Alone
Chapter: 14
Elena's POV:
I felt his fangs retract into my wrist. I let out a sigh of relief as I felt my blood being drawn willing. I was saving his life or at least I hope I was. After a few minutes, I could feel my heartbeat slow and my vision began to blur. "Damon please stop." I begged weakly but still nothing.
Stefan's POV:
I finally killed Quinn. I turned to Elena and saw that her skin was turning paler by the second and her heartbeat was slowing. Damon was taking her life without knowing it. I ran to her side and pulled Damon from her wrist. "Stefan stop, he needs it!" She tried to yell but it only came out as a whisper.
Those words felt like a stake through my heart. She was willing to give up her life for my selfish brother. I don't understand what went on between them while I was gone but I knew she loved him.
Damon was now standing in front of me but he was still very weak. We both took a glance over towards Elena as she feel to the ground. Using vampire speed, I was at her side in a milla second, Damon a minute behind. "What's wrong with her?" He asked, his voice trying to hold no emotion.
"Blood loss." I could feel everything around us grow silent, Damon anger was rising.
"Who?"
He really didn't remember drinking Elena's blood. I sighed and decided to tell him. "You, she gave you her blood, I got you off of her in time before you killed her. She needs to rest now." I saw an unusual emotion flicker across Damon's face, if I didn't know better I would I said it was remorse.
He buried his head in his hands. Then, I knew it wasn't just Elena who loved him but he loved Elena.
"My ring." Damon shouted abruptly.
"What about your ring?"
"It's gone." Damon got up and began to search around were he was lying.
Before I helped Damon search, I had to give Elena some blood to help her. I bit into my wrist, held the now bleeding wound above her mouth, and let the blood trickle in. When I felt satisfied that she had enough to speed up her recovery a little I let the healing process take over for both Elena and myself.
I joined Damon in the search for his ring. Why do I care, I thought to myself as I searched nearby bushes and shrubs. He is taking the one person that I love. No matter how I look at it, he is my brother; if he is the one that will make Elena happy then I should be happy to.
The black of the sky has begun to change to grey, the sun wasn't far off and there was still no sign of Damon's ring. "Go home Damon!" I order, I knew he was probably going to fight me on this but, let him.
Without saying a word, Damon ran into the woods. I stared after him shocked and confused.
I heard Elena stir behind me, I ran to her side in a second. "Stefan, where's Damon?" She asked weakly.
"At home, his ring is missing."
Many emotions flashed across her face in a minute. "The person who did this, where is he?" She asked sounding positive about something.
"Gone, I-" I paused for a minute deciding whether to tell her what I did to Quinn. "I staked him." I told her the truth.
"Where is he?"
"I couldn't get dispose of him yet, Damon was-" I was trying to explain but she interrupted.
"Stefan I need to know because I believe he has the ring. It is what the letter said, where the sun will take the life, he wanted to take Damon's ring and let the sun kill him while he felt like the stakes were killing him." I nodded and took her over to where I left Quinn's body. She franticly searched through all his pockets but found nothing.
Something caught my eye glistening in the rising sun. Something on Quinn's hand, I walked over and knelt down it was Damon's ring. "Elena, I found it." I called to her; she was still searching through Quinn's pockets.
She looked up and I showed her the ring that I was holding. She walked over and I handed it to her. "Thank you." She mouthed, safely putting the ring in her pocket.
The sun had just past the trees and was casting rays on the ground below. "Stay here." I told Elena as drug Quinn's lifeless body farther into the rays of the sun.
