DPOV.
Elena and I laid there after we'd shared blood. She was than scotch, better than any other blood I'd ever tasted. She'd never done that with Stefan, which made me happy.
"What can we do?" She asked a while later.
"About what?"
"Your father. If he did this..." She ran her fingers across the bandages on my stomach. "Imagine what else he could do! We have to do something."
"I don't want to." I sighed. "Well, I suppose we could talk to the witch who brought him back."
'And you think she'll help?"
"No, I think she'll curse fire upon me." Elena swatted my chest playfully and I smiled.
"We have to do something!" She said. She sat up and looked down at me. "We can't just lay up here a hide."
"Why? I wouldn't mind laying up here in this warm soft bed all day with you." I said, leaning up to kiss her. She pushed me back down.
"I'm not playing around, Damon! We have to do something!" Her voice dropped to a whisper, "Before he kills you."
"Fine!" I groaned, getting up. "Can I have my shirt back? I want to go home and change."
Elena took my shirt off and handed it to me.
"Text me when you get there, and when you're ready. If anything happens-"
"You'll be the first to know." I promised, kissing her. Then I left through the window.
I moved as fast as I could in the house. I ran up the stairs, checked my room to make sure it was empty. It was. I locked my door and sent Elena a text. I pulled out some more clothes and put them on. I sent another message and left through my window, leaving my door locked.
Elena was sitting on her porch, waiting. She was wearing a red tank top and dark wash jeans. She was beautiful.
"Ready?" She asked, standing up. I sighed and put my arm around her shoulders.
"As I'll ever be."
We walked to Bonnie's house in silence. I'd tried to get er to talk a few times andonly got short answers. I gave up A few people looked shocked at our PDA, my arm around her, they hadn't heard about she and Stefan break up yet. I saw the town gossip, Hattie, in her kitchen, giving the scoop to her friend, who'd pass it on.
When we got to Bonnies house, Elena shrugged my arm off and put a little space between us. I frowned. She knocked and Bonnie answered a minute later. She saw me and went toclose the door.
"Bonnie, Please!" Elena said. "Please!" Bonnie stopped and looked at her.
"What?" Bonnie said, I moved forward, not liking her tone.
"You have to undo that spell, Bonnie. That man is dangerous!"
"He seemed nice to me. Better than him." She jerked her head my way. Elena didn't try to defend me.
"He's not! Bonnie, let us in and we'll show you!" Bonnie shook her ehad and closed the door.
"Bonnie!" Elena yelled. After a second we left. I didn't try to put my arm around her. I was thinking hard. Once we got back to her house I asked the only thing on my mind.
"Are you serious about us, Elena?" I asked
"What?" She asked. "Yes, of course I am. I love you!"
"Then why did you push me away at Bonnie's? Why didn't you defend me?"
"Because it wouldn't have helped!" She yelled
"Be cause you didn't want you best friend to know!" I yelled back.
"So?"
"So, what's the point?" I asked. "If we have to keep it a secret, then I'm done!" Elena didn't say anything. I turned and walked out of the house, leaving my heart behind.
