I sat silently in the diner with Damon, seconds before I had leaned forward and kissed him and for the first time ever, he looked shocked."This is Elena right?"
"What?"
"You're not Katherine?"
"Why would I be Katherine?"
"Last time I kissed you and you kissed me back you were Katherine."
"Well, I'm not Katherine."
"good." he smirked and it made me smile. "I was going to head back to mystic falls after this..." I nodded pretending I hadn't heard. "Elena?"
"I heard." Damon nodded "and you don't want to come?" I shook my head and sipped my coffee "I want to go back I miss home but..." Damon nodded and finished my sentence for me "you don't want to see Stefan" I nodded and Damon grinned "So you're going to let him dictate your life..." I looked up "What?"
"He is going to ruin your life and your going to let him..."
"Damon you don't know what you're talking about!"
"Really? Because I let him ruin mine!" I looked at Damon narrowing my eyes "Listen Elena, I let him ruin my life but I'm not putting up with it, I go back so I can give him hell..." i gave Damon and an evil smile "so you want me to go back with you and give Stefan hell..." Damon returned the smile and winked. I wasn't one for the evil revenge but I liked this plan.
Damon and I left the diner and stood out in the street for a couple of minutes "So...I guess I'll drop you home and then see you in the morning where we then head to mystic falls" he grinned and I beamed back then Damon paused "there could be one more thing..."
"What?" I narrowed my eyes at Damon, I was two inches away from him he moved my hair and stroked my neck "You want to turn me..." Damon's eyes shot straight into mine "no...But apparently you want me too."
"Damon it always had to come to this..."
"No..."
"Fine...I'll grow old and die..."
"Elena, me and you will never work..."
"But we worked as friends we could work again..." Damon nodded and bit his wrist I shook my head not here...back at my apartment where I can't hurt anyone by accident.
I sucked the blood from Damon's wrist and I could feel him trying to pull me off, when I finally broke free I stared at him. "Damon you have to do it, I can't turn unless you kill me."
"Elena I can't I'm sorry" I tutted and sighed "Fine I'll do it myself..." Damon narrowed his eyes and followed me as I rushed to the kitchen and grabbed a knife..."see...you do it or I will..." Damon shook his head and tried to take the knife but I pulled away and plunged the knife into my chest it was strange it was less like pain and more like relief, I could feel myself drop to the floor and I felt Damon catch me "Dam it Elena..."
I woke up in my bed and I noticed Damon sitting at the end of the bed "Damon..."
"Elena? How do feel?"
"Hungry." Damon nodded and threw something at me I caught it and then stared...it was a blood bag "Damon...perhaps I can't do this..." he stood up and stared at me "Elena drink it...you stabbed yourself YOU wanted this. So drink..."
"Damon...its blood..."
"and no one died it's from a blood bank, either drink it or I'll make you" I threw the bag down and sat on the bed so my legs were dangling over the edge. I heard Damon sigh and then I felt him pin my throat back and he was on top of me. "I'm sorry Elena" he held my throat and poured the blood in with one hand I gargled and tried to resist but it felt soothing on my dry throat and as I swallowed it all I felt myself getting dizzy. Then Damon released my throat and got off me."i'm sorry Elena" I turned around and fell asleep" When I woke up I felt different I stood up and looked in the mirror I looked no different, paler perhaps , but then I smelt something and my eyes changed they turned red and I could see the veins pumping around them just like I had seen on Stefan and Damon so often. Then I heard a cough from behind me and as I turned I felt the veins disappear. "Damon!"
"Rise and shine!"
"am I..."
"a vampire? yeah doesn't feel that different yet does it...trust me that will change, we better get on the road especially if we want to get to mystic falls" I nodded "just let me get change." Damon nodded but just stood there "in private..." Damon sighed "fine if you must..."

I was sitting in the motel room sipping occasionally at a bottle of blood I had in my right hand I was surprised how little blood I wanted. Then Damon came in throwing his jacket onto the bed he held my old necklace back up," and considers old vervain necklace de-vervained and all magic ked up lets test it." I stood up and Damon lifted my hair to slip the necklace on.
For the first time in days I felt the sunlight on my face and I heard Damon chuckle from behind me. "It's good isn't it, everything feels different and new" I nodded even though I didn't agree, everything felt normal.
Damons old car pulled into mystic falls just as the sun went down and I gave him a concerned look "what's wrong?"
"What is Jeremy going to say?"
"He is going to say oh my big sister give me a big hug!"
"Oh my god or Alaric, or bonnie! Oh Damon I didn't think this through..."
"It's a bit late now..."
"I know...and I'm sorry, I asked you to do it...but thank you" Damon smirked and waggled his eyebrows "well that IS me, the always helpful Damon Salvatore..."
"So where to first?"
"We don't want too many people seeing you now, we'll head to the boarding house first I think, say high to that little brother of mine..." I gulped and held my hands close to me "Elena, you're a vampire now, everything between you and Stefan its the past, if there is a future for you two them it has to be...an..." I shook my head before Damon could add anything too that sentence "I am never going to be with Stefan again , Damon he hurt me...and I'll never forget that...I promise..." Damon nodded and parked his car outside the boarding house. "Well here goes nothing."

Damon knocked on the door of the boarding house, I stood cautiously behind him , I wasn't sure how Stefan would react to me being back, I couldn't imagine how he would react to me being a Vampire. Damon knocked again and as the door opened I could see his face light up "hello brother" he grinned and I could see from behind Damon's shoulder that Stefan wasn't smiling. "What are you doing back brother?"

"I decided I wasn't going to be driven away from my home by you any longer! You monster!" he mocked "no Damon, I tried to contact you years ago you didn't want to come home..." Damon rested his hand on the doorway and blew out a breath "Well you've caught me out there. Okay I admit, While in a little bar in little Chicago I came across a mutual friend of ours that wished to visit so I was just kind enough to give her a lift" Damon grinned "What are you-"Stefan was about to continue but Damon had pulled me forward and wrapped his arm around my shoulders "now my dear brother are not going to invite us in?" Stefan's eyes began to widen at the sight of me and after he had stepped backwards to let us in the most unexpected thing was released from his mouth. "Katherine?" my mouth dropped open and I felt Damon's hand on my arm holding me from doing anything I would regret. Damon spoke just before an angry growl escaped my lips "actually, no. Now we have a new Dead girlfriend to fight over for all eternity, well for you to Love for all eternity and me to have friendship...well with benefits of course" I swear in normal life I would've hit Damon for that comment but the shear shock on Stefan's face was priceless I couldn't help but taunt him more. I picked up my hand and wrapped it into Damon's making Stefan tense up. "What's wrong? Stefan, aren't you pleased to see me?"
