Dear Diary,

Damon and I spent the entire summer searching for Stefan and Klaus.

I feel so lost without Stefan, Jenna, and even John in my life. I have Jeremy and the others, but...

Why does he want Stefan?

He completed his ritual; he's got everything thing he wants. Why does he need Stefan?

How could Elijah betray us?

I never thought I'd say this, but thank god for Damon. He has been my rock through this...

Mrs. Higginbotham came by; she dropped off food Bella made. Jer and Alaric boasted that she is a great cook.

I'm unsure I want Bella to be a part of my life.

I mean, she knows about this stuff, and due to her inability to be compelled, we can't make her forget about everything.

I do not want her in my life as a sister, and I don't want her as a friend; hell, I don't even want her as a neighbor.
