Elena sighed and nodded. She followed Stefan back upstairs. Stefan may not stake Jenna but if she didn't feed soon she was as good as dead and that was the one thing Elena was trying to avoid.

"Hey, let's get out of the house for a bit. You could use the fresh air." Stefan offered.

"I don't want to leave Jenna." Elena sighed.

"She'll be fine. Rick is with her."

"So is Damon."

"He won't hurt her. I promise."

Elena sighed. "Stefan I can't."

"It's just for the day I promise."

"Stefan…"

"Just to warn you if you say no I will be forced to pick you up and throw you over my shoulder." He teased playfully.

A small smile appeared on her lips. "You're not taking no for an answer are you?"

"Nope." He smirked.

"Ok, but just for a few hours I need to keep an eye on Jenna."

Stefan held up his right hand "Vampires Honor."

Elena giggled shaking her head. They locked hands and left the house.


Finally they made it back to their waterfall.

"Every time we come here this place looks more and more beautiful." Elena said.

"I'm glad. You ready to climb to the top?"

"No, do your vampire jumpy thing please?" she whined.

He chuckled. "Nope, not this time."

She whined and pouted pulling her best puppy dog face. "Pwease Stefan my wegs are wvery tired."

Stefan groaned. "Elena you kill me with that look don't you know that?"

"Pwease Stefan, pwitty pwease."

"All right, all right just put the lip away."

Elena smiled. Stefan pulled her into his arms. "Hold on tight." He leaped and landed safely at the top of the waterfall.

He pulled them both down to the ground making her squeal.

"Better my Princess?"

"Yes, very much, thank you."

"Good, now I can do this."

Stefan started to tickle her sides. Elena burst into giggles grabbing his hands trying to fight him away...even though she knew it was useless.

"Stefan, stop it!" she giggled.

"Nope, I don't think I will. You need to be punished for using that puppy dog face against me to get your way." He teased.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry please stop it Stefan. Please!"

"You've got to say 'Stefan Salvatore is the hottest, fastest, sexiest, handsomest, nicest, most amazing, none human killing, vampire, boyfriend in the whole entire word and I love him more than anything else in the whole world.' Then I'll let you go."

"Stef…AHHHH NO!" Elena screamed as Stefan reached up to tickle his underarms. She knew she'd never be able to say the words now. She was laughing too hard.

"Stef-Stefan stop!" she choked out.

"Say the magic words."

"I can't….I can't Stef-Stefan sto-stop please!" Elena begged laughing and gasping for air.

Smiling Stefan stopped and let her catch her breath. When she finally got her breathing under control he said "Say it or I'm going to start tickling you again."

"Stefan Salvatore is the hottest, fastest, sexiest, handsomest, nicest, most amazing, none human killing, vampire, boyfriend in the whole entire word and I love him more than anything else in the whole world" Elena repeated

"Thank you." He smiled.

She giggled. "You're welcome. Thank you for bringing me here. It's so peaceful."

"I thought you could use a break from everything going on. Jenna's been a little hard to deal with lately and I know your struggling with it."

"Stefan ,Jenna is the most stubborn person I know. If she wants my blood she will not give up until she gets it, even if it kills her? What am I going to do if she decides to die?"

"I'm not going to let that happen."

"How can you stop it?"

Stefan sighed. "I don't know, we could always force animal blood in her but that would be worse for you to witness. Damon, Caroline, and I would have to hold her down then someone would have to come in and force the blood down her throat, almost as if your were force feeding a human only worse because a vampire is stronger and will fight harder. I don't want you or Jeremy to have to see that."

Elena sighed. "Is it wrong for me to want to keep her alive when she clearly doesn't want to be?"

"It's not wrong, you love your Aunt and you don't want to lose her but maybe….please don't kill me for saying this but….maybe just maybe Jenna is suffering more than we know and her dying is what she wants to happen to end this."

Elena looked down at her hands. "if I love her like I say I do maybe….maybe the best way to help her is to…to let her go."

Stefan rubbed her back and kissed her head. "Let's not think about this right now. I took you out here to relax so just forget about it for now. When we get home we can worry about it For now….you need a little distraction."

Stefan leaned down and pressed a kiss to Elena's lips. She smiled and kissed back. They quickly started to make out enjoying their stress free afternoon.


When the sun started to set they headed back to the house. Just as they walked in the door they crashed into Jenna. She had blood covering her mouth.

"I'm sorry Elena, you left me with no other choice. I had to do it."

"Do what?" Elena asked.

Jenna vampire sped away. Elena looked at Stefan. Stefan took her hand and they rushed down to the cell.

