Previously: He escorted her home and left her with a kiss on the hand in the door way. As he made his way down the hall she fought tears and held her hand to her mouth, "Please don't hurt Damon." It was mostly a wish and then she turned to enter her hotel when she heard a cool voice call down the hall, "Done."

.

I do not feel like writing out all of 2x20&21 The Last Day and The Sun Also Rises. I am pretty much keeping everything the same. Why make you guys suffer through long boring common knowledge? So here is a recap.
Damon saves Caroline and Tyler. (NOTE*Matt isn't really in my story, so I am leaving him out.)
Elena and Stefan get back from their hike and then Klaus comes to take her away.
Stefan calls Damon to tell him that she is gone, Tyler starts to change, and Damon goes to find Klaus to tell him there is no point because he freed his wolf and vampire.
Caroline gets safe until Tyler changes back. Klaus informs Damon that he had 2 backups.
Damon thinks he will be the replacement vampire but then he wakes up and Katherine says he was as good as dead, due to his bite.
And that she had to call Jenna or he would know she was on vervain (yes Jenna is still involved. Sorry)

Damon calls Stefan to tell him about Jenna and then at the old abandoned house Bonnie traps Alaric, and Jeremy in so they are safe.
John does his little spell. And then the 3 head off to try and make a trade with Klaus. I think that is about it.
See wasn't that easier than 4,000 words or more of a reminder?

So now we pick up right after Stefan finds out about Jenna. We pick up with Erin on the phone with John.

I hope you all are still into my story and I haven't lost you forever. And I am sorry if my writing isn't as good as it used to be. I have been out of practice.
And I have a lot on my plate. Would Love to hear from you all so don't hesitate to drop me a line.

Warning: Smut.

"Jenna? You mean…" she said praying she was wrong.

"Stefan is going to try and take her place. It's not going to be pretty but there isn't much other choice."

Erin scoffed, "Please. Don't pretend to mourn. You are ecstatic because now you get one of the Vampire's out of your daughters lives." She was furious and heading for the door.

John had already cast the spell and didn't want to leave things this way. "Erin, you are my daughter too, and I love you. Always remember that."

"John? What's wrong?" she said sensing the despair.

"I am not going to let Elena turn into a Vampire. When Klaus dies, I will be taking her death unto myself and she will survive human." He said regretfully.

Erin immediately regretted what she had just said to him. "But then you'd be dead."

"I know"

"But you can't…Dad…"she felt tears whelping in her eyes as she started her car. Then she realized…Elena was not going to die tonight. So therefore John wouldn't either.

"I have to do this Erin. I would have done the same for you. He said calmly, matter-of-factly." He paused and took in her silence. "Well I need to get back to the business at hand. Hope to see you one last time. But if not, I love my little miracle." Then the line went dead.

He was not going to die. She wouldn't allow it. And she was going to do as much as she could to stop Jenna from dying too. Within minutes she found the spot in the woods where flames illuminated the sky so she knew just where to go. She trudged up the hill and then looked down on 3 rings of fire. On the left-Jenna, Right-Elena, and behind-the werewolf who she couldn't recognize.

Then she spotted Klaus walking up to the girls and stopped next to his witch. "Klaus, You Bastard!" She yelled in the most venomous voice she had ever uttered. She ran down the hill at Vampire speed and stood directly in front of him. "How could you?" she growled.

"How could I what?" he reached out a hand to touch her face and she bit him. "Bloody He-!" he shouted. "What was that for?"

Shit, now I have his blood in my system and he can feed on me. I'm dead. "How could you, Jenna? We had a deal."

He straightened up. "I do not believe you two have ever 'met'" he emphasized.

She looked at him bewildered, he was right. She finally acknowledged Elena who was staring in horror at how her face had changed, not even realizing the severity of the fact that she was yelling at Klaus. Erin wasn't human. She never suspected that. How did I miss that? Wait! She's…Klaus? How do they? Ohhmygahd. I knew we couldn't trust her.

She looked him dead in the eye, "Fine, if that is how you wanna play this, so be it."

She knew Elena was freaked by the look on her face stating that one more surprise would render her unconscious. Which only made her plan that much harder to execute. She wanted to give Elena some form of reassurance but Klaus had to believe that she would do it.

She ran over through the ring of fire. Klaus yelled, "I thought you said it was shielded? How in bloody hell did she get through it?" He glared at his seemingly incompetent which.

"I did," she muttered flabbergasted.

