Little Miss Salvatore

Chapter 5

"So what do you do here for fun?" I asked Matt and he looked at me like I was something he has never seen before. "Are you kidding me?" He asked like I made some joke. "No, I didn't intend to joke. I was serious with my question. What do teens do here for fun?" I asked him again. "Throwing parties, get drunk and try to stay alive" "Shouldn't the last part be normal for everyone?" I asked. "Well not in Mystic Falls. If you go to a party you have to make sure you survive. I know from experience" He said, looking into the emptiness again. "You did?" I asked caring. "Yes, my sister got bitten on a party and was crazy afterwards. She kept saying it a was a vampire, but I was so stupid and didn't believe her. I thought she was on some drugs" He told me and I couldn't believe how much he went through in his still young age.

"I'm so sorry Matt" I said and laid my hand on his, which caused him to look at me. "Not your fault, but I was stupid for you to come here" He said and made a short break "If I had the chance, I would have been long gone" He added and his look was still empty. "Matt..." I said feeling bad and put my arms around him, pulling him a little close. "Just know that I'm always gonna be there to talk to. You have no idea what I went through in the last hundred years" I said and laid my head against him.

Suddenly his phone rang and we jumped apart. He looked on the display, then answered it. After a short time he handed to phone to me. "Yes?" I said a little confused. "Mandy, it's Stefan, I mean dad. Can you come home right away?" He asked and I was still confused. "Sure. I'll be there as soon as I can" I said and hung up, then handed Matt his phone back. "Want me to drive you?" Matt offered, but I shook my head "I can walk. I also be faster like that. Sounded serious. No offense" I said and looked around. "None taken" Matt said, still sitting on the bench.

I then used vampire speed to be home in no time and entered the house "What's going on?" I asked. "Now that you know the town a bit, it's important you know what to avoid and with who you should be careful with" Dad said and walked me to the table in the kitchen. On top of it were photographs of different people. Strangers. "Those are the Mikaelson's" He started. "The original vampires" I said and he nod "They are living in this town and it is really important for you to stay away from them" He told me. "Where did you get the pictures from?" I asked. "Doesn't matter!" He quickly answered my question. "They are dangerous, so do not make friends with them!" He told me strict. "Like I'm any good at making friends" I laughed it off a little. Like you could see, I wasn't taking him as serious as I probably should have.

"Mandy!" He warned me strict and I concentrated "The girl is Rebekah. You went to High School with her" I said and he pointed at the next picture. "Kol Mikaelson, once tried to kill Jeremy and Matt and eventually was killed by Jeremy, then came back to life somehow" I said and Stefan looked at me "I have the feeling you already know everything" He said and I smiled. "Of course I already know everything! I'm a vampire, not stupid! And I used to date Kol, well the time he wasn't in a box" I explained and looked at him. "He was always in a box, since even before I was born" "Not when I was with him" I said and I think he could have killed me right now. "I'm sorry, but it's just how it is"

"What died in here?" Damon asked as he entered the kitchen and got something to eat out of the fridge. "I killed my dad's mood" I said and suddenly felt a little thirsty "Hey, you super vampire room mates have some blood bags here, right?" I asked and Damon smirked "Why want to drink from a bag, when you can have the real thing?" Damon asked and I rolled my eyes. "Elena, where are the blood bags?" I yelled, since I heard her enter the house. "The basement" She yelled back and I smiled "Thank you" I yelled back, then used vampire speed to get to the basement and a short time later I found the bags and took one out and started drinking immediately.

I then threw the empty bag to the ground and took another one and started drinking it, but also started going upstairs, when I almost bumped into Jeremy. Well, a bit of blood spilled on his shirt. "Ugh" was his reaction. "Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry!" I apologized. "Guess that's what I get for moving in with vampires" He joked and I cracked a smile, then realized my mouth must be full of blood, so I closed it again. "I'm pretty sure I can wash that out. If not I can always buy a new shirt" He said and I had to fight not to smile.

"I'm gonna go and wash the blood off" I said and used my vampire speed to get away from him, so he didn't really see me like that. I quickly washed my mouth out and threw the now empty bag away. I tried my mouth, then went back to where I left Jeremy, but he wasn't there anymore. I put my hair away from my ear and concentrated to find out where he went. "Whatcha doin?" My stupid uncle asked. "Ugh, trying to hear something!" I told him and turned around. "Who you are spying on?" Damon asked and I groaned and walked passed him and went up the stairs to Jeremy's bed room and knocked. Short time later the door was opened by him. "Sorry about earlier. I just felt uncomfortable with ther blood in my mouth" I explained "Sounds weird, right?" I asked and he nod shortly.

"Well, again. I'm sorry" I apologized again and was about to leave, but he held me back. "There is something you should know" He said and pulled me inside of his room and closed the door. "Why are you closing the door? Wanna do something bad or what?" I teased him. "You should stay away from me" He said and I was confused "You told me to come into your room" I told him and went further into the room and looked at some photo's. "Who are they?" I asked him and he came closer to me and looked over my shoulder. "Those are my parents. They died a few years ago" He told me and I didn't know how to reacted to that. "I'm sorry Jeremy" I said, turned around and hugged him. "I'm okay" He said and I put my head against his chest. "I don't believe you. My mom died so many years ago and I'm still not over it. Guess I never really found my peace with it" I told him and he finally hugged me back.

"But you still got your father" He said and I sighed "A father I know since yesterday" "Okay, point for you" He said and suddenly kissed my forehead. I didn't know how to react to that, so I stayed still. "I thought I should stay away from you?" I asked and I shouldn't have since he let go right after it. "I'm something you should fear" He told me. "A human?" I asked, not taking him serious. "I'm a hunter. One of the five. I'm sure you heard of them. Whenever I'm around a vampire, I have that urge to kill it" He said and sounded a bit more angry. "But you didn't try to kill me and I hope you don't want to" I said and he seemed calm again. "And yes, I heard about them" I added.

"I also know you killed Kol to finish the hunter's mark" I said and turned back to him. "How you know all of that?" He aksed. "I have my ways Jer" I said and went to the door, but turned around to him again "I'm not scared of you" I said and left his room smiling and went to my room and closed the door. I smiled brighter and leaned against the door and maybe even giggled a bit. I was happy for the first time in a really long time. He kissed my forehead.

Oh my gosh Mandy! You can not fall in love with him, he's going to be your something. Not know what, but we may be somehow related in some weird way.
