Chapter 36: Mmkay people, I used a English to Latin thingy online so I apologize if it's off a bit.

I heard the shuffle of feet along the wooden floors as I sat up in bed and swung my legs over. Damon would meet me downstairs and we would get started with Elena. This was our chance, and we only had the one.

"Please Elena.." I could hear Damon as I rounded the corner into the large living room.

"Oh god! I try to get my stuff and I get cornered? I'm leaving alright? Just let me go." She crossed her arms and glared at us. "I told you Damon, we are over."

"Elena." I said, stepping closer. "Don't look at Damon, look at me."

She raised a brow as she turned my way, "Why? We talked and I told you that I don't care what you say any more Peat. We aren't family."

"You're right Elena. The person in front of me isn't family." I wiped my sweaty palms on my night shorts.

"Ugh! Honestly I don't care!" She yelled. Her eyes shifted as I raised one hand towards her.

"Are you ready Peatrie?" Damon asked, whooshing behind Elena in case she ran off. I nodded to him.

"Am I supposed to be afraid of you Sis?" She asked me, her eyes trailing to my hand.

"You will be.. And when you are I will use that fear to make sure that you feel every single little thing you have done in the last few months. Do you understand me Elena?" I dropped the concern and grew cold as I spoke the words. This wasn't my sister.

She laughed as she shook her head, "You are not going to hurt me. You can't."

"You don't think so?" I asked her.

"No. And even if you do manage to get my emotions back I'll still remember all of this." She was threatening me? Really!

"Good. I hope you remember all of it. And while you are at it you can remember how I saved you from yourself!" I gripped the air around me as she lifted off the floor about a foot and gripped her neck.

"What are you doing?" She wheezed, trying to speak properly as I held on to her as tightly as I could. "Put me down Peat!"

"This is it Elena. I hope you know that I tried being nice."

'Muto, quod factum est

Retrahe, quod est ablatum

Sire ruptis vinculis. Retrahe, quod ademit.'

I muttered the first words that came to mind, testing out what I had been reading in Bonnie's grimoire's. I was lucky that we were friends and she wanted to help me. "STOP IT!" She cried out this time her hands moved from her neck to her head and she was placed on the floor. Her knees touched down and she leaned towards it in what I assumed was agony. "PLEASE. Please please stop."

'Muto, quod factum est

Retrahe, quod est ablatum

Sire ruptis vinculis. Retrahe, quod ademit.'

Images of myself falling onto the cavern floor passed across my vision but I kept on speaking the words, over and over. My hands touched the concrete, then my head. Then there was nothing. Nothing. No Elena, no Jeremy. No one was there and I was dead.

"Please.. Please.. STOP!" Her yelling only broke through as the memories shifted. Kol was trying to get in our house and Jeremy let him in. As the stake sunk into his flesh and the life inside of him floated away I couldn't help but fall to my sisters level.

"Peatrie! You're killing her. STOP!" I could see my surroundings again but I held on as they both yelled at me. "God Dammit Peat you have to stop!" Damon yelled again but this time he came at me.

With one swift shift of my left hand I threw him into the fireplace.

'Muto, quod factum est

Retrahe, quod est ablatum

Sire ruptis vinculis. Retrahe, quod ademit!'

"You need to remember what we lost! Remember Jeremy! Remember his stupid giant head and his goofy smile! Remember how he followed us around until we yelled at him!"

I yelled the last verse as Elena screamed, clutching her sides as she began to sob buckets. "Please Peatrie, I can't do this." She cried, tears soaking our carpet. "It's all my fault. Please make it stop.."

I dropped my hands and stumbled forwards as I reached out to her.. "No." I coughed as I tried to calm myself. "No you have to feel it." I told her, still on my hands and knees. "You have to feel what you did. You have to forgive yourself."

"It's my fault. He's dead and it's my fault! I wasn't there for him. Why? Why couldn't I have protected him? And you.. You were dead and it was my fault!" I wrapped my arms around my crying sister and I held her.

