I own nothing especially the characters and places in this story.

While everyone was gathered around Elena. Bonnie slipped away in the same direction Dammon had gone. She was walking for five minutes before she felt she was being watched. She turned around noticing nothing particularly strange. When out of the bushes to her right came a beautiful black wolf. As she stared at it she could tell this was no ordinary wolf. She slowly approached it while it growled at her baring its teeth. The closer she got the more it growled but still she came closer to it her hand extended to touch his soft black fur. The wolf was growling continuously but hadn't come towards her or backed away almost as if it wanted her touch but at the same time it didn't. Her hand came into contact with the fur on top of its head and it seemed to almost melt into her touch. Encouraged she put her other hand on its soft fur and slowly knelt down slipping her arms around its neck. She hugged it and when she came close to its ear she whispered.

"Please. Don't go Dammon."

She felt the body she was hugging change until she found it was no longer soft black fur under her cheek but a soft black shirt. She could feel his muscles tensed waiting for her to withdraw her arms and move away but she wouldn't. This was the safest she'd felt in a long time and slowly so very slowly she felt him hug her back. She knew that though Elena had been nothing more than a way to get back at his brother it hurt him that he had lost and that they were together and happy when he had no one. She had always been drawn to him and when Elena hadn't wanted him she had been so very happy.

She didn't want him to go life was so much better with him around. He seemed to be the only one that always listened to her and took her seriously. Sure he found her amusing but at least he noticed her. Meredith and Elena had always been closer to each other than her and often she'd notice there let's humour bonnie looks. Matt had never noticed until Elena had died and then it was just because he saw her as a little girl that he needed to protect. She didn't have any other friends. This was her world laughed at by her only friends. Considered always second best to her 'best friend'. Never taken seriously always alone.

"You know why I have to go"

"Will you ever come back?"

"Not if I can help it. Maybe I'll see you out there."

"Maybe."

"Never forget cara you're always first to me."

He slowly drew away and as he did she kissed him on the cheek.

"I'll miss you."

"I'll miss you to cara"

He turned shifting into a crow as he went and he was gone. She slowly wandered back to the clearing. When she arrived she realised they had gone leaving her there alone like always. She turned to start the long walk home.
