Elena lay in her bed, but it had taken Stefan two hours to reassure her Damon was alright.
“I brought him to Ric’s loft” he had said. “If I would’ve brought him here Bonnie would’ve found him in no time. You can go see him tomorrow. I promise”
“Where’s my phone?” she asked shaking. “I want to call him. I want to hear him say he’s okay"
Stefan gave Elena’s phone and she dialed Damon’s number. It went straight to voicemail. “He’s not picking up” Elena said scared. “Something happened”
Stefan took her by her shoulders. “Elena, his phone is probably dead and all this running must’ve tired him. Give him a break. Call him tomorrow”
Elena ignored Stefan and dialed Alaric’s number. Sure he would answer. But he didn’t. “Alaric’s not picking up his phone either. Why is that?”
“Maybe because it’s night and people usually sleep over night?” Stefan said. He wiped away Elena’s tears of fear. “Go to bed and have some sleep. Take Damon’s bed if it makes you feel better. Tomorrow everything will be better”
Not completely reassured Elena had entered Damon’s bedroom. She had crawled underneath the sheets and now her eyes closed.
She woke up outside, at an unfamiliar place. She had this dream before and again she heard the familiar voice. Only this time she recognized the voice.
“Damon” she whispered.

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.
