Mystic Falls High
Wednesday

Mr Tanner pinched the bridge of his nose before entering the gym. He supposed every teacher had to teach sex education at some point, however that didn't make it any easier. Tanner was positive at least half of the students in his class had lost their virginity already anyways. A lot of what he was about to say would be falling on dead ears. He opened the door and shouted loudly at the gathering of students, who were throwing around a basketball and generally being unnecessarily boisterous. They were sitting on the benches facing a large portable whiteboard. The class gradually quietened and they all sat in anticipation, waiting to see how one of their most hated teachers would handle the topic. Many were cringing already and he hadn't even started yet.

Elena Gilbert sat next to Stefan Salvatore uncomfortably as they, along with the rest of the class, was forced to endure sex education taught by Mr Tanner. Sure, there was something very satisfying about seeing perhaps the most despised teacher in school squirm in embarrassment from having to teach a group of largely sexually active teenagers about abstinence - but it was also extremely awkward. Of course many students tried to relieve the awkwardness by making obvious crude comments at first, but typically Tanner immediately issued detentions to anyone who spoke "out of line", as he put it.

"Don't have sex," Mr Tanner said for what seemed like the hundredth time, "because you will get pregnant, and die."

"Obviously not; I'm not pregnant or dead," Elena whispered out of the corner of her mouth to Stefan. Stefan smirked as he held back a laugh and winked at his girlfriend.

"Am I interrupting, Miss Gilbert?" Tanner's voice quipped at her. Elena looked up in embarrassment, her doe-brown eyes making her look very much like a deer caught in headlights. She shook her head ashamedly. "Would you care to enlighten what's so important that you had to ignore my teachings with the rest of us?"

It took all of Stefan's determination not to get up and punch the guy square in the face. What kind of an ass gets kicks out of embarrassing kids?

"Um…I'd rather not, sir," Elena said quietly.

"Then I suggest you keep quiet," Mr Tanner replied condescendingly.

When Tanner finally looked away from Elena she rolled her eyes. God she hated that man. She looked over at one of her best friends, Bonnie Bennett, who she knew hated Tanner just as much as herself.

Naturally Bonnie sensed Elena's gaze, caught her eye, and smiled back with as much enthusiasm as she could muster. Bonnie was not in the best of moods. With Christmas looming she wasn't sure whether her Dad would be home or away and she wasn't looking forward to spending another Christmas alone again. To make matters worse, Christmas at school meant only one thing: candy cane gram season. It was all good fun but Bonnie thought the whole thing was absolutely ridiculous.

Well…truthfully she was bitter. As petty as it seemed, she wouldn't be able to help but feel extremely mortified if she didn't get at least one gram. You could bet your life that Elena and Caroline were going to get at least one or two. She was relying on Jeremy to send her a candy cane to salvage what was left of her slowly depleting social status but of course that relationship abruptly ended. 'When he cheated on me with that emo whore, Anna – in the toilets, of all places!' she thought, still seething about the whole thing.

The whole class was knew at some point Mr Saltzman was going to come waltzing in, dressed in a Santa Claus costume, handing out annual candy cane grams from secret – or not so secret admirers. Bonnie was a little embarrassed for Alaric, but he seemed to enjoy it – probably because it got him out of teaching a few lessons.

Everyone continued to sit idly, trying to phase out whatever Tanner was still ranting on about. Finally, saving them from their discomfort, Alaric opened the classroom door with a loud 'Ho ho ho!'

"Candy cane grams!" he announced, enthusiastically as always.

"OK, hurry up," Mr Tanner waved a defeated hand at him, sat down on a bench and shamelessly allowed himself to be entertained by the superficial show, relieved to have a break from teaching such an awkward subject.

"Alright...uh," Alaric took out the first gram, squinting at the name on the tag, "Stefan Salvatore, one for you," he passed the candy cane to Stefan who made googoo eyes at Elena. Alaric took out another three candy canes, "Caroline Forbes, three for you…"

Bonnie just stopped herself from rolling her eyes by the skin of her teeth. Of course. Everyone in the room knew who those were off straight away: Tyler and Matt. The third was probably from Klaus, who had finshed school a couple years back but Bonnie supposed he had enough influence in Mystic Falls to be able to slip a gram in for the girl he fancied. Lucky Caroline had some of the hottest guys in town chasing after her… but of course why wouldn't she? Head of the cheerleading squad, Miss Mystic Falls…everyone still loved her since she was a nice person but it was kinda hard to not be envious of the girl.

