DPOV
He was at the grill, having a drink with Ric. "Stefan's in love with Caroline" He told a shocked Ric.
"Really?" He asked.
"Yep he said popping the P I thought he'd stuffed it up before it even got started, but thanks to Elena he finally got it together" He said with a smirk.
He was just taking a sip of his drink when he felt a sudden and sharp stab of pain in his chest. His drink fell from his fingers and he felt a sudden and overwhelming feeling of loss. He could hear Ric vaguely calling his name, but he was trying hard to breathe, and a single word kept echoing in his head Elena. He knew without a doubt she was gone, he didn't know how he knew, he just did.
"Elena" He whispered brokenly, then he was gone.
RPOV
He sat there staring at the stool that Damon had occupied not two seconds before, he had a sinking feeling in his gut. The total agony he had heard in that single word he'd whispered, let Ric know that something had happened to Elena. He took out his phone, and waited for it to be answered.
"Bonnie, it's Ric get Jeremy to the boarding house, i'm going to get Jenna. Somethings happened to Elena" He said telling her what had happened with Damon.
"OMG, we'll be right over" Bonnie told him.
DPOV
He felt pain down to his soul, whatever connection he had with Elena was so strong that he somehow knew that she was gone he could feel it. Suddenly he stopped "Shit" He muttered as he remembered last night.
Flashback
They were laying on his bed talking when suddenly she sat up and asked a question that surprised him.
"Tell me about blood sharing" She demanded.
"How do you know about that?" He asked surprised.
She frowned and thought for a moment before answering "I don't know, it just popped into my head" She answered.
"If it's done with care, both taking and receiving can be pleasurable" He told her.
She surprised him when she asked "Can we try it?"
"I don't know Elena" He said hesitantly .
"Please, I really would like to, I love you and I want to share everything with you" She told him.
"If we do this, my bloody will be in your system. We'd have to be careful until it leaves your system" He told her.
"Oh please, nothing's going to happen to me. Like you'd let it" She scoffed.
He pulled her into his arms and hugged her, he couldn't get over how much faith she had in him.
"Damn right i'm not" He whispered.
"So there won't be a problem, please Damon" She pleaded.
He knew there was no way he could refuse her anything. "Ok, but we do it slowly and we do it right" He told her.
End Flashback
He knew that he was going to get her back and for the most part he rejoiced in that fact, but he also knew she didn't want to be a vampire. And it might be he'd lose her after all. He knew that if someone was responsible for this, he was going to kill them. He saw Elena's body laying beside her car in front of the boarding house, he bent down and gently picked her up, he stiffened when he realised that her neck had been broken. It hadn't been an accident someone had killed her. He felt a murderous rage go through him, whoever had done this was going to pay, he'd make sure of it. He made his way inside and laid her on the couch in the parlour.
"Omg Elena, what happened?" Caroline asked rushing to Elena's side.
"I found her out by her car, someone snapped her neck" He said sadly.
"She's dead!" Caroline sheirked.
"What the hell happened?" Stefan asked coming into the room.
"She dead" Wailed Caroline burying her head in Stefan's neck.
"What?" He stammered putting his arms around Caroline trying to calm her.
Ric arrived with Jenna, with Bonnie and Jeremy not far behind them.
"Elena, what's happened to her?" Jenna asked.
"Someone broke her neck" Caroline whispered brokenly.
Then everyone started talking at once,they were all upset and coping in their own way.
"Damon" Bonnie whispered putting a hand on his shoulder trying to comfort him.
"I have something to tell you, which some of you might not like" He told them.
"What?" They all asked at once.
"Last night, Elena and I well we did blood sharing" He whispered.
He didn't have long to wait before everyone again started talking at once.
"Omg" From Bonnie.
"Elena" Whispered Caroline.
"Oh" Said Jenna.
"A vampire" Whispered Jeremy.
Stefan and Ric were the only ones that didn't have anything to say.
"What am I supposed to do, I can't lose her. But she doesn't want to be a vampire" He whispered brokenly. Everyone in the room felt his agony.
