A/N: This chapter is basically a filler chapter. It is some of the letters written out to everyone from Charlotte. Everyone is getting a letter from Charlotte, but I didn't write out all of them. I only wrote out ones for the people who played a bigger role in Charlotte's life than the others. So, I picked Alaric (her BFF forever!), Elena (her best friend that played a major role in her life before the cancer), Caroline (the person she is the closest to), and Damon (the vampire that just broke her heart). The next chapter will pick up where the last one left off.


Chapter 21

No One's POV really…

Dear Ric,

I don't really know what to write. I've always sucked at writing letters and you're the first person I'm writing to, so you have to bear with me, okay? Good.

So, Elijah and Bonnie have found something that they believe will save me. It's another supernatural creature called an Immortal. Elijah told me that I will basically have the strengths of a vampire and the weaknesses of a werewolf. And the best part is that I don't have a vampire's diet! Thank god. After having leukemia, I hate blood. I don't what I would do if I had to eat it. But there is one drawback about this…it's never been done before and Elijah said there is a possibility that it might not work.

Part of me hopes that does work because I would really like to live to see you marry Morgan and have mini-vamp hunters (or mini lawyers, whatever floats your boat, Ric and don't try and deny it, you and I both know you aren't getting any younger. :P) But, the other part of me hopes that it doesn't work. I don't want to have to see you and Morgan and Bonnie and Jeremy and Matt die! I can't imagine my life without you guys and if I become an Immortal, soon enough I will have to have a life without you guys. And to be honest…that terrifies me…a lot!

But, on a less depressing note, I told Damon that I loved him. Well…I thought it after we made out and thought I said it in my head. Guess not because then Damon tells me that he thinks he is still in love with Elena and I go back to the hotel room and cry my eyes out until Elijah get there. Okay, so I admit this is still depressing (to me), but not as depressing as death, right? I know you'll agree and understand my twisted sense of logic and humor because you're my best friend, Ric. And I know what your thinking, 'once she wakes up, I'm going to give her a piece of my mind about this letter…,and then I'm going to hug her!' Right?

I love you Ric. (You're not going to tell me that you love Elena too, are you? :P)

Love,

Your BFF Forever, Charlotte

P.S.: I hope I didn't make you cry too much…


Dear Caroline,

First of all, I wanted to say that I love you soo much, Caroline. You've been my best friend since we were little and getting in trouble at the Founders Council Meetings, remember? (Good times.) Or the time we broke Carol Lockwood's vase and blamed it on Tyler! And we still haven't told him that we were the ones who broke it!

But, back to business. So, Elijah and Bonnie have found something that they believe will save me. It's another supernatural creature called an Immortal. Elijah told me that I will basically have the strengths of a vampire and the weaknesses of a werewolf. And the best part is that I don't have a vampire's diet! Thank god. (No offense, Care. Lol.) After having leukemia, I hate blood. I don't what I would do if I had to eat it. But, there is one drawback about this…it's never been done before and Elijah said there is a possibility that it might not work. So, that's why I asked Tyler to take extra special care of you. And don't say that you can take care of yourself because something like a piece of wood in your heart kills you.

So, here's something that you might not know about. I told Damon that I loved him. And let me guess what you say next...when the hell did this happen? I don't know exactly when I started liking him, but after your party he made me tell him about the Kiss the Girl promise and then he might have played the song and kissed me. (Did I forget to tell you that too...oops! :P) Anyway, we made out in front of our room at the hotel in Bluebell and then I accidentally told him I loved him. I totally thought I said it in my head, but I guess I didn't because then he tells me that he thinks he still loves Elena! Wow, right? Yeah, things aren't exactly going my way these days.

I am going to miss you so much, Care. I know I'm talking as if I'm dying, but you have to promise me that you won't grieve too much over me. I need you to live your life and enjoy being eternal. And if I make it, then we can enjoy being eternal forever. :D

I love you, Care!

Love,

Your partner in crime, Charlie!


Dear Elena,

So, you're a vampire now…sorry about that, Lena. I didn't mean for this to happen to you. If I would have known that this was going to happen to you, I would have never let Damon take me away.

Turns out this whole trip was a giant bust, anyway! The vamp clan might have been destroyed, but I can give you three things that happened! One, you're a vamp now! (Duh) Two, Morgan was bitten by a vampire. Oh, and three, Damon broke my heart.