"Glen Coco?" Alaric asked the room. A boy in front of Caroline raised his hand nonchalantly and Alaric threw a few canes at him, "four for you Glen Coco! You go Glen Coco! And…Elena Gilbert, one for you," Alaric handed Elena her candy cane which was obviously off Stefan and she squealed quietly. Alaric was now standing next to Bonnie, who sat up slightly and leant over to try and read the names on the list.

"And one for Bonnie Bennett."

Bonnie nearly fell out of her seat in shock. What? She took the candy cane from Alaric - Mr Saltzman's - proffered hand tentatively, a wave of new emotions bubbling in her gut. Glee, relief, flattery…curiosity. Who on earth had sent her the gram?

"And none for Rebekah Mikaelson, bye."

Bonnie turned over the label on the gram eagerly as Alaric left the gym promptly and Mr Tanner reluctantly stood to resume teaching.

I know I don't attend MFH but being buddies with Ric has its perks… Happy Christmas, Judgey.

D.S. x

Bonnie's eyes bugged at the neat slanted handwriting. Damon-effing-SALVATORE had sent her a candy cane gram. Older danger guy Damon. What the…? Bonnie had to stop herself from laughing in disbelief at the paper. She allowed herself to be happy for all of thirty seconds before reprimanding her mind back into reality. 'Damon likes Elena.' she reminded herself, shaking her head.

"Seriously, I can't believe I didn't get a gram."

Bonnie turned slightly to look in the direction the arrogant voice had come from. She wasn't surprised to see it was Kol. She rolled her eyes as he noticed her looking at him and he winked. Admittedly, she was a little surprised that he didn't get at least one gram. He was pretty darn good looking (kinda like everyone else in town). She'd never let him know she thought that though – not that he didn't know it already. Kol was too confident for his own good.

"So why didn't you send me a gram Bonnie?" he asked her with a knowing smile.

"You didn't send me one," she pointed out.

Kol opened his mouth to reply with something cheeky no doubt but he was interrupted by the ever persistent Mr Tanner. "Mr Mikaelson, can you tell me what I just said?"

If looks could kill Tanner would be out cold on the floor with the glare Kol shot at him.

"No? I thought not," Tanner said, clearing his throat.

The class sat in uncomfortable silence for the remainder of the lesson until the merciful bell finally rang for lunch. Bonnie slung her bag over her shoulder and made her way to the exit of the gym with the rest of the class.

"Do you want me to send you a gram?" a suggestive voice asked.

Bonnie jumped; she hadn't noticed Kol sneak up beside her. He was standing quite close. Perhaps a little too close.

"You can do whatever you want, Kol," she said indifferently.

"Can I?" he winked.

Dammit. She had not meant it to sound like that. But of course Kol could turn anything into an innuendo.

"Um…"

Kol grinned happily as he watched her squirm and her cheeks tint. Better put the girl out of her misery. "Don't worry, sweetheart, I'm joking," he laughed.

They parted ways as they reached the cafeteria to sit at their designated tables. Bonnie sat down cheerfully next to Elena, her mood having been brightened by her curious gram.

"So who was it off?" Elena asked.

Oh. This could be awkward.

Bonnie hesitated before deciding to tell her friend the truth. She knew Elena loved Stefan but you had to be an idiot to not notice something was going on between the brunette and the elder Salvatore. "Um…Damon."

Elena frowned, "Huh. That's weird."

"I know," Bonnie agreed quickly.

"I mean, because he doesn't go to school – I wasn't saying he was out of your league or anything," Elena added hastily.

Bonnie nodded compliantly, hoping she hadn't gotten Damon into trouble. She was thankful when she saw her blonde best friend approaching to relieve the tension.

Caroline made her way over to Elena and Bonnie who were sitting at their table in the middle of Mystic Falls High's cafeteria. She was about to lower her tray to the table when a scowl from Elena made her back away.

"What are you doing, Caroline?" Elena asked, looking the confused blonde up and down as if she had two heads.

"What?" Caroline questioned.

"It's Wednesday…we wear pink on Wednesdays…" Elena said slowly, looking Caroline's attire up and down. She was wearing jeans and a blue shirt.

"So?" Caroline laughed, not understanding why her best friend was being so uptight.

"You can't sit with us," Elena deadpanned.

Caroline's eyebrows shot up in surprise, "What? Come on Lena, those rules aren't real."

"Uh, yeah they are, Care."

"Well, where am I supposed to sit?" Caroline asked, the annoyance in her tone obvious.

"Not our problem," Elena smiled briefly and then continued to tuck into her salad. Caroline huffed in disbelief, and turned her attention to Bonnie.

Bonnie ducked her head in shame. Caroline's face blatantly read, "Back me up, bitch!"

Bonnie took a deep breath, "I think we should just let her sit down, Elena."

