Disclaimer and A/N: Here's another chapter! It's finally starting to get into the story more. Lots more to come! I do not own The Vampire Diaries, or any of it's characters.
Annalice's POV
My nerves were acting up again before the party. I knew it would be fun, but I was just so worried I would embarrass myself.
I put on a shortish, light green dress that complimented my red hair perfectly. I found some adorable gold flats, and I was set to go. I found their house in about 20 minutes. It was right on beach. It was a beautiful, huge house. They were so lucky to have this place. I parked and went to the front door. My heart was beating like a hummingbirds wings.
I knocked a few times and a girl with blonde hair, and an accent opened the door, "Hello. You must be Annalice. I'm Rebekah."
Rebekah also seemed very nice, "Yes I am. Nice to meet you."
She led me inside. The inside was even more beautiful than the outside. It looked even bigger. There were about 10 rooms. It was almost like a mansion.
The party was in the back. There weren't too many people, about 10 maybe 20. Rebekah introduced me to the other people in the house. I saw Elena and Caroline and they said hi. I met Matt, and a very muscular nice boy named Damon. I found out later that he was Elena's boyfriend.
We all seemed to get along well. The time seemed to fly by. It started to get dark and some people left, but I stayed and talked.
"So where did you guys come from?" I asked Damon, Elena, and Rebekah.
"We're all from Mystic Falls, Virginia. It's a very small town." Elena told me.
"That's awesome. I'm from here. Me and my brother Joey have lived in California for most of our lives."
"So Patrova, that's an interesting last name. Very pretty. Is it Italian?" Damon asked me, and Elena gave him a look.
"I think so, I'm actually an orphan. My parents gave me up when I was very young, same with my brother. We met in the same church orphanage, and became best friends. He's been with me since we were very young. We've just never left each other's side." I smiled. Joey really did mean everything to me.
Damon gave me an odd smirk. He really was an interesting guy. I didn't know what to think of him.
We continued our conversation until something seemed to distract them.
Caroline frantically came over to us, she started whispering to Elena. I didn't mean to but I could hear one word that they said. Klaus.
I turned around and saw a man grabbing a drink from the table. The man was strangely intriguing. He was very tall, had very blonde hair, and was just in general very beautiful. I couldn't stop staring. I think he caught me staring, because he started to walk over here, and I awkwardly looked away so I didn't seem weird.
I took a big sip of my beer, and when I was finished Klaus was standing next to me. I jumped.
He seemed even more beautiful up close. My heart jumped when he started to speak to me, "I couldn't help notice you staring at me from across the room." He gave me a smile that made me stop breathing. I didn't really know what was going on.
I laughed, "I'm so sorry. My friends just noticed you and I kind of..," I started to mumble. I was just making a fool out of myself. So I stopped, "I'm sorry. I tend to get really nervous around people. My names Annalice." I took a deep breath and smiled.
"That's fine. Nice to meet you Annalice, I'm Klaus. So you're friends with the owners of this house?"
"Yes. I just met them the other day. Caroline, Elena, and I do cheer together."
I looked into Klaus' eyes and saw them sparkle. My whole body tingled. He just looked at me for a while, and I was just frozen.
"I'm so sorry Annalice, but I have to go talk to your friends in private. See you around."
Before I could say goodbye he left.
