Another Salvatore(Book 1) *Editing*

Secrets from the past part 1

It was morning and I was just getting up for school when Stefan came in to my room.

"hey Stefan, did you sort things out with Elena because she seems pretty upset about it."

"not yet Laura, i'm not going to school anymore, just thought I would let you know." Stefan said

"ok then, I am still going tho" I told him as I grabbed my bag and left the house.

When i got to school i saw Elena and Caroline talking about Bonnie.

As i walked in to history class and toke me seat next to Jeremy, he smiled at me, "is everything ok after last week"

"yeah its fine, i don't want to talk about it" i said as the teacher walked in.

"Good morning everyone" he says.

he then wrote his name on the board.

"Alaric Saltzman, its quite a mouth full, i know, doesn't exactly run of the tong. Satlzman is of German origins. my family emigrated here in 1775 form Texas. I, however was raised in Boston. Now the name Alaric belongs to a great-great grandfather, i will never be able to thank enough. you'll probably want to pronounce it Alaric but its Alaric, so you can call me Ric, I'm your new history teacher" he said.

History was boring today we learned about the 1st world war but the teacher made it interesting.

At the end of class Jeremy had to stay behind so i waited outside for him, but i could still hear the teacher talking to him.

"Mr Saltzman you wanted to see my about something" Jeremy said.

"did you know you teacher had a jack ass file. were he wrote down the names of all the troublemakers in it, i noticed you were one of them, but since I'm not him, i am going to start fresh, now lets talk about grades"

"it know its been a rough couple of months but I've been trying to turn them around"

" i saw that, but the problem is were half way through the school year and half a fail is still looking pretty blank. well here's how you can make it up, how about some extra credit.

"yeah i would really like that" Jeremy said

"glad to here that, write me an essay" the teacher said.

"What on?" Jeremy asked

"History, pick a topic, keep it local, no copying of the internet. These old towns have some rice history,so get you hands dirty, make it good and your back on track. Deal?"

"yeah that sounds good, by the way that's a cool ring on your finger"

"oh thanks, its a family ring, my father gave it to me. You have a week" He said as Jeremy left the class room and walked over to me.

"so extra credit, what you going to write about?" i asked him.

"im not sure really, i might have a look down the family history, one of my ancestors kept a journal."

"oh thats sounds intresing, if you want any help looking for things you can ask me"

"ok then, thanks for offering"

Just then my phone went of, it was a message from Stefan.

i need you to come home as soon as possible its important

"sorry Jermey i have to go and see Stefan about someting important." I told him and quckly left.

When i got home i found Stefan on the door step, it was like he had been standing there the whole time.
