AUTHOR'S NOTES:

And here's part 2 ^_^

Homecoming – Part 2

I stared at Klaus hand before looking at his face. "Go to hell!" and I starting walking away from him.

"I wouldn't do that love," Klaus called. "There are a lot of people I could kill."

I froze at his words before wiping around and glaring at him. "And that's how you're going to get me to dance?" I stated, "By threatening to kill people!"

"It's the most effective way for you lot to understand things," Klaus chuckled.

I just glared at him for a second before turning and stomping off. I wasn't going to dance with him. Not in a million years would I dance with him. I headed back up the stairs where I saw Elena and Matt chatting nearby and walked over to them.

"When's this thing going down," I murmured as quietly as I could. I was so annoyed with Klaus that I wanted this whole thing over and done with.

"Shh," Elena snapped. She glanced around quickly before glaring at me. Something about the way she did it told me something wasn't right about her but I ignored it and snatched the beer bottle out of Matt's hand and took a sip.

"Excuse me that was mine," Matt said.

"Yeah, and technically I'm your date so be a gentleman," I added with a wink before taking a huge swig.

Matt chuckled before walking away to get another beer and left Elena with me. I wanted to ask her about the plan but she would just told me to be quiet again. That's when Klaus stepped in front of the both of us and I frowned at him.

"Where's your dates?" Klaus asked as he glanced between us both.

"Getting us a drink," I snarled and Klaus held out his beer towards me. I just frowned at it, and then took a step backwards.

"Well it seems I have you guys to thank for Mikael's demise." Klaus said to us both.

"He came at me. I didn't have a choice," Elena said nervously.

"Still I am impressed. It's not easy for a human to dagger an original," Klaus said.

"It wasn't the first time," Elena spoke with a snarky attitude.

"Right Elijah," Klaus said with a smile. I swear it was the first actual smile that I've see on his face. He then turned away and I grabbed Elena's arm and nudged for us to leave but all she did was stand there and gaze around nervously; Klaus than turned back to look at us.

"You both seem nervous," Klaus stated as he narrowed his eyes at us in questioning.

"I'm not nervous. I just don't like you," Elena snapped.

"Well I'll just get straight to the point than shall I love, "Klaus said. " People have been after me for a thousand years, and I'm always one step ahead so whatever it is your thinking of trying. "He smiled at us, " Go for it. Give it your best shot. You won't succeed."

I glared at him before grabbed Elena by the elbow and once again she wouldn't budge. I groaned and finally decided to leave her alone. He won't harm her since he needs her. I turned and hurried away before Klaus could stop me. As I entered inside I ran right into Bonnie. We seemed to be doing that a lot lately. I looked up at her face to apologize but she quickly went around me and was hurrying across the room. That told me something was going on so I picked up my dress and raced after her. I came around the corner to an empty room but I could hear groaning coming from the far side; I headed in that direction. I came around the corner just in time to see Bonnie standing in the middle of the room. One hand was up and the other was down. On the far side, Damon was on the ground groaning in pain and Tyler laid there knocked out. Eventually Bonnie put her hand down and Damon stopped groaning.

"What the hell is wrong with you," Damon hissed as he got to his feet, "You're not suppose to witchy mind grain me,"

"You weren't supposed to kill Tyler!" Bonnie hollered.

"Damon!" I groaned and that's when they both looked over at me.

"Amelia, you're not supposed to be here," Damon said

"Well I am so deal with it," I growled and that's when I noticed the stake on the floor. "What is that?"

Damon looked down and picked up the stake on the floor and tucked it away in his jacket. "Nothing," he calmly said.

"Oh my god is that-"

Damon hand shot up to quiet me. He then mouthed "Shh, there everywhere"

"Why do you have it?" Bonnie quietly asks.

"Because I'm the only one who can get inside the house," Damon whispered back but more viciously. "Now both of you get out of here now,"

Bonnie glared at Damon for a second before grabbing my arm and dragging me out of the room. She dragged me all the way to the side of the house.

"We'll go out this way, that way Klaus or no one will see us leave just in case," Bonnie whispered to me and we both slipped out through a side door. The instant we stepped outside, we both were snatched. A hand covered my mouth so I wouldn't scream. I looked up to see a woman I recognized was with Klaus earlier, so I figured this was one of his hybrids. Great I thought to myself just great. The guy holding Bonnie hit her over the head. The lady holding me started dragging me around to the front of the house. At this point I realized the noise from the band and the people had died down so something had happen.

"Oh and you forget, they maybe sired by you but they are still part vampire." I heard a voice say. "And they can be compelled by me." Suddenly the girl holding me stepped into view but being a vampire she held a firm grip on my arm so I couldn't move but I couldn't see who they were talking to even though I had a feeling I knew who it was. Then she suddenly pulled me in front of her. I stumbled slightly but once I got my balance I looked up to see Klaus staring right back at me.

"Come out and face me Niklaus," Mikael challenged him as he took hold of my arm tightly. I groaned in pain and I saw Klaus flinch. "Or she dies."

"Go ahead," Klaus finally spoke but his voice didn't sound as confident as I've heard him talk before. "Kill her."

"No Klaus," I said in a panic voice. "He'll do it."

"If she dies," Mikael said. "This lot will be the last of your abomination."

"I don't need them," Klaus hissed. "I just need to be rid of you."

