[20] We All Go a Little Mad Sometimes

When I woke up, I heard voices coming from downstairs. I only furrowed my eyebrows, confused, while rubbing the sleep out of my eyes. I looked around my disheveled room, that hadn't been touched in ages since I moved out.

After what happened with Klaus, I decided to move back in with Elena and Jeremy for the time being. Just because I slept with him, doesn't make any of that ok. 

When I walked down stairs and came into the living room, I saw Elena and Damon. I raised an eyebrow, before noticed Jeremy on the couch, dead. My eyes widened.

"What the hell happened?!" I cried, before running to his side. I noticed the ring on his finger, but still looked back at Elena and Damon, looking for answers.

"Elena here decided it was a good idea to stick a knife into Jeremy's throat."Damon spoke. I snapped my head over to Elena, who looked guilty.

"I'm-I'm sorry I don't know what happened, then the next thing I knew, I stabbed Jeremy in the neck." she responded, shaken. I raised my eyebrows, look at Damon, but he just shrugged.

Then, the door opened and closed, revealing that Stefan just arrived to the house. "Hey." he greeted. "P.S, I called Stefan." Damon informed us. Elena gave him a look, and I just looked at both of them, confused.

"What happened? Why didn't you call me?" Stefan questioned Elena. 

"I just - I need to go upstairs and shower. Clean all the blood off my hands." is the only thing she replied with before heading upstairs. Jeremy then gasped awake, startling me.

"Jer!" I sighed, relieved. I hugged him, and he hugged me, before I turned to look back at both Stefan and Damon. 

"Welcome back. How are you feeling?" Stefan asked.

"What happened?" Jeremy said.

"Long story. Buy the E-book." Damon responded, before walking away. I only rolled my eyes, before helping Jeremy up off the couch, and sending him to our other bathroom.

Stefan and I exchanged looks before I sighed and went upstairs, getting ready for the day.

When I walked downstairs, I saw Stefan stepping outside, and I raised an eyebrow, turning and going into the kitchen where Damon was cleaning up.

"Where's he going?" I questioned.

"Playdate with Klaus." he smirked. I only rolled my eyes, before starting to help him clean up the mess, there was only a small amount of blood left, splattered on the countertop.

Elena walked into the kitchen, and I smiled at her, but that smile quickly disappeared when I saw the distressed look on her face.

"Damon.." she trailed, before she started backing up, with fear in her eyes.

"Elena?" Damon and I both said at the same time, before exchanging looks. I started moving closer to her, and I grabbed her arm, making her rip it away.

"No!" she cried, before running. 

"What's wrong?" Damon asked.

"Elena!" I called, before running after her. When Elena opened the door, I spotted both Klaus and Stefan, and before I knew it, both her and I were whisked away to a building I didn't recognize.

Klaus had Elena in a headlock, and wrapped his hand around my wrist. I tried to rip it away, but that just resulted in him holding on tighter which I knew was going to leave a mark later.
