Disclaimer: I do not own anything related to The Vampire Diaries, TV show or books. However I decided to have a little play around with the characters (I would definitely like to play with Damon).

I intend to update and complete Elena's Fantasy Diaries between Christmas and New Year.
Elena held out Megan's phone for everyone to see the picture of Megan and Grayson, which looked to be a few years old, although Elena couldn't say for certain. Judging by Megan's appearance Elena suspected Megan was in her early teens when the picture was taken.
"Why would Megan know your dad?" Bonnie asked.
"I don't know." Elena frowned, putting Megan's phone down and picking up her dad's journal, one of the two which weren't about his vampire research. Elena had been trying to find a link to why he's included it with his Whitmore journals while she'd been reading them in the car on the way home. She suddenly had an idea which could explain the link.
"Maybe she was a patient of his." Ric suggested as Elena continued to try and find the page she was looking for.
"There is an entry about a young girl in 1999, who was a heart patient." Elena frowned. "She was seven at the time." she said, as the revelation hit her. "I think I remember my dad talking about this little girl. I wonder if he was talking about Megan." she continued as she flicked through the pages until she found the part where she'd earlier stopped reading. At the time she didn't want to snoop into her father's confidential patient details. However it turned out it might be important after all, under those circumstances, snooping was entirely allowed in her eyes. "Listen to this." she said as read out a passage from her dad's journal. ""January 1999. Saw Megan King today. Megan is seven years old. She suffers from a congenital heart defect with a life expectancy of two months. A single injection of vampire blood appears to be an effective life-saving solution." Oh my god. That's why Megan had a picture of my dad on her phone...because he saved her life." she cried.
"That answers that question about how she knew your dad." Damon said. "But why would they stay in touch possibly six, maybe even seven years later?" he asked as Elena shrugged, not knowing what to say, it was as much of a mystery to her. "It was clearly nothing to do with keeping a medical eye on Megan as once vampire blood healed, it didn't suddenly un-heal itself. So it was something else." Damon added.
"So there is a link between Megan and the Augustine society." Stefan stated.
"And she was still drinking vervain water." Caroline said.
"Well dad wasn't supplying her with water when she started college." Elena shook her head. "Which means she must have gotten it from somewhere else."
"Yeah but who? Maybe she was still in touch with someone else from the society?" Caroline suggested. "I said she knew about us." she growled, folding her arms.
"But who?" Elena asked.
"Maybe Doctor Wes Maxfield." Ric said.
"Who?" Damon asked.
"The person who signed Megan's death certificate confirming it was suicide and not an animal attack or a vampire bite." Ric explained. "He's one of the college professors here." he told them. "He teaches microbiology. He's very... intense." he frowned. "I bumped into him while I was settling into my office which is near Whitmore house." he said.
"Good work Ric. Looks like we have a viable candidate for Doctor Frankenstein the third, or fourth, or maybe even the fifth." Damon smirked.
"You think he could be responsible for running the current Augustine program?" Caroline asked.
"He clearly knows about vampires and it willing to cover it up." Damon said. "And Ric says he's creepy."
"Intense." Ric corrected him.
"Intense, creepy, whatever." Damon shrugged. "He's clearly shady. Only someone familiar with the project would cover it up, which makes Dr Maxfield our number one suspect." he said with a satisfied smile.
"So what do we do now?" Bonnie asked.
"Well, it depends on who feels like studying microbiology?" Damon asked.
"I'll do it." Elena replied, holding up her hand.
"No! Absolutely not!" Damon insisted, glaring at Elena.
"It makes sense if I do it Damon." Elena started. "He won't suspect a thing. My dad studied here. He was an Augustine doctor. If Dr Maxfield knows anything about the research project, he'll know who my dad was. It might give me an advantage to get to know him." she smirked.
"What about me?" Bonnie asked.
"You are going to be doing whatever witchiness is needed for the rescue plan, and you volunteered for Enzo rehab." Damon smirked. "Plus you're on magic filter duty. And you're human, meaning you don't need to be invited into Whitmore house, so you don't need to get involved until the rescue mission itself. You've got enough to do. Conserve your strength, and while you do, I'd suggest you cram in as much studying while you can." he suggested. "You're gonna be a busy little bee when you're dealing with Enzo." he added.
"Surely looking after Enzo isn't going to be that hard." Bonnie sighed.
