ESME SALTZMAN WAS ALWAYS overshadowed by her younger sisters, Lizzie and Josie, though not intentionally. Esme loved her little sisters– though they were only a year younger than her, so not that much more 'little'– more than anything. She loved to stay back and watch them shine. She was quiet and often alone her whole life. Lizzie and Josie had each other and she had herself. Into her teenage years, her only friends were her sisters and her human boyfriend, Leo.
She trusted Leo with all of her heart and even expected to marry him someday. That was, until she got pregnant at seventeen and all of the sudden, Leo had no interest in staying with her. Esme managed to keep her pregnancy hidden from the students at the Salvatore School, but once Eve, her daughter, was actually born, she really couldn't hide it anymore.
Esme was once invisible, and then suddenly, she became analyzed by everyone. When she walked down the hallways, she was given looks of pity and judgment. She wasn't sure if being unseen or too seen was worse.
When the entirety of the school is talking about her behind her back, Hope Mikaelson is the only person who saw Esme for who she really was.
