Elena POV
Hello, my name is Elena Gilbert. I am a senior at Mystic Falls High School, which is located in a very small town. I am adopted. My parents died in a car crash and I was the only one who survived. My Aunt Jenna now takes care of me and my younger brother Jeremy. I have two best friends named Bonnie and Caroline. We do everything together. They were the ones who helped me through my parents dying and getting told I was adopted. But this is not what this story is about. Let's just say, it all started in the beginning of my first senior year…
I thought it was going to be any other year. Caroline and I were going to fight on who was going to win Prom Queen, while Bonnie practiced trying to talk to boys. But I knew something was going down as soon as walked in the front door. Stefan Salvatore… The guy was nothing but new meat at first. He had green eyes, black hair, sunglasses in his hands, jeans, and a green shirt under his black jacket. He looked like a real badass. Every girl went gaga over him in a minute. I knew one thing, he had to be mine.
"Look at him, I could just eat him up!" I smiled.
"Knowing most boys dressed like that, it's probably just some wanna-be," chimed in Caroline. Here's the thing about Caroline, she just knows guys. She's been dating the linebacker for the school football team for 2 years. They are the face of the perfect couple. But in reality, I wanted that too. I guy that was a totally badass but would do anything for me; and wasn't running away at every relationship that was getting serious.
"You're probably right," I sighed. "Just wish I had a relationship like yours. Perfect."
"Well," smiled Bonnie, "Tyler is cute and the fact that Caroline was wrong about him, makes the relationship work."
"You got that right!" laughed Caroline.
We all laughed with her.
"Hey, Care," said Tyler walking up to us. He kissed her on the cheek and put his arms around her.
"Better leave you lovebirds alone or else we might want to steal him," I giggled.
"Have you guys met him yet?" asked Tyler.
"Who?" returned Bonnie.
"Stefan Salvatore, the guy you were gawking at a couple minutes ago. Turns out that he is the nephew of Zack Salvatore, the one who owns the nice house by the old Salvatore Mansion. Stefan is the only living person living related to the Salvatore's. Well him and is brother Damon. But he's older than Stefan. Won't be seeing him much."
"Thanks for the info Ty," I smiled. Now I just have to meet these brothers. But something about Stefan makes me double guess him. "I'll catch you guys later."
As I turned around, I ran into someone. All my books fell out of my hands and onto the floor. He helped me pick them up, murmuring back a sorry. Our fingers grazed each other, and I got a weird feeling in them. I shook it off and stood up, trying to get a good look at him. He looked like Stefan but just a tad older, so I guessed he was Damon.
"I'm really, sorry," I blushed. "I'm usually not that clumsy. You're Damon Salvatore, right?"
"Glad to know that people know our names already. Makes communicating a little better," he smirked.
Man was he hot. He just had something about him that screamed dangerous, but trustworthy.
"May I have the pleasure of knowing your name?" He smiled. He grabbed my hand a kissed it.
"Elena. Elena Gilbert."
"Well it is nice to meet you, but I am afraid I am looking for my brother. Have you seen him?"
"Yeah, he's just over there." I pointed to the registration office where he was still talking to the secretary, Mrs. Weathers.
"Thank you."
He winked at me and walked away. My friends surrounded me in an instant, demanding to know everything. I told them what happened, the shocked at each small event. I didn't mention the tingling feel that I got when I touched him, but they got the basic idea that I liked him. My friends and I have one basic rule, if one of use likes someone, he is off limits. I knew that but something told me that Bonnie had eyes for him too.
"I will have him, don't you worry."
