WINTER
He has to be messing with me, this is crazy. I want to believe him. He looks so sincere, I don't know this guy though. He says he's going to show me, I guess I'm about to find out if he's being serious or not. He backs away from me and gives me a smile. "Just stand right there Winter and watch , try not to freak out" Me? freak out? Never! I snort and he smiles bigger at me. All of a sudden his hands start glowing and I gasp. What in the world? Is this some kind of magicians trick? Of course I haven't seen too many magicians, for all I know this is standard. I don't want to believe this could be real.His hands start getting brighter and a small flame appears in the palm of his hand "Holy shit!" I slap my hand over my mouth at my outburst. The flame disappears and Damon holds his hands up in a surrender motion, like I'm about to freak out and bite him. I just might. "Winter? are you ok?" Am I ok? I'm not sure, this is crazy. "I think so, how did you do that?" He hangs his head and lets out a sigh "Magic Winter, we all have magic. You just saw it with your own eyes" I did but I'm having a hard time believing it.
I'm standing here staring at him with my mouth wide open, still not sure what to say to him. One
second i'm worried about making these guys mad, the next i'm worried about my hands lighting on fire. What if they do? I hold my hands up and stare at them "Winter? It's ok, you're not going to catch on fire, I promise" I look to Damon
"Why are you doing this?" I say in a low tone "Why are you trying to trick me?" he's messing with me, he wants me to believe there's real magic so they can all have a good laugh later. Why would he do that? Why would the others let him do it to me? I'm just a big joke to these guys, it was all just a cruel joke. My breath quickens and my eyes are darting back and forth. "Baby look at me, I need you to breath for me, please" "I-I - I can't" its all I get out before I take off running. I hear him calling after me but I'm too hurt to listen to anything he has to say.
I rush to the apartment, it's the only place I have to go. What am I going to do? I should've known
better than to trust any of these guys. I think of Bash, how could he do this to me? I thought I was
special to him. He was just using me. He doesn't really care about me, i'm just the messed up girl that disappeared 8 years ago. I'm an easy target. What's the purpose of this? was I that messed up they thought it would be fun to mess me up more?
I'm balled up in the middle of the bed crying harder than I ever have. Eventually I wear myself out and fall asleep maybe my dreams will give me some kind of comfort.
