The Blue Eyed Gilbert

Chapter 88

Mel's POV
Do they seriously think I'm that stupid? I knew once Elena asked me how I was holding up that they were trying to get emotion out of me. I'm a great actress if I do say so myself. I hear someone sit next to me and I see Emma. She looks at me and frowns.
"Now now. Melanie. Why do you have your humanity off?" Doesn't she know Damon died?
"Maybe because my true love, your brother, is dead!" I shout. She looks at me in shock.
"D-Damon is dead?" She stutters with tears in her eyes.
"Yes." I say. She blanks her face and says,
"It still doesn't mean that you turn your humanity off. You need that emotion to feel human." I look at her in disbelief.
"Are you actually kidding me Emma?! Try being in my situation and then tell me that I shouldn't do it!" I shout. She snaps her head towards me and her eye twitches in anger.
"I have been in your situation! Where my true love was killed! I loved him with all my heart and now he's dead!" She shouts.
"I still didn't turn my humanity off! If I did, I knew I was looking for an excuse to escape the emotions!" She continuously shouts. I roll my eyes.
"Ha ha ha. Guess what Emma? I. Don't. Care." I say shrugging my shoulders. She growls and tackles me to the floor. She punches me in the face and a fight just happens. Punches, kicks, slaps. The whole lot. We were finally pulled apart by Stefan, Elena, Bonnie, Jeremy, Tyler, Caroline. Basically the whole gang.
"I'm leaving. I can't handle you anymore Melanie. You want to be weak? Fine. But you do it alone. I was happy before I met you and I will be happy when I leave you. Good. Bye." She says walking out. I stand there in shock. My best friend has left. I collapse to the floor. She's gone. My best friend is actually... Gone. I quickly stand up and run out to find her. But I see her no where.
"Emma! Emma! Please! Emma! Come back!" I shout but it's no use. I have lost her.
"Emma." I whisper with my voice cracking. I feel tears in my eyes. Real tears. I go back inside, grab Lillian and run home. I put Lillian to sleep and I collapse on my bed. I put a sound proof bubble around my bed and cry hard and loud. She's gone! I will never get her back. I lost her. I cry harder as these thoughts repeat in my head but the next few stand out to me:
You're pathetic. You mean nothing. Everyone hates you. You will be better off dead.
As that last thought repeated constantly, I sat up. I grab a piece of paper and a pen. I start writing my suicide note. This is it. When I finish my note, I stand up and tape it to Lillian's back. I kiss her forehead. I breathe out and nod. I mumble a spell and make myself human. It's easier to kill myself while dragging it out. I go towards the bathroom and lock the door. I grab my old razor blade and study it. It was my old pain reliever and now, it's my life reliever. I put it to my wrist and press down hard. I drag it across and a deep self inflicted wound happens. I do it 10 times on each arm and go to do another, except I start feeling dizzy and light headed. I collapse to the floor and slip into darkness.

Emma's POV
After that fight, I walk out the Grill and head towards the Gilbert's house. I want to see how Melanie reacted. I see her on her bed crying her eyes out but then stopping. She sits up and starts writing. She tapes it to Lillian's back and kisses her forehead. She goes to the bathroom and I just wait. Half hour passes and I become worried. I slide in through the window and grab the note first. I read it over and gasp. I run to the bathroom and knock on the door yelling for Melanie to open up but I get no response. I break down the door and gasp at the sight. Melanie unconscious on the floor bleeding from wounds in her arms. She tried to kill herself. I pick her up and vamp speed to the nearest hospital. I run in human speed and start yelling for help. Doctors come rushing and take her from my arms. I sit in the waiting room. I call everyone and tell them that Mel is in hospital. After 5 minutes, everyone is here. They don't ask anything but just sit there. A doctor enters.
"Anyone for Melanie Gilbert." All of us stand up.
"That's us." I say.
"Right well. I'm sorry to say but Melanie has fallen into a short coma. If she doesn't wake withing 24 hours then she will fall into a proper coma and will have to be put in the ICU." He says. I nod.
"Thank you doc." I say. He nods and goes out. She is in a temporary coma because I was leaving. I shake my head and start walking towards the exit.
"Emma! Where are you going?!" I hear Elena shout.
"I'm leaving like I said I was going to." I say and just walk out. I go home and pack my stuff. I grab my phone and block Melanie from every social media. I'm leaving her so I have to go through everything to make sure it stays like that. I put all my stuff into my car. I start to leave and as soon as I reach the 'You are now leaving Mystic Falls' sign, I sigh. This is it. No looking back. I carry on driving. I'm going back to Ohio.
