"Demi, what wrong?" Jazz asked with the same sadness as he tried to relax me, but I couldn't it was too hard.

"M-my, gr-grandma di-died." I said threw sobs. "And I-I'm going to Mystics. And I-I want t-to go as soon as p-p-possible and I d-don't know what I'm g-gonna do." As my sobs started to calm down and my eyes became heavy and I fell into complete darkness.

Demi's POV

When I woke up, I was in the room I have at the Cullen's place. By the way that it looks outside I can tell I slept the whole day. I must have been emotionally drained from yesterday's events. I had no energy in me to get myself up from bed. I knew that eventually I had to, but it's so hard because I don't know what to do.

It feels so surreal, that last of my family is dead and soon I know I would be too. For I know deep in my heart I want to be turned, so I'd be with my surrogate family for eternity.

I slowly got up from my bed and head to the bathroom to shower. I don't know how long I was in there, but it felt like forever. I knew that all the others knew that I needed to be alone for a while or just so I can get my feelings together.

When I got out and dried myself; I put my clean set of bra and underwear and put on my fluffy robe on. From there I went to my closet and to pick out and outfit, but not sure what. In my frustration I guess Rose, well more like Jazz sensed it and sent Rose to help me.

"Demi, we booked a flight for you to Mystics. The flight leaves in two hours and I already packed for you. Two suitcases, a carry on, and your purse; I made sure everything you are going to need is in there." Rose told me. What would I do without her, I obviously be lost. I looked at her as she looked for the outfit I should wear for my leaving. How long would I be away for?

"Thanks Rose." I said as I hugged and changed in to the outfit she was handing me.

"Hey Rose, how long will I be staying in Mystics?" I asked her as I was almost finished changing.

"Well Jazz made your boarding pass for six months, because he wasn't sure how long you wanted to stay. Just don't stay to long out there ok." She told me with a smile as she pulled me towards the vanity for she could do my hair and makeup. (Outfit on profile)

When she was done and I looked in the mirror for the first time today. I looked very much like a vampire, but the only difference was my eyes and my skin completion.

When we got downstairs and saw everyone there in the living including Bella. Wondering why she was still here, but at the same time ignored it all the same. Instead of going towards them I went straight towards the kitchen to grab something to eat before heading out; with Rose and now Jazz following behind me.

I got myself some fruit yogurt, oatmeal, and poured myself a glass of orange juice. I ate in silence and when I was done Rose took my dirty dishes and washed them quickly.

I took a deep breath and said, "Jazz, Rose told me how long you booked my boarding pass to last and I just want to thank you."

"Darlin' ya don't gotta thank me for that. You are like ma lil' sister in everathin' but blood, jus like Rosie here. Jus ya betta not take so long ta come back." He told me letting his accent slip, knowing that it would make me smile just hearing it.

"Promise, but what if I can't handle it. I mean I don't know anybody out there and especially to a place I haven't been at since I was born." I told him, how will I would be able to handle it without them by my side. They are my protectors, my family, and they are all I got left in my life.

"Just remember that we are phone call away and we would be there before you know it. Speaking of that you better call us every weekend to tell us how your week has gone, ok." Rose said making me laugh at her demands for me, knowing that I would do them without hesitating.

"Oh I am going to miss you both so much." I told them and pulling both into a hug. When a heard a click and looked up to see Esme taking a picture with my phone. I ran more like walked towards her and gave her a hug. Telling her how much I'd miss her and my gardening times with her, while I'm gone.

"Come on Demi time to go and your luggage is already in the car." Rose said as she handed me my coat. As we were walking out, I remembered the only person I forgot to hug was Carlisle. I turned and saw him at the entrance of the living room as this time I ran towards him and gave him a tight hug.

"I'm going to miss you too and raiding your library before going to bed." I said laughing a little bit at the end.

"I'm going to miss you too Demi. If you need anything call me too, ok?" He told as he kissed the top of my head, while I whispered a yes. I let him go and went on my way. I noticed the hurt look on the faces of Edward, Alice, and Emmett. But they had hurt me too and they just haven't noticed it yet.

