Caroline opened the door of her bedroom and almost stumbled over a big, flat box. She bent her knees and picked it up. She walked to her bed, put the box down and opened it. There was a red strapless dress in it and matching gloves and tiara. Caroline took it in her hand and held it up. She walked to the mirror and looked at it. It looked più like a wedding dress. She wanted to check the size and noticed a note.
‘I hope you’ll wear this dress tonight. I’ll meet te at Homecoming’
Caroline put the dress back in the box and carried it downstairs. She walked to the cucina and threw the box on the table.
“What’s your deal?” Liz asked surprised.
“Was Tyler here? Did he ask te to give me that?” Caroline asked accusatory.
“I haven’t seen Tyler” Liz detto honest. “Or anyone else for that matter. The box was on the front porch. It had your name on it. Why? What’s in it?”
Caroline nodded at the box. “See for yourself” Liz walked to the box and opened it. She took a long deep breath, which she let go slowly. “Wow. I think someone really wants te to go to the Homecoming dance. You’re wearing this, aren’t you?”
“I don’t know. Why does Tyler send me a dress for Homecoming when he’s dating Veronica?” Caroline asked insecure.
“Who says Tyler sent te the dress?” Liz fired back. “Look at yourself, Caroline. You’re beautiful, intelligent, independent, strong. Men are standing in line for you”
Caroline peeked at the dress. “It really is a nice dress” she said, giving in.

The successivo morning.
A buzzing sound, coming from Caroline’s pedestal cupboard woke her up and she opened her eyes. She took her phone and opened it. She had received a message from an unknown person.
“I know what te are and we will destroy you” she read aloud. She swung her legs off the letto and searched for her ring. When she had found it she put it on and walked to the window. She shoved the curtain and stared outside.
The sky was grey. It seemed like it was going to rain.
Caroline opened the window and climbed over the edge.
“Game on, bitch” she mumbled, before she jumped and landed gracefully on the pavers.

She bent on her knees and her hands glided over the earth. She didn’t know what she was going to find, but a strong feeling inside of her told her there was something underneath the earth. Something she needed to find.
And so she started digging with her hands. Soon her hands were wounded and dirty, but she just kept digging.
She carried on for what seemed like hours, her hands bleeding, until her fingers touched something solid. She dug faster and più fiercely, until she saw the object. When she saw Damon’s body she couldn’t breathe anymore. She covered her mouth and tears rolled over her face. She was too late.
She pulled him out of the pit and held him in her arms.
