That next day Elena focused on everything else, trying to push those dreadful words; When you remember, I'll be waiting.Elena shuddered, right now she was driving so she needed to focus on that, or she would be lying dead in a ditch somewhere. So, she turned up the radio and sighed in anger when the lyrics felt familar to her life, Elena recongnized the song automatically identifying it was 'Undisclosed Desires.' by Muse. She turned the radio back off and just drove in silence. When she finally got home, she sighed and was about to head upstairs when a red paper caught her eye, it was lying face down on the counter, with roses in a vase. Elena smiled and smelled the roses, then she opened the note, and her smile vanished when she saw the signature.

Elena,

Roses are red, violets are blue, I would run if I were you.

-Stefan.

As soon as Elena dropped the note to the ground in fear, she heard a loud bang from upstairs. Elena didn't know what to do. Be the stupid girl in the movies that go towards the noise? Or be the smart girl and take a weapon while she goes towards the exit? Elena juggled her choices and finally decided to be the stupid girl that would probably get her head torn off. She slowly made her way up the steps, jumping backwards when the step creaked. She made it up, but was frozen, when she saw blood coming from her room. She clutched the knife, almost drawing blood, and she was holding the handle. Then she put her small hand on the doorknob, and she slowly twisted it. Then she opened it, and found nothing out of the ordinary, except for the trail of blood that was leading to the bathroom, she walked in there, and jumped back when she saw something written in the mirror, in blood.

Made you look!

Those words made Elena's blood run cold, and her heart start to race. What the hell? Is this some sort of trick? The questions ran thruh her mind, leaving her confused. Then as she began to explore around the bathroom, she leaned down and opened the cabients to reveal a voodoo doll that had a pin stuck in her heart, and there was little note beside it.

Elena,

This is going to be you, soon. Enjoy your time with Damon, because I promise you that I will kill you. You have a week, exactly.

-Stefan & Katherine.

Elena felt like her head was going to explode. Stefan and Katherine were working together? This was a valuable piece of information that Damon should know. Elena ran downstairs and dug thruh her purse, trying to find her blackberry. Then she remembered that it fell out of her hand when she read the note. She went into the kitchen, only to feel a hand around her mouth, Elena struggled to get them off, but thier strength was impossible to fight.

''Elena, Elena! It's me.'' Damon said, Elena turned around to face him.

''Why did you grab me?'' Elena asked, trying to catch her breath.

''Why are you so scared?'' Damon asked, a bit annoyed.

''Well, excuse me while I recover from a heart attack!'' Elena said, sarcastically, as she put her hands on her clammy forehead.

''Look, I'm sorry. I freaked you out, but I heard you gasping and I saw you running, and I didn't know what happened.'' Damon admitted.

''You were spying on me?'' Elena asked.

''Aren't you glad I did?'' Damon said, with a smirk.

''A little bit. Thank you, my savior.'' Elena said, a hint of sarcasm running thruh her voice.

''Salvatore means savior,'' Damon said.

''So, why were you running?'' Damon asked. Elena bent down to show him the note. Elena looked up to see anger written all over his face.

''That's not even the worst part.'' Elena said, grabbing his hand and pulling him upstairs. Elena pointed towards the blood, at the bottom of her door, then she turned the knob, and showed him the inside of the bathroom, and the voodoo doll and the other note.

''Are Stefan and Katherine working together?'' Elena asked, rereading the note over and over again.

''They have to be,'' Damon mumbled. A look of sadness passed over his face, but quickly vanished.

''Do you think we can defeat them both?'' Elena asked.

''I can, you on the other hand...cannot.'' Damon said.

''Where am I going to stay tonight?'' Elena asked, more of herself than Damon.

''Can't you stay with the witch?'' Damon asked.

''Nope, her dad took her to Tampa for a week.'' Elena replied.

''How about blondie?'' Damon asked, with a smirk.

''Caroline...is dealing with Matt and Tyler right now...and possibly for the rest of the night.'' Elena said simply.

''And let me guess Jenna is at Ric's? And Jeremy is with a friend?'' Damon asked.

''Yep,'' Elena replied, popping the 'p'.

''You can stay with me.'' Damon suggested, doing that eye thing Elena had grown to love.

''Fine, but no funny buisness.'' Elena demanded.

''I swear on my undead brother's grave.'' Damon joked. Elena sighed in frustration. Damon took Elena's hands in his. ''I promise,'' He said sweetly.
