"It feels weird" Bonnie says one week later. "Everything's so calm, Klaus hasn't made a move in days"

Damon ignores the witch that earsed his girlfriends meomry of him and drank his beer. "Are you still mad at her?" Elena asked.

Damon rolled his eyes. All their heads snapped up hearing the familiar giggle of Ana, she was walking to the table across from them with some friends. "Opps" She giggled falling to the floor.

"Ana you're so wasted" Kelly laughs fixing her blonde hair and helping Ana up.

"Not am" Ana slurred. She hiccuped. "Maybe a little" She whispered putting her two fingers close together.

She gripped onto her pounding head of curls stumbling behind the group before tripping again, in front of Damon. "Sorry" She giggled. She tried standing up Damon resisted the smile he wanted to put on. "You look familiar" Ana slurred.

"You must have me mistaken for someoneelse" Damon lies.

Ana shakes her head."Ow" She squeaked holding onto her pounding head. "Nope, I know you...from somewhere" She says. "Your name it starts with a D"

Everyone at the table was quite looking at the two. "Dave? Nope that's not it. Don? You don't look like a Don. You look badass" She says, drunkenly. "So you must have a badass name"

Her eyes widen. "Oppsy I said a swear" She says, giggling.

"Ana" A boy laughed grabbing Ana's body. "Get up, we have to get you home"

"Derek?" Ana asked looking at Damon. "That's not it ether"

"I'm sorry for my friends behavior. She's a little crazy when she's drunk" The boy apologized grabbing Ana. "Let's go, say bye"

"Byeeeee" Ana waved. "Damon"

Everyone stared at Bonni. "She can't remember. That's impossible!"

"We're talking about the girl who can't be compelled, and when she died came back to life" Stephan says. "I'm pretty sure it's possible."

...

Ana sat by her window looking at the crow who sat on a branch in front of her. "Crows creep me out, but this one...I feel safe around" Ana says.

"Whatever" Kelly laughed cuddling onto the bed. "You were so drunk last night"

Ana groaned. "I can feel it" She replied.

Ana stood up opening the window the bird didn't move. "What are you doing?" Kelly asked.

"Trying something" Ana says before jumping out. Before she landed a pair of arms caught her, she opened her eyes, meeting a pair of blue ones. "Damon" she whispered his name.

Damon dropped Ana. "Why are you here?" She asked.

"I could ask you the same question"

"I live here" Ana answered. "Who are you? Why do I remember seeing you around?"

"Why did you jump out a window they are for air, not jumping" Damon snapped.

"Why aren't you answering me?"

"Because I can't!" Damon snapped.

Ana glared up at Damon. She opened her mouth to speak but before she could get a word out a very red tear faced Kelly and Ana's angry mother stood at the door. "Angelina Mary Angel Ryan! You jumped out the window?" Her mother hissed.

"I jumped because I knew you would come" Ana says. Ignoring her mother and looking into the light blue pool of Damon's eyes.

"Angelina you may be seventeen but by the time I get to three you better be in this house!" Her mother yells.

"I want to know why" Ana hissed looking up. "Please"

"You wouldn't believe me" Damon says.

"ONE!" Her mother starts.

"Try me"

"I can't!"

"TWO!"

"Why?"

Damon sighed. "I promised you that's why" He says.

"Angelina do not make me say three!"

Ana looked at Damon. "I'll just keep jumping out that window"

"I'll just keep catching you, like a game of popcorn" Damon smirks.

Ana looked away from him. "I have to go" She says, walking back into her house. When she turned back around Damon was gone, like her dreams.

...

It was quite as Ana walked home the next night. She hummed along to her music, every now again dancing. She smiled running into the Mystic Park, hopping over the white fence. She was never a rule breaker, but she ignored the sign and jumped on a swing.

"Alone at a park at night?" A British accent says, making Ana stumble as she stood on the swing.

She looked up seeing the man. "Klaus" She giggled. "Don't scare me"

"Or what? You'll jump out a window?" He asked teasingly walking towards Ana.

"You heard?" She asked, the blood rushing to her cheeks.

Klaus chuckled. "Don't pull something like that again or I'll kill you" He says, compelling her.

Klaus was proud of himself when he figured out how to compel the human. "You'll forget the last two minutes and the next five minutes. Got it love?" He asked.