"I wasn't there either. I was so mad at you.. I wasn't there either Elena.." I cooed, touching her hair softly. "He's gone and we are still here. We have to forgive ourselves. We need to."

"Oh god Peatrie what have I done?" You killed a bunch of people and ruined our family's house... "I am so sorry!"


Two days later:

"Hey." I muttered, handing my sister a cup of chamomile tea, her favourite.

"Peat." She said under her breath. The last few days she had been like that, keeping her mouth shut and wearing her sad face. "You keep bringing me things." She said, stating the obvious. "Why are you doing that?"

"Because dip shit, I want you to get better so we can kill Silas." I half smiled at her. I was trying my best to get over all the things she had done to me and I thought I was doing a pretty great job of it to be honest. After we cried like little children on each other I figured we should get on with being sisters. What more could we do? I could leave but I wasn't dumb. I needed her more then she needed me.

"You what? I thought he was off torturing your boyfriend." She asked my confused as she sipped from the glass.

"What?" I hadn't heard anything about that? But I hadn't heard from Klaus since the night I came home, his sister either. I felt to awful to call her. She was my best friend in the whole world and I had shunned her. "What are you talking about?"

"Well... Bonnie said she got a call from Rebekah. She asked Bonnie to come help Klaus because Silas had attacked him and jammed a dagger into his back. She said he couldn't get it out." She watched me from beneath the cup, waiting for my reaction.

"How long ago was this?" He had been in my apartment days ago and said nothing about hurting Klaus.

"I dunno Peatrie.. Maybe two weeks ago?" She sighed loudly, "I haven't exactly been on speaking terms with you. But you saved me and I know now that all the things I did to you were wrong. I owe you and I decided that even though I hate Klaus Mikaelson.. That I would tell you." She shrugged easily as she sipped from the tea again, "I just want you to forgive me."

"Okay." I said, sitting next to her. "Look.. I know what happened between us was shitty but I am not going anywhere for a little while and I think that you should know some things.." I had to tell her how it was now.

"Shoot."

"Well.. I may or may not have almost slept with Logan..." I trailed off.

"You what? That's good, isn't it? He cares about you." Her eyes grew excited.

"No.. I mean yes but also no. He does care about me... To much actually. But I should not have lead him to believe that I felt the same way. That was the night I attacked Kol... I was a little under the influence. He took advantage of me Lena."

"That pig fucker!" She snapped, "Did you hurt his ass?"

"What? No! Klaus showed up before I could do anything about it." I looked away in shame. I hurt him and I hadn't thought one second about it since that night.

"Really? I bet he was super pissed! Did he hurt Logan?" She actually looked hopeful.

"He tried to I guess. He was so hurt Elena, I had no idea until that night that he was really... Into me." I couldn't mumble Love. I had been away for to long and I hadn't thought about since then. I couldn't, but I had to tell Elena.

"You said he loved you before that... You had to have known what he would do." She mumbled, "Damon would kill people... Revenge and what not."

"Yes well.. Klaus knows me I guess. He didn't burn that bridge. Anyways.. I went over there to speak with his sister and he was there... One thing lead to another.." I cleared my throat awkwardly. "I slept with him."

"You slept with Klaus?" She asked, just making sure. I nodded, "You gave up your first time to Klaus?"

"Yes.. Dammit Elena!"

"Okay okay.. Geez. I just can't understand it... You really do care about him don't you?"

"Yes!"

"So.. Why aren't you two together then?"

"You killed his brother!" I stammered, slamming my hand down on the arm of my chair, "Look... I forgive you but I am going to be upset about it."

"I am sorry Peat... I really am. If I could go back and find another way.. I would."

"That's all I needed to hear. I just need to stay away from that family for a while." Hint hint, don't talk about them anymore. "I need to focus on Silas for a while."
