AN: Sorry it took so long for me to update, school has been pretty hectic lately. Thanks so much for the reviews randomlittleme and starinthem. Since this is my first story, I'm happy to get any kind of feedback LOL. Starinthem I thought about that, but I have another role planned for him. Also since this is AU unless specifically stated none of the character (such as Damon and Stefan) are related.=

Acceptance

The incident was all over the news the next day. A mysterious girl the media had named cat woman had saved one of the students at Fells high school. There were videos and pictures all over the web of the rescue. The media was also talking about how the F4 were rumored to be behind it. A lot of people were mad that the best high school in the nation was housing such awful bullies. The school was considered a breeding ground for the future leaders of America.

"Could you turn that off," Bonnie said to her friend Carolina who had the TV on one of the many news stations talking about her. Today was the day she worked at the coffee shop where her best friend since preschool also worked.

"Why Bonnie? You're a hero everyone is talking about it," the bubbly blonde said as she took a seat at one of the many empty tables. As much as they both loved working with John, the manager and owner, the job was boring. They rarely received any customers.

"Because I'm sick of hearing about it; I'm just happy they don't know who I am."

"It should have been me," Caroline said with a sigh. "Did you get to see them?"

"Who?" Carolina could be kind of cryptic sometimes.

"The F4 duh, did you see Damon or Stefan. I heard they were suppose to be even hotter in person."

"Come on Caroline you know I don't keep up with that kind of stuff. Anyway, they are the reason for all of this mess I really don't care to ever meet any of them."

"Hey Bonnie," called John from behind the bar. John was kind of weird he claimed to be able to see the future but none of his predictions every came true. "Could you take the trash out it's starting to pile up"

"Sure," Bonnie called back over to him. It sure beat standing around talking about that stupid F…F… whatever they called themselves.

Making her way out of the back door Bonnie was immediately bombarded with a dozen reporters and photographers. They had found her. Taking a deep breath Bonnie turned to the cameras and did the only thing she could think of. She smiled.

"Have you seen the latest headline headmistress?" Alaric the chief secretary asked.

"Yes, I have," replied Mrs. Salvator. "How did you allow for my son's name to be dragged into this? He is the future of Fell's group. I will not have any bad press fall on him or the name of this company."

"What would you like me to do?" Alaric asked.

"Since the public is outraged about the incident, we must go into damage control."

Today had been a hectic day for Bonnie. Since everyone had found out who she was, she was constantly being followed around and bombarded with questions from the media. As she approached home, which was located above the family business, she didn't notice the Mercedes and body guards lining the street.

"Mom, Dad I'm home" Bonnie shout as she walk into the small foyer and hung up her jacket in the hall closet.

"Mom, dad where are you?" Bonnie said as she walked into their small living room to find her mom, dad, little sister, and a strange man.

"Bonnie, this is Alaric from Fell's High School. They would like to offer you a scholarship to the school. Isn't this great?" Mrs. Bennett said.

"Bonnie," Alaric said, "we heard that you were really into swimming and we would like you to join out swim team."

"What, I'm not going to that school…"

"Bonnie" her mom interrupted. "You always said you wanted to go to a school with a swim team. This is your opportunity to live your dream."

"How about I give you guys time to think about it?" Alaric asked.

"There's nothing to think about, Bonnie will be at your school bright and early tomorrow morning," Replied her father.

"Thank you for accepting our invitation we look forward to having a person like Bonnie at our school." Alaric said. "I'll let myself out."

"Bonnie isn't this exciting you will be at the school with some of the riches families in America. Think of all the good dating prospects." Mrs. Bennett stated.

"And you will be in the same school with the F4," Lucy her little sister said, "I heard they were so cute."

"I already told you, I'm not going to that school for snobs," Bonnie yelled storming off in the direction of her room.

She was stopped short when her father step in front of her. "This is your opportunity to make a better life for us. Please take it."

Early the next morning Bonnie found herself sitting in their delivery truck outside of the now infamous Fells high. Her dad insisted that he drive her since it was her first day.

Adjusting her deep burgundy blazer, Bonnie reached for the door handle only to be stop be her father.

"Let me get that for you," he said as he jumped out of the white van dressed in a full suit.

He wanted to appear to be her driver, but from the looks of things, most of the students her age drove.

"Bye sweetheart I'll see you at home," he dad said as he pulled her bike from the back of the van.

Taking a deep breathe Bonnie turned around to make her way to the school. This year was going to be interesting.

AN: Okay, so Damon wasn't in this chapter either but he will be in the next one. If there are any mistakes let me know.
