~Flashback~
"Well, What if I don't want a friend?" I asked him
"But you already have so many, what' one more?" he asked as he came a little closer.
~End Flashback~
"Awe come on, don't tell me you don't want another friend," he said taking another step towards me
"Well, if you're going to be my friend, I should at least know your name." I told him
"Damon, Damon Smith." he said
"Hello Damon, I'm Em-"
"Emily Gilbert, I know, the whole school knows."
"Mmm... well, aren't I little Miss Popular." I said rolling my eyes
"I guess you are." He said laughing
"So are you a junior ?" I asked
"No, I'm a senior." he said
I don't know how long we talked but all of a sudden he asked me
"Why were you crying?"
"Oh, you saw that..." I said quietly
he nodded
"You didn't hear why I moved back?" I asked him
"No only rumors, but I'd rather have the true story," he said
"Well, I was at a friends party, and when I came home, I found my family dead, The only things I have left from Chicago are the things that we're in my backpack at the time, the things my friends send me, and memories."
"Oh," he said
At that moment, I noticed how close together we were,
Just then Tyler and Dick burst threw the gym door yelling
"Gilbert you're on the team along with," they paused when they saw me sitting next to Damon.
"Us." Dick finished
"What the hell Gilbert?" Tyler said
I raised my eyebrows
"You won't let either one of us talk to you without knocking us out!"
Damon looked at me and then back at Tyler and Dick
"But, you'll let him sit next to you for how many hours?!"
"Tyler," I started "Damon didn't wrap his arms around me or harass me," I said glaring at him "And Dick you're just as bad as he is."
"Fine, see you in class," Tyler said coldly
Before they walked out Dick turned around and said
"What would Matt say, when we tell him that you were hanging out with another guy?" he said sneering
"Yeah, I wonder what would happen." Tyler said also sneering
"Um you guys do know that Matt and I aren't going out, I said that so you'd leave me alone, but it didn't really work..."
"Gilbert mark my words, you'll be with us." Tyler said and then they left.
"Um... listen Damon, I have to go," I said as I pulled on my motorcycle pants, and grabbed my stuff.
"I'll walk you to you're car." He said as he stood up.
"Motorcycle" I corrected him
"Then I'll walk you to your motorcycle. he said
"Just give me a second," I said as I walked over to a wall, hit it and then grabbed, my ipod and then I walked back over to him.
He had a look of shock on his face
"What?" I asked him
"Did you see what you did to the wall?!" he asked pointing at the huge dent in the and cracked dry wall
"Yeah, what about it?"
"Nothing, I've just never met a girl, no offense, who could crack dry wall, with her fist first time." he said still slightly in shock.
"Well, I had to get my anger out some how..." I said innocently
"I just hope you don't get mad at me.." he said nervously laughing
"Don't worry, I don't have a reason.." then changing my tone from light and care-free to serious and mean "Yet." I finished
Damon just stared at me
"I'm kidding," I said
"Oh," he said
As we walked to the parking lot we talked about what Tyler and Dick were talking about, and other random stuff.
Finally, we reached my bike, I looked up at Damon, he seemed a little shocked or surprised
"You okay?" I asked him
"Yeah, its just...um?' he paused "That's your bike?" he said pointing to my Buell
"Yeah, why?" I asked him
"Because, that's my Ducati," he said pointing to the Ducati next to my Buell
~Flashback~
"Um Emily," Elena started "You've been here fifteen minutes, why haven't you taken your helmet off?"
"Because people are staring," I told her
"That guy's not," Meredith said "Oh never mind, he looked."
All of a sudden a motorcycle engine roared behind me, I could tell the rider parked next to me and was close enough to hear me say,
"2006, Ducati superbike, nice."
~End Flashback~
"Whoa." I said
"Yeah, I had no idea that was you, but I guess I should have figured it out." he said
All of a sudden, my cell phone rang
'One, 21 guns'
'Lay down your arms, give up the fight'
'One 21 guns'
'Throw up your arms into the sky, you and I'
"Hello?" I said still looking up at Damon
"Mmhm,"
"Mmhm,
"Mmhm,"
"Alright, I'll be right there."
"Okay bye,"
"Everything okay?" Damon asked me
"Yeah, I just have to go, I'll see you around."
