School Carnival

Imarina's POV

I woke up on a round bed and stretch yawning. Then rubs sleep from my eyes. I have a shower and put on my good clothes for my interview at the Grill. I go downstairs to see Damon drinking a red substance. "What's that?" I ask him.

"Oh, I forgot you were here" he says looking up at me. "It's a special drink, not for you" he tells me.

"Ok, well I have an interview at the Grill. Can you please give me a lift?" I ask him.

"Of course, I'm heading out to the Lockwoods anyway" he states.

"Awesome" I say. "Where's the kitchen?" I ask him. He points and I go in. I make myself a bowl of cereal. "So are you close to the Lockwoods?" I ask him.

"Guess you could say that, Carol is my friend and we're on the town council together" he states.

"Sounds important" I state. "So since I'm new to town, is there anything anything exciting happening?" I ask him.

"School carnival tonight, lots of kids your age" he tells me.

"I'm not a kid" I tell him annoyed. "Anyway, lets go" I say as I place my rinsed bowl in the sink. We leave the house and get into his car. He drops me off at the grill and leaves. I go in and walk up to the bar. "Hi, my name is Imarina. I was hoping to speak to the manager about your job opening" I tell the bar tender.

"Sure, let me get her" he says and leaves. He soon returns with a girl in her early thirties.

"You must be Imarina, Matt said you'd be stopping by" she says smiling.

"Yes, that's me" I tell her smiling politely.

"Follow me to the office" she says and leads me there. She sits then first and gestures that I do the same. I sit down opposite her. "So tell me about yourself" she instructs.

"I'm eighteen and lived in Kansas until recently. When I lived there I worked at a cafe, I have my old employers contact details" I tell her.

"That would be nice" she tells me and I write it down. "What made you want to move here?" she asks me.

"Guess you could call it instinct, I felt like I was needed here" I tell her.

"Well, I'll call your former employer and if that goes well. I'll call you in for a trail day" she tells me. "But if you're looking for something to do, their looking for volunteers at the school. To help organize the carnival for tonight" she states.

"I'll go see if they need help" I tell her smiling. "I hope to here from you soon" I say and shake her hand. Then leave and head to the school Damon had pasted driving me to the Grill. I arrive and see fifteen year old boy setting up the goldfish toss. "Hi, I'm Imarina. I came to help set up the carnival, who do I talk to about that?" I ask him.

"The name is Jeremy and you'll want to speak to my sister Elena or her friend Bonnie" he tells me.

"Where can I find them?" I ask him.

"Last saw Elena with her boyfriend inside" he says pointing to the school. I nod my head and thank him. I head inside and start to look for Elena. I find her with Stefan.

"Hi Elena, Stefan" I say smiling.

"Hi,Imarina right?" she asks me.

"Yeah" I say nodding my head. "I was wondering if you need any help with the carnival?" I ask her.

"Sure, we could always use an extra pair of hands" she tells me smiling. "The ring toss, still doesn't have all the prizes hanging up. I could use help hanging them" she states.
