*Damon’s POV*
I re-read the note over and over again before zooming up the stairs. I burst through my doors and on my bed are two small packages wrapped in parcel and string. I carefully open each packet slowly. The first is an iPod with headphones attached. I gently set it aside and open the second slower. This one is a framed picture of Lucy and I, smiling at the camera. My arm is thrown across her shoulder. I find another package in my bathroom and open it ever more slowly than the first. I find a bunch of pictures in an envelope. Some of them are of Skylar and I. The others of the girls and I, but I think my two favorites out of them are the one of all the girls, guys, and I and the one of Skylar, Lucy, and I. I flashback to that day and remember every small detail.
*Flashback*
“C’mon guys!” Skylar bounced on her heels. We all got in our respectable cars and drove to the beach. The whole way had been filled with conversation between Lucy and me.
“I love your car so much!” Lucy grinned and kissed her hand, before setting it on the dash. She pecked my cheek before getting out as we arrived at the beach. Dakota and Elijah were hand and hand as they walked towards the sand. Stefan had Kenzi on his shoulders and Klaus had Izzy on his back. Kendra and Jeremy were only friends at the time, but they were also hand and hand. Kol and Skylar were walking towards the beach, throwing fake punches and fake fighting. Once we had reached the beach, Kendra and Dakota had insisted on pictures. So everyone had lined up and we had someone take our picture, then Kol compelled him to leave, which he did.
“Alright guys, have fun!” Izzy rubbed her hands together before taking over her oversized t-shirt and had run to the water. All the other girls had run to the water to, except Skylar. She had held a huge camera. The whole day she took a variety of pictures. Later we had started a camp fire.
“Till then I walk alone!” Dakota sung softly. Everyone picked up the song.
“I’m walking down the line that divides me somewhere in my mind…” We all continued together. Skylar took a video and sometimes snapped pictures. We ended up falling asleep, then woke up the next day and stayed the whole day again. That is the day Lucy, Sky, and I all took our picture. We all were smiling and nothing else seemed to matter. Once we had arrived home Skylar had printed out copies and pasted them into her scrapbook of memories she kept. That was the best weekend of my whole one hundred and forty-nine years.
*Flashback ended*
Sky’s scrapbook! I think to myself. I race to her room and see Klaus staring at Izzy as her chest starts to rise and fall. Her eyes snap open. Her fangs show as she opens her mouth. He changed her? Oh god! I slowly enter Sky’s room. I find pictures taped up everywhere. I see thirteen hand prints on the wall. I, again, flashback to that day too and smile in remembrance.
*Flashback again*
“Guys, please. I want us to remember this time that we had together.” Sky had pleaded.
“I’m in.” Kol sighed.
“Me too.” All the girls had said in sync.
“I guess.” Stefan and Klaus shrugged. Elijah nodded. Jeremy grinned and Rebekah smiled softly.
“I’ll always be by your side little cuz.” I ruffle her hair. Sky rolled her eyes, but made us put our handprints on the wall and then wrote our name underneath in paint with a detail brush.
“It’s perfect.” She had given us all a huge group hug after.
*Flashback over!*
