I haven't written in FOREVER. But I find unless it's something that really intrigues me, I get bored and don't keep it up. This story, if there is a positive feedback anyway, will probably be approximately 2-7 chapters. Depending on whether I want an actual story line, or just some nice fluff to get you people through the long hard weeks without TVD.

Sire bond. Of course. Julie Plec can't let us Delena fans be happy for one episode. Ugh. Anywho. This is pretty much my view on what I think should happen after the last episode where Damon told Elena to go home, and forget about him, and yeah. Hope you like it, I'm not sure if it's going to be a one-shot or an actual story, that's up to you guys, and whether you like it or not (:

"I'm setting you free, Elena. This is what I want. This is what will make me happy."

~ Damon: 4.09

"I was ready to fight you on this, but suddenly every part of my body is telling me that I need to get in this car and leave you."

My last words to Damon were all I could think about. Of course my body was telling me to leave. It was the sire bond! Damon told me to leave, told me it'd make him happy, and BAM, that's what I had to do.

So that's what I did, I left, I came home. But it didn't feel like home. I wasn't quite sure what it felt like, but it most definitely wasn't home. When I told Stefan how I felt, he said it was the effects of the sire bond wearing off, and in a few days it wouldn't feel like this anymore, well it's been a week and it still does. There's another thing to think about. Stefan. I most definitely wasn't getting back together with him, and I think that surprised him. I mean the look on his face when I came home and didn't immediately run into his arms was just- ugh, seriously though. Did he think that as soon as I broke my sire bond, I was going to fall in love with him? No. So here I was locked up in my room, because if I so much as took a step outside I was afraid I'd lose it. Stefan and Caroline kept telling me Damon did the right thing. That I deserved to be free. But didn't Damon deserve to be happy?

"Elena!" I heard Caroline's voice yell from the bottom of my stairs, interrupting my inner monologue "Get your ass up. Now! It's been a week, you're coming out with me."

"Caroline. Get out of my house. Now." I said in a voice that I'd use to normally hold a conversation with someone, but I knew she heard me. Yeah we weren't exactly on speaking terms at the moment, I mean she was the reason Damon decided to let me go, she was also the reason that Stefan was so clingy all of a sudden.

The door opened and in burst Caroline;

"I just don't get it," Caroline said looking curious "Stefan said you should be over it by now."

"Did you ever stop to think that maybe just maybe, I didn't act like that around Damon because of the sire bond?!" I said my voice going up an octave. Of course. She blamed me being bitchy on Damon and the sire bond, did she ever think, maybe the reason I was acting like I was, was because a certain blonde vampire couldn't keep her mouth shut.

"Well, no," Caroline said quietly "I suppose me and Stefan just kind of assumed. But I mean you couldn't like Damon." I rolled my eyes. She was really hating on him for the stuff he did to her when she was human.

"And why not?"

"Well, because. He's Damon." She said.

"Ugh. Caroline, just because you have something against Damon, doesn't mean he has to be alone forever. Or-" I broke off.

"You really care about him, don't you?" She said softly.

"Yes."

"Then, ugh I never thought I'd ever say this," she said shaking her head with a smile on her face "but I think you should go after him. I never saw you this upset about Stefan. Ever. "

"You really think so Caroline?"

"I'm saying do whatever would make you happy Elena. Cleary Stefan is the better choice-" she broke off when I growled at her "but, Damon clearly makes you happy. So go. We'll find another way to break the sire bond." She smiled.

"But-" I started

"No buts. Now go before I change my mind."

"Stefan." I said quietly, but I was already up and throwing things into a duffel bag.

"I won't tell him, I'll just say that you needed to get away," she smiled handing me random articles of clothing "in the meantime, I'll have Bonnie look into if there are any other ways to break the sire bond," she said then added quietly "I suppose I could ask Klaus too."

I smiled "Klaus? I don't know if that's the best idea. But do what you have to. Oh and thanks, Care."

"Just playing the role of the best friend," She smirked "Now go."

I smiled, walked up to her and gave her a hug, and with that, I was in my car and on my way to my lake house.

"Call me if you need anything!" Caroline yelled from the front porch.

I laughed "Kay, and you call me if you find anything, or if Stefan becomes too you-know."

"Yeah, yeah. Call you if I find anything out that'll help you and your new boyfriend out, or if your ex-boyfriend decides to play the hero role. Be safe!" She smiled.

I laughed and sped down the street, heading for what I hoped could be a new beginning.

So there it is Read and Review! If enough people want me to continue I will. If not I will probably just delete this story, I don't want to write just to amuse myself. I mean technically there is no Delena in this scene, so LOWER YOUR PITCHFORKS. But there will be if I choose to continue. Otherwise this is pretty much what I want to happen next week when the Vampire Diaries comes back.