"Maybe you should wait until she wakes up and find out what she wants to do" Bonnie said.
"God, what if she wakes up and doesn't want to be, I can't just watch her die. He whispered then taking a breath and which one of you wants to be the one to kill her?" He asked shocking them all.
"I think you'll be surprised Damon, she loves you" Bonnie said.
"How long till she wakes up?" Jeremy asked.
"Should be anytime soon" Damon answered.
They all waited in silence for another ten minutes, when Elena suddenly sat up with a jerk. Looking around wildly, making them all jump.
"Elena" Damon whispered. Reaching out and pulling her into his arms.
"Damon what happened?" She asked.
"Whats the last thing you remember ?" He asked her.
She thought for a moment "Kathrine she gasped omg she killed me" She whispered.
"Yes" Damon said.
"Then how am I alive?" She asked.
"Do you remember last night?" He asked her.
He watched her face waiting for when she realised what he was talking about, she frowned concerntrating on trying to remember then her eyes widened and a look of horror crossed her face.
"I'm a vampire" She said in shock.
"Yes, baby listen to me, I know you don't want to be a vampire, and you don't have to. Not if you don't want too, you don't have to feed" He told her it's the hardest thing he's ever had to say.
"Then i'll die" She said.
"Yes" He answered.
"Then you'll be here all alone"She whispered.
"You don't need to worry about me baby" He told her, he had no intention of being in a world where she wasn't. But he didn't need to tell her that.
EPOV
When she'd woken up and realised that she was a vampire, yes she admits she had a moment of horror. She'd never wanted to live forever, well that is until she realised that she loved Damon. As she looked at him she realised that if she chose to die, he wouldn't be far behind her. She could see it in his eyes, he wasn't going to live without her. But now it was crunch time and she knew she wasn't ready to die yet. She hadn't spent enough time with him, and her family how could she choose to die and leave them. She wasn't sure if not feeding and dying would be painful, tho if it was she couldn't put her family through that. Because she knows that not one of them would leave her till the end. She also knew that not one of them would be able to put a stake throught her heart to save her from suffering. But most of all she knew she couldn't leave him, a lifetime with him wouldn't be enough.
"I don't want to die" She whispered.
DPOV
He felt his whole body sag with releif, until that moment he hadn't realised how much he wanted her answer to be that. He wasn't afraid to die, he'd lived 146 years and even though he'd had girls in his life, it had been a lonely life until he met her. She was his reason for living, he'd rather die with her than spend etenity without her. He leaned his forhead against hers and whispered. "Thank you" then he kissed her.
EPOV
The one person she was worried about was Bonnie. She knew Bonnie was super pissed when Caroline was turned and it had taken her a while to accept her,she didn't want Bonnie to hater her for chosing this life. She looked at Bonnie and frowned.
"You don't hate me do you?" She asked her.
BPOV
She was shocked that Elena would ask her that, she was her best friend and even though she isn't thrilled that her two best friends were vampires, she realised that she didn't want them to be dead. She rushed forward and took Elena's hand.
"Elena no! Honestly, i'm not thrilled that you're a vampire but your my best friend and I don't want you to be dead" She said emotionly hugging her.
DPOV
He stiffened he could smell blood. It didn't bother him, but Elena was newly turned and hadn't had time to learn to control it. He realised it was coming from Bonnie and he had to get her away from Elena.
"Bonnie move away from Elena" He whispered.
"What? Why?" She asked not understanding.
"You're bleeding" He said.
He saw her look down at her hand, the palm hand a small nick in it where she had curled her fingernails into it. He saw understanding dawn on her face, as she slowly moved away from Elena. He was ready to grab her if she made a move towards Bonnie. And he was amazed when she just sat there seemingly not even aware of the smell of blood.
"Elena, are you hungry?" He asked her.
"Yes, i'm starving actually" She said.
He looked at Stefan and saw that he had the same identical amazed look on his face that he knew must be on his.
"I don't understand" Stefan whispered.
"What?" Caroline asked.
" You remember when you first woke up, how hungry you were?" Stefan asked her.
"Yes, it was so hard to control myself" She answered.
