Hey, this the first story I publish here and my first TVD fanfic. I hope you guys like it and I already sorry about misspelling thought I checked it five times. But I have dyslexia so don't be too mad! Make love and war.


Caroline Forbes hated idleness. She loved having full schedule and being the one in charge. That's why she loved school. She was a part of most of the clubs in there and did most of the event organizing. So when everyone else waited to school to end and summer to begin, she did not.

She had divorced parents which meant that her summer plans didn't include happy family barbecue's or picnic's. Her father had left her mother for another man and moved to a different city. After that her mother had become a workaholic. Her mother was the sheriff of Mystic falls and had began working overtime and more than required. And even thought Caroline understood her she would've wanted to do at least something on her summer holidays.

She couldn't go visit her dad since she knew her mom was still upset about the fact that he had left her for another man after many years of being married to each other. So she was bound to her house and to Mystic Falls.

Caroline's best friends Elena and Bonnie were home only a couple of weeks in the summer. Elena travelled with her family across the country and Bonnie went to see her mom and that side of her family. So that left Caroline all alone in Mystic falls. Of course she had lots of other friends who she had spent time with but without her best friends she felt like she was missing a part of herself.

The first weeks had gone by fast and Caroline had almost forgotten she was missing her best friends. But as there was only two weeks left till school started and her friends would finally return to Mystic falls she was bored to death. She had done everything that was possible to do in the small town of Mystic Falls and for the first time she realized that it really was a small town. Usually she had so much to do that she had never even thought about what could be done out side of school. And unfortunately, there wasn't much.

This was what Caroline was thinking when she was yet again lying in her backyard sunbathing since there was nothing else to do. She had cleaned the house under ten minutes and after that mowed the lawn and watered the plants. And this had taken under an hour. Caroline sighted loudly and closed her eyes.

She could call her mother and ask if she could come and pick her up to the station and so Caroline could do some light paperwork or just anything to keep her occupied. But that required speaking to her mother and that thought didn't make Caroline jump with excitement. It just made think something else to do so she wouldn't have to resort to that. So instead of that she started to think about the next school year. What would she wear in the first day and the jealous look on Elena's face when she would see her. Caroline had succeeded to loose a few pounds during summer and looked now even more of an model than last year.

Deep inside of her Caroline knew that Elena would only be happy for her but that was the reason why Caroline felt like she needed to compete with Elena. The fact that Elena wouldn't feel even a little bit jealous for Caroline's perfect figure or anything that Caroline had, made her mad. She wanted Elena to want her life as much as she wanted to have Elena's.

Caroline startled from her thoughts when she heard a trucks reverse sound coming from the house next door. It had been empty for a while when the last residents had just suddenly moved in the darkness of the night and no one hadn't heard of them ever since. Caroline took the sunglasses off and lifted herself so she could see from the crack in the fence if there actually was a moving-truck next-door. Just as she looked she saw a huge truck being pulled into the driveway. And then she heard a voice.

"Stop you moron or you'll go through the wall!" A woman said with a strong British accent. That woke Caroline's attention. She stood up and started to sneak closer to the fence. She forgot that she was in her bikinis and that she wasn't wearing makeup. She wanted to see the new neighbors that talked with an British accent.

The fence wasn't that tall and standing up Caroline could easily see over it. So that's why she was crouching as she moved towards the fence. As she got to the crack she could see the driveway clearly as well as the front-yard and little bit of the backyard. A woman was trying to give directions to the truck driver. There was a blond probably Caroline's aged girl standing in the porch and next to him two boys who where little older. They all look bored and were talking but Caroline couldn't hear them well enough to say about what. She kept spying on them with out noticing that she had missed one family member. Suddenly some was standing right in front of her on the other-side of fence.

"May I ask what are you doing?" Said a lovely voice with a British accent. Caroline looked up and saw a quite handsome guy staring down at her. She smiled nervously and stood up.

