What I Want Is You

Chapter 2 - Sweet Dreams, My Elena

.

"Hello? Who's out there?" A sweet voice called out. "Elena is that you? Are you out there?" It was Bonnie. Elena ran back to the door.

"Bonnie!" Elena squealed, as Bonnie did the same. "Wait what were you doing over there?" Bonnie asked, her eyes concerned. Elena felt her throat gasp for air. Her eyes grew wide. "Oh- umm It was nothing. I just..I thought I saw something." Elena said unsure of her self. Bonnie looked over to her friend like she could read right through her. "Really! I'm fine." Elena said and put on a fake smile.

"Well..alright. Come in." Bonnie said and smiled also.

The girls had been talking for hours about relationships, work, and other things that the both of them would have heard there parents talking about and thought it was lame when they were 15.

"So have you seen the town?" Bonnie asked. "Yeah. I saw some of it while I was driving by. It looks different but it still feels like home." Elena said with a warm smile. "Well I am just SO glad the work weeks almost over!" Bonnie said and let out a laugh. "God, you sound like were still in Highschool." Elena said remembering how every Friday after school; Elena had went home with Bonnie and they would throw a little 'End-Of-The-Week-Party' at her house.

"Well Ms Gibbon's homework was pretty harsh." Bonnie said. "True." Elena agreed. "Well hey, I can drive you around town...if you'd like?" Bonnie said. Elena thought about this. "Well, sure! Wait- do they still have the Mystic Falls..GRILL?" Elena asked and made her mouth the shape of an 'O'.

Bonnie grinned. "Still up and running." Elena gasped. "Wow. We have to go later today!" Elena begged. "Alright, well lets go; the weeks not just over yet. I still do have Friday." Bonnie said. Elena smiled,rolled her eyes, and grabbed her purse.

Elena had Bonnie had been to every inch of the town, now they were heading to there old high school. Bonnie slowly drove her car against the pavement, and put the car in park. Elena got out and just stood there for a moment smiling. "Wow..memories." Elena said with a grin on her face. Bonnie smiled to, and they both walked into the school. Thankfully, the students had a 'Teacher Planing' day.

Elena walked down the halls looking at all the pictures, classrooms...how the school had really changed. "I have been gone for to long." Elena said, and turned around to Bonnie. Elena's eye's dropped to the floor and the rest of her face saddened.

Bonnie looked uncomfortable in the awkward silence. Elena's eyes narrowed. Elena looked past Bonnie, where the dim-lighted halls were, and saw another shadow, as if someone were walking down a hall. 'Okay this has been the 3rd time this week! Who the hell is trying to mess with me?' Elena thought. Bonnie looked back to Elena to see her eyes looking troubled. "Hey, Elena...are you-alright?" Bonnie asked. Elena didn't even know Bonnie was speaking. Elena was to focused on the shadow.

Elena watched as the shadow slowly disappeared down the hall. "Oh no you don't...Your not getting away this time!" Elena said. "Elena...whaaat are you doing...?-" Bonnie asked slowly. Elena pounced off the ground and ran down the sleek hall. It's a good thing she took 'Track' here.

Elena slipped and tripped over her self but kept going until she reached the left hall, and finally; she did. And saw nothing. Elena looked behind her and in front of her again. And still nothing, no shadow, no person or student was to be seen. Elena looked to the ground and shaked her head.

Bonnie had finally reached Elena from the long run. "E-Elena! Wha-What are you doing?" Bonnie asked, her voice raggedy. Elena turned around to Bonnie; and started to laugh. Bonnie looked confused for a moment, but smiled widely and not to later also started laughing. Lets just say; it was one of those moments when someone didn't know what to say, so they filled it with laughter. Besides it was pretty funny, and stupid.

