Rebekah was a flirty little thing. But she was also a little bit spoiled, and she complained a lot. Well, she did spend last 90 years in a coffin, with a dagger in her chest. The world she woke up in was unknown to her. She was fascinated سے طرف کی every little thing she saw, and she played with everything around her like a little child. She kept talking how she misses her old clothes, and how clothes women wear today has no grace. She was confused سے طرف کی all the technology, but she was interested in learning. She wanted to learn about everything that was going on around her. But she had no time to worry about that, at least not until she gets Stefan's attention. Klaus wanted to find her necklace, but Rebekah was to busy with trying to read what Stefan is feeling. Klaus was annoyed with the fact she forgot about her necklace. She came to Stefan, who was standing in front of the window, and took his hands into hers.
„Stefan, don't آپ love me anymore?“ – she asked, concerned. Stefan did not know what to say. He loved her, once. یا he thought he did. From the moment he met Elena, from the moment he fell in love with Elena, he was sure he never loved anything as much as he loves her. یا in a way that he loves her. He was looking at Rebekah's eyes, with mixed feelings of sadness and anger. He can't say he loves her, not with absolute certainty in his voice. She'll read right trough him. He can't say he doesn't love her, because she'll freak out. So he just kept staring at her.
„Give him a break Rebekah, his girlfriend just died“ – Klaus interfered.
„Ah yes, saint Elena“ – Rebekah pulls her hands from Stefan's and sits on the sofa. „My brother told me about her. I would never say you're the one who would fall in love with a human. It sounds rather silly, since you're a vampire. It's pointless to be with someone when آپ know آپ don't have a future together. Well, I guess she has no future now..“
„Yes, Klaus took care of that“ – Stefan replied while trying to sit on the sofa اگلے to her. But he didn't say it like he was hurt, یا betrayed. He just کہا it, like he doesn't feel anything. He even added a little smirk after that sentence.
„Yes, what had to be done was done. Now, we have to find the necklace.“
„You really think you'll be able to find it after all these years?“ – Stefan asked curiously. He knew exactly where the ہار was. And he planned to keep it there.
Klaus whipped him with a look. Stefan smiled, and Rebekah smiled after him. Klaus was not happy with the situation, not happy at all.
„I'm feeling hungry, would آپ two شامل میں me for a meal?“ – Stefan finally stood up and kept walking to the door.
„I am“ – Rebekah replied enthusiastically. She jumped from the sofa, and in the سیکنڈ she was اگلے to Stefan, holding his hand. He felt uncomfortable. Somehow, her hand did not fit in his. But she kept smiling. She did have a beautiful smile. Not as beautiful as Elena's, though. When Elena smiled, everyone in the room smiled with her. یا at least Stefan thought so.
„Alright, but let's make it quick, I have a lot of work to do“ – Klaus responded after looking at them for a minute.

Dear diary,
Caroline made us watch The Notebook. Again. She enjoyed it, like she always does. One منٹ she was smiling, the other she was whipping, then she was crying like it's the end of the world. Everything was fine with her and Tyler. مزید than fine, and she liked to remind everyone of that. I am happy for her, I truly am. She deserves to be happy after everything she has been trough. Jeremy doesn't seem so distant anymore, but Bonnie seems worried. The other دن they had a talk, and I heard her crying in his room. When I asked her what was that all about, she didn't want to say. But she doesn't like talking about her and Jeremy, یا Jeremy at all in this past couple of days. I wish I can know what's going on. I haven't seen Matt for a while. Poor Matt, he doesn't know how to handle with all of this. And who could blame him. Sometimes, even I snap. Rick seems to be better now when school started again. He has something to do with his time. Him and Damon didn't get any new leads on Stefan for a long time. Sometimes I feel Damon lost hope, if he ever had any. But Damon is just being Damon. One منٹ he's there for me, and the other he seems to be miles away. I guess I'm the same. Distant. Caroline seems to think so. She keeps saying I should اقدام on with my life. I am, moving. That's all that I've been doing. Moving on, living, trying to forget everything that has happened. But it's hard to اقدام your body once آپ left your دل in some other place. I won't be able to completely اقدام on until Stefan comes home, and God knows when will that be. Sometimes I feel that everything is lost, that he's gone forever and that I'll never see him again. We don't know where he is at the point. But I can feel him out there. And that feeling lights up hope in me. I keep reading his letter, everyday before بستر time. I keep thinking about his words, and in a second, all the sadness I feel, becomes anger. How does he dare to tell me to اقدام on? He does he dare to tell me to stop looking for him? He never gave up on me, why does he think I'm going to give up on him? Stefan knows better than anyone that when I put my mind into something, I don't give up just like that. Bottom line is that I miss him. Sometimes I wake up, and I want to be kissed سے طرف کی him یا held سے طرف کی him. I want to get that unexplainable feeling I got every time he took me in his arms. I miss that feeling, like everything is right with the world. Like there's no one other than us. But Damon is not making this easier for me. He's constantly around me, at least physically. And when he looks at me, my brain shuts down. I still haven't decided if that's a good یا a bad thing, but sometimes it makes me feel uncomfortable. Caroline told me she knows I'm attracted to Damon. At that moment I asked myself, am I? I probably am. Who wouldn't be? But Damon.. is not Stefan. No one is Stefan. There's only one Stefan, and he's gone. And I want him back. I need him back.
