DPOV
He was just pouring himself another drink when he heard Elena scream. He shot upstairs at vampire speed and kicked the door to Stefan's room wide open. What he saw would have given him a heart attack if his heart had still been beating. Stefan had Elena and he was sucking the life from her. He warped over to Stefan and shoved him away from Elena.
"Get the hell away from her" He snarled.
He knelt beside her and helped her up from where she had fallen when he pushed Stefan away from her.
"Elena are you okay?" He asked softly.
"Yea, he didn't take much" She said.
He heard Stefan move behind him and turned as he made a leap at Elena, he pushed her away and grabbed Stefan.
"Stefan, what the hell is wrong with you. It's Elena" He yelled.
Suddenly the veins under his eyes subsided and his fangs disappeared.
"My god Elena, I'm so sorry" Stefan whispered.
He rushed over to Elena who laid limply on the floor. There was blood on the side of her head where she'd hit the wall when he'd flung her away from Stefan. He bit into his wrist and gave her some of his blood, the wound on her head and neck started to heal, but she didn't wake up.
"Elena, come on babe wake up" He whispered.
"Why isn't she waking up? Stefan asked.
"I don't know" He said.
"I think we should take her to the hospital" Stefan said.
"You're not taking her anywhere, stay the hell away from her" He snapped at Stefan.
"She's my girlfriend" Stefan whispered angrily.
"You lost that right when you abandoned her and tried to kill her" He snarled.
"I wouldn't have killed her" Stefan whispered.
"Yes, Stefan, you would have, If I hadn't been here she would be dead by now" He said.
Stefan seemed to lose any colour he might have had and fled the room.
He turned back to Elena and picked her up, He rushed down the stairs and out the door he would get her to the hospital quicker if he ran. As He ran through the emergency doors he kept praying that she was ok.
"Someone please help me" He shouted as a orderly ran up to him with a trolley. He carefully laid her down.
"What happened here?" Asked a worried nurse.
"She fell and hit her head, and she won't wake up" He told her.
"How long ago?" She asked him.
"About 20 minutes ago" He answered.
He pushed a hand through his hair as they took her away. He thought he'd better call Jenna, he took his cell out and dialled her number. It was answered on the third ring.
"Hello" Jenna said.
"Jenna, its Damon" He said.
"Elena's not here" She told him.
"I know, Jenna I'm at the hospital, Elena's had an accident" He said.
"What! What kind of accident? Is she okay?" Jenna asked without letting him answer any of the questions.
"She fell and hit her head, she hasn't woken up yet" He told her.
"I'll be right there" She said hanging up.
He hung up and dialled another number.
"Hello?"
"Bonnie, It's Damon" He said.
"What do you want?" She snapped.
"I'm at the hospital, It's Elena she had an accident" He told her.
"Is she OK?" Bonnie asked.
"She fell and hit her head, and she's not waking up" he told her.
"Okay, I'll get Caroline and we'll be right there" She said.
"Okay" He replied.
He paced the waiting room, he didn't know what was going on and it was slowly driving him insane. It was Elena, his Elena the only one who had seen the good in him, the only one to worm her way into his heart and stay there. He can't lose her; He couldn't see his life without her in it, even if friends were all they'd ever be, it was better than nothing. Jenna had arrived five minutes earlier and she had tried to get someone to tell her what was going on. But all they would say is that the doctor was still with her. Just then Bonnie and Caroline rushed in.
"Jenna, how is she? Bonnie asked.
"I don't know, they aren't telling me anything" Jenna said.
Caroline sat down and hugged Jenna while Bonnie walked over to Damon.
"What the hell happened Damon?" Bonnie asked.
"It was my fault Bonnie" He whispered
"What was? Bonnie asked.
"I threw her against the wall" He said.
"You what?" Bonnie half screamed.
"She came over to get some books she left in Stefan's room, I was downstairs when I heard her scream. When I got upstairs Stefan was with her. He bit her Bonnie, if I hadn't been there he would have killed her" He told her.
"What? Why would he do that?" Bonnie asked shocked.
"He's not the same Stefan who left, he's on human blood, and he can't control it. Anyway when I knocked Stefan away from her she fell to the floor, when I helped her up Stefan went for her again. I pushed her out of the way, God Bonnie I never meant to hurt her, I just wanted to get her away from Stefan" He whispered brokenly.
"It's not your fault Damon, you were only trying to protect her" Bonnie told him.

She watched as Damon sat on one of the waiting room chairs; he put his head in his hands and said so softly that she almost missed it.
"I love her, i can't lose her"
Bonnie shivered with the amount of emotion she heard in his voice. She had only ever seen this side of him very rarely. Although she could see that he truly loved Elena. She sat down next to him and took his hand.
"Damon, listen to me, it wasn't your fault. The blame lies with Stefan" She told him.
"I would never hurt her, you believe me don't you?" He asked.
"I know, I can see you care about her" She said.
"When I first came here, my soul intention was to upset Stefan's life and free Katherine from the tomb. It was an obsession. Then I met Elena, at first it was just to piss Stefan off you know? But she wove her way into my heart before I even realised it." He whispered.
Bonnie had rarely seen the softer side of him, and now that she thought about it, it seems on those rare occasions when she did it always involved Elena. "He really does love her" She thought.
