Chapter 3-
Damon's POV
The next few weeks passed by excruciatingly slow. Prom was a huge set back and was one of the most painful nights for me during my entire existence. To hear Elena say that what we had was nothing and that it was all the sire bond. She knew that that was my biggest insecurity. I always had my doubts about Elena's love for me and to hear her say that was like a shot to the head. It didn't make me feel any better that we had a psycho immortal vampire thing getting in my head and trying to steal away the cure for Elena. As the days passed by we saw less and less of Elena. Bonnie and I were looking for a way to help Elena until Elena almost killed Bonnie at prom, and than Bonnie stopped helping me. I guess she lost hope in Elena but I will never lose hope in her. The only plan that I've had so far is sedating Elena and I just can't bring myself to do it. I called all of Elena's weird little "mystical creature family" that she cared so damn much about, for an Elena intervention. Just as I was pouring myself a glass of bourbon, my least favorite quarterback walked in. He knows that I have never liked him and when he sees that he's the first one there he seems uncomfortable. I thoroughly enjoy making Matt Donovan squirm seeing that he destroyed Elena's life.
"Uhh first one here?" he looked around and faked a laugh
"You betcha… how fun." I give him a smirk and sit on the couch. After a couple moments of awkward silence, Matt finally spoke up
"Listen, I know you're kind of going through a rough time right now you know with the whole Elena thing and all but-"
"Get to the point Donovan." I really didn't want to any of his sympathy.
"But, she really did care about you Damon. The night she died... she was telling me how you made her feel alive and how you're loved consumed her. You can't listen to anything she says, she's not herself."
"Thanks but I don't really taking advice from a bus boy."
"Whatever man, I'm just trying to help."
"Last time I checked I didn't take help from the guy who killed my girlfriend but thanks."
"Damon, shut up." Stefan comes walking in with Caroline. Of course he has to always be the good guy. Like do you not get that this stupid punk basically killed the girl we both love?
"Oh look hero Stefan coming to the rescue."
"Guys, knock it off. We're not here to fight. We're here to talk about Elena."
"Where's Bonnie?" asked football boy
"Bonnie's not coming." Caroline looked down. The room went silent for a minute
"We can't do this without Bonnie we need her-" If Bonnie was against us we almost had no chance for Elena.
"I'm here." The door flew open and the young Bennett witch came walking in.
"Bonnie! You came!" Caroline squealed. I happened to look at Stefan at that exact moment and for a split second I saw admiration in his eyes… he was looking at Caroline… I know they had gotten close recently but I didn't realize just how close. I threw the thought away before I could think about it any longer.
"I'm not here for Elena; I'm here for my old best friend that I've known since childhood. I'm here for the Elena that died after she drowned on Wickery Bridge." I saw the guilt on Matt's face once again because although most of them had forgiven them, he would never forgive himself.
"Hello little witch." I smirked. I knew Bonnie wouldn't be able to not help Elena. She was hooked on her just like the rest of us. I was in fact in love with a hopeless case. I didn't care if she was a bitchy vampire with no emotions or even a werewolf for all I care I am so in love with her and I could never change that. I sometimes hate how attached I am to her. To think that she might not love me and I could be stuck for the rest of eternity miserable and in love with a girl who loved my brother. That might be the most possible thing in the world... unrequited love
"So what are we going to do?" Caroline asked
"Well I have a plan but I don't know how much you guys are going to like it."
"What are you going to do Damon?" Stefan asked
"The only thing we can do, Stefan, we need to lock Elena up."
