Stefan Salvatore's daughter ~ Miracle

68. The rebirth of my misunderstanding

- Damon... I call my uncle with annoyment as him and I walk out of the boarding house. We approach his blue car. I walk to the passenger side and open the door.

- Hey, Boo, I look up as I don't sit in his car yet. Suddenly, Uncle Damon throws me his car keys. I catch them before frowning confused as him. I let you drive today, he tells me as he walks around his car to come over the passenger side. I smile brightly before hugging him rapidly and excited.

- Thanks so much, Uncle Damon!! I'll be careful, I promise, I tell him as I run around the car to go to the driver side.

- You better. This car is my baby. I never let anyone driving it. You're a lucky woman, he tells me while sitting on the passenger side. I sit on the driver seat and start the car. I smile before driving to the Gilbert's house with my uncle next to me.

Elena's P.O.V.

I gasp for air and wake up, breathing rapidly and panicking. What happened? Why am I alive? What... What is going on? I look around the room, recognizing immediately my bedroom as I remark that it is the day. When I was unconscious, I remember hearing the sounds of church bells ringing, sirens echoing with yard work going on... It was so weird. My breathing calms down slowly as I see Stefan sitting at the end of my bed, looking worried at me. Why is he here? Why those eyes?

- Stefan? I call him with a nervous tone.

- Hey. I'm right here. You've been in and out for hours, tells me gently, reassuringly and calmly, the vampire.

- Wh... what happened? I ask him, still breathing nervously.

- You were in an accident, answers seriously and with sorriness, Stefan.

- Oh my God. Matt is he...? I begin to ask, panicking again when someone interrupts me.

- Alive? questions, Damon as I see him sitting on the window seat next to my bed. Gillian is sitting next to her uncle, looking down at the floor as she moves her foot nervously. Both, Stefan and I look at him. Ask Stefan. The hero, responds, Damon, sounding upset at Stefan when he said "hero". I look back at Stefan, still frowning worried for my friend.

- He's fine, whispers and nods, the vampire.

- Thank you, I thank him as I let a breath of relief out. I thought that I... how did you...?

- Save you? He didn't, cuts me and responds, Damon with madness as he stares at his little brother. Just like he didn't save Gillian on time, I see Stefan looking down with a sad frown as he seems upset at himself. I frown confused while looking back at Stefan. The vampire looks back up at me, sighing.

- When Jeremy brought you to the hospital before all this happened, your injuries were worse than anyone knew. Meredith Fell made a choice, she used Damon's blood to heal you, begins to explain, Stefan.

- And when Rebekah ran Matt's truck off the road, you had vampire blood in your system, Elena, finishes explaining, Damon. I see Gillian's legs moving faster and faster as she doesn't seem fine. I stare at both vampire brothers alternately as I start to panic again.

- Oh my God. Does... does that mean that I... am I dead? I question to them in panic. Neither, Stefan or Damon say a word. They both look down, looking sorry and upset. No, no, no, no! That wasn't supposed to happen! I say with panic as I shake my head. It can't be happening...

- Maybe it doesn't have to. I talked to Bonnie, she says she's stronger than ever, there might be something that she can do to help you, suggests, Stefan as he talks with a reassuring tone.