The three of us were in the car when my I got a text message and the screen said "Stefan Salvatore." I looked suspiciously and glared at both of them, until one of them cracked.

Jazz said, "It was me and you're getting at that look. If I were still human I would be dead now. Anyways, I have to tell you something that is including the Salvatore name." He looked at me through the review mirror as I nodded to him to continue. "The Salvatore name is one I remember from when I was in the Civil War. Especially the name Damon Salvatore, as he was also fighting on our side for the Civil War."

"You're giving me a history lesson?" I told him while I opened the text from Stefan. Read that he won't be able to pick me up as he is helping arrange the funeral. That his brother Damon was going to pick me up. My eyes got big at the name and I looked up and asked Jazz, "Did this Damon guy get married?"

"No from what I found out later is that he had been killed by his father and…" He stopped before he could continue. "How did I not notice it before, all of the Salvatore's had died a little while after the war has ended. The only possible way is if they are vampires too. The only way they'd know is if Damon recognizes me on of my pictures you have of me. As I am guessing he is the one picking you up?"

"Yes he is should I be careful?" I asked him, so I was going from one supernatural city to another how fabulous.

"I don't know, but if anything happens you call me right away." He told with so much seriousness. Before he turned off the car and got out. I just noticed that we were at the airport Rose and I got out too.

Before forgetting to send a quick text message to Stefan saying, "Thanks for telling me."

Sending my luggage through the luggage claim and heading towards the gate I would be entering soon. We waited for them to call to board the plane. I saw very few would be boarding on the first plane and wondered how many would board the second plane. We talked about anything and everything all the same while we waited. When they finally called for boarding and gave them one last hug and left.

I had first class and since it was still early I decided to take a nap. Later I awoke with someone tapping my shoulder and asking me if I wanted anything to drink or if I wanted any type of snack. I asked for ice tea and some peanuts.

Since nobody was sitting next to me I had decided to put my carry on there so I wouldn't have to get up and make a fool of myself. I opened it and saw that she had put in my tablet in there and remembered I had downloaded the Harry Potter series onto it. I was a bookworm to the core and my room was full of them and sometimes I would raid Carlisle's when I had nothing else to read. Even if most of them were just medical books. But it didn't matter to me, because I thirsted for knowledge.

Moments like this when I would read books like Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings; I would often stop myself to think if people like them existed. Because I for one knew that if vampires existed then werewolves would have to be too, simply because they are enemies. So why not be there kind like in the books that I read, even if there just fantasy.

Time went by really quickly and didn't even notice that I was almost there or maybe I did but I was not paying much attention. When the plane finally reached its destination and descending the plane into the airport; I headed towards the baggage claim area to get my stuff. Leave it to Rose to pack me two suitcases of whatever she packed.

I just wish I knew how this Damon guy that is supposed to pick me up looked like. I felt eyes staring at me and turned around and saw a handsome looking guy. What captivated me were his eyes, they the beautiful shade of blue I ever seen like clear ocean blue with a hint of gray looking into my icy blues.

I also felt this buzzing sensation flowing through my body and a tug from my heart wanting me to go towards him. Like if just being near him would always keep me safe no matter what. I saw he was holding something in his hand and it was paper with my name. I shook my head in coincidence and know that this man I was walking towards was the one and only Damon Salvatore.

What confused even more is that is he was a vampire than why in the world were his eyes not red or a bright honey color. Is it possible the there is a different race of vampires that we didn't know about. Either way I was going to trust him and eventually I would tell him what I know sooner or later.

Damon's POV

As I waited at the airport for this girl I was going to babysit, because Stefan told me so. I mean come on what does he take me for his lap dog or some crap like that. But no Elena had to stick to Stefan and said it was best I do it.

But, whatever. I had a paper with her name on it as I stood there like an idiot. As I saw the people who were arriving to this town, surprisingly not so many were coming. I kept waiting when I smelled something different and it did not smell human. I looked around when I spotted a girl with blond hair and her style to be somewhat vampire-ish as some would think us would dress. But it suited her and stared at her for long while. That is until she turned around and I was staring at a pool of icy blue like eyes.

