Elena let a tear run down her face, not noticing Stefan standing at the door watching the scene before him. He didn't know what to do. After everything that has happened he didn't expect this to happen. Stefan had to wonder if Katherine got to him or if Damon was having second thoughts. Stefan turned to leave before Elena called his name. "Yes?"
"There is vervain in the blood. He was trying to kill himself!" Elena sobbed out to Stefan. Stefan just shook his head and held Elena in his arms as she cried.
After a few moments of sobs and silence, Stefan looked down to see Elena just staring off at Damon. "How about we get something to eat? You can't stay cooped up here all day. I'll go out of town to a blood bank to get some blood for him. Just eat something." Elena took a deep breathe and walked over to Damon. She caressed his face and pushed a slight hair from his forehead. This felt like deja vu to her. She kissed his forehead and followed Stefan to the car to go eat at the grill.
Stefan tried to keep conversation with Elena as they sat through their meal but Elena didn't feel like talking. She just sat and picked at her food. "Is something going to happen to Damon?" Stefan put his fork down next to his plate and crossed his hands.
"I don't know Elena. There was a lot of vervain in the blood. I mean, it only weakens us. I promise you, I will get him blood to give him his strength back. But, do you have any idea why he did it?" Elena looked at him confused and thought of the previous nights events.
"All I remember is he came over to give me my necklace back and with a blink he was gone. I would like to know why myself, this is out of character for him." Stefan nodded in agreement.
After the silent dinner, Stefan dropped Elena off at the boarding house. "I'm going to go get some blood. Stay here and keep an eye on Damon and if anything, call me." Elena nodded and walked up the stairs to Damon's room. When she opened the door, Damon was on the bed, awake.
"Damon?"
"Katherine, help me."
