"Damon have you seen Stefan?" I asked walking into the living room.

"I think he's upstairs with Elena." he said.

"Okay, thanks." I said and walked upstairs.

I reached his door.

"Hey Stefan-" I started but stopped. Him and Elena were kissing passionatley on his bed.

"Oh god! Scarred for life!" I said covering my eyes and shutting the doors.

I walked downstairs to find Damon laughing.

"You knew about that didn't you."

He nodded.

"I hate you." I said, picking up a cushion and throwing it at his face. He caught it and put beside him.

"No you don't." he said.

I decided to change subjects. "Are you going tonight?" I asked, refering to the founders party.

"I guess," he said. "Considering I went to the first one."

I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket.

I pulled it out and checked who was texting me.

It was Jeremy.

Jeremy: heyy im gunna come round at about 5:30 yeah?

Me: k

Jeremy: k see u then

I checked the time.

It was 4:00.

"Crap, I gotta get ready." I said, running back upstairs.

I went over to Stefan's room.

This time I knocked.

"Stefan!" I shouted.

He opened the door.

"Yes?"

"Lexi left my straightner in your bathroom, can I get it?"

"Fine."

He opened the door wider so I could get in.

"Thanks."

I rushed in.

"Hey Elena." I said, walking past her.

"Hey."

I went into Stefan's bathroom.

I was searching around the counter when I looked up into the mirror.

I screamed. The guy from my vision was in the mirror staring at me. And when I blinked, he was gone.

Stefan ran in. "Marni, what's wrong?" he asked urgeantly, knowing that I don't usually scream like that unless it was serious.

I couldn't answer because I was hyperventilating.

Stefan grabbed me by the shoulders and led me over to his bed.

"What happened?" Elena asked with a worried expression.

"Marni, what did you see?" Stefan asked.

"It was him." I whispered.

"Who?"

"The guy from my vision." I whispered so quiet I could barely hear myself, but Stefan could.

Stefan stood up straight.

"Damon." he said.

Two seconds later Damon walked in.

"What happened?" he asked.

Stefan hesitated, probably not wanting Elena to hear.

"Look, Stefan I gotta go home and get ready, see you in an hour?" Elena said, obviously taking a hint.

"Okay." Stefan said and quickly kissed her on the cheek.

After she left Damon turned to me.

"Okay, what happened?"

"I saw him." I said.

He instantly knew who I was talking about.

"What? Where?" he asked.

"I was in Stefans bathroom looking for my straightner, and when I looked up into the mirror, he was there, staring at me." I said.

Damon was silent.

"Look, I'm fine." I sighed.

"No, your not fine." Stefan said. "Your were scared to death in there."

"It was just a shock okay? Look I have to get ready, Jeremy will be here soon."

"Are you sure you want to go?" he asked.

"Yes." I said. "I would rather be with a whole crowd of people than be on my own."

"But do me a favor?" I asked. "Get the straightner for me?"

"Sure." Stefan walked into the bathroom and came out holding a straightner.

"Thanks." I said.

I walked out and went into my room to get ready.

About an hour later, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in!" I shouted.

Jeremy walked in the living room to find me standing there.

He stopped when he saw me. "Wow, Marni you look beautiful."

It was true. I had straightened my hair and put on dark eye make-up and had red lipstick on.

I was wearing a strapless corset dress that came down to my knees.

The corset part was dark purple and the skirt was white with black lace at the bottom and had black material over it that had been pulled up on one side.

I was wearing a pair of black heels that took a lot of skill wearing and a little black handbag.

"Thanks." I said.

Damon walked downstairs at that point.

"Come on let's go!" he said, walking to the door.

Jeremy gave me a puzzled look.

"Damon's taking us."

"Why?"

"Because it's fun to show up in style." I said.

"Style?"

I laughed. "Your going to love the Camero."
