Ok, so new story! I have to have a new story to get more inspiration for the others so this will be a shorter one but I think it'll be one of my best! I am not copying anyone who has made something like this before! Promise!
Summary: Damon and Elena are bored one day at the mall and come by a man claiming to own a time machine and take them back to a time that they remember clearly. Damon and Elena get in thinking it's a joke but what happens when it works and they re-experience the worst times of their lives with each other?
Rating: T for language and suggestive content that Damon brings to attention and probable for future chapters. If it gets really bad I will change it to an M.
Characters/Pairings: Damon, Elena, Caroline and Stefan. Damon/Elena Caroline/Stefan.
Disclaimer: I own nothing to do with The CW's smash hit TV show The Vampire Diaries or L.J. Smith's genius creation of Damon and The Vampire Diaries. I want to own Damon but that's just not going to happen! Unless the people at CW think differently! ;)
Thanks for reading my jibber-jabber so please enjoy the first chapter!

Our Past Haunt Us
Chapter One: Time Machine?
It was a slow day at the Mall and Damon and Elena had somehow ended up going with Stefan to the mall to get shirts for his upcoming marriage. Not to Elena but to none other than Caroline Forbes. They had no idea how that happened. One day Stefan and Elena are going out and the next Caroline and Stefan are engaged.
Elena took a little while to get over Stefan but it finally happened and now here she was. Helping Stefan find the perfect tux for his wedding. Damon was also dragged along because apparently Stefan needed a guy's opinion also. So here Damon and Elena are sitting on a dressing room couch waiting for Stefan to get out of the change room.
Damon's half asleep and Elena's feet are over the edge and her head is near Damon's thigh. Her legs are dangling and losing blood circulation a little but she honestly doesn't care. Time goes by until Damon speaks up "We should do something more exciting." Damon says.
"Like what?" Elena asks as she looks up to Damon.
"I think that dressing room is available." Damon smirks towards her.
"No." Elena frowns catching on to his suggestive humor. "No." Damon hears from the changing room. Damon starts laughing and said, "She's not your girlfriend anymore dude. She can screw whoever she wants wherever she wants!"
Elena laughs and Stefan comes out in a black tuxedo. Damon and Elena give thumbs up just to get out of the change room and away from the uncomfortable leather couch. Half the staff had already told them that they made a lovely couple and it made Elena crazy. Damon on the other hand laughed and told her that they should be a couple and just do it in the change room.
"Why don't you guys go get something to eat while I get fitted with more?" Before Stefan could finish the sentence both Damon and Elena were up and stretching. "We'll be back in a while." Damon said as they walked out.
"Thank god we're out of there." Elena said as she walked with Damon towards the food court.
"I think I would've died for the second time if I stayed in there any longer." Damon smirked.
"Funny." Elena said sarcastically as they walked down the halls of the mall. Damon smirked at her and said, "I'm actually hungry. Know anyone who's offering?"
"No." Elena said with a frown. Damon pouted just as they were about to get to the corridor that led them to the food court. They were just a few steps away when some old man with a beard stopped them.
"You lovely couple come with me." He said and Elena frowned. Damon leaned over to her and said, "See everyone thinks we're a couple."
"Don't get your hopes up." She whispered back as the man took them away to a little machine.
"It's great." Damon said as he looked at this actually decent looking car with a bunch of wires everywhere.
"No, you don't understand! It's a time machine! I want you two to test it!" The old man exclaimed.
Damon smirked and said, "We'll get away from Stefan longer." Elena nodded and said, "It's just some goofy old man, with a weird dream. It won't even work."
"Ok, now you get in and follow the instructions on the screen." The old man said as he pushed them into the front seat.
"Ok." Damon smirked at laughed. Elena and Damon sat and waited for about two minutes until something appeared on the front window and two keyboards appeared in front of them. Elena looked over to Damon confused and he said, "Ok, so the old guy knows his way around wires. This is just a hoax and when we get out he's going to ask for money."
"Yeah." She laughed as something blinked on the front window.
Type in the date of your worst experience ever.
Damon and Elena laughed but typed in their worst experience ever.
Damon typed in September 12th – December 19th 1864. Those were the days he was still with Katherine and now as far as he was concerned those were the worst days.
