the opposite of him . He was kind and polite . And he would never do anything bad to me . At least , I use to think that before I found out what his true colors were really like . But , this was no time for comparison . Especcially because the way his eyes were shining with anger .

" You can't play with people's feelings like this anymore . " he moved his finger back and forth . " I can't let you do that . I need to stop that . " he murmured quietly , like he was speaking to himself . But , I knew that those words were meant for me .

I could see his vampire veins showing off . And his deadly fangs appeared . I knew what was he going to do and yet I just stud there , paralysed . I couldn't move- maybe I didn't want to , maybe it was just fear doing its work - I don't know why , but I just couldn't .

I heard an animal growl and it wasn't coming from Stefan . I searched with my eyes , just to find the source of the sound on the top of the stairs . Before I even looked up , I knew that it was him . I could recognize his voice everywhere - whether is it a growl or a gentle word .

He jumped and everything else happened in a blink of an eye . Damon grabbed Stefan by the neck and took him away from me , still growling . " You really think that you can do that ? Think twice . " Damon said angrily looking at his brother . Stefan didn't hesitate to grab his neck back . They were super-speed wrestling and , surprisingly , they didn't break any piece of furniture considering the speed they were moving . They were growling at each other and then they- disappeared ?

I looked around the room - there was no sign of them . Then , after a few minutes passed , Damon showed up in the room . Just like that . I could see worry on his face . He approached me .

I knew that he thought that the compulsion worked , and I had to pretend that it really did . This was no time for stuff like that , even though I had a lot of things to say to him .

" Elena ... You must have a million questions .... And he tried to attack you... " he shook his head . He closed his eyes in frustration . " You must be tired . You need to rest . "

I gazed at him , with questions in my eyes . " Look , I know that you want to ask me a lot of stuff , but it will have to wait until tomorrow . Now , please go to my room and go to sleep . " his worry face was back . I couldn't argue with him , even if I wanted to . I was exhausted and I could never beat that look he was giving me . And his look , besides worried , was gentle . He melted my heart with it .

So , I simply said : " Okay . " and I could see that that made him happy , because he smiled to me . "Off you go , now . " he said and I rushed upstairs to his room .
A failed compulsion:part two

Elena's P.O.V.

I climbed upstairs and finally found my way to Damon's bedroom . His door were like the rest of the doors in the house- dark wood with golden locks- but the only difference was that his door had his initials on them . I was many times in his room while I lived here . I loved it - it reminded me of him - but I tried to stay away as much as possible , because it was painful , knowing that he wasn't there .

I opened the door and sighed . Everything was on its place . The double bed in the middle with a canopy , his black nightstand , the big dresser ... and the shelves above his bed , which were usually empty , now were once again full of his journals . I noticed a huge travelling bag , tossed in the corner . And it was opened . I could only see his clothes in it- black and just black - and I was curious . But , this was certainly no time for snooping around . And I noticed small details in the room that were giving away the fact that he was here . Like his bed - it wasn't madly tidy anymore , I could tell that he was sitting on it . And it was like the whole room was once again alive with him back in it .

Without him in it , it was just an ordinary room . But , like this , it was really like a part of him . And I was happy , for some reason .

It was crazy and strange and amazing - all that at the same time- because his room was 'alive' again . I was tired and I wanted to go to sleep . But there was just one problem- I didn't bring any pajamas with me when I was coming to stop Damon for leaving again .

Oh , well , guess that I'll just have to put on one of his shirts . I was too tired to take a shower . I shut the door and opened the closet which was surprisingly full of clothes . Vampires , duh . I pulled away a black shirt and shut the closet . I took off my clothes and put on the shirt .

I was a bit uncomfortable considering the whole situation-Damon could hear my every move , Stefan was in the cellar probably passed out from vervain and I was going to sleep in Damon's bed in Damon's shirt . It was weird because Damon and I never actually ...Damn ! I need to control my thoughts . But , how could I , when I was in his shirt , which smelled like him .

I pulled the quilt and liedon the bed . It was extreme comfortable . The mattress was soft and solid at the same time . It was like I was floating on clouds . And it had Damon's scent . I knew that this was crazy - even though I knew that he was just downstairs , I was still afraid that he'll change his mind and leave again . And , this was crazier - I missed him , even though I was talking to him just a few minutes ago . I didn't want him to leave again and not come back for the next five years or more.

At that awful thought , I started to cry . After just a minute , I heard a soft knock on the door . " Elena , are you okay ? " I heard Damon's voice coming from the other side . I didn't reply . I was just crying and I tried to convince myself that he was here , outside the door , and that he wasn't going to leave . But , it was hard , because he could leave any moment just like he did five years ago . At that thought , my sobs got louder , and I couldn't control them .

He opened the door . Luckily , he didn't turn on the lights , because I couldn't stand it right now , and because my eyes were probably red and swollen and that didn't look good . I laughed in myself - how could I care how do I look at this time ?

" Elena , what's wrong ?" he asked . I didn't know what to say , no I knew what would be the answer to his question , but I didn't feel like answering , because it would only be worse . He was standing in the doorway , not knowing what to do . After a minute of thinking , he decided . He slowly shut the door , I'm guessing because he didn't want to upset me anymore , and with his vampire speed lied on the bed next to me . " Hey , talk to me . Tell me what's wrong . What can I do to help ? " he asked, looking helpless and desperate .

I still didn't want to answer . And like he was reading my thoughts , he said : " You'll have to answer me sooner or later . I won't go away until you do . " . I could see that he was serious . But , if it was even possible , his last sentence made me cry even more .

" What did I say ? " he asked , his blue eyes filled with worry .

" I don't want you to leave . " I whispered .

I could see that he was surprised by my answer .

" You left for five years and never came back . You never gave me any sign that you were alive . " I was horrified , remembering that time he was away .

His blue eyes darkened at my words . He suddenly pulled me to him , letting me sob into his shirt .

" Shh ... I'm not going anywhere . I will be here . Right here , with you . " he was whispering , his chin on my head . He was stroking my back . I wrapped my hands around him , trying to believe in his words . Trying to convince myself that this was no dream and that he was really here .

And like that , he lulled me to sleep .

Damon's P.O.V.

This wasn't good . Not good at all . How Elena was feeling ... And yet , this once again didn't make any sense . Her missing me that much . I knew that she l lovedme ... just in a different way as I loved her . She loved me enough to save me from that Lexy's boyfriend ... And I knew that we had an undeniable connection . I felt sometimes like I could see into her soul , and now it's like that all the time . I know what she thinks , I know her worries , I know her thoughts , her wishes ... I know the whole her . And I love her , the way she'll never love me
