Damon and Elena were lying on the bed, Elena’s head resting on Damon’s chest. “I believe we’ve been here before” Elena mumbled.
“Hmm” Damon confirmed. “Do anda remember what anda berkata back then?”
Elena relegated on the katil and closed her eyes. “I berkata I wouldn’t leave you, that I would stay with anda until the very end”
“You should know that no matter what happens I’m not leaving you” Damon promised softly. Elena felt a teardrop on her head, but she didn’t look up. “Promise me anda won’t either”
“I promise” Elena whispered and she pinched Damon’s hand. She knew it was a lie. She knew that no matter how much medication she was taking, the cancer had already won. She could literally feel her body shutting down. Though doctor Meredith Fell really did the best she could, they had just been too late. They should’ve never listened to Bonnie.
“We still have options” Damon berkata hoarse. “If I give anda some of my blood…”
“We’ve been through that, Damon” Elena replied, but there was no anger in her voice. “I’m not drinking your blood”
“But anda could heal” Damon protested.
“According to Caroline vampire blood only heals injuries, no diseases” Elena commented.
“It’s worth a shot” Damon tried to convince her.
“No, it’s not. I won’t risk becoming a vampire” Elena refused.
Damon sat up and looked angry at his sick girlfriend. “But anda will risk dying?”
“Maybe it’s just my time” Elena suggested casual.
“You’re eighteen, for crying out loud!” Damon exclaimed. He got off the bed. “You’re selfish, do anda know that? I know it must be hard to hear this from me, the most selfish person on the planet, but right now you’re selfish. anda have a fair chance to conquer this. Your brother needs you, your Friends need you…I need you. All it takes is for anda to accept my blood, but you’d rather die. Why is that, exactly?”
Elena had started crying during Damon’s outburst. The medication made her extra emotional.
“Is it so hard for anda to understand I don’t want to be a vampire? That maybe one hari I want to have a family, grow old with the man I love?”
“None of those things is going to happen, if you’re dead, Elena!” Damon snarled. “And actually how were anda planning to have a family? I can’t make babies! Are anda going to hump into katil with Matt so he can loan anda his seed?”
Elena slapped him hard in the face.
“I’m not drinking your blood, Damon” she replied soft, but determined.
“Fine” Damon grunted and he walked towards the door. “I’ll go find myself a stake. If anda can’t see a reason to live, then I can’t either. I’m not spending an eternity without you”
