I let out a sigh as the silence continues, its been a long day. I desire sleep. "Lets talk about this in the morning."

"The Salvatore's will be here soon." Alaric says as he watches me with a frown, his face showing concern. "What really happened? How did you get away?"

"Get away from what?" I ask him innocently, frowning at him and tilting my head to the side.

"Elena, you were kidnapped." Jeremy says with a look of worry on his face. "How can you not remember?"

"Because." I tell him bluntly, tilting my head to watch my 'brother' and 'teacher'. "I wasn't kidnapped."

"Bullshit Elena." Jeremy says angrily as he glares while Alaric beside him stiffens.

Alaric watches my face closely, a deep frown on his face before glancing at Jeremy. "She may have been compelled."

I snort causing them both to look at me again. "I have not. I'm not a dumb little doll that you can boss around." Stating at them seriously I shake my head. "I'm going to bed. Tell the terrible duo to leave me the fuck alone."

With that, ignoring my brother and my Aunts boyfriend- Alaric's protests I march up the stairs in annoyance. When I get into what I assume is my room. I quickly get out of my many clothes (except my pants with the vervain in the pockets) and lay in bed while letting out a sleepy sigh. I just want to sleep.

The issue with that was.. I only go about ten minutes of sleep.

I feel arms wrap around me. "Elena." I hear whispered in my ear causing me to jolt in shock.

"Get off o-mmphmm." I snap out loudly, or at least I try to as a hand covers my mouth as I begin to struggle harder against whomever is holding onto me.

"Damon, let go of her." I hear a voice whisper harshly as the body is shoved off of me.

Quickly I go to move off of the bed, then I accidentally bump into Stefan. His arms shoot up and land on my shoulders heavily, but keeping me at a distance. Thankfully.

"What?" Damon says as innocently as he can manage. "She started screaming."

"Of course I fucking did." I snap quietly as I turn towards the older Salvatore. "You fucking attacked me."

"I was just happy to see you." He says with a wink.

I am unable to control the urge to hide the look of disgust and if the way his expression darkened means anything then he didn't miss it either.

"Shut up Damon." Stefan says angrily as I back away from both of them to stand on the other side of the room.

"Why are you both here?" I ask with a harsh whisper. "Get out. Leave. I am tired." I spent all day working on that damn unbreakable contract so that Elijah can't wiggle his ass out.

"Elena, you were kidnapped." Stefan says with a frown. "We have to make sure that you're okay and then we need to hunt him down. Rose has been helping."

"In more ways then one." Damon says with a suggestive tone causing me to cringe in disgust.

Don't get me wrong, Damon is hot. But he is also a major asshole for like the first two and a half seasons even with the humor he brings. That and he seems to occasionally suffer from an extreme case of 'dumbass' and was incredibly lucky that he didn't get killed permanently.

"Okay." I mutter to myself and shake my head. "So, after you fucked her.. why are you here?"

"Are you jealous? To make sure you stay safe. It seems like they want to use you as a sacrifice for some sun and moon curse thing." Damon says as he watches me closely, his eyes narrowed before he glances at Stefan. "I think she's been compelled. We could lock her in the cellar."

Stefan looks back at me as I stiffen in horror at the thought. He looks back at his brother, appearing to consider the offer. "What about her Aunt? You know Jeremy won't be happy about it and Bonnie and Caroline will be upset."

I can feel my heart pounding erratically in my chest as I back up against the wall. Not that it will do me much good anyway. "But, the witch will hardly bitch about it if it's to keep her safe and the blondie will just have to deal with it."

"I don't like this." Stefan says with a sigh as he looks at me sadly and then back at his brother. "How do we know that he didn't just let her come back and made sure to compel the kidnapping away?"

"If he did then that means he has a trigger word to make her follow him when he comes back." Damon says with a roll of his eyes before he glances back at me and his eyes scan over my body.

I can feel my skin crawl by his stare alone. I'm only in my bra and pants right now. At least I still have the vervain on me, but I haven't even had time to stock up and plan ahead yet. Stefan's eyes scan over me to before they rest on where the necklace had originally laid.

"Her necklace is gone." Stefan adds before glancing at his brother. "We would need to compel Jenna otherwise she will freak out."

Damon scoffs and looks at me in annoyance. "She's already freaking out from what I heard. What possessed you to tell your Aunt about vampires anyway Elena?"

"Uh, because I don't want her to vulnerable to crazy psychotic vampires who desire to drain her dry or use her. Duh." I tell him with a roll of my eyes. "You know. People like you and Stefan."

