Damon sank back down to his knees, I kneeled down beside him.

"Damon?" I whispered. He looked up at me, his eyes full of shock.

"He's going to be a little out of sorts for a few days, you might want to get him home." I heard Tabitha say behind me. I turned to face her. She was standing with hand on her hip, her head cocked to the side with the most amused look on her face.

"Why are you doing this?" I hissed.

"Because I hate him." She snapped back.

In a flash I was up grabbing her by the throat, lifting her up with one hand.

"I'm going to need a detailed explanation bitch." I let her drop to her feet where she stumbled for a moment.

"Fine...I really hate him. He tried to kill me just a few days ago!" She yelled. "Plus think about it Elena. What better person to do this to than a vampire that completely abandoned his humanity!"

I looked back to Damon who was now sitting up against the wall holding his head between his palms.

I turned back to Tabitha.

"I can hear his heart beating. His breathing. Did you really turn him back? Is he human again?" I asked.

"Yeah." She replied, her brows raising.

"Why do you seem surprised?" I asked.

"Because I am surprised. I didn't think It would actually work." She smiled and shook her head in disbelief.

"So what's your exact motive for doing this? Besides him trying to kill you. I mean...why didn't you just kill him somehow?" I asked hating the sound of it on my tongue.

"Elena. Death is not something Damon would consider the worst thing. Damon has been angry and hurt for several lifetimes but he's been able to turn it off at will. That's why its always so easy for him. And as far as I know, the only wall he let down was to let love in from you. But now, everything that's made him angry, everything that's made him hurt and all the evil deeds he has done...well, he's going to have to deal with it now. I just want to remind him what being a human feels like."

"Clever." I Whispered.

"Keep your mouth shut about your little love affair with him. If he figures it out, so be it. But I'm tired of everything being served on a silver platter to him Elena. So leave it alone. Or I'll have him killed. It would be so easy...now." She turned and walked away. I Watched her disappear behind the corner of the alley way. I turned and rushed to Damon who was still sitting against the building holding his head.

"Damon, are you okay?" I asked feeling panicked.

"My head...it's pounding." He managed to choke out.

"Come on, let me get you back to the house." I said putting my arm around his waist and pulling him up with almost no effort. I was struck by his scent so strongly I almost dropped him. It was so sweet and strong I could barely manage to keep myself composed. We made our way to the car and I got in. I kept to the speed limit, considering Damon's newly required safety. Once we were inside the house I helped him up the stairs and to his room. He fall onto the bed and wrapped his arms around himself.

"Elena, why do I feel this way?" He asked, his voice sounded hoarse and weak. I sat down on the edge of the bed and ran my hand down the side of his face. It was so warm, his pulse quickened and it seemed like thunder to my ears in the quiet house.

"Because your alive." I answered.
