    Summary

    When Elena wakes up in transition, she can't stand the way the Salvatores look at her -or how they argue about what's best for her as if she's not sitting right there. She's already made her choice, but she knows for it to work -for her to truly survive this- she has to leave Mystic Falls. So she calls the only person she trusts to get her through it.

    Summary

    Set after the events of season three's 'Our Town.' The night of the incident with Stefan and Elena on Wickery Bridge, the last thing Klaus expects to find is Elena Gilbert breaking into his house and drinking his cherry wine. Klena.

    Or...

    She set down her glass, crystal clinking, boot steps butchering the quiet as she left the kitchen and marched across the parque flooring before landing at the front door. "If anyone tries to come through there and hurt me, you'd stop them, right?" she almost begged, hand flung out helplessly. "You wouldn't even let them through the door?"

    "No." Instant. Involuntary. Painfully accurate. Vulnerable.

    "That is what I need tonight," Elena insisted, hand falling back to her side, the tide of her breathing returning to normal. "I need to feel safe, and not have to worry about anything. I need to feel like myself, and I can only do that with someone who doesn't expect anything from me, who didn't expect me to show up in the first place. I need the scariest thing in town, with the best bottles of wine and the most intriguing stories and the most broken spirit I've ever seen besides my own. I need to not be alone."

    "Then you won't be."
