Dear Diary | This morning is different, There's change, I can sense it, Feel it, I'm awake, For the first time in a long time, I feel completely and undeniable wide awake, For once, I don't regret the day before it begins, I welcome the day, Because I know, I will see him again, For the first time in a long time, I feel good,
Esmeralda smiled, as she tucked her pen in her diary binder and got up from her window bed, she put her diary in her bag and looked at her reflection in the mirror, she then began rethinking last night with Stefan.
~Last Night~ "You know, you're kinda the talk of the town." Esmeralda said, laying down on her side, her elbow holding her head up as she looked at him, he was leaned against her headboard. "Am I?" He asked smiling.
She hummed, nodding her head. "Mysterious new guy, oh yeah." She said furrowing her eyebrows with a smile, making him smile wider at her.
"Well, you have the mysterious thing going too." Stefan commented, making her furrow her eyebrows. "Twinged in sadness." He added, she chuckled slightly.
"What makes you think that I'm sad?" She asked rolling on her back, and looking up at her room ceiling, avoiding his eye contact.
"Well, we did meet in a graveyard." Stefan responded, looking at her side profile.
"Right. So you have some mystery and sadness going on as well." She threw back pointing at him, making him slightly chuckle, he then looked at her softly.
"You don't wanna know. It's not exactly late night chitchat." Esmeralda breathed out, looking back up at the ceiling.
"Well, I've never really been very good at uh, chitchat." Stefan said, putting emphasis on 'chitchat'.
Esmeralda stayed quiet for a while, looking up at the ceiling as she chewed on her bottom lip. "Last spring..." She trailed off. "My twin sister, Elena was hauled by an animal North of Tabor Road, and few minutes later my parent's car drove off of a bridge into the lake. And I was in the back seat, and I survived but they didn't..." Esmeralda trailed off, shrugging her shoulders, as she sniffed, wiping the corners of her eyes, she rolled back over on her side, facing Stefan as she laid on her arms. "So that's my story." She said, zoning out, she didn't realize that Stefan had slid down and was laying on his side while leaning on his elbow, until he reached out touching her shoulder.
