-c- was one thing I was absolutely certain of it was this decision. Leaving this place with @DeviantBeastly would be a new start for -c-

-c- both @DeviantBeastly and myself. No I wasn't going to second guess myself. This was absolutely the right decision. I kept telling -c-

-c- myself these same things mentally over and over again as I made my way downstairs with my last bag. I wasn't -c- @DeviantBeastly

-c- taking much of this old life with me because I decided, I didn't really need much. @DeviantBeastly and I were going to start fresh -c-

-c- somewhere far away from Mystic Falls. I quickly gave my mom another hug, telling her I promised to call often, when -c- @DeviantBeastly

-c- I heard a knock at the door. I knew it was @DeviantBeastly before I quickly made my way over to the door. A grin crossed my lips as -c-

-c- I opened the door|} I was half afraid you weren't going to show up @DeviantBeastly

{| I laughed softly at my own silliness. It still didn't seem real to me that @DeviantBeastly would want to do this. I knew it was his -c-

-c- idea but still. Thankfully my mom had decided to give me some privacy even though I was fairly certain it was -c- @DeviantBeastly

-c- killing her to do so. For the first time in a very long time I was beginning to feel a bit of freedom and I wasn't -c- @DeviantBeastly

-c- about to let that feeling go.|} I've never been so sure of anything @DeviantBeastly {| I said softly without missing a beat. I was -c-

-c- beyond ready to put some distance between myself and this town. Since @DeviantBeastly was going to be with me? Even better. Of -c-

-c- course I wasn't going to change my mind.|} let's get out of here @DeviantBeastly {| I said softly as I made my way outside closing -c-

-c- the door back behind me|} @DeviantBeastly

{| I considered @DeviantBeastly's question carefully as I got in the car. I honestly hadn't given much thought to where I wanted to go -c-

-c- because as long as @DeviantBeastly and I were together it didn't really matter to me. As long as it wasn't here or anywhere near -c-

-c- Klaus I'd be fine. Since @DeviantBeastly did ask though I considered my options carefully. There was one place I'd always wanted -c-

-c- to go even as a little girl. I knew @DeviantBeastly would think it was silly but at least it was a big enough city it wouldn't be -c-

-c- too hard for a couple of vampires like @DeviantBeastly and myself to blend in|} New York? Boston? I don't really care as long as -c-

-c- it's away from here. @DeviantBeastly
