"Come on Elena. I want to see damon," I sighed waiting in the car.

"I'm coming. God your a nuisance," she mumbled.

She started to drive to the Salvatore boarding house listening to some taylor swift and singing along. She pulled up in the driveway and parked. We both walked in and saw a girl come downstairs in a towel.

"Friend of damons?" I lightly teased.

"Stefan actually," she said.

"I have to go," elena said running from the house.

"Wheres stefans little bitch ass?" I growled.

"Friend. Nothing more. I'm here for his birthday," she told me.

"Oh. I need to get him something. What does a grumpy vampire who's hundreds of years old like?" I asked the blonde.

"Bon jovi," she said,"with that sarcasm I'm guessing your friends with damon."

My heart stung a little at the word friends but I covered it up,"definitely. Though, i could outwit him anyday."

"Sure ya could," damon said appearing beside me,"and stefan is a cheerful and kind brother."

I rolled my eyes at him, but a smile grew on my face none the less. Stefan came down a few minutes later.

"I see you met Lexi. Wheres elena?" Stefan asked me.

"She saw lexi in a towel and freaked," I told him and sat on their couch.

stefan sighed and ran out the door. Once he was gone lexi turned to me.

"So, what do you do around here for fun?" She asked me.

"Hang out at mystic grill."

"And damon. Have you noticed the elena girl is a dead ringer to Katherine," at the name damon tensed.

"Damon. Who's Katherin?" I asked him and he tensed more.

"You havent told them!" She yelled.

"Katherine was mine and stefans ex," damon told me.

"What happened to her?" I pressed.

"She died. Well, shes in a tomb under the old church. I came back to find her," he told me.

"Damon is in love with her. Never got over her," lexi told me.

I took a shaky breath and held in tears. I was stupid to think he might be falling for me.

"I just remebered I have to help Jer with his homework," I whispered and rushed out of the house using my wolf speed.

I ran to my room and collapsed on my bed. Why would I ever think he could be falling for me like I'm falling for him.

A few hours later I headed up to mystic grill to get out of the house. I saw caroline and tyler there but I sat in a booth near the back. I was in silence until Lexi came in.

"What the hell are you?" She asked me.

"A creature."

"Well duh. Are you a vampire?" She hissed.

"No. I'm still a fucking legend," I growled.

"Is she bothering you. Shes the school nobody so shes desperate for attention. I guess that's why shes fucking the salvatore brother," tyler sneered coming up to us.

"One. I'm not fucking damon. Two, go back to whatever slut your using this time tyler,"

He gave me a cold look before walking away. Lexi shot me an impressed look and laughed.

"We are gonna be good friends," she said smiling widely.

"I hope so," I told her sharing a similar smile.

"So...you like damon," she stated.

"Is it that obvious?" I asked her.

"To anyone but damon. Hes witty and cute, but can be a big idiot," she told me.

I shook my head and laughed. A few minutes later caroline came over.

"I wanted to ask if you wanted to come over after stefans party tonight. We dont hang out at all anymore," she said.

"Yeah. I'd like that," I said with a huge smile.

She did a squeal before walking away. Lexi laughed at her. An hour later stefan showed up and we celebrated his birthday.

"Your old," I told him.

"Thank you Cameron. Feeling the love," he said sarcastically.

"Hey. You only turn one hundred and fifty two one. Celebrate. Dance with my sister," I told him and walked over to lexi.

We talked until damon rushed over. He grabbed me and shoved me over to stefan. I gave him a confused look that turned to horror when he stabbed lexi through the heart with a stake.

"Lexi!" I screamed in horror and ran over to her now gray body.

"She was a vampire cameron. It had to be done," the Sherriff told me.

I looked to see stefan with tears in his eyes as he looked at his dead best friend. Then I looked to damon who seemed unaffected.

"Outside. Now!" I growled at him.

We walked outside and once we were out of earshot I turned to him.

"Liking you was the worst mistake I ever made!" I screamed at him.

"What do you mean? I was doing me and stefan a favor!" He yelled.

I just stood there and laughed as tears filled my eyes. Only, they werent tears of hurt, they were tears of anger.

"When you killed Zach and coach tanner I could justify it saying it was your bloodlust. Not your fault. When you abused caroline you were trying not to kill more people. That's what I told myself at least. When you turned Vicki I used the excuse you were hungry. You killing lexi shows one thing!" I screamed as the tears fell faster.

"And what's that cameron?" He growled.

"That you're a monster. I wont be the girl who's dumb enough to fall in love with a monster," I turned to walk away.

"Cameron wait!" He yelled after me, his voice slightly breaking,"I'm not a monster!"

"Yes you are and I refuse to be your next victim. Goodbye damon."

I walked back into the bar and saw caroline.

"I cant tonight. I need to go home," I told her.

She nodded her head. I walked put of the bar and started to walk home. On my way a truck pulled up beside me.

"Get in," tyler said.

"I'm not in the mood tyler," I said.

"I know. Get in," he said in a softer tone.

I didnt have it in me to fight so I got in the car. He drove me to my house and dropped me off. I went in and up to my room. The first thing I did was grab my blade.

"Your such an idiot."
