You'll Always Have Me~ N.M

11. Drunk...again.

I was meant to bring Tyler home, but I got a call from Liz saying Carolien got hurt and could use me for comfort. I drove to her house just after Ty said it was okay, and he would get a ride from Matt.

I was lying in bed with Caroline and Liz. Liz was stroking her daughters her gently not to wake her up. Care fell asleep only 20 minutes after I arrived. Liz said I could say, and I thanked her, not wanting g to face my fathers wrath from this night. "Yeah, I'll be right there." Liz ends her call.

"Everything okay?" I look over at her in the hallway.

"Yeah, just take care of her, okay? I'll be back later." I just nod, knowing it has something to do with her work.
I also fell asleep a few minutes after she left but woke up getting a call from Damon.

"What do you want it's 4:23 in the morning?" I greeted him with a groggy whisper.

"Good morning to you too." He sarcastically says into the phone.

"It's not the morning, Damon. That's the problem, well, one of the problems. You're the second." I say, walking out of the bedroom into the bathroom, hearing the faint snores from Lizs' room and ruffles from Carolines.

"Well, I was about to invite you on my road trip with Elena, but now I don't think you deserve it." Damon says nonchalantly, hinting Elena was with him.

"What! Why is Elena with you? Did you kidnap her?" I question genuinely confused.

"No. She was in a car accident. I helped her now she's with me. Now you are coming or not." He asks me so casually.

"Yes. Pick me up now. I'm at Caroline's house. Is she okay? Her parents were in a car accident and she was there too she must be freaking out." I ask, grabbing my purse and putting my lipgloss and wallet back in it.

"She's fine. She's sleeping right now. I'll be there in a minute." He ends the call quickly.

I sigh. He hung up the phone before I could ask any more questions. I walk over to Lizs' room, knocking on it quiet. "Liz, I have to get going, my
~friend~ is gonna pick me up in a second." I mumble, hoping she hears but also hoping she doesn't. She hums in response. I close her door. Then, hear a knock on the door. That was quick.

I sigh, reaching the door. I had my silpers on. I make a face wishing I changed. Luckily, I had my black zip-up jumper on with a pair of pj shorts on. "Nice pj's." Is the first thing heard opening the door.

I scoff and walk to his car, locking the door, with my spare key. I texted Caroline, saying I was going home and got into his car, I was gonna get in the front, but that's where Elean was seated. "Are you sure she's okay?" I ask him, looking at the small bruise on her face.

"She'll be fine. Buckle up. Thanks for coming along, ~friend.~" He teasing states to me. I scoffed. He was listening to my one-sided conversation with Liz.

"I'm not here for you, Damon. I'm here for Elena. Where's Stefan? What even happened to her?"

"Well, you see, I'm not sure how much of the story you got from Stefan, but our ex, Katherine looked exactly like. Ms. Gibert over here." He pointed to Elena, who was sleeping soundly in the passenger seat.

"And she found out." I trail off already knowing the end of this story.

"You knew?" He asked, surprised. I nod a 'yes.'

"I found out when Lexi came into town. You know Lexi Stefans' best friend. The one you basically banished out of Mystic Falls. The night you got me arrested." I judge his antics. He looked at me through the little mirror.
