Chapter 1: Noticed
EPOV
It's been three months. Three fucking months since my life turned to absolute hell. There are no words that will show how much I miss my mom and dad. I miss the chocolate chip Mickey Mouse pancakes my dad used to make every Sunday morning and the notes my mother would leave me just to let me know how important I am to her. My parents, Grayson and Miranda Gilbert, died three months ago today as they were hit by a drunk driver after their weekly date night. I was out at a friends place when I got a call from my big sister Katherine.
*Flashback*
RING RING RING
"Hey Kat! What's up?"
"Lena, you need to get to Mystic Falls Hospital right now. Like NOW!" She yelled barely breathing.
"Katherine, KAT! Breathe! What happened?! What's going on?" I said so quickly not knowing if she heard what I said.
"Mom. Mom and Dad. Oh my god, Elena what are we going to do? They..They were in a car accident Lena and..and th..they were hit by a drunk driver and oh god! Lena please, just here quick. Jer and Isobel are here. Just please hurry," Katherine said shakily.
"Kat, I'm on my way. I'll be there in 10. Breathe, everything's going to be okay," Hopefully, I thought. "I love you. I'll be there soon," I said while starting my car.
"Love you too sis," She said before hanging up.
*End of flashback*
Everything just happened so quickly. One second I was laughing and having a good time with my friends then next thing I knew my whole world came crashing down. I haven't been the same since that night. I wouldn't exactly say that I've ever been a 'good girl', but I haven't been the person that I am now. I've lost my self and honestly, I don't think I'll ever go back to the 'Elena Marie Gilbert' everyone knew and loved.
Today's the first day back to school and it's my senior year. Although, I should be excited about it…all I feel is sadness because at the end of the day I don't have my parents to come home to. I know I have to stay strong for Kat and Jer. My little brother Jeremy is a Junior and his coping method, like any depressed teenager, is smoking weed and having sex with Vicki Donovan, my asshole of an ex-boyfriend's super senior sister. Then there's my twin sister Katherine, who I couldn't be more close to, but since the death of my parents we've slightly drifted apart. To be truthful, I've closed myself off from everyone. I haven't talked much to Bonnie or even Caroline and if there's one person to get me to talk, it's her. That girl just doesn't know when to shut it but I love her anyway.
"Hey bitch!" I hear Caroline yell from behind me as I was walking into the school losing my train of thought.
"Hey Care," I said softly as she came in for a bear hug.
"Look Lena, I know this year's gonna be extra hard with your family issues and all, but you know that I'll be here for you no matter what. You don't just have me, you have Kat, Bon, and even Elijah so turn that frown upside down and lets go find Bon"
"I know Care…look why don't you go find Bon and I'll meet you guys in first period kay?" I said smiling weakly and walking away as fast as possible.
CPOV
Ohh god Elena's so sad. I'm her best friend I should know who to help her cope, but I don't know how to help someone who doesn't seem like they want to be help. I miss my best friend and I know she's somewhere and I refuse to give up on her.
"Hey Bonnie, I talked to Elena…she's…she's hanging in there but anyway, I told her that we'd meet her first period since we all have English," I said while grabbing Bonnie's arm and walking to class. Lena, Bon and I have been best friends since we were 4 years old and we occasionally let Kat in, but we're usually just a trio for everything in life.
"Ohh jeez Care, easy on the grabbing," She said smiling, "Elena hasn't really opened up to anyone since her parents death and that jackass of a human being dumping her because she wasn't in the mood for sex didn't help," she said with anger in her voice.
"Well, one day, hopefully soon, karma will strike Matt Donovan straight in the ass," I said giggling. "Annnd here we're here. Ughh one more year of this bullshit then I'm outie 500!" I whispered as we walked into English 12 with Mrs. Jackson thinking what a day this will be.
BPOV
"Alright class, the bell has rung. Sit in your seats please. Now, I know who most of are, but I'm going to go around the room anyway for introductions," she said as everyone got situated.
