Mel's POV
I wake up and look around and see I'm in Damon's room. How did I get here?
"Hello sleepy head." I turn to the voice and see Damon. I look down and see I'm in different clothes.
"Don't worry I didn't peek." I look at him and shake my head.
"Now. Why did you do what you did yesterday?" He asks. I shrug.
"Because I can. I want to prove a point that I don't listen to anyone." I say not making eye contact with him. Why am I still embarrassed?
"Why won't you look me in the eye?" He asks quietly. I stay quiet and sigh.
"Look at me Melanie. Please." I shake my head and I get out the bed. I walk out the room into my room here and get changed. I walk downstairs into the basement grabbing a blood bag and drinking it. I sigh in relief and go back upstairs. I go to the door only to be stopped by Damon.
"Move Damon now." I demand.
"No." He smirks smugly.
"Don't make me do something I'll regret later." I say. He shrugs and so I use my magic and pin him to the wall. I walk out and walk home. I go straight up to my room and pack my stuff. I pack every little thing. I need to get away from here. I'm going away for awhile. Where's Emma anyway? I heat someone clear their throat behind me and I turn seeing Damon there.
"Where's Emma?" I ask turning back to pack.
"She is out running an errand." I nod and continue packing. When I'm done I sit on my bed. Where to go?
"Please don't go Melanie. Please. Stay with me." I shake my head and I feel the tears well up in my eyes threatening to spew. I put my head down and breathe in and out a few times and when I feel the tears are gone I look up only to see Damon right in front of me.
"Why won't you look at me anymore? Ever since I saw you singing you don't look at me as much as you can. Why?" He asks. I go to reply but close my mouth. I stand up and grab my bags taking them downstairs ignoring Damon's protests. I put them by the door and reach for the house phone. I dial a cab number and it says it'll be here in 5 minutes.
"You can't always run from your problems Melanie. So don't." Damon says. I can't let him live like this. I turn to him and look him straight in the eye.
"I love you Damon. I really do but if I'm going to be running away I can't keep risking you to follow me. So..." I pause looking him in the eye compelling him,
"You will forget you ever loved me. You will forget I ever existed. You never met me. I'm going to England and I'm not returning for a couple of years. You will not remember me until I say so. Give me phone and once I walk out that door, you will forget about me all together." He hands me my phone and I hear the cabby driver honk his horn. I look at Damon and see him looking at me. I kiss him on the lips and walk out the door with my luggage leaving my old life behind for good.
"Where to, Miss?" The driver asks.
"The airport." He nods and starts driving. I look at my house and see Damon leaving it confused. He looks my way but shakes it off. Tears start falling and I just stare out the window. I grab my phone and text everyone except Damon saying 'Leaving Mystic Falls for a few years. I'm going to Australia. Not saying where but this is goodbye until I return.' I turn off my phone and just listen to the radio until we reach the airport. I go to the booking station and say,
"One way ticket to London please." She nods and asks for my passport. I hand it her along with the money and then she hands me it back with my ticket. I sit in the waiting area until I hear my plane being called. I hear my name being called and I turn seeing The Originals. My eyes widen and I stand shocked. They catch up and give me a hug each.
"I gotta go guys." I say.
"Please don't leave." Rebekah says. I sigh and shake my head. I hear the final call and I kiss all of them on the cheek except Bekah. I give her a hug and then I run to the gate. I pass the lady my ticket and I head in. I sit in my seat and the plane takes off. I soon fall asleep.
