The Vampire Diaries
Unforgotten Face
Chapter 2- Vulnerable
.
.
Previously: Her brown eyes stared wildly at his blue ones.
She had simply but scared asked 'what do you want'? Well that was a fairly easy reply.
"You." Damon said and bit into the skin of her neck.
Pain, tears, and suspense; is what Elena dreamed about that night.
'Who was the man with the blue eyes?' She wondered in her deep sleep. But in half a second, her eyes flashed open. She couldn't sit up which scared her. Also her wrists felt very sore.
But when her eyes got focused to the light, she wasn't in her comfy bed with washed blankets. She was staring at a wooden ceiling and was laying on what was to be a bed. And the reason her wrists hurt her was because they chained but on two bed posts. She was terribly vulnerable.
But what hit her is when she realized all that stuff; going to the woods, being chased, tripping, tearing her dress...was all true. And her neck.
Her neck it was pained her the most. And the front of her dress, all the way from her neck, to her breasts, to her waist, was covered in streaks of blood.
"Help!" Elena called out. She was starting to feel tears coming to her eyes when there was no response. But then she had heard a couple of footsteps. 'Maybe some one had heard her'. She thought instantly. "Please! Help!" She called again. But the the footsteps stopped, and a big swoosh of wind made the room stir.
And in seconds a hand was tightly placed over her mouth, so she could not speak. She was meeted by the blue eyes again. Tears rolled down her eyes to his hand when she realized all chances of her being saved were gone.

"I see you have awaken." Damon said emotionless. The girl was pretty confused. But the only thing that had kept him from not tossing her out was two reasons. First, she was fun to play with. And two, he in all of his years of being a vampire had NEVER tasted anything like her before.
"Well lets make a deal, I will unchain you. If you promise not to run and scream." Damon said with smirk on his face. Elena simply nodded her head but had 'fear' written all across her face.
"Good girl." Damon responded. He placed his hands over each one of her chained ones, looking like he was on top of her and she had no escape. "Now remember, you can't say a word." He said, hovering his body over hers. Damon slowly unlatched the metal chains and returned to where he was sitting.
Damon held his hand out, and asked for Elena to grab it. She did and he slowly pulled her up, so she could sit up.
"Now, I'm going to go get you something to drink. But I want you to be here, being silent, when I come back. Understand?" Damon said.

Elena shook her head slowly, and watched Damon walk away.
Now, was her chance to escape. She thought the back door was on the other side of the hall, so if she could just make it to the path, someone would be bound to hear her scream.
She still hadn't realized what the man with the blue eyes had done with her neck. And she didn't really want to find out. Maybe he had injected something into her neck. Elena tried to think if she had forgotten anyone.
'Okay theres, dad, mom, Yolana, Matthew.' Elena thought. Now who was she forgetting. She shrugged off, and slowly got up.
Elena scurried down the hall and sadly there was no door. She walked back past the bed to another room. There a door! Elena thought and felt her heart skip a beat in happiness. Elena ran across the whole house...now she was almost there...just maybe eleven feet away.
Now she was at the door. She placed her hand on the knob, but was quickly stopped by Damon.
XXX
'They always run.' Damon thought and laughed. But he did think this girl was clever. He stood in between her and the door. 'Good girls get rewarded, and bad ones are punished.' Damon thought.
"So how am I going to punish you?" Damon said the last part out lowd.
XXX
Elena's eyes widened. She stepped back a couple of steps, but only for Damon to step a few closer. It went like this until Elena's bare back hit the cold wall.
"Who are you?" Elena asked frightened.
"If I told you, you wouldn't believe me." Damon said and smirked. "The names Damon." He said. "But don't even think changing the subject will distract me, darling."
Elena was ready to slap this 'Damon's' face. How dare he call her darling.
"Now that were on the subject though, what might be your pretty little name?"
Elena wasn't about to tell him. In fact, she didn't say a word.
'Girls who listen, are smart. But girls who dis-obey are foolish.' Damon thought.
"Did I stutter?" Damon roared. His eyes turning a darker blue.
"Elena..."
"Elena. What a pretty name. I might not actually forget yours." Damon said and turned around walking back to the door, locking it.
Elena looked around. There was no other escape.

