Found

Away

I was home. I heard Aunt Jenna in the kitchen and I sccuried up the stairs and ran to my room and locked the door and broke down. I knew I wouldn't be able to see him again. In a week, I would lose him. I won't be able to come first thing in Biology and wait for his black leather jacket to walk through the door. I won't be able to hold his hand while we walk through the hallway. I won't be able to look into his eyes and see that light blue color sparkle in the light. I'M GOING TO LOSE HIM. That's what's is going to happen. He will leave, call me for the first few weeks then get caught up in his studies and forget about me. FOREVER. He will move on and never look back. He will be someone successful in Harvard and make a bunch of new friends. He will forget about me. I wanted so badly for him to stay. I should've figured this out before all of this. I knew I would have to leave everyone after this semester and go off to college. I would've had to leave Damon as well. We can't be friends till the end of time. As amazing and perfect as that sounds, its not possible. Fairy tales are fantasy. Fiction. They don't exist. This is reality. I was gonna lose the one person I care about so much. What's wrong with me? It's not his fault he is leaving. He is living life, it was gonna happen soon. I shouldn't have left him like that. Tears won't stop flowing down my cheeks. 

I know what I have to do. I have to isolate myself from him. I can't say goodbye to him. As selfish as it is, it's the best thing to do. If I don't see him, he won't have to say goodbye. He can leave knowing that I'm gonna miss him. He won't have to say goodbye. We will meet again. I'll wait for him. This doesn't necessarily mean it's goodbye.

--FEW HOURS LATER--

I can hear someone downstairs ringing our doorbell, I consider answering it but don't want to take my chances. I stood by the door and waited for Aunt Jenna to answer for me. There were mumbles, I can't make out. Finally I heard footsteps come closer to me and I quickly got up from next the door and jumped on my bed and grabbed my phone doing my best at trying to act like I wasn't listening. The door slowly opened and a head popped through the door.

"Elena, hey um Damon is here. He said something about wanting to talk to you.", Aunt Jenna gave me a slight smile. She knew that me and Damon were best friends. I mean it was obvious, we hung out almost everyday.

"No, I can't right now. I talked to him earlier. It didn't go so well.", I hated turning down Damon.

"How do you expect me to make him leave? Without even inviting him inside", Aunt Jenna sounded annoyed.

"Please Jenna, it's a long story. Just this once.", I had to plead to make Jenna agree.

"Fine then act sick!"

I nodded happily and faked coughed to please her and gave her a loving smile. "Thank you!"

I heard the door slowly click and heard Jenna's footsteps disappear softly as she went down the stairs to Damon. He was going to be disappointed.