Erin was now firmly standing behind a shaking and hyperventilating Elena. "Klaus! Forget about that. You should be more concerned with what I am going to do now that I am in here." She said yanking Elena's head to the side and removing the hair from her neck.

Elena whined, "Erin please don't. What are you doing?"

Klaus heard her feeble cries. "You would really do this to your sister? You're just going to kill her because I plan to kill her aunt?"

"My aunt!"

"So you are going to kill your sister?" He said incredulously at the wall of fire.

"Only just before I kill myself. Then you will not get your curse broken, and you will be alone forever." Elena tried to pull away but Erin wrapped a firm ARM around her roughly holding her still.

"I will kill everyone you have ever met Erin." He shot desperately.

"Go ahead. Not like I will be around to mourn them, we will see each other again. You? You will be alone." She had figured out his weakness, she didn't know how or when she had put it together but seeing the look on his face made her incredibly thankfully that she had. She hated putting Elena through such an ordeal but she had to save Jenna too or her leaving with him would be for nothing. "Tick tock Klaus." She said baring fang.

"You're bluffing" he growled. She sank her teeth into her sister's vulnerable throat. She remembered the masseuse in the hotel suite.

Elena. Elena, can you hear me?

Erin? Please stop. Why are you doing this to me? When did you change sides?

Elena I need to convince him I am serious. I am still on your side. I am trying to save Jenna's life. I already saved yours.

But?

No time, stay scared keep fighting me or he will suspect something. I'm not even drinking your blood. I just bit you and started flow.

"Alright!" He yelled defeated. "Stop. What do I have to do?"

She pulled back from Elena smearing her mouth in blood. "Find another vampire to sacrifice. Someone who's death will not affect anyone in mystic falls. Like a bum who is going to die of hypothermia anyway. Jenna goes free."

"There's no way I could find a replacement in time. And how do I know you will still come with me after?" He said looking up at her through his brows.

She bared fang again. "You will find a way if you don't want her to die. And I unlike you, keep my word. But you have to pull through on your side."

He shook his head at her non believing.

"In that case." She bit Elena again and she let out a scream.

"Alright! I'll do it. I hear your boy toy coming. You might want to run off or I'm afraid your little birthday party shall be ruined." He smirked.

"No, your witch is going to shield me, make me invisible to them. I am not leaving her. And if he finds out there will be no reason for me live anyway. Now I suggest you hurry up."

Klaus nodded to his witch and then ran to find his hobo.

After Erin was invisible Elena had to be sure she was still there. "Erin?"

"I'm here. I'm sorry Elena. I had to. How do you feel?"

"I'm fine, it doesn't even hurt it's just like paper cuts or something." She was serious too; Erin's teeth had just slid into her like butter, unlike vampires who tore at her flesh. Elena couldn't see who she was talking to but she continued talking anyway. "Why are you going with him? How does he even know about you...what are you?" She finally said. Jenna was in the other ring listening very intently.

Erin couldn't keep it from her any longer so she went ahead and answered her questions. "Katherine injected me with her blood throughout our development in our mother's womb." She spoke mechanically, "she turned me into a Hybrid. Klaus is a Hybrid; she was going to bargain me for her freedom. Before she got the chance I bargained for your life. Everyone's. He spares you all and I become his." She paused, "Forever."

Jenna looked at Elena wondering how any of this could be true. Elena stood gasping. "Why would you do that for me? You hate me?"

Erin let a genuine laugh escape her lips, "I don't hate you enough to let you die." Elena heard Erin plop down in the grass.

"What about Damon? How can you just leave him?" That was when Erin really turned her emotions off.

"It has to be done." Before Elena could say anything Klaus was back. New Vampire in hand.

He flung the raggedy man forward, "Okay Erin, are you satisfied?"

"Let Jenna go. Now." She said forcefully.

Klaus was about to reply when he suddenly looked up, "I don't recall inviting you to the party." Up on the top of the hill was Stefan. Klaus was standing in front of the other vampire in one swift motion.

Erin took this opportunity to say a few last things the girls in the circle. Tie up any loose ends. "Jenna, Elena, listen to me." The girls couldn't see her but they located her voice. Erin rose from the ground. "You both are going to survive tonight, more or less," she said looking at Jenna. "You will see me again. No one can know I was here tonight. Please don't tell anyone. I only get 2 more days of freedom and then I am his. Don't ruin them for me." Elena's face looked like she was going to argue so Erin ran over and placed her hands on her shoulders. "Elena, please. I need you to promise me."

