My Hair is Curls, Her Hair is Straight

Dear Diary,

Even though today is my first day of school. Again. This time I'm going with my twin sister Elena. Over the past few years since elementary school, I've been traveling the world. Well if you count New York, Paris, London, Italy, and California as traveling the world. Though today is my first time going somewhere with my sister since we are complete opposites. Even though we look alike I've always had curls while Elena has none. I didn't understand it at first but… I got used to liking my curls when I realized it's an advantage to realizing whose who between my sister and I. Today is a new day when everyone will realize that… Elena Gilbert's TWIN sister returns to Mystic Falls, Virginia after eight years of traveling. My sister didn't understand why I would come back since I'm an emancipated minor unlike my sister who got adopted along with our little sister and brother. Well, I hope well that something will change for once in my life.

With luck,

Olivia Pierce

I stopped writing in my diary and sighed, looking out the window as my sister continues to write in hers. I could tell by the look on her face that she still isn't happy even though I'm here, her twin. I could relate to her, it's what I feel half of the time when I was traveling though I could get the feeling something about Mystic Falls is about change big time.

Elena and I were in my black Mercedes (where I bought in Europe) with me in the drivers seat and Elena in the passenger seat as she looked out the window and me at the road. We arrived on the campus and I parked my car where I could recognize near Bonnie and Caroline.

My sister unbuckled her seatbelt as I paused for a moment after I turned the engine off before I spoke.

"Elena," I spoke softly that had her freeze in place. I continued, "Do you have that feeling that something would… change and I don't mean not just us but everyone in Mystic falls?"

Elena was silent as she contemplated my question before she answered, "I hope… but I don't get my hopes up only to have them crushed."

I watched silently while watching my sister with a hesitant stare as she got out of the car. I leaned back for a moment in my seat before I shook my head and got out of the car with my school back as I put my sunglasses on.

Today was going to be interesting, I thought as I put my cool demeanor on my face.

I followed Elena, a few steps away as everyone's gaze was drawn to my sister and I but mostly me considering I was new. I could tell why they would stare I mean I couldn't deny that I wasn't beautiful.

My black hair was down which fell down to the "v" that was above my chest, my skin would be paler than my sister, and my body was an hourglass figure similar to Elena. Today I was wearing a black t-shirt with a leather vest, my dark blue skinny jeans hugged my legs, black ballet flats, and dark violet leather jacket. To practically every human specimen I was a hot.

"Elena," Bonnie and Caroline kept shouting out while I let a small smile flow my lips for Bonnie but a little sneer for Caroline. She and I never got along and boy was I happy to. We didn't have anything in common and she was practically flaunting herself to other boys.

My sister jogged over to them as - I could easily recognize - a fake smile paste her face and greeted them.

"Hey, guys," she said as I came by her side once she began reintroducing us, "Bonnie, Caroline, you recognize my sister Olivia right?"

I could see Bonnie's eyes light up and Caroline's face cools through the shades of my sunglasses.

As they looked at me, I smirked and mock saluted them that had all of them roll their eyes at me.

When Bonnie and Caroline looked behind us, their eyes widened that had Elena and I turning around. My eyes widened at the sight of an expensive car and instantly narrowed my eyes at the back of the guys head as he got out of his car.

Today was really going to be interesting.