I'll explain that last one because you're probably thinking, 'what the hell happened?'. Yeah, well let's see…I think I started falling for him once I got here. I mean besides the banter between us, he's done a lot for me. He helped me home when I was about to pass out on Tyler's front lawn on the day of my 'Welcome Back' party. He helped me cook for our girl's night and he bought the food. He actually got to know me on the way to the carnival and surprisingly enough, he spent the day with me. He gave me my first kiss after Care's party. He even took care of me when I had a fever! He's done a lot for me, how could not fall for him? (Plus, have you seen his body? I mean, I know it's wrong to judge based on looks, but come on!) Anyways, after he kissed me for the first time, I realized that I fell for him. And it hit hard! But, the universe has deemed me unfit to have someone love me the way I love him, so naturally he broke my heart. And I knew it was coming…I knew all along that it wouldn't work out, but there's always that part of you that hopes the rest of you is wrong. And boy do I want to kick his ass for making me feel hopeful. You want to know what he did? He made out with me! I mean if you don't like me like that, why the hell wouldn't you just push me away? God, do I want to kick his ass. But, as for the reason that he doesn't even remotely think of me like that…well you're going to have to ask Damon yourself. I'm sorry, Lena, but if what he said is true, then it's Damon who should be the one to tell you, not me.

Okay, so now that my 'I hate Damon' rant is over, I am going to tell you about the new supernatural creature that I will hopefully become. An immortal! Never heard of it? Yeah, me either. Elijah told me that I will basically have the strengths of a vampire and the weaknesses of a werewolf. But, there's a drawback. (Isn't there always?) Elijah said that there's been attempts, but it's never fully been done before. So, there's a slight possibility that it won't work and I will die. I know that I might not make it out alive…and if I don't, I want you to live your new life to the fullest! I need you to promise me that! I need to know that you will move on when I die. I know I sound morbid, trust me I sound just as morbid with Ric and Care, but there is a fifty percent chance that I don't wake up. And if I don't, I need you to promise me something else. I need you to promise to look over Damon. I know that he is an ass and that he broke my heart, but that doesn't mean that I want to see him fail.

I love you so much, Elena! And I know that you will have a great life with Stefan, Miss-Soon-to-be-Salvatore! (You know its going to happen!)

Love,

Char, your hopefully soon-to-be immortal BFF

P.S.: Now, that you're a vamp, can you slap Damon upside the head for me? I've been wanting to do that since I met him.


Dear Damon,

Your letter is the last one that I've written tonight. So, Bonnie and Elijah have something that they hope will save me. Bonnie is going to try and change me into something that they found in Emily Bennett's grimoires. Something called an Immortal. Elijah says that I will basically have the strengths of a vampire and the weaknesses of werewolf. But, Elijah told me that there is a possibility that it might not work. Part of me hopes that it doesn't though. I don't know why…I guess I'm just tired of getting my hopes up each time. I mean, what if I'm not meant to survive? What if I'm meant to die this time? I don't know why I only told you this, Damon, instead of Caroline or Elena or anyone else…but, I did.

Have you ever wondered which hurts the most: saying something and wishing you hadn't, or saying nothing, wishing you had? Personally, I think…I think I would have never told you that I love you if I had the chance to take it back. It wasn't fair to you to find out the way you did. Trust me, I never intended to just blurt it out like that. I didn't even think I said it out loud! I meant to say it in my head and that's it. I knew from the start that I didn't need to be falling for anyone because of the situation I was in. But, you know what sucks about falling for a guy you're not right for? You fall anyway because you think he might be different. I don't think that I absolutely 100% knew that you were different, but I felt like you were different. Obviously, I was right. You are different and I hope you and Elena work out what ever it is that you need to work out. I also knew that I wasn't the right person for you. That much was obvious.

I want to thank you too, Damon. You helped me and you befriended me, even though you knew that you didn't have to.. I sincerely hope that everything works out with Elena. And if it doesn't work out with Elena, I hope you find someone that will make you smile all the time. Someone that will always be there for you. Someone that even though you fight with them, you always want to go to bed and wake up next to them. You deserve to be happy, Damon, after everything you've been through. I hope we can be friends after all of this.

I will always love you, Damon.

Charlotte

P.S.: Take care of Ric for me. Despite his words and your actions, I know you two are still best friends.