Elena looked from one best friend to the other before finally caving. "Fine, fine, whatever. I guess they didn't count when I wore jeans on Friday either."

Caroline smiled in victory and set herself opposite from Bonnie with an appreciative smile.

"So, Caroline," Bonnie began with a mischievous smile, "what are you going to do with three candy cane grams?"

Caroline lifted a hand to her forehead and feigned swooning to which Elena and Bonnie burst out in giggles.

"It's weird how both Klaus and Damon sent grams even though they don't go here…" Elena speculated.

"Damon, yes. Klaus, not so much." Caroline said.

"Why no to Klaus?" Bonnie quipped defensively.

Caroline bit a smile back.

Elena and Bonnie raised their eyebrows. "Caroline?" they both asked simultaneously.

"I may have led Klaus on a little bit…" Caroline distracted herself by playing with the wrapper her sandwich had come in. Bonnie and Elena were both poised over the table gagging for her to elaborate. "I…slept with him."

"YOU WHAT?" they shrieked. Several people on tables around them turned their heads.

"Shhh!" Caroline hissed.

Bonnie stared at her friend, jaw hanging. "What the-"

"Don't judge, please, Bonnie. It just happened, okay?"

"You just happened to cheat on Tyler?"

Bonnie watched a wounded expression flash over Caroline's face. "I'd like to see you resist Klaus' charms," she sniffed.

Bonnie snorted. "Easy."

Caroline raised her eyebrows, "really, wanna bet?"

"Caroline, he's like the biggest badass in town." Some girls found that attractive – Bonnie didn't.

"The hottest, richest, badass in town," Caroline winked.

Bonnie caved and laughed, "You are unbelievable!" she chuckled.

"Speaking of sleeping with people…" Elena paused. "Have you done the dirty deed yet, Bon?"

Bonnie pouted. "Nope. Virgin and proud!"

"Yeah, right," Caroline laughed. "Just admit it, Bonnie, you want to lose it. Bad."

"No I don't!" she protested, "I have class!"

Both Caroline and Elena gaped.

"Ouch, Bon," Elena mumbled.

"You know I didn't mean it like that."

"It's cool," Caroline smiled sarcastically, "you'll lose it soon enough and then you'll be just as cheap as the rest of us."

Caroline and Elena promptly left the table. Bonnie sighed and let her head fall into her hands. Sometimes she had a bad case of foot in mouth. Think before you speak, Bon she cursed herself.

"What's up, Bonnie?" she heard a British accent ask her. She looked up to see Kol. Again. Does the guy never get lost? When she didn't reply Kol took the liberty of inviting himself to sit at the table with her. Bonnie almost laughed at his cheeky charm. "Come on, darling."

"You really don't want to know," she half-laughed.

"Try me," he said playfully.

She sighed. "I'm a virgin; my friends aren't; I accidentally inadvertently called them easy." Ha, take that!

Kol's face went blank and he leaned back uncomfortably. "Oookaaay…I'm not really an expert in that field."

Bonnie flashed a sardonic smile. "Thought not."

"I can help you with your virgin problem though," Kol grinned, his eyebrows dancing.

Bonnie raised an eyebrow at him, unimpressed. "If you're trying to charm me it's not working."

"Yes, I hear my brother's much better than me in that department."

Bonnie's eyes bugged. "You were listening to that? Rude!"

"Darling, you girls weren't exactly speaking quietly."

"Still…" she murmured.

"Seriously though…do you want to…go out with me sometime?" Kol asked slowly, as if he were dealing with a rattlesnake.

Jeez, he's persistent isn't he?

Bonnie was about to turn him down but then she thought better of it. Why not? "Uh…sure," she smiled.

Kol blinked. Well, that was a lot easier than he thought it was going to be. "Great," he grinned. "What's your number?"

They swapped numbers and stood from the table.

"Thanks. See you Friday night, Bonnie…" he grinned, looking her none-too-subtly up and down, drinking in her figure, before turning to leave.

Bonnie gulped as she watched Kol leave the cafeteria. She was sure she'd come to regret this.


Thanks for reading! Hope you liked it. I couldn't help but put a reference to the infamous Glen Coco in there ;D I tried to mix up a few of my favourite scences from Mean Girls into this chapter without it being too hectic :) Review your favourite parts of the movie and I could write them in at some point if I carry this on? But please review anyways, I'd like to know if people liked my wacky idea :) I know Elena seems a little bit Katherine-ish cos she's being mean but...since Elena is like the main girl in TVD I decided to sorta channel her as Regina so I had to make her at least a little bit of a bitch lol. I know it's kinda randomish, but it just came to me and I wanted to get it down. I don't have a Beta so sorry if there were mistakes. xxx
