"Bonnie, Elena!" I heard Stefan calling after us, but I didn't care. I was going to see Damon! I smiled to myself again, and pushed my legs to go faster. I turned down the hallway and opened the bedroom door. I stood in the doorway. Stefan came up behind me and Bonnie. I started walking into the room.

"Damon?" I called. Bonnie grabbed my hand. I turned around and glared at her. What was she doing? Damon was somewhere in his room and she wouldn't let me go and find him? "Let go of me." I said, pulling my hand away. I searched around his room. I turned around and saw Stefan behind me. He looked into my eyes and I felt my tears streaming down my face. I looked at Bonnie. She shrugged her shoulders and walked towards me. She put her arms around me and let me cry.

"But .. I .. I heard .." I sobbed in her arms. Stefan looked apologetic at me.

"Elena, it was probably just the furnace or something kicking in." Stefan said. I sat down on Damon's bed. I looked down and hugged myself in Damon's leather jacket.

"How could this have happened?" I cried. Bonnie and Stefan exchanged glances.

"Maybe I should get you home." Bonnie said, coming towards me. I pulled away from her.

"No, I think I'm just going to stay here a little longer." Bonnie and I looked at Stefan, he just shrugged and left the room.

"Are you sure, Elena?" Bonnie asked me. I nodded and she left, closing the door behind her. I laid down on his bed, throwing the comforter over top over me. I rolled onto my side and looked around his room. Nothing had changed. His clothes were still hanging in his closet, his books were still neatly piled up, and his sheets still smelled like him. I closed my eyes and hoped I'd see him in my dreams.

I sat up from the bed. I looked around the room and nothing had changed. I got up and walked into the washroom. I looked into the mirror and saw the begs under my eyes. I walked out of the washroom and went to flip through the books on Damon's desk. There was a note written in one of the books. It was addressed to me? I heard the door behind me open. I closed the book and turned around. Damon was standing in the doorway. He was in front of me in less than one second. He put his arms around my waist and kissed me tenderly.

"I'm sorry." He whispered. I pulled away from him.

"For what?" I questioned.

"That they don't believe you." He said, closing his eyes. "I knew Stefan would be harder to convince, but I thought Bonnie would for sure." I put my hand on his cheek. "I love you, Elena."

"I love you too." I whispered. "Damon?" I asked him. He opened his eyes and stared at me. "Are you real?" I asked, feeling my throat get tighter. He sat me down on the bed then grabbed the book I was looking through. He handed it to me.

"Close your eyes." He whispered in my ear. When I closed them I felt his lips brush mine. He took my hand in his and placed the book in it. He kissed me again, then I felt his lips on my ear. "You can open it. But first, you have to wake up."

I opened my eyes. I was sitting on the end of a hospital bed with the same book Damon had handed to me. Why was I in a hospital? I flipped through the book. I found in the middle of the book a letter. It has my name on it, I opened it quickly.

Dear Elena,

Your probably confused about this letter. I just wanted to tell you to keep trying, I believe you. Know that no matter what happens I will love you forever. You saved me from the dark, and I will forever be greatful for what you have done for me. I know you probably don't want to hear any of this but you have to stop. You have to stop look for me. You'll see I've been right beside you this whole time when you finally wake up. Please wake up, for me. I miss you. I need you.

Love you forever,

Damon.

I looked up from my letter. What was Damon talking about? I was awake! Bonnie walked into the room.

"Elena?" She asked. When she saw I was awake she walked to the bed and sat beside me. "You alright?" She asked. I looked up at her.

"Bonnie?" I asked. "Why am I in a hospital?" I cried.

"Elena," She whispered with tears forming in her eyes. "Please, wake up." She kept staring at me. What was she talking about? I was awake! Stefan knocked on the door. He walked in and put his hand on Bonnie's shoulder.

"Did she wake up?" He asked her. Bonnie looked at Stefan then back to me.

"Not yet." She answered.


I was still sitting on the bed, wrapped in Damon's jacket and holding his letter. Bonnie and Stefan had left. I sat in the bed. Then the door opened.

"Any news?" A familiar voice said. I couldn't see his face, but I saw his hand on the handle. Who was he talking to? Stefan? Bonnie? What news was he talking about.

"She's doing better, all she has to do now is ..." A husky voice said. Who was that? Then all my dreams came true when the man walked into the room and closed the door. He walked right passed me and sat in a chair next to a girl laying in the bed. I looked at the girl then realized it was me? This couldn't be right. I was right here. I looked at the similar face. There were wires and a oxygen tank hooked up to her face. Damon took the girls hand, and I felt mine tingle.

"Hey." He said, kissing my lips. I touched mine. I could feel him!

"Damon." I said. Walking closer to him. He took my corpses hand in his.

"Doctor said your doing better." He said, smirking. "I wrote you another letter." He said, reaching into his pocket.

"Damon." I sighed. He couldn't see me? I put my hand to my throat, feeling in tighten.

"You can read it." He said, putting it in the girl's hand. "But first, you have to wake up." He said, his eyes began watering and his breath got heavier. I walked up to him and touched his back. He twitched a little. Did he feel that? I touched his back again, but kept it there. He stood from the chair and looked around him. He did feel it. I put my hands on his cheeks and he looked right into my eyes. I smiled to myself. I touched my lips to his cheek. His hand flew to were I kissed it. His breathing increased.

"Damon." I whispered. "Damon, it's me." He put his hand out to touch me. I closed my eyes and waited for his hand to rest on my cheek. But nothing happened. When I opened them I saw his hand go right through my neck. I felt a tear trickled down my cheek. Damon turned from me and sat back down in his chair next to my limp body. He kissed my cheek, again, I felt a tingle.


Okay so I kinda lied about getting this posted. I wasn't expecting it up until later on but I'm really sick right now and I wasn't able to do homework or anything. So here you go. Your probably confused as hell, and I'm really sorry for that so heres a recap on whats actually going on;

Elena and Bonnie run up to Damon's room but only to find, nothings there and that what they heard was just the furnace (or "something") So Bonnie and Stefan leave, Elena has a dream. But when she wakes up she's in the hospital. She really wasn't concerned about that, because she has a letter from Damon in her hands. After she opens it Bonnie walks in and is oblivious to her. (Because she is actually on the hospital bed, which you find out later)Then after she leaves Damon comes in. Then Elena realizes that, first of all, he isn't dead. Second of all, he doesn't notice her. When she turns around she sees herself, laying in a hospital bed. It's almost like anesthetic awareness, but she isn't in surgery or anything, only coma. Then everytime Damon touches her body, she can feel it. And when she touches him, he can feel something. But he can't actually touch her because she is like a ghost figure kinda thing. Main Idea! - Sorry if this isn't making any sense, if you still don't understand just tell me and I'll try my best to explain better. And just to let everyone know .. the final chapters are around the corner (that was really gay, sorry) Please read and review !
