Here is another chapter. Two in one day?! What is this haha. Hope you enjoy x


Elenas POV

I picked my books and went to my first class, Math. Following the map I had in my hand, I managed to find the place right before the bell.

Most of the people were already seated so I went to the spare seat on the top right. I sat down and got my books out.

"Welcome back Class, hope you had a good break, now let's get back into our Math!" Our Math teacher calls out. I plonked my head in my hand and waited for the bell to ring.

Finally the class finished and I ran out of the class. I had a study period, but I was actually going to the gym with... Damon. I went back to my dorm and pick some appropriate exercise gear. Damon came into the door and grabbed his sneakers.

"You ready?" He smirked as I shivered.

"Yes," I briskly replied as he just nodded as I followed him to the school gym.

"Alright so what do you want to work on today? Arms? Legs?" Damon asked me as we entered the sweaty room.

"Uh what do you recommend?" Damon went to the treadmill and patted it.

"I suggest you start with a run, seeing as you probably don't do much exercise," he chuckled as I grimaced at him. He was right but was he calling me fat.

"Not saying your fat or anything uh, ha anyways get started," he told me and I stood on the treadmill and pushed the button. I stared with a slow jog since I had never used this thing before.

"Ok now pick up the pace, slowly," Damon told me and I pressed the button. But being the clumsy person I and I pressed for to long and the speed increased at to fast, earning to fling off the back and I to the weights. One of the 10kg weights landed on my arm and I hear a snap.

"Ahhhhh," I screamed as I fought tears. Damon rushed to me with a very confused face.

"Gilbert? What happened," he rushed to me and took the weight of my arm.

"Shit," he said under his breath as he looked at my mangled arm. I breathed fast and started to panic. It was broken! I had never broken something in my life.

"No, Jer , don't cry it's ok," Damon awkwardly patting my shoulder as I felt fat tears fall down my face I wiped them with my good arm.

"We need to take you to the nurses room," he said as he help me up and I tingled a bit as his hand pulled me up. He then let go and I instantly missed his touch. A crowd was around us and I cover my face with my hand as Damon led me to the nurse.

"Uh Damon, what can I do for you," the plump nurse asked him.

"My mate here fell off the treadmill and a heavy weight landed on his arm. We thinks it's broken." Damon explained at as the nurse led me to the bed and told me to lie down.

"Ok, what's your name?" She asked me

"Jeremy Gilbert," I crooked out.

"Ok Jeremy, I'm going to check your arm for you to see what's the damage. If it is broken we will need to go to the hospital for X-rays. I will need one of your friends to take you with a note since I'm unable to leave the campus." I nodded. Who on earth would take me. She checked my arm and the pain was incredibly sore.

"Im sorry it's broken," the nurse said as I just laughed at how stupid the accident was.

"I'll take him," Damon's voice said behind the nurse. I didn't even know he was still here.

"Ok thank you Damon," the nurse led us out and wrote a note. Shit shit shit. The hospital fuck... They will know I'm not Jeremy! Oh god. If we got to Mystic falls hospital I will be in deep shit.

"I don't want to go," I mumbled.

"Jeremy you have too because that could be a very bad break. Damon, take him to the closest hospital. I think it's near here," Damon nodded. My heart felt relived. We didn't need to go to Mystic falls.

We were now waiting for a doctor to take me in. "Thanks for everything," I smiled to him. "Nah it's all good. It's my fault you wet to the gym in the first place," he smiled back and I held his gaze. I studied his pools of ocean. Sinking further into his soul. He stared back with as much fascination. A clear of a throat brought us back to reality

"Jeremy Gilbert?" The doctor who had sandy blonde hair greeted.

"Uh yes," I awkwardly got up and followed the doctor leaving a startled Damon behind.

I was finally done with the doctor. It was a clean break so I didn't need an operation which I was so please about. But I was pissed I broke my writing hand so I couldn't write properly. They had put a white cast on my forearm and was told I had to keep it on for 6 weeks! Argh.

The car ride back to the school was silent and awkward. Till Damon broke the silence.

"So I have a date with Katherine tonight," I just nodded and told him good luck.

"Yeah thanks, I hope things get better," he smiled to himself and tapped the steering wheel. His car was very impressive. I loved it. I guessed he did too with the way he drove it carefully. Finally we pulled up to Whitmore and I hoped out of the blue Chevy. I said my good byes to him and headed to my dorm and rested just like the doctor told me to.

I woke in the dark to a slam of the door and sobs.

"Damon?" I asked as the figure in the darkness turned round.

"I'm fine," he said and I swore I heard him sniff. I turned the lamp on and saw Damon leaning against the room door, on the ground. Silent tears fell down his beautiful face. Fuck this couldn't be good. I got out of the bed and walked to him. Sitting beside him I asked the question burning in my mind.

"What's wrong?" He just shook his head and roughly rubbed his eyes. I noticed he had a bottle of bourbon beside him. I could smell it.

"Katherine," he quietly said.

"What happened,"

"I found out she had been seeing my brother at the same time as me and she told me see never loved me. She told me she was only using me to get to my brother and it worked. So... So she didn't need me anymore, so she let me go," with that he rested his head in knees that were now raised . He hugged himself as my heart bleed for him. How dare she.

"I'm sorry, I must sound like such a baby... But we had been going out for five years! For fucking years! And now I find out it was all just a lie. A big fat fucking lie," with that he took a long swig of the amber liquid.

"I'm so sorry Damon," I softly said.

"It's strange, I've only met you but it seems like I know you so well." Damon said facing me and I fought everything to wipe his tears that rested on his face, away.

His eyes met mine and the connection we had at hospital came again. Subconsciously I felt myself lean in and surprisingly Damon did the same. I felt his bourbon breath fan over face. Before my lips met his he pushed me away and got to his feet.

"What the fuck man!" He said running his hands through his hair.

"I'm not like that! What the fuck is happening?" He said to himself.

"I'm sorry," I began.

"I've gotta go"

"Where?" But before he could reply, he left.

I'm in some deep as shit now...
