ONLY IF FOR A NIGHT

Elena walked into her room and closed the door behind her. Tossing her worn messenger bag on the bed she kicked off her shoes and shrugged off her jacket. Another day, no answers. She couldn't exactly ask for help, she wasn't entirely sure how things were going with the Sheriff and everyone else seemed to blow her off. Bonnie was still away visiting family, Jeremy was just acting weird. Jenna and Alaric would try and change the subject and Damon. . .
With a sigh she pulled her shirt off and tossed it in the hamper. Damon kept telling her to not try. That Stefan was gone, but she knew he was just as worried. Grabbing a tank and pair of boxers she headed to the bathroom to start the shower and pulled her hair up and out of the way. Elena knew she couldn't be worried every minute of every day. She knew that she was just getting frustrated at the lack of information. Stefan didn't answer his phone, his texts. She really just wanted to know he was still alive. That he was all right. She didn't think she could handle another death on her head. And that was how she thought of them all. Anything to do with that curse, the doppelganger, she still sort of blamed herself for. Especially when it was something she had stupidly run out to try and deal with alone, only to make a bigger mess.
The shower was longer than necessary, she just needed the heat of the water to pound down on her. Turning her skin a soft blush color, and the steam to fill the bathroom until you couldn't see. By the time she dried off and dressed her hair was damp from the air and steam alone.
Bare feet padded back into the carpeted bedroom and she left the door open to allow the rush of steam and heat to escape. Pulling her hair down she picked up her brush and untangled the mess. A small pause and then she was hiding a smile as she continued, her back to the bed and window ledge. "Either I've gotten better at knowing you're around, or you've gotten worse about sneaking in."

Damon should of known after all this time that Elena knew him better than he had thought she had. It was amazing when you thought about it, that she knew without even bothering to look, that he was around. It comforted Damon more than he shown.
Having heard her shower, he glanced around her room. For the most part, Elena kept her room the same from day to day. The only difference he could tell was that maybe a shirt had been laid our. Other than that, it was all he could see different from the last time he had been there.
Damon had taken a lean to a spot behind the door when she entered the room. Her words hit his ears as soon as she spoke. Yup, she definitely knew he was around. Taking a step from the dim corner, he stepped up to where she standing. He watched the brush flow through the wet hair. He remembered kissing Elena and how that hair of hers felt in his fingers. Just the mere touch of her skin and hair against his hands and fingertips made him want her all the more.
Blue eyes lifted from her hair to look over her shoulder. Eyes focused on the mirrow and her reflection inside of it." Its a little of both." He laughed and gave her a wink. " Honestly, it is a good thing you're more in tuned with your surroundings Elena. With all that has been going on, you personally need to be. Anyhow, what's going on?" That was Damons way of asking how her day went.

Strangely enough, Elena felt comforted that he was there. Oh, she also thought it was unnecessary, that she was fine, but she couldn't deny that her days felt empty a lot of times, especially with no contact. Even if it was just them arguing. Raising her eyes she caught his through the mirror. She used to think he looked incredibly out of place in her room, but he didn't anymore. Not to her. Her room, seemed out of place more often than not. She didn't think it suited her anymore. Soft coral walls, thick feminine carpet, curtains with lace along them. Even her bedspread and the shelves of stuffed animals and trophies seemed so little girl, so innocent. Part of her thought she should change it, but she knew she couldn't. Her mother had helped her decorate it three years before they died. It was a reminder of a moment in time, in her life, if nothing else.
There it was, the warning for her safety. One she just couldn't take as seriously anymore. "I'm fine Damon." Setting her brush down she turned around to face him, pushing her hair behind her shoulders. "It's over right? It was all about that ritual, and we failed, and it's over. It's not me we need to worry about anymore." She added with a sigh.
Nibbling at her bottom lip she crossed her arms as if she were cold, to hold herself. Prevent her from moving closer. It felt unfair to try and gain some comfort from him. Unfair to him and to Stefan. "I, haven't heard from him. At all. I need to know he's alive Damon. Just, that he's alive." She knew no one wanted her looking. They wanted it to be really over. The idea that there was yet another death, sacrifice, for her, was just something she couldn't let go of. She was trying to tell herself that she could move on without him in her life. Katherine had made it clear that he had chosen to leave,to save Damon. She even understood that, not that it didn't sting. That she wasn't enough. She understood family though, and used that to convince herself that if that was his choice, she could live with it. If he could.

Damon had heard Elena say that she was fine many times. And each time she said such a thing, it was only hours, or a day perthaps, that she was needing saved. The words of her being safe hit his ears and flew right on by. He couldn't help but roll his eyes. Leave it to Damon to remind her of this too. "Elena. Seriously...do I need to remind you of Klaus or Rebekeh, or any of the other dangers of this past year? Things are never fine when it comes to you. Besides, half the time you are not fine either." He watched her turn around to face him and took her beauty in.
He brought his hand up to caress her cheek with his thumb. It was amusing that she was casually writing all ths off.. She knew better. He knew better. As he thought just a few moments before. He knew better. Her skin was warm to his touch and made him briefly smile. When his hand moved back to his side, he let out a small grunt. " If you want to keep up this denial thing, go for it. Just don't try and include me in it Elena. Alright?" Her sigh comfirmed it though, no words would let her get out of this denial with Damon.
As soon as she gave into her emotions and hurt, he had to fight hard not to roll his eyes and remind himself that she had, or still, loved Stefan. As he listened, he wish he could rip his brothers head off for doing this to her. Taking a step forward, he brought his arms up and wrapped them around her. Damon drew her close to him and to relax against his chest. It felt to him, the right thing to do at the moment. " Elena.. I'm sorry. " He wanted in many ways to keep his brother away though. Perhaps it would give him the extra push of her to him. If only that was true.

