Hey guys. So in my first couple chapters I said "no flames" and stuff and I just want to say that I don't want to stop you from giving me constructive criticism. Anything you have in mind that you think might help to make my story better is much appreciated. Now that, that's said, here's chapter 11. Disclaimer: I do not own Vampire Diaries.

Chapter 11

Stefen flew across the room towards Damon, his fist ready to make contact. Damon however was prepared and sidestepped his attack before slamming his elbow into his brother's face. There was a definite crack as his elbow made contact with his jaw.

Damon punched him in the face, sending him flying into the wall, making another crack. Stefen sunk to the floor for a moment. He sprang up soon after and charged for his brother again. Instead of sticking to his original path, he switched to slide behind him and pulling him into a choke hold. Damon quickly flipped him over his back and smashed him into a table.

It was several more minutes before Stefen managed to land a hit on Damon. His anger driving him from that point on. They exchanged blows, smashing into the furniture around them. They didn't concern themselves with the furniture breaking to pieces and just continued fighting.

Damon and Stefen stood in the middle of the destroyed room. There were holes in the walls everywhere and all the furniture was in pieces. Stefen's arm hung at his side, useless, though he could feel it healing. There was blood on his face and on his side, the wounds already closing.

Damon was in better condition but he had some blood on his shoulder, his wound already closed. They had been fighting for hours and it was now dark outside. Damon walked over to the only table that survived and filled his glass with bourbon once again. He poured the liquid down his throat, swallowing quickly, pouring himself another glass.

Stefen stood still for a few minutes. He was still pissed at Damon for sleeping with Elena, but he had used up all his steam. Now he just felt crushed. Without another glance at his brother, he walked up the stairs to his room.

Damon turned to the broken window and stared into the darkness, taking another drink.

Elena woke up to her alarm going off, showing it was 6 a.m. She shut off the alarm and got out of bed to take a shower. She finished up, brushing her hair and teeth and putting on her make-up. She put on some white washed hip huggers and a green ¾ sleeve shirt. She picked up her backpack and coat and walked out of her room, down to the kitchen. She got herself a bowl of cereal and sat down to eat it. Jeremy walked into the room, got himself a bowl, and sat next to her. They ate in silence. Once Elena was finished, she took her bowl to the sink, rinsing the dish and looking at the clock. 7:43.

"You need a ride?" she asked her brother as he finished up as well.

"Naw."

"Okay. Well I'm leaving. See you at school." She grabbed her coat, backpack, and keys, and walked out the front door.

Elena walked into the school and walked to her locker. She met up with Caroline and Bonnie. They walked together to their classes before going their separate ways. The day went by fast and before she knew it she was walking back to her car. Stefen hadn't been at school but she didn't concern herself with it. She knew that he missed every once in awhile and it was nothing for her to freak out over.

Instead of driving straight home, Elena found herself driving towards the graveyard. She parked her car before walking up to a certain gravestone.

"Hey, Mom. Hey, Dad." She said quietly as she sat down. She leaned her head against the stone as she continued to talk. "It's been forever since I've visited. It's just been a little crazy lately. Me and Stefen broke up. We're just gunna be friends. At least I hope we will be."

"Me and Damon went on a trip to Georgia together. He was so different from how he usually is while we were there. Something happened. I don't know what it was. I can't stop thinking about him now though. Every time I try to forget everything, something reminds me of him again."

"I shouldn't feel this way about him. He's killed so many people and he's enjoyed it. He's evil." She sighed as she pulled her knees up to her chest. "But if he's evil, why did he treat me like he did in Georgia. He showed me another side of him that I don't think he's showed anyone in a long time."

"But I can't forgive him for the way he treated me on the way home. He just pushed me away. He used me. How can I have feelings for someone like that? Someone that just uses and throws away women."

"I haven't seen him since he dropped me off at home. I hope I don't have to see him again. I refuse to fall for his tricks again." Elena stood up from the ground, wiping off the dirt she acquired on her person. "I'll come back soon." She promised to the grave. "Goodbye." With that she turned away and began walking back to her car. She didn't notice the black crow sitting on a branch above where she had been sitting that had been watching her since she arrived to the graveyard. After she disappeared, the crow gave a caw and took flight, flying away.

Okay. Let me know what you think or if you have any ideas of what should happen. I'm writing this as I post them, so if you want something specific to happen, just let me know and I'll see what I can do.

~Thanks~
