Summary : What if Damon had fallen in love again before going back to Mystic Falls? Damon falls for Shye Rose but compels her to forget him completely in order to give her a chance at a normal human life.
Shye Rose is a 20 year old girl with a big problem. She has this nagging feeling that something in her life went missing but she doesn't know what that is. Shye ends up in Mystic Falls and meets Damon Salvatore and things suddenly go from sketchy to bloody.
I ran through the forest trying to ignore the pain the broken branches and rocks were doing to my bare feet. The physical damage that my feet were experiencing was nothing compared to what my heart was going through. It felt like it was breaking into a millions pieces. Like everything I am, was, becoming undone and there was nothing I could do to stop it.
" Shye!" He's growl vibrated the floor beneath me. I looked behind me but he was no where to be seen. He voiced had carried. He was no where near me.
I pushed myself to run faster. The cold night air was starting to hurt my lungs but I kept going. I thanked my lucky stars that the moon was high up in the sky. It was bright enough to let me see where I was going but dark enough to still scare me. Every tree, every bush, every little thing looked sinister and threatening but it didn't compare to what I was running away from.
I didn't even know why I was bothering to run. He could easily catch and kill me in less than a second if he really wanted. It was like shooting fish in a barrel, it would be that easy. But he was letting me run, again.
" I did it for you." He's words replayed in my head over and over again as I watched him wipe the blood off his chin. I hadn't fought the urge to vomit then but now it was different. I really didn't have time to stop and puke my guts out. I was running for my life.
" I never told anyone that." A different memory flashed before my eyes, hitting me like a ton of bricks. " I really must like you." I said and laughed happily as my head laid on his lap and he ran his fingers through my hair.
" You like me?" He grinned.
I remembered blushing and feeling absolutely embarrassed by my accidental confession. I sat up and looked into his eyes and said, " So, you like me too."
He had looked so serious and upset that I was ready to walk away when he suddenly captured my right wrist and brought it to his nose, inhaled and kissed it. Sending shudders through out my whole body.
" I really must like you too." He sighed and scowled.
" Kiss me." I whispered.
He grinned and inched closer to me.
" Why?"
" Because I want to know what your lips feel like against mine." I said shyly. " Because I've been dying to kiss you since I first saw you."
" I'm not good for you, Shye." He kept getting closer. Making me lay down on the grass. He was hovering over me. His hands were on either side of me. Trapping me in. "You should know that."
I looked up into his eyes and felt his body press against me. "I don't care."
" You should." He leaned down slowly and pressed his lips to mine. Making my world spin.
I was suddenly brought back to reality by a scream. I was too busy looking around that I didn't notice the uplifted root. I fell, hard. I landed on damp soil and rocks. I was close to the river. I tried to get up but I couldn't. My right ankle hurt so bad that it was actually making me dizzy…wait no it was my forehead. He had slammed my head into the door too. It was a combination of both, of everything he had done to me early today.
I rolled over onto my back and gasped. Pain was shooting through out my whole body especially my stomach and neck. He had bit me. I had no idea how I managed to get out of there but I had. I had been lucky but she hadn't been. She was dead. I watched him drain her. God, he killed her. What was I going to do?
I turned my head to the side and started to throw up. I had no food in my stomach and I had thrown up earlier too so all I was throwing up was bile. When I was done I tried crawling but I only made it 10 feet before I collapsed in exhaustion. I couldn't do it.
Maybe some hiker or some couple would be out walking and would see me…who was I kidding? That would be a fat chance. No one could help me. I was going to die here.
I stared up at the stars as memory after memory came stumbling back to me, each weighing me deeper and deeper into the ground. God, how can all of this be possible?
A dark cloud started to crawl to the moon. I closed my eyes and felt someone stand over me. Damon.
He was finishing me off.
I took a deep breath and let the pain take me.
