Damon had slept well and was in a happy mood, he had forgotten about the fight he and Bella had so he got dressed for the day. As he walked down the stairs with a smile on his face and that was always rare because the only one who could get Damon to smile was Bella, when he reached the bottom he called out
"hay Bella, bell"
but he received no answer it was then that he looked around the silent house and saw the state it was in. The living room was a mess but a photo on the floor stood out the most, he walked over to it and picked it up and gasped because it was him and Bella on her 16th birthday and she was on his back smiling while he held onto her grinning. It was then he remembered the fight, his cruel words her slapping him and him yelling at her to get out of his life while she wad crying. He gasped again and fell to his knees and clutched his chest because it felt like his heart was being ripped into a million pieces without Bella by his side. He stared at the photo that was at least 2 years old, he stared at Bella and to him she was the only one in the photo she looked so beautiful in the light blue dress that his father gave her, her hair curled and framing her face and her brown doe eyes shining. Damon faintly smiled because he could see the life and love in her eyes that she held for him. He placed the photo next to him and dropped his head into his hands in shame at what he said to Bella, he then done something he hadn't done since his mother died - he cried and he didn't care who saw, he then looked up at the calendar and cried even more because yesterday was Bella's eighteenth birthday. The day he promised he would always be there for her.
The day he made her cry.
The day he hurt his best friend the one thing he promised he would never do.
The day he left her and she left him.
The day two hearts broke.
He then remembered that yesterday was the day he was going to propose to her, he pulled out a small black box and opened it and saw a beautiful golden ring with swirl designs around the ring. Damon then let out an animalistic roar of anguish as he cried and that got his little brother Stefan running down the stairs and his dad out of his office. They both saw Damon on the floor crying clutching the gold ring they knew something must of happened because Damon never cried, they saw the photo next to Damon and a look of understanding crossed their faces so they went to hug their son/brother and give him silent support as he cried. No one knew they wouldn't see Bella again for a long time so they mourned for the loss of a
Daughter
A sister
And a love of his life.
