Honestly if they back off I think it would be a lot more painful for me. They feel like a comfort blanket I had missing my entire life and having that means everything to me, mama. It’s just a matter of adjusting to them and figuring out how I fit in with them. I understand that it’s all entirely in my head but I feel like the odd one out. Like eventually everyone is going to realize I’m an extra piece they don’t need. I just need to get over myself.
I get it, baby. If there’s anybody in the world you don’t have to explain that feeling to, it’s me, and not just because I’m your mother. Back when I lived in camp, my relationship with my family was...really complicated. I did a lot of things that I’m not too proud of trying to prove that my dad could love me, and basically half my relationship with Nick was fighting, I lived with Klaus for about six months at one point. Don’t feel bad about it, those witches all screwed us over. It’s really hard for me sometimes, still, too. But I need you, okay? As lost and confused as you feel, don’t ever doubt that.
