Caroline's P.O.V

I woke up and looked at my clock. Shit, I'm late! I ran in vampire speed and got to my first class just 10 minutes late. Thank God! I walked towards my friends seat until I heard one of them – Amy – talking to the other girls.

"It seems our little friend Caroline is not coming today."

"Thank God!" – Some of the girls said. WHAT? Before I could stop myself, I was using my vampire abilities to hear more clearly what they were saying. "She's so boring. She's always saying how she wants a normal, quiet life. – Amy scoffed – As if her life had any exciment bigger than planning a stupid prom!"

All the girls agreed and started laughing. BITCHES! I can't believe I considered them my friends! I could easily show how wrong they were, but I couldn't do that today. I was too damaged to even think about any of that. So, I left the classroom and started walking home to clear my head.

"How come that always happens to me? When will I find someone who likes me for who I am? Well, Klaus did. Shut up!" And there I was again, battling myself. That happened a lot when Klaus was the subject.

As I walked inside the building, I ran in to Elena. Great! At least there was someone I could talk to. "Hey Lena, aren't you going to class today?" – I asked. "Hey Care! No, actually, I came here just to change. I'm going out with Damon." – Well, so much for talking.

"Oh…ok"

"Is there something wrong, Care?"

"No, nothing. Go. Have fun." – I faked a smile.

"Ok, I will!" – She smiled back and left.

So…I guess it's just me again. I went to my room to get my drawing. It was the only thing that brought me peace when I needed. Where is it? I panicked and looked everywhere but I couldn't find it! I sat on my bed and let the frustration take over. Soon the tears were running through my face. I just need someone to rely on.

Before I could stop myself, I sent him a message. We were friends, right? Friends can text each other. Ten, fifteen minutes later and he still didn't answer. UGHHH, what's taking him so long? You know what? I'm calling him. If friends can text, they sure can call!