"Okay," he said as I mounted my bike and started the engine
I put my helmet on, and waved good bye to Damon and then I was gone.
D.P.O.V. (Damon, walking towards, the parking lot)
We talked about what idiots and Dick and Tyler are, and other random things.
'Emily, your sweet, but I can't wait to drop this stupid human act.' I thought as we reached our motorcycles
I put on a look of shock
"You okay?" Emily asked me
"Yeah its just.... um?" I paused "That's your bike?" I said pointing at her Buell
"Yeah, why?" she asked
"Because, that's my Ducati," I said pointing to my bike, which was next to hers'
She just stared at me for a few minutes, and what I can tell from her thoughts were that she was having a flashback of this morning when I came to school.
"Whoa." she said
"Yeah, I had no idea that was you, but I guess I should have figured it out." I lied
then her phone rang
'One 21 guns
Lay down you arms, give up the fight
One 21 guns
Throw up your arms into the sky, you and I'
"Hello?' she answered still looking up at me
"Mmhm"
"Mmhm"
"Mmhm"
"Alright, I'll be right there."
Okay, bye."
"Everything okay?" I asked her
"Yeah, I just have to go, I'll see you around."
'Yes you will.' I thought
"Okay," I said as she mounted her bike and started the engine, she put on her helmet, waved good bye to me and she was gone.
'Finally, no more weak human act.' I thought
I put on my helmet, mounted my bike and headed off to Stefan's.

"Brother?" I called threw his door
"Come in," Stefan called
I opened the door, to find him trying to find a jacket to ware
"What are you doing?" I asked him
"Trying to find a jacket to ware tonight," he answered as he tried on a navy blue sport coat
"For what may I ask?" I said as he tried on a tan one
"Dinner tonight with Elena," He said taking off the tan one
"Here," I said handing him, black dress pants, a light blue cotton shirt, a black jacket and his best shoes.(A/N: Stefan's outfit on profile)
"Thank you," he said as he took the clothes and walked into his bathroom to change "So why are you here?" he asked
"To say happy birthday."
"Thank you."
"Stefan, I have to go, good bye brother"
"Good bye." he said as he walked out of the bathroom
Em.P.O.V.
"Elena?" I called as I walked into the house
"I'm upstairs." She called
"What do you need help with?" I asked her as I walked up the stairs
"I need you to help me, pick out what I should ware tonight,"
"Where are you going?" I asked
"Out to dinner with Stefan, for his birthday, were going to, The Flame." She said as she curled her hair
"Alright," I said as walked into her closet, "What's your make-up going to be like?" I asked as I looked at her dresses
"Natural," she said
"Okay," I said
I picked out a black dress that was just above the knees, with a metallic light blue sash, and sparkles. I laid it out on the bed and then walked back to pick out shoes, I picked out a sliver pair with metallic blue ribbons that matched the sash.
I walked out of the closet, and handed Elena her shoes.
"Thank you so much!" she said as she sat on her bed to put on her shoes "Can you go pick out a necklace and earrings for me?" she asked as she laced up the ribbon on her left shoe
"Sure," I said as I walked into her bathroom
I found a black velvet box, I opened it and found a diamond necklace and earrings.
I walked out and gave the box to Elena
"Thanks," she said as she put the jewelry on once she was done, she turned to me and said "Now, come on we have to pick out what you're going to ware!"
"What?" I asked her "I thought it was you and Stefan going out to dinner,"
"We are, but you, Bonnie, Meredith, and Matt are going to go there and surprise him!"
"Oh..." I said
"Mmhm, so come on!" she said as she pulled me to my room
"Okay, so what's your make-up going to be like?" she asked as she looked in my closet
"Very natural," I said
"Alright," she said as she pulled out a metallic teal dress, with floral glitter, she laid it on my bed, and then went and picked out my sliver shoes, with diamonds set in some places, and then she pulled out a navy blue velvet box, that had my floral diamond necklace and earrings.
"There you go," Elena said "Okay, now go shower, um, you should straighten your hair, and do your make-up, and the others will be here in two hours, to pick you up and go to the restaurant."
