AN: This is a fanfiction I had completed last year, but I didn't post it until now. I just always loved the idea of the story. What if John Gilbert didn't save Elena in 2x21: The Sun Also Rises. Also a huge thanks to my beta: amygerrard(Amy), who makes this story looks a lot better. This is just a short multi-fic.

Her heart rate sped up as she clung to her chest, an unbearable cry ripping from her throat.