She caught the eye roll, it wasn't new. He never believed her, that was all right, she didn't always believe herself. Though, honestly, she was more worried about Katherine then anything. If she wanted Stefan, or Damon, well, or both honestly, this was her opportunity. She knew better than to think that now that the ritual was over, things would be back to 'normal'. She didn't honestly have a real definition of normal anymore. So, assuming that they were safe, any of them, was probably a bad assumption. Still, it didn't stop her from raising a brow and tilting her head to the side in a slight reprimand. If not at least a warning that she caught the look.
"Klaus, has what he wants. He wasn't interested in me, only the doppelganger, that curse. So if he doesn't need me, there's no reason for him to come back for me. Even if he did know I was alive." It was stated matter of factly. As if she believed it completely. If only because she figured if she said it enough, it would be fact. Maybe it was just that she was exhausted from worrying about possibly dying. Maybe it was that she had, already, technically died. She hadn't given it as much thought, other than what it had cost.
His thumb grazed her cheek and she chanced a look directly in his eyes. It didn't bother her that he was slightly cooler than she was, it was like shade on a summer day. Her eyes closed for a moment and her voice got softer. "It's not denial if I believe it." A dry laugh bubbled up and she gave a crooked smile. Taking the step into him as he wrapped his arms around her, she turned her head into his chest. "The funny thing is, I know you are Damon. I know you are just as worried about him. Even if you are mad at him. So why won't you help me find him?"

Damon rolled his eyes as he listened to Elena. It amazed him how she thought things was either black or white when it came to Klaus. Damon knew better. In fact, he knew far better. He might not do anything to her personally, at the moment, at least but that didn't mean if it came down to it, she was invincible. She wasn't. " Elena. Come on. The guy doesn't stop unless he has what he wants fully in his grasp. Look past all this and aside from yourself. We are talking about Klaus. Damn, Elena." He was exasperated with trying to explain it. Or how he knew better to trust Klaus.
Oh my god. He couldn't believe what he was hearing out of her mouth. He wanted to grab her by the shoulders and shake the living daylights out of her. Its not denial if you believe it? Seriously? Elena Gilbert, man you are too naive. For sure, this was what Damon was thinking. Well, until he heard that type of laugh. It was dry and unconvincing. He just narrowed his eyes at her and frowned.
He turned and headed towards the kitchen. He was looking for something alcoholic to drink. He sure needed it after his talk with Elena at times. Hence this being one of those times. He assumed she was following and when he got into the kitchen, he spoke out towards her. " I don't miss him that much to help you find him and go all over the world looking for Stefan." Again an eye roll. Why did he always have to hunt for Stefan. He didnt like his brother. Well.. he tried to act that way most of the time. "Besides..Elena.. If I find him..that means you and him again. And I don't.." He glanced from her to look in a shelf. He wasnt about to go tell her what he was actually going to say there.

The problem was, she didn't know Klaus, and she didn't want to. She got that she couldn't run, that she couldn't go back. Elena understood that her life had taken a turn that she couldn't ignore. There was just so much, so much that changed, that she had no control over. Sometimes the only way to deal was with one thing at a time. Letting go of the rest. Hoping that it wouldn't bite her in the ass. Usually it did. "Right, Klaus. The guy that wanted to be a hybrid, and now he is. Who knows what he wants now?! He probably doesn't. We don't know if he has a plan, or if he's just, starting fresh as a whole new breed of nightmare!" She was trying not to yell but really, what did any of them know right now? They were back to having more questions than answers and she was honestly exhausted from hoping answers would help.
She winced at the tlook. So much for faking it. Damon had a habit of seeing right through her. Times like this, it wasn't comforting. How was she supposed to delude herself if she couldn't delude him! At least with her family and friends if she put on a smile and said she was fine they believed it. Or at least wanted to. Frustrating. Horribly frutrating that she couldn't hide anything from him. He walked out and she sighed, throwing her hands up before following him down.
It didn't take a psychic to know what he was looking for so she leaned a hip against the counter and crossed her arms. A false smile on her lips as she tilted her head at him. "Jenna only keeps wine in the house. Ric hid some scotch under the sink, behind the disposal." She figured if Ric knew it was Damon he wouldn't say anything. Even if he wanted to. Her smile faltered and her eyes flickered down to the floor. She could tell him to stop, to not go there. She had before. Things had changed though, so she didn't feel it was fair to ask of him anymore.
Her voice came out barely above a whisper. Thankfully, vampire hearing meant he'd hear it anyway. "I'm not stupid, Damon. I, I saw how he was before. When he willingly drank human blood. I saw how hard it was for him to come back. He told me, about before. About when you first turned, and how Lexi saved him. It took, year. The longer he's gone, the longer he's with Klaus, the less chance there is that I will ever see him again. Even if we get him back, there's no, no guarantee that he'll ever be the Stefan I knew. I know that. But I can't, just leave him like that. Not with Klaus. Not because of me."
