Damon took another drink, trying to sort through all the memories. His time in the cell at Whitmore, in the questionable care of the Augustines had been a secret. It was one he was ashamed of, and one that had affected him more profoundly than anything else in his years. Most of it was extremely negative, with a single bright spot, and since Enzo's return, Damon had been all over this ground time and again. Just trying to process it brought back the guilt, but at the same time, he hadn't felt so much relief in the last 60 years. It also wasn't that simple, and it was something that he wanted to deal with.
Stefan was another matter. There were reasons that Damon was distant, especially since his time in the cell. Of course, Damon had told him that it was because he wanted time away, to go see the world. He had lied. There was a part of him that just didn't connect. It was stuck on off, not just with his brother, but everyone. It permeated everything he did. Now it was time to come clean, and to tell him the story. It was his time to explain, and maybe it wouldn't break him.
He poured himself another drink, but found himself staring at the liquid. He had often looked for answers in the bottle, or allowed the bottle to wash it all away. He could pretend he didn't feel a thing for so long. It was a constant routine, and one that was nearly a science. However, it was never true. He felt everything. He swirled the liquid around in the glass. If he were human, he would need rehab. A vampire's constitution really was a medical marvel. He heard the knock on the door, and assumed Stefan would find his way here. Damon simply leaned back with his feet on the table and waited.