"Hi! I'm Caroline. Forbes. I live right here and I'm not stalking I just heard noises and since I hadn't heard that the house was sold I wanted to make sure that nobody wasn't taking advantage the fact that the house was empty. My mom's the sheriff so she would be pissed." Said Caroline rabidly, looking a little bit scared at the stranger. Caroline was sure he would most likely think she was a creeper and never speak to her again or start talking about how rude it was that she was peeking through the crevice in the fence, since he, deducting from his accent, was British. But for Caroline's surprise he started to laugh.

"You really are something aren't you?" He said and smiled showing his perfect white teeth. Caroline was stunned. She tried to understand what he meant by that. While she was trying to figure it out he turned around and started to head towards the porch where the others were sitting.

"Hey!" Caroline shouted hastily before even realizing that she had open her mouth. The guy turned around as if he couldn't believe that she had just shouted after him. Like it was normal to just leave without even introducing themselves.

"Yes?" He said with interested tone.

"You didn't mention your name. And that was kind of rude since I told my own." Caroline said trying to hold the confidence in her voice. A smirk spread across the guy's beautiful face. Suddenly he was really close to her and staring right into her eyes. She couldn't look away even though her gut told her to do so.

"You'll find out soon enough." He whispered.

Caroline opened her eyes but she couldn't remember when she had closed them. She had the strangest feeling but she couldn't really tell what it was or where it had came from. She just had this feeling inside of her like she should maybe know something or like she had forgotten something that was never there in the first place. Like she had forgotten emptiness.

Caroline let out a small scream when the phone started ringing in the house. Yet when she heard it she felt like it had been ringing for a while though she knew it was impossible. She stood up quickly and ran inside to answer the phone. She made it just in time.

"Hello?" She asked with little bit of hesitation.

"Caroline? I've been calling and I was just starting to worry if something was wrong." Caroline heard her mom say with relief. Strange. Why was she relieved and what did she mean she had been calling?

"No I just fell a sleep in the sun. What's the emergency?" Caroline asked with a perky voice. Her mom usually never called her.

"Oh... Caroline... It's not good news." Her mother replied with sad voice. That got Caroline.

"Mom... What is it?"

"It's Elena." Her mom answered. That surprised and freaked Caroline at the same time.

"What about Elena, mom?" Caroline asked now feeling a little bit of scared.

"She has been in a car accident. She and her family drove of the wicker bridge... They've taken her to the hospital as well as her brother and it seems like they're going to be alright..." Her mom said and Caroline felt a relief but she knew something worse was yet to come..

"I think you should call Bonnie and Matt and come to the hospital as soon as possible... She's going to need her friends..." Her mother said with a voice that told so much. Caroline mumbled something in the phone before ending the call. As she put down the phone she felt a shiver go threw her body. Something had just happened. And then she felt a tear going down her face. She let it fall and finally drop before she wiped her cheek. Then she picked up the phone and dialed Bonnie's number. She didn't know what to say. Elena's parents were dead.

"Hello." Caroline heard Bonnie's mom answer. Caroline sighed and asked Bonnie on the phone. It took a couple of seconds before Bonnie answered.

"Caroline?" Bonnie asked with a worried tone – almost like she already knew.

"I..." Caroline started but she just didn't know how to end the sentence.

"What's wrong?" Bonnie called out now clearly a little upset.

"Elena's parents are dead." Caroline finally let out.

There was a moment of silence.

"What?" Caroline heard from the other-side of the phone. She could tell that Bonnie was about to cry.

"Elena and Jeremy are in the hospital. They were in a car accident. You should come as soon as you can. Elena needs us." Caroline said and she was shocked how calm her voice sounded. Then she heard Bonnie starting to cry.

"Oh my god. This can't be happening." Bonnie cried. Caroline knew that she should've cried as well but she just felt calm and numb. This was too surreal.

"I've gotta call Matt now. Maybe he can come and pick me up. We'll call you from the hospital." Caroline hanged up the call and started to dial another number. Why am I doing this? she asked herself though she already knew the answer. Because that was what everyone expected her to do.
