The woods spread wide around me, the trees huge and tall. I stopped running and crouched, taking huge breaths, my heart beating loudly in my chest.
I lay on the ground and stared at the morning sky. The sounds of birds were soothing and I closed my eyes. Damon's gaze flitted through my mind and I snapped my eyes open.
I hit the ground multiple times and yelled in frustration. Was I so terrible wanting to keep him alive? Was I a bitch for prioritizing him
over other people?
"Why can't you understand me?!" I screamed.
My voice echoed through the woods, scaring the birds. They flapped their wings and flew away. Even the birds didn't want to be near me.
Maybe I was a bitch after all.
I leaned on a tree and crouched, my face in my palm. The tears oozed out, wetting my hands. I didn't even realize I was crying.
"Why am I fucking crying?" I sobbed.
