Caroline woke early the next morning as the sun washed over her body from the large window next to her bed. She felt amazing waking up with so much hope. She was certain whatever was to happen to her would be better than what she had been through the last hundred years. She lied in the big bed losing herself in the memories of how she got here.

She had no memory of her life as a human. She thought it was a normal thing after becoming a vampire till she started meeting others who knew all about their human life. The first memory she has was in the summer of 2015, she was somewhere in Virginia, she woke up in the woods alone. The only thing she had was a bracelet on her wrist that said Caroline. After a few days trying to remember who she was and how she got there, she met Rebecca.

Rebecca had found her in a small town near the woods she had woke up in. She helped Caroline with everything. How to feed, compel, anything she needed to learn how to survive.

"Why do I not remember anything?" Caroline asked while sitting in the new condo her and Rebecca were sharing in Miami. Rebecca loved it here due to the beaches and Caroline figured it was better than being alone. She figured trusting Rebecca was her only choice.

"Honestly ,I am not sure but don't stress. Whatever life you left behind, good riddance." Rebecca smiled. "Seriously, let's go out, meet some guys, get a drink."

Caroline just smirked "Your right, let's get out of here."

Rebecca and Caroline were like sisters after only a few weeks. They were so much alike it made for a lot of fun times, although they also had their share of fights as well. It was always over little things such as who got to buy the dress that they both fell in love with or when they both flirted with the same guy. No matter what they were best friends first so no fight ever lasted more than a few days, that is until one summer day a year after they had met.

Rebecca had left for a few days, a thing she did about once a month. She always said that she had family to catch up with and so Caroline never forced her to say more. She figured if Rebecca wanted to open up to her about her family it was best not to pry. After a few days Rebecca returned but this time she entered the condo with two men. Caroline was surprised at first as she was hoping Rebecca was not planning on feeding in their living room. No matter how much Rebecca had pushed, Caroline had a strict blood bag diet and after awhile Rebecca gave in and accepted it.

When Rebecca followed the guys into the living room, closer to Caroline it was obvious they were not Rebecca's meal as they had no heartbeat, they were vampires.

"Hello, you must be Caroline." The older one said with a smile "I am Elijah, Rebecca's brother."

Caroline was surprised but also very excited that Rebecca was sharing her family with her. She realized that Rebecca truly did trust her. Elijah was tall and had dark hair, he was wearing a black suit, which in Miami was a rare thing to see. Caroline could not help but smirk picturing him out on the boardwalk dressed like that.

"This is Kol, my other brother." Rebecca said pulling Caroline from her thoughts.

"Hi, it's a pleasure to meet you both. I had no idea Rebecca had 2 brothers she was keeping hidden away." Caroline laughed slightly as did Rebecca.

"Well, what can I say, a girls gotta have a few secrets." Rebecca replied as she walked out of the room to put her luggage away. "Oh, they plan on staying for the week. Hope you don't mind." She called out from her room.

Caroline did not mind at all, she could not keep her eyes off of Elijah. There was something about him, she could not deny he was gorgeous. Kol on the other hand was hot for sure but the way he stared at her made her shiver. He kept looking at her like she was something to eat.
