I entered the grill feeling slightly scared for the first time in my life. I didn't know any of these people except the gang. I stopped Elena and Stefan at the pool table. Caroline nodded as well and we headed in that direction. Elena wasn't dressed up like us she wore jeans and a nice tight top; it showed how skinny she was.

"Elena" Caroline wined "you were supposed to wear that dress you showed me" she said glaring at her. I smiled and Elena and shrugged my shoulders.

"Wow Annika you look great, I didn't know someone so small could have such long legs" she said looking at me. I let out a snort of disbelief.

"I don't have long legs it's the heals they give that impression" I replied with a small laugh. I had a quick look round the room when I felt the hairs on the back of my neck standing up. I turned round towards the bar. I really hot dark haired guy was looking in my direction. He was hot. Was this Damon? I crossed my fingers that it was he looked like my kind of guy, fun and dangerous. Wonder if he would be friends with me. He didn't look like the kind of guy that would go with anyone or make friends with anyone. But Caroline did say he was a player. I turned back to my friends. "do you reckon I'll get served in here" I asked looking at them.

"Well my mums the sheriff so I don't try, one time they did serve me and mum noticed she had the poor guys arrested" Caroline replied seriously.

"That sucks, we'll guess I better try, anyone else want a drink encase he does serve me?" I asked looking at them.

"Your fine Annika really, where not staying long" Stefan said with a smile "where heading to my place, you should come, free drink" he added with a smile and Elena and Caroline looked at me. I nodded my head.

"Sure but am trying my luck here first" I said walking towards the bar. I took a stool about three away from the man I suspected was Damon. Luck was on my side the bar tender was young and cute and probably not that much older than me. He walked over when he saw me.

"Hello gorges what can I get you" he said leaning on the bar towards me. I gave him a small smile in return.

"Vodka would be nice" I replied with a smile. He leaned in and smiled again.

"Sorry babe going to have to ask for ID" he said with a smile. I leaned away from him and took a deep breath.

"What has a girl got to do to get a drink around here" I replied.

"Hang with the right person" I looked round to see the sexy guy taking the seat next to mine. He turned to face me with a smirk "so you know my brother" he said nodded towards the pool table.

"Yes I do, Damon" I replied with a smirk "I'm Annika" I added.

"I know, my brother said there was a new girl in town" he replied with a smile before turning to the bar tender "vodka and coke for the new girl and a bourbon for me" to my surprise the bar tender gave us them without delay.

"To new friends" I said as we nocked glassed together and had a drink. After a few more drink I was falling more and more for the darker and in my opinion sexier.

"So what is a former under where model doing in mystic falls" Damon asked after I told him about my past. I would regret it in the morning when I was sober but right now I didn't really care.

"Decided to move in with my mum, my dad remarried and the woman's a complete bitch" I replied "so I hate my dad now as well" I added.

"Hmm me and my dad never got along either, he's dead now of course, died years ago. Guess that's life" he replied taking another gulp of his drink. He didn't seem that drunk which was surprising consider how much he had drank.

"You can't choose your family, only your friends" I replied "I better go with Stefan and Caroline where heading to Stefan's" I admitted.

"So your heading to my house, I'll take you if you like" he said standing up and sliding his arms into a nice black leather jacket. As Stefan and Caroline walked over I looked for Elena she was talking to bonnie and Jeremy.

"Annika where heading there now" Stefan said looking at his brother. It wasn't a look more of a warning. Maybe they didn't get on.

"Yes brother we know and I've already agreed to take her in my car so lead the way" Damon said with a smirk. I smiled and followed them out the bar
