"Whose this?" Anastasia looks up from her homework to see Elena holding up the sketch that she had drawn the night before.
"I don't know." She says with a shrug as she looks at her math homework.
"How do you not know? Did you draw it?" Elena asks with an accusing tone.
"Yes, Elena I drew it, but I don't know who he is. I had a dream about him and I drew him from memory so that I wouldn't forget what he looks like."
"I didn't know you could draw so good." Elena looks down at the sketch and ran her fingers along the outlines.
"A trait I get from my father."
"So what was the dream about? Must have been good for you to want to remember him so much."
"It wasn't one of those kinds of dreams." Anastasia tells her, already knowing what Elena was thinking. "It was just... nice. It was like your dream date, actually it was my dream date and he was my date."
"Ooh." Elena smiles. "And you have no idea who he is?"
"Never saw him in my life." She sounds so relaxed and carefree about it, but Elena on the other hand really wanted to know who he was.
"Aren't you curious who he is, Anya?"
"No." She looks over at her cousin. "He was just from my dream. I doubt he's even real."
"Yeah, but-
"But nothing Elena. Now put it back where I had it. I happen to like looking at it from time to time without it have rips and tears in it." Elena frowns and looks down at the picture once more. "Elena."
"Alright, alright." She places the picture back on the dresser before turning to her cousin. "Did you at least get the man's name?" Elena teases, earning a Hale glare from the cousin. "Alright, sorry. Damn." Elena mumbles before heading out the door.
Truth was Anastasia knew what the dream was about, but she wasn't ready to accept what that dream means.
Anastasia walks out of her room as soon as Elena did and Jenna walks over to them, stopping them both from leaving so soon. "Oh, do I look adult?" She asks, causing Anastasia to look at her.
"Very much so." She smiles.
"As in, respectfully parental?"
"Depends where you're going." Elena answers.
"Jeremy's parent-teacher conference." She tells them as she walks to the mirror and looks at herself.
"Oh." Anastasia makes a face as she says this.
"What?"
"Oh nothing." Anastasia nods.
"Is he really that bad?" Anastasia and Elena glance at each other.
"No." Jenna looks at the two before sighing.
"Thanks for trying." She lifts her hair up and looks at herself in the mirror once more. "Hair up or down?"
"Up." Anastasia says as Elena says,
"Sexy stewardess." Jenna drops her hair. "Boozy house wife."
"Up it is." Jenna says, causing Anastasia to laugh. "You're feisty today." She tells Elena, causing her to laugh.
"I feel good. Which is rare, so I decided to go with it." She tells them as Anastasia reapplies her lip gloss. "Fly free, walk on sunshine, and all that stuff."
"Good choice." She tells Elena with a smile of her cherry red lips.
"Mm." Elena hums before looking into Jeremy's room. "Where is Jeremy?"
"Oh, he left early. Something about getting to wood-shop early to finish a bird house." Anastasia glances her aunt with a raised eyebrow.
"Wood-shop?" She questions.
"There is no wood-shop is there?" Jenna asks, causing Elena and Anastasia to shake their heads. Anastasia chuckles and kisses Jenna's cheek.
"I'll see you later Jenna, Tyler's picking me up." She tells her as she heads down the stairs. She walks out and sees Tyler's car already waiting for her. She hopes in and gives him a smile. "Hey."
"Hey, dove." Anastasia's smile grows as Tyler starts the car and drives out of the driveway.
"You heard anything for Matt?"
"No, he.. he uh isn't talking to me really."
"Blames you?"
"No, he's just... he has a lot on his mind. I think he blames the new guy."
"The new guy?"
"I don't know, he said something about the guy being odd that night and acting not quite normal."
"He's the new guy and he shows up to a girl getting attacked by some animal, he was probably just scared. People get scared, Ty."
"I'm not saying I agree with Matt, but I'm not saying I disagree either. The guy is weird, you have to at least admit that." She frowns and looks over at him.
"Well... he is different, but I don't really know if I can say he's weird. He's the new guy. Anyone who didn't grow up in this small town is weird to us."
"You didn't grow up here."
"I never said that people don't think I'm weird." Tyler chuckles and glances at her.
"Yeah, you're really weird."
"Originally discovered nearly five centuries ago..." Anastasia sighs as she sits in another boring lesson from Mr. Tanner. Anastasia hates the class and she hates Tanner. "It hasn't been over Mystic Falls in over a 145 years. Now, the comet will be its brightest right after dusk during tomorrow's celebration." Anastasia rests her head on her arms as she hears Tanner speak once more. "Are we bothering you?" She almost answers before realizing that he was in fact not talking to her this time, but to her cousin and the new guy. "Mr. Salvatore, Miss. Gilbert." Elena shakes her head as the bell rings.
"Oh thank god the class is over." Anastasia says a bit loudly, causing Tanner to glare at her, while Elena mouths 'thank you', knowing she did it to get Tanner on her bad side instead of Elena's.
