It's a beautiful day in Georgia, as I drive my car. Elena is in the passenger seat.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohDoBv5jaO
When Elena awakes, she realizes we're not in Mystic Falls anymore, because she asks me, "Where are we?"545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjjMpnCcp7
"Georgia," I reply.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAMRjpnfqX
"Take me back to Mystic Falls, Damon," she orders.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMv8rhpctw
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.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqmsVvPlXM
"No can do," I reply to her.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdI6EtKtEX
"Damon," she warns me.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoeaZpfVXT
Her phone goes off and I take it from her. It's Stefan, so I answer it, while driving.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0csMxUHi0
"Hello, Stefan."545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKqRxsSCGE
"Damon, where's Elena?"545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKM85b9Zws
"Right here."545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhUu4TlamE
"Bring her home," he orders.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCzW5buKHb
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.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ykfIulKBK
I hang up on him and give the phone back to her.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8hfHNjcMY
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.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOIV3WXwVd
I look into her eyes.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTHhbzQDHJ
"Are you okay?" I ask.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVY8Sm1so2b
"I'm fine."545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5JxUChx3l
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.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcibJ99ev4A
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.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkb1SgR4qF
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.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFfuXGkOWa
I look up at him.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfvN0DtlLb
"You killed my girlfriend," he tells me.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMGCZhx42E
"Oh, yeah. She was delicious," I reply through the pain. Then he throws gasoline all over me, before lighting a match.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcQmqTC3dh
"You're going to pay," he tells me.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zCwJSyt56
Before he can throw it down, Elena stands a distance behind him and says, "Please."545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpvKbVzR5X
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.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDPGrPEJ0G
"I saved your life," she announces.545Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzihCZ2ymI
"I know," I reply with a smirk.
"And don't you forget it," she replies to me.