Elena typed in something simple but monumental to her. May 23rd 2009. The day her parents died. That had truly been the worst day of her life. The screen flashed please press enter and both Damon and Elena pressed enter.
Elena and Damon were talking about something when the machine started to go crazy and the date of Elena's parent's death appeared bigger than Damon's date. Elena was confused. She just wanted the machine to have a malfunction so she could get out and do something else.
"Why are we wasting our time on this crap? We know there is no such thing as time travel." Damon asked.
"We're trying to avoid going back to that change room." Elena reminded him, as there was a flash of light and the car started driving quickly and she grabbed on to Damon.
"What the hell?" Damon asked as he took notice of Elena's hand squeezing his arm. Damon placed his hand on top of hers, as the car seemed to stop. Elena felt her heart racing. It was probably something the old man had done for effect. Elena looked over to Damon and retracted her hand and got out of the car gasped.
"What's wrong?" Damon asked as he got out and froze. They were at Wickery Bridge at nighttime. Elena looked at her cell phone and it read May 23rd 2009. Elena's heart skipped a beat as she stood off to the edge of the bridge. Damon looked around and said, "Don't tell me that old man made it work."
Elena nodded and she regretting placing the date she did into the car. She was about to witness her parent's die twice. Elena looked back at the car and it read. Remember this will last until the date you entered is over and everyone can see, hear and feel you.
Damon walked over to Elena and she looked super pale. "You ok?" Elena shook her head and Damon heard a car coming down the bridge. She heard the parents angry and the girl in the back trying to explain what happened.
"Oh my god. You went to the day your parent's died." Damon said as he looked at Elena. She only nodded and Damon went up to her and the car disappeared. Damon was just a little on edge by the car and stuff but apparently Elena was preparing for the worst.
Just then the car spun out of control and hit the side of Wickery Bridge beside them. Elena's breathing got heavy as she heard the screams of herself and parent's.
Elena watched as the car hit the water. Elena felt tears welling up in her eyes and Damon turned to her and put an arm around her and she leaned into him. She was crying and she then watched something she had never experienced. There was a man no older than seventeen jumping into the water behind the car.
A few minutes later he appeared from the water with a young girl and placed her on the ground and dove back in. Elena was still letting silent tears fall down her face and the man came up again empty handed.
The man swam up to shore and took out his cell phone and called someone. He looked at the girl in confusion and when he heard sirens he left instantly. Damon was still intently watching the girl as ambulances came down through the pathway on the woods and used CPR on the girl.
The whole time Elena was crying. Someone dove in too investigate what happened and they came up with two dead bodies and Elena cried harder.
"Please Damon, can we leave. I don't want to see anymore." Elena cried. Damon was shocked at what happened. He just started walking with Elena towards the center of the town to get a hotel room. He had seen the message and they weren't going anywhere until 12:00 am.
Damon ran them to the nearest hotel and checked them in. Elena was still crying as she sat down on the bed and cried. "Why did this have to work?"
Damon sat down next to her and said, "Because the world has to have more secrets that nobody cares to know about except ones who take stupid risks." Damon wasn't exactly an expert at comforting but he wasn't going to let Elena cry for a long time.
"Calm down Elena. Watch some TV and I'm going to go and buy us a change of clothes." Damon said. Elena nodded and turned on the TV as Damon rushed out of the hotel room and to the nearest store.
Elena turned it on to Channel Nine and saw the live broadcast. She quickly turned off the TV and sat back on the bed and threw off her sweater. She was getting to hot from crying. She was left in a lacy camisole as Damon walked in.
Damon's eyes shot open and he smirked at her. "I didn't know we were going there tonight."
Elena laughed. "Only you could make me laugh at a time like this." She said calming down.
"It's what I do." Damon smirked at her as sat down next to her and handed her a pile of clothes. "I guessed the sizes."
"Thanks." Elena said as she walked to the bathroom. Elena saw those mini shampoo and conditioners so she decided to have a shower. She walked out to Damon and said, "You need to change? I'm going to shower."
"We have an hour left so maybe I should take a shower before we're sent somewhere else." Damon smirked. Elena was in no mood to fight. "As long as you keep your boxers on."
