The Hunters: Moonsong Chapter Twenty-Five

Dear Diary, I can't accept what a moron I am, what a shifty, useless simpleton. I ought to never have kissed Damon, or let him kiss me. The expression all over when he discovered us was awful. His highlights were so firm and pale, as though he was made of ice, and his eyes were sparkling with tears. And afterward it appeared as though a light went out inside him, and he saw me like he despised me. Like I was Katherine. Regardless of what occurred between us, Stefan never saw me like that. I will have a hard time believing it. Stefan would never despise me. Each beat of my heart discloses to me that we have a place together, that nothing can destroy us. I've been such an idiot, and I've harmed Stefan, in spite of the fact that that was the one thing I never needed to do. However, this isn't the end for us. When I am sorry and clarify what a snapshot of franticness he saw, he'll excuse me. When I can contact him once more, he'll perceive how sorry I am. It was just the adrenaline from coming so near death, from that vehicle pursuing us. Neither Damon nor I truly needed the other one, that kiss was simply us sticking hard to life. No. I can't lie. Not here. I must be straightforward with myself, regardless of whether I imagine with every other person. I needed to kiss Damon. I needed to contact Damon. I generally have. However, I don't need to. I can stop myself, and I will. I would prefer not to cause Stefan any more agony. Stefan will get that, will comprehend that I'll do anything I can to fulfill him once more, and afterward he'll pardon me. This can't be the end. I won't let it be. Elena shut her diary and dialed Stefan's number again, letting the telephone ring until it went to voice message and afterward hanging up. She'd cal ed him a few times the previous evening, at that point again and again toward the beginning of today. Stefan could see her cal ing, she knew. He generally kept his telephone on. He generally replied, as well; he appeared to feel some commitment to be accessible since he had the telephone with him. The way that he wasn't noting implied he was maintaining a strategic distance from her intentionally. Elena shook her head wildly and dialed once more. Stefan would hear her out. She wasn't going to let him dismiss her. When she clarified and he pardoned her, beginning and end could return to typical. They could end this partition was making them both so troubled †obviously, it hadn't worked out the manner in which she planned. But, what precisely would she say she was going to state? Elena moaned and slumped down in reverse onto her bed, her heart sinking. Adrenaline from the vehicle's interest aside, al she could genuine y state was that she hadn't intended for the kiss with Damon to occur, that she didn't need him, not genuine y. She needed Stefan. Al she could tel him was that it wasn't something she had expected or arranged. That Damon wasn't the one she needed. Not genuinely. That she would consistently pick Stefan. That would need to be sufficient. Elena dialed once more. This time, Stefan got. â€Å"Elena,† he said straight. â€Å"Stefan, it would be ideal if you tune in to me,† Elena said in a surge. â€Å"I'm so grieved. I never †† â€Å"I would prefer not to discuss this,† Stefan stated, cutting her off. â€Å"Please stop cal ing me.† â€Å"But, if it's not too much trouble Stefan †â€Å" â€Å"I love you, but†¦Ã¢â‚¬  Stefan's voice was delicate yet cold. â€Å"I don't figure we can be together. Not on the off chance that I can't trust you.† The line went dead. Elena pul ed the telephone away from her ear and gazed at it for a second, baffled, before she understood what had occurred. Stefan, dear, sweetheart Stefan who had consistently been there for her, who cherished her regardless of what she did, had hung up on her. Meredith pul ed one foot up despite her good faith, held it in two hands, inhaled profound, and gradually pul ed the foot higher, extending her quadriceps muscle. It felt great to extend, to get a little blood streaming after her late night. She was anticipating competing with Samantha. There was another move Meredith had made sense of, a touch of something kickboxing motivated, that she thought Sam was going to cherish, when she got over the stun of being wrecked by Meredith by and by. Samantha had been getting quicker and all the more certain about herself as they continued turning out to be together, and Meredith unquestionably needed to cause her to remain alert. That was, it is spectacular to fight with Samantha, if Samantha ever genuine y showed up. Meredith looked at her watch. Sam was very nearly twenty minutes late. Obviously, they'd been out late the prior night. Be that as it may, stil , it wasn't care for Samantha not to show up when she said she was going to. Meredith turned on her telephone to check whether she had a message, at that point cal ed Samantha. No answer. Meredith left a snappy phone message, at that point hung up and returned to extending, attempting to disregard the black out bunch of anxiety going through her. She orbited her shoulders, extended her arms despite her good faith. Perhaps Samantha just overlooked and had her telephone killed. Possibly she slept in. Samantha was a tracker; she wasn't in peril from whoever †or whatever †was following the grounds. Murmuring, Meredith abandoned her exercise schedule. She would not have been ready to concentrate until she kept an eye on Samantha, despite the fact that the other young lady was most likely fine. Without a doubt fine. Gathering up her knapsack, she set out toward the entryway. She could get in a sudden spike in demand for the route over. The sun was sparkling, the air was fresh, and Meredith's feet beat the ways in a normal cadence as she wove between individuals meandering around grounds. When she arrived at Samantha's quarters, she was feeling that perhaps Sam would need to go for a decent since a long time ago run with her as opposed to fighting today. She tapped on Samantha's entryway, cal ing, â€Å"Rise and sparkle, sleepyhead!† The entryway, not hooked, floated open a bit. â€Å"Samantha?† Meredith stated, pushing it open farther. The smel hit her first. Like rust and salt, with a basic scent of rot, it was so solid Meredith amazed in reverse, applauding a hand over her nose and mouth. Notwithstanding the smel , Meredith couldn't from the outset comprehend what was al over the wal s. Paint? she pondered, her cerebrum feeling lazy and moderate. For what reason would Samantha be painting? It was so red. She strolled through the entryway gradually, despite the fact that something in her was beginning to shout. No, no, escape. Blood. Bloodbloodbloodblood. Meredith wasn't feeling moderate and drowsy any longer: her heart was beating, her head was turning, her breath was coming rigid. There was demise in this room. She needed to see. She needed to see Samantha. In spite of each nerve in her body asking her to run, to battle, Meredith continued pushing ahead. Samantha lay on her back, the bed underneath her drenched red with blood. She seemed as though she had been torn separated. Her open eyes gazed vacantly at the roof, unblinking. She was dead.
