She was five years old the first time she saw him. She was on the swing that hung from an old tree in the town of Mystic Falls.
She was trying to push herself when he came, wearing one of his dashing suits.
"Hello there," he smiled at her. "Are you in need of any help?"
"The swing wont move." She pouted. "I think I can fix that." He went over to push her a little. As she found her pace, her smile extended on her face.
"Thank you Mr. Nice man!" By the time she said that he was already gone.
She was eight years old the second time she saw him. She had hosted a birthday party in the towns park, of which she sat alone by the side.
She was on the edge of crying when he came by, wearing one of his dashing suits.
"No one should be sad on their birthday," he said as he sat beside her. "What troubles your heart, little one?"
"Bonnie and Caroline are upset with me, and didnt come to my party." She stated sadly. "I’m sure they will show up eventually," he extended his hand and gave her a small plushed pink bunny. "Happy birthday, lovely"
"Thank you mister-" As she turned, he was already gone.
She was twelve years old the third time she saw him. She was playing football with her friends when the ball had rolled down into a ditch.
She was struggling to reach the ball when he came by, wearing one of his dashing suits.
"You are going to get yourself dirty," he said as he got closer, "What is it you wish?"
"The ball has rolled down when we were playing football." She pointed at the ball. "I see." He went down, and reached to fetch the ball. Her smile grew but before she had the chance to thank him, he was already gone.
She was seventeen years old the fourth time she saw him. She had been kidnapped by vampires and waiting until someone came to fetch her.
She was in utter fear when he came by, wearing one of his dashing suits. He smiled as he got closer.
"Hello there."