"You are going to have to charm him with your feminine ways." Damon told her. "So trust me, you have got a harder job than you think." he smirked as Bonnie rolled her eyes.
"What about me?" Stefan asked.
"Yeah, and me." Caroline frowned.
"Well Stefan, I doubt you would do much better charming him with your feminine ways than Sabrina, who does has magic as a back up plan when all else fails." Damon smirked. "And Blondie, I have a very specific mission which you are the most suitably qualified person for." he smiled. "And I actually think you'll enjoy it." he added.
"And that is?" Caroline asked, raising a suspicious eyebrow.
"Try getting on to the planning committees. Anything like that. Especially if Dr Maxfield is involved." Damon suggested as Caroline's eyes lit up.
"I was already planning to do that." Caroline told him.
"Thought so." Damon nodded. "That alone should get you an invite into Whitmore house." he said.
"I can go with Elena." Stefan offered. "That's if you're worried about the baby and stuff." he suggested.
"I'm doing it Damon!" Elena declared, putting her dad's journal back down and looking through Megan's phone once more.
"Okay, fine Elena." Damon sighed before turning to Stefan. "I'll feel better if you go with her brother." he agreed. "But I am going to need at least one person to become friends with..." he picked up the document he'd brought in with him. "With Aaron Whitmore." he said.
"Who's Aaron Whitmore?" Bonnie asked.
"He's our meal ticket into Whitmore house." Damon smiled.
"And someone who happens to be in Megan's contact list." Elena frowned as she looked through the texts and calls. "Aaron must have been the person she was meeting up with as he was the last person she text, which says 'See you later'." Elena said.
"Looks like we have another connection." Damon smiled. "So who is going to befriend Aaron?" he asked. "Stefan?" he suggested.
"I'll see what I can find out." Stefan sighed.
"And how are you going to get in?" Elena asked.
"Easy." Damon smirked. "I'm going to get caught."
"WHAT!" Elena screamed, standing up. "You are not going in there again!" she demanded.
"Don't worry. They won't have time to ruffle my hair." Damon put his arms around Elena. "I'll get caught just before you storm the building."
"So now we've got to rescue two of you?" Bonnie frowned.
"Yes and no." Damon shrugged.
"I'll assess what needs to be down to Enzo to make sure he's easy to get out without escaping." Damon explained. "I need to find out exactly how pissed off with me Enzo is going to be. Otherwise he could be trouble." he winced.
"I'm taking it there's more to the story of just being prisoners." Stefan raised an eyebrow.
"Why would he be pissed off with you?" Caroline asked.
"Is this to do with you escaping and him still being there?" Ric asked as Damon nodded. "Oh he's gonna be pissed alright." he laughed.
"It's not a joke." Elena said. "That's why you told me about the little plan you and Enzo hatched isn't it?" she folded her arms as Damon nodded. "I don't want you to go back in there." she begged.
"It's my only way in." Damon sighed.
"We'll do it without you." Elena argued.
"Do it without me and you're not going in there." Damon replied angrily. "The moment Enzo finds out your are Elena Gilbert, daughter of the esteemed Dr Grayson Gilbert, what do you think he will do?" Hmm?" he asked.
"I can take him. Ric trained me." Elena replied confidently.
Damon took a deep breath. "Enzo was a soldier." he said. "His pain tolerance is higher than anyone here, maybe save Ric. And I'm guessing he's quite partial to vervain on the bloody rocks. It seems that stuff will not take him down." he continued. "It is going to require pure ultimate vampire muscle power and a dose of magic. We might even need an extra human with the ability to shoot and not die. Does anyone here know how to use a gun properly?" he asked as everyone except Ric and Stefan shook their heads.
"Why?" Bonnie asked.
"We are going to need fire power of the non-magical variety." Damon told her. "Wooden bullets and tranquilizers."
"So two shooters" Ric raised an eyebrow as Damon nodded. "Well I can fill one role." he suggested.
"I can be the other shooter." Stefan suggested but Damon shook his head.
"We don't know how strong Enzo is. Or what tests they've run on him." Damon told them. "We need all of the vampire power we can get, which is why Ric can't be on shooter duty as he is an Original vampire. Which leaves either Quarterback or Little Gilbert, as they have fairly decent gun skills, thanks to yours truly.." he smirked. "Now unless Sabrina can find a way to make a Gilbert ring which protects a supernatural hunter, that leaves Donovan. Which is...concerning." he frowned.