"Why am I here?" Elena asked. She needed to get back home. To see Matthew, and her mothe-...Oh her mother. Elena couldn't even imagine how worried her mother must be. She needed to get out of here.
Elena placed her hand on her neck. "And what did you do to my neck?" Elena exclaimed.
Damon's eyes shifted to the floor. "Oh, that. Don't worry that will be healed in a couple of hours." He said reassuringly. "Here let me take a look at that."
Damon got up and walked towards Elena. "Don't touch me." Elena said. Damon gave her a questioning look. "Please." Elena finished.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to hurt you." He said and tilted her head to look at her neck.
"Hmm." He touched a part that made Elena flinch. "I think I can help this heal faster" Damon told her.
"How?" Damon smiled from her response, turned around, bit his own wrist, turned back around, and showed it to Elena. "Drink." He simply said.
Elena looked horrified at him. Why would she drink his blood? "Trust me." Damon said.
"You have no reason to be trusted! YOU kidnapped me!" Elena exclaimed and threw her hands in the air. Damon rolled his eyes. He was getting inpatient.
He took a strong step towards Elena and thrust ed his wrist onto her lips. At first she tried to refuse, but was no match since his strong arm held her's down pressed to the wall.
Elena started to feel her neck numb down, so instead of trying to deny, she grabbed his hand and held it towards her mouth more, sucking in his blood willingly.
When Elena was fully healed, Damon took his wrist back and simply smiled at her. "Trust me now?"
Elena felt her neck, it was fully healed. Yes, there was still blood all over her dress; but her neck felt perfectly fine. She didn't know how he had done that but now she had a sick feeling, and just wanted to throw up.
"I need to leave, now." Elena said. "I'm sorry but I really don't see that an option right now. Not until I know I can trust you." Damon said.
Elena really could use a good back up plan right about now. She looked around for any sharp objects. A pen. There was a pen on the floor. Just maybe she could reach it on time. She needed to distract him.
"So...Damon. Whats your story?" Elena said, leaning over to the pen. "Like. Where's your family?"
"Well...theres no family." Damon said.
"Really? Did they move away?" It was the perfect time.
"Well-" Thats all Damon could say until Elena had grabbed the pen and stuck it into his neck. She saw Damon's eyes turn dark red, and watched purple veins pop out from under them. Elena had no time to look back, she headed for the door.

She ran through the woods, catching little branches in her hair. Her bare feet were now full of throns, but she HAD to keep going. She needed to pick up the pace. She started think about her dad and her mom, hugging her. That always brought her happiness. Or when her little cousin Jeremy came over for a stay.
She could hear Damon scream in pain. She couldn't think about him. She needed to reach the road.
XXX
Damon pulled the pen out of his neck. Now that girl, that girl was definitely in trouble. She had succeeded in distracting him though. She really did have brains. More then the other girls.
Damon ran out the door. He could easily track her scent. She had now made a new enemy.
XXX
Elena ran, she had now reached the path. Up a little more would be the town. She was almost there till a force pulled her to the ground.
It was Damon. His eyes were terrifying. He had hold of her arm. "What are you?" She choked out.
"Isn't it obvious. Some of your little children stories, are actually true." Damon said. 'Stories?' Elena thought. But then it hit her. There was no way he could have pulled out that pen so quickly. She knew she had a strong grip on him. And he must have flied to get to her that fast.
Elena's eyes went wide and she screamed.
"Is there a problem here Salvatore?" Said a unfamiliar voice. Elena turned her head. It was a male.
XXX
'Damn it, William.' Thought Damon. Damon got up and pulled Elena up softly.
"No. There isn't." Said Damon.
"Hello ma'am. Here the path is up here. Where are you heading to?" Asked the man.
"Uh, I'm just going home." Said Elena and walked away from Damon fast. She paused when she walked past William.
"Thank you sir." She said and scurried off.
After she had walked away William's face turned from calm to mad like a switching light switch. "Damon!" William roared. "You know how close you were to exposing yourself? And this close to town? There's no idea what she will tell the people!"
"Calm, William. This one is different. Trust me. She won't tell a word. She can keep a secret." Damon said and smirked.
"You compelled her?" William asked with a smile.
"Nope." Damon said, smiling.

Back at home, everyone was asleep. Thankfully. Who knows what her parents would have thought with blood all over her dress. And her arriving at such a late hour.
She slowly walked up the stairs, took off her corset, changed into her night dress, and crawled into bed.
She knew this had sounded stupid. But she was going to see Damon again. She wanted to. She wasn't sure if it was to scold at him, or what. But she needed to talk to him.
What was he? Who was he? Whatever. Elena went to sleep, and prepared in her mind for the next day.
Authors Note: Goooodd? When I first made this chapter it was to lovely, gushy. And I knew Elena and Damons relationship in the show and books did not EVER start romantic. But the next chap willl be upp soon! Love you review!
