So this takes place in season 3 when Stefan is with Klaus and has his humanity off. This is a Delena story, and I'm not sure how many chapters it will have yet. Also, I'm a first time author, so bear with me!

It was late at night and Elena was sitting in her room when she heard a knock on her door. When he spoke there was no doubt who he was.

"Elena, can I come in please?" Damon asked her through the wall. When he didn't hear a response he continued, "no one has seen you in days, we just want to know your okay."

"I'm fine, Damon, just go away."

"Come on, Elena. There has to be something I can do to make you open this door." Damon paused before saying, "please, Elena, I miss you."

Damon heard Elena get up and walk over to the door, before slowly opening it. She peeked through the door to look at him, and he gave her a small smile, before she opened the door completely to let him in.

Damon sat down on Elena's bed and started talking. "So, what's going to get you up and out of this room today?"

"I'm just processing, Damon." Elena said. "We've gotten no further to finding Stefan than we were months ago. I'm just trying to do the thing I've been...so afraid of doing."

"You have to let him go." Damon whispered

Elena's eyes started to water. "I know I do, it's...it's just so hard." She sat down on the bed next to Damon and leaned her head on his shoulder. "Can you help me?" She asked him, locking their eyes together.

"Sure, sure I can," Damon said softly. "What do you want me to do?"

"Just get me out." Elena pleaded. "Out of Mystic Falls, away from everything that reminds me of him."

"Yeah," Daman said, "yeah we will. We'll leave this place. Go somewhere far away. But right now, your going to go to sleep, and," Damon wiped away the tears that had begun to stream down her face, "your going to stop crying."

"Okay." Elena grabbed Damon's arm as he started to get up, "But can you stay with me? Just for a little while?"

"Sure I can," Damon replied, lying Elena down on the bed, and then proceeding to lie down next to her.

Elena moved in closer to Damon, and he put his arm around her, surprised at her willingness to be this close to him. He stroked her hair, and whispered in her ear, "By tomorrow afternoon we'll be far from this town." She opened her eyes and looked at him. He looked back at her and said, "I promise."

So, I know this chapter is really short and I'm SO sorry about that, but it's just the introduction and the next chapters will be a lot longer. I can have the next chapter up by tomorrow if I get some reviews, and I'm thinking Damon and Elena can go to Miami or somewhere in California. Review which you would like, and I'm also seeing some Delena lemon in the future ;).Thanks for reading!
