A/N This is my first Fanfiction. I had been wanting to do one for a while. Sorry if the story is draggy or boring at first but I will pick up the pace as the story goes along. The first two chapters are introductory chapters to the main characters. So please review with ideas and/or criticisms you may have :)

P.S. Warning I have not proofread the chapter yet, but I wanted to publish the Epilogue of the story as it is so I can get my ideas in order.

Caroline Forbes always lived under the shadows of her best friends Elena Gilbert and Bonnie Bennett. She always admired their beauty and their lovable personalities but sometimes envied them for it. It's not their fault that they were born kind hearted with the perfect body. Besides the occasional boy spat that they shared, they were the best of friends. They had known each other since they were in diapers and knew each other like the back of their hand.

This year they were starting their first year in college. They were officially in college as freshmen and Caroline still couldn't get over that fact. Caroline was planning to major in Acting along with a minor in Business, while both Elena and Bonnie decided to major in Fashion Design and minor in Acting.

"So Care, what your schedule this year? I got Mr. Mikealson for homeroom," Elena asked her as they looked at their schedule.

"EPPPPP! Me too. How about you Bonnie?" Caroline replied.

"I got Mr. Mikealson too! Seems like the inseparable trio still stands even after 12 years of schooling together. " Bonnie laughed.

"Can you believe it girls? I mean our first day of Mystic falls college starts tomorrow. We need to go do our annual celebration shopping today." Caroline exclaimed with a mixture of disbelief and excitement.

"Finally! Maybe that way we can finally meet some real men and not some immature boys," sighed Elena. Caroline remembered Elena being in a love triangle with the Salvatore brothers and the all the commotion it had caused. It got to out of hand that their Senior prom was almost ruined if it wasn't for Tyler and Matt. Luckily, they separated the brothers before it got really bloody.

"Speaking of immature boys, how's Tyler, Care?" Bonnie asked even though she already knew the answer. Caroline and Tyler were always around each other when they were kids and unknown to Caroline, he was in love with her ever since they were nine years old. Of course, Tyler didn't want to admit his feelings to her as he knew Caroline didn't return the feeling of love that he had for her. So to cover it up, he made himself the well-known playboy jock in high school. However, there was this one time that his relationship with Vicki lasted four months until she realized that he had feelings for Caroline. Ever since then Vicki hated Caroline but Caroline never knew the reason why.

"I don't know, he has been acting weird ever since prom. I haven't talked to him since we graduated." Caroline replied.

"It maybe because he secretly loves you. I mean every time he looks at you, he looks like wants to kiss you Care." Bonnie replied.

"Yeah Care. I mean whats so wrong with Tyler? He loves you and you have some type of feelings for him." Elena chimed in.

"First of all Bonnie he does not love that way and remember he as a girlfriend. Her name is Haley. Secondly, I do not harbor feelings for him. He is like my big brother who happens to be the same age as us," Caroline clarified.

"Whatever you say," Bonnie and Elena sang as they left to go to the mall.

After six hours at the mall, the girls each left to their own home with both arms filled with bags of clothing and accessories. Caroline was about to enter her home when two hands covered her eyes causing her to drop all her bags and start practicing self defense moves that her mother had taught her in times like these. However the person covering her eyes seemed to be anticipating it and spun her around causing her to have her back against the door. Caroline recognized the cologne that the mysterious man was wearing and said "Tyler you jerk. You scared the crap out of me."

Tyler laughed and responded "That was the point babe. Anyways I thought it would be funny. I came to tell you something important." Caroline realized how close their bodies were pressed together and felt a little warm feeling in the bottom of her stomach. Tyler must of realized and stepped back much to his dismay.

"I came to tell you that I got in to Mystic Falls University yesterday after my dad pulled some strings with the dean," Tyler said as he smiled. "This means that we are going to be going to the same college Care. Aren't you excited?"

"Wait then what about Hayley? I thought that she was going to Columbia and you were going with her?" Caroline questioned.

"Well we sort of broke up," Tyler responded. "We realized that we weren't meant for each other."

Tyler had unconsciously leaned in closer to Caroline and was about to kiss her until Caroline cleared her throat and said, " umm was that the important news?" Instead of responding, Tyler lifted her chin and kissed her. It wasn't that she didn't feel anything when they kissed, because Tyler was a good kisser, but because she realized that even though she kissed him back, she didn't feel the fireworks she had wanted. Once her realization hit, she backed away from the kiss. "Tyler I don't think this is a good time," Caroline said as she tried to reject him slowly.

"Care, I think its time that I tell you that I have loved unconditionally for the last 11 years." Tyler confessed. Caroline didn't know how to react to that, so she open the door and went inside her house without saying a word, leaving Tyler confused by her reaction.

Caroline called Bonnie and told her what had just happened. Bonnie couldn't be more than happy for Caroline and encouraged her to accept Tyler's confession but Caroline knew that he wasn't the man that she wanted to be with. After talking to Bonnie for two hours on the phone, Caroline realized that is was 11:00 at night and needed to get ready for bed as she didn't want her dark circles to get worst. When they hanged up, Caroline went to bed but couldn't go to sleep until 2 am thinking of how to approach Tyler the next day.

So what do you guys think? Reviews maybe? :)