"NO! JEREMY!" Elena screamed. She rushed to his side. Stefan instantly bit into his wrist and put it to Jeremy's mouth. Nothing was happening. "Please take the blood Jer, please drink the blood." Elena cried.

"Come on buddy drink the blood please." Stefan begged.

"How did this even happen?" Elena cried.

"I have no idea." Stefan sighed.

Suddenly Stefan felt Jeremy's lips wrap around his wrist. "Good boy, just keep drinking you're going to be all right."

Elena watched as the scar on his neck began to heal. Jeremy suddenly shot up with a gasp.

"It's ok, you're ok." Elena soothed.

"Jenna! Where is Jenna!" he asked.

"She ran out just as we were walking in." Stefan answered.

"What happen Jer?" Elena asked.

"It's my fault. This is all my fault." Jeremy cried.

"No, Jer, this isn't your fault just…just tell us what happen."

Sighing Jeremy told them what happen


Flashback (written by TwilightElena)

An hour before with Jeremy, Jeremy was minding his own business when all of a sudden he heard a female voice calling his name.

'Jeremy'

He stopped and looked around; of course he didn't see anything.

'Come to me Jeremy'

Jeremy shivered a little bit and tried to ignore the voice.

'Stop ignoring me. Come to me now.' The voice commanded.

It was then Jeremy knew that the voice wasn't just a random voice. It was Jenna. Jenna was calling him to go to her and he couldn't resist it anymore. He felt his body moving towards the boarding house. The front door was locked but he opened a window and soon was inside.

He looked around and didn't see Damon or Stefan so he continued.

'Come to me Jeremy…' the voice continued.

Jeremy felt himself moving down the stairs to the cellar where Jenna was kept.

'Jeremy….'

Jeremy walked up to the door and saw Jenna lying on the ground. She didn't look good at all. "Why am I here?"

"I called you here."

"Why?"

"I need your help. "

"I can't let you out."

"Yes you can. You're gonna open the door."

"No. I can't let you out." He felt his strength fading as his arms moved towards the door by themselves.

"Open the door Jeremy."

Jeremy shook his head but the voices continued. 'Open the door'

Jeremy's arm shook as he tried to fight himself from doing what he knew he shouldn't but it wasn't any good. Within seconds he had his fingers wrapped around the lock and he was opening the door.

Jenna super sped to the door and grabbed him roughly before biting into his neck. "Finally…" she moaned as she sucked his blood into her mouth. She knew she should stop but she couldn't. He tasted amazing. She heard his heartbeat fading and he wasn't struggling anymore. She couldn't let him die so she dropped him and ran from the cellar.

She ran up the stairs and out of the main hall. She made it to the front door when she ran right into Elena.

End Flashback (rest written by me)


"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry." Jeremy cried.

"It's not your fault Jeremy. Damon did the same thing to Caroline when he was trapped in here. It's like being compelled. You have no idea what's going on or why you're doing it and no matter how hard you try and fight it you can stop it. It's not your fault. I'm just sorry Jenna hurt you." Stefan said.

"What happens now?" Elena asked.

"Now we need to find Jenna, it may be dark now but the sun will rise at some point."

Elena gasped. "She doesn't have a day light ring yet! She'll burn to death!"

She saw a flash of Isobel's death and turned deathly white.

"We've got t find her!" Jeremy said.

"We will find her, you two stay here with Ric, Caroline, Damon, Bonnie and I will go looking for her."

"No, the more people we have looking the better!" Elena said.

"It's dark out there and I can go a lot faster if I don't have to worry about you getting hurt." Stefan said.

"Stefan she's my Aunt I'm not going to just sit her it's my fault she's like this in the first place!"

"Elena we will find her if you and Jeremy just stay here all right. Trust me."

Elena sighed and nodded. It was safer for them to stay here plus Jeremy had vampire blood in his system, that last thing they needed was another new vampire

"Ok, we will stay here."

"Good,"

Stefan kissed her head and vampire sped out of the house.

"Why did you do that, we can help!" Jeremy said.

"No, Jer, you've got vampire blood in your system now if you die…."

"I'll be a vampire I know but I just wish…."

"I know, but we've got to trust the others. They won't let anything happen to Jenna."

"What if they don't find her by sun rise?"

"Jenna knows it's dangerous, hopefully she'd find shelter somewhere."

Elena knew that was just wishful thinking but it was better than letting her mind wonder to all the what ifs. Like the biggest and worst what if, if they didn't find Jenna soon she'd either burn to death or kill someone and feel so guilty that she kills herself. Either way Jenna wasn't going to survive.
