Dear diary, My life is so confusing, I mean I have a boyfriend and he is the quarterback, What more could I want, I have a caring brother who is on drugs, and I've just lost my parents, 'Why me?' why did my mom and dad have to drive off the bridge Why did I have to go to that party that night, it's my entire fault I shouldn't have skipped family night I should have stayed at home with my mom and dad all of this wouldn't have happened if I hadn't gone.

1 year later

Dear diary, I'm feeling strong today, for the first time since the accident I feel awake, I will not mourn or cry I will smile; I won't be the sad girl who lost her parents. I will be alive

Elena

I didn't know what else to say I've not wrote in this thing since the accident but I'm not going to think about this anymore I'm going to look into the future. Elena's phone started ringing it was Bonnie's ringtone

"Hey bonnie"

"Hey you ok are you sure you should be going back today"

"yeah bonnie, if I don't go back now then I will never get used to it and anyway I need to find a new boyfriend and the only way I'm going to do that is if I ..."

"GO BACK TO CHEER PRACTICE"

"Exactly"

"ok I'll be there to pick you up in 15 minutes be ready IN YOUR CHEER UNIFORM"

"K sees u in a bit"

Right first things first I need to get ready.I looked towards my cheer uniform which i had lay out on my dresser the night before. I knew today was going to be a good day.

Ten minutes later Elena was in her red uniform and was applying her makeup, now Elena never wore makeup she didn't need to she was the most popular girl in school everyone looked up to her and seen as she had dated the hottest jock no one cared what she looked like but seen as it was the first day off term she wanted to make a good impression on all the boys.

Bonnie arrived 10 minutes later in her new white Toyota prius.

"Are you sure you are ready for this, I mean it's only been a year "asked bonnie

"Yeah I'm sure I'll be fine I have to be I can't live the rest of my life in the dark I have to be strong for jerr's sake"Elena replied.

As they got out the car Elena was jumped onto by her best friend Caroline, she had long blonde hair which was curled.

"OH MY GOD is you ok I'm so sorry what happened" Caroline bust out saying

"Yeah I'm fine just can't wait to get back out on the market" Elena replied

"Oh yeah I heard about you and matt was it not working out"

"Yeah it just wasn't ...going smooth we just lost interest and with everything going on about my parents I just needed a fresh new start"

"Well... I spot two new hotties behind you "said Caroline

I turned around to see who it was that got hold of her interest so quickly,

He was magnificent this stranger He was tall looked about 18 with black hair he was with a younger looking boy who looked about my age (16) he was just as cute but he had blond hair and an old fashioned hair style which wasnt my type, But the guy who looked 18 was cute, It was like arrow had been put through my heart.

"Well go and speak to them" said bonnie

Just as she said that Mrs Smith the receptionist saw me

"Elena...Elena can you come here and help these two new boys for the day they don't know their way and there in most off your classes"

"Yes of course ... Hey I'm Elena"

"Hello Elena I'm Damon"

He was so hansom with his black electric hair and his baby blue eyes just standing there in the corridor smirking at me I knew we were going to be friends.

Dear Diary,

There is a new guy at school and his name is Damon. He seems Dangerous and mysterious. He has a brother, who is so annoying, I mean he is so old school and he has a Jedward hair style. Bonnie seems to like him but I don't. I like Damon, He is so dreamy he has black hair and blue eyes that sparkle. He is like my own Edward Cullen but he is a proper one not a stupid idiotic one that isn't human, he is my human is the Miss Mystic falls, my mum wanted me to do it before she died she had signed me up and everything so I'd decided to do it not for me but for my mom. She was the one who signed me up before she died, the only thing I needed was an escort. I wondered about asking Damon but I hardly knew him I mean it would be weird.

Elena looked up from her diary wondering , though I did have his number and he did say he would help me with anything, it was worth a shot.

I text him asking him and within two seconds of sending he replied saying yes I was so relieved he said he would pick me up at seven. OK. I had a date and a dress now I needed Caroline to help me with makeup. She was over by 5 pm with lots of bags she had Matt for a date. It felt weird not dating Matt but to be honest I was starting to feel for Damon and he didn't even know it hopefully he would make a move tonight. Caroline was finished by 6:40 and then left to meet Matt just as I closed the door to my room the door bell rang and Damon was stood there looking hansom as ever we walked to the Lockwood household.

It had been raining and so it had been moved inside, me and Damon had done the traditional dance which was a slow styled dance and we were no waiting for the results to be announced.

I was so nervous and was sure Caroline would win she had the most perfect dress and the most gorgeous hair then Mrs Lockwood came to the stand to announce the results:

"All these girls have tried so hard this year to make a difference to the community and it is my honour to announce the winner ...And the winner is ...ELENA GILBERTS"

"Omg Damon we won"

And then the unexpected happened
