~Lisa's POV
The taste of Damon's kiss still lingered on my lips when I pulled away. My chest was tight, and tears burned behind my eyes again. I couldn't breathe right, it felt like the walls were closing in on me.
"Lisa," Damon whispered, trying to touch my face again. "Please, don't…."
"I want to be alone," I said, my voice hoarse. I didn't even look at him. I just stared at the window, at the faint moonlight that crept through. It felt like the only calm thing in my world right now.
Damon sighed, rubbing the back of his neck like he was trying to hold himself together. "I'll leave," he said softly. "But only after you take something."
I shook my head weakly. "No. I don't want anything."
"Lisa…"
