Hey everyone! Two reviews made me want to write more. Imagine what 10 or 20 could do! J I rewrote chapter 6, it's still entitled: Nightmare answers Prayer, but it is VERY different. Well…. Sorta. Anyways please read it if you haven't already. It'll make this chapter make more sense, trust me! J As always, Enjoy!
Previously:
"I love you so much, Elena. Never forget it. Because I will never love anybody else, this statement will always be true." Damon broke the silence. I wished I could say the same. Strangely it seemed like I could, especially after my dream. I couldn't let my life with Stefan come true. And I knew only one way to stop it from happening. I knew in my heart what I was about to do, was what was right. It was what needed to be done to start my life. It was the right choice.
Damon's P.O.V.
I knew that she still hadn't decided, so she couldn't say the same. She probably still loved Stefan. But I was still yearning to hear it. So I waited for a while, wishing that she would tell me that loved me, and only me. But like I predicted she never did.
"I-I had this dream and…." She stopped mid-sentence, deciding that whatever she was going to say, was best left un-said.
Elena, the most positive, beautiful, angelic girl I've ever seen, looked wrecked. She usually had a bright, positive energy that surrounded her. Right now, the energy felt drained and weak, struggling to maintain itself. As Elena was. She was trying with all her might to keep herself together, but stress was too much.
Everything about her right now, made her look like a whole different person. Her face, usually lighted up with excitement, and happiness, looked red and puffy like she's been crying for hours. Her long golden hair was tangled, and matted. The shine and luscious colour was completely drained. Her perfect lapis lazuli blue eyes, usually dancing with joy, now made me want to pull her into my arms, and sooth her, and tell her that everything would be alright.
Elena, the rainbow after my storm of a life, wasn't shining. And I wanted to fix it. But I had no idea how.
"Elena?" I said softly. "Are you alright? Did you have a nightmare?"
"Yeah, but I'm fine. I'm just tired is all." She tried to assure me, but her façade wouldn't fool me.
"You don't look fine. Come here." I said, pulling her into my arms.
"I said I was fine. Jeez." She looked up at me, and soon her act faded. She bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes. I started to rock her back and forth.
"Shhhhhh…." I calmed her, continuing to rock her. After a while, tears started to stream down her cheeks. She buried her face into my chest, letting it all out.
After a while, the tears stopped falling, and Elena drifted slowly asleep in my arms.
