The tips of her hair are too dark, the curve of her upper lip was not as sensual, her neck was not even the same shape. Damon shook his head. Why did he keep comparing every girl he saw to Elena? He was the one who left her. He had no right feeling anguish, pain, and self-pity. It had been exactly 6 months, 1 week, and 2 days since he had left Elena. And that was how long his heart had been torn to shreds.
His cell phone began to ring bringing him out of his misery. He smiled at who it was. It was his best friend Anastasia. He had met her after he had gotten into Covington. He had gone to Louisiana just because it was the first place he stopped when he did not want to drive anymore. He had stayed there since. He had been out walking and saw her crying under a tree in a park and he had met her and discovered that her husband had left her and her 5 year old daughter alone and she did not know how to tell her daughter the truth.
Damon had told her his own story minus all the supernatural stuff and they had become instant friends. She was like a sister to him and he absolutely adored her little daughter Kiara. He answered with a quick 'hello'. He heard someone blubbering on the other end and could instantly tell that it was Kiara. He asked "Kiara, honey what is it?" He started to panic that something was terribly wrong.
She said in between sobs "Uncle Damon, mommy and I w….were walking along and m…mommy got hit by a c…car and I called the p…police but they are scared to leave me a…alone until they get here and I said I w…would call you." Damon replied "Don't worry I'm on my way."
He rushed there at vampire speed and arrived a few seconds later. He saw Anastasia lying in the middle of the road and he felt tears slide down his cheeks at how lifeless she looked. He didn't want to lose his best friend. He scanned the scene for Kiara and found her standing at the edge of the crosswalk weeping. Damon ran over to her and kneeled down in front of her.
He whispered "Come here sweetheart." He took her into his arms as EMTs arrived and got to work on her. A few minutes later Damon and Kiara were sitting it the waiting room tears sliding down the cheeks waiting impatiently for an update on Anastasia's condition. A doctor came out and walked over to them. He told Damon "Her injuries were severe we have her stabilized right now but it is not going to last until morning."
