Okay here is another chapter. I would like to thank everyone who reviewed and favourited/alerted this fanfiction. It means a lot that you people actually like this story :D Anyways I would like to say sorry if this chapters not that good. It was Mother's Day today and I didn't really have a lot of time to make this perfect.

Elena

I have to make a decision. Do I want to turn and live forever, thirsting for blood? Can I live with the fact that somewhere down the road of my eternity that I might kill someone? Or do I want to die. Waste away until I'm gone from this world. Can I leave my family and friends, the little that I do have left?

Can I leave Stefan and Damon? I look up into Damon's eyes and couldn't stand the pain I saw there. I need to make a decision and I need to make it now. I look down at my interlaced hands as I think of the pros and cons of vampirism and death. A loud shrilling sound echo's into the once again silent room, I look around for the source of the noise. Damon pulled out his cell phone; he looked down at the device and answered it.

I heard Jeremy's frantic shouts on the other line, he sounded panicked. I instantly got on my feet and walked towards Damon, worried that something happened to Jeremy. I felt my heart drop at Jeremy's sobs on the other line, crying that I'm dead and that no one is answering their phones.

"Jeremy, Elena's not dead" Damon's voice cut off Jeremy's sobs. I felt bad for not immediately thinking of Jeremy, how can I leave my brother when he has no one left? Jeremy started to demand to know where I am, but Damon told him that he wasn't allowed to see me for awhile. I knew Damon was right, that if I complete the transition then I will be extremely dangerous. I can't put Jeremy's life at risk no matter how much we want to see each other.

Damon hung up the phone, without giving him any explanation on why he can't see me. I plunked myself back onto the sofa. I watched as Damon walked over to the drinking cart and poured some bourbon into a glass and sat down in front of the fireplace. His whole body was covered from the back of the chair. I felt a pain pierce my heart; did I hurt Damon that much that he can't even look at me?

I continued to bore holes into the back of Damon's chair, trying to make him turn around and look at me. I felt a hand rub my thigh; my head snapped to the side and noticed that it was Stefan. He continued to rub, up and down my thigh. I think he thought it would comfort me, but right now it just irritates my skin. My whole body is starting to ache and I feel so hungry.

I stand up to subtly get Stefan's hand off my thigh without hurting his feelings. I walk over to the fire place, looking over at Damon I had a strong urge to smooth the frown lines from his forehead. He didn't deserve all the pain he has to bare; he deserves a life full of happiness with a woman that loves him unconditionally.

The possessiveness that took over my body surprised me. The thought of another girl kissing Damon, loving Damon, makes me want to take him and hide him away from the female body. I clench my jaw and turn away, I can't keep doing this. I made my choice and I choose Stefan. I look at the clock on the wall and notice that it's almost morning. I need to make a decision now, live or die.

"Can someone get me blood?" I ask hesitantly, I finally made my choice. I need to turn; I can't leave Jeremy, Caroline, Bonnie, Stefan and Damon behind. I can't put them through the pain of losing any more people; we all already lost too much. I looked between Stefan and Damon, wondering who is going to get me the blood. Stefan shot up from his seat and wrapped his arms around me.

"God, thank you Elena" his voice was filled with relief and happiness. His arms unwrapped from my body and he shot down to the basement like a bat out of hell. I look back over to where Damon was sitting, the back of the chair blocking my view of his face. I was about to go over to him and tell him how sorry I am for putting him through all this pain, when Stefan came back with a blood packet in his hand.

He handed it to me with eager eyes, it was already open and the moment the heavenly scent hit my nose I was a goner. I savagely devoured the blood, dropping to the ground. I continued to suck on the packet even though somewhere in the back of my mind I realized that it was empty. I felt a presence near me and instinctually I let an animalistic growl escape as I curled in, protecting my food.

"Elena, stop now" a velvety voice penetrated through the fog of hunger. I looked up and spotted the most beautiful blue eyes I have ever seen.

Damon.

I look down; blood was splattered all over my hands and probably my face to. I threw the packet away and backed up into the couch, disgusted with my lack of control. I couldn't help the sobs that shook my whole frame, I'm a monster. I turned into a monster. I look back up at Damon and beg him with my eyes to hold me. I need his strength to get me through this.

He starts to walk towards me when Stefan steps in front of him, walking up to me and crouching down to my level. He sat down beside me and wrapped his arms around my frame, pulling me onto his lap. I turn my head and look over towards Damon. His face a mask of indifference, I shook my head at him, telling him with my eyes how much I need his support, but he just turns and leaves the house.

I start to sob louder, a feel of foreboding washing over me. The slam of the boarding house door feels symbolic, like he is letting me go, like he is closing the door on this part of his life. I squeeze my eyes shut and try to stop the pain that has encompassed my heart. I need Damon, I want Damon.

These arms don't give me the comfort that they used to; his arms don't give me a tingling feeling that they used to. They don't make me feel cherished anymore. That is now reserved for one person and that is Damon, my anti-hero, my dark prince, my love. I ripped myself from Stefan's grasp and run after Damon. I almost tore the door off in my haste to get to Damon, but before it could open fully a hand shot out a slammed it closed. I turned around and glared at Stefan.

"What are you doing" I screamed at him, I needed to get to Damon. The feeling like I would never see Damon again was tearing through me and I needed to get to him, find him and tell him how much I need him. Stefan shakes his head at me, lowering his eyes to the ground.

"Elena, it's almost morning and you have no daylight ring" my heart dropped into the pit of my stomach. This couldn't be happening; I dropped down to the floor, I'm going to lose Damon. A new round of tears started as I thought of a world without Damon. Suddenly my vision went out of focus and a swirl of images flashed past my eyelids.

Damon's love confession after they saved me from Rose and Trevor flashed into my mind. All his love for me pouring out of him in that moment, all his walls were down. One lone tear fell from his right eye as he compelled me to forget the beautiful words that came from his soul.

The scene changed and I was standing in a parking lot waiting for my parents to pick me up. Looking up from my phone, I noticed the sexiest man I have ever seen standing in front of me. Damon thinking I was Katherine at first and then telling me that I want a love that consumes me, passion, adventure and even a little danger. Him compelling me to get everything I'm looking for and to forget all about him.

I opened my eyes and I was back in the boarding house, sitting on the ground. I look up and notice Stefan's worried eyes gazing down at me and in that moment everything fell into place, I'm in love with Damon Salvatore.
