Chapter 9

Mystic Falls, 2010

As I got closer to the porch of my old house, my knees began to shake.

Memories of Jenna flooded through my head.

I was upset about John's death too, but we were never really close.

Jenna was more than an aunt to me.

She was my best friend.

I shakily climbed up the porch stairs and stopped in front of the door.

I took a deep breath and knocked.

The door opened revealing Elena.

None of us said anything.

We just embraced each other as tightly as possible.

"I'm so glad you're here." she said as we pulled away.

I sighed. "Yeah, I just wish it was for a happy occasion."

"Me too. Let's go inside."

I nodded, she grabbed one of my bags and we walked inside.

"Klara!" I heard my brother say from the top of the stairs.

I looked up as he ran to me. "Jeremy!"

He reached me and we hugged.

"I missed you so much."

"I missed you too, Jer." I stated as we pulled away.

It was then that I realized the presence of two guys.

One of them had dark brown hair and captivating forest green eyes.

The other one black hair and the most piercing blue eyes.

"Guys, this is my sister, Klara." Elena introduced.

The green eyed guy stepped forward and offered me his hand. "I'm Stefan."

Oh, so this is Elena's vampire boyfriend.

I must say he's quite handsome.

I took his hand and shook it. "Nice to meet you, Stefan. I've heard a lot about you."

He smiled weakly. "And I've heard a lot about you too."

Then, the other guy came. "I'm Damon."

I could tell that he was more dangerous than Stefan.

And he was hot too.

"Nice to meet you."

He nodded and went back to Stefan's side.

"She reminds me more of Katherine than Elena." I heard Damon mutter to Stefan and I rolled my eyes.

"So," I spoke up, "When is Jenna's funeral?"

"Tomorrow morning." My twin replied, her voice filled with pain.

I sighed. "I'm gonna go to my room."

They nodded and I grabbed my bags before going upstairs.

As I walked through the hallway, I passed Jenna's room and stopped.

I opened the door and walked inside.

Klaus didn't have the right to kill her.

Elena told me that Jenna was dating her history teacher.

She should've been allowed to marry, have kids, and just have a normal life.

But Klaus took that away from her.

I wonder where he is, but at the same time I don't wanna think about him because he just reminds me of Kol.

My heart ached as I thought of him.

I shook my head to myself and got out of Jenna's room, and went to mine.


The next morning, I went to the cemetery with Elena, Jeremy, Stefan, Damon, Bonnie, Caroline and Alaric.

I understood why Jenna was dating Alaric.

He was a nice guy.

Elena and I were holding two roses both as we all looked at Jenna's grave.

I placed a rose on Jenna's grave and then, I went to my parents' grave.

I cried and put the other rose on the ground.

I felt someone wrapping their arms around my waist and I looked to the side to see Caroline looking sympathetically at me.

I sniffled and leaned into her.
