8 years later...

"Katherine hurry up! We are going to be late for our first day of highschool!" Caroline yelled from down the hall. Caroline had been Katherine's best friend ever since she and her were in the same 2nd grade class. They were practically joined at the hip.

"Okay! Okay! I'm coming let me finish curling this last strand." Katherine said annoyed because they still had another 30 minutes before they had to leave. Katherine sat her curling iron down and turned it off. She walked over to her closet and pulled out a scandalous number from the back of her closet. It was made up of tight black skinny jeans an off the shoulder top that pushed her breasts up to the perfect height, it accented her clavical and neck with grace. The top was a deep red color and looked as though it was a corset. Her shoes were nothing but the best black stilettos with the same red on the bottoms. Katherine glanced at herself for a final time before deciding she was ready. She threw a couple cosmetics into her purse and paused taking a deep breath.

"Pull yourself together Katherine. It's just the first time you're seeing him since 6th grade calm down. He doesn't like you that way. Today will be fine." She messed with her hair and opened the door and walked to find Caroline in the living room texting Bonnie probably.

"Are you ready?" Katherine asked.

Caroline looked up from her phone and her jaw dropped. She had never seen Katherine with as much makeup on as this or even see her in anything other can baggy shirts and black leggings.

"Who are you and where did Katherine Pierce go?" Caroline asked getting up and circling katherine to take in every angle of her figure.

"I just thought it was highschool. Might as well get a new look to go with the new school." Katherine said trying not to make it obvious why she dressed as seductively as this of course nothing got past her bestfriend. As Caroline faced her looked her in the eyes and smirked.

"Well I hope Elijah likes this transformation as much as I do." Caroline said. "What did you do with your other clothes anyway?" Caroline asked confused.

"Goodwill." Katherine stated.

"Oh. Okay." Caroline shared.

They went to climb in the back of Katherine's mother's SUV waiting for her to drive them.

"Katerina are you sure you're confortable wearing that?" Her mother said pulling up to the school.

Katherine rolled her eyes before responding. "Yes Mama. I'll be fine."

Her mother shook her head and said goodbye to the girls.

The first half of the day went by smoothly. Katherine didn't run into him once. Until lunch. Rebekah and Kol walked up to her with a look on their face. The twins of the school. Kol was in her 1st grade class, and she didn't meet Rebekah until 7th grade.

"Well look what we have here." Kol said leaning on the frame of the lunch entrance. Rebekah scoffed rolled her eyes at her brother and looked at Katherine. She had something she needed to tell her and her only.

"Oh look there's Bonnie." Rebekah said to get rid of her brother since he had the biggest crush on her.

"Okay Rebekah spit it out." Katherine said.

"Okay so last night I overheard Elijah talking to either Marcel or Lucien on the phone." Rebekah said with confusion.

"Okay what did he say?" Katherine said impatiently.

"Okay fine. Anyway he went on and on about some girl and how happy he was to see her again."

Katherine's heart stopped. Did he? Could he really after all this time like her too? Anytime someone asked Katherine who she liked it was a simple 'no one at the moment' or 'you don't know them'. Suddenly her outfit felt too tight, and she couldn't breathe. Her face paled and Katherine had a blank stare. Rebekah had walked away a while ago muttering something along the lines of 'creppy'. All of a sudden, out of the blue a voice she thought she would never hear again brought her out of her trance.

"Hello Katerina." Her real name sounded perfect rolling off his tounge with delight and passion. Katherine swore under her breathe to whoever thought it was okay to make the freshmen and juniors have lunch together. She turned on her heal to face a finely dressed dark haired god. He wore khaki knee length shorts with a polo and Speares to match. His hair gelled back to the popular style of the year. Freshly shaved and smelt like a high end cologne. His sent was intoxicating and infected her.

"Elijah!" Katherine said walking up well, more like almost running to him and eloped him into a tight hug. Her tiny body compressed against his broad quarterback figure. Even in heels he was still taller than her. She felt protected with him around.

Oh he didn't realize how screwed he really was. He spent the whole summer preparing himself of her presence but actually experiencing it in person after 3 years, oh he was so screwed.

A/N: Okay y'all that sums up the second chapter I hope you all liked it! Don't forget to review and favor it means the world to me! I hope to start writing chapter 3 soon. Until next times my lovelys!
