Stefan's *dream* POV

Aurelia eyes nearly snapped out of her eye sockets when she heard a very big bang waking her out her she soundless sleep. Her chest heaved a little as she tried desperately to catch her breath.

"Hello?" she calls out but no reply was given.

"Jeramy? Elena?" Still no answer.

Pushing the covers aside and getting out of bed she cautiously walked around the Gilbert home checking her surroundings. The air felt uneasy. She felt like she wasn't alone in her home and it was not her siblings nor her aunt there but a more... dangerous presence.  

Suddenly something flew past her. It was so fast she thought she'd catch whiplash from how  quickly she turned. "Hello? she calls out again her chest heaving up and down now resembling how fast her heart was going.

Suddenly the living room television cut on by itself the loud news reporter women catching Aurelia attention. Her ears were ringing at the moment so she couldn't hear the women only read her lips and what she read scared the living crap out of her. The news reports stated "A young women by the name of Aurelia Gilbert was found dead this afternoon. Killed by an vicious animal attack."

Her eyes widened "Dead? I'm not dead! I'm right here." Her mind was spinning.

Turning around she comes face to face with a person. Her movements stopping so they could stare at each other.

It was Damon.

She didn't run when her mind told her too, she didn't scream when her mouth wanted her too. She did non of those things she only just... stared. He does the same thing, studying her face, her features.

Not so surprisingly Damon took a step closer to her slowly, almost chest to chest. Then by his surprise Aurelia took that same step closer to him and now they could feel each other's  breath blowing upon their faces.

Lifting his hand Damon caressed Ray's cheek with his thumb in smooth strokes. Ray liked the sensation thus causing her to close her eyes and exhaling before opening them again and starring into Damon's ocean blue eyes.

Gaining courage Ray took the next step on her own. Lifting up just a little, because a little is all it took, there lips were ready to touch. Both of them closing there eyes ready for the feeling of each other's lips...

Stefan's *awake* POV

Sitting up straight like a mummy popping out of its coffin I took a deep breath. Anger bubbled inside me. Damon's messing with me. I couldn't stop the dream nor can I get it out of my head now. Aurelia's not safe. More her than Elena. I knew this would happen once he saw her. I have to keep him away from her.

"Ugh" I groaned wiping the beads of sweat off my forehead.

"Bad dream?" The sound of Damon voice made me snap my head in his direction thinking he could hear my thoughts. I knew he couldn't but I'm pretty sure from the glare I was giving him he had a pretty damn good idea how upset I was.

"You see how easy it was to get in your head just now?" he taunts. "You really need some human blood."

Yeah so I can kill you, I thought.

"Did you like the dream?" I gave no reply. I stood up out of my bed slowly. "Too bad you couldn't finish it huh? It was about to get good pal. After our lips would touch and she'd rip my shirt in half," he smirks continuing, "Then we'd take it to the bedroom, where I'm sure no man has claimed her yet."
