"You have a new name, not a new face."

['Abigail']

I knock on Elena's door, "Elena! Get your butt out here!" I yell, Elena opens the door, a small smile on her face, "okay, let's go, Bon Bon wouldn't be too happy with us not in the car." I joke, trying to lighten the 'your parents died I'm sorry' mood, Elena nods "of course." She says, we walk to the car and she sits in the front, Bonnie begins driving, "so Grams is telling me I'm psychic." Bonnie begins, "Don't you mean Psycho Bon Bon?" I say playfully, she rolls her eyes, "Our ancestors were from Salem, which isn't all that, I know, crazy? But she's going on and on about it, and I'm like, put this woman in a home already! But hen I started thinking," Elena turns her head and looks at the graveyard, I frown slightly, "I predicted Obama, and I predicted heath ledger, and I still think Florida will break off and turn into little resort islands." "Bon Bon, you clearly are the one supposed to be in a home, or mental asylum, whatever works." I tease, Bonnie ignores me "Elena! Back in the car." She playfully yells, "I did it again, didn't I? I-I'm sorry." She apologizes, "you were telling us that... " she trails off, "that she's a psycho now." I say, "Psychic, I'm a psychic now." Bon says proudly, "right.. oKay.. then predict something" I say, "about me." Elena says, "I see..." she's cut off by a bird hitting the wind shield, we all gasp as the car swerved, Elena breathes deadly as Bonnie says, "what was that?! Oh, my, god! Elena, are you okay?" She says, "it's okay. Im Fine." Elena reassured her, "it was like a bird, or a plane, it came out of nowhere." I say, "really, I-I can-cant be afraid of cars for the rest of my life." Elena says, "I predict that this year is going to be kick ass. And I predict that all the sad and dark times are over and you two are going to be beyond happy." Bonnie says, "hey! I'm happy!" I protest, while Elena and Bonnie smile at each other, Bonnie starts driving to the school, once we arrive at the school we walk in, "major lack of male real estate. Look at the shower curtain on Kelly beach. She looks at hot- can I still say Tranny Mess?" I ask, "no, that's over." Elena says, "ahh, find a man, coin a phrase, it's a busy year." Bonnie says, "boys are problems, which is why we are all single and probably forever alone cause we are too good for anyone." I say, Elena and Bonnie chuckle, Elena turns to see Matt staring at her, She waves at him, but he just walks away, "he hates me" she sighs, "yeh he does." I say, "No, he doesn't. That's not hate, that's You dumped me, but I'm too cool to show it, but I'm secretly listening to air supply's greatest hits. " Bonnie says, "Elena. Oh my god." Caroline says hugging her, "how are you? Oh, it's so good to see you. How is she? Is she good?" She asks, "she's here, Carol" I say, "I'm fine, thank you." Elena says, "Really?" Caroline asks, "yep, much better." Elena says, "oh you poor thing." Caroline says, hugging her again, "okay, Caroline," Elena says strained, "okay, I'll see you guys later?" she says walking away, "no comment." Elena says, "I'm not going to say anything." Bonnie says, "I'm going to find Tyler and Vicki, cya." I say, walking away from them, "Abi!" I hear a voice say, I turn around and see Tyler, "just the man I was looking for!" I smile, "I'm going to find Vicki, wanna come?" He asks, "hell yeh, she's probably with the crackheads." I say, he grabs my hand and pulls me along, "hey Vicki!" Me and Tyler yell, "I knew we'd find you here." I say, She goes over to Tyler and wraps her arms around him,  "hey Pete Wentz called, he wants his nail polish back" Tyler says, "Pete wentz Huh? How old school T.R.L of you. Carson Daly fan?" Jeremy shot back, "oh, Ty, be nice be nice. That's Lena's little bro." I say, as Vicki holds him back, "I know who he is, I'll still kick his ass." He says, pulling Vick into a kiss, I sigh, "Yo, Jer, how much do I owe you for last time?" I ask him, "nothing, you're Elena's friend, as long as you don't tell her." He says, I smile, "thanks dude." I say, He grabs my hand and we walk into the school, "Jeremy, good batch, man." Some dude says, Jeremy walks into the boys bathroom, still holding my hand, "damn if this is where you're going to make out with me you better be kidding." I say, he rolls his eyes, as he begins to drop his drops into them, "we aren't dating." "I know I know but-" I'm cut off by Elena barging into the bathroom, she grabs his face and looks him in the eyes, "great. It's the first day of school and you're stoned." She says, "no he's not." I say, she ignores me, "where is it? Is it on you?" She begins trying to find drugs, "stop, all right?! You need to chill yourself, all right?" "Chill myself? What is that, stoner talk? Dude you are so cool." Elena says, "look, stop! I don't have anything on me. Are you crazy?" He says, trying to push her off him, "you haven't seen crazy." I mumble, "Jeremy!   I gave you a summer pass, But I am done watching you destroy yourself." Jeremy goes to stand up, "No, no, no, you know what? Go ahead. Keep it up. But just so you know, I am going to be there to ruin your buzz every time, Got it?" She says "Jeremy, I know who you are. And it's not this person. So don't be this person." She says, softly, "I don't need this." He pushes back Elena, elena sighs, she takes my hand and we walk out of the bathroom, when we walk out we bump into... Stefan Salvatore, I feel my breathe hitch in my throat, "uh, pardon me. Um.. is this the men's room?" He says, "yes. Um, we were just, um.. we were just..." I stutter, shock clear in my face, "it's a long story." Elena says for me, we go to walk away but he steps in our way, until he steps out of it, "thank you." I say, we walk to our history class, "once our home state of Virginia joined confederacy in 1861, it created a tremendous amount of tension within the state. People in Virginia's northwest region had different ideals than those from the traditional Deep South. Then Virginia divided in the 1863..." mr tanner says, I block him out, already knowing all of this, I notice Elena glancing at Stefan, I sigh
