Waking up to the sound of an obnoxious beeping next to my bed I groan loudly burying my head deeper into the pillow as it continues to get louder and louder making me groan out loud again before finally reaching my hand out from underneath the covers to shut it off as I continue laying down falling deeper and deeper into my sleep "morning CharChar!" Someone shouted as I yelped out in pain at the feeling of someone jumping on me "Jesus Jeremy!" I shouted once I sat up finally opening my eyes to see my brother laying on top of me with a smirk on his face as he chuckled at me.

"Hurry up and get dressed or we're gonna be late for our first day back." He said as he stood up making his way out of my room and down the stairs "yeah, yeah." I groaned as I got up out of bed making my way towards the bathroom to shower and get ready for the first day of school. Shortly after I finish showering I head back into my room to get dressed.

Once I finish getting dressed I grab my backpack, phone, earbuds and sketchbook before heading downstairs immediately heading into the kitchen I grab a cup pouring myself some coffee "hey, there she is. I was beginning to think that you weren't going to wake up babygirl." Jenna said as she ruffled the top of my head gently "sorry, aunt Jenna." I muttered while taking a quick sip of my coffee before setting it back down onto the countertop "Bonnie's here! Lola, come on or we'll be late!" Elena shouted as she made her way downstairs towards the front door opening it and heading down the steps towards the driveway "coming!" I yelled as I followed closely behind her.

--------------------

Finally arriving at Mystic Falls High we get out of the car slowly making our way towards the front entrance opening the door and heading inside I make my way towards my locker once I arrive I put in my combination before yanking the latch upwards pulling my locker open I reach in grabbing my history and English textbooks before slamming my locker shut as I begin making my way towards Mr. Tanners class immediately taking my seat in the back of the class placing both earbuds in my ears not caring to listen to him drown on and on about god knows what.

----------------------------
A few hours later

Now the end of the school day I make my way through the crowd towards my locker opening it and placing my textbooks back inside before heading towards the front entrance seeing Elena sitting at the bench close to the door as I make my way towards her "hey. Ready to go?" She asked as soon as she saw me walking towards her "yep." I muttered following closely behind her as we began our walk back to the house I take a few stops here and there to admire the various different trees that pass by desperately trying to memorize them for my sketchbook later.

Once we arrive back home I head upstairs closing the door behind me before throwing my backpack down onto the ground pulling out my sketchbook I flip it open to an empty page as I began to sketch the trees I saw only moments ago until finally I stop hearing a light knock on my door "come in." I said as I look up seeing Elena standing in the doorway now completely changed into something else "hey, I'm headed to the Grill. Do you want me to get you anything?" She asked "uh, no thanks I-uh-I think I'm good." I replied as she nodded at me "okay. Don't forget to lock the door when I leave!" She shouted "I won't!" I replied.

Before laying down onto my bed scrolling through my playlist until finally I land on a song that's good enough to get me through the rest of the night as I continue sketching my drawing feeling my eyes slowly start to become heavier I lay my head down for a few minutes immediately falling asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow.

Dream
Walking into a very beautiful Victorian type house I take a seat on the couch with my head in my hands while my leg bounces up and down nervously "hey. You okay?" An unfamiliar voice asked making me look up at them to see a guy whose face I couldn't quite make out standing in front of me with a worried expression "uh-I-I'm nervous. What if I can't get through this? W-what if I-what if I hurt someone?" I stammered while fiddling with my hands nervously "hey. You won't, okay? Because I'm gonna help you through this. You're under my care now and I am going to help you get through this." He replied as I nodded at him with a small smile on my face.

"Th-thanks." I mumbled lowly as he nodded at me "I got you something." He said with a smile on his face as he pulled out something from his pocket holding it in his hand "you did?" I asked with a hint of excitement in my voice as I looked up at him "yep, I had Bonnie make it for you...just in case." He said as he opened his hand up revealing a beautiful silver ring with a blue stone in the center "oh, it's beautiful." I gasped putting in on my finger carefully.

"I figured you should have one just in case you decided to follow through with the transition." He smiled as I looked at him with a wide smile on my face "I love it. It's perfect. Thank you." I exclaimed before wrapping my arms around him tightly "you're welcome." He chuckled while ruffling my hair gently "will I be able to get through this?" I asked him once I pulled away from him "of course you will. You know why?" He said as I shook my head at him "because you have me." He whispered.