"Caroline Forbes. Here. Joseph Costa. Here. Rachael Sawyer. Here…" She went on as Elena walked into the room. I got up and immediately gave her a hug and she hugged me back.
"Hey Lenny. You excited for our senior year?" I said with as much excitement as I could in this situation.
"Uhh, yeah I guess so," she said softly with a slight smile.
"Ahh Mrs. Gilbert, I see you've finally decided to show up," Mrs. Jackson snapped towards Elena, Caroline, and I.
"I'm like 5 minutes late. What's the big deal?" I was shocked to see how Elena responded with just as much cruelness.
"How about we discuss this after class or say in detention?" Mrs. Jackson said with an evil grin.
"Well good luck with that because I won't be showing up to either. Now correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you have a class to teach," Elena said in obvious annoyance leaving the whole class silent and Mrs. Jackson speechless.
"Alright class, now if you'll all grab a book and turn to page 397 we can get started," Mrs. Jackson said ignoring Elena's last comment. In that very moment I realized that Elena has truly lost herself and that there may not be a single person that will be able to bring her back.
DPOV
BEEP BEEP BEEP. Shit. I'm so fucked! First day of senior year and I'm already late for first period. I'm sure I'll get shit from Mr. Tanner later for this. Just fucking great. I check my phone real quick.
Text from Rose: Hey hottie ;) Ready for Senior year? Ugh. No.
Text from Klaus: Hey bro where the hell are you? Late for first period on the first day..tsk tsk jackass.
Text from Mason: Bro! Where the fuck are you? You know Tanner's already hunting your ass down so get here quickly.
Text from Klaus: WAKE THE FUCK UP ASSHOLE.
Text from Lexi: Damon! You better be up and getting ready. Do I need to call you mother? It's our senior year c'mon man!
I read all my texts before hopping in the shower. Y'know, why didn't Stephen wake me up? Jackass little brother.
*one hour later*
EPOV
First period down, only four more to go. God I can't do this. I need to get out of here and quick, if I have to hear one more person say 'I'm so sorry for your loss' or 'How are you doing since…you know' I might throw myself off a damn bridge. Katherine seems to be doing considerably well, but then again she has Elijah to comfort her and make sure she's okay and Jer…well actually I haven't seen him yet which means he probably out in the stoners lot. Ughh I just need to escape.
"Uhh where are you going? We have History with Tanner next period," Caroline said as we walked out of the classroom.
"Yeah I need some air so I'm just gonna be a little late," I said facing both Bonnie and Caroline.
"But Lenny—"
"I'll see you guys later," I yelled as I started walking towards the nearest exit to this school. Fuck this day, I thought as I walked out of the school building.
DPOV
Finally, I thought as I parked my baby. Man I missed this, I thought as I walked into the school winking at all the hotties watching me walk by. You could say I'm pretty popular being the star quarter back for the MFHS Football team. DING DING DING. And there goes the bell for second period. Why did I show up here again? I thought as I felt a small body run into me then fall straight to the ground.
"Jesus. If you wanted me you could've just asked," I said with my usual cocky smirk that all the ladies like. Damn. She's beautiful wait—she looks so familiar. It can't be Kat because Kat doesn't wear that much make up.
"Ughh please, as if" I heard her say while smirking and offering my hand to help her up.
" I'm Damon. Damon-" I started saying before she cut me off.
"Salvatore. I know," She snapped.
"And your name is?" I asked.
"Elena. Elena Gilbert—look I've gotta go…sorry for th...the run in," She said softly before walking away. Before getting too far away from me I grabbed her arm bringing her back my way.
"It was a nice to meet you Elena. Say," I said proudly, "me, you, and the grill Friday night at 7?"
"Huh?" she snickered, "Not likely, I have plans. Not that I would've other wise. Don't think I don't know guys like you. You're a player Damon. You don't do relationships and I do, although it's not what I'm looking for right now. Besides you're just…not my type."
"Ohh please…I'm everyone's type," I snapped.
