I didn't get much sleep last night. I kept thinking about Jeremy and Elena. They said some pretty messed up shit to each other and even though it wasn't aimed at me, Jeremy really hurt my feelings. We have our own way of grieving and its not okay to belittle how someone else grieves.

I leave before Bonnie wakes up and walk home. I didn't walk home at the party last night because it was night time and it was far, at least Bonnie lives 15 minutes away from my house.

I doubt that anyone has realized that I didnt come home last night. Im always forgotten and I dont mind because I am always underestimated.

I find Aunt Jenna in the kitchen trying – and failing might I add – to make breakfast. I go straight to her and take over. I enjoy cooking just as much as I enjoy eating.

"I see you've returned. Thanks for letting me know that youre sleeping over. I appreciate it." she says.

"I didn't want you to worry. Has Jeremy left for the hospital yet? You know that hell go with or without your permission. "

"Speaking of Jeremy. Do I look adult? As in respectfully parental?" she says forgetting my question.

"Right I forgot about the parent-teacher conference, he told me about that."

"So hair up- "

"Sexy stewardess." Says Elena

"Or down-"

"Boozy housewife." Elena says with a smile on her face.

"Come on breakfast is done, Ill help you with your hair." Aunt Jenna sits down and I do her hair in a cute high bun. While Im doing her hair she says to Elena "You're feisty today."

"I feel good, which is rare. So I've decided to go with it. Fly free, walk on the sunshine, and all that stuff. Where is Jeremy?"

"He left early. Something about getting to wood shop early to finish a birdhouse." Wow thats all that he could come up with. That boy cant lie to save his life.

"I told you so." I say smugly to Jenna. She looks at me and finally understands what Im saying.

"There is no wood shop, is there?"

"Nope" Elena says.

During History class Stefan and Elena basically eye fuck each other, Tanner notices and reprimand them right when the bell rings. I walk out before he can even get a word in and head to my next class. I see Bonnie and Caroline and head over to talk to them.

"Hey guys. Thank you again Bonnie for letting me sleep over."

"Hey, no problem."

"Hey. So I'm confused. Are you psychic or clairvoyant?"

"Technically, Grams says I'm a witch. My ancestors were these really cool Salem witch chicks or something. Grams tried to explain it all, but she was looped on the liquor so I kinda tuned out. Crazy family, yes. Witches? I don't think so."
