I hear a knock on my balcony door. I look up from my homework on the floor, nobodies there. It's my birthday but sadly school still goes on so I've still gotta hand in assignments tomorrow. I gnome it but it happens again. I get up and slide the door across to open it. I see a small box lying on the ground with a card. I pick it up and walk to dresser. 'Happy birthday Alison.' Is all it says. I open the tiny box to see a diamond ring in it. And it's real so, I'm really over the moon. I slip the ring on my middle finger on my left hand. It fits like a glove, I switch the lights off and get in bed. I grab my diary and a torch and begin writing...
Dear diary, I got this beautiful diamond ring. But I don't know who from, I'm kind of curious to know who is the one who would spend so much on me and not even show themselves... Anyways I'll treasure it forever...
Signed Alison.
I switch the torch of and rest the them on my bedside table. I snuggle up under the covers and wait as the darkness takes a hold of me...
I jump of the tree and race back home. A feeling takes hold of my heart. I shouldn't have done that. I lock the front door and walk to the couch where Damon is sitting in front of the fireplace.
"Going somewhere?"
"No!" I reply puzzled at his sudden comment. He circles his glass I his fingers, and let's out a small chuckle.
"You're making the same mistake brother, you'd think you would have learned after her."
"No, I'm not getting involved and you made the mistake with Elena, she chose you and it led to that." I retort back.
"Oh really. I seem to recall it was you who introduced her to this little world of ours."
"But her current state is not on me."
"It's not on me either! That son of a bitch, Kai cast the spell." Reminds Damon.
"What ever I'm not in mood to talk anymore." I say turning towards the stairs, Damon blocks my path, taking a sip of his whiskey and smashing the glass.
"That's how she's gonna end up, if you continue." He says hinting to the broken pieces of glass, before leaving.
I let out a sigh and go to my bedroom...
Dear diary, Damon gave me a great lecture on how anyone who messes with vampires either ends up dead or becomes one or they become insane and broken inside. As much as I hate it, I have to stay away, I can't give such a miserable life onto her... Nor can I force my pain her to carry my pain and burdens. So starting today I'm distancing myself from her.
Signed Stephen.
One year later...
I wake up due to the early chirping of birds and the sunlight fills my room. I get dressed and head on out to school. I visit Dads grave before I go to school, he died a few months ago, he was investigating an animal attack and some kind of animal got him and they found his body ripped to shreds in the woods, his limbs were scattered and they never found his heart, it had been ripped out his chest. Lately there have been a lot of cases like this, I wish it would end. I place a rose on his grave and rush to school. Emily, Chloe and Jane greet me at the entrance and we go in together. Emily runs off with her boyfriend. Chloe has a different class so she leaves halfway and Me and Jane luckily have lockers next to each other and class together so we go together. I'm meant to keep this a secret but Chloe's a witch and Jane's a werewolf. Cool, right? Me and Emily are just boring old humans though.
I sit next to Jane and a new guy sits down next to me on the right. He's so cute or that's what Jane keeps texting me through out the class, I decide not to even take a glimpse. Cause I'm kind of shy, around guys, and wouldn't you feel awkward if everyone keeps staring at you. So technically I doing him a favour so he doesn't feel awkward...
Few months later...
I leap over the logs and run as fast as I can. I follow a twisted path trying not to crash into any trees, but a few twigs get caught in my clothes making holes big enough to fit my hand in them.
Suddenly I crash into a wall. I look up and realise I was wrong it was person, no it was a vampire...
Two days ago...
It's late, so I say goodbye to Chloe and Jane and get into the car. I'm driving through the forest and I accidently hit someone. Wait, I know this trick, what if it's another vampire. I call Stephen and tell him to tell my parents I'm gonna be late coming home. He doesn't question me, which I'm grateful for because then it would be a hassle. I get out the car and slowly walk to the body.
"Excuse me, sir? Are you okay?" I say keeping a distance.
"That's how your treating someone you just ran over. I would expect you to fawn over me." Says the person, slightly over confident. He's confirmed my doubt.
"How about I call an ambulance?" I say, dialing 911.
"No it's fine, I can walk." Says the guy getting up. "So since you hit me how are you going to make it up to me?"
"Excuse me?"
General PoV
"I've got an idea, how about you give me a sip of your blood." He says his veins around his eyes popping out of his head. Alison backs away and quickly opens the door of her car trying to get in. But he catches her and sinks his fangs into her. She screams and loses conciousness...
She wakes up in a shed, her hands chained to the ground. The room is filled with a metalllic scent mixed with the smell of death as if somethi g is rotting away in the shed. Her neck is covered in dried blood and her clothes are slightly torn. A familliar face enters the room.