"And the smell of blood made it impossible to resist" Stefan said.
"Yea, but what's that..." she trailed off suddenly comprehending what he was saying.
"What? Let us non vampires in on the secert" Bonnie demanded.
"Bloodlust, when you're newly turned even the smell of blood is enough to send you into a frenzy. But even though Elena's starving the smell of blood hasn't affected her" Damon explained.
"Maybe Bonnie's blood's bad" Jeremy joked which surprised a laugh out of them all.
"I'll take her and get her a blood bag" He told the others leading her out of the room.
Once in the basement he handed her a bag and was shocked when she only sipped the blood.
"Something is real weird here" He told her.
"What do you mean?" She asked.
"Well you heard what we said, the smell of blood should by all rights send you into a frenzy. But it's not, it's like you have control over it, which has taken me 146 years to master" He told her.
"I don't know what to tell you, I can't explain it" She said.
"Baby, do you know what Kathrine did this?" He asked.
"Yes, she's mad" She answered.
"We knew that, but why kill you? He said with a laugh.
"No, I mean she's decided that it's you she wants and she needed me out of the way" She said with a snarl.
"You're right she is mad, like i'd ever give her a second look" He scoffed.
"Im going to kill her" She stated.
"Baby, don't worry about her, you know theres no way you could kill her. She's older and stronger than you are, you'll end up dead if you try" He said.
"Damon, you weren't planning to go on living if i'd decided not to feed, were you?" She asked him.
"I love you baby, I couldn't even think about going on without you" He told her honestly.
"I love you too, and I couldn't imagine being anywhere without you" She said.
"Now we get to spend etenity together" He said.
"Etenity's not nearly long enough" She told him
"Come on we'd better tell the others about Kathrine" He said.
Everyone agreed that they all had to be on guard where Kathrine was concerned.
A few days later...
DPOV
He was just coming down the stairs when he spotted Kathrine.
"What are you doing here? Your not welcome here" He snapped.
"I was just in the neighbourhood" She pured.
"Well you can just leave" He said moving to the kitchen to avoid her.
KPOV
She thought she'd find him wollowing in alcohol, looking at him she didn't expect to find him still his old snappish self. She wondered what was going on she could have sworn that that they were madly in love, but he was acting like he wasn't bothered by the loss of his love.
"Where's Stefan?" She asked not really caring.
"Upstairs with Caroline like it's any of your business" He snapped.
She glanced up when someone entered the kitchen and would have had a heart attack if her heart had of still been beating. As she watched Elena walk in.
"What the hell are you doing here, you're not welcome" Elena snarled.
"Yes Kathrine it's Elena" Damon said with a smirk.
"But how?" She stammered.
"If you must know, the night before you killed her, we did blood sharing" He smirked again.
Then without warning Elena blured over to her and pined her against the wall her feet dangling off the floor. And try as she might she just couldn't remove Elena's hand from her throat. For the first time in her undead life, she feared for it.
"You! listen up bitch, Damon's mine I love him and he loves me, if you know what's good for you, you'll get out of Mystic Falls and stay out. Because if I ever see you again i'll kill you. Do you understand me?" Elena snarled.
She couldn't say anything because of Elena's hold on her throat so she just nodded. And as soon as Elena released her grip she was gone.
DPOV
He stood there in shock staring at the scene before him, he couldn't believe what he was seeing. He could see Kathrine struggling to get away, but all her attempts were in vain. Elena held her against the wall like it was no trouble at all. He was speechless which didn't happen to him often. When Elena realeased her grip Kathrine didn't waste any time in disappearing.
"What the hell was that?" He asked shocked.
"I don't know, I was angry, she killed me so she could get her slutty hands on you, I wanted to kill her" She said.
"But you shouldn't have been able to hold her like that. She was trying her hardest to get away, you're newly turned, you shouldn't have the strength to go against her shes way older" He replied amazed.
"I don't know, what's wrong with me?" She whispered suddenly afraid.
He took her in his arms and kissed the top of her head "It's ok baby, we'll figure it out" He soothed her.
