Damon's POV.

The dance is coming to an end and there was no sign of Katherine. Elena comes rushing up to me with Stefan by her side, she looks worried. My eyes widen when she tells me that Jeremy left her a message saying he was on his way to the dance, that was two hours ago. Panic over powers me and the three of us rush to the boarding house.

We get to the house and I notice a cell lying on the ground. Elena gasps and starts crying, it's Jeremy's phone. For some reason I just knew Katherine was behind this, Stefan and Elena pissed her off and its the perfect way to get their attention. Typical Katherine. Stefan tries to calm Elena down, while I think of all the ways to kill the vampire bitch.

An hour later and Bonnie finally shows up, I threaten her to get the spell right or she will be sorry, the thought of that bitch hurting him turned my stomach. As she's doing the spell, Stefan's phone starts ringing. Elena and I stare at him as he answers the phone. It's Katherine.

"She wants the moonstone" My brother says while putting his cell back in his pocket.

"She can have it once Jeremy is home and safe!" Elena cries out.

"She doesn't play that way" I mutter.

"I don't care! I just want my brother back!" the Gilbert girl screams.

"Guys, I found her" Bonnie comes into the room. "She's in the tomb"

"Why would she go in the tomb if she can't get back out?" Elena asks confused.

"Because she knows one of us will go in to get him and little witch here will have to do a spell to get us back out" I snarl.

We enter the cave, to find Jeremy unconscious in the tomb, I run to him but Stefan stops me, as I wouldn't be able to get back out. Elena runs to his side and tries to wake him up. Before she could blink, Katherine grabs her and throws her back out of the tomb.

"Not so fast" she smiles "First the moonstone, then the spell then you get your brother back"

"Drastic measures just to get a rock, don't you think?" I say, trying my hardest not to go in there and kill her.

"The moonstone! Now!" she raises her voice.

Elena takes the stone of my brothers hands and hands it over to her shadow-self.

"That wasn't so hard was it? Now the spell and no tricks either or I'll snap his neck so fast you won't have the chance to blink!" Katherine threats.

Once Bonnie does the spell, Elena runs to Jeremy, taking him out of the tomb. As Katherine tries to leave, I grab her and take out the stake that was up my sleeve. But she was to fast and strong for me. She manges to escape my grip and grabs the stake out my hands. She's now behind Elena and Jeremy. And I watch her put the stake threw Jeremy's stomach. I scream. Katherine was gone and all of us were around him, Elena's screams stung my ears.

"Elena, listen to me. He's going to be fine" I try to calm her down.

"He's going to die Damon! How is that fine?" she snaps at me.

"Because I gave him my blood" I shout.

Elena looks at me in horror. "what? You gave him your blood? When?" she demands.

"This morning"

"I told you not to Damon" Stefan speaks.

"You knew he was going to turn my brother?" Elena looks at her boyfriend in disgust.

"I didn't think he would actually do it" Stefan says.

"We need to take him home" Elena states.

I pick up Jeremy's body and we all head out the cave.

Jeremy's POV.

I wake up to the blazing sun in my eyes and Elena at my bedside. All I can remember was being at the boarding house and seeing Katherine! I jump up and thought of her. Elena gently pushes me back on the bed to calm me down.

"What happened?" I demand.

"Katherine kidnapped you and when Damon attacked her because of it, she put a stake threw you" My sister whispered, her eyes were red and puffy. She must have been crying all night.

"Did I? Am I?" I ask quickly, remembering what I did the morning before.

"No, his blood healed you and you've been sleeping it off"

a huge part of me was happy at the thought of not being a vampire.

"Why did you do it Jere? Why did you drink his blood?"

"I don't know, seemed like a good idea at the time" I shrug.

I stare up at the sight of seeing Damon standing in the door frame. Elena takes the hint and walks out the room, I can see her giving Damon a dirty look as she leaves.

"If she didn't hate me before, she hates me now" he jokes.

He sits on the bed and starts stroking my cheek. I know it had only been a day since I last saw him, but I missed him and was so glad he was here.
