Take Your Time

Elena POV

Oh god, Caroline, what happened?

Nothing, okay?!

That is not nothing! Did somebody hurt you?

No, okay, nothing. It just...My mom would kill me.

I pulled down her shawl and saw even more bite mark

Did Damon hurt you?

No! Of course not! Just leave me alone. Okay, Elena?!
This is why i like Inanna more

I walked outside and saw Damon. I walked up to him and pushed him

There is something seriously wrong with you. You stay away from Caroline matter of fact stay away from my sister too or I will go straight to her mother, the sheriff. You got it? Stay away from her.
I then walked towards Stefan

I'm sorry. I take it all back. You're completely right about Damon.

What did he do?

There are bruises all over Caroline's body. Bite marks, and he has her all confused and messed up in the head.
You don't look surprised.

Um...I'm handling it.

Handling it? Stefan, you should be having him arrested.

Elena, please. I...I don't expect you to understand.

I don't understand anything, Stefan. So why don't you just clear it up for me?

Look, there are things that you don't know, okay? Things that I want to tell you, but I can't. And I may never be able to. And I just need you to trust me.

Trust is earned. I can't just magically hand it over.

I'm so sorry. I have to go.
Inanna POV

I was looking all over for Elena and Caroline

Caroline? There you are. I've been looking everywhere for you. Are you okay?

Yeah. I'm fine.

Caroline, what happened?

I'm fine.

No. You're shaking. Caroline—What—

I'm fine!

Caroline, come here, come here.
She started to cry and mumble "im fine"
I grabbed her and hugged her

X

I woke up to the pain in my mouth

Argh! I yelled

i jumped out of bed and ran towards my mirror

I lifted my upper lip to see my teeth growing pointier

Fuck...it's happening

I walked in the bathroom to find...Vicki?

I--I'm sorry, I'm almost done.

It's--it's ok. Take your time.

I walked downstairs to find Jenna and Lena in the kitchen

Are you aware of what's going on upstairs?

Uh-huh.

And you have no objection, Jenna?

He could be craftier about it, at least make an effort to sneak her in and out. Oh, and just so you know, I won't be home for dinner.

Oh, so you're actually going to do it. You're gonna go out with Logan.
