Chapter Ten- The Path


I was in the living room. It had been hours since I told Damon that Katherine was at my house. He didn't say anything and I felt as if Damon was going to throw everything around and toss the sheets. But he didn't. He was calm and drinking now. Later on tonight, him, Bonnie, and I were going to my house to see if Katherine was really there. I hoped my mother was alright.

"Elena!" I stood up and turned my attention towards the person who spoke. It was Damon. He was shirtless and his pants were unzipped and not buckled. I averted my eyes. He was instantly making me all hot and sweaty. And I hated that he could tell. He could smell it.

"I thought you were asleep, your heart beat was steady but now it's racing. I love that." He was in front of my face in seconds. I jumped and watched as he looked at me with a sinful expression on my face. I ran my hands up and down my arms.

"You're a vampire. Of course you would."

He chuckled. It was dark and deep.

"No I only like it when you do it."

I had nothing to say to that. I wasn't sure what to say to that. I mean, how was I going to reply to that. Some sexy banter. Me lift up my leg.

I shivered as a warm feeling went down my spine. I closed my eyes, feeling something inside of me build up. I opened my eyes and saw that Damon was studying me. He was lost in wondering what the hell I was thinking.

Suddenly, it happened so fast that I couldn't even stop it. I pulled his face to me and kissed him on his lips, slipping my tongue inside of his mouth. Damon responded instantly, pulling me towards him. I gasped in his mouth and ran my hands up and down his face to his neck. I was loving how he was feeling up against me. His hardness up against my thigh. His hands were on my ass and he was palming them in his hands.

"I can't..." I mumbled around his lips as he raised one of my legs to rest on his hip. I didn't want to lose my virginity this way.

"Yes...feel it." He responded. His voice was deeper than normal. I flinched in his arms as he slammed us against the wall. "Love it."

Yes I would love it...he was mine...

I shook my head and pulled back from Damon's lips. I couldn't do this. Katherine didn't want me to led them on till I made the right choice and just so happens that was already attracted to Damon Salvatore. But mean it was because I was a part of Katherine's soul.

"Delicious. I wonder how long till they actually fuck." Damon pulled back from me and looked at Lea, Bonnie, and Bree. They were standing in the doorway. All of their arms were crossed except for Bree's she was playing with her hair. Not really caring. "Damon, I'm physic not stupid." Lea scoffed and rolled her eyes turning to Bree. They whispered something that I couldn't hear and than Bree turned back to us. She was smiling.

"Bonnie is going with you. You take good care of her, you here."

"Yes ma'm." Damon said sarcastically as Bonnie stepped forward and started playing with the ends of her robes. "Oh, where is Elena's clothes? She can't go back wearing this." Damon gestured towards the robes that I was wearing. They were nearly ripped and torn in places from when he grabbed me.

"I will summon them." Bonnie said. She looked up and closed her eyes, her lips began to move and she tighten her lids as she chanted.

I stepped off the wall and felt something warm come over me. I let the warm breeze take over as Bonnie chanted and chanted. I felt warm all over when she finished.

I looked down and noticed that I was wearing a red shirt and tight blue jeans, converse shoes that were pink.

Bonnie opened her eyes and shook her head. "I'm sorry. It normally doesn't come out like that. I can fix it."

"Don't even really about it. Just let's go. I have matters to attend too. If Mason figured it out. He'll be over there. Let me go put on a shirt and some shoes. Bye Lea, Bree."

"Bye!" They screamed at him as he walked past them. They smiled at me and held their hands as they began to fade. I watched them disappear and only Bonnie and I were alone in the room.

I turned to her and ran my hands through my hair, feeling odd about her and her sisters walking in on me and Damon. I played with my tongue ring in my mouth.

"So, you'll be with us...why?"

Bonnie scratched her chin and tossed her hair over her shoulder. Seemed like a nervous habit.

"Just in case if she's there."

I wasn't sure who this she was but I had a feeling that she was Lucy. I still couldn't get her off my mind.

;..;

We were standing outside my house; me, Bonnie, and Damon. He was holding onto my arm and Bonnie was standing in front of us chanting. She was making sure that no one else was in the house, except my mother. I really hoped that my mother was alright.

Bonnie stopped chanting and turned around to face us.

Her face looked grim. Something was wrong.

"We have visitors."

Damon gripped me tighter and pulled me behind him. During the process, his face was changing and he was looking at the front door with black eyes and razor sharp teeth.

"Bonnie, get behind me. Show you're self."

Bonnie walked behind Damon and grabbed my arm. Damon had already let go and his arms were out wide by his sides. He was in fighting stance and I felt myself grow wet at the thought. Just the thought of him ripping someone's head off. I shivered.

It was long silence before we heard anything.

It was movement inside and shadows behind the windows. I tensed up, wanting to run forward and see if my mother was alive and okay. Well alive and okay as a vampire could be.

I heard the door click, though and I held myself back. It opened and Damon backed up. We backed up as well. Bonnie was mumbling and I couldn't hear her.

I bit my lip and watched as two people came out of my house.

One was my mother. She was sober. I could tell. Her long black hair was down her back and she was smirking, a wine glass in her hand that was filled to the brim with something red. I knew it wasn't wine.

The second person that came out was being held up my mother. Her head was down and her dress was black and ripped. Torn even. She had curly hair and her arm was sagging down herside.

"Mother?" I asked. Damon straighten himself back up and looked away.

"Damon." I heard my mother speak. Did she know Damon too? "Trying to avoid me. I see. I bet you weren't expecting this." The woman that my mother was holding up, turned up her head and looked me dead in my eyes. It was HER! I couldn't believe it was her.

She looked old and gray and her skin was wrinkled. Her eyes were shrunken in and all I saw was black eyes. Her skin looked like just by my mother holding her up she would break.

Her lips turned up into a smile and she flashed her pointy sharp fangs at Damon, not me. Damon.

"Damon. I see you're well."

Damon looked at the woman in mother's arms and I tensed up. My whole entire tensed up.

"Katherine I see you're well too."
