The Second Choice

So Typical

“Mattyyyy… I’m boooored!” I held onto his arm and swung myself around slightly. He rolled his eyes and handed me a chocolate covered strawberry. My eyes go wide and I give him a cheeky grin before taking a bite.

“Ames you can’t possibly be bored. Well literally just got here…” I rolled my eyes and pouted slightly. Yes. I’m a child.

“Come on, let’s dance!” I stopped my swinging and latch our arms together and dragged him to the court yard.

You have go to be shitting me… I looked over to Matt and noticed he looked just as confused as I am. I opened and closed my mouth a few times, but Matt beat me to the punch.

“Elena?” Elena… TV and popcorn my ass. Got to give her credit… in the short amount of time it took her to get ready, she did look good. I really would have preferred it if she curled her damn hair, just once!

“Matt, you look dashing,” she looked him up and down and bit off the end of a strawberry. Okay um ew..? I furrowed my brows, the confusion clearly written on my face. I’m sorry, the girl already has two Salvators hanging off her arms, and now she’s hitting on Matt. Classy. “Hey Ames, I really do love that dress.”

“Thanks, I like yours too Lena. Is it new?” She’s my freaking sister… I know everything in that girl’s closet. And this wasn’t in it. She just smiled and handed me a strawberry.

“Yeah, I just got it. I’ve just got to borrow those shoes one day. Can I talk to Matt for a minute?” I couldn’t help but give her a weird look as I pat Matt on the shoulder.

“Defiantly, I’ll see you around.” I took a bite out of my strawberry as glance over my shoulder. They were just standing there. Matt was looking a little too bashful as Elena kept giving the poor boy the once over. Again. Real classy.

“Hey Care Bear, how’s my favorite blonde vampire doing?” I swung my arm around her shoulder while offering her a strawberry. She took a bite and sighed,

“I’m fine…” I laughed and followed her gaze. Matt was laughing with that bitch Sara. HE was supposed to be my date… I frowned and pulled her closer.

“Sure you are Care Bear, sure you are.” I gave her a quick kiss on the check, “Oh come on, you’re supposed to be having fun tonight! No weird supernatural crap! Dance, flirt, sneak a few drinks! Just be a teen tonight,” She gave me a smile and let out a giggle.

“Thanks Ames, I really needed that.” I shoved her shoulder slightly and rolled my eyes,

“yeah,  yeah, just don’t get too sappy on me.” She gave me a mocking glare and checked her phone.

“Hey, I’ve got to pee. I’ll see you in a bit.” Before I could reply she was gone. Okay, weird… Is it me? I shrugged and made my way to the court yard only to see… Elena? In the same pink top she was wearing earlier. Which means that I was receiving compliments from her evil twin Katherine.

“Of course.” I scoffed and made my way over to Elena. I hear her scream and see a patch of blood forming on her back. Jeremy rushes past me. My eyes widen, “Lena? Elena!” I grab her and pull her to the ground so that she’s leaning on me, she continues to cry out as new cut appear on her body. “What happening? Bonnie! Help her!”

She looks flustered but nodes and leans over. “I can’t stop the spell, but I can make the pain go away.” Elena clutches on to me as I continue to stroke her hair and mumble some words of reassurance.

“Do it Bonnie.” Jeremy returns telling Bonnie of a witch that was working for Katherine. I focused on Elena. “Hey sweety, does it feel better?” Bonnie rushes off. Jeremy takes her place and tried to hand her his ring, but she pushes it away.

“No, it’s meant to keep you safe.”

Well Elena’s healing, Damon’s putting Katherine away and all is good in the world. Ha! Right. With Elena as my sister and while still living in this messed up town of Mystic Falls, you just know something ridiculous is about to happen sometime soon. Hopefully not before I get home and taking these ridiculous shoes off my poor wounded feet. I see Elena on the phone coming towards the car, she unlocks it for me and gave me a smile. I turned to the door just as I’m about to open it I see the reflection of a clown standing right behind me. Shit.

“Typical.” I felt a sharp pain, and everything goes black.
