Chapter 10

Elenas p.o.v

I can see old memories and faces flashing through my mind. Me as a child with my parents. Parties and birthdays. I can see the crash, i remember all the pain and at the same time all the love. Loved ones faces flash up some more than others.

My body aches, and i feel like am burning. Am incredibly hungry. But my teeth and gums hurt. I want to open my eyes, but it feels like my body won't respond to what my brain is telling it. My head is banging.

It's the worst hangover ever.

I can hear voices, but my brain won't work. What did i do last night, where was the alcohol involved.

I struggle hard to make my brain function. Damon, talking did i finally tell him how i felt? Yes bonnie she made me. Stefan's face comes to mind and he's upset, why? Me in Damon's arms, but only because i was happy that they had some white oak wood to destroy Klaus. Oh my god Klaus. I remember clearly now what had happened with Stefan. How happy we were what we overcome. I'd gone to get some cloths because he asked me to stay. And i was planning on staying longer. And then Klaus had appeared at my door asking for a favour. And by this he meant take my blood to turn werewolves into hybrids.

Is that why i felt so drowsy? I tried to open my eyes and sit up. I felt the arm behind my back support me. When i come to open my eyes. It felt like they were burning so bright, i felt blinded,

"argg my eyes!"

Someone flew across the room and shut the blinds, and i could finally open my eyes, but it only made my head hurt more. I looked up into Damon's blue eyes. He looked so concerned, he then turned to the door and shouted," bonnie get up here. Its time!"

I turn to meet the most beautiful green eyes there is in this earth, but Stefan's eyes are grim, sad looking. Lost. Full of quilt. He tears his eyes away and stares at his hands.

"Stefan i...

Just then bonnie comes running through the door, and launches herself at my. Tightly hugging me. My arms automatically go-around her, she looks like she's being crying. I see Caroline walk in, she doesn't come over, her eyes narrowed taking everything in. She too looks concerned. Her eyes Seattle on Stefan. Who's still staring at his hands? My head is resting on bonnies shoulder, nestled in the crock of her neck.

"oh god Elena i should have come with you, then Klaus couldn't..."

I know she's still talking but i can't concentrate on what. I feel so hungry, and bonnie smell so good, i feel myself brush my lips over her bare shoulder, and feel bonnie tense. God am so hungry my gums are on fire!

Just then bonnie is pulled away from me by Damon. I look at him as if to say what the hell?

What did just happen? Bonnie is in Caroline's arms. She looks upset and shocked. Caroline looks at me with sympathy. Damon's got one hand one Stefan as if to comfort him, but he's looking at me with a blank expression. I daren't look at Stefan, something is wrong, i have a feeling it's me.

Stefan is still knelt down on the floor by the bed, his fingers rubbing his temples. He looks tired and stressed. I crawl to the end of the bed, and twirl his hair. His hand comes and covers my hand that am leant on for support.

"Stefan what's wrong? Are you ok? I can't remember what happened i, Klaus came. i..."

His head shot up. He places his hands on my face and looks deep into my eyes. I look back and smile, but then i notice Damon is staring too, looking curious. I thought he'd got on over that? Only when i look at him i don't see the lust and longing i once did. I look back at Stefan, and his body sags, as if defeated.

"Stefan?"

"Elena what do you remember?" asks Damon, he looks so serious, all his forehead is scrunched up. He looks old. This thought makes me laugh out load. And everyone looks at me in surprise.

"Am sorry it's just Damon looks so serious, and all his forehead is scrunched up, making him look old. But then i realize he's is old, he a cripple!" this sends me in to a fit of laughter again. No one else really is laughing. Caroline has a slight smile, she moves past bonnie and comes and sits on the bed next to me. Taking my hand. I can tell she's looking to say the right words.

"Ok Elena, so tell me how do you feel? And what details of Klaus taking you last night do you remember?"

I look around the room i can tell that everyone is waiting for me to answer.

My eyes take them all in, something is wrong my eyes settle on Stefan. He gets up taking me in his arms, telling me he loves me. Holding me close.

"Ok, well i went home to get lots of cloths, because i wanted to stay more than one night with Stefan. If i was 0nly going to stay the night i probably wouldn't have left. Stefan gave me in hour, but i was just getting ready to go, when the doorbell went. There was kluas. He told me he needed a favour. He took me to his car. I asked him if it was my blood he wanted. He said yes. That he was leaving town for a few month, that this should make me happy. It did, because one it would help with Stefan's recovery, and two we would have enough time to come up with a fool proof plan."

I stop to breathe, Stefan squeezes my hand reassuring me.

"Was it just Klaus that was with you Elena?"

I look at Damon, but i don't know the answer to his question. My mind is just blank.

"i can't say"

Damon and Stefan exchange a glance. When Caroline asks, "Why would some else being there make a difference?"

Damon is about to answer but this hunger feeling takes over me. Burning.

"God i am starving!" i almost yell, the room as gone still and silent. Once again Stefan face drops to his hands. Damon comes and crouches in front of me.

"Elena how else do you feel?

"Well all you lot are making me nervous." I say this trying to ease the tension. It doesn't so i continue.

"Am so hungry, it felt like hangover when i woke up. My head hurts. It was too bright and huts my eyes. I can smell something, it smells great, is it that special chicken thing i like Damon?" he shakes his head at me in a no motion. I can feel that Stefan has stiffened up again. I turn to him.

"What's going on Stefan? Has Klaus done something? To someone?"

Stefan's whole body shuddered" you" he sobs. Then gets up and moves to his desk so he's no longer facing any of us. I just stare at him. I don't know what he means, what did i do?

