He would stay by her side for eternity if she asked. Hell, he would put a stake through his own heart if she asked. "Elena." He whispered as their lips parted. Their faces mere inches apart, but all he could think about was the sweetness of her breath. Loving how it seemed to linger in the air, a gift just for him. When he decided to open his eyes, he smiled at hers still being closed.
"Elen.." He wasn't giving the chance to finish as she wrapped her arm around his neck and pulled his lips back to hers. His arm wrapped around her waist, pulling her tightly against him. How long had he waited for this moment. This moment when nothing else in the world mattered except the two people wrapped in each other. The warmth of her body was overwhelming and he knew that everything was worth this moment. They were completely lost in one another.
"Ahem." Their bodies shot apart at the intrusion of someone else. "Well, this is new." Ric said.
Damon noticed Elena's face turning red, a small smile broke on his face. "Nice timing." Damon smirked at Ric.
For a moment everything was silent. Elena looked at Ric then at Damon. "U mm..right." Then she turned and quickly went in the house. Damn, Damon thought to himself.
Ric laughed as he walked up the stairs to the porch. "Strange." He said patting Damon on the back, then disappeared in the house as well.
Damon lingered on the porch for a moment, hoping Elena would give him some sign that she wanted him to stay. But after a moment he decided to head out. "What a night." He thought aloud as he climbed into his car.
The drive to the boarding house seemed to be taken longer than anticipated and he was starting to get lost in his thoughts. Elena had kissed him back. She had pulled him back when he had stepped away. Perfect, he thought remembering the taste of her lips. This was how it was meant to be, he thought smiling.
"Oh shit!" Damon yelled as he slammed on brakes. The car slide from one side of the road to the other at the unexpected change of events. Get a grip Damon, he thought reacting as fast as possible. He was losing control of the car. You got to get out of the car. As he reached for the handle, he felt the back end of the car spin around and the car began to flip. Damon's head slammed into the driver's side window and the forward into the steering wheel. The sound of crushing metal and glass filled his ears. A sudden sharp pain shot through his chest,pinning him against his seat. He closed his eyes trying to get a grasp on how far the car was traveling.
The car was no longer flipping it was sliding down a hill that alined the road. Just when it seemed over, the car flipped once more coming to a hard stop against a large tree. "Ah." Damon breathed just happy to have the car still. The calm was short lived as the pain in his chest became very intense. He turned to see what was causing the pain but couldn't move his head. Slowly in raised his hands to his chest and could feel the broken steering wheel. "Of course." He said out loud, letting his hands drop to his side.
What the hell is going on, was the first thought. There was someone in the road, someone he recognized. Damon could feel his breath slowing. The steering wheel must have been lounged in his one of his lungs. Feeling something drip down the side of his face, he brought one hand up and wiped it. "Really world." He laughed halfheartedly. He was bleeding and it is deep. The sound of footsteps seemed to come out of nowhere.
They were heavy and headed towards the car. The footsteps came around the back end of the car, but didn't say anything. Well this can't be good, Damon thought. The car shook for a moment, then was turned right side up. "ARGH!" Damon groaned as the steering wheel shifted. Realizing his head was free he looked around at the chaos that surrounded him. He stopped cold when his eyes came upon a familiar figure. "Hello brother."
