Third POV.
Ruth sat laughing at Elena as she fell over in the living room, Ruth purposely tripping her up. Elena looked to her little sister and glared. "Oh, you're so going down for that." Elena glared, stood up and ran to her sister. She tackled Ruth onto the floor and put her in a choke hold. Ruth groaned in slight pain, she then grabbed her sister's wrist, yanked it causing Elena to yelp, she then tightly gripped her sister's forearms and flipped her over her shoulder.
Elena fell to the floor and groaned in pain, Ruth laughed at her sister and went to open the door as someone knocked on it. The two were play fighting to take their minds off of the fact that their aunt Jenna knew about John being Elena's biological father.
Ruth opens the door and sees Damon's stern face, his eyes were still sad from Rose's death, as Ruth believes her eyes are too. She smiles at him, all he does is looks around the house and asks, "Where's John?"
Ruth groaned at the mention of the man, she was starting to hate that name. "He's not here, he left." She tells him, then looks to Elena's crumpled figure laying on the floor in the living room. Her sister called out from where she was.
"We don't know where he went. He just blew in, announced to Jenna that he's my dad, and then took off." Damon shook his head in confusion, Ruth just snorted at his face, Elena's face was still crumpled in pain, Ruth must have winded her.
"That's public knowledge now?" He asks Ruth. She nods, then slightly shrugs. "He said what he was doing here?"
"No. You know, Stefan thinks that he's telling the truth about wanting to help me and Elena." She informs Damon, he really did seem like he wanted to help them, but then again, it is John, he is a liar.
"Do you believe him?" His eyes don't leave hers for a second, she shrugs.
"I'd like to, but knowing what he's done before, I don't think so." Elena groans in agreement from her spot.
"Me neither."
"What are we gonna do?" Elena calls out, slowly regaining her breath.
"Kill him." Ruth glares at the man as he turns to leave.
"Angel eyes..." He groans in annoyance and then turns around.
"I'm joking." He looks at Ruth's face. "Okay, I'm a little serious." Ruth snaps at him.
"Damon!" He looks to her.
"I'm not gonna hurt him, Ruth. I'm the good guy now, remember?" She looks to him in confusion, and Elena shouts.
"What does that mean?" Damon smirks a little and looks to Elena.
"I'm gonna have a civil conversation with your father." He then looks to Ruth and winks. He then walks out the door. Ruth grabs her cardigan, writhes Elena off the floor and shouts.
"Wait, we're coming with you!" They run after him, they get to Damon's car and Ruth pushes Elena out of the way to get in the front seat. She stumbles, but then gets in the back. Ruth giggles at her sister's glaring face.
They arrive at the Grill and walk in. Elena speaks to Damon as the walk to the table John is on. "We just need answers. Please don't do anything stupid." Damon looks offended, and Ruth chortles.
"Yeah, but stupid is so much more fun." Elena glares slightly and snaps.
"Damon, I mean it. All I'm asking is you try to keep it together. Be the better man." She walks over to the table and Damon looks down slightly. Ruth stops him and looks up at him.
