Gilbert Family Lake House, 8:00 am

"You brought a girl you only just met here?" 

"You brought a girl you only just met here?" 

Juliet was woken up by voices. She looked around to see herself in a bed, but it wasn't hers. Her sheets were red silk, these  were just plain and white, and they were definitly not silk.

"What were we meant to do, just leave her there to die? She was Matt's friend" 

Juliet saw the brown haired boy standing at the foot of her bed and a girl, slim, about the same height as her, with long brown hair beautiful almond eyes.

The girl gave Juliet a sympathetic look. "Good morning" She said, with a welcoming voice.

Juliet's eyes wondered around the room. "What's going on? Where am I?" She asked, confused and afraid.

The girl came closer. "Don't worry you're safe. My name's Elena. You had an accident. You don't remember anything at all," She turned to the boy,"School, now." 

Juliet got up and out of the bed, "I should be in school right now" She worried.

She couldn't go to school looking like how she did. Her hair was a tangled mess, her clothes were dirty and had patches of red over them.

"Come with me. You're okay. I'll let you borrow some of my clothes. I think I have that skirt in just about your size"

"So why am I here?"

The girl, who claimed to be called Elena, rummaged through a suite case filled with pretty and colourful clothes. "I told you you had an accident, but your fine now. My brother Jeremy you might have already met him, said you were Matt's friend?"

Juliet nodded. "He's downstairs. He was really worried about you so he brought you here" Elena finished. 

Matt brought her here? She trusted Matt even though she had only met him yesterday. She knew him well enough to know he was the kindest person on the planet. 

She started to feel a lot more comfortable now since she knew for sure she was safe. Elena handed her a denim skirt, a lot similar to the one she was wearing now and an orange sweater.

"What's your name?" Elena asked, now looking through boxes of shoes of shoes.

Juliet held the sweater in front her face. It would look like it fitted better of she rolled up the sleeves or something, "Juliet, that's my name"

Elena smiled. She pulled out a pair of yellow sneakers. "What size feet are you?"

"I'm a size six" She answered, folding the clothes she had just received.

Elena passed her the shoes, "They'll be just a bit big but they'll do. You can use the shower in there then get changed"

Elena left Juliet to go downstairs.

Juliet went inside the bathroom then tore off her clothes. She through them in the sink then got inside the shower.

It felt so good to finally have a shower. She felt all the dirt just fall off her body. She then scrubbed her hair with shampoo.

She didn't think her parents would mind her not coming home. Maggie never did. Her parents rarely saw her.

The only time Juliet had been with her family was the car ride to Mystic Falls, even then there wasn't much talking going on.
