Thanks to everyone who said they liked my story. I appreciate the feedback. Keep it coming.

booklover457: I plan on it eventually, it will depend on the episode and different triggers.

RavieSweetie14: You are awesome

mimi81: ... um...

xxRAINBOWunicornsxx: there isn't really a specific person who portrays Annie, so however you see her that's great.

nadya12: the length of each episode is going to depend on how well I can fit Annie into what is already going on in Mystic Falls and how much I can twist the story to have it still make sense. The first episode is long because there is just so much to cover to get the story started

ThePhantomismyLove: I can't either! He is the best!

Okay so, this chapter is going to be longer due to the fact that I really want to get episode one done and move on with the story because I am just so excited! Hope you all are too.

"So what is your plan now? Steal candy from babies? Take walkers from elders? You made fog. You aren't exactly living up to your bad boy reputation yet Damon," I snarled as he pulled me behind him. He stopped suddenly and I nearly ran into him. He glared at me.

"Now is not the time for big moves, that comes later. No, now we are baiting him," he explained.

"Who? Your brother? What does Elena have to do with this?" I asked. He started walking again.

"You ask a lot of questions. Unfortunately for you I'm not going to answer them," he replied. Suddenly I noticed we were in front of my hotel. I froze.

"What are we doing here?" I asked. He looked at me like I was stupid.

"You're staying here aren't you? We need a place for the night and I'm not quite ready to make myself known yet," he explained. I offered a small nod but I didn't move. How did he know where I was living? I didn't tell him did I? His hand hit my back hard and I stumbled forward. Getting the hint I took slow steps towards the building. He followed behind me as I walked through the hall to my room. My hand shook as I tried to insert the key into the handle. It took me a moment and eventually Damon grabbed the key from my hand and opened the door. He made sure I entered first. Probably didn't want me to run away to ruin his plan.

I heard the door slam shut behind him and I jumped. He sat down on the luxury white couch in the middle of the room. I stood by the door, shaking. He looked at me expectantly. I didn't move.

"Annie, come here," he snapped. I nodded and walked over to him, still standing. He grabbed my arm and pulled me down beside him. I fell onto the couch with a small whimper. He laughed. "You really are a pathetic excuse for a vampire aren't you?" I didn't answer him. He groaned and turned to look at me. "Tell me something about yourself Annie." I looked at him cautiously. He smirked.

"Like what?" I carefully replied.

"What was your childhood like?" he asked. I cocked an eyebrow at him.

"That's not important," I snapped. His smirk fell and I instantly regretted what I had said. "I grew up in a small village. Everyone knew everyone. My mother was beautiful and kind. She raised me so I could be a wonderful wife one day. Not that my father would have allowed it. He never thought anyone was good enough for me." I shook my head, careful of my words but still worried I gave too much away.

"Wife? What are you twelve?" Damon asked teasing. I glared at him offended.

"I'm seventeen and it was uncommon for someone my age not to already have a suitor," I told him. He nodded and remained quiet for a moment.

"Sounds like your dad had issues," he said. For the first time with him I cracked a smile.

"Oh you have no idea. He was like that with his sister also. He wouldn't let 'unsuitable' characters near her. Because of him she never got married and she never forgave him for that," I explained. I stopped myself quickly after. I wasn't going any further into this. "That's enough. I will not tell you anymore."

"I think you will do what I want Annie," he said with a small smile. I shook my head.

"No, not now. I'm done," I snapped harshly, "I want to go to bed. It's been a long day." Damon looked at the clock behind him.

"It's eight o'clock," he teased. I nodded. "Okay, fine. Go get ready for bed then. I'll be here." I got up and grabbed my things before going into the bathroom and locking the door. I heard Damon chuckle from outside and I started shaking again.

I took my time getting ready and when I finally walked out of the bathroom to find Damon lying in my bed shirtless. I just prayed he was wearing something underneath the sheets. I looked around the room and only saw his shirt and shoes so I relaxed a little bit.

"Liking what you see?" Damon asked cockily, the smirk making an appearance on his face. I realized I had been staring. I shook my head and turned to go the couch. "What are you doing?"

"Well since you took the bed I thought I would sleep here tonight," I answered lying down. The room was cold but I tried my best not to think about it.

"Annie, come here," Damon said once again. I rolled over on the couch, looking away from him.

"No." I heard him growl.

"Suit yourself," he said before turning off the lights. I took a deep breath but didn't dare close my eyes.

...

The sun crept up, leaking light through the curtains. My already open eyes followed the beam of light that crossed the floor. Damon slept soundly on the bed. I listened to his rhythmic breathing. I didn't want to get up in fear of waking him. Suddenly the alarm went off loudly. I jumped at the sound. Damon sat up quickly.

"What the hell is that?" he asked, groaning. I stood up quickly and turned it off. The downside of my action was that I was now standing next to the bed. I tried to take a step away but Damon grabbed my wrist. I didn't move it was no use.

"My alarm, I have to get ready for school," I answered. He glared at me but groaned and lay back down in the bed.

"You aren't going to school," he mumbled into the pillow. My eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

"Yes I am. Why wouldn't I?" I asked. He turned to look at me.

"Three reasons. One you left practically before school even started yesterday, two my brother is there and three I don't want you too. You didn't sleep," he observed. I shook my head.

"I slept," I lied, self-consciously grabbing a strand of my hair. "And I'm going to school. What would people think if I didn't show up today? What would your brother think? He knows what I am." Suddenly Damon cut me off.

"What?" he asked angrily. His blue eyes were piercing.

"What?" I asked back, quietly.

"My brother?"

"Damon, it's not hard to figure out. But I really do have to go. For your and my sake," I replied. He growled at me but nodded.

