I spent my morning getting ready for my new school. This was a small town; hopefully I would make friends and start a new life. It was probably going to be easier said than done. I was very much my own person. I did what I wanted when I wanted. This meant I wore whatever I liked. Thankfully I was blessed with good looks and a nice body. To start with I thought it was a gift. But you soon learn the hard way then the men are only after your body not your personality. It was a curse and I would call it that till I was in a proper relationship with a man that actually loved me for me. I wore ankle boots and skinny jeans which with both black. I wore a blood red vest top and leather jacket. I didn't where much make up except eyeliner and lip gloss. Thankfully my mother had money and she had already got a car for me. It was an old red dodge viper, 2008 make. Still loved it though, she had kept it for years just for me when I decided to move back in with her. I had been with dad all my life but his new wife was a bitch and I couldn't stand her. So here I was Mystic Falls. I jumped in my car and started the engine. I used road signs to get me to school. Which look less than ten minutes. As I pulled into the parking lot and got out my car I heard someone speak.

"Hi, I'm Caroline who are you?" she asked with a smile. She was tall and skinny, a tall skinny blond. Every guys dream, she was no doubt a cheerleader as well. I prayed she wasn't one of these bitchy blonds that I had heard off.

"Annika Wilson, yeah I've just moved here" I said with a small smile.

"Great I can show you around if you like, introduce you to some people" she said cheerfully. God she was just so perfect and flawless. She was that hot she could be a vampire or a goddess.

"Yeah sure why not haven't got anything better to do, it's not like I know anybody" I replied with a smile.

"Come on I'll show you the gang, where a big slightly dysfunctional family but easy to get on with" she reassured.

"I don't doubt you" I replied as she walked me into the building and towards the lockers where a girl and boy stood deep in conversation. The girl was smaller than Caroline slightly and had beautiful chocolate brown hair and followed down her back without a kink in it. The guy beside her was holding her hand, her boyfriend. He was handsome and strong looking but I didn't look at guys much these days.

"Elena, Stefan" they turned to look at her then there eyes set on me "this is Annika she's just started. Annika this is Elena Gilbert and her boyfriend Stefan Salvatore" she said with a smile.

"Hi, it's a pleasure to meet you" Stefan said holding out his hand. I took it in mine. He had a strong grasp.

"Salvatore? As in saviour" I said with a smile.

"Yip" he replied with a smile.

"Hi, I'm sure you'll fit in fine here and if you need anything we'll do all we can to help" Elena said sweetly.

"Thanks but am one of those kind of people who likes to suffer in silence" I replied with honestly.

"You like to be independent" Stefan said with an understanding smile.

"I suppose so. I need to get to the office I'll see you around" I added giving them a wave and then walking away.

I found the office without too much trouble as I stood at the desk and the receptionist checked all my stuff a handsome guy walked out the headmaster's office with a smug smile on his face. Like he'd just gotten away with something. He noticed me looking at him and stopped. He started walking towards me.

"What's your name?" he asked with a smile. He was handsome but not enough to make me want him.

"You tell me yours and I'll tell you mine" I replied with a smile.

"Tyler Lockwood, Caroline's boyfriend, I'll be really surprised if you haven't met her yet" he replied.

"if she's a hot, tall blond then yeah I have. My names Annika" I replied as the receptionist gave me back my stuff and handed me my timetable. Tyler took it and had a look.

"You should be ok, you're in all mine and Caroline's classes, good news it you won't get lost, bad news you have to get used to Caroline. She'll want to know everything about you" he smiled. Fantastic this was going to be fun.
