Heyy :) Anyway here's the next chapter, thanks to everyone who read my story and reviewed the last chapter, it made me so happy :) xx x Anyway, here's the next chapter...

Chapter thirteen;

I woke up sweating, it was four a.m. Damon's story didn't give me very nice dreams, I couldn't stand the thought of someone stabbing Damon, especially when he was only six years old. The same age as my younger brother,Ross. It's horrible that in those days since men thought they were better than women they could get away with murder, and I mean it literally.

Poor Damon had just lost his mother, I would have thought his father would have been a bit upset, but there was only anger, and he took it all out on Damon. He drove it into him that Salvatore's don't cry and Damon's still saying it five hundred years later. I didn't know if Stefan ever cried but It wasn't likely.

I had thought my father was bad, which he was, but only when he turned into an alcoholic after Holly, his ex-wife left, she took Ross with her and he kind of fell apart, he favoured Ross. Damon and I have something in common there.

Compared to Giuseppe Salvatore my father would look so innocent and kind, like he wouldn't hurt a thing. Which he wouldn't when he was sober, which was very rarely. He lost his job because he was so hungover, he didn't seem to care that much about me, we were never close. I was just some kid. He says I was just dumped on him when Mum ran away, so he had no choice. If he could have he said he wouldn have left Mum and me and probably never got in any contact with me. It hurt so much when he said that to my face, nobody wanted me, it made me feel so repulsive and like something was wrong with me.

He loved Ross since he was in love with Holly, he wanted a kid with her, he always wanted a son. During that time I was just left by myself, he was too busy with his new son. I wasn't jealous of Ross, I loved him, he was my little brother. I just felt a bit left out, that I wasn't part of the family.

I didn't agree with parents picking favourites, it isn't right. Damon didn't do a thing wrong, anyone would start crying over their mother and all of a sudden his father hates him and wants to get rid of him, it's disgusting.

I was wide awake now and I couldn't get back to sleep, I read a bit of my book, it was hard to concentrate on what I was reading.

I woke up to a crow cawing outside my window. I had fallen asleep reading and I was still holding the book.

I put it on my beside table and went over to the window, I drew back the curtains. The biggest crow I had ever seen was sitting on the window sill, it's feathers were so dark and black, they looked so soft and silky. It dark eyes staring at me, it was Damon. I opened the window and let him fly in.

He changed back into human form and sat down on the bed, he looked much better than last night.

"How are you today?" I asked sitting down next to him and holding his hand.

"I'm fine." he said grinning his signature smile. I didn't know if he was just putting it on or if he really was okay, he was very convincing if he was pretending.

I nodded and smiled at him, his eyes looked more calm, there seemed to be less coldness in them. I put my head on his shoulder.

"I'm happy you're okay." he tensed a little, he pushed my head off his shoulder.

"Last night never happened okay?"

I nodded, it was obvious he was embarrassed, he hadn't experienced the emotions he felt last night for hundreds of years, of course he had broke down.

He stood up and looked down at me. "If anyone ever finds out about it, you won't like what's coming."

"Was that a threat?" I asked trying not to smirk.

He came over to me and and put his hands on my shoulders. "Yes, Sophie." he whispered, his voice sounded like velvet.

I put my arms around his neck and reached up to kiss him passionately, his soft lips crushing mine, he was so strong.

His hand on the back of my leg, I shivered at his touch on my bare skin. I was trying to see if I could feel his mind again, the barrier was still there.

We walked over to the bed still kissing , and we sat down. The barrier was coming away a little. He took off his jacket and threw it on the floor, then he took off his shirt. He looked like he was sculpted by an angel, he was beautiful. He looked like some kind of god.

I could see into his mind now, it wasn't as sad, there was some happiness but it was hard to see. I suddenly saw a small boy chained to a boulder, I tried to get to him, the barrier suddenly crashed down blocking everything.

I pulled back a little and looked at him he was frowning, I giggled and then he was beaming, before I could speak his lips were pressing against mine again.

The phone rang later on that day, it was Elena. She said that we would be able to go to Caroline's House next week, she was so excited.

