I walked up to school with a frown on my face. I didn't want to go to school today. Stefan said I should get out not be so Alone in my thoughts.
I walked up to Tyler."Hey."he raised his eyebrows at me."You look like you had a shity night."I scoffed shoving him slightly."I had a great night."
He only smiled because I couldn't say that with a straight face."yeah sure you did."I rolled my eyes. Matt threw the ball towards one of his friends.
Matt keep glancing at my brother and Elena and I knew Tyler was going to say something about it.
"Look, there's Elena and her new boyfriend."I looked over at where my brother was walking."now, what are they doing?"Matt gave him a look that said nock it off.
"Oh there walking, walking, walking yep. Right into the sunset."Matt caught the ball. He looked over at them with a frown."You're a dick."
I chuckled. Matt was not wrong about that one"while you just Stand there looking like one of those little yard trolls."Tyler looked at Matt with a smile.
I nudged him."Gnomes."Matt and I corrected. Matt caught the ball once more."why do you let her walk man."Tyler said ignoring the fact that I was there."I don't. But I can't do anything about it."
Tyler rolled his eyes."of course you can."Tyler said looking over at me."Right?"I licked my lips throwing my hands up."Hey I can't be apart of this that's my brother."
Tyler looked back at Matt."I mean come on try a little to get her back man."Matt threw the ball."What am I supposed to do Ty she made her choice."
He caught the ball"let her know she made the wrong one."He dropped his backpack and caught the ball before Matt could."I wouldn't do that."I warned as he got ready to throw it at my brother.
"Ty don't!"Matt tried to get him to stop."Nah let him do it."I said with a smirk. Tyler looked over at me giving me a huge smile."See she's his sister and is okay with it."
Tyler threw the ball as hard as he can. It flew in the air before my brother turned around and caught it."Ha I told you man."I said with a chuckle. Tyler look flabbergasted.
That made it ever funnier. Stefan looked over at me before he nodded and threw the ball back. I smirked when the hit of the ball almost nocked Tyler over.
I gave my brothers thumbs up. He only smiled at me and turned around."Damn."Tyler rubbed his chest."Now I warned you. My brothers a pro at football."
Matt looked over at Tyler."I would listen to her next time."That only made my smirk grow."I'm gonna get going. I would put an ice pack on your chest."
Matt chuckled as I walked away"Man was I wrong about her."Maybe Stefan was right. Being at school was a good idea because I was already in a better mode then I was yesterday.
I walked into history class and sat down. I got out my sketchbook and flipped it to the page. I was working on. I frowned when I seen it was half done Jeremy.
I forgot about that. I flipped it over and started on a hole new project."world war two ended in?"Mr tanner asked walking around. Nobody answered his question.
I licked my lips drawing the mountain in my sketch."Anybody got anything? Miss Juan?"She shook her head that she didn't know."1945."Mr tanner answered for us.
I shook my head and ignored Mr tanner. I could feel my phone buzzing in my pants. I knew who it was Jeremy hasn't stopped leaving me alone since the other day.
"Mrs Gilbert."Elena looked away from my brother. I totally missed the question."Hm."She answered with a smile"Pearl harbor?"Elena shook her head telling him she didn't know.
"December 7, 1941"I looked over at Stefan who answered for her."Thank you Miss Gilbert."I chuckled at Mr tanner."Anytime."I raised my eyebrow looking back at my brother.
"Very well. The fall of the Berlin Wall."Mr tanner asked yet again Stefan answers."1989. I'm good with dates sir."Stefan glanced over at me.
I shook my head giving him a warning. I had a feeling this wasn't going to turn out vary good. Mr tanner and my brother seem to have a challenging thing going on.
"Are you? How good?"Mr tanner looked around then back at my brother."Keep it to the year."Stefan nodded looking up at him.
"Civil rights act."
"1964."
Mr tanner scoffed.
"John F. Kennedy assassination."
"1963."
Mr tanner took a step forward.
"Martin Luther king."
My brothers pulling himself father in with Mr tanner.
"68."
"Lincoln."
Tanner keep getting closer and closer.
"1865."
I could help but feel proud of my brother.
"Roe versus wade."
"1973."
Tanner stood right in front of Stefan hands in pockets.
"Brown versus bored."
"1954."
Mr tanner was getting annoyed you could see it all over his face.
"The battle of Gettysburg."
"1863."
Each times the question got harder for normal kids anyway.
"Korean war."
"1950 to 1953."
Mr tanner leaned forward"Ha! it ended in 52."Well that wasn't vary professional now was it. Stefan looked t him confused. Stefan was right it was Tanner who was wrong.
Mr tanner turned around proud of himself."Uh, actually, sir it was 53."Tanner bit his tongue."look it up somebody quickly."people started to flip through there books.
