Chapter 3:

Elena POV

So I had gotten as comfortable in the tomb cellar as I think is possible.

Katherine had gotten a mattress down there, don't ask me how.

And that was a good thing; it was okay comfortable, it was better than sleeping on the floor.

Damon was sitting on the floor across the room just staring at his knees.

I felt like I had to break the silence, but I didn't know what to say.

So I pulled my iPod up,

"You brought your iPod?" Damon asked half laughing,

"Yearh, is there something wrong with that?" I asked,

"We are in a tomb" he said like I should know something,

"And there can't be music?" I asked,

"I guess I have no point" he said smiling,

"I need music to stay sane down here" I said and put in the earphones.

I turned the music on and 'All I need' by Within Temptation came on.

I let the song play and I couldn't help but smile.

My memory flew to when Damon and I danced at the 'Miss Mystic Falls'

He was there that time too.

All of the sudden the song was already over, I had replayed the whole scene in my head, apparently with a big smile on my face.

The song ended and I heard Damon's voice,

"What are you smiling about?" he asked,

I took the earphones out and put the iPod down.

"Oh, nothing, just...*I cleared my throat*...memories" I answered,

"Okay" he said letting it go.

I sighed, "So, what should we pass time with?" I asked him, it would be a longtime if it went like this all the time.

"I don't know, any suggestions?" he asked,

"Nope" I said.

And then there was silence.

After what felt like half an hour I couldn't anymore, I had to say something.

"Do you think they are gonna make it?" I asked, just like that.

"Truth?" Damon asked,

"Yes" I said,

He sighed, "Some of them" he said,

"Do you think they are going to kill him? Do you think they can?" I asked,

"I hope they can Elena, and I hope they will come back, so you don't rot down here" he said,

"Would you like to kill him?" I asked,

"Yes I would, I would love it" Damon said, probably picturing that go by.

"Do you think Stefan will make it?" I asked, I already knew Damon didn't like him mentioned,

He huffed,

"Come on Damon, one of us had to bring him up eventually" I said,

"No Elena, I don't" he said,

I sank, I didn't know if Damon just wanted to be cruel to me, or if he actually thought that he wouldn't.

And as if he had read my mind he answered my unspoken question,

"Elena, Stefan I not as old as me, he is weaker because of all the years of drinking animal blood, his senses is not as strong and he is not as strong as he could be, so no, I don't think he will make it, truth be told" he said.

I knew Damon was right, and I knew that it was an option.

"I brought you something" I said, wanting to change the subject,

I pulled a bottle up from my backpack and handed it to him.

He grinned and smiled.

"I thought you might would need a drink to power up, but as you stayed here, just to be able to handle being stuck in here with me" I smiled.

"Thanks, and this is a great scotch" he said smiling at me.

"I thought that you could drink from the bottle" I smiled at him.

"Sure" he said, reading something on it,

"Thanks Elena, this is great" he said smiling at me, I melted inside.

"Sure" I said smiling.

Then there was a loud boom kind of sound

I was completely freaked out and it was written all over my face, I was scared.

Damon was up, "I'll just go and check it out okay, stay here" he said, you could tell that he was on his marks.

"No don't go" I said, I had gotten up meanwhile, I didn't want him to leave.

"Elena, I have to check it out" Damon said serious,

"Oo...Okay, just hurry" I said nervously,

He was gone in a blur and it only made me more nervous.

I got chills and stumbled back against the wall and feel down, holding my knees I sat there waiting.

Suddenly he was back.

"It's okay Elena" he said soothing now beside me,

"It was some rocks that fell apart in the back room, everything is fine" he said, trying to calm me down.

I nodded slowly trying to pull myself together.

"It's okay" he said, sitting down beside me,

Taking me into his arms, wrapping his strong arms around me,

I clung into his shirt against his chest.

He was soothing, warming & securing.

"Thank you" I said.

"For what?" he asked.

"For being here" I said.
