Chapter One: Salvatore Returns!

'Kat! Allie! Hurry up! You'll be late for school!' Justin screamed as he looked at his reflection in the mirror to make sure everything was perfect. He spiked his short black hair up, fixed his red and blue striped shirt and pushed off any dust on his blue jeans.

'I'm already downstairs you blue-eyed fool.' Kat said as she came out of the kitchen. Kat was wearing a purple top with her black leather jacket, black jeans and some nice black heeled boots. She had long black-brown hair which curled at the end and hazel eyes to match. Kat also wore black mascara, light red lipstick, a thin layer of eyeliner, a little blusher and a light shade of purple eye shadow.

'Allie! I'm going to leave if you don't hurry it up!' Justin shouted again.

'I'm here.' Said a girl with blonde curly hair (shoulder-length) and emerald green eyes. She wore a red top with a short jean skirt along with red lipstick, red eye shadow and black mascara.

'Did you get my bag?' Kat asked.

'Yeah. Take it.' Allie said as she handed Kat a black side bag.

'Thanks. Let's go.' They all walked outside to see Tyler waiting outside his car.

'I feel utterly sorry for you Kat.' Justin smirked and walked into his own car.

'I'll meet you guys at school.' Kat sighed and walked towards Tyler.

'Hey babe. How's your morning?' Tyler asked as he kissed Kat.

'That actually depends. How was your night?' Kat said and walked into the car. Tyler entered and started the car.

'What'd you mean?' Tyler asked.

'Let me give you a hint. It's one word and involves a waitress at the Grill.'

'Why do you always have to involve Vicki? She has nothing to do with us.' Tyler said with frustration.

'She has nothing to do with us? Tyler. You're dating her whilst dating me.'

'That's not true.'

'I am very disgusting to say this but I have pictures.' As soon as Kat said that, Tyler stopped the car.

'What?' He exclaimed.

'I was sent pictures of you and Vicki together last night. I don't know by who or why or even how. I don't really care about that, I care that you lied to my face.'

'Oh come on Kat. I'm sorry. I wa-' Tyler was interrupted by Kat.

'I'm sorry, I was drunk, I wasn't thinking straight, I care about you, I love you, Give me another chance, please.' Kat said in a high pitched voice. 'That's what you were about to say.' She said. There was a moment of silence and then Kat grabbed her bag and got out of the car. She started walking towards the school and Tyler followed her, in his car, driving beside her.

'Come on Kat. Get in the car.' Tyler said out the window.

'What's even amazing is that you still want to date me.'

'We've been together for 3 months.'

'Awww. You kept count?' Kat stopped and acted like she cared. Tyler nodded.

'Yeah.' He smiled.

'Still don't care.' Kat said and carried on walking. 'And for your information it was 4 months. Just go to Vicki.'

'Kat.' Tyler whined.

'Bye Tyler.' Kat said and turned into school whilst Tyler had to park his car. Kat walked into Mr Tanner's class and the whole class stopped and looked at her. At that point she realised she was late.

'Ah. Miss Valentine. Nice of you to join us. What's your excuse this time?'

'I walked to school and was followed by a dog.' Kat smiled. Elena and Bonnie chuckled as they knew the 'dog' was Tyler.

'Very funny. Detention.' Tanner said harshly.

'I was only late 5 minutes.'

'You missed an important part of the lesson.'

'The register?'

'Sit down or it will be a trip to the principle's office.' He threatened.

'Hmmm. Sit down and listen to nonsense or go to principle's office and get sent home and have a party. Which one should I choose?' Kat smiled and held her two hands out like weighing scales.

'To the principle's office. Now!' He bellowed his voice.

'I thought I was meant to choose.' Kat smirked. She then turned to face Elena to quickly tell her something when she realised a new face.

'Miss Valentine. Leave my classroom.'

'I didn't know we had a newbie. Who is the newbie?' Kat asked Tanner.

'Leave!' He shouted and opened the door for her.

'Okay. Newbie. State your full name.' Kat said as she walked towards the door slowly.

'It's Stefan Salvatore.' Bonnie shouted and smiled. Kat stopped.

'Salvatore?' Kat said as if she recognised that name.

'Come one Kat.' Tanner said. Kat looked in amazement as Tanner. He had never used a student's first name before.

'I'm going just need to tell…Elena and Bonnie, Grill.' Kat shouted as she walked out the door. She decided to skip the whole principle lecture and skip straight to the being sent home part.

She walked up to the door and suddenly realised a crow standing near my letter box.

