Luckly the rest of my classess occured without incident. However, the biggest challenge was about to come; lunch. I made it to the lunch room and gave it a quick scan. The one consistant is that sitting at the wrong luch table could be social suicide. The lunch room was just as I expect. There was a table for jokes, stoners, for geeks, glee/band, the gothes, the eating disorders, and the in crowd. They were easy spot with Damon positioned right in the middle of them.
"Hey Blondie come sit over here." Damon beckoned me from a cross the room with a little wave.
I may not have warmed up to Damon, but an idoit I was not. Once I got closer I noticed that the little group had expanded. "Blondie this is Meridith, Laxi, Jermey, and Mason."
I mainly listebed as the little group chatted. I had almost completely zoned out when an arguement broke out. "Hey Sexy Beck's long time no see." Damon shouted at a passing girl.
"Go to Hell Salvadork." Was the response of the girl who's name I assumed was Rekah. She was obviously British with long blond hair. She was a very pretty girl, and she was impecably dressed.
"Who's that?"
"That is Rebkah Mikelason. Her and the rest of her family moved here from England. Her twin brother Kol goes here as well. She has two older brothers that rent apartments in town and one that goes to the university that still lives with them. They are totally are totally loaded. They kind of keep to themselves." Bonnie finished her voice taking a sympathetic turn
"That because they are all weirdo's." Mason added. " I mean who wouldn't be living up in that house."
"What's wrong with their house?" I couldn't stop myself from asking. My curiosity was peaked
"See what you started Mason." This time it was Meredith as she playfully slapped Mason.
"What Caroline's new, she doesn't know the story." Mason defended himself. "The Flemming house is haunted. Isoble Flemming disappeared one night around twenty years ago. I mean disappeared. They haven't found a trace of her since."
"Gawh Mason if you are going to tell a story, tell it right." Damon, and his big mouth interrupted.
"What is the story then Damon?" Izzy sort for Isobel. Thats what Ric has called me there had to be a connection.
"Isobel Flemming..." Damon didn't get a chance to finish because of the bell. "Sorry Blondie you are going to have to wait for the rest of the story." It was to bad. For the first time I wanted to hear what Damon had to say.
I decided to walk home. I was suppose to call Steven, but I wasn't ready to be alone with him. Plus this would give me a chance to explore this one horse town. I had just made it out of the parking lot when the rain came. I stood under a tree and was about to call for a ride when a care pulled up in front of me.
"Do you need a ride?" A distanctively British and female voice called out to me.
"Sure," with the rate the rain was coming down I didn't need to be asked twice. "Thanks."
"I thought all you fouders kids traveled together, like a hunting pack." I could tell that she meant it as a joke but it was over my head. We drove in silence for a bit. Rebkah was in my history class, and today we were paired as partners. "Got any plans for the rest of the afternoon?"
"Not really." The truth was the only plans that I had was to lock myself up in my room listening to music.
"Would you like to come over for a bit?" Her question shocked, but I said yes anyway.
"Dad, hey I just wanted to see if it would be okay if I went to a friends house afterschool? No dad it's not Elena; its Rebkah Mikelson. I make sure that I am home in time for dinner." I hung up my cell and got out of the car.
Rebkah's house was, if it could be called a house, was hugh, and my entire room could fit into her closet. "You have a really nice house."
"Thanks. We are a big brood. Sometimes we need to get away from each other. Ans please call me Becca" Becca, Kol, and I were seated in the entertainment room. "So tell me what was it like at the "Counsel" table?"
I was confused. "The "Counsel" table?"
"Oe, look at that Becca she doesn't know." Kol laughed good heartdly. "I thought you said her last name was Forbes
"It is, she's new." The two of them talked like I wasn't in the room. "The "Counsel" as they like to call themselves are all decedents from the founding families. You have Salvitore, Gilbert, Lockwood, Fell, and now they have themselves a Forbes. Their little group is complete.
"You forgot that Matt, Bonnie, and Lexi sit there." I responded smuggly.
The two of the laughed. A laugh that insinuated that there was information that I should know. "Matt only gets to sit there because he once dated the high queen herself Elena, Lexi has been dating Matt since the start of the year, and poor little Bonnie is their goffer. You really have to watch her it tragic. If they need a coffee she gets it, if they need a paper done she does it, to be honest its really anything that they want."
Thinking back I could see how they were right about Bonnie. She did carry Elena's books, and got up a few times to get Damon more food. "Well I want nothing to do with their little group."
"Thats the spirit." Kol, cheered his drink with mine. We spent the rest of the afternoon simply hanging out. I really liked Becca and Kol, and they both insisted that I come over and meet the rest of the family. I was almost sorry when it was time to go.