"Wow, Elena you haven't changed much. In high school you always put me and Matt on your little missions for you. And even if they were BEYOND crazy...we would help." Bonnie said and smiled. Elena walked down the hall and turned around. "We have been through so much through the very halls!" Elena said and grinned. "I mean we were never bored. There was an adventure every day in Mystic Falls!" Elena said, her voice excited. But what made Elena stopped smiling is what Bonnie said next.

Bonnie's face fell. There now was no smile, or no giggling voice. Just saddness, and a bit rage. "Mostly because of...them." Bonnie said. Directing 'them' to the 'Salvatore's'.

Elena stopped smiling to. Elena remembered about Bonnie's grandmother getting killed because of the spell Bonnie and her Grandmother had casted that night, when Damon was trying to rescue Katherine out of the tomb. Just to bad she was never in there.

"Bonnie. How are...they?" Elena asked. "I mean- how was Stefan when I left?" Elena asked. Bonnie pulled her head back up. "When you left to South Carolina- Elena -well Stefan left also." Bonnie said. Elena looked over to her friend confused.

"Stefan missed you Elena. He really did. But after you went away he said he was going to Italy. And thats the last I heard from him." Bonnie said. Elena didn't know if she could take this.

"And...Damon?" Elena asked; her voice hoarse. "A couple of weeks after Stefan left town, Damon disappeared." Bonnie said. "Which was a blessing." Bonnie whispered. Elena sighed. Bonnie would probably never get over the damage Stefan and Damon...mostly Damon, had caused to this town.

"Bonnie, I'm sorry about Grams." Elena said. Bonnie had always called her grandma, 'Grams' for some reason. Bonnie said nothing, her eyes still on the floor. "I blame them." Was all Bonnie said. Elena nodded. "I know."

For a while there was a long silence between the two girls. "Hey-umm. I'm going to get a few things from the store. Do you want me to get you anything?" Elena asked being the one to break the silence. Bonnie said nothing. Now Elena was getting mad. She walked past Bonnie and to the doors that exited the building. "Well, don't worry Bonnie. I will be gone by morning." Elena said just loud enough where Bonnie could hear it. And with that Elena was gone.

Since they had came here in Bonnie's car. The only way to leave was by walking. Which was just what Elena did. Elena ran down the road and felt a tear go down her cheek. 'How could she be mad at me?' Elena thought. Elena stopped in her tracks. She didn't really know why she was crying, but she just needed to. After all these years; she needed to let it all out.

She looked around and noticed she was walking towards Bonnie's house. Elena turned left and started down a different street. Elena knew where this path leaded. She could find her way down it with her eyes closed. It was Lauren St. Which lead to the Boarding House. Elena knew there was no point of going. Because no one was there.

But she was so used to going there. To get her head straight. To tell Stefan all her problems so he could fix them. But now there was no Stefan to comfort her and hold her in his arms. Elena felt her eyes well up again.

She could finally see the tip of the Boarding House now...now she was closer...and she was in front of it.

Elena stood on the pathway, just staring at the large house. Elena tried to move her legs, to just walk past the building. But her senses were screaming 'stay'. Elena moved each leg closer to the Boarding house.

One step at a time.

She was now in front of the double doors. Elena raised her hand slowly and knocked on one of the doors, three times.

Everything felt like it was going in slow motion. Time, feeling, movements. Thats because it probably was. Elena shook her head. 'Your so stupid Elena. There not here. They left...because you left them.' Elena told her self. Elena sighed and turned around to walk away, but stopped to hear both of the double doors slowly open.

Elena dearly wanted this day to be over. To wake up from this nightmare. Wake up! Just wake up! Just WAKE UP Elena!

"Hello?" A male voice asked. It was charming. But this couldn't be real. It just couldn't. Elena felt like a ticking time bomb. She could blow any second now. She turned around and slightly gasped. Elena stumbled backwards a few steps.

Damon Salvatore stood before her.

Damon's eyes were wide. Was he really seeing this? But he got back to his 'cool' soon enough. Damon smirked and propped his arm on the door frame.

"Why welcome, Miss. Elena." Damon said with a smirk.
