Description
"Please don't lie. I know we haven't seen each other in over a century, but I still feel like we're friends." "We're not friends, Bree," he snaps, continuing to look around the studio. "Why not?" "It's too painful. I don't do friends," he growls. "What's painful about friends?" I ask confused. "I can't be friends with someone I love." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It's been exactly 147 years since Aubrey Baxter left Mystic Falls and broke off contact with Damon and Stefan. Sure she checked in on them from time to time, ( Who do you think sent Lexi their way? ) but she never communicated with them. Aubrey assumed the Salvatore brothers thought she was dead and she wanted it to stay that way. That was until Stefan turned off his humanity and went on a road trip with Klaus. Without Lexi to flip his switch, Aubrey had to do something. That meant going back to Mystic Falls and risking falling deeper in love with Damon Salvatore. Takes place during season 3; Sequel to Ripped Away This is a Vampire Diaries Fanfic so all rights to characters and events belong to the CW channel and L.J Smith along with whoever else deserves credit.
