Sadie’s POV
My day dreams have become more real. I just kissed Damon. Well, that’s what my mind thinks. I have been seeing him all day and then he appears on the beach. I’m going insane, I miss him so much and he just appears whenever I think of him... which is most of the time. A part of me wishes he was really there, but another part wishes he would leave my thoughts, so I could get on with life without the pain.
I had always visualised Damon near me, but that was just imagination, this is different, it’s like he is actually there...
I kissed him because it was the best I would get, and even that felt real. He kissed back and said he was there. More dreams, I fell asleep on the sand and he appeared in my dream. That’s just common sense.
I know tomorrow I will wake up in bed and it will all just be a fake memory. I know Damon would never come back for me, he hates me. I’m a vampire slayer... technically. I haven’t seen another vampire since I left, that I know of, and my ring hasn’t bothered me.
And last night, my nightmares weren’t as vicious, I called for Damon like I always did but this time he came, he held my hand and protected me. The nightmares faded and I was left with Damon, I looked at him for what seemed like forever, until the sun came up and I fell back into reality.
After I kissed Damon, I had to leave, it was becoming too real, soon enough I will think he really has come back, and I refuse to be that insane.
Who am I? What am I becoming?
I climbed up and walked straight back towards my apartment. I was so dark, a small comfort. That is, until I saw a pair of glowing red eyes and a glint of something silver... a knife?
No... A scythe. It was death. He had come back. He was here. Three years without the fear of him. Now he was back along with the memories of Damon.
Damon’s POV
Sadie stopped kissing me, leaving her lips barley touching mine. I could taste her breath, it felt like fresh air at last. I heard her heart beat; making my heart skip a beat, if that was possible.
Then, she tore her self away from me and walked up the beach. I sat in shock as I watched her red hair sway behind her as she went. She disappeared into the blackness. I followed quietly after her, staying hidden. I listened to her thoughts, she thought she was mad. How could I make her believe I was here?
Then she stopped, fear showing on her face. I followed her eyes and saw what terrified her.
Death.
He was here too.
Anger flared through me as I watched him glide towards Sadie. His hand extended to touch her, to take her away. I reacted quickly, but not fast enough, a bright yellow light filled the road, lighting everything up, and Death screeched and disappeared in a cloud of smoke. Running away, coward.
Sadie's knees seemed to give way and she dropped to the floor, silent tears falling from her eyes. I came up behind her and slowly wrapped my arms around her; she fell back in me so I was cradling her in comfort.
"I miss you so much Damon!" She cried. She still didn’t believe. "When you’re far away it’s so hard." She ended in a whisper.
"Sadie please, I’m here. I’m with you. Open your eyes and look at me, see me!" I pulled her around so she was facing me, she reluctantly opened her eyes, but they showed nothing. She had brought the wall back up like she had three years ago.
"Sadie, listen to me. I really am here. I’m real. I came here for you." Her eyes softened.
"Why do I torture myself?" She whispered.
