The story you know is a lie, the Elena you heard of never existed. I was a strong girl who barely got through losing her parents before she met a boy who was a vampire and lost so much more. After we found the cure I jumped at the chance to be human again. I lost my brother became a monster I just wanted to be me again. Yet along this journey I found more than just a cure. The boy I fell in love with and the brother he came with were not the men I wanted anymore. This wasn't the life I wanted. I never felt safe. And even though I felt loved, I felt caged, and even though I promised Damon I wouldn't I didn't feel the same about him as I did as a vampire. The connection was just an illusion something over- enhanced by cruel magic. With all these discoveries and all this loss it became clear to me that this town. This state. All of this. Was no longer for me. I needed to leave and the sooner the better.
I packed my stuff naught but 3 days after taking the cure late when I knew no one would come after me. I rushed down to my car and just drove. I didn't know where I was going but I knew that here wasn't the place for me anymore. The road ahead of me was long and though unwinding it felt like I was trapped on a never ending circle of road. I drove past countless signs from the time the moon followed me in the trees to the time the sun beat down on my windshield. It wasn't until the welcome to New Orleans sign passed I'd realized what I'd done. Who I'd run to. Of course at a time when I felt most unsafe I'd turned to the only people I knew capable of protecting me.
