I apologise before hand at the sudden change in events and also for the lateness of the updating. Disclaimer: I do not own Vampire Diaries just Marie Evans.
Marie POV-will be unless chapter has bold POV
Wow. So much has changed since the 1800s. Mystic Falls is completely different. It's so strange seeing it like this. I'm going back to my home town. The place where I grew up no matter how many years that was ago. This is my last chance to see Damon. Oh, how I missed him. I hope he is still alive. Katherine has stolen so much from him, I have to give myself back before she finds me. I build up the Evans boarding house near my old house. So many memories, and faces that I will never see again. I need to do this before my entire being is gone. I disobeyed Katherine and will meet my demise sometime in the future. It's hard I was her puppet, her slave for so long and then I had escaped. Seeing Damon again is damn well worth that price. I hope he remembers me. I cannot comprehend what I will do if that is the case. Perhaps I will walk in the sun. Or maybe stake myself. But for now my insane ramblings will have to wait another day for I have something to do.
I stepped out of my car, I thought 'The world has continued on without me'. I had already been to my new house and was now waling into the Mystic Grill. When you crave food, you know, you tend to go straight to the source. I made a note to visit my grave. I wish I could've been there to see my funeral, Oh wait I was. Wallowing in regret, envy and punishment. As soon as I stepped in the door all eyes turned to me and as I looked back, I could see the genetic similarities between some people in the town. Forbes, Lockwood and Gilbert. Gilbert the man that caused the population downfall in mystic falls all those years ago. That, and he caused Damon's death. But he's dead so I guess he got what was coming for him. The person I am currently looking at as I carry on my mind ramblings is none other than Jeremy Gilbert. Interesting. I notice a blonde person, with way too much make up on stride confidently towards me. Ugh, as if I didn't have enough problems. The blonde then spoke, "Hi, I'm Caroline. You must be the new girl that Mrs. Lockwood told me about"
"Hello, Caroline. My name's Marie Evans" I said as I looked her dead in the eye. She is way too bubly.
"Mrs. Lockwood told me you were arriving in town in time for Founder's Day Gala. She also told me.." this is where i stop listening, she talks too much for my taste.
I see Carol Lockwood enter the Grill. "Hey, Caroline, would you excuse me for a minute. I have to go talk to Mrs. Lockwood" I say as politely as possible.
"Sure, See You"
"Byƫ". I turn and walk towards the Mayor's wife. "Hi , Carol."
She turns and smiles "Marie, just in time. We are having a, how do you put it, a bachelor sell-off. All the single men in the town will have numbers and if you recieve the same number than you own him for the night."
Interesting, just the opening I need. Dramatic enterance."Really, that sounds awesome. What do I have to do to be in the running"
"Well, I could sell you your ticket now. Who would you like to be in the running for?" she says excitedly, obviously happy that I'm getting involved.
"Whose available?" I say, truly curious.
"Alaric Saltzman, a new teacher, Damon Salvatore, ..."
"Damon Salvatore" I say. YES!
"Do you know him?" I can hear the curiousness in her voice.
"We grew up together and I have seen him for such a long time. Can you help me surprise him?"
"Yes, of course". That concluded our conversation as I prepped and bought a ticket. Now I'm leaving to get ready.
"See you later tonight."
