The Vampire and Doppelgänger

-2-

Elena's POV

Who is this guy?
Mystic Falls is such a small town that news travels quickly here, but I don't know this guy.
I look across the room to the man that took my seat. He noticed me and smiled back and I quickly whipped my head back to looking at Mr. Saltzman.
That was embarrassing.
After the bell rings, I quickly gather my stuff and rush out of the room. As soon as I get to my locker all my books fall. As I pick up my books off the floor another set of hands were helping me. I look up into the man's eyes.
"Who are you?" I say my mind wandering.
As soon as my mind realizes what I just say I was shocked.
"I mean what's your name I haven't seen you around town before?" I ask nervously.
"No worries, my name is Stefan, Stefan Salvatore," he laughs as he stands back up and gives me my books.
"What's yours?" He smiles.
"Elena, Elena Gilbert," I shyly smile back.
"Well Ms. Gilbert, it was really nice to meet you," he smiles and leaves.
I just met him and I get butterflies.
As soon as Stefan leaves, my best friend Caroline approaches me.
"Oh my gosh!" Caroline says in her peppy tone," you talked to the new kid?!"
I laugh," Yeah Caroline I was."
"He is hot isn't he?" She smiles widely.
I roll my eyes and continue my day.
As the final bell goes off, I breathe a sigh of relief.
Finally.
I walk out of school which almost seems like a run to the track.
This year I was going to be a cheerleader... Again.
Caroline thought it would be good for me to get my mind off of my parents. I quickly change into my uniform and run out to the track where all the football players are on the field. As I scan the field of football players, I wave at Matt, my ex boyfriend but best friend, Tyler, the biggest douche since the first douche invented, and Stefan?
I was shocked to see Stefan doing so well in football. I smiled at him and he waved back with a smile.
Matt made dirty looks at him and I realized why. I kinda liked Stefan.
Wait what?! You just met the guy Elena!
But thing is, I didn't care I was falling, hard.
