Elena was lying on the couch, much to Damon’s discontent, while Meredith did some basic tests.
“How long have you been feeling like this?” she asked while she checked Elena’s eyes.
“Started this morning, when I woke up” Elena answered softly.
“And you’re having pain?” Meredith continued, checking Elena’s ears. “Where exactly?”
“My shoulders. My knees. My ankles. My hips” Elena summed up frowning, pausing after every joint she mentioned.
“Open your mouth” Meredith ordered and Elena obeyed. “Looks just fine” she mumbled and Elena closed her mouth again. “I’m going to take a little blood and have it tested”
“Is that necessary?” Elena asked a little reluctant.
“Since when are you afraid of needles?” Damon frowned and Elena shot him an annoyed glance. “I’m not scared. Go ahead. Do it”
Meredith prepared the syringe. “Let’s not forget, you still have cancer”
Elena shook her head. “No, no, that’s not it. I’m sure of it. I’ve been drinking tea every single day. My cancer is gone”
“Tea? What kind of tea?” Meredith asked a little stunned as she injected the syringe in Elena’s vain.
“I don’t know. Caroline’s supplying me, but it’s been really helpful and the pain only started today, which is why I think it has everything to do with last night’s training and nothing with the cancer”
Meredith shook her head disbelieving. “Well, we’ll see once the results are available, but I hope for your sake that you’re right”

The next morning.
A buzzing sound, coming from Caroline’s pedestal cupboard woke her up and she opened her eyes. She took her phone and opened it. She had received a message from an unknown person.
“I know what you are and we will destroy you” she read aloud. She swung her legs off the bed and searched for her ring. When she had found it she put it on and walked to the window. She shoved the curtain and stared outside.
The sky was grey. It seemed like it was going to rain.
Caroline opened the window and climbed over the edge.
“Game on, bitch” she mumbled, before she jumped and landed gracefully on the pavers.

“Where’s Barbie?” Katherine asked when Stefan was standing on the front porch of the Boarding House. She had gotten used to the sight of him with Rebekah.
“She’s out, doing something” Stefan explained vague. “Can I come in?”
Katherine shrugged and let him pass. Stefan turned around. “I’m looking for Elena. Is she here?”
“No, she’s at school. You should know that” Katherine said uninterested.
“Not anymore she isn’t” Stefan said. “School’s over”
“Then she’s probably at the Grill” Katherine said, a little annoyed. “What do you need her for anyway?”
“I want to apologize for what happened last time she came over” Stefan said. “And I want to make sure she’s okay. I mean, I know Rebekah’s blood already left her system by now, but still, it must have freaked her out”
He looked at Katherine who stared at some point behind Stefan. Stefan quickly turned around and saw Damon standing in the doorway.