"Who was that?" said Damon, he was sitting at the table in his underwear.

"Just Elena." I said getting a chocolate bar out the fridge.

"What did she want?" he asked taking a bite of the square I gave to him, I sat on his lap.

"Nothing really, she just rang to say hello." I hoped he couldn't sense that I was lying.

"Hmm, sure." he murmered kissing my neck, I shivered from the feel of his cool breath.

I pushed him away lightly, a grin stuck on my face. "Go and get dressed, in case someone comes."

He looked at me smirking. "Why would that be so bad?"

I got up off his lap. "Go on."

He went up to my room. I went into the hall and looked in the mirror, my auburn hair was sticking up, my indigo eyes were sparkling under wisps of hair that were falling in my face. My hair looked terrible, like I had just been dragged through a bush back wards. I gave it a quick brush, it was so knotty.

Damon crept up on me and tapped me on the shoulder, I screamed and threw the brush at him.

"Damon!" I shouted my heart was thumping in my chest, it was so loud.

He was laughing hysterically. "Your face was pricless!"

I gave him a playful puch on the arm. "That wasn't funny." my lips were twitching.

"Okay!" I said giggling. "It was a little funny."

We spent the rest of the day just watching horror movies, of course I screamed at almost everything that jumped out, Damon cracking up everytime I jumped a mile and had a mini-heart attack.

I stood outside Caroline's back door with Bonnie, Elena and Meredith. I was so afraid that we would get caught, that maybe someone would be home, that someone would see us breaking in, It felt so wrong.

Bonnie was just as scared, she was gripping onto my hand, hers was all sweaty from fear.

"Hurry up." whispered Bonnie, looking around frantically.

"Yeah come on, hurry up before somebody comes." I hissed.

"Come on Meredith!" said Bonnie, she was squeezing my hand so hard she was probably cutting off the circulation.

"There." said Meredith, the key was finally in the right lock, she turned the handle. "We're in."

I felt so nervous I was squeezing Bonnie hand back, I was also excited for Elena, that we were in, that we would get her journal back.

"Are you sure they're not in? Elena, what if they come back early? Why couldn't we do this in the daytime, at least?"

"Yeah, maybe you got it wrong, Elena. There could be someone inside, what if we get caught, we'll get into so much trouble, they will call the police and..." Elena interupted me, I was so scared that we would get put in jail.

"Sophie!" she hissed at me. "You stop too Bonnie! Will you get inside? We've been through all of this. The maid's always here in the daytime. And they won't be back early tonight unless somebody gets sick at Chez Louis. Now come on!"

I just looked at Bonnie, her red curls were falling into her eyes, she pushed them away with a shaky hand. I turned and looked at the big house, it was in darkness so maybe we would get lucky and they reallly weren't in and they hopefully wouldn't come home soon.

"Nobody would dare get sick at birthday dinner." said Meredith, she put her hand on my shoulder trying to comfort me and she looked at Bonnie and smiled. "We're safe."

"If they've got enough money to go to expensive restauraunts, you'd think they could afford to leave a few lights on." said Bonnie, I almost started laughing.

My stomach was aching, I think it was the fear of getting caught, it was so sore. I clutched my stomach groaing, a sharp pain shot through my stomach. I moaned in pain.

The three girls looked at me worried.

"I'll stay here with Sophie." said Bonnie quickly. "You two go on in."

Meredith shook her head. "Stop messing around and get in here." she said pulling us both in by the arm.

We crept into the house, it felt wrong. I felt like a criminal. My pulse was racing, every little noise made me paranoid, every squeak as we went up the stairs, the pain was going now but it still there.

Everytime I heard I car go by, I held my breath, ready to run. My palms were sweating, my heart was so loud I wondered if everyone else could hear it.

"It's got to be in her bedroom." said Elena, breaking the silence.

I nodded in agreement. "Definitley, we should search there first." my voice was hoarse.

I took my torch out of my pocket careful not to shine it near the window, people across the road might see.

