hapter Four:
Crystal Gilbert woke up with a sigh. She sat up in her bed looking around the room. She has been living at the boarding house for three months now with her twin brother Jeremy, older sister Elena and Elena's boyfriend Damon. These three months have been a living hell as she does not remember anything of her life before these three months.
She still feels like no one understands what she is going threw. They don't understand what she is living from day to day. She did find a good friend in Stefan but he left after a while and no one has heard from him the whole summer.
Elena and Jeremy have been trying to get her to remember but it is not working at all. No matter what they try they she can never remember anything at all. She just wants to get her memory back.
Crystal climbed out of bed and made her way over to the mirror that is in her room. She looks at herself in the mirror looking back at the person who was looking back at her. The person that is looking at her is not her. This is the body of Crystal Gilbert. She is now gone... And this new Crystal needs to find herself.
Crystal made her way over to the wardrobe and got changed into a black lace dress, black tights, black boots and her black leather jacket. She grabbed her hair straightener's and did her hair. She looked at herself one more time gave a smile to herself.
When she was downstairs she saw Elena and Damon making out on the couch. She coughed both of them pulled apart and Elena looked up at her. "Crystal...do you want to hang out today" Elena said to Crystal with a smile on her face.
Crystal looked from Elena to Damon then back to Elena. "no thanks, you look busy. I am meeting Caroline anyway" Crystal said making her way to the door. "Crystal" Elena shouted out but she just kept walking out of the door.
Crystal was walking down the road to the grill she was going to meet Matt not Caroline. Before the crash Elena told her that she was best friends with his sister Vicki. That's until she saw her with her boyfriend the night of the crash.
"What was I like back then" she asked Matt when they was both sitting in a booth at the grill. "You was like a little sister to me, sweet, kind, shy and loving. When everyone else was letting Vicki or giving up on her you didn't" he told her.
Crystal gave him a smile. "Well that's the old me, that I don't remember. And I never think I will remember." Crystal said with a sad smile.
