Prologue
"Stop following me!" Bonnie yelled, as her chest heaved inwards and outwards you could see that she was emotionally done. In that same moment, the moon hit her sparkling sapphire ball gown in such an alluring way that, the man whom she was fighting with lost all train of thought.
"Just get in the car Bonnie", Damon pleaded with a voice as sweet as an angel's. For one moment she considered it. For one moment she actually thought about getting off the damp dark road and jumping into her boyfriend's warm Bentley until she heard..."you can't walk home in that dress anyways. You'll freeze!" and this is when she snapped.
"I can do whatever I like! You don't own me!"
With those words she hiked up the excess material from behind her and continued to walk straight ahead.
He trailed after her in his car once more. "I wasn't saying that I owned you. I'm…. just trying to look out for you. Or what about your heels? Your place is pretty far from here…" the look of worry on his face was masked by passing shadows of the night.
She stopped walking once more. "Damon stop doing this! It's... it's not fair. We have to end this now while we still have time." She looked down remorsefully trying to regain composure with each succeeding breath.
"Why do you want to leave me?" he asked in a hushed voice so quiet that if she hadn't been staring at his lips she wouldn't have heard it. She struggled to find words to describe why they should end a five year relationship so abruptly, but only one accusation kept screaming in her head.
"You don't love me! I feel as if I care about you too much. I would give anything up to be with you but… I don't feel as if you would do the same. Maybe you never really loved me" the final part was a whisper to the wind. Her eyes swelled up with hot tears. She didn't want to be that girl, but she also didn't want to be the fool who was too stupid to let go when she had the chance.
Bonnie then mustered up the courage to drag her gaze from the ground up to his almost rolled down window to see his reaction, his face was blank but his jaw ticked. "I think you're right. Let's end it", and then without any warning he sped off into the darkness with reckless abandon.
Bonnie tried to blink back the now molten tears into her head, but as we all know, there is no stopping an active volcano. This is what she wanted wasn't it? She couldn't think anymore. Her heart was so sore that it infected all other areas of her body, leaving her paralysed with anguish.
Nonetheless she lifelessly continued her journey whilst still remaining on the road. Sadly she didn't see the lights of the oncoming car fast enough and the last thing she heard was a bang.