We all just stood there, we were so still. I looked around, it could be anywhere. I didn't want to go through all her things, I would hate that if someone did that to me, It just didn't feel right.

"It could be anywhere." I whispered everyone else seemed to agree.

"Maybe we should just go home." said Bonnie quietly.

I nodded. "Good idea." Elena and Meredith didn't say anything, I wondered if they agreed.

"We have to try. At least try." said Elena in a small voice, she went over and opened a door full of underwear, I just stood there watching here as she rumaged through it.

"It's not that hard." she said. "What we need to do is divide up the room and then search everything in our section, every drawer, every piece of furniture, every object big enough to hide a diary in."

I sighed. "That could take forever, what if they come home?" Nobody answered Elena just glared at me and went over to a closet.

I took a deep breath and went over to a to a chest of drawers in the corner , I opened up the top drawer, there were pages and pages of paper and a small book at the back. I suddenly felt a flicker of hope, I took it out carefully, I opened it holding my breath.

It was just a planner that Caroline had wrote important dates and everyone's birthday in, she even had mine which is a mystery because not many people knew. I couldn't believe I was going to be eighteen in January, just two more months until freedom.

There was a big circle around Founders' Day. It said: Payback time (Elena and Stefan.)

I rolled my eyes and put the planner back in the drawer, It was frustrating, wondering where it could be.

I opened the drawer underneath, there were hair accessories, a hairbrush, tissues, deodrant and... I quickly closed the drawer. I hated looking through peoples belongings, It was just so nosey.

A small sheet of paper fell out when I had quickly closed it. She had wrote Damon Smith over and over with hearts all around his name. I think Caroline had a bit too much of a crush on Damon Salvatore, I suddenly felt a bit jealous. I put the paper back in the drawer carefully, I made sure it was exactly where it was before , she couldn't notice that we had been here.

The bottom drawer was the biggest, I crossed my fingers. Hopefully it would be in here. I opened it as quietly as I could and shone my torch into it, it was just full of clothes, mostly designer jeans that looked gorgeous on her model like body, I rumaged through them, she could have hid it somewhere else. It wasn't there, I sighed and closed the drawer. I was almost ready to give up.

I looked over to the other girls, Elena was standing on a chair looking on top of the wardrobe and Meredith was sitting on the floor looking at stuffed animals that she had found in a chest. She looking at them closely, running her fingers along them, making sure Caroline hadn't cut them open and stuffed the diary inside.

She picked up a fluffy poodle, she just looked at it.

"I gave this to her." she whispered. "I think for her tenth birthday. I thought she'd thrown it away."

Meredith just looked down at the poodle, I felt sorry for her, they had all been friends and a boy had come between them.

"I tried to make up with her." said Elena quietly. " I did Meredith, at the haunted house. But she as good told me she would never forgive me for taking Stefan from her. I wish things could be different, but she won't let them be."

"So now it's war." said Meredith, I nodded in agreement. I didn't like Caroline, I never had.

"So now it's war." Elena agreed, she went back to her search.

I looked through a shoebox, I found under a small table. It was just full of postcards and souvenirs from recent holidays. I was getting so frustrated, why could it be. I threw the box back under the table, the lid came off emptying the contents everywhere.

The three girls just looked over glaring at me. I gave them an apologetic smile and frantically starting picking everything up, what if she had it in some kind of special order?

I was still paranoid that they were going to come home, I walked over to a beside table and looked inside the small cupboard underneath, it was useless, it musn't even be in her room.

"It's no use," said Meredith, she put her hand underneath Caroline's matteress, feeling around to see if it was there.

"She must have hidden it...wait. There's something here. I can feel a corner."

I looked over, I didn't want to get my hopes up yet, just in case it wasn't it. I crossed my fingers. Elena and Bonnie were just staring over, they looked hopeful.

"I've got it. Elena it's a diary!"

I let out a breath that I didn't realise I was holding, my tense body relaxed, I was so relieved. Stefan would be okay after all. I was smiling so hard I thought my face would crack.

Suddenly Meredith's smile on her face vanished. "It's a diary. But it's green, not blue. It's the wrong one!"

