Love Sucks - The Vampire Diaries - Damon Salvatore

*42*

"How do we kill it? We can't take her out the ring. She'll just go somewhere else."

Damon and I had straightened ourselves out and came back downstairs to work out what to do next with everyone else. I stopped by the door when I heard Stefan talk.

"We have to keep her in Olivias body...." Bonnie replied, sighing before continuing, "And then kill Olivia."

"We're not killing her!" Matt shouted out. We stayed by the door, not really wanting to go in incase they changed the conversation.

"But that's how we do it. She's attached herself to Olivia, so if Olivia dies then she must do too, right?" Bonnie questioned. "I'll stop her heart, then start it again. Once we're sure she's gone."

"How long do we have with Olivia dead?" Tyler's voice piped in now.

It was quiet for way too long. I thought I had missed it for a moment but then Bonnies words echoed around the house, "About 2 minutes."

"Two minutes is too long" Damon whispered, taking my hand and pushing open the door, "we'll think of something else."

Everyone turned to look at the two of us entering, "hey guys" Caroline smiled at us.

"So when we doing this?" I quickly asked before Damon could say anything.

"What? I thought -" Damon started but I held my hand up to stop him.

"I'll do it. I trust you Bonnie." I smiled to her, taking her hands in mine and squeezing them slightly. "I really do trust you."

10 minutes later, I was lying on the sofa waiting to be killed. Never thought I'd say that. Damon was sat on the floor next to me, holding my hand and kissing my knuckles every so often.

"OK. Damon you're gonna have to sit back a little." Bonnie placed her hand on his shoulder, "please."

"I'm gonna be right here when you wake up. I promise you." Damon whispered before kissing my cheek.

I smiled back and took a deep breath in, "come on then Bonnie. Let's get going."

Bonnie placed her hands over my body without touching me and started chanting.

"Oh I'm back. Wow." She moved round the room a few moments before realising she wasn't attached to Olivia, "well well well, what have we done here?" She smirked.

"You're no longer connected to her. So go away." Stefan said as she closed in on him

"Oh I'm not going anywhere sweetie. I'm no longer attached to her, but I don't have a living body to go back to. So I'm just here. Alone." Christie smirked as she rounded the room again, "maybe I'll get into Damon. Olivia likes you. You're her most powerful weapon."

"What do you mean?" Caroline asked, moving next to Damon and in front of Christie.

"She's been hurt so many times. So many ways. I can see them all etched into her brain. Every bruise, every scar, every burn. Peeling away her brain." Christie tried to get closer to Damon but Caroline blocked her. Christie smirked, "she starts thinking of you and the scars slowly disappear. I fade. I can't control her. Can't kill those she wants dead." She smirks looking over Elena and then back into Caroline's eyes. Caroline was frowning and keeping her burning eyes on Christie.

"You need to back away." Caroline threatened.

Christie held her hands up and walked away smirking. "Can't blame a girl looking for fun." She turned back to Stefan, "maybe the rippah!"

"That was a long time ago." Stefan bit the inside of the cheek, trying to hold back his frustration.

"Be fun though." She winked walking to the armchair and sitting down.

"I mean, come on guys, you'll all get bored of her. Boring human. She'll get old and die... oh wait....." Christie smirked and looked over to Olivias body on the couch.

"Get her back Bonnie." Damon ignored Christie and looked over to Bonnie

"I should be able to." Bonnie muttered before starting another chant.

"Should?" Damon shouted, frowning at Bonnie, "are you kidding!?"

"I'm sorry. But...please...." Bonnie mumbled before chanting again.

"Oh BonBon. She's gone. Don't even try. Just leave her there. Deaths much more interesting than life." Christie smirked, leaning over Bonnies shoulder looking at Olivias body.

"Ignore her Bonnie. Get her back." Damon shouted.

Bonnie continued to chant when a timer went off. "That's two minutes. Why isn't she awake!?" Tyler shouted, moving over to the couch with Damon, Matt, Caroline and Stefan. Elena did sit forward a little bit in her chair, but didn't get up.

Damon took Olivias hand. And just as he did Christie started coughing. A dry cough as if something was lodged in her throat. "What's happening?"

Suddenly a stake appeared in her chest, right at her heart. Then a hand, an arm and a body. It was Olivia.

"I don't know how, but I am so glad I get to kill you. For good." Olivia spat in Christie's face.

Christie smirked, "see? Killing is fun." With that Christie faded to grey and disappeared.

Olivia smiled, turning to the group staring at her and seeing her body on the couch, "guess I better come back." Olivia stepped forward and disappeared.

I wake up with a jolt and struggle for breath, "Is she gone? Is that it?" I ask, looking round at everyone, Damon still holding my hand.

"You, you don't remember?" Matt asked, frowning.

"Remember what?" I looked at everyone, lastly Damon. "What don't I remember?"

"You killed her."
