It's been a week since the last time I tried kissing Damon. How desperate can I be? Ugh I simply came here to be here for Damon and the family, for extra help and support. I need to get my emotions out of the way.

I personally feel like it's one sided on my part. I just don't get that feeling anymore off of Damon. I have to understand that the pills he's taking will take awhile to adjust and maybe help on how he feels about certain things. He's utterly confused and I fully understand that after Cory explained everything to me. I just want him to feel again.

My eyes stay on Damon as I watch him sleep in his bed. I grab the water bottles that are all over his room. I pick them up and glance at Damon one more time until I hear the sound of chewing next to my ear. I turn to find Maxen eating out of a cereal box.

"Awww.." he mocks as he looks at Damon.

"I thought you left with Olivia and Charles?"

"I slept in." he picks at the back of his teeth.

I roll my eyes, "go take a shower max-"

Maxen cuts me off as he burps in my direction.

I shriek as my eyes close shut in disgust. I run after him and hit him with the water bottles in my hands. He's so lucky he got to his room in time as he lastly shuts the door on me in laughter.

I let out a heavy breath, I'm irritated. I look like a mess too. I need to clean myself before Damon sees me like this. Good thing he's asleep.

"I thought I heard someone screaming..." Damon walks out of his room, his eyes are still a bit shut as he walks into the bathroom. Great.

I quickly fix the poof on my head, combing through my curls with my fingers before he walks back out.

All I hear is Damon's urine hitting the toilet. I should just run to the guest room and change, he won't notice...

When I hear the flush, I instantly want to body slam myself into the ground. I'm so slow.

He walks out of the bathroom "Can you pass me that.." he gestures towards the half empty water bottle in my hand.

"Did you even wash your hands?"

He shrugs.

"Go wash your hands first." I flatly say.

He spits in his hand and rubs his hands together.

I gape in disgust. I'm terrified because Damon's expression doesn't change. If he isn't joking— "Don't tell me you always do that..."

I toss the warm water bottle at him as he catches it and smiles a little.

"Gross.." I can't help but smile back at him. "Go wash your hands properly."

I make my way downstairs and water the plants Olivia told me to. As I'm watering, I hear voices coming from the small wooden cottage that Damon is working on. I ignore it, until I hear ruggers voice. I walk towards the cottage and panic as I find Bianca and rugger making out.

This wasn't what I expected..

I find a small bag of white powdery substances in ruggers hand. The same kind Damon had the first time i met up with him and supposedly snorted it. I know it when I see it. Chills sent down my spine from thinking of it.

I quickly move away and make a sound with my foot that hits the broken sticks on the ground.

Worst of all, I find Damon coming out of the house, coming my way. I'm completely anxious and I can tell Damon is noticing it.

I stand right in front of him as he stares down at me for awhile. He looks into my watering can.

"It's still full.." he takes a sip out of his water as he stares at me.

I look up at him, "I need help.." I say as I get a hold of his arm and try to lead him to the front gate.

He stays silent for a bit as he tries reading me.

"No I'm busy." He walks past me, walking straight into the cottage.

What do I do..

It's not my business to protect anyone, but I know that if Damon saw what I saw, things will turn ugly very quickly.

I watch him get closer and closer to the cottage.
