I looked over at Elena remembering last night. Poor girl. Still i couldn't get over the fact that it was Elena in my bed last night and i did nothing.
I was somewhat surprised.
Either way the necklace had to go.
I looked over at her. She was obviously trying to remember what happened. I smiled to myself.
She still had the necklace hung around her neck and she was tugging at it.
I rolled my eyes.
I heard noise outside; Stefan was home.
He walked in and went directly over to Elena.
I grabbed the bottle of scotch and started to head out the door, until I realized that I didn't have my ring, so I settled to go to my room.
"Hey." I said to him. "Where were you?"
"I was hungry." He said with a grin.
I smiled.
"So what do you want to do today?" he asked.
"Well I was planning on going to check on Jeremy." I said. "I kind of left him there with John and I want to make sure things are fine." He looked concerned. "You can come if you want." I said.
He shook his head.
"No he's your brother and you should talk to him." He said. "And I don't think he will want to talk with me there." He smiled.
"True." I said.
He smiled and leaned down to kiss me.
He grabbed my neck and I ran my hands through his hair. He grabbed my hands and held them.
Suddenly he pulled away.
I looked at him questioningly.
He looked down and my eyes followed down with his.
There was a purple sticker on his hand from where he held mine.
Damon's ring was there on my finger, nothing was covering it now and he noticed.
"Why are you wearing Damon's ring?" he asked.
I started to speak but nothing came out.
"Because it's the only thing that keeps her safe." Damon said from behind Stefan. He was leaning up against the wall with his glass in his hand. He set it down and walked closer.
"What do you mean keep her safe?" Stefan asked.
"Katherine has been getting to Elena." Damon said. "And by getting to I mean she has been controlling Elena by invading her body. The necklace that used to be Katherine's is what's doing it." He explained.
Stefan looked at me and I nodded.
"Then why are you wearing it?" he asked.
"Because I didn't want you to think there was anything wrong." I said.
"Elena you can tell me anything." He said.
I nodded my head but kept quiet.
"We have to do something." Damon said. "She wants to get to us through Elena."
"So we see her?" Stefan asked.
"It's the only way." Damon replied.
"Wait your going to see her?" I asked.
Stefan nodded.
"And you're going to stay here when we do." Damon added.
Stefan looked at Damon. I could tell there was tension.
"The hell I am." I said. "I'm not going to let you two go see her without me being there. She has been taking over my body and I have the right to see her face to face." I said.
"Well if you want that you can just look in the mirror." Damon said.
I rolled my eyes at him.
"Elena you can't be there without protection." Stefan said.
"Look I gave her my ring to keep her safe it was the only thing I could think of." Damon said.
Stefan's jaw tightened.
I started to slip the ring off my finger.
"No." Damon shouted, placing his hand on mine. "Keep it on."
I looked at him for a minute and then nodded my head.
Stefan seemed angry.
"How are we going to get to her?" I asked.
They were quiet while they thought.
Finally Damon looked up.
"I know where we can find her." Damon said.