"Fine. But you better be back here by four or I'm coming out to find you and I won't be happy about it," he threatened. I nodded and quickly moved to get ready.

...

I got out of the room as fast as I could and to the forest to get blood before I had to face the day. I couldn't drink blood in front of Damon, something about it just felt wrong. I didn't take long and soon I was at the school, sitting in Mr. Tanner's history class. Elena and Bonnie walked in a few minutes later, chatting. They smiled when they saw me.

"Hey, Annie. Where did you go yesterday? I didn't see you after History," Elena asked. I smiled back at her.

"I had a few things I had to deal with but everything should be okay now," I informed her. She nodded.

"Oh hey, there is a party tonight down at the falls. You should come," Bonnie said. I was a little surprised that she told me but I nodded.

"I will have to see. I really hope I will be able to make it though," I answered. The girls took their seats behind me.

"You have strict parents or something?" Bonnie asked.

"Something like that," I answered, with a small smile.

"Sneak out," Elena suggested. I looked at her shocked.

"I might actually be killed for that," I tried to joke. They laughed but an uncomfortable feeling grew in the pit of my stomach. I shouldn't even ask him, I was too scared. There was almost no chance of me going to that party tonight.

...

"The Battle of Willow Creek took place right at the end of the war in our very own Mystic Falls. How many casualties resulted in this battle? Ms. Bennett?" Mr. Tanner asked pacing in front of the class. 346 I thought. I looked behind me at Bonnie. She was smiling.

"Um, a lot? I'm not sure. Like a whole lot," she answered. A small smile broke out on my face. Elena laughed.

"Cute becomes dumb in an instant, Ms. Bennett. Mr. Donovan? Would you like to take this opportunity to overcome your embedded jock stereotype?" Tanner asked, practically glaring down the blonde boy a few rows over from me.

"It's okay, Mr. Tanner, I'm cool with it," he said. I noticed he was the boy that looked at Elena sometimes. He looked like he missed her. I felt bad for him. He caught me looking at him and I quickly looked away.

"Hmm, Elena? Surely you can enlighten us about one of the town's most significantly historical events?" the teacher asked.

"I'm sorry, I- I don't know," Elena admitted from behind me.

"I was willing to be lenient last year for obvious reasons, Elena. But the personal excuses ended with summer break," Mr. Tanner said rudely back to her. What happened to her? I wanted desperately to ask but that wasn't exactly appropriate right now, besides I barely knew her.

"There were 346 casualties. Unless you are counting local civilians," a familiar voice answered from the back row. Most of the class turned to look at Stefan surprised, or in Matt's case annoyed.

"That's correct. Mister...?" Tanner asked.

"Salvatore," Stefan answered. Mr. Tanner made an approving noise.

"Any relation to the original settlers here at Mystic Falls?" he asked.

"Distant."

"Well, very good. Except, of course there were no civilian casualties in this battle," Tanner replied trying to come across all know it all-y.

"Actually, there were 27. They were killed when Confederate soldiers fired on a church. They believed there were weapons inside," I replied. All eyes turned on my and I instantly wanted to sink away.

"And you are?" Mr. Tanner asked, his ears turning a little red with anger. I smiled bashfully.

"Oh, that's not important," I said, trying to brush it off. There were a few chuckles around the classroom.

"Your name," Tanner said trying to control his temper. I sighed.

"Annie Mikaelson sir," I whispered in defeat.

"Well Miss. Mikaelson, I would like to see you after class. You too Salvatore," he snapped. I flinched in my seat slightly.

The bell rang a few minutes later and as everyone filed out I remained seated.

"You two, come here," Mr. Tanner called from his desk. I stood up hesitantly and walked towards him.

"Yes sir?" I asked quietly as Stefan came to stand beside me.

"I will not be made a fool of do you understand me?" he snapped.

"I was just helping Stefan answer the question," I defended but he cut me off with a glare.

"In her defense Mr. Tanner you can go look her answer up. The founder's archives are stored in civil hall if you'd like to brush up on your facts," Stefan told him. My jaw dropped and I looked up at him. Mr. Tanner's ears weren't just red anymore, his whole face and become flushed with anger.

"Dismissed," Tanner said through gritted teeth. I held in my laughter until I was out of the room and the door was closed behind me.

"That was hilarious," I said looking at Stefan. He just smiled.

"Well, he was being unfair and I hate to see you get pushed around like that," he replied. The uncomfortable feeling in my stomach returned and my smile fell a little bit.

"Well, thank you," I whispered, "But I probably could have handled it myself." He nodded but gave me a knowing look before walking away. I let out a deep breath.

"Hey, Annie," someone called from behind me. I turned and saw Matt the jock. I smiled at him but my brain was reeling. What was going on today?

"Oh hi! Matt right?" I asked. He nodded.

"You're going to the party tonight right?" he asked. I shrugged.

"I hope so but it's unlikely," I admitted. He nodded again in a way to tell me he understood. But no one understood and no one would ever understand.

"Well if you do you should come find me and we can hang out," he offered. I looked at him surprised. Matt seemed like a really nice guy. Did I really want to bring him into all my stupid life drama? Screw it, I deserve to be happy.

"I would really like that. Maybe I will see you later," I said with a small wave before walking off. He smiled and turned to walk the other way.

The rest of the day went on pretty much incident free. I had two more classes with Elena, one with Stefan and three with Matt. I was never lonely in class that was for sure. And it felt good to be around people who genuinely cared about me. Now I had to go back to face Damon, and I was not excited for that.

Okay I lied but do not worry, I'm just putting the rest in another chapter. DO NOT FRET MY FRIENDS. But since that is technically two chapters in a day I feel like that deserves some reviews. REVIEW.