"You want to bring Matt into this?" Elena looked at Damon in shock.
"We'll have Stefan as one of our shooters and Quarterback the other, who will be wearing a Gilbert ring, which means as long as he shoots first, and gets killed later, he should be good to come back as annoying as ever." Damon smirked.
"And why do you think the Enzo guy might not go with us?" Caroline asked. "Isn't shooting him just going to aggravate him and make it worse? Why don't we talk to him nicely instead?" she asked.
Damon shifted about uncomfortably, which Elena recognized as another uncomfortable tale he probably needed to tell them, just so they knew what to be prepared for. But as this would involve Enzo, she suspected it would be best to come from Damon's mouth first, not from Enzo.
"Damon." Elena said softly. "You need to tell us your side of the story. Otherwise people are going to hear Enzo's first and won't listen to yours." she told him.
"I know." Damon groaned.
"We all know Enzo was left behind." Elena started. "I'm guessing the reason he's going to be pissed has something to do with why he was left behind." she said as Damon nodded. "I won't judge. You know that don't you?" she smiled, took his hand and rubbed it in a soothing manner, the way she always did to calm him down.
"I think it's best we know what to expect." Stefan agreed. "I won't judge you for what you did. You needed to escape." he said.
"I'm guessing whatever happened must have been a high price to pay." Bonnie sighed. "But we know bits of it already. You are only filling in the blanks." she said.
"Well I'll decide after I've heard the story." Caroline folded her arms. "If Damon finds it bad, it must be really bad, so I can't promise not to judge, but I will try." she agreed.
"Fair enough." Damon shrugged, appreciating Caroline's honesty.
"Go on." Elena encouraged him.
Damon took a deep breath and started his story. "They let us out of the basement once a year." he told them. "Every New Year's Eve, the Augustine people had a little cocktail party with a vampire buffet on the side. We were weak from vervain injections...half-starved from living on a glass of blood a day, chained up like animals. This little annual shindig is where Dr. Whitmore got to show all of his Augustine friends what he'd found in his research. He let his guests drink from us to demonstrate the healing power of vampire blood. But on the plus side, that's how Enzo came up with his plan." he explained.
"The problem with our daily ration of blood was that it was barely enough for one vampire to survive on." Damon continued. "But Enzo figured if one of us were to drink two rations every day for the next year, he'd be able to build up his strength so that by the time New Year's Eve came round again that one of us would be ready to fight back." he told them. "It was just a matter of choosing which one of us would get stronger." he said.
"How did you choose?" Stefan asked.
"It was simple. We played scissor, paper, stone to decide." Damon smiled. "After three rounds, I won. So I drank the blood every day for a year to get my strength up for the next party." he said.
"So it worked?" Elena asked.
"More or less." Damon said thoughtfully.
"What went wrong?" Caroline asked,
"I'd been drinking Enzo's rations for an entire year. I mean, he kept a few drops here and there so he wouldn't desiccate, and as he starved himself, I got stronger from all the extra blood just like he said I would." Damon told them. "Like he usually did, Dr Whitmore took us to the New Years party. Then just before midnight, he introduced us, and instead of offering the guests a glass of champagne to toast in the New Year, he offered vampire blood instead." he continued. "Dr Whitmore let me out wearing only handcuffs, thinking I was too weak to do anything and locked Enzo in the cage. I began to push against the cuffs, breaking every bone in my hand, until it was deformed enough for me to free it." he said.
"Oh my god." Elena whispered, clamping her hand over her mouth with horror.
"What they didn't figure on was my healing abilities." Damon smiled. "Dr Whitmore thought I was too weak to heal, but because I'd been drinking the extra blood, I healed right away. But just to make sure, I fed on Dr Whitmore." he said. "As you can imagine, everyone at the party was now terrified. I was a starving vampire, and if I released Enzo, that would be two starving vampires. The party survival rate would have been zero." Damon took a deep breath. "I started to feed to get even stronger to help get Enzo out. But I got so carried away with the feed, I didn't notice that in all of the chaos, someone had knocked over a candelabra and set the room on fire." he carried on. "Obviously Enzo noticed it and shouted for me. So I rushed over to help to try and free him. What we hadn't counted on was the bars of the cage being heavily laced with vervain. No matter how strong I was, even with Enzo's help, I couldn't open the cage. The vervain burned too much." Damon's eyes dropped as he started the final part of his story.
