Alexis was first and she recieved the Artistic Trait.
Then it was Elena's turn and she received the Eccentric Trait.
"It's alright, we will be with you ever step of the way," Damon said.
"But the kids and the teachers," Alexis started "What are they like?"
"The teachers are alright," Stefan answered "Some of the kids are nice but others are mean and snobbish. But it will be fine, don't worry."
Over the next 5 days Damon and Stefan introduced the girls to a good amount of the kids at school. Elena made friends really quickly but Alexis didn't really like most of them. She always hung back while her sister and brothers laughed and joked with their friends. When they would ask her to join them she would always make up an excuse and leave.
"Alexis, come talk with us."
"Sorry Elena, I have to...umm...go to the library and do research for my essay."
As Alexis walked away Elena knew this was a lie. They were in the same classes and they didn't have an essay to do that week. Elena thought about it some more but then put it aside and went to play with her friends.
On Saturday it was time for the boys birthday...already. I called a bunch of the parents around town and invited them and their kids to the party.
Then I drove Stefan and Damon to Llama Stadium that morning so they could attend a free game. It was going to be the game of the year. The Bridgeport Llamas were playing against their arch rivals, the Riverview Gophers. If we won we would be the Simmerbowl Champs and bring home the Leismann Trophy. The boys were really excited, especially Stefan.
After I made sure they got to their seats and had their cell phones, I met Antonio at the place where we would be getting the boys their presents. They would be delivered an hour after the guests arrived (while the boys were distracted.) When we got back home Antonio got the cakes out and made drinks and I made Hamburgers, Hot Dogs, and Fish and Chips. We also had the boys room redone a little bit since they were going to be teenagers.
After I set the food out my phone began to ring.
"Hi Isabella, it's Richie."
I immediatly began to think something was wrong with the boys. Richie played for the Llamas and he was the boys favorite player.
"Hi Richie. What's going on? Are they boys ok?"
"Yes, they are fine. I was just calling to see if you wanted me to bring them home since I am coming over for the party anyway."
"Oh sure, that is fine. Thank you."
As I hung up the phone I knew that this would not sit well with Antonio. He hated Richie but I decided I would deal with him if it came up.
15 minutes later all of the guests arrived and the boys were whooping and hollering because the llamas had won and they were really hyped about it. The kids swam and played for a few hours and polished off all of the food I made. I put all of the dishes in the dishwasher and called everyone in for cake.
First was Stefan, he got the Hopeless Romantic Trait
The it was Damons turn and he got the Flirty trait
"You will do fine sis. Besides you will be in high school with us in just a few days."
He gave her a hug and then went inside. The girls played while the boys searched for jobs on the computer. Stefan was hired on as a Commercial Actor making §30/hour and Damon got a job at the spa as a Receptionist making §30/hour.
"Dude, I wonder what the girls are going to be like at school."
"I can't wait to find out. This is going to be great," Stefan replied.
"I think it is time to work on some of skills. You know, to impress the ladies," Damon said with a sly grin.
Stefan decided to work on his charisma and athletic skills but Damon decided to take a different approach. He worked on his guitar and drumming skills, they looked pretty cool to him.
