I remember the day perfectly, like it was yesterday. Sometimes, when I'm feeling sad, I dream about it. I remember how hurt and angry and sad I was. When Damon cheated on me, he broke me. Because of him, I no longer trust boys. Especially pretty and arrogant ones. They are all the same. You think they love you, but you are always never enough.
I wake up to the sun shining in my face. I groan and turn.
" Five more minutes." I mumble. More like five minutes because a few seconds after, my alarm goes off. I open my eyes and turn off my alarm. I get up and go to the bathroom. After my morning routine, I go get dressed. I choose a lavender blouse and black pants and heels. I brush my hair. I eat, get my purse and I'm out the door.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ One hour later~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I come back from my meeting with my publisher at about 11:00. I'm hungry so I text Caroline and Bonnie and I ask them if they wanna to eat at the Mystic Grill
Caroline: Sure. Be there in a few :)
Bonnie: Okay. I'll be there in 10
I arrive there and I wait in my car until I see Caroline. I get out and walk towards her.
" Hey, Care." I say as I walk next to her.
" Hey, 'Lena." Caroline says as we walk in and choose our booth. We choose one in the back.
" Is Bonnie coming?" Caroline asks.
" Yeah, she'll be here in a few minutes." I respond.
" How'd your meeting go?" Caroline asks.
" Good. It was boring, though. We discussed deadlines, the cover design, release dates... that kind of stuff," I say." Now, on the real news. How'd your date with Stefan go?"
Caroline blushes. " To be honest, it was amazing. Stefan took me to a romantic restaurant in Charlottesville and then we got frozen yogurt."
At least one Salvatore knows how to treat a girl.
I smile, pushing away all my other feelings. " That's really nice. I'm happy for you."
" Thanks! Oh, look, here comes Bonnie."
Bonnie comes through the door, looking hungry and tired.
" Hey, Bonnie.'' Caroline and I say to her.
" Hey, guys. Have you ordered yet? I'm starving.
So it turns out that, according to Bonnie, wedding planning is so much more exhausting than it seems like on TV. Bonnie and Jeremy's wedding is still a few months away, but she wants her big day to be perfect. If this is how Bonnie is acting, then I just cant wait for Caroline's wedding to come along.
When we all finish our food, we all go to our place. I unlock my door and we all come in.
" So, guys," Caroline begins as we all lay on the couches." There's this party tonight at Stefan's friend, Enzo's house. Do you guys wanna come?"
Bonnie nods. " Sure. I could use some time off."
Caroline look towards me with pleading eyes. " What about you, Elena? Please come. I know you don't like parties as much as you used to, but please? For moi?"
I laugh. " Care, I was gonna come anyway."
So I begged for nothing?" Caroline asks.
" Pretty much." I say with a smile.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~An hour before the party~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Caroline, Bonnie and I are all doing our finishing touches. Caroline is doing her makeup, Bonnies fixing her hair and I am applying my mascara. I finish applying my mascara and I step back to see myself. Makeups all good. Hair is look good. My dress looks fabulous. Its one that I bought while in L.A. last year. Its a red lace high-low dress. My shoes are black heels. Bonnie finishes her hair. She is also looking good. Shes wearing a purple body-hugging sundress. At last, Caroline is done as well. She is wearing a black cocktail dress. When we finish, we all pile into my car. We drive to the house, a place that's not to far from here. We arrive at a two story house with blaring music and people everywhere holding red Solo cups. We go in and land at the dance floor. We all dance but then we spot Stefan, so Caroline goes to him. I go to get Bonnie and I a drink when I see him.
I see Damon Salvatore. I quickly get my drinks and just hope that he didn't see me. I think he did, but I am already walking back to Bonnie.
" Bonnie. Damon is here. Damon is at this damn party!" I say.
" Oh god. Do you want to go?" Bonnie asks.
" No. Just... Tell me if he comes anywhere near me, okay?"
" Sure thing, Elena.
Damon P.O.V.
Im at the bar when I see her. Elena Gilbert. The woman I loved, the woman who I cheated on and broke her heart.
My heart races. I start to go towards her, but its too late. Shes gone. I know she knows I'm here.
From a distance I stare at her. She's so beautiful, So smart, So kind, So... broken. I'm part of the reason that shes broken. Miranda and Grayson died. I cheated. Its a wonder that Elena is still up and running after everything she's been through.
By the time that its 11:00, Elena, Bonnie and Blondie all leave. I wonder if i will see Elena again. I wonder if I can apologize more than I already have.
A/N Hey, guys! So, for you guys that were reading College Adventures, Im sorry that I took it down. I had writers block and my brother was being soooo annoying and he was making fun of me because I write fanfiction.
However, I like this story. I feel like that this story could go somewhere. Well, anyway, bye! Please R&R! 3