All the happiness and relief I had just felt came crashing down, I was so disappointed, why was life so annoying? Caroline must keep a diary too, I would love to read it, to see what she thought of everyone. It was probably mostly gossip about people.

"What?" said Elena grabbing the diary out Meredith's hands, she shone her torch on it, as if she was trying to turn it blue, to make it be hers.

"It's Caroline's" Elena pointed out, she looked so annoyed, I didn't know what she would have in mind to do next. Hopefully no more breaking in houses, then I suddenly had an idea, if we looked inside Caroline's diary she might have written where she put it or something.

"Look inside." I whispered, Bonnie just stared at me but then she seemed to realise why we should open it.

"There might be clues." said Elena, she looked down at the emerald green book and took a deep breath.

"It's only fair." said Meredith, looking at the diary closely.

Bonnie took the diary out of Elena's hands and opened it.

I scanned the pages, I couldn't really see anything important. I was about to give up but Elena quickly whispered.

"Wait, what's that?" she pointed to her name.

Bonnie read over it quickly, and then she made a noise of disgust.

"What?" I asked curious, I wanted to know what Caroline had wrote.

"Listen to this." she said reading out a bit of the journal. " 'Elena's the most selfish person I've ever known. Everyone thinks she's so together, but it's really just coldness. It's sickening the way people suck up to her, never realising that she doesn't give a damn about anyone or anything except Elena.' "

"Such a bitch!" I whispered, I felt a little mean but some of the things Caroline wrote were true.

"Caroline says that? She should talk!" said Elena, her face going red. She didn't know what else to say.

"Go on, there's more." said Meredith to Bonnie.

" 'Bonnie's almost as bad these days.'" said Bonnie, she sounded offended. " 'Always trying to make herself important. The newest thing is pretending she's psychic so people will pay attention to her. If she was really psychic she'd figure out that Elena is just using her.' "

Everyone was silent, no one knowing what to say. I didn't agree with that one, they were really friends.

"Is that all?" said Elena.

"No, there's a bit about Meredith and Sophie."

" 'Meredith doesn't do anything to stop it. In fact, Meredith doesn't do anything; she just watches. It's as if she can't act; she can only react to things. Besides, I've heard my parents talking about her family- no wonder she never mentions them."

"What is that supposed to mean?" asked Bonnie.

I didn't really know Meredith's family, did they have some kind of big secret?

Meredith was standing still, after a while she spoke firmly. "It doesn't matter. Keep on looking, Bonnie, for something about Elena's diary."

"Here's the bit about Sophie." she said looking at me, I took a deep breath, I was dreading what she had to say about me.

" 'Sophie doesn't even know half the story and she still goes around like she knows everything, she won't even barely speak to me. I wonder what Elena had said about me. I wanted to be friends with her until she turned out just like the rest of them. She was there at Alaric's Party with the hottest boy in the room and even he didn't like her, even he couldn't resist someone else, she's just so boring I suppose. I heard a rumour somewhere that she tried to commit suicide, she has big problems.' "

I went red, I was so embarrassed. "A rumour." I whispered.

The three girls looked at me, Bonnie smiled and took my hand.

I pulled my hand away. "You shouldn't go round telling other people's business." I whispered.

"We didn't." said Elena, her jewel like eyes staring into mine. "Word got out about the umm...attempt."

I gulped. "Can we just try and find something that would help us to find Elena's diary?" I said changing the subject.

Bonnie nodded quickly and looked back down at the diary.

"Try around the eighteenth of October. That's when it was stolen." said Elena.

Bonnie flicked through the pages but we couldn't find an entry for the eighteenth of October, or many of the days after. There was only a few entries, nothing about the diary.

"Well, that's it then." said Meredith. "This book is useless. Unless we want to blackmail her with it. You know, like we won't show hers if she won't show yours."

I shook my head. "I don't think that's a good idea."

"There's nothing bad about Caroline in here; it's all just complaints about other people. Mostly us. I'll bet Caroline would love to have it read out loud in front of the whole school. It'd make her day."

"So what do we do with it?"