'Aren't crows meant to be near big old trees?' She asked the crow. Suddenly the front door opened and appeared an angry looking Justin leaning against the door.

'Your school called.' He said.

'Really? That happened faster than I thought.' She shrugged.

'Kat. You have to stop all this. Where do you expect to go?'

'Nowhere. I expect to live and die here in Mystic Falls.'

'How are you going to live? I'm going to leave pretty soon for university.'

'Of course. Just like everyone else in my life. Look, I just want to live my life. Whatever I choose to do and whatever ends up happening will happen. Life is full of mysteries.'

'I know you've had a hard life but you can't keep using that as an excuse.'

'It's not an excuse. It's actually what turned my life around. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go grab a few drinks and probably throw a scene.' Kat smiled and walked towards the Grill. Justin would've stopped her but he knew it was no use and it wouldn't have made a difference to her at all.

Elena and Bonnie arrived at the Grill along with Stefan. They joined Kat who was sitting alone at a table with 3 empty bottles of vodka.

'Wow. Kat. Are you feeling alright?' Elena asked as she sat down.

'I'm fine. Hey, did you notice everyone especially Caroline was staring at the newbie.' She said whilst smiling towards Stefan.

'Yeah. Kat, his name is Stefan.'

'Yes. Stefan Salvatore.'

'You have to excuse her, she's drunk.'

'Not entirely. Stefan, you live up in that big old mansion with Zach. Don't you?'

'Yeah. Do you know him?'

'You bet I do.' Kat smirked and sat back.

'Ignore her. Kat why don't you go and see Tyler?'

'Sure, part of my agenda was to create a scene.' She smiled and got up. She quickly scanned the room for Tyler but couldn't find him but she did see Vicki and walked towards her.

'Hello Vicki.' Kat smiled.

'Kat, look about Tyler-' Vicki was interrupted.

'Don't sweat it. You can have him. I don't think if you've noticed but he's kind of an ass.' Kat chuckled and walked towards the stage. She told the band she wanted to sing a song and they didn't mind.

'Hello everybody. My name's Kat Valentine but I'm sure you all knew that. Anyways, I'm going to sing a song that I wrote recently. Here we go.

This whole routine is getting old
So am I, and so are you
My reputation lets me know
I can do whatever I want to
Though it seems that you believe
You can do whatever it is you please
Not before, Not before you wind up on your knees
Don't cry to me no more

You like the way that people stare at you
Now you look so fake,
just thought that you should know
And you're all the same,
and when the curtain drops down
You'll be replaced by something typical

You set yourself up to the sold
and that's ok cause that's your role
Manipulation takes its toll
What will you do when nobody wants you
Though it seems that you believe
You can do whatever it is you please
Not before, Not before you wind up on your knees
Don't cry to me no more

You like the way that people stare at you
Now you look so fake,
just thought that you should know
And you're all the same,
and when the curtain drops down
You'll be replaced by something typical

I know, I've stood so long beside you
And I know, I should've left you right where I had found you
I know, I've stood so long beside you
And I know, I should've left you right where I had found you

You like the way that people stare at you
Now you look so fake,
just thought that you should know
And you're all the same,
and when the curtain drops down
You'll be replaced by something typical

You like the way that people stare at you
Now you look so fake,
just thought that you should know
And you're all the same,
and when the curtain drops down
You'll be replaced by something typical.'

Kat smiled as she heard a bunch of cheers and 'woos.' She got off the stage and headed towards the door when Tyler stopped her.

'Hi.' Kat smiled.

'I can't believe you.' He said in disgust.

'What?'

'That song you just sang. Why would you do that?'

'You think that songs about you don't you? Well guess what, it's not! You vain creature.' Kat lied and walked outside the Grill. She walked home, changed into her pyjamas and jumped into bed.

*At The Salvatore House*

'Hey uncle Stefan. How was school?' Zach asked as he saw Stefan appear in the living room.

'It was good. Do you know a girl called Kat Valentine?'

'Yeah. Why?'

'When she heard my name she stopped and wondered as if she's heard my name before or knew me and she also said she knows you.'

'Kat's parents were killed by vampires. We've both been trying to track him down but we weren't able to figure out who he was. We spent a lot of time together and well we became good friends. But you can't tell her you're a vampire. Let her know you or better yet let her find out you're a vampire. It'll be easier for her than to get dumped with information.'

'When you say friends, do you really mean friends?' Stefan smiled. Zach shook his head and went to him room.
