I Promise You

Chapter 5

Elena's POV:

While Sam was asking Stefan and Damon all these questions they have already asked, I saw Dean get up from the couch and turn around towards the window. By then I completely tuned out Sam and was trying to figure out what he was doing. If you weren't paying attention, you would've missed it. I saw Dean pull out a pocket knife and put it against his hand. I knew then what he was going to do but it was to late. He cut his hand and I saw Stefan turn around and I heard Damon take in a deep breath yet he still kept up his calm facade.

"Turn around...if you have nothing to hide" said Dean directed to Stefan. They knew what they were. How did they find out? I gave them no leads and Stefan and Damon acted like any other person would. I really hoped that Damon and Stefan would keep control and try to fool them but I knew that was hopeless. Next thing I know Sam and Dean have there guns pointed at Stefan and Damon who were not holding back anymore. I just reacted.

"Don't shoot them!" I said as I stepped in front of their guns.

"Elena! Get away from them. They are hunters. Savages. They will kill anyone that stands in their way!" yelled Stefan, him reaching for my arm to pull me behind him. I stepped forward so I was out of his reach and looked back at Sam and Dean.

"Hear me out. I can explain."

"Why should we listen to you! You already lied to us once, what makes us believe you won't lie to us again" said Dean. I needed them to listen to me. I can't-no I won't let them kill them. I looked at Dean in the eyes and was at the point of begging and pleading.

"Please. I'm sorry I lied to you but all I wanted to do was protect them. If you put the guns down I will tell you everything. No lies. No more hiding." They were skeptical at first but they decided to listen.

"Fine. We will listen. But there is no guarantee that we won't kill them afterwards. We are savages anyways." Dean says while shooting a glare at Stefan. They sit on the couch across from us and I look at them.

"What do you want to know?" I ask them.

"Everything" they both said at the same time.

"Where do I even begin..."
