Waking Up Underneath the Willow Tree

Chapter 2

Elena gasped as she sat up in the bed. She couldn't move. Why couldn't she move? Her eyes shifted focus as she looked around what appeared to be a hospital room. She tried to move again then looked down. She was in restraints. Who the hell had tied her down?

She knew that she had just killed a man a while ago, but she didn't deserve to be treated like some kind of animal. Her throat burned as she swallowed. She was thirsty. More thirsty than she had been when that man found her on the road. Had he done this to her? Where was he now?

The door clicked open and Elena turned her attention to the door. The man who had found her on the side of the road entered holding a glass of red liquid. Was that blood?

"What did you do to me? Is that blood?"

"1st I saved you from someone else finding you in those woods. Not many people would see a murder and not turn you in. 2nd this is what your craving. Open your mouth."

"Why am I in restraints?"

"New vampires tend to be dangerous. This is for the safety of others. Now go ahead and open up. I know you're starving by now."

"How long have I been out?"

"A day."

"A whole day wow."

Damon went over to the side of her bed as she opened her mouth. The red liquid slipped through her lips and she felt herself wanting more. Needing more. She emptied the glass and Damon took it from her.

"I need more."

"Not for another eight hours you don't."

"What?"

"It's so you learn how to control your bloodlust. It will suck for a while, but you'll get used to it and thank me later."

"Why did you save me?"

"Because you needed my help. Do you remember anything about who you are?"

"I remember that my name is Elena now. I guess that's the bright side of being a vampire."

"It will take some time for you to get them all back. They seem to hit you out of nowhere, but you'll learn how to handle them."

"How do you know about this stuff?"

"Because i'm a vampire too. It's not as bad as it seems."

Before Elena could say anything Damon was at the door.

"I'll see you later Elena."

And then he was gone.
