Request from @sessa23 on Tumblr. The reader runs into a vampire in the woods and has to kill them. Damon finds her and she begs him to compel it away.

Leaves and twigs crunch under my boots while I'm walking through the woods at night. The wind blowing my hair as I hug my arms to my chest. Elena has been getting on my nerves lately with always needing to be saved. I needed to clear my head without anyone following me. I love our friends but even my boyfriend Damon is dropping everything to save her. Suddenly I hear footsteps approach me from behind. "Who's there?" I call out getting a bad feeling.

Honestly it's probably stupid of me, a human to be out alone at night. Mystic Falls is filled with supernatural creatures that hide in plain sight. Damon and Alaric have taught me how to defend myself against vampires. I feel a whooshing sound appear behind me. Hands gripping my arms with fangs almost breaking my skin. Elbowing the stranger behind me I get the chance to grab the small wooden stake from my boot.

"Ugh!" I grunt pushing the stake into the vampire's chest. His eyes glare at me fangs still sticking out. The body stumbles over and knocked me to my back. My heart beats out of my chest causing me to shove the dead body off me. Looking down I see blood stains on my shirt tears welling in my eyes. "I just - I- Damon." A whooshing sound appeared again but this time I sigh in relief at the figure in front of me, my boyfriend.

"Babe look at me. It's me, I'm here." His voice calls out icy blue eyes pouring into mine. Pulling my legs to my chest I start shacking at the horrible memory. The vampire's dead body laying a few inches away from Damon. The bloody stake broke in half. Part in his heart and the other end at my feet. "Damon I - I killed - I killed him." I started crying into my knees still shacking. I've never hurt anyone in my life.

Damon trails your form feeling guilty. You're the only human in the group besides Matt the quarterback. But you were a lot tougher than he would've first anticipated. Hell you weren't afraid when he told you were a vampire. Yet seeing you a shacky sobbing mess broke his heart. Gently he brushes hair from your forehead whispering. "Y/n I can help. Just tell me what to do. I hate seeing you like this."

"Compel..." I sniffed out in tears lifting my head up. Damon sees your face is red and eyes puffy from crying. "Compel the memory away." He wiped away stray tears with his thumbs, trying to lean me to another option. "Y/n, are you sure you want to do that?" He'd promised me that he will only compel me if it was life or death or if I begged it of him. But it's too painful to relieve.

Clutching his black leather jacket in my hands I begged. "Damon please. I can't relieve it - compel me...compel me..." I remove my vervain ring from my right hand clutching it in my hands. His left hand comes to rest against my cheek, his right gently combing through my hair. "Don't worry baby. It'll be over soon, I promise." I feel tears slipping out watching his icy eyes.

"Forget killing the vampire in front of us. All you remember is that you went for a walk to clear your head until you got tired. You called me to pick you up. Now get some sleep..." His eyes sternly look into my eyes compelling the pain away. My eyes start to feel heavy and I yawn snuggling into his embrace. He slowly stood carrying me bridal style.

He lays me down in his bed under the warm covers once we reach the Salvatore house. He sits on the other side of the bed, playing with ends of my hair. "Stefan I need you to take care of a body in the woods. Y/n killed him don't worry I handed it." I left a voicemail for my brother before turning my phone off to watch her. Even in my sleepy state I hear Damon mumbling into my hair. "I love you Y/n L/n. You are my life." He rests his chin ontop my head drifting off to sleep too.
