I don't Believe In Monsters

Chapter 23

Elena's POV

I sit on the living room couch of the Salvatore Boarding House, with a glass of Damons bourbon in my hands.

You see, I live at my house, but I'm here most of the time. Or at my brothers Manchin. I still haven't fed. I need to, but I just keep thinking about it. Vein? Blood bag? Animal? I don't know. Just as I'm lost in thought someone walks in. Someone who I've been regretting to talk to. Stefan.

"Hey, Elena." He says as he sits down in the love seat.
?"H-hey Stefan." I stutter. My fear has got the best of me.

"Look Elena, I am so, so sorry. I just got upset about, you and Damon, and I lashed out by turning off my emotions and hurting you guys."

"Its, fine Stefan it wasn't your fault, and I'm sorry about Damon and I. He just, kind of snuck up on me." I explain. He nods his head and looks down.

"I was thinking you know, you still need to feed, I could help you. I could get you started on an Animal diet. It would b-" He stops mid sentance because of Damon.

"Out now, if I see you talking to her again I'll rip your heart out without looking back." He says sternly ushering Stefan out of his seat.

"No Damon it's okay, he apologized and he was talking about how I could maybe start an animal die-" I get cut off by Damon. Shocker.

"No, no, no, no, did I mention no?" Damon says waving his hands in the air. I can't help but smirk.

"But Damon she could,-" Stefan is once again stopped by Damon.

"No girl of mine is gonna start sucking bunnies, huh Uh no how. And Elena you need to feed. " He says shaking his head.

"How? Like Vein or blood bag? I'm sorry I'm just really confused about how all of this works and I, I didn't want this and," I stop by Damon pulling me up, and hugging me.

"I know. I know Elena, and I'm sorry. You didn't deserve this." He says quietly and kisses my lips. Out of the corner of my eye I see a flash of sadness in stefans face and I feel horrible.
