Elena wouldn't expect Damon to chase her and she certainly wasn't looking for him to. She just needed air, a moment to think, but she stopped at the entrance to the kitchen before glancing back as she watched Damon move to Ric to slide his arms around him.

It was an odd sight to her because she hadn't expected it. Hadn't known that either one of them had swung that way which was probably why she brought up Jenna more than anything.

Closing her eyes, she opened her mouth and then shut it. Finally, she sighed. "I won't tell anyone." She couldn't quite look at them. "And all I want is you to be happy..."

"But I'm going to go stay with Caroline tonight." She left them alone then, disappearing upstairs.
