Damon's ring in all its mighty glory

Bonnie closed her suitcase and lifted it from the ground. She carried it, but it was really heavy. She needed Caroline for this. After all she would need a place to stay when she left the clinic. Which was today. She had signed her release.
“Are 당신 going somewhere?” a male voice asked. Bonnie waited for Keith to catch up with her. Maybe he could carry her suitcase for her. And indeed, as soon as he was standing 다음 to her he said: “Here, let me do that”
He took the suitcase out of her hands and released Bonnie from her burden.
“So, are 당신 leaving?” he asked.
“Yeah, I feel a lot...

Elena was leaning against the door trying to hear what was being said when Damon pushed the door open. Elena rubbed her temple and looked angry at Damon.
He frowned, then got the picture. “Sorry” he mumbled.
“Where’s Kat?” Elena informed.
“Gone” Damon said short. “She won’t bother to come here…ever”
Elena gave him a weird look, but decided not to ask any further. Not about Kat, anyway. “Was that Caroline? I thought I heard her voice”
“Yeah, but she’s gone too” Damon said.
“Why?” Elena asked.
“I sent her away” Damon said, avoiding Elena’s look.
Elena shook...

“What the hell are 당신 doing here?” he asked shaking.
“I’m just paying Elena a visit” Katherine said casual. “That’s all”
“How dare 당신 come around here?” Damon said. “After what 당신 did? 당신 attacked Elena, 당신 almost got me killed”
“I tried to convince 당신 to drink blood, but Rebekah compelled you” Katherine tried to explain. “Which is why I told 당신 당신 have to drink vervain again”
“I want 당신 gone” Damon said threatening. “I want 당신 out of our lives, for good”
Katherine shook her head. “You need me, Damon”
“No, I don’t” Damon disagreed. “I...

Caroline walked out of the grocery 샵 and closed the door. She turned around and bumped into Tyler.
“Sorry” she mumbled and wanted to walk away, but Tyler called her.
“Caroline, wait up” he said.
Caroline held her steps, but didn’t turn around. Tyler walked to her.
“Hey, I’m…I’m sorry for last time” he started uneasy. “I was a little uptight”
Caroline raised an eyebrow. “You didn’t act uptight, Tyler. 당신 acted like a jerk”
“I know, but I’m trying to explain myself here” Tyler continued.
Caroline shuffled with her left foot over the paving. She then looked...

Jeremy ran through the hallway of the hospital. Stefan had given him a call to fill him in and he had also mentioned in which room Elena was ‘staying’. Ignoring the reproaching of several doctors and nurses and other medical staff he opened the door and stopped to breathe.
“Jeremy, why aren’t 당신 at school?” Elena asked a little harsh.
“I was there” Jeremy said. “But then Stefan called me, saying 당신 were sick”
Elena looked away. “He shouldn’t have said that” she said grumpy. Jeremy walked to the 침대 and sank down. “How are 당신 feeling?”
“I’m fine” Elena said...

Caroline was waiting in the doorway while Bonnie put on her shoes. They were going out for a walk in the garden.
“How’s life in here?” Caroline asked casual.
“ ‘s Okay, I guess” Bonnie said. “Little boring though”
Caroline scoffed. “I wish I could say the same” she mumbled.
“What do 당신 mean?” Bonnie asked concerned.
Caroline shook her head. “Come on, let’s go”
Five 분 later they were walking through the garden. Caroline whistled. “This place really is beautiful”
“Caroline” Bonnie said a little harsh. “I know 당신 didn’t just come over. There’s something...

The late September sun warmed Elena’s face and she opened her eyes. She saw Damon sitting in what looked like a very uncomfortable chair.
Perhaps Damon felt Elena’s eyes on him because he opened his. When he saw Elena was awake he quickly sat up.
“How are 당신 feeling?” he asked hoarse. “Can’t believe I actually fell asleep”
“Can’t believe 당신 actually fell asleep in that chair” Elena said with raised eyebrows. “Why didn’t 당신 가입하기 me? There’s plenty of room”
“I wasn’t supposed to fall asleep” Damon said obvious. Elena wanted to 코멘트 on that when someone knocked...

Stefan and Rebekah were driving. They had stopped to get their selves a late night snack and now they were on their way home.
“Can 당신 try and call Damon for me, please?” Stefan asked, his eyes on the road. Rebekah conjured her phone and dialed Damon’s number, which Stefan had given her.
“Goes straight to voicemail” Rebekah said. She turned to Stefan. “I’m sure he’ll be okay. He’s got that boy looking out for him”
Stefan shook his head. “Derek’s just a teenager. Damon was in no good shape when I last saw him. I think he might be really sick”
“Then let’s go check on...

These doors need to be oiled, Keith thought as he opened the door of Bonnies room. He walked to the 침대 and sank down.
Bonnie turned on her back in her 침대 and opened her eyes a bit. When she saw Keith her eyes widened and she sat straight.
“What the hell are 당신 doing here? Go away! I’m going to call security! Get out!” she hissed.
“Ssshh” Keith said. “I’m just here to watch 당신 sleep. Isn’t that romantic?”
“No!” Bonnie whispered loud. “Not if you’re the one watching”
“So, you’re not going to sleep, because I am here?” Keith asked. “Well, in that case, we might...

Five days later.
Derek was rushing through the kitchen, setting the breakfast 표, 테이블 when slow footsteps were heard on the stairs. Derek raced to the stairs and tried to help Damon keep his balance. Damon tried to push him away, but was too weak.
“I made breakfast” Derek said.
“Gee, thanks” Damon mumbled sarcastic. He shuffled to the 부엌, 주방 and fell down on a chair. He looked down at the 표, 테이블 and picked up the blood bag. “This is breakfast?” he asked Derek.
“You have to drink it, Damon” Derek insisted. “It’s been five days. 당신 will die if 당신 don’t”
Damon shrugged. “Then...

Tyler parked his car on the parking lot of the Mystic Grill. He saw Caroline leaning against the 벽 outside drinking some Bourbon. He hoped she wouldn’t look up. But as he made his way to the entrance she looked up.
“Tyler?” she said surprised.
Just keep walking, Tyler thought.
“I know 당신 can hear me, Tyler” Caroline said uncomprehending. “Why are 당신 avoiding me?”
Tyler stopped and walked towards Caroline. “Caroline, hi” he forced himself to say. He scratch his hair, feeling uncomfortable. “Don’t you…don’t 당신 have school to go to?”
“Lunch break” Caroline explained....
