Matt could have stared at the words on the application form in front of him for the next hour, it wasn't going to change. Sitting in a booth in the newly re-opened Mystic Grill which Matt was soon to start another shift in fifteen minutes. He had debated calling in sick, but with this town's reputation people who were sick were normally dead or a vampire, werewolf.

That's what happened to the people in this town, but not Matt. He had to be one of the only people who was friends with vampires and werewolves who had yet to be bait. Well when Damon Salvatore was involved, he was bait to an extent.

Tapping his pen along the edge of the table, his head resting in his hand sighing to himself. This could be a whole new future for Matt and it could take him a lot of places, but still it didn't feel right. Matt remembered talking with Sheriff Forbes when he was a kid about wanting to join the police but that all got put on hold with school, Vicki and his mom running off with another dead-beat.

Bills had started to pile up and then everything went to hell when vampires and everything else came to Mystic Falls. Medical expenses that Matt had from when he drove his truck off Wickery bridge which landed him in hospital and Elena a vampire. He also remembered the warning that Sheriff Forbes gave him about getting out of this town and starting fresh.

But it didn't matter where Matt went, this supernatural crap was going to follow him. Rolling his shoulders, he straightened himself up and then filled in the rest of the application. Picking up the envelope that came with the form, he slid it inside and hesitated for a brief moment. Shaking his head he stuffed it inside and sealed the envelope.
