I'd just like to say that sadly this is the last chapter. I've gotten bored with it I guess. So sorry readers. But I will be working on more and better ones soon.

Chapter 10

Take Control

Elena slowly opened her eyes and stretched her sore arms and legs she winced slightly feeling much more sore then she thought she was. She glanced around the empty bedroom realizing Damon was not in sight. She winced as she slowly got out of the bed and looked around. When she realized she was alone she quickly ran to the bathroom and locked the door and when she saw her appearance she gasped.

Her hair looked horrible and the bite mark on her neck must have started bleeding again because dried blood had ran down her neck and shoulder, There were also bruises on her hips and legs and waist. Elena looked at her face and saw tears ran down her cheeks rather quickly, she had to do what she did last night so she could make him think she wants him. "I'm going to get away. I'll get back to Stefan." Elena repeated in her mind as she turned on the shower and took a deep breath and unlocked the door and opened it.

She had to make Damon think she gave into him and was his only. Until she could get away. When she got back to Stefan she would tell him how sorry she was but she had to do it. She just wishes he can forgive her. She just wanted to feel his arms around her again. To feel his gentle kisses on her neck and cheeks.

She didn't know how long she had till Damon came back but she had to get out. Elena quickly got dressed putting on a shirt that covered the bite on her neck. She quickly slide her shoes on as she brushed her hair roughly then she unlocked the door and opened and hurried out of the door and closed it locking it so he didn't know she left.

Elena smirked slightly as she rushed down the hall and jumped in the elevator, she left a little note on the kitchen table. She shivered thinking of his face when he saw she left. It slightly scared her but then again not that much. She just wanted to go home to Stefan. As soon as the elevator doors opened she almost ran out the Hotel doors and then walked into a small shop and looked for some hats to cover her face just in case.

Elena reached in her back pocket and smiled thankful that she had left money from a shopping trip from awhile ago in her pocket. She quickly picked up the first cheap large garden hat she saw and black glasses. Elena grabbed a jacket too. She couldn't look like herself in the same clothes she usually wore. She paid for the items and took the tags off and put them on as she left the store.

And just as she left the store out of the corner of her eye she saw Damon entering the hotel and Walked the opposite way, her eyes wide under the glasses. As soon as she rounded the corner she called for a taxi and was glad that one stopped quickly, she got in and asked the driver to drive her to a coffee shop or something far away from here.

And just as the taxi drove by the hotel entrance, she saw Damon burst through them with an angry and confused expression as he looked around. She held her hand to her ear on the other side of her face and acted like she was talking to someone until they passed him. Elena glanced back and saw Damon walk into the store beside the hotel and she bite her lower lip.

Later the cab guy let her out and she through him some money. "Keep the change!" She said and jumped out of the taxi. Then she ran over to a pay phone she saw and dialed the familiar number after she inserted a $1:25. The little voice annoying her more than usual. It rang once then she herd Stefan's voice and she almost shouted in happiness. "Stefan! Its me, Elena. Oh god I missed you. I'm so scared!"

Elena said in a rush almost starting to cry, she herd a short pause and then Stefan's rambling questions and soothing and more questions. "Elena! Elena where are you? Are you okay! Did he hurt you? I miss you so much!" Stefan said worriedly. " I can't explain, he might find me! I got away but He's probably looking for me. He took me to New York. Stefan I'm so scared! I don't have enough money to get a plane ticket back home."

Elena said almost weeping as she looked around making sure Damon wasn't anywhere in sight. "Elena shhhh its going to be ok. Just listen to me. I will be there within a few hours. I want you to stay away from the air port, that's the first place he'll look. I want you to go to stay at a friend of mines place. I'll tell her to pick you up. Where are you?" Stefan said softly trying to calm her down.

"I'm at a coffee shop." Elena said and told him the name and the street, as she glanced at the street sign. "Okay, Stay there out of sight until she gets there. Her name is Lexi. I've known her for a LONG time, she helped me with the whole vampire thing." Stefan said and then they herd the annoying voice say 'Please insert a $1:25 to continue.' Elena sighed deeply. " I have to go, I love you Stefan!" She almost herd Stefan's tight smile in reply. "I love you too Elena. See you soon." Elena hung up the phone and quickly walked back into the coffee shop and sat at the table that was deserted.