Damon smirked and said, "Ok." Damon walked into the bathroom to see Elena taking off her camisole and turning on the shower. "Hmm." Damon said as Elena gave a small smile and took off her jeans and got in. Damon took off his pants and shirt and followed her in.
Elena was already washing out the shampoo. Damon frowned at her. "You're moving a little quickly."
"I'm just a little upset. Tonight was something I never wanted to relive." Elena said as Damon stepped around her and into the spray of the water.
"Wait until my time. It'll be hell for me." Damon said.
"What did you put in? I never did see it." Elena asked noticing how irresistible the water made Damon.
"You'll find out." He said as he grabbed Elena's shoulders. "But are you ok? Losing your parent's is hard."
Elena smiled at his attempt at trying to make sure she was ok and hugged Damon's hot wet body. "Thanks." She said as Damon hugged her back. Elena looked up to Damon's face and said, "But stick to the asshole act. It suits you better." She smiled.
"Ok." He smirked at her and held her close. "Are you as horny as I am?"
Elena glared and backed away from Damon. "I could never be as horny as you are." She laughed and conditioned her hair as she watched Damon wash out his hair. She thought it was the sexiest thing she had ever seen. "Enjoying that?" He asked as he opened one eye to look at her.
Elena just rolled her eyes and stepped around Damon and washed out her hair. "You look like you need some help." Before Elena could reply Damon had his hands on her hair pushing down the conditioner and looking into Damon's eyes.
Elena felt a strong pull towards Damon and she leaned forward a little and Damon leaned until he was just at her lips. Elena paused and Damon went timidly towards her until their lips touched and both of them felt little electric tingles going everywhere.
Damon and Elena both pulled away and then looked at each other again and pressed into each other and started a full blown make-out session in the shower. It lasted a few minutes until there was a beeping noise coming from near the sink.
Elena pulled back and looked at Damon. "I set a watch to know that we have an hour before we need to be ready to go."
Elena smiled and rinsed out her hair and Damon did the same as they got out of the shower. Elena quickly blow-dried her hair and Damon walked out of the room to grab his clothes. Elena switched her wet underwear for the dry ones Damon had bought. Even if they were a black thong and a black bra that clasped in the front. Damon walked in and smirked. "I thought you needed a little kink."
"I can see that with the thong and front clasp." She laughed. Damon smirked and said and took out his boxers from the pile. Elena grabbed the black lace camisole, the purple v-neck and black skinny jeans. She quickly placed them on and Damon quickly changed.
Elena walked out of the bathroom and saw the clock said that it was 11:30. Elena frowned knowing that Damon had picked something probably horrible that happened to him. Elena was looking out the window and saw the ambulance lights finally die out and she sighed. She knew her parents were dead and she was undergoing surgery. Damon walked up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist.
"My parents were declared dead at this time." Elena said as she looked at the hospital and saw Matt, Caroline and Bonnie all rushing in.
"Well we're out of here in a little while so lets forget about what's going on and finish what we started in the shower." He said as he nuzzled her neck.
"No." She said as Damon started sucking in the pulse point on her neck. Damon stayed there for a minute until Elena pulled away and said, "Did you just give me a hickey?"
"Check for yourself." He smirked. Elena frowned and walked to the vanity mirror and saw a red mark forming on her neck.
"What am I supposed to tell people?" She asked him as she covered up with her hair.
"That your insanely sexy boyfriend got carried away and you completely approved of it" Damon smirked.
"You're my boyfriend now?" Elena asked ignoring the rest of his comment.
"Your insanely sexy boyfriend." Damon smirked.
"I'm so happy I might explode." Elena laughed sarcastically.
"Sarcasm isn't really your thing, maybe you should leave it to the professionals." He said pointing to himself. Damon looked to the clock and saw 11:59. Damon wrapped his arms around Elena and said, "Be prepared to hate me."
"Why?" Elena asked.
"Because of the time I put in. If this stupid thing works again." He said. Elena glared and then she felt a rush and she closed her eyes and clung to Damon.
When Elena opened her eyes she saw a forest and a bunch of girls in old dresses and she looked at Damon and glared. "You didn't."
