October 21, 2010
It was a Thursday night and I was sitting at the bar all alone. I dared to not order an alcoholic drink as I was simply drinking some water. A frowned played my lips as I could not believe what has all been happening in this small town that use to be quiet. USE to be. If only it was truly quiet once more. Shaking my head slightly, I looked back down at the wooden bar, took a sip of my water and watched as my golden blonde curls fell down on the sides of my face. My blue eyes dared to not look up at all as I was not in the mood to talk to anyone at that moment.

I walk into the bar and run a hand through my hair. I take a seat in the corner up against the wall. I order a glass of Coke. I'm not in the mood to get drunk. I take a long sip and shake my head. I need to relax.
(sorry for awkward shortness lol)

A new presence came into the Grill and my eyes snapped up immediately. It could of been Tyler or heck even Klaus for all I knew. My blue eyes looked around slowly as I then saw a man I have never seen before sitting in the corner seat. Who in the world was he? Human? Vampire? Werewolf? Hybrid? Warlock? I personally had no clue.

I feel eyes on me and I turn to meet the eyes of a blond vampire. I can tell by her complexion and posture. I nod and offer a small smile in acknowledgement before taking another sip of my drink.

He saw me looking at him. Did I want him to see me looking at him? To tell the truth, I honestly did not care if he did see me looking at him. I then looked around the Grill to see others talking to one and other, so I decided to walk over there and talk to him. There was no crime against that now. My left hand gently grasped my glass of water as I then walked over and sat down besides him. "Hello there. My name is Caroline and you are?" Straight off the bat I was going to discover who this man was.

I extend my hand and offer a small smile. James, nice to meet you. I let go of her hand and take a sip of my drink. She's pretty. Really pretty actually. Debatably gorgeous.

I took another drink of my water as I then asked, "New in town or have I not seen you ever in this town?" I usually did know almost everyone in this town, but not this man. He must of been new no doubt. My eyes looked him up and down. He was handsome. As handsome as Klaus? That could be debatable. After asking my question I took yet another sip of my water.

I shake my head. No, I've lived here for two years. We're in the same English class. I chuckle. Don't worry about it; I isually don't go out of my way to be social. I take another sip of my drink and chuckle.

Could vampires blush? Well if they could, I would be blushing from ear to ear at that moment. This guy has been living in this town for two years and yet I have never seen him around, even though he was in my English class. Oh how idiotic I could be at times. "Well, sorry that I have never seen you before James. Things have been...very busy you could say for me." That was so true. This town was causing me to not have a full life anymore. All I had to concentrate on was being a vampire. Yay...

I raise my eyebrows and chuckle. Yes, being a vampire's tough. I look at her as she meets my gaze. I'm a hunter, but don't worry, I have no weapons on me, and I have no intention of killing you. I only kill those who deserve death. You don't. I take another sip of my drink.

He knew. He knew I was a vampire and he was not going to attack me? It was instantly that I pulled my drink close to me incase he put vervain in him. It was hard to not do that because, well, it was in my mind that I had to do that, but for some reason I felt like I could trust the hunter. Slowly, I nodded my head as I then said, "Okay. I will trust you." In the back of my mind, I remembered the story I heard of Rebekah trusting a hunter and it stayed there just in case. Just in case I had to run for my life.

I raise my eyebrows. Trust me? For what reason would you do that. You just met me. Granted, I know I have the mysterious handsome stranger appeal, but stranger danger, Ms. Forbes. I tease and chuckle.

Raising an eyebrow at him, I then replied, "I trust that you will not hunt me down unless I deserve it. Do not think so high of yourself there, Mr. Purser." Taking yet another sip of my water, my eyes were glued to him a bit. My mind was racing a bit, yet I did not know as to why it was racing a bit,

I raise an eyebrow and shake my head. If anything, Ms. Forbes, you should scold me for thinking too little of myself. I take another sip of my drink. Arrogance isn't a talent of mine. I say.

A small chuckled left form my lips. "Well, I will not scold you until you give me a reason to Mr.Purser."