Suddenly she looked up when she saw a women sit down across from her at the table. "Hello Elena." The women said in a velvet yet torturing voice. "Hi….." She replied hesitating.

"I'm, Isabel… I'm sure you don't know me. But I know a lot about you." The woman said in a matter-a-fact tone Looking her up and down. "You were Katherine's twin weren't you?" Isobel said and smirked slightly seeing Elena's eyes widen. "Who are you?" Elena demanded as her heart jumped in his chest.

"I'm your mother. It's a pleasure to meet you, I haven't seen you in 17 years, but you were a baby so I never got to introduce myself." Isobel said tilting her head slightly watching for a reaction. Elena Arched her eyebrow but didn't do anything but that until she spoke. " You're a…"

"Yes, I am." Isobel cut it before Elena finished her sentence. "I saw you run from the hotel… Then Damon…. I figured something happened. But now I'm sure of it, I smell the blood." Elena's eyes widened at Isobel's statement, then she glanced at the door as the small bell rung. A blonde women entered the door and glanced around and when she saw Elena she glanced at her company and quickly made her way over.

"Elena right?" The long haired blonde said with a small smile. "Lexi?" Elena replied nodding slightly at her question. "Yes, we have to go. Now." Lexi said and glanced at Isobel warningly before Elena and her left the Coffee shop and headed towards her car quickly. Elena only now realized how dark it was outside. "You feeling alright there Elena?" She whispered glancing at her in slight worry as she smelt the blood.

"Yeah, He didn't drink that much.." Elena replied and got in the passenger seat of the SUV locking the door and putting her seat belt on. She tapped her fingers in a quick rhythm as Lexi got in and started the car then drove away just as Damon walked into the coffee shop. Elena looked at Lexi quickly and she shrugged. "He won't get to you, trust me. I'm hundreds of years older. I'll keep you safe till Stefan gets here."

Elena sighed in happiness as minutes later they were in the less bright part of New York and were pulling into a long drive that had many curves. When they came to a large white house Lexi lead her inside and shut the door behind her and called for the maid that lived there. Elena watched as she was compelled to only let Stefan in and to not open the door for anyone else.

Lexi smiled at Elena slightly once the maid went away. "Just in case." She explained quickly and then went to the kitchen with Elena to were the maid mixed up some vervain tea for Elena. She leaned on the counter sipping the tea slowly as Lexi told stories of her and Stefan in the old days. Then suddenly after hours of story telling and laughs and drinks. It was late, So Lexi showed Elena to her room right next to hers with boarded windows. "Sorry about the windows, its just that the sun thing…"

"Its alright, I understand. Don't worry about it, I'm actually happier about that." Elena said quickly and changed into one of Lexi's night shirts and slid into the guest bed leaving the light on as she started to drift to sleep…

About 4 to 5 hours later Elena was awoken with a start as she felt the bed shift under someone's weight. She glanced up to see Stefan moving her body smoothly not to disturb her rest as he joined her in lose fitting but low waist night pants. Elena closed her eyes with a relived and happy sigh as he moved her close to his chest and rubbed her back softly. "I'm here now." He whispered softly hearing her sigh. "Don't Leave me." Elena whispered back before falling back into a blissful sleep.

When Elena opened her eyes she saw Stefan gazing down at her in anger and even more than that Hunger. "He hurt you." Stefan stated gently kissing the bite mark that was placed on her neck. Elena winced slightly and nodded. "Did he do this too?" He asked rubbing her legs and hips with weather hands as he felt the swelling. Elena nodded again tears rolling down her cheeks. "Oh Elena… I'm so sorry.." He whispered and kissed her tears away quickly. "I..I…I ha….had to make hi…him think….ink I wanted it! He…w…was"

"Shhhhhhh, its alright. It's ok. Elena calm down, I'm here. I'm here." Stefan said quickly cutting her off and holding her battered body in her arms tightly enough for her to feel safe without hurting. After almost and hour of rocking Elena in his arms, her tears had stopped shedding and her pulse calmed as well as her hysterical babbling subsided. Stefan picked her up and carried her into the bathroom and ever so softly sat her on the counter. "I'm going to start a bath for you ok love?" Stefan said stroking her hair from her face.

