I looked out the window as the train sped past the scenery. Thick deep green trees were on either side of us. It felt like I was trapped. I looked down at my diary deciding to write for the first time since the accident.

Trapped. That's just how I've been feeling these past couples of months. My dad's been overbearing and nosy. Ever since mom died he's always talking about how I should go see a counselor or some shit instead of use alcohol as my escape. But the way I see it is I'm just having a good time. It's not like I'm addicted or whatever. It's just nice to feel…something other than loss and pain.

Ever since she died I just feel numb, totally and utterly numb. I didn't cry when I found out she died, nor did I cry at the funeral. I just felt helpless, like I was standing by watching but I wasn't really there. I felt like a stranger standing there, at my own mother's funeral. It wasn't right it shouldn't have happened, and it was all my fault. I couldn't do a damn thing about it.

The worst part was that I could feel them. I could feel all of their sorrow and despair of losing a loved one. It was as if my own feelings were amplified by a thousand, and I just wanted to scream it hurt so much.

I've always been able to feel what people are feeling. Just standing by them it's not very strong I just get an idea. But if I touch them, I feel everything they do, but it's amplified. If they're angry, I'm furious. If they're upset, I'm in despair. If they're happy, I'm ecstatic. And it scares me. No one else has these feelings or premonitions. No one is here to help me through all of this. No one truly understands me.

Hello my lovely readers!

So this is just a story that I thought up while in the shower. I've been wanting to do a TVD fanfic for a REALLY long time now! So I just grabbed my computer sat down and started writing. Keep in mind this is just the intro that's why it's so short. Well I hope you like it so far and there's more to come so don't forget to review. It will only take but 10 seconds. Also later when I give you more of a background feel free to bounce ideas off of me cause I'm not really sure where I'm going with this story. (: Alrighty kids stay safe!

Much love,
