Just a quick warning, I do not own any of these characters except from Blair. The rest all belong to the writers of The vampire diaries, Twilight and Glee.
============================================================
Gasping, I wake up from my nightmare dripping in sweat and uncontrollably shivering, what the hell!? I never have nightmares. Ever. I've always bragged about my immunity to night terrors- but holy heck. Guess I can't do that anymore. I look at the time and realize SHIT its 8am, im supposed to leave in 5 minutes- I am not going to be late for my first day back at school. My dad calls up the stairs,
"Blair, get down here now, we needed to leave an hour ago!"
Confused, I quickly reply, "Dad, its only 8, we've got 5 minutes-"
"Blair, the clocks went forward last night, its 9am, get up and get ready!" he shouted hurriedly. No time to shower, just great. I guess I'll have to smell for the first day. I rushed around my room, throwing on whatever smelt remotely clean, and throwing my hair into an untidy and unbrushed pony. There was no time to waste, so instead of brushing my teeth I whisked about a bit of Listerine mouth wash and popped two pieces of peppermint gum into my mouth. Fuck, where did I put my phone again?
"Dad!!" I called, "Can you ring my phone? I don't remember where I put it!", he was so rushed he didn't bother to listen, but someone else must've had perfect timing as I could hear my phone's ringtone playing on repeat. I threw my duvet up in the air and my phone flew across the room, hitting my maple-tinted hardwood floor, I hear it crack instantaneously as it makes contact with the wood panels.
"Great. Just fuckin great." I murmur under my breath, "Best hide this from dad..." I run over, grab the phone, and answer the unknown caller.
"Hello?" I say, still sprinting about the room trying to find my school bag and some form of money. The dial tone plays, and I roll my eyes. Must've been a prank call, or dad could've actually heard me from the kitchen. I throw my phone in my newly found bag and jog down the stairs.
"Ready!" I announce, heading towards the front door. I look around, wondering why Dad didn't reply. "Dad? You coming?" I ask aloud. "Dad?" Sighing, I walk out the door, and see the car is gone. Guess he left without me... just brilliant. Now I have to be even more late and walk to school.

I arrive at the school building at around 9:35, still groggy from waking up only 35 minutes prior. I burst through the main entrance doors, and enter reception to sign myself in, only to be greeted by a just as groggy Damon Salvatore.
"Hey Damon, you get up late too?" I question, signing a form the receptionist gave to me to sign myself in as present today.
"I'm only late when I wanna be, Jinx." He smirks, he's always called me by my middle name- ever since 2 years ago, when we met. He looks me up and down, "Uhh did you crawl out of a bin bag today?"
"Did you not seem to catch the fact that I woke up late?" I respond sarcastically, chuckling quietly and then handing the form back to Ms Smith. Such a basic name for a basic woman. I turn to Damon again and say "Cya later alligator." whilst shooting gun fingers at him, and make my way swiftly to Lab class.

Trying to get into Lab class was hilarious, I stood outside the door for 15 minutes just making faces at Edward (Cullen- My lab partner to be clear), and edging closer and closer towards the door, before Mr Barker eventually noticed me through the glass panel and forced me to actually learn. I took my seat next to Eddie and proceeded to tune out of whatever atoms or what-not he was on about. I twisted my head around and noticed Rachel staring at me, trying to get my attention. I winked at her and hand gestured 'call me' and turned back round. To my surprise, she actually did, and my phone began to ring in the middle of lab. Thanks Rach. I put my phone on silent and sneakily showed her my middle finger before continuing to fall asleep with my eyes open.
"You okay Blair?" Edward asked. He's so gentlemanly. In all honesty, no, I was not. I hadn't slept very much last night because I stayed up watching random 2am YouTube videos, you know the ones, where the dude makes houses and slides out of mud. Or maybe that was a fever dream. Hmm. Either way, Ed probably didn't want to know my whole life story, so I just replied with your average:
"Yup. Fine. You?" However, he didn't believe my answer.
"Blair, you know, if you ever need to talk, I'm here for you. You don't need to pretend to be alright around me." He looks at me caringly as he says this, I think I can see a genuine glimpse of worry in his eyes, but I assume it's just the tiredness playing with me.
"Honestly, I'm fine. A bit tired but hey, what can ya do?" I smile and start scribbling random notes on a piece of paper so at least it looks like I've done something this lesson.
"I have a shoulder if you need a pillow to sleep on." Ed mentions, I chuckle thinking he's kidding around, but I look up and his face is dead serious.
"We're in the middle of a class Einstein, do you want me to fail?" I take a good long look at his shoulder though and damn it does look comfy. He nudges himself closer to me.
"Go on, I'll wake you up if Sir gets anywhere near us."
"Fine." I reply, gladly giving in and resting my exhausted head on his homemade pillow. He's a bit cold and weirdly frigid but it's comfortable. I close my eyes, and when I open them, Lab is over.
"No complications with the teacher at all then?" I grumble, wiping the sleep away from my eyes.
"Allll good!" Ed smiles warmly and walks away. I wonder what it's like to be so positive all the time, if it get's tiring being the happy one, or if he's just genuinely happy 24/7. Bet he has some deep dark secret, I swear all happy people have a deep dark secret. He's so mysterious, I know nothing about Ed's home/personal life and yet I still feel like he's one of my closest friends. Weird.

Sorry for the lack of Rachel in this chapter but I swear she will get more scenes in chapters to come :))
