The Supernatural Diaries {Book One}

Dean I

Hey, Dad, it's me again.

I don't know if you can read this wherever you are, but if so then I just thought you might want to know that it's Sammy's first day of high school today. Other than that I don't really have any exciting news. My best friend Elena is kind of going through a rough time right now. She just lost both her parents and I've kind of been the only friend who could really sympathize with her on that front.

Everyone is probably going to ask her if she's feeling okay and she's most likely going to answer with, "Yes, I'm fine. Thank you." However, deep down, I think the others and I know differently. I was never really good at feelings and I know she's going to try to put on a brave face. I know she won't want to talk about it, and I get that. I just hope that she remembers that I or any of us are here for her if she needs it.

Aside from that drama, I honestly hope that the rest of the school year ends up being less crappy than it was last year. It's been three years since Sam and I quit hunting and moved to Mystic Falls. Well, I actually never stopped hunting, if I'm being honest. Sam doesn't know but during my many summer outings to Sioux Falls, I ended up backpacking with my old buddy Lee Weber across the country hunting monsters and trying to find leads on Mom's killer.

I know that I promised Sam that I wouldn't go hunting anymore, but I can't. It's like every time I try to distance myself from it and try to have a normal life, the urge to go out there and save people and hunt things just comes back twice as strong. As crazy as it sounds, it feels like I was born to be a Hunter.

"DEAN!" Sam's voice called out from the other side of my door. I immediately bolted up from where I sat on my bed and closed up Dad's journal and hid it underneath my pillow just as my brother burst through the door.

"What is it, rugrat?" I asked.

"Aunt Sheila said to come down and get breakfast before we leave for school," he replied. I nodded in understanding. "Alright, I'm coming down." As I stood up from the bed, I picked my phone and backpack and followed Sam downstairs to the kitchen and dining room.

Well, here's to a normal first day back at school.

Right?