"Me? That I understand. But saint Stefan?" Damon asks with a quiet laugh as he rolls his eyes. "The perfect brother. The perfect son."

"Right. He's soo perfect that he alone becomes the ripper of Monterey." I say sarcastically as I relax against the wall, banter helps my anxiety a bit. "Not you. You just become a violent, abusive ass. So, to say I don't trust either of you sums it up. Not to mention you are literally trying to justify kidnapping me."

"How do you know about that?" Stefan asks quietly then as he watches me suspiciously with frown. "We never mentioned that."

I let out a groan and then a yawn. "Listen, if you're going to kidnap me then I need to know three things. One - that you have a nice comfortable bed for me. Two - that you will give me action to water twenty four seven, I get thirsty and. . Three - that you will feed me at least three times a day."

Damon chuckles lowly and shakes his head. "You honestly think that you get to make the rules?"

"Nope. But otherwise I do get vindictive."

"You're a plain old human." Damon says sharply as he glares at me. "If you have no vervain on you then you're easy prey, just like every other human."

"Damon." Stefan sharply interrupts him. "Stop it."

The older brother scowls at him and then at me. "No, no. If she wants to do dumb shit then she is going to be removed from the situation."

"Damon." The younger brother snaps again. "Enough."

I hold back a sigh. This is too much drama. "God, just shut up." I tell them through gritted teeth as my annoyance spikes.

If I was a ninja from Naruto then my KI (Killing Intent) would be spiking the hell up right now.

"I want to go to bed. That's all and if you two do not get out of my room I swear to god I will not be held responsible for my actions."

What would those actions be you ask? Honestly .. I'm too sleepy right now. I'll just ignore them and go to sleep. Ironically that seems like something that would drive them both crazy. The amount of effort that would be required? None. Thankfully.

Damon quickly moved behind me, wrapping his hand around my mouth and his arm around my torso as I begin to instinctively struggle. Unfortunately I am currently no match for a vampire. I wasn't even able to get fucking prepared.

When we arrived at what I assume is the boarding house he quickly moved me so that I was being carried over his shoulder. During which I continuously kicked at him and tried to hit him. But, the firearm carry has always scared me - it makes me feel like I'm just going to fall.

Then Damon literally drops me into one of the cells, causing me to land with a thunk. "I would say thanks for the lift, but then I would be lying."

He rolls his eyes as Stefan vampire speeds into the room looking annoyed. Not angry per say, but definitely annoyed.

"Damon." His tone is scolding, but not angry.

"Not now Stefan." The elder brother snaps and then asks darkly. "Do you want her to get herself kidnapped again? I thought you loved her?"

I raise my hand in annoyance. "Can I get a shirt? I don't fancy being half naked in here for the rest of my life."

"Tck, now she's being dramatic." Damon mutters as he rolls his eyes and looks at me again. "Besides, I like it. You look hot." Then he winks at me causing Stefan to snarl at him.

My hands tighten into fists at my side as I look at him, my body remains tense as he stands in there, closer to me then I would like and I do my best to tame my beating heart. He's lucky that I don't kick his ass. I grit my teeth as I feel my anger rise.

"And what about my Aunt? Or my brother?" I ask them stiffly, they seem to notice my demeanor because they look a little sheepish.

"I will be compelling her in the morning." Damon says without an ounce of remorse as he waves it off. "She will think that you're staying with us for awhile."

"And Jeremy will understand." Stefan says with a sigh as he pinches the bridge of his nose. "We just want to keep you safe."

"Fine." I reply with as much sweetness as I can muster before I add through gritted teeth. "But you better bring me some fucking clothes."

"Why?" Damon asks with a wink as he steps into my personal space, however I stand stiffly in place. "You look delicious."

He's lucky that I can't kill him. "If you touch me a vampire will be the least of your worries."

"Damon." Stefan says sharply. "Enough. Lets just get her some clothes. She's here so that we can keep her safe, not to get her hurt more and definitely not to antagonize her."

The older brother rolls his eyes as he looks me over again and winks before he follows his brother out. Stefan stops at the end door and turns back to me.

"We'll get you some clothes. Ignore Damon, he's just acting out because of how worried he is for you."

As they lock the cell I hold back the urge to shudder as Damon looks in on me again before leaving as well. I much preferred to be Elijah's captive.

Keep me safe my ass.

To put it lightly, I am most definitely looking forward to Klaus' possession of Alaric right now.
