Should I Love or Stake? (On Hold)

Chapter 15- Time Flies When You're Drunk With Your Best Friend

I didn't get far.

I was running blind through the forest, sobs scratching my throat and tears streaming from my eyes. My senses were shut down, my stomach knotted, and hands shaking. But I ran.

I knew it was pointless to run. Eventually Zach would find me or May would use her witchy voo doo and I would be back to being their obedient little slave.

All right in the not-so-right world.

More sobs escaped me.

So, considering my condition, it wasn't hard for me to trip over my own feet.

I ended up on my side, a cut on my head dripping blood, and my body shaking with more tears and sobs. I curled up in a ball, trying to find closure as I cried.

I didn't.

How could I? Everyone in Mystic Falls hates me now. I have no free will. Zach and May would find me soon and I would return to the not-so-normal life of killing what I now realized were innocent creatures.

Yeah, some of them are evil, but all? No.

I mean, look at Stefan. He's a bunny-eater dating a human and he has feelings. You call that evil?

Hell, Damon's an ass, but I still see some redeeming qualities in him.

Damon. 

The name made my lips tremble.

He hated me now. I was sure of it.

No matter how much he hated to admit it, I knew he thought of me as a friend. One of his only friends.

And now I've betrayed him and broke a promise. What kind of friend does that?

What kind of friend lets you get shot and almost killed? Another voice in my head asked.

I shivered as a flash of the look on Mason's face as I laid on the ground with bullets in my chest.

He had regretted what he had done then. I was sure of it.

He had done it for Katherine. He probably loved Katherine. Why did everyone love Katherine?

I looked at the sky and saw it was pitch black, the moon and stars shining brightly.

The stars winked at me and I felt like singing.

So I did. 

"Twinkle, twinkle little star," I began in a haunting whisper voice. "How I wonder what you are. Up above the world so high. Like a diamond in the sky..........."

I watched her through the tree's.

Lil was curled in a tight ball on her side, her midnight-black hair fanned out around her light a black cloud. Her hazel eyes seemed to almost glow with an unnatural light. Her face was tear-streaked, a cut on her head was bleeding, and she was eerily still.

She was singing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. Her eyes wide and lips barley parting as her voice flowed hauntingly beautiful.

She stared unblinking at the sky and I felt my boiling anger leave and a blanket of calm fall over me.

When I had left the house I had been mad enough to destroy the world, but another emotion was fighting with the anger, and I grudgingly tried to push it down, but I couldn't.
