Faith's POV

It was a crisp, cool morning in the little town outside of Mystic Falls where I lived. I was lying on my bed, fully clothed, on my laptop. "FAAAAITH!" My mom yelled from the bottom of the stairs. I got up and walked to the staircase. "Yes?" I asked. "Do you think you could tend to the garden. It's kind of hard with being pregnant and all." She answered. "Yeah, I could do that." I said as I walked back to my room and shut down my laptop. I walked downstairs and my mom passed me a pair of gardening gloves. "Thanks mom." I smiled as I walked out the door. Outside there was 4 containers of plants to put in the ground. I went to work immediatly making holes in the ground. Finally I had made a dozen holes to fit the tiny plants in. They had little white leaves growing on them. After that I put them in the ground I turned around and threw the gloves in the wheelbarrel. As I went to turn back to the house, I gasped. Infront of me was a black haired boy. Maybe 20 or 21, I couldn't tell. "H-h-i..." I whispered as I gluped. "Why hello there." He said back. "A-are you looking for my mom?" I asked. "No. For I don't know your mom, but I came to see what wonderful flowers you were planting." He answered as he leaned down to my face. Right before he moved farther down he looked into my eyes and said, "You won't feel any pain." I just stood there while he bite my neck. It felt like someone was scalding me with a hot curling iron. But I was smart enough to pretend I didn't feel any pain. My mind told me to stay. As he pulled away he put both arms around my back. "Now forget this happened." He whispered by my ear. But I didn't forget anything. I just stared into his bluey green eyes. "Now sleep." He commanded. Very slowly I closed my eyes and he put me on the ground. I layed there and kept my eyes closed incase he was still there. After a few minutes I passed out.

I woke up an hour later. My mind still racing from what happened about an hour ago. I checked my neck for any bite mark but there was nothing. Who tries to bite a girl anyway? A cannibal? A zombie? I had no clue. But I always had weird dreams so this was normal for me. I grabbed the label of the flowers. 'Vervain.' It read. "What the hell is vervain?" I whispered to myself. I grabbed my gardening gloves and went inside the house. "Did you get everything done?" My mom asked when I walked in the door. "Umm yeah... Hey I'm going to go in the pool for awhile." I answered as I ran up the stairs. I quickly changed and shook my hair out. "Faaith! Someone is here for you!" My mom yelled from downstairs. I grabbed a towel and ran downstairs. "Hi Elena!" I squealed as I hugged her. Beside her was Matt Donovan and a boy I never met. "Faith. This is Stefan." She annouced with a huge smile. I put my hand out for Stefan to shake, but instead he bends down and kisses it. "Such a gentleman." I laugh with a huge grin on my face. "Well. Are you guys going to stand there or are you going to come in the pool with me?" I asked excitedly. "Yeah lets go boys. Why do you think we brought our bathing suits for nothing!" She replied smiling. Elena came out back with me and the boys changed inside. Elena toke off her first layer of clothes. Underneath she was wearing a black bikini with a flower design on it. "So are you dating Stefan?" I asked Elena as I swished my feet back and forth in the water. "I guess. We kissed a few times." Elena answered. " OK! Time to go in the pool!' Matt yelled as he picked me up bridal style and jumped in the pool with me in his arms. My pool was about 7 feet deep and I hit the bottom hard. Matt then got out of the pool but my bikini was stuck on something. I tried to yell but my lungs filled with water and my eyes slowly started to close.

Damon's POV

I was feeling quite full from my meal awhile ago. Now I was tracking Elena, Stefan, and Mutt. I dodged the trees as I ran following Stefan's scent. It lead me to the house where I had just fed on the girl. I heard Mutt yelling in the back so I walked there, knowing Elena and Stefan would be there. As I reached the back I saw Mutt yelling over the side of the pool, ready to jump in. I felt like pushing him. " Damon! Help!" Elena screamed when she saw me. Looking into her delicate brown eyes as they filled with tears made me want to help her. The urge was strong enough to make me jump in. I looked around under water and saw the girl. The girl I had fed on just 20 minutes ago. I pulled her ffrom the botton of the pool and resurfaced with her. Stefan crouched down and toke her into his arms. As he put her down on the deck, Elena stifled a cry. The girls face was pale and he lips were purple. Mutt leaned down and used CPR on her. He pumped on her chest and she coughed up a pool of water. Stefan held her up as she coughed, "Elena go grab blankets!" Stefan commanded. Elena ran inside as Mutt started to dry her off. I started to leave knowing I probably wasn't wanted here anymore. Stefan looked at me and mouthed thank you. I gave him a don't mention it wave and started to walk. "Damon! Wait!" Elena yelled. I turned to face her. She hugged me. "Thank you." She whispered in my ear. "Anything for you." I replied sarcastically with a smirk. She turned around and ran to the girls aid. Knowing I would be hungry again soon, I left to hunt.