Elena fought back tears. "But it's not fair. We can, Damon, we can save you. We can fix this. You have to let us try…"

"No." Erin cut her off. She fought tears herself. "Elena, promise me. I have accepted my fate. There is nothing you can do. Promise me." Elena shook her head. "Promise me!"

"But Erin!"

"Elena! Please!" she growled hoarsely.

Elena closed her eyes, "alright. Okay…I pro.." she couldn't finish the word, but she still meant it.

Erin closed her sister in a hug. "Damon is around the tree with Bonnie and Elijah, I have to leave. They might smell me. Keep my secret." Elena nodded and then Erin was gone.

But Erin didn't really leave, she just ran into the edge of the wood and kept an eye on everything to make sure Klaus help up his end of the bargain. While Erin stood there silently she realized she was still invisible and wondered when the which was going to remove the spell. She looked out at where her hands should be and willed to see them again…at first nothing happened but then eventually after a couple of minutes of freaking out she came into vision. Maybe the witch took it off of her. She realized now that she was visible she had to shield herself with a tree.

Right about the time she was hidden behind a couple of bushes she saw Damon come around the corner. He was trying to hide as well, but If Erin knew he was there, Klaus knew too. If you do anything to anyone Klaus I will make you regret it.

The next 10 minutes were a blur. Klaus pretended to consider a trade, killed the werewolf, snapped Stefan's neck, snapped Jenna's neck and then staked the replacement vampire in the heart. That was when Erin realized that Klaus had thought farther ahead than she had. He couldn't be just like, "Ohh I had a change of heart." She mentally thanked him for slightly making it less obvious that there was some outside meddling.

Then Stefan and Jenna woke up weak, and Klaus had Elena in his grasp. He glanced back at Erin in the woods and she willed him to keep his word. Klaus bit Elena and drank for about 20 seconds. That was all and Elena fell to the ground weakened. Then Klaus stepped forward as the transformation started. Bonnie came out between a couple of trees chanting.

Then out of nowhere Elijah pounced on Klaus, Elena had forgotten about this. Maybe she wouldn't have to go away after all, maybe Klaus would die, right here, right now. Then Elijah shoved his hand into Klaus' chest. Erin couldn't breathe, all he had to do was remove his hand and she was free.

It was only wishful thinking though as she watched the two speed away together. That was when she finally let herself look at Damon, really look at Damon. Klaus had followed through on his end, and he was still alive. There was no way out of her deal now. She was his. Damon was picking Elena up off the ground and the movement woke her up. Erin gave a short prayer that her sister wouldn't blab. But Elena just looked up into Damon's face and started crying. Erin wasn't sure if it was because she thought she had died, just over whelmed, or if it had to do with Damon and her.

Elena felt everything go black and then after what seemed like a lifetime she awoke in the arms of Damon. Which immediately triggered a string of incoherent thoughts-Damon? We're alive-Erin-she saved-Klaus-ohhGod-Damon-I can't tell you- I just can't! She loves us so much! And it went on and on from there. She wrapped her arms around Damon and realize she was trying to comfort him from pain he didn't even know was to come which made her cry even harder. It just wasn't fair. Damon was finally happy and it was all about to be ripped out from underneath him. She had treated Erin so terribly only to find out that Erin was going to save them all along. It just wasn't fair and there was nothing she could do about it but keep her sisters secret.

Damon held Elena's shaking figure bewildered as to why she was still alive…was she a vampire? No. Has Johns spell worked? No. Her wound was still there so no supernatural fluid had saved her…what had happened? Stefan and Jenna were alive and some hobo was dead on the ground a few feet away. What in god's name happened? Damon thought.

He took Elena over to Stefan and they started Hugging and now she was crying for a whole new reason, she was happy to be alive, and to have Stefan alive. Then she heard Jenna approach from behind and she looked up at her and they exchanged a look of did that just really happen and they both nodded and entangled themselves together. They couldn't say anything but they knew what the other was thinking. They had been saved by none other than an Angel, and her name was Erin.

Damon made sure they were all okay and then sent them on their way to the abandoned house while he went off to the hotel. He knew he had the bite. He remembered what had happened to Rose when she had it. He had to spend as much time with Erin as he could.

.

