Hayden POV


My heavy eyelids slowly flutter open and a pool of blood was formed on my pillow, I slowly sit up I feel my nose, and feel the blood, I quickly rush to the bathroom,

Yesterday was a dream, talking to Klaus about art, how it is one of my favorite hobbies, along with reading, Elijah walked me home,

I never have a peaceful night like that

I start to feel extremely nauseous and run to the toilet, I start vomiting dark blood,

I gasp as the episode slowly calms down,

I brush my teeth and hair, I get dressed, a sweater and dark jeans and a pair of sneakers my bag over my shoulder as I walk out the door my mother calls out to me,

"Remember Hayden, me and your dad are flying to Paris tonight, so your on your own for a few weeks." She says

"I know." I say

I stopped asking questions, when I ask questions, I get told how much of a bother I am, and I am no longer a child I can take care of myself,

I close the door behind me and take a deep breath, I don't have a car, so I just walk to school, I really don't mind it,

As I was walking, a car pulled along the sidewalk, I see it was Stefan,

"Need a ride?" He asks

I smile at him

"Sure." I say with a smile,

Let me give you some insight Stefan he knows about my sickness to an extent, He witnessed it by accident, so I had no choice but to tell him, and when he found out about my parents, I guess he made it his duty to look after me,

I made him promise not to tell anyone, about any of it, he promised, sure he didn't like it but he promised,

I get in the car,

"I heard you had dinner with Klaus and his family." Stefan says

"Yeah, it was fun, I didn't realize how much Klaus and his family know." I say with a smile,

"Just be careful Hayden, they are originals they are dangerous." Stefan says in a serious tone,

"Stef you know I can't judge people, so I just want to make my own easement." I say with a smile,

He sighs,

"Just be careful okay." He says

I smile placing my hand on his arm,

""I promise Stef, I'll be careful." I smile

He smiles back at me and we arrive at school,

We go our separate ways,

I head to art class, to paint my feeling into a canvas, my unhappiness, my sorrows, what it would be like to have no limits, to be free,

I paint a bird in the sky, flying in the sky, free,

I paint a bird in the sky, flying in the sky, free,

"That's beautiful." I hear making me drop my brush,

I look over my shoulder to see Rebekah,

"Sorry doll didn't mean to scare you." She says

"It's alright you just startled me." I say with a smile,

"Where did you learn to paint like that?" She asked,

"I guess I always loved to paint, it takes me away from the world around me." I say

"Each stroke of the brush makes me feel a little in control." I say

She chuckles

"You sound like Nik." She says

I chuckled,

"I love to paint," I say with a smile

"Could you show me, art isn't my strong suit." She says

"Then why are you in here? you could have gone somewhere else right?' I asked as I tilted my head,

She chuckled

"Because Nik asked me to keep an eye on you." She says with a smile

I tilt my head,

"What can I say we like you, you are different." She says

I smile,

"I like you all too." I say

I switch to another canvas

"Okay, I'll show you." I say with a smile
