After about three days of full searching, Damon still had not found any trace of Amelia anywhere but, instead, he had hard times hiding the four dead bodies all drained from blood found in the forest. He knew undoubtedly that Amelia was really upset because she never killed anyone out of pleasure.

Drinking his favourite bourbon at the Grill, Damon was contemplating how stupid and mistaken he was all these years looking for a woman who didn't give a single damn. If only he could see Amelia once more to explain himself and win her back...

He was quietly sitting at the bar when he heard a laugh... This laugh he would recognise in a million...Her laugh... Turning around immediately, Damon could not help but grin when he saw her at a table... But his smile faded away as instantly as it came: She was not alone and she seemed perfectly happy, he thought. Who was this guy she was with and was making her smile like that?

Damon approached himself, not liking at all what he was feeling. He was jealous.

Damon: Well, Hello Amelia. Nice to see you AGAIN.

Amelia (without even turning): Damon. Hello...Goodbye.

Damon(smirking) : There's no need to be rude. I did not want to disturb your "date".

She was angry, Damon thought. At least she was not ignoring him.

Amelia: What do you want Damon? I made it clear we were done last time we talked.

Stranger guy : Amy, is everything okay? Who is this guy?

"Amy"...Damon felt his anger and jealousy rising. He called her Amy, HIS nickname for her!

Amelia: Oh Damon! How rude of me. I forgot to introduce to you my new friend...At least only friend for now...

It was Amelia's turn to smirk now while Damon's brow were frowning...If looks could kill, Damon thought, that guy would already been dead.

Amelia: Damon, meet my friend Mason...Mason Lockwood. Mason, this is Damon my...No one.

Amelia excused herself quickly and left both men awkwardly at the bar. She had to get away from there.

In the Forest

Amelia had been sitting in that dark forest for about an hour when she felt his presence.

Amelia: Damon, stop lurking. Just show yourself already.

Damon (coming in view, watching Amelia intently): You miss me.

Amelia: Your job, not mine. Sorry.

Damon: What was that little act you put on with that Mason Lockwood? Didn't know you liked jerks. (Damon smirking)

Amelia: Well, then you seem to be losing your memory. I dated you...I even married you...I must really be into jerks. But don't worry D. This time I won't make the same mistake I did with you...I won't fall in love...

Damon felt like someone had just stabbed him. But worse is that he knew it was his entire fault. His blindness when it came to Katherine just made him oblivious of what had always been there.

Damon: Amy, I am sorry for everything. I , I just want you back. I love you.

Amelia rose her gaze and nearly lost herself in his blue eyes... But she stood up and, her face turning cold, concealing her tears...

Amelia: Then that sucks because you lost me...

And with her vampire speed, she disappeared leaving Damon...
