Travel Back in Time Chapter 6

Travel Back in Time Chapter 6

A/N: First of all before I give any details about this chapter away, thank you all so much for reviewing!! It means everything to me! You guys rock!! ;) 

For this chapter I'm going to be switching back and forth between past and present time. The beginning will take place in the present where Bonnie is trying to reverse the time traveling spell and it will show Elena's hate for Damon and how it's slowly growing into worry and concern for his whereabouts. 

Enjoy! Hope this makes up for the shortness in chapter 5. That was more of a filler chapter then anything.

Present day

Bonnie sighed in frustration as she ran her hands through her mangled up hair. For weeks she has been looking through every book, trying to find a spell to bring Damon back but it was proving futile as every spell book turned out useless. "I wish grams was here." Bonnie moaned out to the empty room, surrounded by nothing but books. She missed her grams at times, and felt an inward hatred for Damon whenever she saw him but pushed it aside. Even though she wants to burn his body into ashes, she knew Stefan would never forgive her, and strangely enough she knew Elena would be pissed too.

She didn't know how age knew this, but somewhere deep inside Elena, apart of her deeply cared for him.

...

Elena sighed, dropping the pen she was holding and closed her diary. It has been over a week since Damon got sent back in time and while she couldn't be happier that she hadn't seen him due to him trying to kill her brother, a twinge of concern was resting at the pit of her stomach. She didn't know how or why, but for some explicable reason, she still cared for him. She knew it was stupid to feel this way about him after what he did, so why were these feelings coming to the surface? Was it because she missed him? Was it because she still cared about him and wanted him to remain safe? She didn't know, but she did know that it was ridiculous to feel this way about him. He killed her brother, so she should hate him forever. But she couldn't, no matter how much she wanted too, she couldn't.

Past time

Damon walked into Elena's room after making a truce with Grayson. He still couldn't believe that he made an agreement with him. But he knew that this wasn't over. He could tell that Grayson was planning something the moment he shook his hand. He didn't trust that guy one bit, but he had to play along for Elena's sake. He didn't want to have another Elena who hated him. One was enough.

Elena looked up at Damon as he walked over to her, a small hint of fear in her eyes as he squatted down next to her. "I'm not gonna hurt you." Damon spoke softly, softly touching Elena's cheek. Elena filched, backing away from him slightly. 

"Why are you in here? Where's Daddy?"

Damon sighed. He didn't want to do this, but he had to. He had to make her forget about John and all the things he did to her. She was too small to be going through this. "Elena, you are going to forget what John did to you, but you will remember that I killed him but only because he was trying to hurt me." Damon finished his compulsion and started to head for the door when Elena's tiny voice stopped him.

"Wait."

Damon turned around and saw Elena holding her arms up to him, obviously wanting him to pick her up. Damon gave her a confused look. "Elena, what happened to be scared of me?"

"I trust you. You killed Unky John because he was hurting you."

Damon smiled sadly at her. God he hated that he messed with her memories but he wanted her to have her innocence intact. It was selfish, but he didn't care. She didn't need to be thinking about John and all the terrible things that he did to her. Somehow, he knew that things were only to get better from here. 

Elena laughed as Damon picked her up, holding her close to his chest as he breathed in her sweet smelling hair. He could never get enough of her amazing smell. It was intoxicating, to say the least. She smiled as she looked into his eyes with adoration. "Are you gonna stay with me?"

Damon nodded, his eyes glowing with love for this small child that in another world was the girl he loved so much. "I'm not going anywhere."

Elena leaned into his chest and closed her eyes as Damon kissed her softly, watching as her brown locks of hair drape over her face, making her look even more breathtaking. It broke his heart that he was going to have to leave her once Bonnie found a spell to bring him back, but he knew that she would be safe in this time. There were no threats in this world like there was in his. Nothing could hurt her now that John is gone. 

His mind wandered briefly to the future and wondered if this would affect his time. Would John be alive? Would Elena still hate him? Or would she have forgiven him for killing her brother? Only way to find out was to get back to the present time and find out. 

Miranda's voice interrupted Damon's thoughts and he sighed as he went downstairs after laying Elena down in her bed and kissing her goodnight. If this was about Grayson wanting to talk to him, then he did not want to hear it. He didn't want to have to deal with him right now. 

"Damon, there's someone here to see you and Elena!" Miranda's voice wavered from the kitchen. 

Damon's ears perked up instantly and he walked faster into the kitchen, stopping abruptly at the sight before him. His breath stayed in his throat and his eyes widened as Miranda shot him a strange look. "What's wrong Damon?"

"Yes Damon, what's wrong? I thought you would be happy to see me." the voice echoed in Damon's ear but he refused to believe it.

"You're not-" Damon tried to speak but was immediately caught off guard as the figure used vampire speed to get infront of him. 

Her breath caused bone chilling shivers to claw at Damon's back as he stayed in a dead locked staring contest. Her eyes narrowed playfully and she let out a small giggle. "Shame on you Damon. I can't believe you forget about dear old sweet Katherine."

"What the hell do you want and why are you here?" Damon seemed to regain his voice as he increased his speaking volume, eyes slowly turning red as his protective instinct kicked in. 

"I just followed you from the future. Didn't want you getting lonely without me around. You might just turn into boring, brooding Stefan if you have no excitement in your life. You don't mind do you?" Her playful cat grin irritated Damon to no end.

Leaning his face in until their faces were particularly touching, Damon spat lividly in her face. "Stay away from me. Stay away from this house, and most importantly, stay the fuck away from Elena or I swear i will not hesitate to drive a stake through your cold, undead, beating heart."

Katherine smirked as she watched Damon bathe in a pool of rage. "Always the protector. So cute. But before I go I must let you know that someone else is here too. Someone that wants Elena and will stop at nothing to have her. She's the key to breaking the curse. The vampire and werewolf curse."

"And who the hell wants her?"

Katherine's lips curled into a smile. "Ask nicely and I'll tell you."

Faster then the eye could blink, Damon slammed Katherine up against the wall, his breath coming out in angry rasps. His eyes glowed with anger, swimming in his oceanic blue orbs. "Tell me who is coming after Elena you nasty, manipulative, little bitch."

Katherine easily broke free of Damon's hold and turned around to Miranda who was standing there in a state of shock, "Leave this kitchen and forget everything you saw." Once she was gone, Katherine turned back to the enraged Damon and ran her hands up his buttoned up shirt, grinning slyly. "You need to learn manners Damon. Maybe then you'll get your answer. And if you're serious about me staying away from here, then fine I will. I just came here to help you protect sweet little Elena but if you don't want it then fine. I'll leave." 

"Wait!" Damon called but it was too late. Katherine vanished.

Present time

"Have you seen Katherine?" Bonnie asked Elena as they were walking down the hallways of the school. 

"Nope, and I'm not worried about her. I don't want my mind constantly on supernatural things. I need to do human stuff or else I'm going to go crazy."

Bonnie nodded, her mind still worried. "What about D-" 

Elena let out a huge sigh as she turned towards her best friend. "Bonnie, what part of  'i don't want to hear about supernatural' don't you understand? I don't ever want to here the D word from here on out. I don't want to hear anything that has to do with vampires. All I want is to do this carnival for Caroline and be a happy, normal teenage girl. Is that really too much to ask for?"

Bonnie sighed as she continued walking with Elena. The subject was dropped for now, but she knew that when Katherine reared her ugly head they would all go back into the world of fiction and make believe. She only hoped she could get the reversal spell ready for Damon in time before Katherine strikes again.
