Damon wished he would stay unconscious until he died, so he wouldn’t have to feel anything anymore. Part of him wondered why he didn’t just switch off his humanity, so he wouldn’t feel any pain. But if he wouldn’t feel the pain, neither would he feel the joy he felt when he thought about Elena.
Elena. Damon hoped she would never hear that message on her voicemail. He hoped Stefan would be decent enough to erase that message.
Stefan. Damon knew his brother hated him, but this much? Then why did he sacrifice himself to save his life? Why did he join Klaus to get the cure? And where was Bonnie this time? He didn’t hear her breathing or walking. Maybe she was gone for now. God, he hoped so. He searched the ground, hoping his cell phone would still be there. He was lucky, or maybe Bonnie had left it there on purpose.
Damon carefully let his fingers glide over the keys. Since he had installed Elena’s number as 1 in his favorites it wasn’t too hard to dial it.
He waited until her voicemail came up. At this time of night she was probably sleeping.
‘Hi, you’ve reached Elena Gilbert, leave a message after the beep’
“Elena?” Damon said weak. “Please don’t come here. By the time you would find me I’ll be dead. I know you don’t want to listen to me, but there’s nothing you can do. There’s no reason to endanger yourself. So please stay away…Goodbye, Elena…I love you”
“Awww” Bonnie said. She was back. “That was really touching”
