A/N: Hey again, I got a pretty good return on my little drabble so I decided I'd write this little piece to hold you over until I am actually able to give you my first full chapter, kind of a thanks to all of you who reviewed, there is no Klaus and Caroline scene in this, and this will be a AU story. Thanks to all of you again. – Rachelle

Mini Chapter

Everything Starts with a Morning


She woke up with a start, her alarm blaring in her sensitive ear as she ran a hand of newly manicured nails through her now tousled hair mostly from sleeping, or should she say, tossing and turning with her eyes closed.

She was never a morning person even before she became a vampire, always considered herself more a creature of the night, ironic it was that she became exactly that.

The worst part of it all, well of course besides having to drink blood to survive and watching everyone around you eventually die withering away in the wind while you stayed as young as the day you found out vampires weren't only in the books you read, was the sun. Yes, the sun.

Ever since she had turned, it always felt weird upon her skin, completely excluding the fact it could burn her to a crisp without her day walking ring, and now she was fated an eternity of pale damnation. Definitely not one of her favorite perks of being a vampire.

After finally convincing herself out of bed, she ran through her morning chores at human speed, didn't want to tip her mom (A.K.A the sheriff) off in her change of "living" style. Finishing with a swipe of mascara, and a check of the clock; only 10:30, good still on time. She made her way out the door and into her Acura, destination the one and only Mystic Falls Grill.
