Trading Places
Chapter 6
Elena sighed as she looked at her new cheerleading uniform. Today was the day of one of the big games and she still didn't feel good enough to be out there but Caroline assured her she was fine. She sighed again and put on her uniform. She hated the way she looked so preppy in it. She missed her tshirt and jeans, but she promised Caroline that she would still try. Well here goes nothing. She thought exiting her room. Katherine was waiting on the other side looking at her up and down as if she approved of the changes in Elena's life.
"You look pretty good in that uniform. How do you feel?"
"I feel like a girl. I hate feeling like a girl. You know this."
Katherine sighed as she went down the stairs and Elena followed her. She just hoped that she wouldn't mess this up. The only thing more embarrassing to her than being a cheerleader was embarrassing herself in front of the whole school. She would just have to wait and see what happened next.
When they got to the game Elena spotted Damon Salvatore in the ctrowd. Their eyes locked and she felt a blush coming on. She had no idea why he affected her this way. He sent her a wave and she sent one back. Caroline elbowed her and they went to their spots to stretch.
"What are you doing?" Caroline asked extending her leg over her head.
Sometimes it was cringe worthy how flexiable Caroline was.
"Well it looks as if i'm stretching."
"Not that. I mean with Damon Salvatore."
"I barely know the guy Caroline. Plus he's funny and charming in a way."
"Damon Salvatore is nothing but trouble Elena. If you knew what was good for you, you would stay away from him."
"What are you going to do about it?" she said.
"I made you Elena Gilbert and I can destroy you too. Never forget that. Now come on. We have a game to cheer for."
Elena exhaled as she sent one last glance at Damon before following Caroline.
