Its the last week of my high school year.
I'm a Senior here in Mystic Falls High School. And, i couldn't be any happier.
"Leah!" I turn to my left to see my best friend Cali approaching me.
"Hey Cal, why so jumpy and excited?" I questioned her posture. She's has the biggest grin on her face. Making her look like a clown.
"I have exciting news. You know that new guy uh what's his name?! Oh Stefan Salvatore! He invited everybody to his party tonight and I was hoping you would like to come with me? Please!" Cali asked with excitement. I closed my locker and pressed my back against it. "I would love too but, you know how my uncle is when it comes to parties Cal."
"I know, i know. But still! School is literally almost over and he needs to lay off just a little, Don't you think?"
"You're right. Well I call you when I can."
I gave her a faint smile and walked away.
My name is Leah Smith born and raised her in Mystic Falls, Virginia. The Town where all the mystical stories about Vampires and Werewolves ; So cliche. But, the stories are true believe it or not. Because, I'm a Vampire. I didn't want this lifestyle at ALL. My Uncle, Mason Lockwood raised me since? I don't even know or remember. I don't know about my real parents. At all, but I have Pictures and heard stories about them from my Uncle. Mason is related to my Dad blah blah blah I won't go into details just yet.
I walked out the school and I felt someone grab my arm. I sense his presence. It was my cousin Tyler. "Leah are you going to the party tonight?"
"I don't know. Your dad seems to cage me up while you have the time of your life huh?"
I was searching in my purse looking for my cigarettes.
"The reason why he does is cause you're a fucking Vampire! He doesn't want you adding up more cases to the sheriff's office like before." He violently whispered trying to grab my cigarettes away.
"Why do you smoke anyways? Shit is death on a stick."
"Can you stop judging me Tyler? I smoke them because their are my only way to curve my cravings for blood. And stops me from killing your ass in a instinct. You got it? And plus why cage me up if he has a dog as a son." We both were walking towards my car. Yes, my cousin is a Werewolf so is Mason. I know, that's literally a death wish waiting to happen on my behave. But Mason controls it and is helping Tyler out as well. Like I said before I won't go into details... YET. We both got inside my car, I took one last puff of my cig, flicked it out my window and drove away.

7:48p.m. and My cravings are out of control.

"Dad I'm gonna go out tonight" Tyler asked Mason while all three of us are eating at the dinner table. "Remember your curfew." He replied to Tyler while cutting up a piece of steak. I rolled my eyes and decided to ask as well. "Well can I go out as-"
"No" Mason cut me off. My eyes shot straight to his.
"Are you kidding me?"
"Don't ask again Leah"
"Why can't I have some freedom as well? Why does Tyler have it easy when he's the same level of lethal as me!" Mason didn't even bother to replying back to my opinion. I drank some blood Mason served me in a shot glass. He wants me to "control" my cravings. I looked at the corner of my eye to see Tyler's smile growing bigger. I lost it. I quickly grabbed Tyler by the neck and pinned him against the wall. My eyes turned bloodshot red with black faded veins appearing under my eyes.
"I almost killed you once Tyler don't make me try" I yelled. Mason grabbed me and thrown me across the room. I ended up on the floor, I looked up to see both Tyler's and Mason's eyes a bright yellow. Mason is holding Tyler back, While I tried calming myself down. I got up and took a deep breath. "Do you see why I don't let you do things outside the house! Both of you guys cut it out! Tyler your not going no where tonight and, as for you Leah don't make me ask you twice. Both of you guys go upstairs NOW!" Mason yelled at the top of he's voice. Tyler went up first and I followed him.

11:30p.m. I'm going crazy.
I'm pacing back and forth deciding on what to do. Cali keeps on texting me, telling me where am I or if I'm coming. I've snuck out before and it wasn't pretty. -Leah come on let's go to this party. Live a little!- my conscious kept on reminding me. -Ah fuck it. Let's go- I went into my closet and started to pick out my outfit. I wanted to go for a Vampire cliche look. You know the leather jacket and basically all black? Yea exactly that. I fixed up my shoulder lengthened black hair and breathed slowly. I locked my door turned off the light and went out the window.
I arrived at the party and its intense, already. I found Cali and she is already wasted. "Yay, you made it Leah! And i'm loving your mysterious look. Here have a drink!" She passed me a can of beer. I chugged it all at once and felt exhilarated. She passed me more, I drank all of them like if they were sips of water. Alcohol also curves my cravings. Way better than fucking cigarettes. I turned off my humanity and started dancing. I never felt this intensity in forever and it felt good for once. I felt hands softly grabbing my waist. I didn't mind, I was way to drunk to even care. I turned around and I recognized his face. -Is this the new guy Stefan? God He looks so good.-
We were both dancing against each other and my cravings were building up again. He whispered something faint in my ear. "You smell delicious." I looked up at him and he was so beautiful to me. Ironic I know but, I seen black veins appearing under his eyes just like how mine get. He leaned in and brush his lips with mine. "You taste good, what are you?" He questioned. I have him a confused look and took a whiff of him. This can't be. I thought I was the only one but, I'm drunk. what if my sense of smell is distorted. But he smells exactly like me. A vampire. "I'm sorry I have to go." I broke his touch and walked away quickly, I looked back and he was following me. I picked up the pace, I bumped into so many people I felt as if they were slowing me down. I walked faster and he was literally right behind me. I finally got to the door and rushed out to the woods. I sensed so much blood around me, I ran to the nearest heartbeat I heard and drained out it's blood. A couple minutes past and my eyes are red again. I took a deep breath and heard footsteps towards my way. I got up quickly and it was Stefan.
"Mind if I join?" He's eyes looked exactly like mine and drained out my left overs.
