Everything was perfect for Vivienne. She had an awesome mother, who was practically the life of party, and she never complained.
In fact, Vivienne loved her mother, Jenna, more than anything.
However there were secrets about her that no one knew.
No...

Vivenne was walking down the hall when she saw Jeremy and Alaric in the history classroom, and stopped at the doorframe.
"Hey jer. Hey Ric."
Alaric looked up and Jeremy looked back.
"Oh and my cousin!" Jeremy said, "she loves the fantasy stuff too." He turned back to Ric.
"What?" She frowned with a small smile and walked further in.
"Oh, well that's really awesome. What have you found till now?" Ric Leaned forward.
"Oh- the- the fantasy stuff? Well- I've- I've found a bunch. Uh...skin walkers, sphinx, siphoners, manticore, basilisks, werewolves, hybrids, centaurs, vampires. Pretty much everything." She shrugged.
"Vampires, huh?" Ric's eyebrows raised.
She stared at the man with a slight frown, "....mhm..." she turned to Jeremy with a smile, "well, I think we should go. Don't you have English next?"
"Oh yeah, I do."Jeremy nodded, "we'll see ya later Mr. Saltzman."
Jeremy slung his arm over Vivienne's shoulder and the two walked away.
..••..••..••..••..••..••..
"So, I figured I could record a few sessions, because- well I'm very forgetful. And I'd probably ruin it all," Vivienne said as she kept her camera down on the table, "I have to hangout with Bonnie and Elena later but I thought I'd come here first."
"Oh, sure. Just make sure you don't show this to anyone else." Grams said.
"Of course."
"Okay, so, ah.. two-three days ago, I felt an earthquake. But it wasn't a regular one. It felt different."
"Is that why we're in a garden today?"
"Precisely,"
..••..••..••..••..••..••..
Vivienne munched on her fries, her glasses on her head so as to not get the salt on it.
"I can't believe you're adopted." Bonnie said, "I never saw it coming."
"And it gets weirder. I looked at my birth certificates, and it lists Miranda and Grayson Gilbert as my birth parents. None of it makes any sense." Elena said.
"Which is why you should ask Jenna." Vivienne said.
Elena groaned.
"First of all," Bonnie said, "the Elena I know would always wanna know the truth. Good or bad."
"And second of all?" Elena asked.
"You.. just found out that your boyfriend is a ..." her voice dropped to a whisper, "vampire," back up, "so..unless your birth parents are aliens," the three chuckled, "how bad can it be?"
"Ah- okay, look. I have to go to the store. My outfit to the dance is severely lacking accessories." Elena said and stood up.
"Okay, I'll pay." Bonnie said.
"We can split the bill?" Vivienne suggested.
"Sure." Bonnie said.
Elena bid them their goodbyes and walked out, leaving the two.
Just as they turned around, Damon walked infront of them.
"What. Do you want from me?" Bonnie glared at him.
"I think we need a fresh start." He said.
"You tried to kill me."
"But I didn't. And if I wanted to I would have. Does that not count for anything?"
"Technically it's quite the opposite. Cause you know, she could literally throw you across the room right now." Vivienne said.
"Oh come on, she wouldn't! Would you Bonnie?"
"You know I can start fires with my mind." Bonnie raised an eyebrow, "fires kill vampires, right? Just stay..the hell away from me."
"Oh shit." Vivienne gave Damon a 'you screwed buddy' look.
"Everything okay over here?" Vivienne looked over to see the Ben kid who-according to Caroline- was a senior hottie who graduated from their high school a few years ago walking upto them.
"Yeah we're fine." Damon said.
"..I wasn't talking to you." Ben said, standing next to Bonnie, and stared down Damon.
"That is tense. Anyway- I'll go and pay the bill." Vivienne said and walked away to the cash counter.
She pulled her glasses down to her eyes as she went through her purse.
"..Vivienne sommers, huh?"
She looked up, and bim bam boom.
Who was it?
One of the guys Ava introduced her to on career night.
The one who was staring at her intently for some.....odd..reason..
"..oh, hi." She smiled, "wow- I- i didn't know you worked here."
"Well I do. So does Ava. And apparently Emma as well."
"Ah- Emma's your sister, no?"
"Yeah," he nodded, "yeah she is."
"..ah..."she nodded a few times, but her lip, "can I ask you something..?"
"Sure go ahead."
"I uh-" she cleared her throat, "kinda forgot your name.." and sent him an apologetic smile.
He chuckled, "no worries. Its Louise. Louise Herrera."
"Ah- so- basically Emma would be-"
"Emma Herrera. Yep." He nodded.
Vivienne nodded slowly, looking at him.
"Well this is awkward." She said and smiled awkwardly.
"Sure is," he said with a smile looking at her as well.
"...well uh- I should probably....pay the bill and...go.."
"Oh yeah, ofcourse." Louise nodded his head and handed her the bill.
She quickly scanned through it before taking out the money and giving it to him.
"By the way, are you going to the dance, tomorrow?" Louise asked her.
"Uh...are you?" She asked.
"Well Mrs. Thompson got me stuck on punch duty, so yeah. Yeah I am." He nodded.
"Ah....sad..well I'll see you there then."
"So you're coming too?" He grinned.
"Mhm!" Vivienne smiled.
"Great then! I'll uh," he nodded, "I'll see you there then."