Erin was pacing back and forth in her suite waiting for anyone to come through the door. She was supposed to stay there all day and she hadn't in the slightest. She needed to see Damon. She needed to know that Elena hadn't blabbed. She realized she was still wearing the same outfit as before but it was dirty, muddy. She had to hide the evidence so she stripped right there and threw them in the fireplace. That was the only thing she could think of. Then just as fast she ran and jumped in the shower to rinse away any further evidence.

Damon was standing in the hallway outside of the suite looking down at his wound. He had just got off the phone with his brother and he told him about the bite. Stefan wanted Damon to bring Erin over to the boarding house so they could all revel in the fact that they survived. Damon wanted Erin to himself so he declined. After persistent arguing Damon came out and admitted to Stefan that Tyler bit him. Stefan promised to find a cure and Damon also made him promise to keep it from everyone. He didn't want to ruin the little bit of time he had left with anyone.

He snuck into the hotel still trying to figure out how he was going to cover his injury so she wouldn't ask any questions. He was pleased to hear her in the shower singing a song he had never heard before, but it was lovely none the less. He quickly located her makeup bag and took out something that read concealer and smeared it all over the inside of his Elbow it started to cover it up but he could see the difference between it and his skin so he dug for something else. He found base and applied that. It was better and blended but it was shiny. Why do women have to so damn complicated he found a powder and dabbed at it and it was practically invisible. Pleased with his work he headed to the restroom.

When he reached the door he froze, if he got in the shower he risked washing the cover up away. He just stumbled back and sat on the edge of the bed waiting, he lounged back closing his eyes listening to Erin sing in the shower.

"See I thought love was black and white

That it was wrong or it was right

But you ain't leaving without a fight

And I think I am just as torn inside"

Damon was puzzled by her choice of song but let it go as he slipped off into sleep.

Erin finished up her shower and climbed out wrapping a towel around herself she saw Damon laying back on the bed with his arm draped across his forehead. She wasn't sure if he was awake so she got dressed knowing that if he were he would hear the shower being shut off.

She put on one of his shirts because it was all that was clean in the suite. She had not done laundry since she had moved in. Damon apparently really was asleep because he had not stirred at all. She turned the light off and made her way over to the bed and stretched one leg over his waist and rested herself right on top of him deciding that if he made any indication that he woke up she would stay where she was, but if he continued to sleep she would roll off and sleep as well.

She only had a little over 48 hours left and she really needed to be connected with him, in every way possible. Going against what she had just decided she leaned forward on his sleeping figure and crossed her arms across his chest resting her chin on her hands. All he had to do was remove his arm and he would see her.

She felt him move beneath her and she smiled knowing he was waking up so she grinded her core on top of him just a little bit. He lifted his arm up halfway revealing an eye and grinned at her smiling face. "Well there you are, he lives." She teased.

He leaned up as much as he could and cupped her face in his hands, "I should tell you what happened tonight."

She already knew and didn't want to waste any precious time, she held a finger to his lips. "It can wait." She replaced her finger with her lips holding his face now, gripping it actually. She never wanted to let go.

He could sense her urgency and wrapped his arms around her feeling the same way. Their bodies were molding, becoming one. Erin drove her tongue into his mouth claiming all dominance as she shifted up and down on him creating friction. She needed him inside of her, but she needed this to last forever so she planned to draw this out.

He wasn't fighting for control because he was getting weaker by the second. He pushed his hands down her back grabbing her full rump and squeezing as she nipped at his neck. He groaned. And she moaned. He pushed her shirt up her back feeling every smooth and soft surface he could claim, he never wanted this to end and he didn't want to miss any detail.

She sat up and slowly and unbuttoned the front of her shirt revealing that she had no bra on. Damon groaned again and pushed himself up resting his face between her exposed breasts and licked and kissed at the skin between and then pushing the shirt off her shoulders desperate to see every inch of her he located her nipples and gave them light attention and blew his hot breath on them setting them on fire.

The sensation sent her spiraling, "Ohh, Damon." She breathed arching backwards and then pulling herself forward pulling his head to the side and biting him. She wanted to get her part out of the way so that he could bite her whenever he wanted to. She needed him inside of her too, and that feeling wasn't restricted to his erect body parts.

Damon groaned and ran his fingers through her hair, he loved the feeling of nurturing her almost. Even though his blood didn't sustain her, only made her stronger. They rocked back and forth while she drank and he grew harder the more she sucked and moaned against his neck.

While she sucked, she pulled his shirt up his back and then released him pulling it off. She ran her hands all over his abdomen, she felt him tremble. "Damon?" She grabbed his face and looked into it alarmed. "What's wrong?"

