Chapter 11: Mystic Falls
Songs: Paralyzer by Finger Eleven, New Moon Rising by Wolfmother, Buttons by Pussycat Dolls
I had finally talked Damon into letting me go to his old town. The car ride would be a fair distance, according to Damon. I was a bit worried about how everyone would perceive me when I showed up with Damon, but Damon assured me that everything would be fine.
The car ride was pretty boring. I sunk into the passenger's seat of the Ferrari and closed my eyes.
You can open your eyes if you want. We're in Mystic Falls, Damon told me.
My eyes flickered open and I looked around me. The town was small and quiet. Damon looked over at me and grinned. He was wearing sunglasses and I chuckled.
"Why do you have those things on?" It wasn't that bright outside.
"I just feel like it," Damon explained.
"Are we almost to the boarding house?" I was getting grumpy and impatient.
"We're only a few minutes away. My brother will get a kick out of you when he sees you," Damon said.
"Why's that?" I was confused.
"I told him a bit about you when I called and said I was coming. I normally don't call and announce my presence, though," Damon commented.
"I must have changed you or something," I teased.
"You most certainly have," Damon agreed.
Damon pulled up to the boarding house and we parked on the street. I got out and took in the sight of the boarding house. It was ancient and Damon grinned at me, leading me inside. I heard two people talking as we entered the house and Damon stopped me at the front to walk ahead. Not a minute later did Damon come back and guide me forward.
Two guys stood in what seemed to be the living room. Both had confused expressions on their faces.
"Who is this, Damon?" The older man asked.
"This is…" Damon started to say.
"I'm Lexi Strom and I'm friend of Damon's," I said, looking at Damon.
"I didn't know my brother to have many friends," The younger man said suspiciously.
"I've changed my lifestyle, brother," Damon said with a smirk.
"How long are you staying, Damon?" The older man asked.
"I guess you'll just have to wait and see," Damon said smartly.
Damon grabbed my hand and led me up the stairs. We entered an old room that looked pretty empty. He leaned against the door and folded his arms across his chest. I sighed and looked out the window.
"This will be your room for the time being," Damon said.
"Who were those two downstairs? I know the younger one was Stefan, but who was that other guy?" I was so confused.
"That's Zach. He's a descendant of mine," Damon said with no interest.
"Why are you so angry and mean around them?" I wanted to know more.
"I'll tell you sometime later, but right now I have to go have a talk with my brother. He's extremely curious about you. Promise to stay up here no matter what," Damon insisted.
"I'll stay up here, don't worry," I assured him.
"Lock the door too. Zach might try to talk to you and get some information out of you," Damon informed me.
I sat in the dusty room for a pretty long time. It was so boring and I was on the verge of opening the door when there was a knock.
"Can I talk to you?" It was Stefan's voice.
"No," I hissed.
Damon came in through the window and looked at me with a smirk. He brushed past me and opened the door.
"Why are you bothering my guest, brother?" Damon was blocking Stefan's view of me.
"I only want to talk to her, Damon," Stefan argued.
"But she doesn't want to talk to you," Damon growled.
"You don't know that," Stefan continued.
"Of course I do," Damon countered.
"Why don't you boys take it outside," I suggested.
There was a knock at the front door and Stefan turned his head to the side.
"Go talk to your Elena," Damon permitted his brother.
Damon closed the door and I looked at him. He chuckled and I sighed, sitting down on the old, dusty bed. It was really weird and ancient. Damon walked over to the window and opened it.
"This…was my old room," Damon informed me.
"Why are you letting me use it?" I raised an eyebrow in curiosity.
"I don't need to sleep anywhere. I'm just going to wander around at night. You, on the other hand, need your sleep," Damon explained.
Stefan came back up, but he had a brunette girl at his side. She looked at me curiously and then turned her gaze to Damon. That made me a bit jealous, so I turned on my heel and looked out the window.
"What's her problem?" I heard the Elena girl ask Stefan.
"I'm not sure," Stefan admitted.
Damon shook his head and led me away from the window. I already didn't like Elena. She looked like a bitch, but I could always be wrong. I could tell she was worried and afraid, not just by the way she clung to Stefan.
"I guess it's time I told you the truth about Lexi, brother," Damon said with a sigh.
We all sat down in the living room, even Zach. I leaned into Damon and he wrapped an arm around my shoulder. Stefan and Elena did the same thing. Zach looked confused when he saw Damon and me.
"Why don't you go ahead and tell everyone the basis of your story, Lexi? Just stick to the main points," Damon insisted.
