My hair is perfectly curled against my face, I push two Bobby pins in, one on each side to keep my hair out of my face.

"Do you want to use some of my makeup?" Katherine asks and I look in the mirror again.

My eyes always look a little too large for my face but I prefer to wear minimal makeup, I usually just put on a little mascara and lip gloss. I am pretty proud of how well I take care of my skin so why hide it if I don't need to?

"Maybe a little eyeliner? I say, still unsure.

She gives me a smile and hands me three pencils. One purple, one black, and one brown. I roll them around in my fingers, deciding between the black and the brown.

"The black will match the color of your eyes," she said and I smile.

"Your eyes are so nice, want to trade?" She jokes.

She has beautiful green eyes, why would she want to trade with me? I take the black pencil and draw the thinnest possible line around both eyes, earning a proud smile from Katherine. Her phone buzzes and she grabs her purse. "Tyler's here" she informs me, I grab my purse, smooth my dress and slip on my white heels.

Tyler is waiting out front of the building, rock music blaring out of the rolled down windows. I can't help but glance around to see everyone staring. I keep my head down and just as I look up in the front seat. He must have been bending down. Ugh.

"Ladies." Tyler greets us and Stefan shoots me a glare as I climb in behind Katherine, getting stuck sitting behind Stefan.

"You do know that we are going to a party not a church right Lena?" Stefan said with a smirk.

"Do not call me Lena please. I prefer Elena," I warn him, I hate being called Lena.

"Sure thing Lena," he says and I roll my eyes. I will not banter back and forth with him, he is not worth my time.

After what feels like ages we finally pull up to the huge two story house with overgrown vines sprawling up the side. THETA XI is painted in black letters on the massive house. It looks like some from a movie.

"It's so big, how many people will be here?" I gulp. The lawn is full of people holding red cups, I am way out my league here.

"A full house, hurry up," Stefan says and gets out of the car, slamming the car door behind him.

I watch as multiple people high five and shake Stefans hand. No one else I see is covered in tattoos like Tyler and Katherine. Maybe I can make some friends here after all.

"Coming?" Katherine smiles and I nod as I climb out of the car, making sure to smooth my dress again.
