.09 | You're Undead to Me

The next day when I woke up I sat up in my bed and looked around remembering everything that happened last night, the dance, the confusing break between Brian and I, Damon hurting Caroline.

I didn't know if I wrote in my diary last night, so I decided to now. I lifted my pillow, but it wasn't there. I lifted my other pillow incase I put it there, but it still wasn't there. I sat in my bed in confusion, I guess I lost it, it doesn't matter it's not like I had my crush in there. I got out of bed and opened the bathroom door to find Vicki brushing her teeth with my toothbrush, she looked at me in shock, shouldn't I be the one shocked since she's in my bathroom using my toothbrush and not wearing pants.

"I'm sorry, I'm almost done." Vicki apologized.

"It's okay I guess, just take your time." I said shutting the door. I went over to the closet and took out a white tied crop top with pink popsicles, skinny jeans and white vans. It's not what I would usually wear, but at least it's cloths. I walk downstairs and into the kitchen to see Jenna and Elena talking.

"Hey you look nice today." Elena says as I grab a bowl of cereal.

"Thanks." I say.

"Brian told me what happened." Elena said. I shrugged.

"I don't want to talk about it." I say walking out of the kitchen with my bowl of cereal. When I finished I decided I would walk myself to school. I grabbed my bag and made my way out the door.

When I got to the school I made my way to my locker in silence, I kept my head low. I could hear the whispers as I passed people in the hallway, I'm sure everyone knows by now that Brian and I are taking a break, but what's the big deal who cares. I slam my locker and I make my way to class before Tyler stops in front of me. I look up at him then move aside and quickly make my way to class. I wasn't in the mood to talk to anyone, I just wanted this day to be over.

Later that day Caroline asked me to go to her sexy studs car wash thing and I agreed, I just wanted my mind off of things. I was wearing a navy blue top bathing suit with a jacket and shorts with a blue bandanna as a headband.

"Why do you not want to show off your body, you're single aren't you?" Caroline asks. I give her a glare.

"I don't know." I say looking over at Brian who was shirtless and washing a car with a bunch of girls trying too hard to flirt with him. I turn my head away and see Elena and Stefan.

"This event is called sexy studs you know." Caroline states to Stefan and Elena. Caroline and I walk away from them as I wave to Elena she gave a wave back. Then I turn to Caroline.

"The event is doing fine." I tell her.

"This has to be perfect." she says ignoring my input on the event.

"What about the pay booth?" I ask finally getting her attention. We make our way over to the line and start taking the money.

"We're out of towels and those shimmy things." Elena says walking over to us.

"Alright I'll get them." I said standing up from my seat and make my way to the school.

As I walk the hallways it starts to get a little chilly. I get to the supply room and try to open it, but it was locked. I hear a noise and turn around in nervousness. I look down the hall and no one is there, I turn the other way and see Damon standing in front of me. I give a small shriek and step back and really look at his face, he looks pale.

"Soph, help me...please." he whispers to me.

He disappears and my eyes widened, that was the first time Damon spoke to me since the party. I look down the other end of the hallway, I know that this is a stupid idea, but what if he's really in trouble. I run down the hallway and make my way to the Salvatore boarding house.

When I get to the house I could still hear Damon's voice in the back of my head.

"Soph...help me."

I walk up to the front door I pushed on the door and saw that it was open, it took me a second but I head inside. I was about to go upstairs but I felt something that made me go to the basement.

"Help me..." Damon said. I get down the basement and see a door, "Sophie."

"Damon?" I ask walking to the door. In between the bars I saw Damon sitting on the floor, his face was dark, but pale.

"Damon!" I say.

"You found me." he said slowly. "Let me out." I paused, he hurt Caroline and who knows what he could do to me if I let him out. I back away.

"I...I don't know." I say.

"I will explain everything." he said. I paused again and before I knew it my hand was on the door as I pulled it open.

"No!" said a voice.

He pushed me away, he struggled to keep the door shut, but Damon forced it opened pushed the man then snapped his neck. My eyes go wide as I scream and run up the stairs trying to get out. I get up the stairs and almost to the door when Damon was in front of me. I screamed again then ran the other direction, but Damon grabbed me to stop me.

"Let go!" I yelled. My head felt dizzy and I slowly stopped the struggle, I felt like passing out.

"Sophie, stop!" he said softly. I eventually stopped when I fell on the floor, all I could see was black, but I knew that I was going to die.
