The Diaries
Dear Diary,
Is anyone there? Does anyone really care that I lost my parents or am I just the popular kid that if you tell her your sorry for her loose you get points. That somehow you work your way into her for being popular tight knit group. Is it even possible for this school year to be even close to what the beginning of last year? Could it be that I'm making this up or does Matt seem to shy away from me now? Bonnie dear sweet Bonnie is being over protective but Caroline is still herself which is good. I'm happy one of us could stay normal. I'm going to get through this but it doesn't help when I have a brother that hates me. Ok he doesn't hate me but he is making it harder with his fighting with everyone and doing drugs. I need help! I need something or someone to get me through this year! Maybe I'll find love.
It's 4:03 and I can't sleep Without you next to me I Toss and turn like the sea If I drown tonight, bring me Back to life Breathe your breath in me The only thing that I still believe In is you, if you only knew
Elena laughed in the back seat of her parents care as she song along to her new favorite song. Her Dad looked down at his phone as he went over wickery bridge. Elena's mom screamed as her dad swerved to miss a deer. They tumbled over the side railing falling into the water. Elena paniced as they sunk in the water. She was going to die. They were all going to die. Elena screamed an dug at her seatbelt trying to get it undone. He parents weren't do anything. They were sitting still as if in a state of shock. Finally she got her seat belt undone as the water started busting through her windows. She looked at her parents as she swam out of the car. They started at her in lonely thought. They looked at her in a blaming manner. Why wasn't she helping them
Elena woke up screaming. She struggled against her blankets as tears ran down her cheeks. Jammery came running into her room. He grabbed her arms and pinned them down as he stared into her eyes.
"Elena, your ok. It was just a dream. Your ok." Jeremy said soothingly. He was a great brother when he wasn't high. Elena slowly came out of it. She let out a shaky breath as she hugged him. Aunt Gina came walking into the room with a tried look on her face.
"Is everything ok Elena?" She asked trying to hide her yawn. Elena nodded before kissing her brothers cheek and laying back down. He brother nodded towards the door and Elena nodded again. The two left and Elena began to shake. She snuggled deeper into the pillows and blankets.
Bonnie pulled up to Elena's house smiling as she bounced up the steps and walked. Aunt Gina smiled at the young girl and put an extra plate on the table. Jeremy and Elena turned around to see who the visitor was, with a small smile Elena walked over to her best friend and hugged her tightly. Bonnie smiled and hugged her back before walking over to Jeremy giving him a small hug. He looked at her and smiled slightly before standing up.
"I have to go. Elena, make sure you take your pills." He said walking out of the back door. Bonnie and Elena looked at each other and then shook their heads. They would probably never understand Elena's little brother.
"Have you took your pills?" Aunt Gina asked. Elena nodded and sat down at the table with Bonnie to eat. The girls talked as they ate their toast Aunt Gina had laid out for them. Jeremy walked back in as the girls got ready to leave. Bonnie smiled at him and waved him to join them but he shook his head and sat down at the table. Elena shook her head at Bonnie and pushed her out the door.
"My grandma thanks I'm a witch!" Bonnie said as they got in the car. Elena looked at her and giggled slightly.
"A witch?" She asked as she heasentily got in the car and buckled the seatbelt into place. Bonnie nodded as she turned on the car and backed out of the driveway.
"Yea apparently my ancestors are from Salem." Bonnie said turning onto the main road. Suddenly something hit the windshield. Elena screamed as the car screeched to a halt. Bonnie got out of the car and grabbed the football. Elena got out of the car after and grabbed the basketball slowly walking across the street. She shoved the ball into the hands of Tyler Lockwood glared and walked away. Bonnie held out a hand for Elena who took for a second and then let go.
They got back into the car and rode the rest of the way to school in silence. Bonnie got out of the car first at school. She walked over to the other side of the car and opened the door for Elena who got out and linked arm with Bonnie and walked towards the school. It was now or never. Bonnie squeezed Elena's arm and Elena smiled and laid her head on her best friend's shoulder. They walked into the school and went to their lockers not saying anything to anyone. Elena ignored the looks she got an opened her locker. She slammed it shut and then leaned against it waiting for Bonnie.
Caroline ran up to Elena and hugged her tightly. Elena smiled and hugged Caroline back tightly.
"Are you ok?" Caroline asked Elena before turning to Bonnie. "Is she ok?"
"Hey, right here, Care. Yes I'm fine." Elena said getting another hug by Caroline before she walked away. Bonnie gave Elena a look and started laughing. Elena laughed and followed Bonnie down the hallway. Bonnie stopped dead in her tracks and watched as Jeremy walked into the bathroom. Elena could have screamed but she looked at Bonnie and smiled before walking to the boy bathroom.
Elena walked in and grabbed her brother roughly. "Your high! I gave you a free pass for the summer but this is the first day of school and your high!" Elena screamed at her brother. He shrugged and continued putting eye drops in his eyes. Elena grabbed him again and slapped him hard across the face. Jeremy looked at her shocked as a new kid came in. He looked at the to with wide eyes the slap echoed around the room.
