❰ that's all it takes for damon to drop whatever he's doing and makes his way to elena, ignoring all the natives and hosts he passes alike. when he finds her, he doesn't say anything at first, just walks over and wraps her up in a tight hug. her safety is his priority, even over her emotional well-being — he can't take care of her emotional well-being if she's dead, after all — but that is number two on the list. ❱

You need to get out of here, baby, ❰ he murmurs, rubbing his hand over her back in little circles. ❱ It's fucking you up as bad as Mystic Falls ever did.

[ Is it? Is she so lost in all of this that she can't tell the difference anymore, being so unable to remember what it was like to feel happy and at peace with herself and her life? Has it really been so long since those days?

Her hands clutch at Damon's costume for a moment before moving again. They're safe here in the cramped quarters on the ship they're sharing with the rest of the hosts, so Elena is without her own costume and she wastes no time in tugging away Damon's hood and the scarves covering that Adonic face. ]

❰ it's been long enough — more than long enough, as far as damon's concerned. they have a chance for her to catch a break, and he wants so badly for her to take it. she deserves to, more than anyone else in the nest. life on the station is boring, but at least it's not this.

he lets her pulls off the hood and scarves without resisting, but once she's taken them off all he does is take her hands and draw them up to his lips to kiss her palms. ❱

Trust me, Elena. Let me take you home.

❰ home being the station, home being anywhere not fucking here. ❱

[ She melts at the feeling of his lips on her skin, wrapping her hands around his fingers when he's done. Everything about her is uncertain, her decision balanced on the edge of the knife and she's just waiting to fall. ]

It's okay to leave?

[ She knows he's said it is, Sam has said it, and so many others. But she needs to hear it again, just those four simple words, she's practically begging him in that small, breaking voice to assure her just one more time. Please. ]
