"Someone like you and all you know
and how you speak"
It's funny how days can be filled with bustle and laughter and friends. Even the metaphorical setting sun – where blood red tears stain a starry, clear sky, as the silent darkening hour approaches – leaves room for avoidance and denial. But when heels and jeans are traded for cold toes and cotton pjs, the movement stops. Your head hits the pillow and the warm duvet covers you. Yes, you are covered, but your mind is open.

Tomorrow, they were going to retrieve that necklace from the cave and they would finally figure out how the hell to get Klaus into a coffin. Tomorrow would be the beginning of the end.
Which is great, 'cause despite everything vampires need sleep. Not that Klaus is keeping me awake or anything. The stupid all-knowing wannabe king of psychos.
