ELENA'S POV
Her I was Elena Gilbert looking at my perfect reflection in the mirror. Oh yes! I could have any guy I wanted; I knew how to push their buttons. I looked over my outfit of my dark blue flare jeans and purple top with a black waistcoat. I had to look perfect today seeing as I was now starting senior year in high school with my best friends Bonnie and Meredith. This year was going to be perfect, no time for mistakes or errors; this would be a new year and a fresh start for me. I would have to move on from my parent's death and start anew. Moving on will be a good thing... I think.
I quickly checked over my reflection making sure I looked perfect. My brown hair was perfectly straight and my brown eyes looked bigger with my black mascara on. I ran downstairs and saw Aunt Jenna rushing around in the kitchen; she was probably late for work again. Jeremy was nowhere to be found and that wasn't unusual for me and Jenna since our parents died. Me and Jer used to be so close but we started to drift apart since the incident. Aunt Jenna wasn't much older than us so we treated her more as a friend than an aunt. Jenna didn't have the strict mother qualities.
"Wow you look good this morning, what's got you in high spirits today?" aunt Jenna asked while pouring some coffee into her thermos.
"Oh just the fact that today is the day that I move on from what happened in the last six months. You know Aunt Jenna I just realised that there's no point in being stuck in the past, it's not going to help our situation" I frowned. The "situation" meant getting Jeremy of drugs I didn't know what he was taking and frankly I didn't want to know, me and Jenna knew but we couldn't stop him.
Jenna frowned too as she realised what I was thinking "Elena don't worry about Jeremy he'll get over all of this soon. You just need to worry about school! This is your senior year, you're going to be graduating soon!" Aunt Jenna squeaked like a child. Aunt Jenna was still a child at heart and I loved her for that. I looked at clock shit! I was already late.
" Well I won't get off to a good start If I'm late, Mr. Tanner already has it in for me and I don't need another excuse for him to hate me" I replied.
"Okay well go and good luck sweetie!" Jenna chimed.
"Bye Aunt Jenna!" I shouted back as I shut the door on my way out. The second I was out of the door I got the weirdest feeling in the pit of my stomach. I felt as if I was being watched. Great Elena not only are you still grieving your parents you're also turning paranoid I thought. I quickly looked around me too check. No one there, I started to walk towards the school I have been going to for a couple of years. I loved the wind blowing in my hair and the coolness it brought to my skin. As I was passing through the Mystic Falls Cemetery I stopped dead in my tracks when I felt the same feeling in my stomach. I scanned the area around me again. I saw nothing apart from the most beautiful black crow I have ever seen high up in a tree. Rainbows glittered of the crow's wings and it's eyes were so black it looked as if they could see into my soul. The crow cocked it's head to the side in a swift motion and cawed. That was the last straw, I felt so terrified in that moment that I ran for my life through the road which cut through the cemetery at into the school parking lot. I was fighting for breath when I entered Robert. E. Lee high school. Wow that's never happened before.