"By this point the fire was out of control. If I'd have stayed, I'd either have been caught, or died in the fire." he explained. "I couldn't help Enzo. It was a lost cause. Then I realized this was my one and only chance to escape." he said.
"So you took it." Stefan spat as Damon nodded.
"And I knew if I was going to save myself, that I had to stop caring about Enzo. So I turned off my emotions." Damon swallowed. "I left my friend to die." he closed his eyes for a moment. "After that, everything was fine." he thoughtfully, as if staring into space. "Everything was just fine."
"Which is why you thought Enzo was dead." Ric asked, to which Damon simply nodded in reply.
"And that is why you turned off your humanity for so long." Stefan said as Damon nodded once more. "It explains a lot."
"Now I understand why you did what you did." Elena said to Damon. "You know, what you told me earlier." she smiled sadly.
"And that means we are going to be dealing with one extremely pissed off vampire." Caroline sighed.
"So how the hell did he survive?" Bonnie frowned.
"Now that is the million dollar question." Damon shrugged. "I should have realized there was a chance Enzo was alive when I found out about Grayson being a member of the Augustine's. But as he was testing on Enzo in 1999, so he obviously did survive." he sighed. "He's going to want revenge on the remaining Whitmores, the Augustines and anyone tied to them, including Elena, Jeremy and the baby. I also expect he's going to want revenge on me too." he added. "So I'm going to ask the question once more, are you all sure you want to save him?"
"We owe it to him." Elena told him. "You owe it to him for leaving him." she told Damon. "Stefan owes it to him for not realizing you were missing and not attempting to rescue you, even if there was no way he could ever know. Right now, Enzo doesn't know that." she continued. "Jer and I owe it to him for what dad put him through. We have a responsibility to help him, no matter what it takes. Then maybe one day he'll forgive us." she said.
"So that's one vote for the save Enzo mission. Anyone else?" Damon asked.
"I'm in." Caroline stated immediately.
"Me too." Bonnie agreed.
"You're going to need the muscle power of an unkillable Original." Ric smiled.
"Elena's right." Stefan nodded. "He needs our help. I guess if I can't put it right with you, helping your friend is the next best thing."
"So that's a unanimous agreement to save Enzo." Damon announced. "So are we happy with the Quarterback being Scooby's little human helper?" he asked.
"Matt's better with a gun than Jer. And Jer has school, so my vote would go with Matt." Elena said. "That's if he'd want to do it." she said.
"He's safer than Jer because he can wear the Gilbert ring." Bonnie agreed.
"I'll compel his boss to let him have the day off." Caroline suggested. "But we might need to pay him for his lost earnings." she said.
"Easy done." Damon smiled.
"I'll go call him." Caroline got up and walked off into the kitchen to call Matt to see if he would help them rescue Enzo.
Damon turned to Bonnie. "Remember that magical rope trick you did on the island?" he asked. "The one where you spelled a rope so the person tied up would do exactly what whoever was holding the rope wanted them to do."
"Yeah." Bonnie replied.
"I think we might need some more of that rope." Damon nodded.
"Anything else?" Bonnie asked.
"Can you magically unpick locks?" Damon asked. "Just in case they're of the vervain digital type." he said. "I'm expecting them to have updated the security technology since I was down there." he sighed.
"I'm sure I can find something." Bonnie smiled.
"What do you want me to do?" Elena asked.
"I haven't gotten that far into the plan yet. Other than shooting, being strong, and doing magic, who's doing whatever else, needs to be finalized, lets just concentrate on stage one first." Damon frowned.
Stage one?" Elena asked.
"Stage one is see how many people can get invited into Whitmore house." Damon told her. "This is not an overnight rescue mission. It may take a couple of weeks. But the sooner everyone is in, the better." he said turning to Elena. "But I really don't want you in there. I have a better idea." he said.
"Are you intending to leave me behind because I'm pregnant?" Elena asked indignantly.
"No Elena, but I'm going to be in the cell." Damon told her. "If you see that, you're going to get all angry and protective which might push the baby into overdrive. And we don't know how the baby will respond." he said. "I'd prefer a stealthier approach. But it doesn't mean we can't use our connection from a distance." Damon smiled. "I have an idea which might require working on, one which unfortunately Judgy doesn't like." he grimaced.
