Bella's POV

I couldn't sleep well that night. I kept thinking about it, even in my dreams it haunted me.

I was Damon's rebound. I was just a game, something to pass time.

He came to see me in morning, but I didn't invite him in; which he disliked greatly. I simply told him that I didn't have the energy to fight with him and whatever he wanted to discuss could be on hold for later.

And when later came, I still couldn't get it off my mind


"Well Bella, it seems that you still don't trust me. Since you won't let me in your house, you just had to come to mine" Damon said in annoyance as he dragged me into his house.

I was still thinking so I wasn't really paying attention.

I just couldn't talk to him, otherwise I would just scream to him saying,

Why! Why me!? What did I ever do to you?! What if I did fall for you?! You would just abandon me the moment a spot for Elena is opened!

Even though I don't love him, It hurt. It was like Edward and Jake all over again. The wound he and Jake left never fully healed, it still hurt.

Glad you finally realized that! Nemesis said sarcastically.

Just shut up!

I was just this thing for people to use, to play with and break, like a chew toy. Why can't I just live a semi normal life? Just me, Charlie and Nemesis. Just the three of us trying to keep everything together. Because you dumb ass, you seem to attract the supernatural! And I guess I do too. Nemesis sighed. "Bella? Are you still here?" Damon asked as he clicked his fingers in front of my face, catching my attention. "Do you love Elena?" I asked bluntly.