"Well, I met Damon right after this guy I really liked left me. His name was Tristan and Damon came to my town with Tristan's older brother, Edward. Right away I knew they were vampires. It was because Tristan told me before he left. Well, a year went by and I met Edward and Damon. Well, my parents died a day or two later and that's when the fun started. Edward and Damon began to watch over me. I got hurt at Volleyball one day and Damon gave me his blood. That's when Tristan came back. Then, one of my older brother's, Roz, died. We later found out that this guy, who Tristan was working for, Collin, was telling Tristan to kill all these people. Tristan was the one who killed my brother. Collin had several attempts to kidnap me and the latest resulted in me becoming a vampire. Damon saved me from death and turned me into a vampire. Collin had taken too much of my blood. And now we're here. I'm one hundred percent vampire and I like it," I explained with a smile.
"That was more or less an explanation," Damon teased and I punched him in the arm.
"So, you two are…together?" Elena had a hard time saying it.
I nodded with a grin.
All of a sudden, the wind picked up and loud thunder sounded in the distance. I looked at Damon and he grinned. He was the one who was making it storm, but I had to say that I was the one who was controlling the wind.
Elena suddenly got up and pulled her cell phone out of her pocket. As soon as she finished, I looked up at her.
"Bonnie says there's a party going on tonight. Do you guys want to come?" Elena looked at Stefan.
"That sounds fun," I said with a grin.
"Then it seems we're going," Damon said.
"Great!" Elena said and told Bonnie that all of us were going to be there.
I walked out of Damon's room in a red camisole and dark blue jeans. My knee high boots covered over them and Damon grinned. He was dressed in his usual black attire. Stefan was wearing a t-shirt and jeans.
The sky was growing dark and I hopped into Damon's Ferrari. Stefan was driving Elena and I watched how carefully he drove. Damon looked at me and chuckled.
"You're so adorable when you're curious," Damon commented.
"And you're so adorable when you're angry," I retorted with a smirk.
"I noticed you don't like Elena," Damon observed.
"How did you guess?" I asked in a sarcastic tone of voice.
"The way you looked at Elena at the beginning gave it away," Damon informed me.
Damon pulled up to a huge building and I was confused. Stefan pulled up a second later and I could tell he was in a state of shock. Elena and Bonnie soon came out with a blonde girl. She looked all preppy and gave Damon a look that made me think something was going on.
"This is Caroline," Elena introduced.
"And who are you?" Caroline looked like a cheerleader by the way she spoke.
"I'm Lexi Strom," I said with my arms folded across my chest.
"Are you new here or something?" Caroline was watching how I reacted.
"Yeah, I just got here…with Damon," I added, looking at Damon out of the corner of my eye.
"Where are you from?" Caroline was more interested in me now.
"I came here from Oregon," I informed her.
"That sounds like a fun place," Caroline said sarcastically.
"Yeah, it's loads of fun," I said, going along with it.
"Well, I'm going to get back to the party. See you inside," Caroline said and gave Damon a look before going through the front doors.
I turned to Damon and he looked at me innocently.
"I know what happened between you and that whore of a girl. Why the hell didn't you tell me you were with bitches like that one? I don't know if it's just me or this town in full of bitches. The only one I haven't been bothered with has been Bonnie and I haven't even met her yet," I rambled.
"Lexi, you need to relax. We came to a party. You can't be all unhappy and upset the whole night," Damon figured.
"I guess you're right," I agreed and walked inside with Damon.
The party didn't seem like one for high school students, not that I had ever been to a college party. There were so many humans in the room that I had to concentrate on not hurting any of them. Damon hit me in the shoulder a few times and as soon as I started getting annoyed, I turned toward him and growled. Stefan pinched my arm and I sighed heavily. Being a new vampire wasn't a very good thing at this time.
Damon took me outside and I took in the cool air. Suddenly, I saw a figure float by and I could smell something odd. I looked at Damon and he looked in the direction I saw the figure go through. Damon ran quickly and I was on his tail the whole way. The figure was standing in an alley all alone. I took in a deep breath and realized I knew the person. It was someone from a recent dream. The dream was a normal kind that didn't wake me up at night, though. Damon looked at me and I hissed through my teeth. This guy was bad news and Damon knew it.
In a split second, I was right next to the figure and they held my neck choking me to death. The figure grinned and I saw a hint of pointed fangs. Oh shit, this was a vampire not to be reckoned with.
Who do you think it is??? Who do you want it to be lol????
Lexi doesn't like humans lol and I personally think it's funnny...kinda
I'm very sorry for those who like Elena and Caroline. I don't mean any disrespect cause I personally like Elena
Reviews would be awesome!!!!!!!!!
