My name is Sarah Lightwood. I'm 15 years old and live in the New York Institute. Or at least I did. Then my witch of a mom made me move to Arkansas at first I was miserable. Then I was actually kinda happy. That's when I get a call from Alec. He ask...
A month went by. Erin and I became closer than sisters. It felt like we were meant to be best friends. We became parabati as an act of our friendship and she has already saved me more times than one. There was one time when I almost fell off the pier she managed to save me by pulling on my sleeve. Then there was the time I was almost bitten by a vampire and she said "God" and it backed off. 'I knew I made the right choice' I complemented myself. Wow I'm cocky. Oh well.
Erin and I also had a lot of fun. There was no one who didn't like her. It was practically impossible. She was just so sweet and kind. She still didn't know about my...illness. But I'm working on it! Don't look at me that way. So what if I'm on then inevitable path to death? Not like it's deadly or...oh wait. Oops?
Anyway, it was the night of one of Magnus Banes famed parties to celebrate the end of the war. And I was finally allowed to go. I selected the best outfit I had. This adorable black dress, tall heels, and beautiful make up. I had put a blonde wig on and put on some jewelry

----------------------------- It was dark when we got there, and Erin and I immediately went to the bar. Because of some of the things I had seen, I drink; a lot. I'm usually drunk. But I'm the fun drunk so it's okay. Erin and I were chilling out and I was on my second bottle of rum, still halfway sober. That's when Raphael Santiago walked up. He's handsome I won't lie. Beautifully dark skin, wavy; soft hair, the whole deal. So we started flirting a bit back and forth I kept drinking. 3 bottles of whisky later and I'm smashed, so I don't really what happened after that. I think I remember Raphael asking me out and me saying yes. Other than that? Nothing.
My life just got a whole lot more interesting. It's good to be home.