"What's that?" Bonnie asked.
"Simultaneous feeding." Damon said to Bonnie. "Make sure we're all psychically linked. But this time we use it wisely." he said as Bonnie winced.
"What do you mean?" Stefan asked.
"I'm talking about us having a bona fida psychic walkie talkie link between me, Elena and Sabrina." Damon explained. "I get in there and tell you what you need to know and expect when you get there." he explained. "That way we can have someone stalling Dr Maxfield, or whoever is doing the research, while everyone else is rescuing me and Enzo." he said.
Caroline returned to the room. "Matt's in." she said. "Although I don't think Jeremy was too happy to find out we chose Matt over him." she said.
"It's one of the pitfalls of being a hunter." Damon sighed. "The Gilbert ring doesn't work, ergo you are not invited to the party." he grinned. "So, are we all set for the first part of the plan?" he asked. "Get to know the Whitmores and Dr Wes Maxfield."
Two days later Elena was in the kitchen drinking coffee, waiting for Stefan. Damon had tasked Ric and Caroline with getting involved with committees to try and infiltrate their way into the Augustine Society, although he knew it was a long shot. Because of this, Damon felt completely useless when it came to keeping their vampire secret a secret. At this rate he was considering enrolling for college himself, just to get to know this creepy professor.
As Stefan walked into the kitchen, Elena handed him a cup of coffee and a sheet of paper.
"What's this?" Stefan frowned.
"I switched our classes around, so that we could meet Dr Maxfield." Elena told him. "He's now our Applied Microbiology professor." she grinned.
"Applied...what?" Stefan frowned. "Um, Elena, I'm supposed to be taking Intro to Communication Technology. Not Applied Microbiology." he added as Damon laughed.
"You're not going to be an Anything major if we get exposed as vampires!" Elena told him. "The way Damon kept his secret in Mystic Falls was because he infiltrated the Founders Council. Right Damon?" she asked as she turned to Damon for back up.
"Time to re-shape the hero hair brother." Damon smirked. "It's your turn to be me." he added, taking Elena's empty cup from her and placing it in the dishwasher.
"You ready?" Elena asked Stefan, who nodded as Damon kissed her before she and Stefan set off for college.
Stefan and Elena walked into the lecture hall for Dr. Maxfield's class. On the way to their seats, Elena noticed Jesse, the guy who had the hots for Caroline.
"Hey. Where's Blow-Off Girl." Jesse asked before frowning at Stefan and Elena.
"Caroline isn't in this class." Elena replied.
"Wait, aren't you a freshman?" Jesse asked Elena, ignoring Stefan. "How are you in this class?" he narrowed his eyes suspiciously.
"She's with me." Stefan added. "Applied Microbiology...It's, like, um." Stefan started, but tailed off at the expression of doubt on Jesse's face.
"Are you going to the bonfire tonight?" Jesse asked, changing the topic. "Or more importantly is your hot friend going tonight?"
"Oh she'll be there." Elena grinned, wondering if Stefan might get jealous of the attention being paid to Caroline.
"As long as she doesn't get really close and then turns around and leaves again?" Jesse said.
"Don't worry, she won't." Elena insisted.
"Sweet. We'll hang." Jesse grinned as Elena gave him a thumbs up while Stefan pushed her away to a few rows back, preparing to hide from Dr. Maxfield.
"What?" Elena asked innocently. "He's into Caroline. He's cute, he's interested, and most importantly, unlike Tyler, he's here." she added as Stefan wordlessly narrowed his eyes at Elena. Just at that moment, a blonde-haired man walked into the lecture hall with a confident stride.
"Morning, everyone." Dr. Maxfield's voice resonated around the room. "I'm Dr. Maxfield. First name is Wes, but call me Dr. Maxfield. One day, when you're out of med school, you'll understand." he told them arrogantly. "So, you're all going to this bonfire tonight, right? Well, here's a quick history lesson for you. Whitmore was founded as a hospital during the Civil War. Deadliest war in American history...over 600,000 casualties. Disease was so prevalent that once a week, they had to gather all the dead, rotting bodies, put them in a pile, and light the whole thing on fire. So tonight, when you're getting drunk and partying, stop for a second, close your eyes, and imagine the rancid smell of a hundred rotting corpses." he smiled.
"This guy is creepy." Stefan whispered to Elena.
"Damon was right, even without meeting him." Elena giggled.
