Runaway Gilbert

Chapter 9

I woke up with a gasp shooting up in bed, everything came flooding back quickly the party and Stefan my hand shot up to my neck gripping it but there was nothing wrong that I could feel. "I healed you, don't worry" A voice called from the door causing me look over at them, it was Damon, he was lingering in the door way staring me down with curiosity. He made his way over to me till he reached the end of the bed. "You okay Doll?" He said softly eyes full of concern, I didn't know how to answer it. After hearing all about the Salvatore brothers I thought that Damon would be the one to attack me, but Stefan never even crossed my mind. At this point I was used to vampires and there ways, it had truly been a while though since someone had fed on me. The last had made me promise to never let anyone else, I guess I broke my promise but he broke his so we're even. 

"I'm fine" I told him patting his arm when he gave me a look. "This isn't my first time Damon, I'm a big boy." I watched at the corner of his lips twitched up into a small smile.

"Elena's just left she says she'll be staying here while Stefan is here," The words caused me to scowl at the thought of staying here with her, he moved to sit next to me on the bed with a serious look on his face. "I know you don't get along with her trust me I get it," He started as he grabbed my hand in his intertwining our fingers. "Your going to have to see her eventually I'm not going to ask you to be best friends with her and skip through town together hand in hand, but your gonna have to see her eventually"

"I know," I whispered I went to continue but Damon's phone ringing cut me off he got off the bed and stepped out the room giving me a sign that he will be back in a few minutes. I sat in bed waiting before getting out of the bed and making my way to the window and glancing out staring off into the forest. I must have stayed there for a while because soon I felt arms wrap around my waist pulling me into a warm body. Quickly, I relaxed against him as Damon rested his head on my shoulder.

"Alaric called he has a lead with Isobel I'm gonna go check it out," He said quietly breath fanning against my neck, he pulled away from me causing me to turn. "Elena also called she's on her way back, so play nice" He teased with a smirk on his face, causing me to smile.

"I always do" I teased with my own smirk, he pressed a kiss to my lips before walking out of the room and quickly out of the house. I made my way downstairs into the kitchen, it had originally been bare before I came here but Damon had went out and stocked it for me. The first place I went was the cupboard stocked with coffee and various types of tea which Damon had got on my special request. I made myself a cup of green tea to calm my nerves once it was finished I went into the living room and sank into a chair sipping on the freshly made cup of tea my eyes slid shut once I placed the cup down, this was a brief moment of relaxation that I had been craving. The silence was broken by the sound of the front door and closing as foot steps approached the living room but froze. I knew who it was, it didn't take a genius Damon had just left and Stefan was locked in the basement on vampire time out.

"Kris" Elena said breathy as if she didn't believe that I was here even after last night, I didn't bother to even open my eyes to look at her.

"Elena" I drawled out with no interest in my voice what so ever, I heard her footsteps again make there way over to me till they stopped in front of me. This was going to be fun I thought bleakly I opened my eyes to look up at her angered and hurt expression. "Do you need something?"

"Really that's all your going to say?! You were gone for months and that's all your going to say to me!" She shouted at me, I hated when she did this acted like she was my Mom or something. I was sick of her Miss Perfect act. I sighed throwing my head back against the chair.

"What do you want me to say, Elena?" I questioned a blank expression kept on my face to mask my anger that had slowly started to bubble. This only seemed to anger her more.

"Maybe sorry!" She shouted again I was about to respond, but she started to yell again. "Sorry that you left us when we needed you do you know how hard it was for me to deal with Mom and Dad dying and you leaving, you don't even feel sorry about it though do you?! Did you even care when Mom and Dad died or was this just an excuse to run off like you always do?!" That was the breaking point for me I let my anger show across my face, I snapped my attention directly to her I shot to my feet causing her to step back quickly her eyes wide once she saw my darkened expression.

"Don't you ever say anything like that to me again" I hissed out keeping my voice low I acted on instinct making my way out of the house as quickly as I could. Elena was calling out to me begging me to come back as if she regretted what she had said to me. However, I was already in my car and out the drive way doing what I did best once again. Running.
