Chapter 4

Damon made his way to the front office, passing pupils and teachers whose mouths dropped upon seeing him, but that was the last thing of Damon's mind. The front office, in Damon's opinion, was tacky, it was a small room with posters covering wall to wall and plants were everywhere you turned, luckily there wasn't any vervain. A secretary, with a short brown bob and bright red lipstick, sat behind a huge desk that could barely be seen with the piles of paper and folders that lay on it. When she looked up she looked shocked then smiled brightly at Damon revealing her lipstick-stained teeth. "Hello, Can I help you?" she leaned over the desk, trying to pull her top down discretely and run her fingers through her hair quickly, hoping he wouldn't see. This should be easy, he thought to himself.

'I hope so' he said smiling to reveal his white teeth over his blood red lips.

'Well, I-I'm umm I'll try my best", she replied slightly dazed.

'Great, my name is Damon Salvatore' he said smoothly, extending a hand. 'I just transferred here from Italy'.

She reached out and grabbed his hand eagerly. "Italy? Hmm just give me a second, just need to…" Damon stopped listening by this time, while she leafed through papers and continued to babble on.

"Ahh, there it is!" she held up a small folder that contained the fake papers that Damon sent out last week. "Everything seems to be in order but your timetable won't be ready until tomorrow…"

"No problem, I have business to take care off anyway", Damon smiled secretively.

"Great, come see me first thing tomorrow"

"I was wondering, if I could see a students file before I left?"

"No, sorry that's against the restrictions"

Damon looked her straight in the eye, "I need to see a pupils file, now"

She blinked a few times then replied, 'Not a problem, all files are through that door, help yourself' she indicated to a red door at the side of the room.

Damon went through, the room was filled with filing cabinets, he opened the one closest to him, and it was filled with the younger students' files, so he closed it and went to the one at the back wall. He flicked through the files looking at the pictures when he got to the 'G' section he saw her picture. 'Elena Gilbert' he said smiling to himself. She had good grades, was 17 and lived in Fells Church all her life. At the back page near the bottom it was written 'both parents deceased, killed in car accident. Current Guardian, Judith Gilbert.' Damon felt a surge of emotion that he hadn't felt in years, sympathy. He was angry that he wasn't there when she needed comfort and support, he hadn't even spoke to her yet but yet he felt like he known her all his life. He put the file back, as it was already imprinted in his mind, and put the extra copy of her picture in his jeans pocket. Damon walked through the front office quickly not wanting to have to talk to the secretary again. The halls were vacant, the first class must have started, and he went to his car and searched. He couldn't start school until tomorrow but that was good because he didn't want to be around Elena until his blood needs were fulfilled. He needed to hunt, to feed then he could finally be with Elena…
