VAMPIRE DIARIES BOOK CLUB: THE AWAKENING – CHAPTER 10

Vampire Diaries: Chapter 10
Written by Amanda
Edited by Rose / Krystal

Elena writes in her journal during trig class, mentioning she’s not pressing charges against Tyler or Dick, but both have been suspended and kicked off the football team. The rumor going around is that Dick is responsible for what happened to Vickie and she is worried about their return to school, especially what it means for Stefan. Which brings her to Stefan. Waking up this morning, Elena began to worry that it never happened, but when she saw him at school she knew it was real. What confuses her is that Stefan doesn’t seem as happy as her despite how he acts when they are together.