Elena nodded and leaned back against the wall softly so she good relax slightly more. After the tube had filled, she felt Stefan's embrace and she opened her eyes not realizing she closed them, she met Stefan's smile in return to her rubbing her eyes tiredly. "I should stay in her just in case you doze off in your bath." Stefan said softly as he closed the bathroom door to remove Lexi's shirt from Elena. "Mmmm take the bath with me." Elena said finding a solution to the problem.

Stefan chuckled and nodded hearing Elena's cute half asleep voice, she held up her arms slightly and he easily pulled the shirt off of her and put it on the counter. Stefan wrapped his arms around her waist squeezing his eyes shut as he saw bruises all over her body. "Oh Elena…." he whispered painfully. "I'm so sorry." Elena sighed and after a couple minutes Stefan pulled back and softly removed the rest of her clothing and in seconds they were soaking in the warm water. Elena sighed thankful for Stefan's ability to be so quick.

After about and hour of holding each other and the warm water undoing the knots in Elena's muscles, Stefan convinced her to get out and eat.

Stefan got out and pulled Elena out gently and she glanced over his body quickly and blushed seeing him catch her. Stefan smirked slightly in a naughty way and as he wrapped a towel around her frame, he brushed her skin purposely and kissed her lips and neck.

Elena giggled and pushed him back and walked out of the bathroom teasingly looking over her shoulder at Stefan. Then she started to dress in the clothes that lay out for her on the bed. As Stefan pulled on his pants again and joined her as they walked to the kitchen and made breakfast.

5 hours later

Stefan and Elena sat in her room and played the game never have I ever but instead of shots they played with fingers. Stefan had 5 fingers left and Elena had 7. "Hmmmmm" Elena hummed thinking of what to say. "Never have I ever…..wore gel in my hair!" Elena said and smirked as Stefan groaned and lowered a finger. "At this rate I'll be the winner in no time!" Elena said cheerfully and Stefan playfully rolled his eyes.

"Never have I ever…grinded against a guy during a song." Stefan said tilting his head at Elena. She pouted and dropped one of her hands leaving the other holding all five fingers in the air. "Karma sucks doesn't it?" Stefan teased, Elena playfully growled and tackled him down from his sitting position down onto the bed and giggled. "You should know. OH! you just got served!" Stefan laughed and she joined in, then in a quick movement Stefan flipped over so he was leaning over her and kissed her softly.

When he pulled back he saw Elena wincing slightly, he then lifted his wrist and bite into it and held it to Elena's lips. "Drink, you'll feel better." Stefan whispered and groaned softly as she slowly started to drink from his wrist. As she did she felt his blood almost melt through her body and a tingling feeling settled over her body. Stefan pulled his wrist back and kissed Elena's lips urgently and the smiled as he licked his blood from their lips and settled back on the bed and looked at her hungrily.

"What?" Elena said looking away from his stare.

"I want you." Stefan whispered and in seconds he locked the doors and pulled the shades over the windows and then straddled Elena's waist as he kissed her urgently once again. "Stefan!" Elena said quickly pulling back "We can't…"

"Shhhh, yes we can. Jenna went to the store and Jeremy is at the grill. Don't worry. I'll take care of you." He said and after she agreed he kissed her again but passionately. In about 15 minutes they were naked and rolling on the bed for a chance to be on top. Elena pinned Stefan's arms down with a smirk and quickly lowered herself onto his stiffness and they moaned in unison and Stefan growled and flipped over taking dominance and started to thrust into her fragile figure starting gentle and moving more reluctantly.

Then after only minutes Elena cried out and her toes curled in pleasure, as she did Stefan sunk his fangs into his wrist then her neck and as he reached his climax the shared souls until they couldn't share anymore without her turning. Elena fell asleep in Stefan's arms after he licked the blood from her neck and she his wrist.

The End, needed a twist for an ending but I'm still Delena!
