 Even after all the time spent together, the sacrifices made for him  ( because of him ). Sebastian could not yet grasp the idea of someone having a love for fierce and deep for his very own self. The horrors of his actions still danced inside his mind and the lack of regret weighted heavy on his shoulder. Like a burden he did not dare to place on her. But he had grown to be a selfish man, and the yearning he felt for her overpowered his own desire to keep her far from his darkest demons. And when she shows up at his place, unannounced, he couldn’t help the smirk that grew daring on his lips. A devilish glint on his eyes. “ Well come on in then, love. I had been dying to see you as well.”

 Memories.          Those   were   the   only   things   to   keep   him   company   as   his   body   lied   empty,     dried   out   in   a   box.     They   were   of   her,     all   of   them.     Desperate   feelings   as   he   lied   there   watching   helpless   how   he’d   lose   her.     Warm   feelings   laced   with   melancholy   &&   pain   as   he   remembered   her   smile   &&   the   shine   of   her   eyes,     bright   as   the   son.     He   thought   her   gone   forever   but   as   his   eyes   landed   on   her,     as   beautiful   as   his   mind   had   kept   her   on   his   memories,     he   thought   himself   luckiest   of   all.          “  ah,     you   know...     I   spent   most   of   my   time   on   that   box   trying   to   come   to   term   with   the   fact   that   I   was   never   seeing   you   again.”     his   voice  soft   as   a   cool   hand   rose   to   caress   her   cheek   with   ternderness.     “  I’ve   never   been   more   glad   of   failing.”

 Hell was putting it lightly. Being locked in a box, trapped only with his thoughts and the haunting thought of being the cause of her death had been a form of torture that hell wouldn’t be able to replicate. That limbo where he had been trapped for so long was a form of death he had never experienced before. An experience that left him longing for the ending of his life. Being woken from that slumber and brought back by the Salvatore School’s students was both a relief and a cruel joke from the universe. He had long since came to terms with the idea of never waking up again, of living trapped in his thoughts and the memory of her.

 Meeting with her again... that was something Sebastian never thought capable, and finding out she had been trapped in his own pendant, resting on his chest, so close to his undead heart, felt like an even bigger joke, a betrayal of sort he could not be mad for. She had saved him, unaware of the demons lurking in the darkness of his mind. And she had stayed with him for as long as he had been lost among them. Thinking that perhaps, her years trapped had been just as horrifyingly tortuous as his, made him shiver and reach for her as if he could protect her from all that time now.