"Put it back," said Elena, she sounded really disappointed, she shone her torch around the room. "We'll just have to keep on pretending we don't know she has my diary, and hope for another chance."

"Yeah, if she knows that we know we won't have a chance of finding it." I said.

"All right." said Bonnie, she looked through the diary again, snorting at things. "Will you listen to this!" she cried. I turned to look at her curious to see what she had found.

"There isn't time." said Elena, she opened her mouth to say more.

"A car." said Meredith.

My heart started racing out of control, I was panicking. I couldn't speak. Bonnie was kneeling down her the ground her mouth open.

I was so scared, we were going to get caught. I couldn't move, I was paralysed with fear.

"Go! Go on," said Elena grabbing the diary out of Bonnie's hands. "Turn the torches off and get out the back door."

Meredith was pushing us trying to get us moving, I just looked at Bonnie, her face was probably a reflection of mine, it had fear written all over it.

A sharp pain shot through my stomach. I clutched my stomach, I knelt down on the ground. Bonnie just looked at me, her eyes wide.

"Come on!" she hissed grabbing my hand.

"I can't." I whispered, another pain shot through my stomach.

"You have to!" she said pulling me up, and dragging me down the stairs.

We ran out the back door and quickly crouched down behind a gate.

"I'm going to be sick." I murmered, I went over to the hedgerow. Yuck! I hadn't been sick since I was about five.

I went back over to the gate.

"Where's Elena?" I whispered, making Bonnie jump.

"I don't know. I think she was caught."

I looked at her my eyes wide, I knew this was a bad idea, it was obvious that someone was going to get caught.

A sudden wave of dizziness washed over me, I crouched down beside the girls.

"Are you okay?" asked Meredith. "You're really pale."

"Yeah, I'm fine now." I said smiling, I felt sick again.

After about half an hour of waiting and me vomititng in the bushes, Elena came.

"What took you so long?" Bonnie whispered. "We thought you were caught!"

"I almost was. I had to stay until it was safe." she said glancing at me. "Let's go home, There's nothing more we can do." she whispered.

A huge crow flew across our head screeching, I looked up, its dark eyes looking down at me. I smiled.

They dropped me off at my house, I was relieved to be home. I felt so sick, I thought we were going to get caught.

I ran up the stairs and into the bathroom, after a few minutes of more vomiting, I finally stopped, I was feeling a bit better. Actually I was starving.

I splashed cold water over my face and rinsed out my mouth, I looked horrible. I was so pale, my skin looked sickly.

I went downstairs and looked in the fridge, I really wanted chocolate. I found a big bar and ate it in a few minutes, it was lovely.

I took out another bar, If I kept eating more I was going to make myself sick. I bit into the bar, it was so creamy, it melted in my mouth.

Eight chocolate bars later and I was sitting on the sofa, I had never ate that much chocolate in my life.

I clambered up to bed a few hours later, Damon hadn't came tonight. I was a bit disappointed. I put in my earphones and listened to my ipod as I drifted off to sleep.

I was walking in a meadow, there was bird singing a familiar song, but I couldn't think what it was, as I stood there gazing at the little sparrows on the oak tree singing theie song a big crow about the size of a house swooped down and grabbed me with it's claws. I started screaming, it looked at me with it's black eyes, it was Damon. I relaxed and he put me on his back, we were flying around, all of a sudden I fell off, I went tumbling down, but I was laughing hysterically, I was screaming in delight! I fell down a black hole.

Then I was at home standing at the bottom of the stairs and Gran was there, her blue eyes sparkling underneath her white hair, she was smiling.

I was so pleased to see her, she was dressed in a white dress and strange black shoes that had buckles that curled up her legs like snakes.

I stepped forward to try and hug her. "Gran!" I exclaimed.

The smile went from her face, her eyes went strange. "No." her voice was weird it was different. "It's coming, the time for blood to shed is coming! It needs to go! It's evil! Take it out! Take it out! Take it out! Take it out!" she screamed at me.

I stood there confused, I was so scared, then she blew away, like sand, small particles of Gran flying out the door.

