Founder's Day
October 29, 2013
It was the Founders Day again. Another year that she had to participate in the Annually event. Her Aunt Jenna kept telling her that it was important to her Mother and that it would mean the world to her if she knew her Daughter participated in it as well.
Except that her Mother wasn't dead. Elena had found out that her Mother was alive and that she was a Vampire who really didn't want to have much to do with her own Daughter's life. So she really wouldn't care if Elena participated in the Event or not. She wasn't coming to it, and she never would. Her Mother was a Vampire named Isobel and she stayed out of Elena's life as much as possible because she didn't want anything to do with her.
This had really crushed Elena. For years she had dreams about her Mother, her real Mother and what she might be like. But the first meeting with her hadn't been at all what Elena was expecting. And there was rumor that her real Father could still be alive and she suspected it was Alaric, the man who was currently seeing her Aunt. Elena didn't want to find out if he really was her Dad. Because what if he didn't want to have anything to do with her either? I mean what can I say to him, Elena thought while undoing her hot rollers. Hello Alaric, I think I may be your Daughter. Know Isobel? Well, I'm her Daughter. I think we need to go get tested because I know you slept with her. No, I can't do that. Elena decided. I would look very dumb.
Caroline then stepped in the room along with Bonnie. They were both participating in the Event and when they always chatted, Elena felt left out. They didn't even bother to include her. I guess I deserve it by always being the one who always got the guys. Can I help it Guys like me and want to be with me? No, I can't . She couldn't let them see how much this upset her. How close she was coming to tears. She can't cry in front of them! It would mess her makeup up! Just be happy Elena, she thought. Your with Damon Salvatore now, and he makes you feel like the most special girl in the world. He won't even look at Caroline or Bonnie.
Elena didn't know when things got so complicated between her and her friends. Aunt Jenna always said that when friends got older sometimes things just changed and you couldn't always be friends forever. Both her and Bonnie were still friends, but lately that seemed to be changing. She kept spending more and more time with Caroline. Spending the night with her and canceling plans with Elena. And going shopping with Caroline. Finally, hearing enough of their giggling, Elena spun around her curls bouncing as she did "Bonnie, can I talk to you outside the door for a minute?"
Caroline smirked and then muttered to her friend Bonnie. "Uh, oh. Better avoid the wrath of Elena. No telling what she might do".
