“So, you’re saying Stefan’s behind it?” Caroline asked breathless. “I don’t know. I hope not, but we can’t ignore the possibility that he could’ve” Damon said being realistic. Elena threw her arms around her knees, looking pale. “I don’t know, Damon” Caroline said. “It didn’t look very professional. I mean, when you feed on humans you erase your traces. This vampire didn’t. The body was still there and the blood wasn’t cleaned up. I don’t think this vampire has been doing this a lot” Elena looked up with a hopeful expression on her face. “So, there’s still a chance Stefan has nothing to do with it. That’s good. As long as he doesn’t kill anyone, no damage has been done” she said. Damon shook his head. “What?” Elena asked, a little annoyed. She felt like Damon was going to ruin her renewed hope. “Even if Stefan didn’t kill that person, still someone had to turn the vampire that did. There aren’t that many vampires in Mystic Falls” Damon said, trying to put Elena back on the ground. Elena averted to Katherine. “Maybe she did it” she said, nodding at her vampire look-a-like. Katherine widened her eyes. She walked towards Elena, lifting her hand to slap her, but Damon grabbed her wrist and put himself between Elena and Katherine. “You’re not touching her” he said soft but threatening. He turned at Elena. “You should be careful with your accusations. We need her” “Oh, but you can accuse Stefan?” Elena said upset. “I’m not accusing him” Damon said. “I just want you to keep your eyes open and not be blinded by your…love for him” “As should you” Elena shot back. “You don’t know if you can trust Katherine” “She didn’t do it” Damon sighed. “How would you know?” Elena said disdainful. “Oh, right, I forgot! You have been bonding with her. You’re now close friends, so you tell each other everything” Damon frowned his eyebrows and exchanged an uncomprehending look with Katherine. “Where’s this coming from?” he asked slowly. Katherine smirked. “Yeah, I’m dying to hear it” she said. Caroline looked from Elena to Damon and back as if she was watching a tennis game. Elena swallowed and put her hands on Damon’s upper arms. “I don’t trust her” she started. “She played with you. She used your love for her. She put you through so much pain, missing her, thinking she was locked up. But she never cared about you. She didn’t care you’ve been hurting for 145 years. She didn’t care you wanted to die when you thought she was dead”
Damon took her hands in his and looked her deep in the eye. “I love you for caring about me. I wouldn’t know what to do without you. But I could never fall for her all over again, while I’m loving you” He brought her hands to his lips and kissed her fingers. Elena felt how her heart beat fiercely. It felt like everything around them faded away and they were the only two people on the universe.
“Uhum” Katherine coughed. Damon let go of Elena and they turned around. “You’re having an audience”

Phil Coulson's collecting cards
Meg was sitting in front of the mirror in the bathroom of Dorothy’s apartment. She was putting up makeup when the door opened and a woman came in.
“Hi” she said as she walked towards her. “My name’s Heather” she introduced herself and she pulled a chair and sat down. “I hear it’s your first night. How are you feeling? Are you nervous?”
“No” Meg said. “Maybe, I don’t know”
“You’ve had sex before, right?” Heather checked.
“Yeah, of course” Meg responded.
“Okay” Heather said relieved. “This is not a way to lose your virginity”
“Are you trying to give me some kind of pep talk?” Meg asked.
“Yes” Heather admitted. “And to give you this” She put something in Meg’s hands. Meg opened her hand and looked at the white pill. “To get you through your first night”
“I take it it’s not an aspirin” Meg commented sarcastically. She put the pill in her mouth and swallowed.
