FEEDBACKS ARE LOVELY!

Instead she was young and alone.

"What the hell , Bonnie!" Damon screamed, watching the eyes of the witch going blank, and held her shoulders shaking her body firmly.

"Damon!" Caroline called from the bathroom.

Elena was just over throwing up. She looked up at her friend with her eyes partially closed and her hands shaking. She leaned over to toilet for support.

"It's okay..Go..Go check her" she whispered, weak.

Caroline nodded, pulling some locks of hair away from her friend's face and placing her cold hands on her cheeks.

"Elena, hunnie, I'm coming soon. Wait two seconds." She reassured her and blurred in the other room.

Bonnie seemed to be drawn back from her trance, as she stared at the two vampires in front of her, terrified.

"What was it, Bonnie?" the blonde knelt down to face her, her voice kept soft, yet afraid to hear what the witch would say.

"It was death" she replied in a flat tone, her eyes wide.

"What..? " Damon asked, narrowing his eyes in his cocky tone. He suddenly stopped and went in the bathroom.

"Elena" he exclaimed , reaching for the girl on the floor.

"Bring me home, Damon.." she whispered keeping her eyes closed, tilting her head from left to right.

He took her in his embrace and shook her gently.

"Elena" he called back, placing his hands on her face. "Open your eyes, look at me!" he begged for her attention, lifting her chin.

"I want to see my mom" she stated, as Damon widened his eyes in surprise. His heart broke for a moment, realizing it should have been her mother the one next to her right now.

Instead she was young and alone.

"Shh. It's okay." He whispered firmly. "It's Damon, babe. Focus."

Elena seemed to wake up with his touch, trying hard to listen to what he was saying.

Everything seemed a blur. She couldn't picture those blue depths.

"I can't see .. " she panicked, panting .

Damon seemed taken aback for some instants, then ordered with a strict voice.

"Caroline, go get her some water " he didn't unlock his gaze with hers. "Put sugar in it."

Elena trembled.

"Here. I'll take you to your bed" he neared the distance between their faces, stroking slightly his lips against the flesh of her forehead.

The girl nodded weakly.

"Safe and sound" Damon commented once she was in her bed under the heavy covers.

Caroline blurred next to them as Bonnie held Elena's hand tighter.

"Drink this, 'Lena" the blonde suggested sweetly .She approached the human, positioning the glass next to her lips. "You'll feel better soon."

"Otherwise we'll go with plan B" Damon interrupted, leaning out from Caroline's back in order to get a better view.

"I don't want to drink any blood" Elena muttered, taking big sips. She realized how thirsty she was.

After a few minutes, her skin seemed to have regained some of its natural shade.

Caroline smiled. "You fell better,don't you?"

Elena simply nodded, fixing her gaze into Bonnie's. "What did you see?"

Bonnie didn't answer. Instead, she asked something back. "What happened when Stefan was here?"

The human's expression went emotionless . Damon froze and stared at a blank point ahead of him,waiting for the confirm of his suspects to arrive.

Caroline caught the change of the two. "Elena" she called warily .

"We.." and again, the piercing silence filled the room,letting the answer hung up in the air.

"How could you, Elena! After everything he put you, us , through! I thought your self control went beyond your self esteem !" Caroline blurt out, reaching her hands to the top.

Damon snapped, piling the blonde on the wall before the bed.

"Damon!" Elena screamed concerned. "Let her go."

Bonnie didn't say anything, she kept on giving her friends concerned looks.

"I think I'm going to go home. I need some rest." She stood up, leaving a quick peck on her best friend's cheek. "You should sleep ,too".

"Why are you avoiding me?" Elena demanded, not missing how flat Bonnie's tone had become.

Both Caroline and Damon stopped fighting, eyeing the scene in front of them.

"I'm not avoiding you, Elena."

And with that said, the witch began to chant a spell until the girl drifted off to sleep.

"Why did you do that?" Caroline complained.

"It was for the best. She'll know everything tomorrow, right now she can't handle it." The witch explained, headed towards the threshold.

"I guess I can" Damon stopped her. "Last time I ask, Bonnie. What did you see?"

After a brief pause, the answer was given. "it was all blurry and confused. However, I didn't miss anything. There was Klaus, talking to Stefan. He didn't seem to be fully aware.."

"Compulsion" Caroline explained aloud, as Damon nodded and beckoned Bonnie to continue.

The girl sighed. "Then he came here. They did what they did. And then…"

"Then what, Bonnie?" Damon's voice became tense both from the confirmation and the need to know, and his eyes burned as he waited for the answer.

"I saw something I sensed like death. It touched Elena.. Elena's lips, then her neck, then .. her belly" Bonnie shook her head. "I don't know what to think. I don't know what it means."

The three eyed the girl who slept unconscious in her bed, and as she released a few sighs, Damon's heart melted with love.

"Is there anything you can do to find out what it was about?" Caroline asked, speaking slowly.

He still couldn't remove his gaze from her flawless face.

"I need to go home and search in my ancestors' grimoires . I'll let you know as soon as I find something. " Bonnie reassured,leaving.

"Damon.." Elena's voice called back both vampires from their silent thoughts. "Stay with me."

They believed she had woken up at first, but her even breath confirmed she was dreaming about him.

Caroline's eyes softened, eyeing the handsome guy next to her.

"You're the only one she has left . I've known Elena since our childhood. When she loves, she gives all of herself." The blonde shook her head slightly, smiling with sympathy . "Don't ever let her go."

With that, Damon was left alone with who he needed the most.

He approached, laying down next to her and embracing her in his strong chest.

"I love you" he whispered and kissed her head before falling asleep.
