"NO FRIEND DISCOUNTS, NO FREEBIES, NO I'LL PAY YOU LATERS.we are not running a charity here. No we are not!" Belle sighed softly as she stood at the sexy suds carwash with her cousin and Stefan. For obvious reasons Belle hadn't wanted to come to the car wash. But with a lot of pleading Elena finally convinced her on the compromise that she wouldn't be wearing anything remotely sexy.

The past week Belle had opted to stay in her bedroom and mope about her situation with Damon. Hurt couldn't even begin to describe how the redhead was feeling.

"This is supposed to be a sexy carwash." Caroline sneered giving a pointed look towards Elena and Stefan who stripped reluctantly. Caroline moved her gaze onto Belle whom braced herself for a comment about her weight. Surprisingly the comment never came and Caroline simply motioned her over.

Confused and slightly scared Belle conformed to the blondes request. Her heart beating loudly "Thank you." Belle blinked unsure if she had heard correctly, she pushed up her glasses "Pardon?" Caroline's face twisted into an irritated scowl, her baby blue eyes narrowing dangerously at the girl before her "Is deaf a side effect from eating twice your weight? I said thank you. I heard what you did to Damon."

Belle released a little noise of realisation "It was nothing really." The two resumed to the tense silence they were in beforehand. The silence was broken by Elena "Hey! We're out of towels and those shimmy thingies." Her cousin giggled, her cheeks dusted lightly pink, no doubt from something she was doing with Stefan.

Caroline turned to the redhead "Big Belle will get some." She said tightly. Belle sighed knowing it was not in her best interest to argue with the queen bee. Reluctantly she stood and headed towards the school to gather towels.

"Belle"

Strange whispers filled the hallway and her head. Her eyes soon glossed over and before she could be aware of her actions she found herself turning the opposite fired a single words escaping her lips "Damon."

"BELLE HELP ME" THE SOMMERS GIRL FELT HER STOMACH constrict by the sight before. Unknowingly she had found her way into the cellar underneath the Salvatore Boarding House. "Damon." She whimpered, said man was lying in front of her, his pale skin deathly pale, his dull eyes flashed with something unrecognisable as he lifted his head slowly to look at the shocked redhead.

He cursed inwardly an unsettling feeling arising in him. He had tried to reach out to the blonde bimbo he had been drinking from. But his mind must have drifted off towards the short haired beauty before him ever since he had met her, it seemed to be a reoccurring event.

"How the hell did I get here- Did Stefan do this to you." Her voice wavered as her blood ran cold at the thought of her friend doing this to his own brother. Damon using the last of his strength to push himself up, his arms gripped onto the bars tightly "Listen Belle. I need you to let me out but as soon as you let me out you run. Do you here me!"

Belle's brown orbs prickled slightly with unfallen tears as she nodded slowly. She hesitantly unlocked the door. Before she could react, Zach Salvatore came bundling down the stairs, his voice at a frightening pitch "Run! Get out of here! Run-" before the poor man could react Damon had appeared in front of him and snapped his neck swiftly.

Releasing a sob Belle headed to Damon's earlier warning and ran. She found herself in an occupied bedroom and with all the strength she could muster she piled inanimate objects by the door in hopes to block. All while sobbing relentlessly.

Belle was pretty sure Zach was dead. She had never known Zach personally but she held no grudge against the man and truly weeped about his abrupt death. Unbeknownst to her she left the window open which gave a certain vampire access to the room she was staying in.

A guff of wind breezes through the redhead who was sitting in the corner hugging her knees her glasses discarded carelessly on the floor as tear droplets ran down her freckled face. She looked up only to meet the icy blue eyes of her tormentor.

In shock she scrambled back into the corner her arms placed in front of her like a shield "I'm not going to hurt you princess." His velvet smooth voice caused her release her guard slightly before she reprimanded herself.

This man is a murderer Belle no matter how hot he looked doing it.

"Said like every serial killer ever." Her voice wavering slightly at her snarky reply. In flash Damon was in front of her, his arms encased her shivering body and he place his palm on her head "I would never hurt you."

Belle squirmed in his arms before slumping slightly a sudden rush of tired  overcoming her. Her gaze switched to the blood painted on his chest "Vampire." She whispered before letting darkness succumb her. Her limp body falling in his arms and a warm feeling filling her consciousness.