"Which brings us to microbiology..." Dr. Maxfield continued. "...because that rancid smell comes from a very specific bacteria. Isn't that right, chatty boy and girl in the back?" Elena and Stefan stopped smiling and turned to face Dr. Maxfield. "And what is that bacteria?" he asked.
"Uh, that's the, um...um...I don't know." Elena admitted.
"Maybe because you are freshmen, who shouldn't be in this class." Dr. Maxfield said dryly. "How do I know? I'm observant...a skill you'll learn in Bio 101, down the hall." he snapped before pointing to the door, as Stefan and Elena stood up from their seats and promptly left the room.
As soon as they left the room Elena made her way to Caroline and Bonnie's dorm to call Damon to let him know how it had gone. In the meantime, Stefan had decided to attend his Intro to Communication Technology, hoping he wouldn't be too late. Fortunately having vamp-speed meant he would only be a couple of minutes late at the most. Damon picked up his phone as soon as Elena pressed his speed dial.
"Morning sexy, could resist five minutes without me? Or has Stefan bored you to death talking about his hero hair?" Damon asked jokingly.
"Damon!" Elena chided. "We were kicked out within two minutes." she told him.
"That has to be a record." Damon laughed. "What happened?" he asked.
"He knew we were freshman the moment he saw us." Elena said. "So he asked us a question about some bacteria which causes a rancid smell from rotting corpses." she explained.
"Which I'm guessing you didn't know the answer to." Damon sighed. "So what happened after he caught you out?" he asked, clearly trying to control his laughter.
"It was mortifying. We just sat there in silence." Elena grimaced at the memory.
"You want me to beat him up?" Damon offered.
"Not yet." Elena replied. "Whatever he knows, I'm gonna try and get it out of him my way." she said.
"Did you compel him?" Damon asked.
"No, there's no point, because chances are, if he signed the death certificate, then he knows about vampires, which also means he knows about vervain." Elena said. "The chances are he'll be full of it. He might even be the one who was supplying Megan." she suggested.
"Maybe." Damon said thoughtfully, before changing the subject back to getting information out of Dr. Maxfield. "How about violence? Did you threaten him?" he suggested.
"No, I didn't threaten him." Elena shook her head.
"Would you at least tell me you used torture?" he asked.
"Damon!" Elena chided him.
"You do realize that you are dating a reformed serial killer, right?" Damon insisted, causing Elena to laugh.
"What would a hero do?" Elena asked.
"Pfft, that, I have no idea." Damon replied. "I've never been a hero." he said.
"You're my hero." Elena said shyly.
"Shh. Don't say things like that." Damon whispered. "I have a reputation of absolute evil to uphold. Even if I don't actually torture or kill, my reputation should hopefully be enough to make people fear me." he told her.
"So, oh evil one." Elena joked. "What is plan B of your evil master plan to get me into Whitemore house?" she asked.
"Use your feminine charms?" Damon joked.
"Seriously?" Elena asked.
"Fine, hang around, see if he knows who you are. That should be an ice-breaker." Damon suggested.
"And if that doesn't work?" Elena asked.
"Then we resort to plan C." Damon told her.
"Which is?" Elena sighed, dreading the next answer.
"We kidnap and torture him, bleed him dry of vervain and compel him to let all of us into Whitmore house." he replied triumphantly.
"Damon!" Elena shook her head.
"Well, if you don't want to resort to plan C, you need to make a start on plan B." Damon told her.
"Fine, I'll get on it." Elena sighed, when she suddenly remembered Jesse inviting her to the bonfire. "While we were waiting for Dr. Maxfield, we bumped into this guy who has the hots for Caroline." she told him. "He invited us to a bonfire tonight. In front of Stefan. So I told him we'd be there, including and especially Caroline."
"And how did Stefan take it?" Damon asked.
"I couldn't tell." Elena frowned. "Caroline's not into Jesse, well not as far as I can tell. But Stefan doesn't know that." she smiled.
"You think jealousy might give him a little push?" Damon asked.
"It can't hurt can it?" Elena replied.
"Let's go to the party tonight and find out." Damon replied.
"Look, I've got to go." Elena sighed. "Occult studies, and I doubt Ric will be able to show favoritism and let me off being late." she told him.
"Okay, I love you. See you later." Damon said.
"I love you too. See you when I get home." she replied as they both hung up.