"Alright," I said
And then a horn sounded from the drive way,
"Oh, that's Stefan!" Elena said
"Go, have fun!" I told her
"Okay, I'll see you in about two hours," she said as she grabbed her purse and walked out the door
I sighed and walked back into my room, and into my bathroom, I turned on the water waiting for it to heat up, and then, once it did I stepped in, and let the warm water run over my skin
After my shower, I put product in my hair, to protect from heat damage, make it shiner, and volume.
I straightened my hair and did my make up, I put on my dress, shoes, and jewelry, grabbed my camera, ipod, cell phone and put them in my purse.
I took one more look in the mirror and then I heard a honk from a car, I looked out the window and saw Matt waving at me,
I turned off the lights grabbed my keys, locked the door, and ran/walked to the car
"Wow Emily, you look great!" Matt said
"Thank you, you look great too!" I said he's waring a dark brown suit, mint green shirt, and black dress shoes
He opened the door for me and I got in the back with Bonnie and Meredith
"Hey girlies!" I said
"Hey girl hey!" Bonnie said
"Hey Emily! You look ah-mazing!" Meredith said
"You really do!" Bonnie agreed
"Thank you, you guys look pretty hot your selves!" I said as I looked at their dresses
"Bonnie was waring a pink, sparkly, short dress, diamond necklace and earrings, and sliver shoes also with diamonds set in them, Meredith was waring a white dress, with a lime sash, with glitter on the side, sliver shoes, and diamond necklace and earrings also.
"Hey Matt," I said
"Yeah?" he asked
"Put on the country station,"
"Can do." he said as he turned the radio on and flipped threw the stations for a few seconds, then one of my favorite songs came on
Missed my alarm clock ringing
Woke up, telephone screaming
Boss man singing his same old song
Rolled in late about an hour
No cup of coffee, no shower
Walk of shame with two different shoes on
Now it's poor me, why me, oh me, boring
The same old worn out blah, blah story
There's no good explanation for it at all
Ain't no rhyme or reason
No complicated meaning
Ain't no need to over think it
Let go, laughing
Life don't go quite like you planned it
We try so hard to understand it
The irrefutable, indisputable fact is
Pshhhhhhh, it happens
My trusty rusty had a flat
I borrowed my neighbors Cadillac
"I'll be right back," going down to Wally World
That yellow light turned red to quickly
Knew that truck the moment it hit me
Out stepped my ex and his new girl
("Sorry 'bout your neck baby")
But it's poor me, why me, oh me, boring
The same old worn out blah, blah story
There's no good explanation for it at all
Ain't no rhyme or reason
No complicated meaning
Ain't no need to over think it
Let go, laughing
Life don't go quite like you planned it
We try so hard to understand it
The irrefutable, indisputable fact is
Yeah, the irrefutable indisputable, absoluteable, totally beautiful fact is
Pshhhhh, it happens
"We're here," Matt said as he stopped the car, he got out and opened our door
"Thank you," Meredith say as Matt helped her out
"Thanks Matt," Bonnie said and it might have been a trick of the light, but she looked all 'doe-eyed'
"Thanks dude," I said as I stepped out of the car, my eye was caught by a motorcycle in the parking lot, a red, 2006, Ducati... superbike.
'Damon?' I thought
"Come on Emily," Matt said
"I'm coming," I said not taking my eyes from the motorcycle
"Emily, you stare at motorcycles more then you stare at boys," Matt said as he grabbed my arm (not by force.) and pulled me away.
"Jealous?" I asked him teasing
"Ha. Ha." he said before we walked threw the door, to find Bonnie and Meredith waiting for us
"Hi," Matt said to the person behind a podium, "Salvator," Matt continued
"Right this way sir," the man said
When He lead us to Elena's and Stefan's table, we walked up to them and said
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEFAN!" we quietly yelled
Stefan looked at us, he was very surprised "Um, thank you!" he said then we heard a velvet voice behind us say
"Happy birthday, brother." he said
"Thank you brother," Stefan said
Matt, Meredith, Bonnie, and I turned around to see... Damon. he was waring a black suit, and shoes with a gray dress shirt.
I looked at Matt, Meredith, Bonnie, and Elena, their eyes seemed to have a faint hint of hate.
"Damon, this is my cousin, Emily." Elena said with a hint of coldness in her voice.
"Hello," I said
"Hello Emily," He said taking my hand and kissing it.