"You may be everyone's type physically, but that doesn't mean that you're my type personality wise," She said.
"Well now that we've clarified. I'm still your type on some level. What are we doing Friday night?" I said smiling.
"Wow you really can't take a hint can you? If you really want to know, I am going to my dead parents of three months grave. You on the other hand, will probably be with some whore you met at the grill. It was great talking to you. Bye." She said walking away leaving me there speechless. I like her, I thought while smirking and heading to my second period class.
EPOV
"Stupid asshole Damon Salvatore… 'Ohh please, I'm everyone's type'," I said aloud, mocking him. Why does he have to be so hot? ughh all I want to do is kiss those—Elena Gilbert! Dammit stop thinking about him! He's just another asshole who wants to use you for sex, I thought as I pulled up to the falls and lit the joint I stole from Jeremy's stash this morning. I grabbed my phone and texted Katherine to let her know where I was.
Text to Sis: Hey Kat…I left school, couldn't deal with it. I'll be at the falls smoking some joints if anyone needs me.
Text from Sis: I really wish you wouldn't run away from your problems and smoke them away, but I'm just glad you're okay. I love you. You know that right? You're my best friend and I'm here for you. I just get worried that along the way of losing mom and dad I'll lose you too.
Text to Sis: I know, I'm sorry. I love you too and I promise you'll never ever lose me.
Text from Sis: On a better note, Damon wouldn't stop asking about you today. I think someone has a soon to be new boy toy.
Text to Sis: Ohh please. Damon's nothing but a player. I'm steering clear of guys like him.
Text from Sis: He's actually not that bad…I mean sure he has a couple side hoe's but he'd totes drop them for you. I think you should give him a chance, but from what I heard you turned him down and he's not ready to give up ;)
Text to Sis: Maybe…I guess I'll just have to play a little hard to get for a while ;)
Text from Sis: Good luck…awww Delena! That's your couple name! So cute! I g2g gym UGHH bye love ya!
Text to Sis: You're a freak but I love you anyway!
I sent the last text as I thought about possibly and slowly giving in the eldest Salvatore.
DPOV
"Salvatore," I heard coach Tanner yell as I walked out of the locker room.
"Yes, Mr. Tanner," I said annoyed.
"You were late today. Every time it happens again, you get an extra lap. Got it?" he said as I nodded and he walked away. I then spotted Stephen.
"Hey Steph, what do you know about Elena Gilbert?" I said nonchalantly.
"Uhh well her parents—" He started to say before I cut him off.
"I know about her parents, but what about her Steph? I want to know her, whether she wants me to or not." Damon said.
"Well she dated Matt Donovan for like ever then he dumped her after her parents died because she was never in the mood for sex anymore," He said.
"Asshole," I muttered under my breath.
"And uhh Kat's her twin, Jeremy Gilbert her little brother. Caroline Forbes and Bonnie are her best friends and uhh she's a good person, but really just kind of lost," he explained, "But why do you know or care?" he asked.
"Well Steph, believe it or not I want a steady girl friend and I want her to fulfill that role in my life," I said with confidence.
"Look, she's been through a lot so you better mean what you said. She's not just another whore that you get to play with. She's my friend and if you hurt her I'll kill you…or better yet tell you about my sex life with Finn," He said grinning while my face was filled with nothing but horror and disgust.
"Ohh Jesus, please no," I said laughing. "I promise I wont hurt her, I really like her and I think she's special."
"Well good then," He said as we pulled into our boarding house drive way. "I'm off to bed…I'm exhausted. I'll see ya in the a.m. night bro," he said walking up the stairs to his room.
"Night Steph…ohh and next time if you're up before me wake me up so I'm not late," I yelled. I then heard a "yeah whatever" before walking into my room, throwing some sweats on and watching some Football. As the night went by, I turned everything off and thought about Elena Fucking Gilbert and her beautiful brown eyes. I then thought to myself, Elena Gilbert will be mine.