Elena was laying on Stefan's bed. She kept looking at the last sentence she wrote. She needs Stefan back. Without Stefan, she doesn't feel like Elena anymore. It's like she's back in the beginning. Every trace of joy and happiness Stefan brought to her when he came to her life, he took with himself when he left. All she had were memories. And sometimes they had hurt her so much, that she wanted to ask Damon to take them away. But the اگلے moment, she wanted to slap herself for even thinking about it. How could she ever want someone to take Stefan away from her?
„Elena!“ – she heard Bonnie's voice from downstairs, and then she heard footsteps on the stairs. She was surprised to hear Bonnie, since she rarely entered the house. And now she was coming to Stefan's room.
Elena got up from the bed, but before she managed to come closer to the door, Bonnie appeared with big brown book in her hands. She looked tired, like she needs a break. She was trying to catch her breath. Jeremy was right behind her, trying to catch Bonnie from behind, but as soon as he grabbed her arm, she pulled back. Elena looked at his brother who tried to avoid any eye contact, but she could feel he's sad. She took the book out of Bonnie's hands and told her to go an sit on the bed. Bonnie felt uncomfortable, sitting on Stefan's bed, but she was so tired from running that she had no other choice. She glanced over Stefan's room. It reminded her of.. Stefan. Everything in his room was screaming his name. Then she noticed the picture of him and Elena on the dresser. She smiled. Memories are important, she remembered he once کہا to Elena. In that moment she noticed Damon on the door. He was standing there with a serious look on his face, dressed like he was usually dressed. Bonnie didn't know did he had any other clothes, except black pants, black shirts.. and black leather jacket. His hair was unusually greasy, though. Damon caught her staring at him, so she moved her look over to Elena who was opening her book.
„What's this all about?“ – Damon asked curiously, while trying to see what's Elena doing, over her shoulder.
„I don't know“ – Elena replied. „Bonnie?“
Bonnie was still trying to catch her breath. She looked at Jeremy who was now looking at Stefan's book collection. Then she looked at Elena, who had a curious look on her face.
„I was reading it. Me and Jeremy were trying to find the solution to his problem..“
„Problem?“ – Elena interrupted her.
„I'll tell آپ later, let Bonnie finish, this is important“ – Jeremy told her. Elena looked at him with a lot of affection, then turned around and gave Bonnie an eye signal to continue.
„I think I found the way to kill Klaus“ – she said.
There was a silence in the room. No one knew what to say, but everyone wondered how. Damon and Elena kept looking at each other, then looked at Bonnie, and finally at Jeremy, who was smiling سے طرف کی the book shelf.
„That's impossible“ – Damon ignored her. „Klaus is invincible.“
Elena rolled her eyes. She didn't understand Damon. Whenever someone had a theory on how to defeat Klaus and bring Stefan home, Damon tried to find a flaw in it. Elena guessed he didn't like to get his hopes up, because if the plan really doesn't work, he would be left disappointed. But Elena wasn't like that. She had hope, for every single little thing they came across, she had hope. And she didn't understand why Damon couldn't be that way too.
