It's a beautiful day in Georgia, as I drive my car. Elena is in the passenger seat.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLg3l1tqLN
When Elena awakes, she realizes we're not in Mystic Falls anymore, because she asks me, "Where are we?"521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyQ6fqlp5J
"Georgia," I reply.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRM5s6pcxOj
"Take me back to Mystic Falls, Damon," she orders.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1E8nfY6uk
I knew she'd act this way, but I had to keep her safe. Plus, I was on my way to taking a trip here to see some old friends, anyway. That, and I knew it would piss Stefan off. So she's with me.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8eiokB42f
"No can do," I reply to her.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVaYgKgoJ8
"Damon," she warns me.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQ42IByERZ
Her phone goes off and I take it from her. It's Stefan, so I answer it, while driving.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7CCsgtDLW
"Hello, Stefan."521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBpvMyHJ19
"Damon, where's Elena?"521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWawUn3Z8jK
"Right here."521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpOtikuvvW
"Bring her home," he orders.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSpUHYaYbz
I tell him that I can't and I know he's pissed off, but I don't really care right now. Elena is my priority, as well as this first round trip.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxsu02wesJ
I hang up on him and give the phone back to her.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9MvsrB0v7
When I pull over, we get out of the car. Elena gets out slowly and acts like she's in pain, which I know she is a little. I'm a vampire, so I can sense pain. So, at vampire speed, I go to stand by her.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lOoSKsrlS
I look into her eyes.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1OHu54hse
"Are you okay?" I ask.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfyzA7KPzN
"I'm fine."521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QrJDZVSUm
I know that's a fib, since I sense her pain, but Elena can be stubborn and I don't blame her for not liking me much. I've done a lot of awful things since I arrived in Mystic Falls. But I wouldn't hurt Elena. I would protect her with my life, because I love her, though I would never admit it out loud.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9x2WVS0o2
We arrive at a bar and I introduce her to an old friend whom owns the bar. She makes us a meal and we eat. Then Elena gets a call from Bonnie, I don't know what about, and she walks off to speak to her. Then, a few minutes later, my friends asks me, "Where did your friend go?" I realize it's been too long that she has been gone, so I go to investigate. I go out the back where the door is open and see her cell phone there. So I go in search of her.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZcDLIefFy
When I find her at an abandoned sewer plant, Elena yells at me, "Damon, no!" Then I'm attacked from behind by a vampire with a bat. I'm in pain from him hitting me repeatedly with the bat.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO90OhyRTzp
I look up at him.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNfuhxskSn
"You killed my girlfriend," he tells me.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8bKzvZTh2
"Oh, yeah. She was delicious," I reply through the pain. Then he throws gasoline all over me, before lighting a match.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1O5aKEPfG
"You're going to pay," he tells me.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeYUhVHFrT
Before he can throw it down, Elena stands a distance behind him and says, "Please."521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgQ2KmNawl
He turns to look at her and she says, "Please, don't hurt him!" she says.
The next day, I drive back to Mystic Falls with her.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMxwzxM39s
"I saved your life," she announces.521Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhSTUlmaYs
"I know," I reply with a smirk.
"And don't you forget it," she replies to me.
