{17}The first time you see him cry

Damon;

You woke up in Damon's bed. You were hot but cold at the same time. You felt so sick. You tried to get up but your head pounded even more. You opened your eyes and you couldn't see anyone in sight. You tried getting up a second time and this time, you sat up in bed. You tried to stand but your knees gave out and your hand hit and knocked over a lamp on the floor as you fell onto the floor. Before you could actually hit the floor, you felt hands grab you and catch you.

"Nope. You aren't leaving this bed. Not until Klaus gets here." You looked up to see Damon's face. Well a blurry version of it.

"Damon?" You asked.

"Yeah... I'm here baby... I'm not going anywhere." He laid you on the bed and you groaned.

"Wh-what happened?" You breathed heavily.

"You were bit by a werewolf... But Klaus is coming. He agreed to give you his blood." He had the look of worry in his eyes.

"I'll be fine Damon..." You whispered. He held you close to his body.

"I am not going to lose you..." He whispered in your ear. He kissed your head and that's when you felt it. You felt wetness in your hair. You looked up to see him crying. You've never seen him cry before. You lifted up a shaky, pale arm and wiped his tears away.

"Don't cry, Damon. I'll be fine... I promise. If this is goodbye, I love you. I love you so much. Don't forget that." You whispered tiredly. You close your eyes and you could hear him start to cry.

"I'm not going to lose you... This is not goodbye." Let's just say, Klaus came just in time and you were just fine like you had promised.

Klaus;

"What do you mean by that?!" You followed your stubborn boyfriend in his house. You two were arguing about how he was scared of nothing. "You have to be scared of something!"

"Nothing, love. I meant what I said. I'm not afraid of anything." He knew he was lying but he didn't want you to to know that. He didn't want to seem powerless in front of you.

"Klaus, we both know you're lying." He turned to you and stared into your eyes.

"Care to elaborate? If you think I'm lying, then go ahead and tell me. What am I afraid of?" He smirked.

"You're scared of trusting." He smirk immediately went away. He said nothing so you continued. "You have been hurt your whole life so you're scared of trusting anyone. You shut it out and hide your feelings away so you don't get hurt. I get that. I do. You had a horrible childhood. You were the only child that your dad abused. All I can imagine is you as a child and your step dad beating you because you weren't his child. You're scared to love. You weren't loved by anyone growing up. You're scared of abandonment. You push your family away but haven't you realized they keep coming back? You're scared of betrayal. That's why you create hybrids to do whatever you want. That's why you kill on impulse. Your impulse is to kill. You're scared of those things and you know it. You just don't want to face your inner demons." You looked up and for the first time in your life, you saw him crying. You immediately walked to him and wiped them away. "Oh no... Please don't cry... I hate seeing you cry." He said nothing as you just held him in your arms. "You will always be loved. Every second, just know that you will always be loved... By me." You looked up and wiped the tears from his eyes.

Stefan;

Once again, you were talking to Stefan about his Ripper stage. He wanted to shut it off so bad but there was no way in hell that you were going to let him.
