“Open the door now, Stefan! I need to talk to my sister!”
Stefan opened the door after Jeremy had banged it about twelve times.
“Alright, alright, don’t get all up tied” Stefan said as he opened the door, a blood bag in his hand. “Now, what brings you here? Something about Elena, I assume?”
“I need to talk to her” Jeremy repeated. “And you know why”
Stefan shrugged. “Why didn’t you come here last night?”
“Because I knew Elena wasn’t here. I knew she was with Alaric and her friends, I didn’t want to make a scene” Jeremy explained.
“And you were also chicken that either Katherine or I would rip you into little pieces” Stefan added.
“Can I just talk to my sister, already?” Jeremy said annoyed.
Stefan made an inviting move with his hand. “Check the rooms”
Jeremy walked inside and went upstairs, when Damon came his way. “What are you up to?” he asked without even looking at Jeremy. “I’m going to my sister. You’d be really helpful if you’d tell me where to find her” Damon grabbed Jeremy’s shirt. “Bad idea, lil’ bro. She’s not in the mood to hear any preaches”
“Damon, let go of him” Elena had appeared on top of the stairs. “I’ll talk to him”
Damon let go of him, but still looked at him threatening. “Don’t upset her”
He step aside to let Jeremy pass, but he himself just stayed where he was.
“Why didn’t you tell me a vampire attacked you and brought you to Klaus?” Jeremy asked angry.
Elena pulled her shoulders and played with her nails.
“Who told you that?” Damon asked. “Ric?”
“No, not Ric, though I thought he would’ve” Jeremy said still looking at Elena. “You thought I wouldn’t find out? You thought I’m just a little kid who doesn’t know a damn thing about anything?”
“No, Jeremy, that’s not how it’s like” Elena said quickly. “I wanted to tell you, but…”
“You were waiting for the right time?” Jeremy hissed.
“No, she just needed a break” Damon came in between. “She almost got killed by Klaus, she was this close to being werewolf food, so please give her the time of day for not considering your delicate marshmallow feelings”
“You know what, Elena?” Jeremy said trembling. “From now on you can fix your own problems”
“That’s what she always does, moron” Damon defended Elena. Jeremy turned around and ran out of the house.
“Jeremy, wait!” Elena shouted, but he ignored her. “He hates me” Elena said sad.
“He’ll come around” Damon assured her. “You hated me, too and look where we are now”
“Don’t get too cocky” Stefan said from beneath.
“You still here? I thought you left already, like to some other place in this house” Damon said looking at Stefan like he was shit.
“Are you kidding me?” Stefan said sarcastic. “I’m enjoying this way too much”

Elena and Bonnie were sitting outside the Grill, both having a lemonade, when both their phones rang.
“Bonnie” Bonnie said.
“Hello, Elena speaking” Elena said, trying not to give away anything and hoping Bonnie would be too caught up in her own conversation.
“It’s time” Damon said. “Meet me at the Boarding House. I’ll be in the car” He ended the conversation.
And so did Bonnie. “Elena, I’m so sorry, but I have to go” she apologized.
“Oh?” Elena said sheepish.
“Yeah, I’m having a date tonight” Bonnie blushed.
“Really? That’s great! Who’s the lucky one?” Elena fired her curiosity.
“Ehm, I rather not say. At least not until it’s official” Bonnie said.
“Of course, I get it” Elena said. Bonnie put some money on the table. “See you tomorrow?”
“Yeah, tell me all that happened” Elena waved as Bonnie walked away. The moment she was gone Elena jumped up and ran away as if she was being chased.

Elena took a deep breath and started running down the hill. However, the grass on the hill started growing really fast and pushed Elena back. Elena angry pushed the grass away and came halfway the hill.
Then the earth started shaking and Elena rolled down.
The road that led to the open field cracked open and Elena’s feet got stuck in one of the cracks.
“Ha, damn it!” she cursed and she pulled her leg, but she couldn’t move it. The crack grew bigger and soon she fell in a whole. A deep one.
She looked up and saw how the crack slowly closed again.
“Elena”
Elena grabbed the wall which was raw and cut her hands open, but she didn’t care. With a fierce determination she climbed up and out of the crack. She crawled away from the crack, dodged the other cracks and reached the open field.