He leaned forward to kiss her again, "Nothing, its nothing." She pulled back, now she realized something wasn't right. Everything felt wrong.

"No. Don't lie to me. What is the matter?" she held his chin in place so he couldn't look away from her.

Damon refused to tell her. "Erin please." He wanted her to let go and forget it but he knew it was a pipe dream. He rested his hands on her thighs. "I just saw how easy it would be to lose you tonight."

"What?" she said incredulously.

"Seeing everyone I knew so close to danger and death. I realized how easily you could have been there too and then I couldn't even bring myself to think about losing you." He was telling her the truth. Just omitting a certain injury.

"But Damon, you didn't. I'm right here." She lifted his hand and held it to her heart. "I am not dead. Let's not live in the past, or the future. Let's just be here. In the now. Where we are both together. Alive. And Healthy…please Damon." She started working on his button on his pants. "Make love to me."

He couldn't resist her doe eye any longer and lifted her up with her legs wrapped around him and laid her down gently on the bed underneath him. She let out a sigh as he did so, and then he gracefully kissed and licked his way down her neck, her breasts, her belly button, and then her nether region.

She curled her toes in anticipation. She knew where this was going. He wrapped his arms underneath her legs holding them in place and lacing his fingers together cross her plump stomach. He went to work on her gently running his tongue between her folds waking up her little bundle of nerves to full attention. The more she started to writhe under his grasp the faster and harder he worked. After a few minutes she was reaching her climax and she reached down grabbing his hands and squeezing drawing blood.

With this Damon shoved a single finger inside of her and bit her hip bone. She let out a cry and her toes curled. This was what she needed. Thousands of moments like this where she was 100% vulnerable and they were this connected with her blood flowing with his and his blood flowing with hers. That would make the rest of her life worth living.

Damon quickly found that drinking her blood strengthened him. His wound wasn't affecting him as much anymore and he felt strong again. He wondered for a second if she had healed him but he didn't count on it. He was probably just high off of her power. After her tense body relaxed he pulled himself back up and began kissing at her neck again.

She tugged at his hair and fought to regain her steady breathing but it was not happening. Damon lined himself up at her entrance and slid himself between her folds across her clit. She flinched at the unexpected contact and let out a small lust filled chuckle. "Wait, don't you want me to return the favor?" She asked.

"No need. I just want you Erin. Always and Forever. Just like this." Erin smiled reflexively. And he slid into her gently reveling in how tight she was. And how they were connected. When they were like this he felt like nothing could hurt them. No one could ruin this moment.

Erin felt herself begin to cry because that was the single most heartbreaking thing he had ever said to her. Everything he wanted? He couldn't have. Not for more than 48 hours, she looked over at the clock, make that 46. She couldn't stop the tears which alerted Damon.

He smoothed her hair, "Erin, shhh…" He stopped all movement, was he hurting her? "What's wrong? Am I hurting you?" He started to pull out.

"No. No!" she gasped "you just…I love you so much." Was all she could say. He kissed her tears away as the fell and she found herself laughing, "I hate you."

"That's more like it he smiled and picked up his movement again right where he had left off. They fell into a rhythm quickly and their sounds fell together in a beautiful chorus of passion and love. She dragged her nails across his back, and he grazed her breasts with his fangs. They were borderline rough, but at the same time everything was so gentle.

Erin lightly pushed on one shoulder with hooded eyes and he took the signal flipping over onto his back holding onto her never leaving her. She stretched backwards and rested her hands on his thighs giving him a show. She wanted him to remember every inch of her when she was gone. Wanted him to remember that she loved him, loved him deeply and there was nothing he did wrong to make her leave.

He held her hips moaning feeling himself get closer. She was bordering on the brink when he grabbed her and pulled her forward claiming her mouth and lifting up her hips and pounding into her slowly. She moaned into his mouth and he sped up feeling both of their impending release. They were no longer kissing. They were just connected at the lips exchanging air and moans into one another's mouths. Then simultaneously they both hit their release and he exploded into her and her around him. They saw fireworks in each other's eyes and Erin couldn't hold herself up any longer.

She dropped her head to his chest breathing heavily along with him. "I love you Damon. Forever and Always." Then they both drifted off into sleep.

So do we like? Reviews would be lovely. Or even just a short Hello. I miss you all very much and feel terrible for leaving this story hanging for so long.

Much Love