Ana nodded helplessly, as Klaus kissed down her neck, looking for a vein. He moved Ana's sleeve and bra strap around sinking his fang into her shoulder. Ana stayed quite like she was told, looking straight ahead. "Thank you" Klaus smirked wiping away the blood.

...

Ana gripped onto her books tightly as she walked home the next night. A hand touched her shoulder, she screamed , she screamed in pain, and she screamed for help. Damon stood in front, he put a finger to his lips. Ana stopped screaming, but still shook with fear running up and down her body. "Are you okay?" He asked.

Ana ripped her arm away from his hand. "You scared me" She whispered.

"Sorry" Damon chuckled. "This is the only time I could see you, everyone says not too"

"Ana? Are you okay? I heard screaming" A neighbor asked, poking her head out. She looked at Damon and back at Ana.

"I'm fine Miss. Bay" Ana smiled, assuring the old lady. "Thank you for asking"

"Any time sweet heart" She says before locking her door Ana looked back up at Damon.

"Are you going to answer my questions?" Ana asked, her eyes flickering back and forth as she studied Damon's face, hoping to restore memories.

FLASH BACK

"You ready?" Bonni asked looking at Ana.

"Promise me you won't come after me" Ana said looking at Damon.

"Cross my heart"

Damon leaned against the doorway. Ana wiped away a tear and looked up at Damon, her eyes apologizing. "I love you" Damon whispered kissing her one last time.

For the last time Ana ran her hand through his hair. They stopped, she stood on her toes, their foreheads resting against each other. Her hands on his face, tears streamed down her face."I love you too" Ana whispered.

She let go of Damon and turned to Bonni. "I'm ready"

Damon sat in the back of the room. It was quite, Bonni mumbled some words. Everything stopped, the room was quite and the room lite up. Ana blinked a couple of times and giggled. "Oh god, where am I?" She asked. "Is it prank day? Did you and Jimmy drug me?"

Bonni gave a small smile. "That's one way to put it" She answered.

Damon sat stile in the back watching Ana. "Well let's go! I have so much energy"

"Ana wait!" Bonni cried chasing Ana out of the room. "Ana!" She called.

FLASHBACK OVER

"What's that on your shoulder?" Damon asked moving her sleeve, looking at the fang marks.

Ana looked down at it and shrugged. "I don't know, I came home from the park yesterday and I had it" She answered. "Now please answer my questions?"

Damon let go of Ana's shoulder and completely removed her sleeve, walking behind her, up and down her olive skinned back was the same mark. "Damon, what are you doing?" She asked trying to turn around.

"Who did this?" He asked.

"I don't know"

"If you answer my question I'll answer one of yours" Damon says.

Ana looked down. "Fine answer mine first"

"I can't tell you how you know me because you made me promise" He admits. Damon shoved his hands in his pocket and looked at his former girlfriend.

"My neighbor" Ana says. She looks around and brings her lips close to Damon's ear. "He thinks...he can make me forget" She whispered.

"Ana, you need to tell me what's going on" Damon says.

"Funny, I could say the same thing" Ana snapped.

Damon kept his eyes locked on Ana, something Ana always hated, being starred at. She sighed aggravated and opened her mouth to speak. "Sometimes, when he thinks I can forget, he tells me things, like my blood in particular helps him make these hybrids stronger. What ever that means" Ana finally added. "I'm scared"

"Keep walking home" Damon demanded. "I'll follow close behind"

Ana nodded, tightened her grip around her books and started her walk again. A couple of minutes later if she listened closely she could hear Damon walking behind her, on the other side of the street. "Need a ride?" A blond boy smirked from his car.

"No thank you, Jimmy" Ana answered.

"It's about to rain" He added, rolling down his window more.

Ana rolled her eyes. "I don't live that far"

"Come on Ana" Jimmy smirked.

"No thank you" She hissed.

"I think it's cute when you're mad"

"Great for you" Ana mumbled walking faster. Jimmy shrugged rolling up his window and stopped, just as the rain started to fall. He gave Ana a get in look, she turned and saw Damon still close behind.

Damon listened closely to Ana and Jimmy's conversation. "Bye Jimmy" Ana said, ignoring the car. She finally was two houses down from her own five minutes later and ran to her steps.

"Don't do that" Ana snapped bringing her hand to her chest, as a wet Damon appeared in front of her.

He couldn't help but smirk. "Stay safe okay?" He winked.

Before he could run off Ana put her hand on his arm, stopping him. She looked down blushing. "I don't want to be alone" She whispered. "Can you stay please?"
