The past is never done and buried

I turn over repeatedly in my bed, trying to distract my mind from my conscious. I look at the time and see it was only around two in the afternoon, making me groan. I didn't know I stayed in bed that long.

I wanted this week to end already. My phone had been ringing and I ignored it, since I know it was Jonah. I felt bad from last night because I was honest. I was too honest. However, honesty is the best policy.

I want to kick myself for being a hypocrite.

I sit up when my phone goes off again. I pick it up and see it's a text from Matt about a party tonight. I sigh, as my head starts pounding, so I get out of bed and drag my feet, going to the bathroom. I open one of the cabinets, taking my emergency Advil.

Beside Klaus drama, I was trying to figure out why I didn't get affected by Katherine's death. Not emotionally, of course. But, I didn't understand why I didn't wail when she died. Probably because her and I never connected much, I guess. She was never a concern for me anyways.

I down the pill and chug it with my bottle of water. After, I splash my face, washing off most of my ruined makeup. I look in the mirror as I dry my face with a wipe.

I brush my teeth before taking a quick shower. After getting out, I felt better as my headache subsided. I go to my closet and take out my grey off-the-shoulder dress that had light blue stripes. It was simple and casual to me, so approvingly, I leave my hair up into a loose bun and move on towards my makeup.

I grab my makeup bag and redo my makeup, finishing off with my nude lipstick. It was around four o'clock when I was done, so I decided to slip into my flats and carry my grey wedges, knowing my feet would hurt if I just wear the wedges. I head out to the jeep, going to the Tyler's now so, I don't want to be stuck in traffic.

I put the key in the ignition, letting the radio play as I drove and letting my thoughts fade to the back of my mind.


When I get there, I seemed to be on time, seeing as there was a lot people here. I get out the car, taking my keys and shoes with me. The doors were open, allowing anyone to come and go. I walk up the front stairs and go inside, seeing crowds of people I've never seen before. Most of the faces, I know of since they went to school with me, but the others were strangers.

"Rowan!" A voice called and I turn to see Tyler walking up to me, pushing people while doing so.

"Hey, Ty." I greet, side hugging him, seeing as he had beer in his hand.

"You look amazing, Ro." He complimented and I blush lightly.

"You don't look too bad yourself." I compliment back, seeing as he wore a dark long sleeve shirt that fitted him well. You could see all his muscles practically popping out the shirt.

"Thank you. Thank you." He smiled, "Can I get you a drink?"

"Yeah, maybe something stronger than beer?" I wonder and he nods with a goofy grin. When we were together, sometimes we would sneak into his dad's alcohol cabinet and get some vodka or scotch before going to the Lockwood cellar to be alone. We would get drunk and just giggle as we watched the stars.

"Okay, I'll be back." He says and disappeared off into crowd. Remembering about my shoes, I walk off to upstairs to Tyler's room. I was glad to see it was empty, so I plop down on his bed and kick off my flats, before putting on my wedges.
