chapter one - the longing
My alarm went off I moved my hands around looking for the snooze button. there was a loud crash as my hand hit something and the alarm clock fell on the floor silencing the noise.I shrugged and pulled back quilt and groaned i really didn't want to go. i raided my closet till i found what i was looking for and i threw it down on my bed. looking in the mirror i sighed my hair was a mess i grabbed abrush and tryed to untangles my hair i had pale skin not fair pale with hazel eyes and rreddy brown hair and i was tiny i stood at a pathetic 4ft 7 everyone towered over me. after 10 minutes my hair began to tame and i was able to tie it back. then my phone bleeped it was my friend jessica
Hey hope you have good first day of school text me asap love you babe xx jess :*
I groaned now i had to start a new school great. i got dressed and applied my usual make up and made my way down stairs my mum had left for work but had left me my money on the side with a note working late dinner is on the freezer good luck love you mumxx i balled it up a threw it in the bin and left for school. the walk there wasn't long just boring and best to be avoided. i got in to school just as the bell rung i couldnt be late on my first day how would that look?. I began walking towards the main buliding i got some strange looks and noticed people whispering and pointing i just put my head down and spof hot air ed up hoping to get away form the staring eyes.
as i walked through the man officee a blast of hot air hit me full on in the face. the stern looking women behind the desk glared at me.
"how can i help you " her voice was sharp and brittle
" errrm hi my name is mia parker i start today" my voice was a barley above a whisper she handed me some papers and pointed towards the door i nooded and walked out side i looked at the papers and there was a time table and a map for first lesson i had calculas and i had no idea where it was i looked at the map and saw it was on the other side of the school i walked in what i hoped was the right direction. after walking round in cirles for 5 minutes i finally found my class i took a deep breathe and knocked.
"come in" i heard a voice say i walked in and the whole class stared at me and i could feel my cheek heating up and i looked down as the teacher told the class who i was. he poinnted to a empty desk at the back and i went and sat down. the students gazes follow me i sat down i took my pen and note book out and copied down of the board when i heard some one call my name i turned and a girl with blonde hair almost white and her eyes deep pools of blue. she was smiling and i smiled back.
"hi im elena nice to meet you, do you want to hang around with me i can show you where to go" i nodded her and thanked her. the bell rung out everyone piled out of the door she waited outside and made her way to a large group of people. when she arrived they all noticed me and stared.
"hey guys this is mia she is the new kid" waved towards the group with a shy smile i was greeted with a chorus of heys and hellos. i smiled again and leaned against the nearest locker maybe it wasnt gonna be that bad here. then i heard
" so mia where was you before mystic falls?"
i looked up and saw with out a doubt one of the most gourgoues boy ever. he had light brown hair which was perfectly quiffed and his eyes where deep green and gentle his face was chizeld to perfection and his lips were pulled up in to a smile it took me a moment to realise i was staring.
" oh miami " he nodded and his smile grew.
" nice well im stefan salvatore if you need anything dont hesatate to ask" i smiled and felt the blood rush to my cheeks as he held his hand out for me to shake. i took his hand and it was warm i felt myself blushing agin as i dropped my hand and gaze to the floor. i met everyone there was a blonde boy called matt he was sweet and very good looking, then there was bonnie and caroline they were both tall with tanned skin bonnie had black hair whereas caoline had blonde hair they both looked at me skepticly. then the bell went i got my map and time table out i had musical theatre i sighed.
" so what lesson do you have" i looked up and stefan was leaning against a locker looking down at me there was barely 1 foot between us i blushed.
"errm musical theatre with mrs adams"
" oh i have her aswell do you wanna walk with me " i nooded and felt my self blush again i couldnt believe how many time i had. he hugged elena and gestured for me to walk. A i walked i noticed everyone was staring at me i looked down and tried to ignore them.
" mia watch out" i heard stefans voice i looked up and smashed in to someones chest i lost my balance and could feel my self falling backward, a pair of strong hand grasp my shoulders stopping me from falling over. i looked up and was met by a pair of ice blue eyes. i froze the face the eyes belonged to was breath taking he was gourgeous even next to stefan. his hair was pitch black and covered his head perfectly even though it was slightly ruffled it looked perfect and his lips were pulled in to a very sexy smirk.
" i am so sorry i wasnt looking were i was going" i felt like such an idiot.
" its okay" he removed his hands from my shoulders. Then stefan pulled me behind him and growled.
"calm down little brother she walked in to me " the boy i walked in to was stefans older brother? i guess i could see the slight simularites.
" just stay away from her damon" stefan said in a hostile tone. I touched stefans shoulder and he looked at me his face calmed instantly and he sighed.
" sorry lets get to class " he grabbed my wrist softly and pulled me past damon who winked at me. when we arrived at class mrs adams introduced me to everyone and told me to take a seat next stefan. i sat down and she started to explain how they were doing midsummer nights dream as the school play and she wanted everyone in the class to audtion and if we didnt we would have detention for the rest of the year.i groaned and heard stefan chuckle.
