Caroline was hanging in the Grill when her phone rang. She let out a deep sigh when she noticed it was her ex-boyfriend Matt. “Hey, Matt” she said. “Caroline, hi, I’m glad I can finally reach you” Matt replied. “What do you mean?” Caroline asked avoiding. It had been two days since she last spoke to him and she had very consciously ‘missed’ his calls. “Is something wrong? Are you avoiding me? Because if you do I would understand. I mean, I did break up with you” Matt softly said. “I’m not avoiding you, okay? I’m just hooked into something, I can’t explain it” Caroline said hesitating. “Can’t you try? During lunch, maybe? I’d like to talk to you…about us.” Matt suggested. “There’s no us, Matt. Like you said, you broke up…But girls have to eat, so maybe lunch might be not so bad. Can I call you back on that?” Caroline asked. “Promise you will” Matt said. “Okay, I promise” Caroline said and she ended the conversation.
“Boyfriend issues, huh?” the girl next to her at the bar said. Caroline turned around to view the clearly underage girl drinking beer. And it wasn’t the first one. “You know it’s rude to eavesdrop a conversation you’re not part of” The girl drank from her beer. “I wasn’t eavesdropping. You really need to lower your voice a bit” “You shouldn’t be drinking. You’re a minor” Caroline said cold. The girl laughed. “Okay, yeah, I’m a minor, but that doesn’t make you my legal guardian, you know. And don’t take your problems with Matt out on me” Caroline’s mouth dropped open from unbelief. “I’m not taking anything out on anyone. God, why am I even talking to you?” she muttered, more to herself than the girl. She walked away, the girl watching her leave.

They heard the door close and wondered who came barging in, until a familiar, female and British voice solved the mystery.
“Anyone home?” Rebekah called from downstairs.
“Ugh” Damon sighed. “I’ll go” He stood up and walked to the door, but when he wanted to open it, the door was slammed in his face and Rebekah barged in. She held a guy in her right hand and a blood bag in her left hand.
“What are you doing here?” Elena asked tired.
“I came to apologize” Rebekah explained flighty, while she tossed the bag to Damon. “I was wrong to bite you. It’s just that I busted Stefan smooching with that vamp strumpet and you look like her, so I got carried away. I don’t understand what it is that draws Stefan to women with your appearances. You’re not even that pretty”
“I appreciate your honesty” Elena commented sarcastically.
“Hey, I’m as open as your legs were last night” Rebekah replied blunt and Elena’s cheeks turned red.

“Bonnie?” Damon shouted. “Bonnie, where are you? Get back here!” But when nothing happened he understood he had to do this himself. He looked up at the chains and started pulling with all his strength. It hurt immensely, but he couldn’t stop. If this pain was necessary to be with Elena, he would go through it.
After a few minutes, that felt like hours, his right hand was liberated. Without hesitating he pulled his left arm and this time it took less time to free himself.
Then everything went black.
Damon opened his eyes and found himself outside on the spot where Bonnies house used to be. He looked at his arms. They had healed. He scribbled up and looked around. He felt different, like he’d been born again. Elena. He had to see Elena. And so he started walking in the direction of the Boarding House. He could sense she was there.
