I Won't Forget

Hmm.

He shuts the journal and places it back on the counter.

Sorry. We don't work with others very well.

Damon and Inanna exit the motel room

Inanna POV

Gonna tell me what were doing here now? you werent so chatty in the car ride

My father was buried with the grimoire

so were digging up your old man? interesting

what's so interesting?

I've never dug up a dead body before, you know not a lot of people can say they did

X

Well, what do you know?

Elena and Stefan, startled, turned around to see Damon and Me.

Damon's lip curled up in a snarl.

This is an interesting turn of events.

I can't let you bring her back. I'm sorry.

So am I.
For thinking for even a second that I could trust you.

Oh. You're not capable of trust. The fact that you're here means that you read the journal and you were planning on doing this alone, but Inanna stuck around

Of course I was going to do it by myself because the only one I can count on is me! You made sure of that many years ago, Stefan. But you...

Damon looked at me

You had me fooled.

Damon looked hurt and I looked ashamed.

So, what are you going to do now?
Because if you try and destroy that, I'll rip her heart out.

You won't kill her.

Damon nodded, knowing Stefan was right.

Instead, he vamp-speeds over to Elena and grabbed her in a chokehold.

I can do one better.

Damon bit his wrist and forced Elena to drink his blood.

Elena struggled

Damon! I yelled

Give me the book, Stefan, or I'm snapping her neck. And you and I will have a vampire girlfriend.

Let her go first.

Damon pulled his wrist away from Elena's mouth.

The book!

I'm not going to give this to you until she is standing next to me.

Problem is, I no longer trust that you'll give it back!

Give him the fucking book Stefan!

You just did the one thing that ensures that I will.

Damon, still keeping Elena in a chokehold, nodded at Stefan.

Okay.

Stefan, eyes filled with terror, slowly placed the book on the ground and reached out for Elena.

Damon placed his face against Elena's hair, looking as if he might not let her go, but slowly he pulled his arm away from her. Elena slowly edged to the side of the grave, then quickly jumped over it and into Stefan's arms.

Stefan wrapped her in a warm embrace.

Elena looked at Damon, terrified, and Stefan and her walk out of the woods together. Damon watched them go and picked up the grimoire.

Are you happy now I said tears in my eyes

Inanna...

No, Fuck you, Damon, you were ready to kill my sister

I wasn't....

Oh, right you were going to transform her into a fucking vampire

I walked up to Damon and punched him in the guts

That's for hurting my sister you ignorant fuck

I won't forget this I said stabbing him with a wooden stick found on the ground

Goodbye Damon

I heard him groan in pain as I left the cemetery

third person POV

Stefan was leaning against the doorway in the bathroom as he watched Elena who was searching the drawers for an Aspirin.

Aspirin must be downstairs. Is my head supposed to hurt like this?

Oh, you'll be fine. That was just a small amount of blood. It should pass out of your system by tomorrow.

Elena walked towards Stefan.

Stefan rubbed her back and Elena looks up at him.

Are you OK?

Damon was right. This is, uh...this is my fault.

Inanna POV

I walked inside the house hearing Elena's voice upstairs

I ran up as fast as I could

Elena! I yelled

Inanna..

I ran and grabbed her hugging her tightly

Inanna..cant...breath...

oh sorry I said putting her down

I'm so sorry I should've done...something anything

It's ok, im fine

Elena...I love you and I won't let this happen again

I promise I said putting my pinky finger up

pinky promise

She smiled and locked her pinky in mine

I smiled and hugged her once again

I took a step back and looked up to Stefan who was standing beside Elena

a silence fell upon us until I jumped into his arms

Thank you I whispered

He hugged me back and rubbed my back

real question is, are you okay he asked pulling back

oh, you know, nothing a glass of whisky won't fix i said making them giggle

but really I'm fine, im just happy that were ok.
