Caroline tucked the last of her bags into the trunk of her car before she let out a sigh. She knew not everyone understood why she felt like leaving was a good idea, but she knew that it was. Caroline couldn't stay in Mystic Falls right now. It was just too much for anyone to really handle. Really she wasn't sure how she'd made it this long, or how any of them had made it this far. But regardless of everything she'd made the decision to leave town and try to find herself again somewhere else. She wasn't sure where that was, but she'd know where she was supposed to be when she got there.
"We're going to miss you," Bonnie said hugging Caroline clearly sad that this was happening.
Caroline nodded and sent a small smile to her best friends. "I'm going to miss you guys too, but I need to do this."
"Promise you'll call us when you land somewhere," Elena said also moving in for a hug. Caroline nodded her head and with one last final goodbye she climbed into her car and drove away.
Damon had been done with Mystic Falls for a while now, but with everything that had been going on he hadn't wanted to leave town. Probably because he was worried about Elena, her brother, shockingly his brother, and honestly everyone else as well. And while he wasn't going to say that things were all better and that there was nothing to worry about, given that would be a lie because there was always something going on in this town, he felt like he was finally at a point where he could leave and not feel bad. So he'd back himself a bag, made sure to leave a note so people hopefully didn't worry about him or come looking for him, and then taken off. He wasn't really looking for anything in particular just somewhere that wasn't here. And while he hoped it wouldn't take him long to find what he was looking for, he had well eternity to look for it if he really needed to.
