hey hey everyone

yeah I know it's been a very long time and this is not really long chapter but I've been busy.

I had to retake some exams during summer and because I really wanted to pass this time, I let the story slip away.

And I met my boyfriend so ^^

i hope you can forgive me...

POV Sam

The evening went on in a slow pace. I was bored to say the least. I enjoyed hearing Damon his voice again but that other woman hanging around his neck bothered me more than I was willing to admit. Who was she and was her love sincere or just compelled? Clearly this entire diner was revolving around the fact that Damon wanted information from Elijah.

After diner his new "girlfriend" asked the women to join her and leave the men to their business.

"I'm sorry but seeing that I am the assistant of Elijah, I'll stay here too"

Damon flashes me a worried look. What is going on here?

"Mister Salvatore, a word please"

He followed me into the kitchen and there he pushes me against the wall. He looks into my eyes looking for the girl I used to be.

"Tell me everything or I kill him" he threatens in a whisper.

"Doesn't really matter, does it? You're going to try that anyway…"

I was bluffing but apparently I had guessed it right.

"And how exactly were you planning on killing an original? And if that really is you're intention, why don't you kill me too?"

"You're not like him…"

"Why Damon? Why am I different?"

He opens his mouth but no sound. After all this time he still couldn't say the words. He steps back and leaves me standing against the wall.

"even after all this time, you still can't say what you feel Damon? Or is it her? Katherine is gone Damon and Elena is with Stefan. When will you finally understand and see what's right in front of you?"

I walk away and leave him in the kitchen. Hoping that he would call me back but every step away makes my hope shrink. I join the women in the living room but I start reading the titles of the books. I don't need their babbling nonsense. I was listening to the conversation in the other room.

Andie starts talking about Damon, I turn my head and look at her. The light in her eyes betrays her. This love isn't real. It's fake. Why is he doing this? Why doesn't he try loving me, why don't I get my chance?

I walk out of the room and join the men.

"Did you know the story about a dagger and the ashes of that tree beloved brother?"

I start the conversation. Damon stops and looks at me. Again I guessed correctly.

"Yes, I think I do, why sister?"

"Funny how most people forget that one detail about vampires using the dagger, don't you think?"

"Yes very inconvenient for the vampire in question."

"Sad way to die, trying to kill an original and dying in the attempt. But I'm sure mister Gilbert wouldn't forget to tell that little detail, now would he?"

I give a meaningful look at Damon. He vamps out. He looks at Jonathan and pulls him out of the room.

"Now boys don't kill each other will you, what would the ladies think about that? Especially Andie"

Damon stops, turns to look at me but stops the motion.

"Yeah, wouldn't want her to think I'm a vampire right"

Ow no you didn't. He really cares about her? No, he can't, she's compelled. This isn't right.

"gentlemen I hope you don't mind, but I feel no longer welcome. It was nice meeting you again Alaric, take care of Jenna will you? Brother."

A short nod more is not needed. But I knew in my heart that I left my brother in a certain risk. Sometimes my brother was oblivious to certain threat around him. Even with the not so subtle hints, he didn't realize that they indeed were in possession of the dagger with the ashes. He had become too certain over the years. He sees himself as… an immortal that can't be destroyed.

But knowing that Klaus is still somewhere out there, doing his thing, trying to get to the doppelganger and all the other items. He makes it sound like an easy recipe, like for a cake or something. These are people we're talking about. But what does he care? No, the moment father stopped caring about Klaus. Klaus stopped caring about life.

I closed the door behind me and decided I would stop caring for Damon Salvatore. But who was I kidding, the others or myself. I couldn't stop being who I am. I would always love and care for him. Till the day it kills me and I have a feeling that day is coming faster than expected…

So this was it :)

not very long I know but still it's there my friends

I hope I can update more often from now on

but I don't promise a thing. But know that you're not forgotten
