When you were mine

Chapter 10

I had it all mapped out. Start to finish. My life I had worked out how it would go to as much detail as I could. I would go to college and fall in love. At the time it would seem perfect but once we faced the real world we would break. So we moved on and then I would find the one. We would get married, have kids and everything would be perfect. We'd have our problems but we would work through them. Together. That was the grand scheme, my perfect plan. And then you came into my life. Instead of just throwing the plan in the bin you ripped it up and put it in the blender. Now that I've had you though, now that you're gone. How am I supposed to function without you?
Damon's POV
I walked in the school halls on the Monday not at all prepared. People were gossiping and whispering as per usual. Cassandra and Katherine had both confirmed they'd be coming to school today. I got to my locker to find Amanda was there, a part of me was glad. She would serve to be a good distraction.
"Have you heard the news?" Amanda asked and smiled sweetly.
"No. What news?" I asked.
"The whole twin thing with Alex and Paisley!" She exclaimed.
"Oh. That. Yeah I heard. Aren't they going here now?" I asked her. Amanda nodded eagerly, then she traces a finger up and down.
"Yeah. So I was thinking that we could skip class, hang at my place?" She raised a brow suggestively. I would take anything to not see Katherine. It just hurt too damn much.

The girls were busy doing stuff so it was just the boys as lunch.
"Do you guys reckon that you'll have kids?" Jake asked.
"Yeah." We all admitted.
"But there's so much that comes with kids. The whole supporting thing." Aiden pointed out.
"The biggest thing is the names. What would you name your kids?" Jake asked.
"John and Mary." Sam decided.
"Lydia and Scott." Aiden decided.
"I'd name my kids Alice and Seth." They all raised a brow in my direction.
"Nora and Derek." I decided.
"You guys ready for the football game on Friday?" Sam asked and just like that the conversation changed. What an odd thing to ask? Then my brain wondered to who Jake's friend could be. For a moment I had considered the possibility that it could be Paisley. But that was ridiculous. We were brothers and brothers didn't lie to one another like that. Not on such a massive scale. Someone sat down next to me. I turned my head and the breath was knocked out of my lungs as I laid my eyes upon her. Katherine. This wasn't Paisley. I reminded myself and she smiled.
"Hello boys." A smirk upon her lips.
"Katherine." They all scrunched up their noses, revolted by her mere presence. I inhaled and exhaled.
"So there's a football game huh? Hope you don't mind if Cassie and I come." She raised a brow.
"Of course not. After all it's a free country." I ground out through my clenched teeth.
"Marvellous. Heard from Robert earlier. He thinks he's close to cracking the location of my sister. If any of you are in contact with her, I'd let her know she's got three months. Tops." Then Katherine got up and left.
"God I hate her." Jake muttered.
"We barely know her." Aiden countered. 
"She was raised by the psycho who stabbed me! Who practically killed Piper, broke Diana's leg and shot Damon! He's crazy and therefore she is too!" Jake hissed.
"But she has been helping us out." Aiden pointed out.
"They're crazy Aiden! Her best friend who is the twin of my girlfriend thought it would be fun to impersonate Alex! What if Paisley comes back and then Katherine starts impersonating Paisley too huh?" Jake demanded. They seemed to have a silent conversation and I got the feeling that they knew something that I didn't.
"Is something going on?" Sam asked.
"Nothing." Jake glared at Aiden.
"Right. Nothing." Aiden replied sarcastically.
"Don't you start with me!" Jake snapped.
"Hiding this friend of yours from everyone? I'm sure that'll go down well when the truth comes out!" Aiden snapped.
"You'd do the same in my shoes." Jake growled.
"No. I wouldn't." He countered. They continued arguing and I rolled my eyes.
"Shut up. I'm sick of you two arguing. You're constantly at one another's throats and it's gotten old." I told them.
"Well it wouldn't be like this if Jake were honest." Aiden snapped.
"If I were honest? Don't you understand that lying is killing me?" Jake demanded.
"Knock it off!" I snapped and they went quiet. The bell rang, signalling that lunch was over. A part of me was relieved to leave the arguing.

I made it inside the gas station. But one look at that pie made me walk out again. I couldn't do this. Not when it reminded me of Paisley so much. I could hear my voice on the radio inside and groaned as someone turned it up. Double hits tonight then. I paced in front of my car. I had to go in this irrational fear was stupid. If I could just buy one pie and eat it then everything would be okay. It'd be alright and I could start to heal. Start to move on. That's what Paisley would want. Knowing that she wouldn't get to come back for who knows how long. I sucked air into my lungs and walked back inside. Each word and movement was painful. Almost unbearable. But I bought the pie and walked outside. I hadn't seen my leather jacket since the night everything went to hell. I guess Paisley still has it. I sat down on the hood of car and sank my teeth into the pie. I forced myself to eat the whole thing. This was the only way that I could possibly move on. And once I was done eating the pie... I felt better. Like a small piece of me had healed itself for simply eating a pie. I could move on. I will move on. I told myself. Not because I wanted too. But because I had too. Because inside this was destroying me.