"Your insane, Elena." Jeremy said holding his cheek. He shoved past the new kid and walked out of the bathroom letting the door slam behind him. The new kid looked at Elena who groaned loudly.
"I uh you know." Said the new kid. Elena forced a smiled and walked past him out of the bathroom. Bonnie walked up beside her and linked their arms together.
"So how did that go?" Bonnie asked as they walked into Mr. Tanners room. Elena gave her a don't ask look and sat down in her seat. Bonnie smiled and gave Elena a we will talk about this later look and went to her seat and sat down.
The boy from the bathroom walked in and sat down two seats from Elena. She could have melted. The boy looked at her and then turned towards the teacher.
"Class today we will be covering the revolutionary war. Bonnie, when did this war start and when did it end." He asked watching as she put her pen to her mouth to chew on it nervously.
"I don't know." Bonnie said putting her pen down and looking at the teacher. Mr. Tanner nodded and looked at Mat.
"Mat would you like to share your wisdom with us?"
"I would really rather not, Mr. Tanner." Matt smirked at the teacher who glared back. Elena smiled at him and looked down as her phone vibrated. She flipped her phone open and smiled.
Omg! He is crazy. Hope he doesn't call on you.
Love B.
Elena turned and looked at Bonnie smiling slightly. Mr. Tanner tapped his pointer on her desk. She turned around and groaned inwardly.
"Mrs. Gilbert. Would you like to help you ex out." Mr. Tanner said looking at the girl. Elena looked at Mat and then at Bonnie. Bonnie shrugged and mouthed sorry to her while the rest of the class sat and watched silently.
"I'm sorry. I don't know." Elena said and Mr. Tanner glared at her.
"Elena I cut you break last year for obvious reasons but I will not be nice this year. You parent died four months ago get over it. Pay attention to the class and maybe you might know something. Cell phone please." Mr. Tanner held out his hand for her cell phone. She gave it to him with a shaky hand and then watched as he tossed it on his desk.
"Now would anyone like to help orphan out." Mr. Tanner said looking at the girl in front of him. He had never like the Gilberts and he certainly did not like kids so this was a prefect moment to toture all of them because everyone loves Elena.
"Man, Shut up. You can't talk to a student like that! And the answer to your question is 1775 to 1783." Stephen said glaring at the teacher. They were all saved by the bell and Elena looked at the boy who saved her. Bonnie hurried up to her and gave her a hug. Elena hugged her best friend back as some other people either patted her head or her back none of them dared to stay with her though besides Bonnie.
"I want to know that boy." Elena said to Bonnie as she walked out of the school that night. Bonnie nodded and asked if she wanted a ride but of course Elena said no. She walked down to the cemetery. She walked in and walked over to her parents grave smiling she sat down beside them and began to write in her diary.
Dear diary
Sometimes I feel alone like no one really cares about what I do or how I'm doing. Mr. Tanner he is one of them. I don't know why he doesn't like me I have always been a good student but I don't really care. I have never really like him. He was always to fast to pick on kids and make fun of us. How he ever became a teacher is beyond me. I meet the new student. Sort of he kind of saved me in Mr. Tanner class but I don't know his name or what he does or why he's here or who he's family is. I want to know him more though. I wish we hadn't meet in the boys bathroom but something tells me I was destiny or something like that I...
Elena looked up to see a crow sitting on top of her parents head stone. The bird screeched at her. She looked at the bird with fear and threw a rock at it. "Go away! Stupid bird." She said standing up. Suddenly fog was surrounding her. The bird suddenly flew towards her tangling its self in her hair. Elena let out an ear pricing scream. She grabbed her purse and began to run. She ran into the woods and away from the fog and that creepy bird. She slipped on the wet moss and feel down a steep hill. She got up and began to run again when she ran into someone. She screamed again and began to struggle as the person just held onto her.
"What's wrong? Are you ok?" The new kid from school was asking her. She relaxed suddenly feeling safe again.
"Their was a bird and then it flew at me and the fog." Elena gasped out. Stephen looked at her confused. "Where you following me?"
"No...actually didn't know you were her until you screamed." he said.
"Oh. Well why are you here then? Do you just hang out in the cemetery?" She asked looking down at herself. She had mud all over and she felt gross.
"No, Im visiting I have family here. Kind of like you my parents are buried here." He said softly and Elena's face fell.
"Omg! I'm so so so so sorry! I didn't know!" Elena said walking forward and hugging him. Stephen stiffened but hugged her back. Elena stepped back and looked at her.
"I'm Stephen." He said holding out his hand. Elena smiled and took it. She blushed when he kissed her hand and then looked back up at her.
"Elena Gilbert." She said and he gave her a knowing smile. Suddenly his eyes began to crease. She looked at him with worry. "Are you ok?"
"Are you ok? No blood. I hope." He said not looking at her. She leaned down to look at herself. When she looked back up he was gone. She looked around and then shrugged going home.
