"I'll pick you up later." I said to Elena as she got out of the car.

She smiled.

"I'll be waiting." She replied.

I stopped her before she closed the door.

"Hey do you have something to wear?" I asked her.

She looked shocked by my asking but just shook her head.

"I was going to try and find something in the attic." She admitted.

"I have something that I think you might like." I told her.

She smiled and grabbed the necklace around her neck; she twirled it in her fingers.

"I love you." She told me.

"I love you too." I told her.

I drove fast the quicker I got home the quicker I could speak to Damon. I knew it from the moment he showed up here, he was here to ruin my life and hurt ones I loved. He was so selfish sometimes. But this was way past the line; he needed to stay away from Elena.

I burst through the door and there he was.

"Stefan." He greeted me.

I rolled my eyes.

"Cut to the chase Damon." I told him. "I know what your up to."

He gave the look like he had no idea.

"Stay away from Elena." I said, my eyes burning with fury.

He smiled and tilted his head.

"Stefan I'm not going to hurt her. The most I could do is compel her and drink her blood." He taunted me. It's like he was testing me to see how far I would go before being pushed over the ledge.

I glared at him with hatred in my eyes.

"Relax, I'm just kidding." He said.

"Damon I mean it stay away from her, I don't want you to have anything to do with her. The farther away you are the better things will be for her."

"Don't worry, me and Elena are friends, pals, maybe even best friends." He said emphasizing the word "best".

I could feel my rage getting out of control, I balled my hand into a fist and squeezed so tight I thought my bones where going to break skin.

"Damon I know how you feel about her. I knew from the very beginning. At first I thought you thought of her as some toy that you would use to play with my emotions and then be done with her. But when you saw the resemblance between her and Katherine, you had this look in your eye like you had found Katherine. When you kidnapped her and brought her along with you." I paused it hurt just thinking about it. "She saved your life and you knew that she felt something for you too. Then when my blood thirst got out of control she was there with you when I couldn't be. Damon history doesn't need to repeat itself." I told him firmly.

"I love Elena and you need to realize that she is nothing like Katherine, the complete opposite to be exact. She is not Katherine!" I explained to him.

He stood there, scotch in hand.

"No she's nothing like Katherine." He said taking a sip. " She's feistier." He commented.

"Damon I mean it. I know you're in love with her and I don't want her to go through this. Elena is with me!" I thundered.

He huffed to himself and I leaped.

I couldn't take it anymore; he only wanted her because I had her or the obvious she looked like Katherine.

I collided with Damon and we crashed to the ground. The glass of scotch shattered to the ground, tiny pieces of glass everywhere.

"Damit Damon I mean it stay away." I looked down at him.

"Jesus Stefan, we are friends and Elena can trust me. She is my BFF." He laughed.

I got up from on top of him, it was no use.

When he stood up he was wearing a suit.

"What is with the suit?" I asked.

"Oh its blast from the past night, I figured I should go check it out." He said.

I rolled my eyes and left the room.

Damon would stay away from her.