Caroline and bonnie come and sit on either side of me, both putting their arms around me. I lean closer to bonnie, and sit back up straight, she's looking at me not scared, just in a questioning way. i feel Carolinas arms tighten ever so slightly. And i have a almighty erg to push her away.

Am still staring at bonnie when i say." It's you, you smell ...i don't know, good. Is it new perfume? It's good, although it is making me even hungrier."

Damon pulls bonnie up beside him, am starting to feel nervous again, and angry. I push Caroline off standing up, i say "for god's sake what's going on? Why are you all being like this? And can someone explain what happened with Klaus. I don't remember being so drowsy like this last time."

This gets Stefan's attention, he walks back across the room, facing me cupping my face so he has my full attention, i forget about the room, i just want to kiss him. Am leaning in already when he says,

"Elena, you remember yesterday?"

A lot of images flash of the day before events. Most of them happy.

"Well what you did to help me brake through and regain some control, was the most selfless thing ever."

He pauses, closes his eyes and sighs.

"Stefan i would do anything to save you. I wanted you back, i still have you back don't i?"

His eyes flash up in a sudden jerk movement.

"God Elena don't ever doubt how much i love you. You'll always have me. But back to yesterday. You hurt yourself and then you let me feed off you...i gave you my blood to heal you because i felt you'd lost too much. Do you see? We got you from the hospital, Klaus was draining you..."

His words don't make sense to begin with, but then one word becomes clear.

"Draining?"

Damon appears next to Stefan, again appearing to comfort Stefan. Which makes me happy. It's being long time coming.

"Am so confused. Klaus wouldn't drain me, because then he'd run out right?"

"To be honest Elena all we know for certain is that Klaus took you. Yes to take your blood. To create his misfits. But no we don't think Klaus would kill you. In the hospital i compelled a...

"Kill me?" i ask in a tiny voice, cutting Damon off. He stops talking and looks from me to Stefan. I look into Stefan's eyes. I see the raw agony there. And i know the answer before i ask the question.

"i died?" Stefan's teeth cut into his lip, as he tilts his head to the ceiling, the tears threatening to over spill. I look to Damon. He looks upset too. He nods his head slightly. Caroline comes to my side.

"Elena sweetie, do you understand what were saying, what's happening?"

It's too much the tears falling, i give out a muffled sob, and this seems to draw bonnie to my side. Damon scowls at her, and Caroline retreats back to her. I turn to look at her. It's connecting the way i feel. The way there acting. Bonnie she's the human in the room.

"Oh god!"i chock on my words." That's why i thought bonnie smelt so good. I want to eat her!"

All three of us girls are crying bonnie reaches out to me, but she's held by Caroline and am held by Stefan.

"Elena no i know you wouldn't, its ok were here for you no matter what you decide"

And there's the final nail in the coffin. You don't just become a vampire automatically. You have to decide to make the final change you have to complete the transition.

"Vampire? Me? i never wanted that. But i think i knew deep down that it would eventually come to this. This is why Stefan looks so tortured, because we've had this conversation before.

"I'm in transition aren't i?

Damon strokes my arm, but doesn't look at me when he says." Yes Elena, you died with vampire blood in you. You're in transition to be a vampire. You know how this Elena. You have to drink human blood to complete the transition. I have everything ready. If this is what you want. Av put it in a glass so it's...

"no." Bonnie almost shouts. Oh god bonnie hates vampires. She hadn't spoke to Caroline when she first turned she's going to hate me. Caroline gives me a pitying. Yet understanding look. There had being no one there when she turned. She didn't know what had being happening to her. Bonnie seems to have realize that everyone is thinking she doesn't want me to turn. She breaks out of Caroline's grasp and comes to me hugging me. I try not to breathe.

"Elena i didn't that i don't want you to complete the transition. I meant i don't want you to use a blood bag i want you to use me."

Everyone in the room gasps. Then Damon pushes her back again.

"What the hell is going on with you lately witchy? First Stefan now Elena. Get in queue Blondie, because it seems judgy here wants to be the main source of nourishment in this group of vampires!"

"Shut up Damon, put it in a glass or summat! Elena i know now that vampires aren't all the same. I was wrong the way i acted with Caroline. Am only use to dealing with the idiot over there. I don't want to lose you forever, but i will respect whatever you chose. I know you and who you are, you'll always be one the good ones."

"thank you bonnie, i think i need to talk to Stefan alone please."

They all mumble there yeah sure. Be downstairs and filter out the room. Stefan by now looks exhausted. I crouch down in front of him, with my hands on his needs.

"Stefan, i know what i said before. And back then it was true. And if it wasn't being forced upon me now it would still be true. But things have changed, we both aren't who we use to be."

His eyes are still closed and his words come out all jittery. He's trying hard to keep his composure.

"Elena am so sorry, for everything. Everything I've done has led to this moment in some way. If I'd have known i wouldn't have feed you my blood am so sorry. I know this is not what you ever wanted. But don't worry if you go i won't be far behind."

His words confuse me at first and take a minute to register. Wait is he talking about dying?

"Stefan don't even think that. This world needs you no matter what i can't even think of you not existing. But also Stefan if i haven't learnt anything this past months, the one thing i do know is how much i love you. All sides of you. That I'll want you always. That there is no me without you. That i want you forever. That eventually we would have ended up here."

I wait for my words to sink in, and when he looks up at me i see how much he loves me to. That if the situation was reversed, this is what he would choose too. I lean forward and kiss slowly. Letting all meaning sink in.

"Stefan i want you for always. This is how we'll always be together. Am going to complete the transition."
