From the front door, Jeremy was travelling towards me with a relieved expression, as was Tyler from the pool table, a sexy flirtatious smile spread across his face. Slowly smiling at my private show I giggled under my breathe. Finally the moment came were both of them collided and a confused atmosphere clouded around them. Jeremy stood for a while, glaring at Tyler.
Tyler looked down before smirking. He looked at me once, winked and returned to his game of pool. Jeremy breathed, his eyes now focused on me. "Hey Anna" He said and sat down opposite me. I squinted my eye.
"Hey" Was all I said.
"I thought you were leaving town with your Mom?" He asked with hope in his voice. I shrugged.
"She got tired of my begging and grovelling and finally caved" I tried sounding polite. Whether that was working or not, I didn't know. Jeremy smiled, showing all his beautiful straight teeth. Suddenly his eyes drifted else were and the smile softened and soon turned into a frown.
"I think Lockwood likes you" He sounded frustrated. I tilted my head slightly.
"Tyler Lockwood? Seriously?" I giggled. Jeremy wasn't amused.
"So what you don't like him back?" I was so enjoying this. Time to have some fun.
I shrugged. "He's cute, and his Dad is the mayor... I don't know!"
Jeremy laughed once before standing out of his seat.
"There's Jenna, she is probably looking for me" I nodded. "See you later?" I nodded for a second time. He smiled and walked towards his aunt. Urgg. I rolled my eyes. I cannot wait until he's not completely in love with me.
The mayors wife was on the small stage they had set up with a microphone introducing all the Mystic Falls most eligible bachelors. I applauded all of them, except Damon. He wasn't eligible, definitely not a bachelor.
"Not a big fan of his huh?" I heard a seductive voice from behind me. I turned my head to see Tyler Lockwood.
"Most definitely not!" I answered turning back around enjoying watching all the guys failed, desperate attempt of getting a date. Tyler moved and sat in the chair that had just been abandoned by Jeremy.
"Yeah thats, the other Salvatore right? Stefan's brother?" Tyler asked, making conversation. I nodded.
"Yup, that's the one" I said keeping my eyes on the bachelors. I got bored and finally looked Tyler in the eyes.
"So you know the Salvatore's?" He asked. I laughed.
"Oh we go way back..." I noticed his expression. Now he was bored that I wasn't craving for him to ask me out. He sighed.
"I know we don't really know each other, but you should come play some pool with me" He said. It wasn't a question. I giggled.
"Oh I should?" I asked. He looked at me up and down.
I debated with myself whether I should or shouldn't. Immediately my mind was made up when I saw Jeremy looking at us with jealous eyes. I went to speak until the little catchy ring tone told me I had a text message.
HELLO ANNA, I WANT YOU TO MEET ME IN THE WOODS! LOVE YOUR MOTHER
Huh. She's texting. That's a good start, she just about got onto the messages inbox last night so I guess she's been practicing.
I sighed. "I'm sorry..." I started. "That was my mother" Tyler nodded slowly.
"Sure...some other time then? like... tomorrow?" He wondered. I seductively bit my lip and raised my eyebrows. I shrugged before I stood up from my seat. Tyler smiled and eye stalked me as I left him. Laughing only for myself to hear, I caught the eye of a torn Jeremy before I left the grill...
Tylers POV.
That chick is one little hottie, and the best part is she so wants me. Okay... maybe she's playing hard to get, but by tomorrow she'll definitely want to screw with me. I sat there smirking to myself, loving how I always get the girl Jeremy wants. I caught Jeremy's glare and waved at him, trying to come across as patronizing.
He shook his head and walked out. I laughed and stood up, bumping into a working Matt.
"Sorry man" I said.
"Yeah no problem... hey is that Anna you were talking to?" He asked. I narrowed my eyes at him.
"You know her?" I asked in disbelief.
"I bumped into her earlier today. She was carrying books, I helped her with them and we had like a 20 second conversation" He explained. I nodded with a smile and said.
"Cool, well hey when you're finished with work we're playing pool right?"
Matt looked over across the room with a subtle, frustrated expression among his eyes. I followed his stare. His mom, Kelly Donavon, was talking to Caroline, who looked hurt. When she walked away, she fell over, probably due to all the booze.
"God..." Matt murmered and stormed off to his mom to help her up. I shrugged.
"Whatever!" and walked back to my game of pool...
Anna's POV.
"Anna is that you?" my mother shouted. I followed her voice and finally I found her stood in front of a small, cute house, with all the windows lit up. She smiled when she saw me. I returned the smile.
"Is this were we will be staying?" I asked. She nodded.
"For now..."
