A couple of hours later
Elena was lying in Damon’s arms, when the door opened and Stefan and Katherine appeared in the doorway.
“Damon? Can I talk to you” Katherine asked careful. Damon nodded, but prevented Elena from leaving. “In private?”
“It’s okay, Damon” Elena sighed and she freed herself from his hold. “I’ll be back” she said with a faint smile. She walked away from the bed and followed Stefan outside.
“Elena, I’m sorry” Stefan said.
“Not now, Stefan” Elena said.
“Yes, now” Stefan said. “I know you hate me and you have every right to. You should hate me”
“Where are you heading at?” Elena asked.
“I know you like Damon” Stefan said and Elena could see it took him a lot of effort to admit it. “But I don’t want you to go to him because I’m a piece of worthless shit. I’m not feeling sorry for myself, but if you’re going to be with my brother, it has to be because you love him and not because you hate me”
Stefan left Elena in the living room to think about that.
In the meantime Katherine was trying to involve Damon into her vengeful plans.
“I don’t get you, Damon” she said frustrated. “She tried to kill you when you couldn’t defend yourself. She tried to separate you from Elena”
“It’s over now” Damon said. “She’s no treat anymore”
“You think so?” Katherine raised her eyebrows. “Who says that as soon as she wakes up she won’t try it again?...She will come back and finish the job”
Damon shook his head, trying not to let Katherine get to him.
“She’s weak now” Katherine said. “If you’re ever going to get back at her, now’s the time”
“I can’t do it” Damon said, sounding not very convincing.
“Do it for Elena” Katherine said. “Bonnie played her only because she has a deep bond with you”
Elena walked through the hallway and headed back to Damon’s room. She opened the door and looked shocked in the empty room. She noticed the window being open.
“Stefan?!” she yelled as she ran through the hallway.

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.
“Bonnie” Bonnie said.
