Chapter 25:
Few minutes later....
Salvatore Boarding House:
Light: Damon!! Come down here!!! I brought you a gift!!
Then he walks down the stairs.
Damon: What?
He didn't even look towards me when he asked that but when I didn't answer then he look towards me and get shocked by seeing Anna with me.
Light: Well!! Now you can ask her about Katherine and I'm going to see Rebekah.... Sooo have fun!!
Then I walk towards my room. And when I open the door, I find Rebekah naked. Then I walk inside the room but not before closing the door.
Light: How can you be so beautiful?
I'm just mesmerize by her ethereal beauty.
Rebekah looks at me, a slight smirk forming on her lips.
Rebekah: I didn't think you'd be so speechless!
She step closer to me, her eyes still locked on mine, making my heart race.
Light: How is it that every time I look at you, I feel like I'm seeing you for the first time?
I take a step forward, my voice soft but full of affection.
Light: You're more beautiful than I could ever put into words!!!
Rebekah blush at my words, and I can't help but smile at the sight. Then I clear my throat awkwardly, suddenly wanting to change the subject.
Light: So... would you want to go to the career night with me?
Rebekah: I'd love to!!!
She gives me a quick kiss on the lips before turning to walk towards the closet to change.
Few hours later...
Mystic Falls High School:
Rebekah and I are strolling around the school, checking out the different stalls set up by students to share information about the various career options available.
I turn towards Rebekah with a curious smile.
Light: Did you like anything?
Rebekah: Hmm... Yeah!!! I think I'd really like to do fashion designing!!
I nod at her words and give her a proud smile.
Light: I also think that's a perfect career for you!!! After all, you've got such a great sense of style!!
She grin at my words.
Rebekah: Thanks!!! I think it would be fun to make my own clothes someday.....
Then she smirk at me.
Rebekah: After all!! I've had over a thousand years to see all types of clothing.... So, I'm sure I could make something truly unique!!
I chuckle, imagining the endless wardrobes she's probably seen throughout her long life. Then I hear someone calling my name, so I turn towards the voice direction and then I see Elena, Caroline and Bonnie walking towards me. But before I can say anything to them, Caroline takes my hand and pull me towards a stall. Then I read what was written on the board but before I can tell her it is a good choice, Bonnie ask her a question.
Bonnie: Broadcast Journalism?
Caroline: Yes!! Broadcast Journalism!!
Then she turn towards Elizabeth, who has just arrived.
Caroline: Why are you looking at me like that?
Elizabeth: You don't even read paper.....
She said this awkwardly to Caroline.
After hearing her words, Caroline becomes sad and tries to walk away, but I grab her hand, pull her towards me, and hug her. And by seeing the situation, Elizabeth is the one who walk away from the stall.
Light: I think..... it is a perfect career for you because you are very talkative person....
At my last word Caroline hit me but I just chuckle at her mood swings.
Light: Not to mention!! You're already great at organizing everything. Journalism needs someone like you who can handle multiple tasks at once!!..... And if you don't read the paper, it's never too late..... you can start now!!!
Then Caroline look at me with twinkling eyes.
Bonnie: Exactly!! You've got the perfect personality for it! You're so confident and always know how to grab people's attention! You'd be amazing in front of the camera!
Rebekah: You're already great at communicating. It's perfect for you!!
Elena: Honestly!!! Caroline, you've always been a leader. You speak your mind, and that's exactly what journalism needs. People will listen to you.
Light: If anyone can make it happen, it's you, Caroline!!
Then Caroline turn towards all of us.
Caroline: You guys really think so?
I nod.
Light: Definitely!!
Then I kiss her on the lips.
Then I turn towards Bonnie and Elena.
Light: So!! What about you ladies... what career did you choose?
Bonnie: I don't know... Hmm... I never really thought about it! But I'm sure about one thing is that I want to travel around the world!! I want to see different places..... want to know different cultures and eat all types of food from around the world!! And..... At first I wanted to travel around the world by myself but now I want to go with you!!
I smirk at her.
Light: Well!! I already did that!! Soo..... you need to find a new partner!!
At my words Bonnie hit me softly and give me mock serious eyes but she can't help but smile at me.
Bonnie: Well, sorry about that but you're stuck with me!! Because I already decided that you're going with me. No matter what!!
I give her mock salute.
Light: Yes Ma'am!!!!
At that all of the girls laugh at me. Then all of us turn towards Elena to hear what career she choose.
Elena: Hmm... I wanted to be a writer!! My mom sort off... pushed me into that direction from the time I was able to read. She supported me.... encouraged me.... bought me my first journal..... and then she died. And I can't see myself being a writer anymore, that was something that we shared...
For a few minutes, we all stood in silence, each of us unsure of what to say.
Light: Okay!!! Do you remember what I said to you on that dinner night?
Then she shrug her shoulders in response, indicating that she doesn't remember.
Light: That's you should try to do everything..... But if you feel like it is not fun anymore!! Then you should quit and try new things!!
Then I give her an encouraging smile.
Light: So!! You should give writing a try and if you think you don't like it.... then do something else!!
After listening my words, she hug me.
Elena: Thank you... Thank you for coming into my life!!