It felt like my world just stood still, like my life now was dependent into keeping this person safe. This buzzing feeling I felt and pull feeling towards her. That's when I realized I had found my dark princess, other half and soul mate. I would do absolutely anything and everything for her.

She started walking towards me and when she was close enough distant she stopped.

"Hi, you must be Damon." She said and her speaking my name was like nothing I heard before. Maybe it was a mating thing or something. "I'm Demi."

I took her hand kissed it as she blushed at the gesture. This made me smile knowing I had that effect on her and found that I quite like seeing that. Maybe not on anyone before, I might not have liked it. But on her it was a whole different meaning.

"You are most certainly right Demi." I said as I took her things before she started to protest. We walked towards the car, got in, and drove off.

"So tell me about yourself?" I asked her.

"Well my name is Avery Demitria Iris DeAngelo. Just don't call me Adi or Avery, Demi would be enough. I'm an only child and you possibly know that since I am the only living relative to my grandmother. My birthday actually never mind I'd tell you when it's near. Um I have…" She trailed off and I nudged her on her side to continue.

She took a deep breath and said, "Well there is this secret and well for some reason I really trust you. But I can't tell you just yet though. I want to make sure what I figured out is true or not. I don't want to make an idiot of myself or be called crazy." She finished as she looked out the window.

She couldn't have known already and how does she know? What happened to her that she knows what I possibly am?

"Where do you want to stay? Stefan had told me to take you to grandmother's house. He also said that he wants to meet you there and along with his friends and so you can be comfortable." I told her and I can feel her tense and then let out a shaky breath.

"Will you be there?" She asked me. She wants me there, is someone actually picking me over the others for the first time.

"If you want me to be there and though I don't think the others will be happy with me being there." I told her. Really they wouldn't and that's a fact.

"Well if they don't want you there, then how are they trying to be friendly towards me?" She said to me and that made me smile. My heart soar that my soul mate wanted me there. Even if she didn't know that she was just that.

Demi's POV

When we got to my grandma's house, I felt a lump caught in my throat. Knowing when I step into the house she won't be there to greet me.

There were other people's cars outside the house. They must be here already like Damon had said. I wonder if I would like them if they don't to appreciate Damon so much. I know it must hurt him when people that consider him as something awful or so. But I want him there by my side, even if I don't know why I do.

He offered to bring my luggage and I only took my carry on and purse. Told me there was no point in arguing with him.

The door opened and this girl greeted me with a smile and then glared. I don't think it was at me and it was probably at Damon. Well who put who knickers in a bunch, twist, whatever.

"Damon you can give me her stuff and be on your way. You are not needed right now." The unknown girl told him. All I could do is glare at her.

"He's not leaving, because I invited him to stay with me because I didn't know anyone." I told her with a cold tone.

"What did you do to her?" She asked him as if I weren't even there to begin with.

"He didn't do anything but be kind to me as doubtful as that may seem to you. I invited him willingly cause of what he told I am beginning to believe it's true. Also don't talk around like I am not even here. If want say something say it to my face and not around me, got it!" I said to her with even taking a breath and now sheathing with anger at the end. I think Rose would be smiling proudly in a way.

I turned to look at Damon and said, "You know you'll always be invited here." I smiled and walked inside leaving the girl with a gaping look.

"Elena you really don't have to be so rude to her, just because she likes the person that I am." Damon said. He's right; I am sort of, kind of starting to like him. But I would want to get him to know him better. Now I have to thank Jasper even more for making my boarding pass last six months. Wait what if Jasper knew something and did not tell me. Ooh he so damn sneaky, stupid smart vampire.

Sorry I took forever. With school and the finals I took and then starting my new course classes has been stressful. Currently I am on a writer's block for my other story "Never Alone." I probably wrote the next chapter like six times. Hopefully this time around it turns out the way I like it. And hopefully you like this chapter too.