" so take it you dont like shakespeare?" i shook my head
" no i love shakespreare he is so amazing and inspreational it just the whole acting infront of people im not so keen on" he laughed it was musical then i heard the teacher say we was going to be trying some trust exersises she paired everyone up.
" okay james with clarke , grant you're with jones and savlvatore you can be with mia " i turned to him and he smiled slightly. the teacher designated everyone to diffrent places in the large hall and began to shout commands. I took a strand of my hair in my hand and began twisting it round in my fingers when stefan placed his hand over mine and tucked the strand behind my ear i froze and mt heat was beating so fast i could feel it in my ears.
" shall we ?" then i hear miss say that we had to fall back and depend on our partner to catch us. i turned around and stefan had his arms held out i moved closer and turned my back to him and let myself drop and sure enough his arms where there and they wrapped around my waist holding me close to him then mrs adams shouted to switch he let me go and i faced him and bit my lip he was huge compard to me in hieght i just about reached the middle of his chest he could see the hesitantion and smiled.
" if you want we can skip it " i shook my head and got in postion he moved closer and he dropped as i wrapped my arms around his waist i felt his wieght come down and i felt my feet slipping i kneww he could as he tried to stand up but it was to late i lost my footing completely andwe both fell backwards as i hit the floor i was crushed with all of his wieght, it knocked the wind out of me. stefan rolled of me and started laughing i looked at him and couldnt help but and also started laughing we was both in fits of giggles on the floor when mrs adams came over with a stern look shaking her head. when she aproached stefan stood up and held his hand out for me to take he pulled me up and the bell went. i grabbed my bag and made my way to my next class I had english with a mr gill.
I entered the class room and everyone was already seated the teacher lookedd at me and pointed at a empty desk at the back of the room i nodded and made my way i sat down and got my note book out of my bag and i heard the door open and a smooth voice
" sorry im late i got kept behind last lesson" i looked up and there was stefans older brother. david ? daniel? damon that was it damon and then his eyes flashed to mine and he smirked. i felt my cheeks heat up as he walked towards me at that moment i knew he sat in the seat next to me, he sat down and i tried to look at the teacher but i could feel his eyes looking at me.
" sorry to bother you but do you have a pen i could borrow " i looked up and damon was facing me i nodded and pulled a pen from my bag as he took the pen his hand brushed mine and my heart skipped a beat.
"thanks ..." he left of for me to tell him my name
"oh its mia , mia parker " he held out his hand and winked
" well mia im damon salvatore and it is a pleasure to meet your beautiful self " i blushed harder and tried to listen to the teacher but everytime i looked round his ice blue eyes were studying my face and when he saw me looking he just winked and smirked. the teacher stopped talking and told us to copy the notes damon took this as a chance to quiz me.
" so how come you moved ?" i looked up and smiled weakly.
" my parents got a job transfer and just couldnt say no " i made sure my tone was sarcastic and he chuckled
" you know i could give you a tour of mysic falls its not as boring as it looks so what do you say?" i hesatated and remembered how hostile stefan was to him but i did need someone to show me around.
" umm sure that would be great thanks" he smiled and said
"okay meet me in the parking lot after school and we can start" just then the bell went and he was up and out of the door before anyone who could say anything. i walked outside and elena was standing against the wall smiling.
" hi i thought id meet you and show you where the cafatirea is" i smilled back at her
"aww thanks elena " she took my wrist and began to pull me through the crowd of people. when we arrived everyone was already sitting down in deep conversation but when they saw me approach there attention was turned to me. i smiled shyly
"hey everyone so what you talking about?" a strongly build blond boy with dark eyes smiled warmly
"oh just about going to see a movie this weekend you should come, im matt by the way" he held out his hand and i took it he squeezed my hand before letting go. i took a seat nest to bonnie she was excited because now i was here she wasn't the smallest anymore everyone laughed her comment which made her face glow a bright red. i smiled sypatheticly but she had a point i was the smallest here proberly the smallest in the school.
After last lesson i made my way to the car park to meet damon i had to admit i was a bit nervous he was so gorgeous and tall and i could tell most of the girls in the school where after him as i walked in to the car park i saw him instantly he was leaning against a black ferrarri and when he saw me he smirked and stood up staight. i walked over to him and his eyes looked me over from head to toe and felt uneasy maybe this was a bad idea. when i apprached him he looked down at me and smiled brightly.
" you ready to go tesoro theres a lot for you to see" i nodded and wondered what tesoro ment. he held open the car door for me and i slid in. when he got in i pulled my seat belt over myself and i swear he laughed.
" so where are you taking me ?" i asked quitely.
" to one of my favorite places in mystic falls" i nodded and stared out the wiindow it just occured to me that i was in a car with a total stranger and yet i felt comfatable. he turned the engine off and got out of the car before i had a chance to take my seatbelt off my door was open and damon had his hand held towards me. i took it without thnking and he led me through the forest.
