forwards and gave her a kiss on the cheek, taking her school bag off her. Miranda smiled in approval.

Stefan always knew how to keep on my parents good side, he was such a gentleman and I was so in love with him back then. Both of my parents approved of him. He did not know how suffocating I felt though with home life because he had the same views like my parents. A woman should not have to work or study after high school as their role in life was to stay at home, look after the kids and cook.

"Let's go" Elena said, wanting to get out of the house already. Stefan nodded and headed out after saying bye to everyone.

"Bye mom, dad, Jer." She yelled quickly, hurrying off behind Stefan.

As soon as she got into the passenger seat of Stefan's car and closed the door, she sighed.

"Let me guess, your mom gave you the 101 again on what you are wearing?" Stefan said, getting into the driver's side of the car.

Elena rolled her eyes. "Yeah, you would think after two years of saying the same thing over and over again and nothing changing, she would stop but no."

"Well you have only got this year left in the house and then next year you'll be with me." He replied, trying to think of the positive side of things as he pulled out of the driveway.

Elena sighed and looked out the window "I suppose, but do you really want to get married at eighteen?"

"We will actually be nineteen by the time we marry." He said matter-of-factly.

"But is it what we want? Not what our parents want." Elena asked.

"I love you Elena; that's all that matters. I can't see myself marrying anyone else but you." He said, still eyes on the road.

Elena blushed a little, she was still getting use to him telling her he loved her but she never grew tired of it because she felt the same.

"I love you too Stefan but I want to see the whole world before settling down. I mean I do want to marry you but not so young." she said, looking over towards her boyfriend.

"I know but there's nothing we can do about it." He said as he finally looked over to her and shrugged.

Stefan always was the one to keep things at peace when it came to our parents. He did not really understand how much I wanted to escape it all but also go with whatever our parents wanted too. There was something very different and strange about him that I couldn't place my finger on back then.

The journey to school was a quite one after that.

As they pulled into the parking lot at Mystic Falls High School, Stefan spoke up again.

"Don't know if I told you but my brother Damon will be coming into town today for awhile and my parents wanted to invite you over for dinner." He said with a note of annoyance and distaste in his voice.

"You have a brother? Why didn't you tell me?" She said, confused. They're not even married yet and there're secrets. Yep, this was going to be one healthy relationship.

"Damon is older than me. He's twenty-four and well we don't really see eye to eye in a lot of things. He left town a few years ago on a bad note." Stefan replied as he and Elena hoped out in unison.

"Why?" Elena's curiosity getting the better of her like usual.

"Don't want to talk about it." Stefan said dryly, in a tone that told Elena not to push it, and they headed up to the school.

"Elena!" An eighteen year old girl with long blonde hair and blue eyes wearing a pair of white long jeans, nude heels and a pink singlet top came towards her.

Another girl who was eighteen with dark brown skin, brown eyes and brown curly hair wearing blue jeans and a purple top followed her.

"Caroline! Bonnie!" Elena said, smiling at her two best friends that were heading towards her. Stefan kissed Elena one last time before heading off to his friends knowing it was better to give the girls space or he'll never hear the end of it.

Caroline Forbes and Bonnie Bennett were the greatest friends I ever had, I could go to either of them for anything that was on my mind. They were like sisters to me and I have known them since we were all five years old.

Caroline is what I call the human Barbie Doll but don't tell her I told you that. She was Queen Bee of Mystic Falls High School, if you got on her bad side well it was social suicide. Every girl wanted to be her and all guys wanted to date her. She was pretty but not stupid she was a control freak too when it came to organizing events.

Bonnie on the other hand was like me, straight A student, loves to read, of course was dating my brother Jeremy which I was totally cool with. Bonnie was the quiet one of the group but she did have her moments, Caroline did try to boss her around a lot too.

"Are you guys excited? Senior year already!" Caroline squealed

"Yeah..." Elena and Bonnie both said in unison and rolled their eyes.

"Oh come on guys, we got the bonfire night coming up that we got to organize, Homecoming later this year too and loads more events." Caroline said squealed again.

"We?" Elena noticed, raising an eyebrow at Caroline.

"Who says we'll help you Care?" Bonnie asked.

Caroline put her hands on her hips and looked at her two best friends before her.

"Because you guys love me and are the best friends I could ask for." She said with full confidence.

Bonnie and Elena tried to stare at Caroline seriously but ended up laughing with Caroline as they all hugged each other.

"Sisters." Elena corrected her.

Caroline rolled her eyes and smiled "Yes, Sisterhood for life."

Suddenly the bell rang, which meant homeroom time.

"Let's go then, we better not be late to homeroom on the first day of senior year." Bonnie suggested.

Caroline flipped her blonde hair cockily. "Tyler and Matt will cover for us if we are a little bit late anyways."

"You got to stop playing with both of them Care, they are best friends and they are going to ruin their friendship over you once they find out both are kissing the same girl." Elena said, not happy at how Caroline could be sometimes with guys especially Matt and Tyler who she had known since she was five years old too.

"Where's the fun in that?" Caroline asked.
