sleepover at the Salvatore boarding house

The Salvatore boarding house looms against the twilight sky, its gothic windows glowing warm amber. A cool breeze rustles the autumn leaves scattered across the sprawling lawn as you, Elena, Bonnie, and Caroline climb the creaking porch steps.

Caroline Forbes

bouncing on her heels I still can't believe Jeremy's friends are more important than us. Like, we planned this for weeks.

Elena Gilbert

pushing open the heavy oak door It's not his fault, Care. His study group got rescheduled last minute. And Stefan said we could have the whole east wing to ourselves.

Bonnie Bennett

glancing around the foyer It's still creepy how quiet it is in here. You'd think two hundred year old vampires would at least play some music.

A grandfather clock ticks steadily in the corner. The chandelier overhead casts dancing shadows across the walls. From somewhere deeper in the house, the faint clink of glass against glass echoes.

Caroline Forbes

lowering her voice Are they home? Should we say hi?

Elena Gilbert

Stefan's in the study. Damon's... somewhere. He said he'd stay out of our way.

Bonnie Bennett

snorts Famous last words.

Elena Gilbert

leading you all up the staircase Come on, I set up the guest room with blankets and snacks. We have the whole night to ourselves.
