Elena had pulled up the sheets. She was getting cold. After Damon had left she’d started crying again and her face was wet from tears. Was this one of the many side effects chemo had? Or was this part of the cancer?
“Hi, there” a small voice said from the end of the bed.
“Go away” Elena said with heavy voice. “I don’t want anyone to see me like this” She added as she tried to dry her eyes.
“I know, which is why I brought this” Caroline said secretive and she lifted a bag. She walked towards the bed. “I’m going to make you all pretty again. Now, make some room”
Elena sat up slowly, so Caroline could sink down on the bed. She searched in the bag. “We have lip gloss, nail polish, mascara, some eyeliner, make a choice”
Elena shrugged, not in the least caring.
“Okay, then I will choose myself” Caroline continued, trying to be cheerful for Elena’s sake. “We’ll start with your nails”
She opened the vial and dabbed the brush in it. She took Elena’s hand and began to polish her nails.
“For the record, this was Stefan’s idea” she said casual.
“I should’ve known. This is so typical Stefan” Elena mumbled.
“Elena, if I had known Bonnie was going to try and hurt you, I would’ve never told you about that tea. I believed she was trying to make amends and I wanted to give her a second chance, because I thought she deserved it, but…she fooled me again” she apologized breathless, suddenly all emotional.
Elena frowned. “Caroline, hey,…I’m not blaming you. I’m not blaming Bonnie, either. This is just something that had to happen. No one could’ve foreseen this. We just have to hope that I’ll get better”
Caroline looked Elena straight in the eye. “You don’t think you will, do you? Tell me the truth”
Elena, who wasn’t wearing her vervain necklace and didn’t drink vervain tea, because it would mix with the meds, answered in all honesty. “No, I don’t. I think I’m going to die. I feel weaker every day. I believe it’s a matter of days. Then I’ll be dead”
When Elena woke from her trance Caroline was gone.

De tweevoudige Grammywinnaar Bruno Mars kan opnieuw opgelucht ademhalen. De zanger heeft woensdag voor een rechter toegegeven dat hij zich schuldig heeft gemaakt aan cocaïnebezit. De 25-jarige artiest ontloopt door zijn schuldbekentenis een celstraf.
Mars, die gigantische hits had met "Just the Way You Are" en "Grenade", heeft wel een geldboete van 2.000 dollar en een taakstraf van tweehonderd uur gekregen. Hij mag het komende jaar ook niet in de fout gaan, want anders vliegt hij alsnog achter de tralies.
De zanger werd in september gearresteerd met 2,6 gram cocaïne op zak. Hij werd betrapt in de toiletten van het Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas nadat hij had opgetreden in een plaatselijke discotheek. (Belga / LEE)

“Can I come in? This talks so…weird, you know. And if Veronica sees us…” Stefan said warning.
“I’m not afraid of Veronica” Rachel said in such way it sounded like she meant the opposite.
Katherine was dragging Gabe’s corpse to the backside of Rachel’s house. She couldn’t get inside the house, so she opened the window to the basement and pushed Gabe’s body inside. She held his shoulders and let him down carefully. When she thought it was safe she let go. The corpse fell on the basement floor, mute for a human ear, but as Katherine heard the thump, she figured Rachel would’ve too.
“Damn it” she mouthed. She stood and looked around. Rachel was nowhere to be seen and from what Katherine could hear, she was still listening philosophized to Stefan. If Rachel had heard anything, she sure didn’t suspect anything.
