Elena was sitting in the kitchen, playing solitaire. She picked up a card and squeezed her eyes at the Joker image. “You’re mocking me, aren’t you?” She got tired of the game, because she was losing, and collected the cards. Then she took two card and placed them against each other, creating a triangle. She did the same with two other cards and placed them next to the first triangle. “Are you seriously building a card house now?” Jeremy asked. He was sitting in the couch, playing a computer game. Elena didn’t respond; she needed all her focus on the construction. “Let her be, Jeremy” Alaric said. “That’s what’s called ‘occupational therapy’”
Elena was halfway her construction when the bell rang. She jumped up and her card house collapsed. Annoyed she got up and answered the door. Complete silence.
“Hi” Damon waved, more shy than he ever was. Elena blinked and stared at him like she was frozen. The she came back to earth.
“Daaaammmoooonnn!!!” she squeaked and she threw her arms around him, nearly suffocating him.
“I can’t breathe” Damon gasped. Elena let go of him and looked at him with an ecstatic smile.
“I missed you so much, Damon! Jeremy said you were with Bonnie and at first I didn’t like it. I mean, you and Bonnie? Only a delusional moron would put the two of you together, right? But then I figured, if Bonnie wants to be with someone who almost bit off her neck and if Damon wants to be with someone who sets him literally on fire, then who am I to stop them? I hope you two will be very happy” Elena ranted, still with that smile on her face. She took a deep breath and then said: “Aren’t you coming in?” She step aside and let him in. “Where’s Bonnie? Didn’t she join you?”
“No” Damon said a little annoyed because the subject didn’t change. “She stayed at home. She’s sick” In the head, he thought.
“Oh no, is it serious?” Elena gasped. Damon rolled his eyes. “She’ll live” he said short. Elena held her head diagonally. “Are you angry with me?” she asked scared like a two year old.
Damon sighed and his annoyed expression vanished. “No, I’m not” he reassured Elena. Not with you, he thought. “Okay” Elena nodded. “Come in” she said and she pulled him into the kitchen. “Can I get you something? We don’t have any blood unfortunately… You can have mine” she stuck her left arm out. Damons eyes bulged and for the first time a little smile appeared on his face. “No, thank you” He gave Elena back her arm and his eyes fell on the table. “What were you doing?” he curiously asked. “Oh, that” Elena said bored. “That’s something to pass the time” Damon sank down on a chair and shoved the cards to him. “In for a little competition?” he challenged Elena. Elena sat opposite Damon. “Bring it on”

Katherine was sitting on a chair. A row of small stakes pinched each arm to the arm-rests and a special kind of muzzle kept her mouth shut. The muzzle also had stakes, smaller than the arm stakes, and they pierced through Katherine’s jaws. “I’m sorry for the inconvenience” Veronica said demeaning. “Actually, I’m not. You had this coming. You broke in here, you threatened me” She took a chair and put it down in front of Katherine. “Such a pity Derek chose the wrong side. If he hadn’t Damon Salvatore would be sitting next to you”
Katherine managed to produce a smirk.
“Oh, don’t be so smug” Veronica sniffed. “I’ll get to him. He’s the one that killed Kelsey. He will die a slow and painful death” she said, more to herself than to Katherine. She stood up and walked to a corner, where she picked up her cross-bow. “In the meantime” she said, while she aimed the crossbow at Katherine. “I have you to have fun with” and she fired.

Damon raced outside and got into his car. He turned around the keys and drove onto the street. He then pushed the accelerator pedal and raced ahead.
He tried to keep his eyes open. He should have drunken some blood, if only just a little bit. He could almost feel his body breaking inside. But he had to stay awake long enough to get to the hospital.
Other drivers were hooting, because he drove from right to left and from left to right.
“Where did you get your driving license?!” someone yelled angry.
Damon felt his eyes fall down. The car drove for another few yards, while other drivers tried to avoid it.
Then the car drove off the road, turned over three times, landed on its upper side and caught fire.
