Drip. Drip. Drip. Blood.

My hands started to tingle and my toes tapped viciously on the ground.

My head was spinning like a top and my stomach was aching for an antidote.

My eyes turned bright red and the black veins of venom outlined my cheeks as I ran out of the café and down the alley.

I got myself under control and then got into my car.

My alarm went off on my iPhone. 7:25.

I twisted the key and the engine sounded.

I pulled out of the parking lot and the veins finally left my face.

I pulled into the school grounds and parked quickly.

"How are you feeling?" Caroline asked walking me into school.

"I'm starving." I answered stopping at my locker.

"The cravings will slowly go away, I promise." Caroline said patting my back.

Then I saw my twin sister and Stefan walking down the hallway...hand and hand.

Elena spotted me and started to run this way.

"How are you?" She asked nervously.

"I'm fine." I lied to her.

"You'll get better, you'll see." Stefan said trying to comfort me.

I ignored Stefan and slammed my locker shut before walking to U.S. History with Alaric.

"Good morning everyone." He greeted us.

I slid down into the seat and placed my headphones in my ears.

Music was my get-away from the cravings and enhances.

Since I was just turned two weeks ago, it's hard to control myself without leaving the room and taking deep breathes.

"Why is she ignoring me?" Stefan said from the lockers.

This is a plus of being a vampire, super hearing.

"She is mad that you turned her into a vampire even though you saved her life. It wasn't even you that had the idea, it was me. I was so selfish of losing her." Elena said and I could feel her shake her head.

I shrunk my hearing back to normal and continued listening to Shawn Mendes, Charlie Puth, and New Hope Club like always.

After school I drove to the Salvatore house and looked around for Damon.

"Damon? Damon? Damon?" I yelled into the house.

"I heard you the first twenty times you said my name." He said as I walked into his room.

"Oh sorry, ever heard of answering?" I snapped back.

"What if I didn't want you to find me?" He asked back and then got closer to me as if he was going to kiss me.

"I need your help." I said before he could do anything else.

"How can I be of assistance?" He asked obviously annoyed.

"I need a date for the Ms. Mystic Falls ball tonight." I said feeling a bit uncomfortable.

"Abby! Get down here!" Caroline yelled from downstairs.

"Why are they here?" I hissed.

"This is Stefan's house too." He snarled and then followed me to the living room.

"Yes?" I asked then saw Elena in her white ballroom dress.

"Look good?" She asked twirling around.

"Yeah, it's pretty." I said.

"Wait! Turn on channel 107.5 on your radio." Caroline demanded Damon.

He turned on the small radio and turned the volume up.

"The Ms. Mystic Falls nominees are as follows, Elena Gilbert, Caroline Forbes, Molly Jacobs, Bonnie Bennett, and Abby Gilbert." The person on the radio announced.

"When did I ever sign up for that?" I asked.

"Mom signed us both up before the accident." Elena said giving a weak smile.

I walked into the kitchen and Damon followed.

"Pick me up at 7:30." I said giving him a smile and then walked to my room.

When Elena became a vampire, she burnt down our house and everything inside of it. So now we live with the Salvatore brothers. I miss our house, but all the memories of my parents are there and it saddens the mood.

I walked inside and sat at my white wood desk and opened my laptop.

Then I noticed something shimmery in my closet.

I opened the door slowly and found a long blue dress.

Caroline.

I zipped up the dress and looked at myself in the mirror.

The reflection twinkled and made me feel like a princess.

I did my hair and makeup and examined myself more.

I threw on my black heels and walked downstairs. It was 7:27.

Elena and Stefan were all over each other in the hallway.

"Excuse me, can I offer you guys a room?" I asked sarcastically and then passed them.

Elena looked embarrassed.

"Sorry about that. We'll contain ourselves." She said giving a nervous giggle.

Then I saw Damon walk down the stairs in his black and white tux.

"Where's Caroline and Tyler?" I asked.

"They are meeting us there." Stefan responded.

I ignored him and walked outside to the limo.
