[ Stefan. For a little while, she'd forgotten him, her thoughts so wrapped up in this new existence and the help Damon could offer her in getting through all of this in one piece. She hasn't thought to miss Stefan and the guilt of that realization rises up like a wave that threatens to pull her under and sweep her into the current. But she holds on to the surface and stays above it, riding it out until things settle again.
Stefan. She loves Stefan. She chose Stefan. She needs to remember that, in case... In case she ever sees him again.
Pulling in a shaky breath, she nods slightly, hesitates, and finally asks a quiet question. ]
Can I stay here?
[ Because even though he's not the brother she's in love with, Damon is still her friend. She trusts him with her life and well-being and she needs him right now, even if that's not fair to him. ]
