Brooklyn's P.O.V.

I woke up somewhere so unfamiliar with people I don't even know. I was scared because I couldn't remember a thing that happened. My parents were cooking me breakfast in the loft and now I'm here. I was kidnapped?!
"Get away from me!" I shouted to the man sitting right by me. I got up and almost fell when another blonde haired man caught me.
"Easy there, love."
"Where am I? Where's my parents?" I shouted.
"Calm down, you're experiencing some memory loss. I'm Stefan, I'm your friend." I nodded my head feeling a connection with this man.
"But my parents?"
"I'm sorry Brooklyn," The man known as Stefan apologized.
I shook my head and I felt my tears building up.
"No, my parents and I were having breakfast just a few hours ago. You're lying."
After I got out some anger, I see a familiar face, actually three familiar faces.
"Elena! Bonnie! Car!" I yelled while embracing them all. They put me in the middle of the group hug and I felt safe from those men.
But wait, if their here then... is it true?
"Are my parents-"
"I'm sorry, Brooke," Bonnie said. I started to cry and I felt pain then I started to get these flashes of pictures.

The funeral of my mother's death and me locked in this basement with my dad. My fathers last words and me limping with Damon.
Denial
Anger
Bargaining
Depression
Acceptance
The five stages of grief and I remember going through it and now I'm going through it again

"I remember," I say, my voice a little rough.
"What do you remember?" Damon asks.
" My mother and father's deaths. You helping me. That's all I remember of you though."
Suddenly another girl came into the room who looked exactly like Elena. But Elena was over by Stefan. Huh?
"Look who's awake. Now try to not to get yourself killed this time."
"Wow. You are really rude. Is this your sister?" I asked Elena who seemed afraid but Katherine laughed and I felt Damon grab my arm holding me close.
Damon took a few steps in front of me and looked down at the clone. The other blonde man whom I didn't know pulled me behind him.
"Deals off Katherine."
"Fine, guess I'll take back what I offered," she said looking at me.
The man who held me had a crazy look in his eye as he stared at the woman.
"Remember that I spared your life. Don't give me a reason to take it away." I looked up at him and I could tell that he was very angry.
"Watch out, Brooke."
Was that a threat? She left the room and then the house.
"What was that about?" I asked.
"In due time," Damon said still angry.
"Can I take a shower? I smell."
Everybody still look scared.
Everybody snapped out of it and acted like everything was fine. Elena took me into the bathroom and helped me since I was really weak and I could barely stand. She helped me strip and I looked in the mirror taking in my appearance. As I feel the cut on my face I get another flashback.

"Does Stefan have any... Friends?" Bethany asks.
"Stefan has lots of friends especially with the ladies."
Bethany had slapped me across the cheek cutting me with her nails.

I remember. I remember Bethany and how she tortured me. I looked down to my stomach to see blood smeared everywhere but the wound healed. As is my thigh but I looked so pale. I looked like I hadn't eaten in days and I just looked ill.
"Are you okay?" Elena asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine." She got a warm bath going as I stood in a robe that I could only guess as Damon's since I was in his bathroom.
"What's going on Elena?" I ask.
"You were killed but now you're back."
I rolled my eyes knowing that explanation was pathetic and probably just an excuse.
"Elena!"
"What?" She asks turning around.
"Truth please."
   She nods her head.
"You were going to meet your brother and he is a hunter. Him and his girlfriend were trying to get information out of you but killed you in the process.

Bethany stabbed me in the stomach and my vision started to fade. I died.

All the memories came to me. All the ones that happened to me while I met my brother which included Stefan and Bonnie.
"Oh yeah. So what's going on between me and that Damon guy?" I asked curiously because I was sort of attracted to him. I felt a connection.
Elena burst out laughing and I was so confused as to why.
"What?"
"You like him."
"Are we together? Is anything going on between us?" I ask.
"There's definitely something going on."
So me and Damon are together. Of course that explains everything. Why I feel so attracted to him and I think he feels that way too.
    Elena helps me get all cleaned and she wraps my leg in bandage because there was a hole oddly enough. She also put something on my cheek that was an ointment. She left to find some clothes and I waited in the bathrobe. I decided to wait in the bedroom and I saw Damon laying down on the bed.
"Well hello," Damon says.
"Hey," I say sort of being flirty. I sit down beside him and lay down as well.
"So how serious are we?" I ask. Damon had sort of the same reaction as Elena and it consisted of laughing, a wink, and well a kiss. He leaned in as did I and it started out simple. Then he deepened it and it was passionate but sadly short.
"Well, I hate to break it to you, but we're are not dating."
"So you kissed me for no reason?" I asked with a smile on my face.
"I wouldn't say that."

Omg that moment though. Poor girl. No not really. I just wanted to say that I really appreciate all my readers. Without you, I definitely would not be writing. I just wanted you guys to know without you that this book would never be happening. Love you all!!!😘
