"I can't believe you didn't tell me you and Ace Moreno were friends!"

"What are you talking about?" She shoots me a look. "No, no, no. Ace and I are not friends, okay? God, no! The guy is insufferable!"

"That sounds like the beginning of a love story not the end of one." Ivy smirks at me, and I glare at her. She is quoting Katherine Pierce now? "When did you even meet him?"

I sigh flopping down on the couch. "It is a long story." I mumble. "And I would rather not talk about it. Right now I just want to eat." I say before taking a handful of chips and shoving them in my mouth.

Ivy frowns. "You don't tell me anything anymore!"

"That is not true. I tell you things!" I say, but deep down I know it's not true.

"No, you don't. Whenever I ask about Alex or last year you just…You shut me out!" she says, frustrated, "And I'm sick of it, Eternity. I'm your friend and I care about you. Why can't you just see that? I mean, it hasbeen an entire year! And I keep thinking that, you know what? Maybe she will come to her senses eventually realize what a crappy friend she has been!"

Her words hit me like a tidal wave, and my eyes sting with unshed tears. Ivy moves in close and hugs me. "I know you've been through a rough time, Eternity, but I'm here for you and I don't believe a word of what that bitch Chloe says. I chose you. Maybe it's about time you choose me too."

It is all too much and I break down. The nausea comes over me, but I'm not prepared. It is too late to accept it, and before I go under, I realize my being upset is what makes it worse.

Then I black out.

A girl is standing in front of a train track, eyes bloodshot, tears running down her face. She takes a deep breath and a look of solemn acceptance dawns on her face.

Please don't let this be what I think it is!

She steps on the train tracks, and the chop chopping of a train starts sounding nearby.

She closes her eyes and turns away.

NO! NO!

The train is so close!

CHOO-CHOO!

It crashes.

There is a painful sting in my side, a wetness seeping through my clothes…

"Oh my god! Eternity! Oh my god, what happened!"

Ivy's screams are the last thing I hear before I lose consciousness.

Where am I? The last thing I remember is pain. Intense, unrelenting pain. I look down at myself and see that I’m wearing a white summer dress, carrying no trace of all that blood.
