2. Sometimes I hate my teenage hormones

When we go through the main doors we can even feel the activity rolling off of people in waves. You can find a lot of different kind of people on the school halls, unfortunately, this is Mystic Falls so, there aren't that many.

Although Damon and I are best friends we don't usually hang out with the same people even though both of our gangs get along.

Damon loves to hang out with Alaric Saltzman, or like he likes to be called, Ric. Klaus Mikaelson hangs out with them too. The three of them against the world. But that doesn't mean he doesn't spend time with me anymore, in fact, he does it a lot. But
/I perfectly understand that he has other friends. And so do I. I just don't hang out with the same crowd. I'm not part of the 'bad boys of high school'. I prefer people like Caroline Forbes. She's my best friend. I have friends, sure. But no one likeher.

Mason Loockwood is a really nice guy. I even had crush on him at some point. He is really good looking too. I could even give him a try, but I don't know if it's such a good idea, because Damon really hates him. They are like mortal enemies. But I guess
/if Damon really is my best friend he wouldn't care as long as I'm happy, right?

We go straight to our lockers. Damon accompanies me to my locker to get my books.

He smiles at me.

"Are you going to the Loockwood's after party?" He asks me as we stand by the lockers. He's leaning on the locker besides mine. His arms crossed over his chest. As handsome as always.

"Yes. You?"

"I didn't want to, but Klaus is forcing me to go"

"What? Why would he do that?"

"Because Caroline is going"

Ah. Now I get it. Klaus has had a crush on Caroline since I can remember. I think Caroline is attracted to him too but won't admit it because he's a bad boy and could ruin her reputation. But I trust her. I know she knows what has to be done, she just
/has to be ready.

When we arrive to my classroom we say our goodbyes and I head inside. I sit next to Caroline and start counting down the minutes until school is over. I hate this place. Why am I going to lie?

While the lasts minutes of my last class pass so painfully slow I start thinking again.

If someone ever kidnaps me and leaves me alone with my thoughts, I think I would think so much that I'd lose my mind.

Today there's a basketball match. Damon is playing and Caroline is cheerleading. So I'm going.

I was a cheerleader once, but I quit because I just wasn't into it anymore.

When I arrive at my house my parents aren't there, they left with Giuseppe and Lily to the movies and they took Jeremy and Stefan with them, so I have the house to myself.

I start to get ready for the match and I leavein thirty minutes.

When I get there I see Damon behind the field with some colleagues. I approach him to wish him luck. When he sees me his face lits up and my heart jumps in response.

"Hey"

"Hey, I just wanted to wish you luck"

"Thanks Gilbert, but I'm not going to need it, I'm going to win"

"You're so full of yourself…"

"You love it"

"You wish… Anyway I'm going to see Caroline. I'll see you later"

"Later, beautiful"

Beautiful? What the hell was that? Am I wearing something different? As I walk away I look down to what I'm wearing. Jeans, pink tan top… nothing special. I'm so confused right now.

In the distance I can spot Caroline preparing with the rest of the cheerleader team and I immediately start to head that way.

"Hey, Care"

"Oh my god, Elena you're finally here! I thought you weren't going to come! I was so worried I was about to call to your place!" She starts bubbling, but I'm used to it by now.

"Relax, Care. I was just talking to Damon" I say, remembering his earlier compliment.

I must zone out, because Caroline narrows her eyes at me. She has always thought that we're made for each other, but I'm not that dumb, Damon would never love mehe sees me as his best friend, nothing more. But evenif he does love me how the
hell are wesupposed to work?

"Whatever. Go sit down the match is about to start and I have to finish preparing myself. Oh! And call my mom, she isn't here yet." As I walk away I can hear her mumbling.

"Where the hell is she?"

Life would be so boring without Caroline Forbes.

Just when I'm about to go to the bleachers I hear someone yelling and I recognize that voice. That voice I'd recognize it anywhere. Damon.

I run in that direction to find him yelling at Mason and grabbing him by the collar of his t-shirt.

Mason is not in the basketball team, but he is in the football team and he comes to watch every basket match because his cousin Tyler does play in the team.

"You fucking bastard!" I can hear Damon yell as he throws his fist into Mason's jaw. He cries out in pain.

"Stop!" I yell over the mumble of voices whispering and shouting.

They both turn inmy direction shocked that I was there.

"Damon, let go of him" I say in a stern voice.

He huffs before letting him go rather roughly and walking away. And I can still hear the whispers around me. What the hell just happened? I am so confused and angry at the world right now that I yell.

"Will you all just shut up!" Everything goes silent. You could hear a pin drop. Sometimes I hate my teenage hormones.

Then I remember Damon and the state he was in and I run after him without thinking twice about it, leaving a stunned crowd behind me.
