Dear Diary

Dear diary,

She made me a protection ring today; dads friend the witch.

Dad insisted that I wear it even though I haven't died yet but he wants me to get used to having a huge stone on my finger.

I'm not going to lie it is really pretty; a turquoise stone with black cracks over it, it's solid silver with Crystals embedded around the huge stone. Stefan brought the ring, it was my 16th birthday present from him. I know his secret, have since I was a baby, I guess being in a family like mine where half of them are supernatural I should be use to all this weird world. But to please you I guess I should say Stefan and Elena are what you would call blood drinking beings, or in simple terms vampires.

I don't fully understand why I have the ring or how I'm "sick" but everyone's worried about me, scared that I might not wake up in the morning or some thing you know as much as I do but I have woken for the last 4 months. Bonnie , my dads witch friend that is , doesn't know what it is, but it's definitely supernatural, apparently when I'm asleep my veins pulse with a black liquid. I feel fine though, at first I didn't know it was happening until my dad woke me in the middle of the night shaking me viciously as he thought I was hexed, his heart stopped thinking I was dead, whatever's happening to me has a tight gripped and doesn't want to let go...

My dads really scared he's already lost so many people and a few of them he lost due to the supernatural world especially the vampires, my auntie Elena is one of them if you haven't already guessed she changed when she was in high school. He doesn't deserve to lose me to and I don't really want to watch him grow old without me ageing next to him. It's unfair I don't want to see him die, I'm sure you can understand?

Dad says the same thing to me on the phone each night before I go to bed, "Drink it, please. I know you don't want to but I don't want to lose you too." Then I drink it, my uncles blood that is. It's nothing weird and creepy just if a person dies with vampire blood in the system they basically wake up a blood thirsty animal. No offence to vampires of course.

I'm staying at my aunties and uncles, they think it's the safest place for me, I'm just doing what in told. Being 16 does have its disadvantages. I can't go into the basement at all and when Stefan has friends around I'm not allowed in the lounge, I stay upstairs , but normally I'm at school so it doesn't bother me. I spend most of my time there or at Stiles trying to forget all my problems.

I'm sitting on my new bed. I'm not used to living here, not completely comfortable with  living away from my dad. I haven't seen him for 4 months, I hear a knock on the door from my room, then people talking downstairs but I can't make out who it is. There's more that one person that's for sure.

I look up from my diary, throw my pen on the bed and grab my phone leaving my room with out stuffing my diary under the floor boards.