"Well it end's, Niklaus, " I stood there nervously. I was going to kill Damon if this was actually part of his plan but I don't think it was. "So you can live forever, with no one at your side? Nobody cares about you anymore boy!"

I looked up at Klaus's face I could see the hurt in his eyes from his father's words. Even if his face didn't show it, his eyes did. They clearly showed the hurt embedded in them.

"Who do you have? Other than those whose loyalty you forced." Mikael asked, "No one."

I never took my eyes off of Klaus. By this point I could see his eyes beginning to water as his father kept at him. I wanted to hit myself for this but I was actually feeling bad for him.

"I'm calling your bluff father," Klaus spoke sternly. "Kill her."

"Come outside and face me you little cowards," snarled Mikael, "And I won't have too."

"My whole life you have underestimated me," Klaus stated. "If you kill her you lose your leverage so go ahead. Go on kill her,"

I stood there staring at Klaus with wide eyes. Was he seriously going to let Mikael kill me?

"Come on old man," Klaus voice began to rise. "Kill her!"

I started shaking my head. "No don't please," I mumbled under my breath.

"KILL HER!" Klaus suddenly shouted.

Mikael just stood there laughing at his son. "Your impulse Niklaus," Mikael said as he shook his head at him.

I watched the lonely tear fall from Klaus's one eye. Just one simple tear fell and I could see the pain for once on Klaus. This made me realize why Klaus was sort of the way he was. He was tormented by his father as a kid.

"It has and will forever be the one thing that keeps you from truly being great," Mikael finished and then that's when I felt it. Mikael had taken that moment to stab me. My mouth opened wide with surprise, and I gasped. The pain embedded my body like lightning. I could feel Mikael pull the weapon out and let me drop to the ground. The world around me began to blur but I could hear the noise from all around. Than out of nowhere, Klaus was leaning over me.

"Hang on Mia," he whispered as he bit into his wrist and pushed it against my mouth. I could feel the warm blood seeping into my mouth. Klaus cradled me in his arms, stroking my hair as he held his wrist to my mouth. Before long everything vanished but for once in my life. I knew I was safe, even if It was in Klaus's arms.

I began to stir, my eyes blinked open and I found myself staring at Damon. He was standing by the fire place with a glass of whisky in his hand. I studied him and I could see the pain and frustration on his face so I sensed the plan didn't work.

"Damon," I whispered as I sat up on the couch and he turned around quickly. I watched all the different emotion cross his face when he laid eyes on me. I could see the confusion, then the worry and then the pain. We were like that, just staring at each other for about five minutes before Damon hurried across the room to me. He kneeled down so we were eye level and he began to stroke my hair.

"Mia," he whispered before leaning forward and kissing my forehead. "I'm so sorry,"

I frowned in confusion, "What for?" I asked.

"For hurting you, for everything I've ever done to you but most of all for not keeping you safe today," Damon whispered. "I even brought in Katherine, hoping if Mikael wanted to use one of you he would have used Elena."

"So I was right when I felt Elena was acting strange," I mumbled mostly to myself before reaching out and taking Damon's hand in mine. "Don't,"

"No Mia, I'm sorry." Damon said as he squeezed my hand. "I'm sorry "

I squeezed his hand back too and smiled at him softly. We stared at each other for awhile but the soft look on Damon's face went away and then he pulled away and stood up.

"I had him Amelia," he mumbled as he turned to stare at the fireplace. "I had Klaus! This could have all been over!" and suddenly Damon threw his glass into the fire place.

"Hey!" I sternly said and was up on my feet and to his side in an instant."Damon hey," I reached out to touch his arm to sooth him but he pulled away but I wasn't giving up. "Hey! Listen to me," I snapped and grabbed him so he turned around. I cupped his face and made him look me in the face. " We'll survive this. We always survive!"

Damon stared at my face before looking down and slight shaking his head. I frowned at him as I held his face carefully in my hands.

"Trust me?" I whispered.

Damon looking back at me. We stood there just staring at each other before Damon actually spoke. The words that came out I never expected them. "I love you, you know that don't you?"

"Damon," I whispered and let go of his face and tried to step back but he caught my hands in his and pulled me right back. He placed them on his chest as he gazed back at me with a look I never thought I'd see.

"I know you don't believe me but you have to know I do," Damon whispered, and he let go of my right hand and cupped my face. "I love you so much Amelia and I'll do anything to earn your trust again. Even if I have to die to prove it to you I will," Damon whispered.

I went to open my mouth to respond but was saved by Damon's phone ringing. He rolled his eyes and let go of me so he could retrieve his phone.

"Not interested in a play by play of are failure, Katherine," Damon snarled once he answered the phone.

I took this moment to turn and walk out of the room. I figured I'd wait for Damon in the car to take me back to Elena's. As I came around the corner Elena was standing by the door. I frowned because I didn't realize she was here.

"Where's Damon?" she asked as she looked a little nervous.

"Oh he's on the phone with Katherine," I responded.

Elena nodded and crossed her arms and shifted on her feet. She let out a sign and turned and looked at me. "Do you love him?" she bluntly asked.

My eyes got wide," Wait what?"

"Do you love Damon?" she asked again.

I opened my mouth to say something but shut my mouth once again. And I watched Elena study me.

"That tells me you do," She whispered and with that she turned and walked out to the car. I frowned at her retreating form. I wasn't really sure what that was about but I shrugged it off and followed behind her.

So that's the end of this episode! What do you think? Well next chapter you might not like Damon so much O_o