„No one is invincible Damon“ – Bonnie replied. „From what I've read, everyone and everything has its week spot. So that got me thinking, and I did a little research. And I think I found Klaus' week spot. Something like Achilles heel“ – she got up, took the book from Elena's hands and started searching. „Klaus had to sacrifice a vampire, a werewolf and a doppelganger to break the curse. And so he did.. but witches always like to leave one part out. The key to making مزید hybrids like himself, is the blood of the doppelganger. Stefan کہا you're the reason he can't make مزید hybrids, and I believe he'll do everything to keep Klaus from finding out that you're alive. Because he needs your blood.. and I'm not sure does Klaus know that یا not. But like I said, witches like to leave the important parts out.. here. Here it says that hybrids are weakest when it's the full moon. I don't know why, but I guess it's because they have both vampire and werewolf in them, both of which are night creatures and both parts try to get out. So the بھیڑیا part is weakening the vampire part.. and the other way around. And all آپ have to do is.. take away his heart.“
„It's really simple as that?“ – Elena asked.
„It's never simple as that“ – Damon replied, standing so close to Elena that she could feel his warm breath on her ear. At first, she felt a slight uncomfort, but then she relaxed because she was used to Damon doing that kind of stuff.
„He's right, it's not simple. The time of the full moon maybe is the weakest point for Klaus, but he is still strong. He still has fast reflexes, and everything else that comes with being a hybrid. This is just the only time when it's possible to kill him. The only advantage we may have is the element of surprise.. since I found this in my family's grimoire, I don't know does Klaus know this fact“ – Bonnie tried to explain.
„But what kind of use is this for us? We still don't know where he is. He could be in Japan all that we know“ – Damon replied.
„Then we're going to look for him in Japan. And if we don't find him there, we're going to look for him on the moon if we think he's there. I'm going to look for him in the every corner of the Earth if I have to, but I will find him“ – Elena کہا while looking at Damon with her serious face on.
„Why? What if Stefan doesn't want to be found? Do آپ have any idea how hard is it going to be for him? Thing's are never going to be the same Elena, not for him, and not for you. Stefan آپ once knew is gone. Even if he comes back physically, he won't really come back.. not for years. And for him, years are nothing. But for you, years are everything. Your whole life will pass آپ سے طرف کی while you're waiting for him, and that's one thing Stefan never wanted for you“ – Damon was practically screaming at her, while holding her face with his hands.
„I can help him. I did it before“ – she کہا with tears in her eyes.
„This is not like before“ – Damon pulled his hands back. „What آپ saw before, that was nothing.“
„God Damon, why are آپ so afraid to help him? I know آپ don't hate him, I know آپ want him back as much as I do. But what does keep آپ from moving? Are آپ so scared to fail? We have to try Damon, we have to. Because that person out there, that's not Stefan. That is someone who's eating up Stefan alive, and every single دن we wait to اقدام and find him, is one دن closer until he completely disappears. We have to try and help him Damon because we love him, and because everything he did.. he did for us.“
„Are آپ saying this is my fault? I never asked him to do what he did“ – Damon screamed.
„No Damon, آپ didn't. Be he still did it. Because he loves you. He loves آپ enough to leave everything he loved.. including me. It's not your fault Damon, but after everything, آپ owe him that. آپ can at least try to help him. I'm not asking آپ to succeed, I'm just asking آپ to try.“
Damon didn't know what to say. Emotions were piling up in him. Anger, fury, sadness.. but he knew Elena is right. He knew that at least he has to try to help Stefan. Because his brother did the same for him. He looked at Elena with affection, same kind of affection Elena looked at Jeremy with earlier, and both Elena and Bonnie had noticed that affection in Damon's eyes. Bonnie wasn't sure was that affection there because of Elena یا because of Stefan, but Elena was glad to see it, because she had a feeling she finally got trough him.
„Fine, Elena. We will do it your way“ – Damon finally agreed. Elena generously nodded to him.
„Where do we start?“ – Elena asked Bonnie.
„Well, first we need to find Stefan. We can do that with a locators spell. I just need Damon's blood, because he's related to Stefan.. and that will دکھائیں us where Stefan is.. Oh and a map.“
„Bonnie, that means we could have found Stefan days ago.. why didn't آپ say anything?“
„Elena.. honestly, would that help? What would آپ do if آپ knew where he was? آپ couldn't do anything.. now, we have something.“
Elena knew Bonnie was right. She would probably go to find Stefan without even thinking, and she would get herself in some mess others would have to clean up after. But still, it would be nice if she knew where Stefan was.