Then I was in a small room, it smelt old and musty. There was a small crack in a boarded up window. I tried to get up but I could I was stuck to the floor, I couldn't even turn my head.

I saw someone's feet approach me, the person crouched down and looked at me, it was Damon.

He looked right into my eyes, his pupils were getting bigger and bigger, then he eyes went red, no pupil, iris or white on his eye. There was just pure red.

I screamed a deafening scream, he just stared at me cocking his head. He smiled an evil smile.

"Get rid of it!" he roared as loud as he could, his face going purple, then it turned black. "It's your fault! All because of you! No one wants you!" he bellowed.

He grabbed a unconscious woman and threw her at me, then he disappeared, he melted into a pile of jelly, it smelt awful, it was horrible.

The woman's neck was bleeding. I stared at it, the blood fascinated me, it smelt so good. I leant towards it, I couldn't understand why it smelt so nice. I put my lips up to the warm liquid, I began to suck, the warm, coppery drink flowing into my mouth.

Then I heard a wailing sound, it was so loud. I put my hands over my ears, screeching.

Suddenly a woman with auburn hair and indigo eyes approached me, her skin was so pale, her eyes were flashing different colours.

She came towards me and whispered in my ear "Blood is coming. You need to share it with someone dark-haired, it is vital you do this. You have to do this, do not listen to a dark-haired Salvatore, do not listen to him. It needs to happen, to carry on the power. It needs to happen! Do you hear me, if this doesn't happen there will be a mortal supposed to be immortal. Make him immortal!."

"Salvatore sangue é in arrivo!"

I didn't have a clue what she was on about, it was so confusing. A mortal supposed to be immortal. The last bit I didn't understand, it was in a different language

"I don't understand!" I said, confused.

"Salvatore sangue é in arrivo !"

"Please, speak english! I don't understand!"

"Salvatore sangue é in arrivo !"

"Please!"

"I will explain it in your brain, you will remember to repeat what I said."

I nodded very confused. "Okay."

"Say I will remember, help me to remember."

"I will remember help me to remember." I said, my throat dry.

Then she came towards me, her hands around my neck.

"Sorry, sweetheart. Goodbye."

She cracked my neck, I screamed in pain, they was a big dog coming ready to rip my throat out, I screamed at loud as I could, his teeth on my throat... "Mortal supposed to be immortal." the dog whispered in my ear, his voice was so husky.

I sat up in bed screaming, my breathing was fast, I was sweating.

I took a deep breath it was just a dream, I didn't need to worry. I closed my eyes trying to relax, what a weird dream. What did it mean? Salvatore blood is coming! It had something to do with Damon and Stefan because of the Salvatore bit.

I couldn't believe that was a dream, it had felt so real, like I was really there. It was a nightmare.

I felt sick, I ran into the bathroom. It was horrible, I must have some kind of virus.

I sat back on the bed, I felt so tired, weird dreams, I was getting sick so much, I was craving food...Oh no!

I closed my eyes, it couldn't be true, no way. It wasn't possible. How?

I quickly got dressed and walked down to the chemist, I was in a daze I forgot to take my change, I just rushed out the shop.

I went up to the bathroom. Two pink lines appeared, my stomach felt weird, it couldn't be true. I put my head in my hands, I felt like crying, my life was falling apart.

I threw the test on the toilet seat , and sat down on the bed. I felt so strange, I couldn't think straight. This couldn't be happening to me, no way.

It wasn't possible, I kept thinking the same thing over and over. It wasn't possible. It wasn't possible.

"Are you okay?" asked a voice, it was Damon, he was sitting by the window, a grin on his face. He came over and put his hands on my cheeks.

I nodded and I gulped, looking at a dark-haired beauty. "Uh...yeah." I said putting my hand over my mouth, I ran into the bathroom.

"Eww...gross!" said Damon smiling a cocky smile as I came out of the bathroom, I sat down on the bed staring at him.

"What?" he asked laughing. "Why the long face all of a sudden, lighten up a bit."

"Damon, I'm pregnant."
