Elena POV

Summer's Fading

I woke up to the sun gently shining on my face and the shallow breaths of Damon breathing right next to me. I gazed up at him, my beautiful boyfriend, the one I loved. His eyes flickered open and he smiled down at me.

'Good morning beautiful' he said softly and I giggled. He was so cute when he did that, I looked forward to it every morning. I know right? being love struck had unhinged me.

Every day this summer he's woke me up telling me I'm beautiful, which is wonderful to hear.

I was at the Lake House with Damon, spending some time alone together over the summer. Bonnie was with her mom, Caroline was stressing over college plans with Tyler and my beautiful baby brother was back to life. Bonnie brought him back to life, and I couldn't believe it. I cried for hours when he told me and clung to him for what seemed like forever. I couldn't believe he was back for good, I would not allow him to get himself hurt again, I loved him too much. He was at the boarding house but me and Damon would be home tomorrow to make sure he was okay.

Matt and Rebekah had gone travelling and I couldn't believe it when he told me. Matt deserves so much better but if he's happy then I guess I am aswell.

'You look like you're thinking too hard' Damon said interrupting my thoughts. He stroked my face lightly and tilted my head up and leaned in to kiss me. I could kiss Damon for hours; his mouth was gentle on mine, moving in sync with my lips softly. He gently moved his hand to rub the small of my back and I turned slightly and draped my leg around his waist. He deepened the kiss and ran his hands through my hair pulling me closer to him and I moaned quietly.

'I love you, you know that right?' he murmured into my mouth.

'I know' I whispered.

He gently lifted my top up off over my head and tossed it aside, his hands on my bare skin drove me crazy. He rolled over so he was over me and he started to place kisses on my jawline, my neck, in between my breasts, all the way down to my navel and back up again to kiss me. I savoured his mouth on my skin.

We kissed until we were both gasping for her and he leaned his head into my neck whilst I rubbed his back.

'Do it' I pleaded and he chuckled softly before biting down hard into my neck. My body shuddered in ecstasy as I leaned forward to his neck and bit down hard aswell.

Blood Sharing. The ultimate bonus to making love for vampires.

I felt Damon's hands gently lean down to remove my underwear and then his hands made there way in between my legs to the place I wanted them most.

'You're so beautiful' he whispered as he stroked and rubbed me tenderly. I arched my back and nothing but a whimper escaped my lips as I pulled his mouth back down to mine.

Whilst Damon was inside of me, murmuring my name, telling me how much he loved me I felt like I was in paradise but there was a part of my brain that was screaming. Why was I thinking about Stefan? I shouldn't be thinking about Stefan whilst I'm making love with Damon but I am, and it's not the first time either.

I remembered how Stefan's hands felt on my skin, how his kisses felt, how he felt. And I couldn't help but feel a pang of guiltiness wash over me.

Where was Stefan? We hadn't seen him for ages, he disappeared that night he went to throw Silas' body in the water and we haven't seen him since. Not a call or a text or anything. I knew he was hurting and he needed to be away from me but I couldn't help but worry about him.

I remembered all of those times I told him I loved him, how it would always be him. Was a liar? Or had things changed? I knew one thing for sure; I hadn't lied when I said I loved him. I had been in love with Stefan, I truly had.

No more Stefan I screamed in my head and I concentrated on being with Damon.
