Directions (Sequel to Paths//Teen Wolf Fan Fiction)

Chapter 27

It felt kind of agiven now. Funerals.

I had been to so many. Jenna's, John's, mom and dad, Vicki's, everyone's.

I walked with the feathers in my hand, tears in my eyes threatening to spill. I pushed past a tree, Scott and Stiles by my side, both in black suits as I hugged my black cardigan.

I came to the funeral, seeing Matt, Caroline, Jeremy, Elena and Damon. I cleared my throat, holding the feathers in my hand wand walking towards Elena. Everyone turned around, Elena bursting into tears and running towards me. I caught her in my arms, holding her close as we cried. We pulled away, she nodded to Scott and Stiles, walking forward to the tree stump with me. We lay our feathers down. Bubbling with tears. Elena ran back to cry with Caroline as I lay a kiss on a feather, walking back to Damon. He wiped away a tear on my cheek with his thumb. I sobbed a little looking back to Scott and Stiles who stayed a little further away.

"We ring this bell in honor of Bonnie, in remembrance for her" Jeremy rung his bell, laying it back down on the tree stump as we all watched, memories of Bonnie running through my mind.

I remember holding her as she cried over her Grams' body, I remember her asking me permission to date my brother. I remember her risking herself time and time again for me and Elena. Everything for her friends.

"I'm not sure what else to say" Jeremy looked like he was ready to burst into tears. Atleast he was going to see Bonnie for the rest of his life.

"She says that she's not going anywhere, that she has been here all along. Bonnie has watched you have the summer of your life" Jeremy said, as if Bonnie was telling him what to say, but of course she has.

"And I saw you happy, and I know you think now that you can't have a normal life that you have to be there for everyone, but you don't. Everyone will find their way, so you are gonna repack your things, you're gonna go back to college, and you're gonna live it up" Jeremy repeated Bonnie, his eyes drifting to Elena. I held on to Caroline's hand, squeezing it as we both cried.

"You didn't do anything wrong, Matt. You know I would have sent you 300 e-mails back if I could. I miss you"

"Caroline...I watched you decorate that dorm room like your life depended on it" Jeremy said. I giggled a little, Caroline laughing as tears dripped from her cheeks.

"And I know that college isn't everything you expected and that you feel like something's missing, but you'll be okay" Jeremy said.

Jeremy then turned to me, my heart froze, every sense in my body rising as something cold stroked my arm. Bonnie.

"Clara...you are the strongest girl I have ever met. I watched you, heart broken and run down and you've picked yourself up again. You deserve the happiness Stiles gives you. You're gonna be just fine without me" Jeremy said. I pulled my hand from Caroline and wiped away a tear, hearing leaves crunching behind me. I whipped around, seeing Tyler standing with a rose. My heart broke all over again. I sighed, running to him and jumping into his arms.

"It's okay" Tyler whispered in my ear, I pulled away nodding, Caroline looking back to Tyler. She obviously knew everything that had went down with Tyler and I, I told Elena and no doubt Elena told everyone. But Caroline still loved Tyler and I could tell Tyler would love Caroline again. They were good for each other.

I walked back over to Caroline, tears in her eyes as she stared at Tyler.

"Go on" I whispered. Caroline giggled, running into Tyler's arms. I turned to Matt, he was standing there, staring at the grave. I sighed, walking back to Stiles and Scott, both of them bringing me in for a hug.
