Evangeline P.O.V
"It doesn't matter, you're here. In the present not the past nor the future. You are who you are. Your own person, your own author, your own... Dammit Caroline don't look at me like that!" I sighed loudly, rubbing my face up and down in frustration. Caroline grins widely at me sipping away her chocolate milkshake. We were at the grill sitting at my usual spot which was at the corner of the grill. The place where people will not notice you.
"I can't! I can't do this!" I groaned, my head propped against one hand as I looked away defeated. Caroline looks around the Mystic Falls Grill her eyes searching everywhere but me. "Caroline!" I whined. "Oh I'm sorry? You called me? I don't talk to people who give up," She smiles sarcastically.
"Care bear, don't be like that." I pleaded as she sighed. "You can't give up on this Eva! Your mother wanted you to join!" She folds her arms around the now empty milkshake. "I don't know Caroline with everything going around recently. I'm kinda busy," I confessed playing with the drink I had ordered but never even drank.
I think I needed something a little stronger actually. Its been a couple days since Stefan told us everything. I guess you can say I'm handling it. I mean its normal having a boyfriend whose past lover looked exactly liked me right? And to top it all off the mysterious Vampire that came back is now roaming around. At least I knew it was a guy.
So basically that was why I had forced myself to go out with Caroline. My forget-about-everything-for-a-moment friend. She always has a knack for making me forget things for a while. Which I'm grateful for.
"Busy? Oh don't pull that card Evangeline Gilbert!" She scolded waging her finger at me. I rolled my eyes, if you only knew. "Look if you want to give up, go right ahead. But think about what your mom will think somewhere out there if you don't join Miss Mystic Falls." Caroline blinks her eyes all innocently.
I raised an eyebrow at her point of guilt tripping me. "Fine! Fine! I'll do it, but do I have to deliver this speech after the dance?" I looked down at the sorry piece of tissue paper I had written my words in with pen. "You got chosen to describe whatever you feel like is necessary so as long a its not anything dumb. Its a huge deal! You can't turn that down!" Caroline looked scandalised.
"Caroline the Miss Mystic Falls is five months from now, don't you think calling me- no wait demanding me to come here as soon as possible is a little bit over exaggeration?" I asked, finally taking sips of my chocolate milkshake. Realising the sugar gave me a boost I drank some more. "It was hardly an over exaggeration." She scoffed watching as I quirked an eyebrow.
She bit her lip and threw her hand in the air in surrender. "Fine! I was exited okay? I just got the news and when I heard you, Elena and me were chosen. Especially you as the opening speech. I just..." Her eyes cast down as she nervously rubbed her hands on her napkin. "I just wanted to let you know and maybe... you seem so down lately I wanted to make you happy..." She finally confessed letting out a huge sigh.
My eyes widen the size of saucers as I took Caroline's words in. She wanted to cheer me up? She knew I was sad? Was it really that obvious? "And also because of Bonnie. Shes been super busy and had been ignoring my calls and even if she does answer she says she has some extra assignment to do! I hate being out the loop." Caroline couldn't look at me. Her eyes were down as she was biting her lip.
What was I suppose to say to her? 'Hey Care I've been sad lately because my boyfriend just told me I was a doppelganger with my twin sister and his past lover looked exactly like me. Bonnie's been avoiding you because she's busy finding out more about the Witches that attacked Mystic Falls and cause that huge electric storm four months ago remember? Did I forgot to mention that Elena and I are hunted out there but we dont even know why because we were twin Doppelgangers? Oh and I'm dating a Vampire,'
