In this story, all of the vampires are like the vampires from the Vampire Diaries except very few have mild powers like from Twilight but the mind control and vervain etc. from the Vampire Diaries are still in this story. It takes place a little before the last Vampire Diaries show. Bella has green eyes and long, dark brown hair to her pelvic bones and she doesnt act like Kristen Stewart portrays her, which is twitchy and shit. I am a huge Kristew Stewart fan so please dont bash me for not liking her as Bella. :)
Anywho, I hope all of you enjoy and if you are confused with anything from the story, please tell me and I will explain.

CHAPTER 1
It was too depressing back in Forks. Everything reminded me of him. And by him, I mean my ex boyfriend, Edward Cullen. I could have swore that it was fate running into another vampire while I was pretending to be normal like I always had. We smelled each other as we walked by and immediately knew that the other was also a vampire. We clicked and soon started dating-but that was all in the past. I need to get out of my rut and continue on with the long life that is ahead of me. I figured I would continue until I didn't have to anymore. Until I truly found my fate.
Sooo, that is why I am heading back to my home town of Mystic Falls, Virginia. I had lived there before I was turned so I knew much history of the place and most all of the people in that small town always seemed to be nice people. I still had my parents old property, the house that I grew up in, because I made sure to pay the taxes every year so I could keep it. It was the one and only thing I still had from the human life I once lived as well as some smaller things.
As I drove past the, Welcome to Mystic Falls, sign I immediately smiled,, remembering right away all of the trees and views. I knew every single detail of this town, but then again I haven't been back here for a good 30 years so I'm sure things have changed.
Sure enough, there was some new buildings and sights but it wasn't so much that the town was unrecognizable. It was still home.
I entered the Swan residence and parked my 2010 Charger in the rock filled driveway. The house was just the same except for the broken attic window on the third story which I guess was the doing of some little snot in town.
"Damn humans." I mumbled under my breath as I took the keys out of the ignition and made my way up to the front door. The door squeaked when I opened and I realized it needed some fixing up. There was cobwebs every where but I expected that. I had fixed the faucets to turn on twice every day and drip during the winters so the pipes wouldn't freeze or stop on me. Same with the central air and heat so bugs wouldn't make their homes inside of the vents.
I set my bags in the foyer on the dark cherry hardwood floors and shut the door with my foot. I opened up all of the thick, long burgundy curtains and let some light in. I could see all of the little dust particles floating in the light and new I should start cleaning immediately.
So I did, I washed all of the sheets and dusted every inch of the house then went to the Lowes and bought some hardwood floors and a window to replace the hardwood floors in the attic where the water from the hole in the window had rotted it. Then I replaced the window and everything was finished and clean. The house is a naturally dark house and has a Playboy Mansion feel with the tall wooden bookshelves and furniture. The curtains were all dark and fell to the floor but in my opinion, the grand fireplace in the living room really lightened it up giving it a homey feel. And of course their was the one thing that all vampires have in their home; an alcohol tableā¦or table's or simply a bar.
I forgot how much I missed it here as I arrived at the Mystic Grill. It was just as I had remembered it except modeled to belong in the decade. I sat at the bar and ordered the usual, 6 shots of, Spirytus Rektyfikowany, probably one of the strongest drinks you can get.
"That's a pretty strong drink." A kid commented from beside me. He had dark brown eyes and the same color hair as his eyes. He was human and I knew because of how strongly he smelt.
"And, that isn't." I responded, looking down at his glass of soda.
"I'm not 21 yet so.." He informed me.
"I hate that." I told him referring to how he didn't finish the sentence.
"What ?" He asked, confused.
"How people say, 'So', and leaves it at that as if that's a proper way to end a sentence." I told him, throwing my head back to drink the first shot then two others. It burned so good going down and my face winced as it made its way down my esophagus.
"Sorry." He apologized over the music, smiling. I shook my head to say it was okay.
"I first had this drink in Poland. The name, Spirytus Rektyfikowany , means rectified spirit. It's a perfect name to call it." I chuckled as I started to feel it a little. I had been drinking for some time now so I knew to even feel ditzy I would have to have around 6 shots.
"You've been to Poland ?" He asked intrigued. Most people in this small town are about people who have traveled even if it was to New York City.
"My Parents had a different way of living." I sort of lied. In a way, we did have a different way of living because then, there was no TV or cell phones or Twinkies etc.
"I'm Jeremy by the way. Jeremy Gilbert." He introduced himself extending his hand.
"And I'm Bella. Bella Swan." I said, taking his hand in mine. I took a breath when I touched him. Not because his hands were cold or anything but because I saw Katherine Pierce. I hadn't seen that face in a long time and lets just say we hadn't left on the best terms.
"So I haven't seen you around here before. Are you visiting or.." He held the, or, signaling me to explain. I rolled my eyes to myself as he didn't finish the sentence again.
"Yeah, I just moved into the old Swan residence.
"The Swan residence ? That place has been abandoned for decades now."
"Its been passed down from generation to generation and I finally got it in my name so I figured I would actually make the best out of it and live in it." I shrugged.
"So you have any family here ?" He asked as I took two other shots.
"No, I'm going to be going to, Mystic Falls Community College while my parents continue to travel." I said, sort of lying again.
"Oh, well it's a great town here." He promised. I nodded my head looked behind me because I recognized a familiar voice. The scent was off though.
I turned around quickly stared at my last shot shocked.
"Are you okay ? You like you just saw a ghost." Jeremy asked looking at where I had just looked.
"I'm fine, I thought I saw something that shouldn't be there." I told him, taking my last shot and standing up to go see the familiar face of Katherine Pierce.
I hope you guys liked it !
Tell me what you think so far.
