⛔Not of this Universe ✔(a Damon Salvatore story)

Chapter XV: End.

Damon stayed by my side all day and everyday until finally I held down my first meal. Damon had compelled a woman to let me feed from her, hoping that since it was fresh it would help. So far it was. I even was a bit warmer than I was before. But I knew something wasn't right. I could feel it. I kept it to myself though. Knowing how attached Damon had become. He was wasting his time with me, brushing my hair, trying to make sure I had ate something. Even had helped me with taking a bath.

Finally, I had gotten Damon to go out and enjoy himself for a change, told him to go have a drink with Ric or even torment someone for fun. It took a bit, but he did leave after he knew Stefan was here to watch me. If I did the math right, today was the day that Elijah would make his grand appearance. Rose and Trever taking Elena to receive a pardon on their lives. I hated that I would never know Elijah. He was one of the few characters I really liked. Damon was my number one though.

"Lex?" I sat up slightly to see Stefan was in the doorway, looking at me. I offered him a small smile which he didn't return. "You're not going to get better...are you?" I averted my eyes, shaking my head.

"I don't think so." I admitted. Stefan came in, plopping himself next to me and pulling me to his chest. It was a pity party. I knew it. But I accepted it, nonetheless. "I'm not made for this universe, Stef. I'm literally being ejected out." I pulled away from him, seeing his face was trying to hide the sadness.

"Does Damon know?" I shook my head.

"And he shouldn't. He doesn't need to go through this."

"Yet you do?" Stefan retorted. I rolled my eyes at him with a chuckle.

"I don't belong here, Stefan. I don't know why I was brought here, but I was. I'm not going to let Damon become even more broken than he already is." I told him.

"You don't think this isn't going to break him later? Alexa, this shouldn't be your decision-"

"But it is." I interrupted him. "Please leave me alone, Stefan." I told him. Stefan stared at me for a moment, the look of hurt running across his face before he stood up and left me. I pulled the covers off of me, looking down at the grey veins spreading around my chest. It looked like I was staked in slow motion, ironically enough right where Damon was supposed to stake Lexi so long ago. The real life of Lexi was catching up to me, whether I was ready or not. I stood up, looking around before pulling on a large shirt to hide the growing wound and heading down the stairs to the study. A bottle of bourbon in hand, I sat down at the desk, propping my feet up.

"What a way to go." I laughed out, popping the bottle open before taking a long gulp of it, only to cough some of it back up. Blood in my hand with he liqueur.

"Alexa?" I snapped my gaze up, wiping the blood on my shirt. My eyes widened at who it was.

"Kaiden?" I stood up from the chair, making my way to him, only to blink and he was gone. Tears were pressing at my eyelids, threatening to pass the floodgates. I choked them back, going back to the desk and chugging a huge amount of the alcohol. I drank for a bit, leaving an empty bottle as I fell asleep at the desk.

"Alexa?? Shit!" I heard someone mutter before I felt a breeze run past me, coming back as they spoke into the phone. My body felt heavy, not able to lift my head up anymore from exhaustion. "Damon- Damon! You need to come home. Now." I felt someone picking me up, cradling my body close to them as a breeze ran past us and a soft bed was connected to my back. "Alexa- Can you hear me?" I opened my eyes slightly, Stefan was blurry but I could still make him out. "Damon is on his way okay?" I hummed out at my eyes closed again. I felt him move my head around, "Look at me, Lex- God your burning up." He muttered before lifting me to lean against him, pulling the baggy shirt off of my body. He laid me back down gently before silence filled the room. "Oh Lex.." He muttered. I was curious how bad it was. It had been a while since I looked. I knew the veins had to have spread by now. I was dying.

"Alexa? What's wrong with her?!" I heard Damon shout, flashing over to my body, his eyes on the stake wound. "Was she staked??" He asked.

"Da-damon." I muttered out with a breath. He brought his eyes back to mine seeing they were half open.

"I'm here, Alexa." He whispered, climbing into the bed with me and pulling me to his chest. I could feel his hand stroking my hair. "What's happening, Stefan?" He asked his brother as he stroked my hair and pressed light kisses to my scalp.

"The universe is pushing her out. It's forcing Lexi's reality to catch up-"

"So I killed her." Damon muttered. "This is my fault. I killed Lexi in our original reality."

"This isn't your fault, Damon. You didn't kill Alexa. We don't even know why the world brought her here, but it did. You got to have her, even if it was just for a short time." Stefan tried to reason. I was going in and out of the world. My body was fuzzy and numb. Flashes of Lexi's real life flashing into my mind, like it was taking over.

"It isn't FAIR!" Damon yelled before lowering his voice and holding me closer as he watched the grey veins spread further, nearly my whole body was gone. "I love you.." He whispered as I let out a gasp, my last breath. My body going limp in Damon's hold as he cried and held me. Stefan tearing up at his brothers declaration. "I love you.. Alexa.." He kept whispering. But I was gone.

A/n:
So I like totally hated this story, liked it at first. But I decided to just LITERALLY kill it. I'm sorry if anyone actually liked it, but I couldn't write it anymore and I didn't want to leave the world just sitting there like I did with my Loki story. Please don't let this bad story experience prevent you from looking into my other storys that actually decently good. I also plan on writing new story's that are better than this one.