„Let's do it“ – Damon کہا while grabbing the letter opener from Stefan's desk. „Jeremy, there's a map in the library, go and get it“ – Damon practically ordered him, but without hesitation, Jeremy went downstairs.
Few منٹ later he came back with a map. He gave it to Bonnie, and she spreaded it over Stefan's desk. Damon had cut his hand with a letter opener and his blood dripped over the map. Then Bonnie shut her eyes, and concentrated. Blood moved.
„Here he is.“
„Chicago?“ – Elena was surprised.
„Yes“ – Bonnie replied.
„Fine. Now we only need a plan. And then we can go“ – Damon said.
„Just like that?“ – Elena asked curiously.
„Just like that“ – Damon replied. „But we're not going anywhere without a plan.“
„Fine سے طرف کی me.“
* * *
Stefan was standing in front of the window, thinking about one thing he knew he should forget about. Elena. But he couldn't. He could never forget her. Memories are all he has now. And sometimes he though he can live with that. Because no matter how many life's he lives, time he spent with Elena will always be the best time of all of his lifetimes. But there were times when he wanted to hug her یا kiss her.. یا just look at her. And those times made him go crazy.
Rebekah was getting annoying, probably because she kept acting like a brat. She was constantly telling him how bored she is.. and she was constantly talking. Most of the times, Stefan didn't know what the hell she was talking about. But Klaus was out, and he told Stefan to keep an eye on his sister. But Rebekah constantly wanted to be in the center of attention, but Stefan wasn't remotely interested in her. He finally calmed her down سے طرف کی buying her some magazine. She was silent for مزید than 5 منٹ now, and Stefan thought that was a blessing.
The front door opened. No, someone pushed them. Hard. It was Klaus. He did not look happy. Both Stefan and Rebekah looked at him.
„Interesting thing just happened“ – Klaus said. „I was with my witch. She found Rebekah's necklace“ – he kept looking at Stefan.
Stefan knew what that meant. He knew Klaus knows Elena is alive. And he knew Klaus will try to kill her now. But he was looking at him, as calm as possible, while Klaus was stabbing his with his icy look.
„Congratulations Stefan, you're going home.“
„Stefan, don't آپ love me anymore?“ – she asked, concerned. Stefan did not know what to say. He loved her, once. یا he thought he did. From the moment he met Elena, from the moment he fell in love with Elena, he was sure he never loved anything as much as he loves her. یا in a way that he loves her. He was looking at Rebekah's eyes, with mixed feelings of sadness and anger. He can't say he loves her, not with absolute certainty in his voice. She'll read right trough him.

It sounds rather silly, since you're a vampire. It's pointless to be with someone when آپ know آپ don't have a future together. Well, I guess she has no future now..“
„Yes, Klaus took care of that“ – Stefan replied while trying to sit on the sofa اگلے to her. But he didn't say it like he was hurt, یا betrayed. He just کہا it, like he doesn't feel anything. He even added a little smirk after that sentence.
„Yes, what had to be done was done. Now, we have to find the necklace.“
„You really think you'll be able to find it after all these years?“ – Stefan asked curiously. He knew exactly where the ہار was. And he planned to keep it there.

And sometimes he though he can live with that. Because no matter how many life's he lives, time he spent with Elena will always be the best time of all of his lifetimes. But there were times when he wanted to hug her یا kiss her.. یا just look at her. And those times made him go crazy.
Rebekah was getting annoying, probably because she kept acting like a brat. She was constantly telling him how bored she is.. and she was constantly talking. Most of the times, Stefan didn't know what the hell she was talking about. But Klaus was out, and he told Stefan to keep an eye on his sister. But Rebekah constantly wanted to be in the center of attention, but Stefan wasn't remotely interested in her. He finally calmed her down سے طرف کی buying her some magazine. She was silent for مزید than 5 منٹ now, and Stefan thought that was a blessing.
The front door opened. No, someone pushed them. Hard. It was Klaus. He did not look happy. Both Stefan and Rebekah looked at him.
„Interesting thing just happened“ – Klaus said. „I was with my witch. She found Rebekah's necklace“ – he kept looking at Stefan.
Stefan knew what that meant. He knew Klaus knows Elena is alive. And he knew Klaus will try to kill her now. But he was looking at him, as calm as possible, while Klaus was stabbing his with his icy look.
„Congratulations Stefan, you're going home.“