"It was 19....53."I chuckled shaking my head it was really funny how Mr tanner could win against my brother the class started to call for him. I leaned over and patted his back.
"Well done brother."He smiled and me before looking at Elena she clapped for him with a huge smile. I sighed of relief when the bell rang. I quickly stood up and stuffed my things in my bag
After school I walked out onto the yard with my shorts and tang top cheerleading practice was tonight and I was thankful I was able to join. I sat down next to Bonnie
"Hey."she smiled up at me."Hey. Look at you."I pretended to stretch my legging. even though I didn't need to."So is this dance confusing."She shook her head no."Just that basics."
I nodded licking my lips."Just follow my lead."She said looking over at me."I can pick stuff up really easily so this shouldn't be a big deal."She smiled nodding.
"Ahem."I looked up at Elena who I didn't even know was there."Oh my god you're here."Bonnie stood up from her spot. I chuckled looking up at them.
They shared a hug. I really needed to find my own friends. I mean this group is the only ones I talk to."yep, I can't be sad girl forever. The only way to get things back to the way they were are to do things that were."
He bent down and stretched."I didn't know you joined."Elena looked over at me. I nodded."Yeah Bonnie suggested it."Elena smiled at Bonnie as she stretched.
"By the way, I'm so into the you liking my brother thing."I folded my legs with a blush."I don't think he likes me back."I say honestly. She shrugged."He talks about you constantly."
I raised my eyebrow. I couldn't tell if she was lying."he's always like how Stefan's sister."I hummed standing up and stretching my arms."I feel like it would never work out."
She looked up at me with a frown."Maybe if he gets over the drugs."I say sitting back down."okay we need to change the subject."Bonnie said sitting down.
"Oh, and you're coming to dinner tonight."Bonnie smiled getting into another stretch."I am."Elena nodded."you, me Octavia and Stefan."I raised my eyebrows.
"Hey I didn't know anything about this."Elena looked over at me."Don't worry you can just hang out with Jeremy."I rolled my eyes. She chuckled and looked over at Bonnie.
Bonnie gave her an annoyed look she definitely didn't like my brother. Bonnie glanced at me and then back at Elena."you have to give him a chance."
Elena looked back at me and held up her hand."You gave his sister a chance."Bonnie looked over at me and then at Elena."Tonight's no good."I didn't understand why she didn't like Stefan.
"Have you seen Caroline, I texted her like 100 times."Elena smiled looking away she knew what Bonnie was doing."Don't change the subject Bonnie Bennett you're going to be there."
Elena leaned forward to stretch."Fine I'll go."I chuckled shaking my head."So will you."I raised my eyebrows as she looked at me."I think Jeremy could use someone like you."
At least she was okay with it she could be annoying and not be."what makes you so sure he even wants me there?"She rolled her eyes with a smile."Stefan has told me a lot about you. You're a good person."
I couldn't help but smile. I was thankful I had a brother like Stefan."And I know he wants you there. I've seen him try and text you like a lot."I licked my lips.
"Why haven't you been answering?"I shook my head with a sigh."Like I said, I don't see it working. even if I wanted it to. I like him but with the drugs I don't think I could be with him."
She nodded in understanding. She grabbed her water and took a drink of it."Seriously, where is Caroline."Bonnie said not want to talk about Jeremy anymore.
"I don't know it's not like her."Elena but her water down."I'll try her again."I froze up when Damon's car pulled up. Caroline was in the front seat."uh."Elena said looking past Bonnie
Bonnie turned around."oh, my god."I sighed when Damon kissed Caroline."really Damon."I whispered shaking my head."That must be the mystery guy from the grill."
"That's not a mystery guy that's Damon Salvatore."Bonnie glanced over at me I stood up with them."Salvatore as in Stefan and Octavia."I nodded with embarrassment.
"Yeah...that's my brother."Elena looked over at me."Not a big fan?"She questioned I shook my head."I don't consider him as a brother." Caroline got out of the car with a smirk.
"I got the other brother hope you don't mind."I gagged shaking my head Damon threw a smirk my way. I scoffed and flipped him off.
"Sorry I'm late girl I was uh busy."I looked at Elena confused as she eyes Damon."All right, let's start with the double pike herkie hurdler."I smiled years of YouTube had already taught me that.
I stood next to Bonnie as I did the dance watching her every move even though I knew how to do it. Caroline counted down. As I moved my arms to the side.
I then turned around."five, six, seven, eight."I touched my hand to my foot before turning back around. Bonnie keep looking over at me checking if I was doing okay.
"Elena sweetie, why don't you just observe today?"Elena went to the vary back. I smiled when I seen Stefan in football gear. He has always loved the game.
After practice I went home with a smile on the big game is soon. So it would be my first time cheering people I was nervous.
