The Gilbert Twin

The night of the comet

Emma   Stefan   Both

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 undeniably awake.

For once I don't regret the day before it begins.

I welcome the day.

Because I know

That I will see her again.

That I will see him again. For the first time in a long time I feel good.

After I get ready for school I head into the hallway were I bump into aunt Jenna.

"Do I look adult?" She asks me "as in respectful parental?"

"Depends were you going?"

"Jeremy's parent teacher conference" she answers. She walks over to the mirror we have in the hallway "hair up or down"

She puts it up "sexy stewdrews" she then puts it down "boozy housewife"

"Up it is" she says just as Elena comes out of her room "your feisty today."

"I feel good. Which is rare so I decided to fly free" Elena from behind aunt Jenna starts wiggling her eyebrows at me. I just roll my eyes.

"Where's Jeremy?" Elena asks.

"Left early something about getting school early for a wood shop class" aunt Jenna says. Me and Lena just stare at her "there is no wood shop class is there?"

"Nope" me and Lena answer at the same time.

"Originally discovered nearly 5 centuries ago the comet hasn't been over mystic falls in over 145 years." Mr. Tanner lectures. I feel someone looking at me so I turn around and see Stefan looking at me. I smile at him as we continue to gaze at each other. "The comet right after dusk during tomorrow's celebration. Are we bothering you? Mr. Salvatore? Ms. Gilbert?" He asks as obviously seeing that neither one of us is paying attention. I look at home and shake my head 'no'.

"I brought it" Stefan says as we walk threw the hallway. "Told ya" he hands to book to me"

"Weathering heights by Alex bell" I say as I look at him "I can't believe that she didn't use her real name"

"All the sisters didn't" he said to me "It was a time were female authors weren't accepted in society"

"Where did you get it?" I ask.

"Uh it was passed down threw the family" he says try to give the book back "I have lots of books. Go ahead keep it."

"Oh no" I say "but I would like to read it again. I promise I'll give it back."

"Ok" he says and I smile at him.

I am now walking with Matt and Lena outside the school.

"They are keeping her overnight to make sure there is no infection." He says to us "she should be able to come home tomorrow"
