Damon tried it just for fun, but the more he chatted with the girl online the more he kept falling for her. He typed quickly and sighed as he waited for her response.
"Are you seriously still on that dating website?" Stefan said, shaking his head.
"Yeah Stefan so just quit it," Damon said as he read the response and he couldn't help but smile.
Damon typed again. "We're actually talking about meeting each other."
"Well what does she look like?"
"I don't know that's what's so exciting about it," Damon said as another message from her popped up.
"What about Elena?" Stefan questioned him.
"Well I can't wait for Elena, besides this is just for fun," Damon said, drinking in excitement as the girl's response came up.
"What about if it's some old lady," Stefan said, laughing lightly. "You ever heard of catfish?"
"Do you have to be such a kill joy?" Damon said, his eyebrows furrowing.
"I never thought you would be into this," Stefan said, leaning in to read over Damon's shoulder.
"Well according to this site we are 90% compatible so there," Damon said with his fingers lingering over the keyboard as he thought about what to type in order to impress her.
"She's just so smart Stefan," Damon said, reading her response over again.
"Yeah maybe because she's probably a lot older than what you might think."
"Look, I finally found someone who I connect with in a lot of ways," Damon said, "and she can't possibly be a lot older than me."
"Well I hope you don't get disappointed once you finally meet her," Stefan pointed out. He tapped his brother playfully on the shoulder. "Besides she doesn't even know you're a vampire."
"Oh, but she might be into it. She says that one of her favorite shows is True Blood, so I don't think it will be a big deal."
"So what else have you two been talking about?" Stefan said suggestively.
"Well that's the best part she says she's a virgin, but I think she will be wild. She actually sent me a sample of her writing and I told her I think she should be a writer."
"And you told her that didn't you?" Stefan asked.
"Well yeah. She writes erotica like Marquis de Sade. And she just knows things. Like I actually asked her as a joke how much costume changes did Vivien Leigh make in Gone with the Wind? And she did answer it. She typed 37. So Stefan to answer to your question I'm not just interested in her body."
"Really?" Stefan said skeptically.
Damon smiled. "I'm going to ask her to come to The Grill. She says her favorite color is green, so I'll wear that green dress shirt I bought last week."
"How long have you two been talking?"
"A month."
"Yeah and you didn't ask her what color her eyes were? Or tell her that you have pretty blue eyes?" Stefan said now joshing him.
"No, because with this site you're not supposed to besides she'll think I'm shallow. Besides when she sees me I'm sure she'll like what she sees."
"Remember to leave the bragging at home when you meet her."
"She's so sweet," Damon commented. "She likes to shoot pool, swim, read, write and study languages not many girls are like that these days you know."
"Whatever happens," Stefan said, "don't hurt her."
"What about her hurting me?" Damon asked his brother in a matter-of- fact tone.
Stefan looked into his brother's serious face and shrugged. He was curious as to whom Damon would meet at The Grill that he actually wanted to accompany him.
"What if it turns out to be a man?" Stefan said.
"Then he will just be my meal," Damon quipped.
Damon logged out of the site and looked at his brother. "I'm meeting her tomorrow at The Grill. I told her I would be wearing a green shirt so she could identify me."
"You want me to come with you?" Stefan asked laughing lightly.
"No, I don't need a chaperone," Damon said, getting up.
"I can't wait to hear all about it," Stefan said.
"Listen don't tell anyone about this." Damon said. "I'm doing this for fun."
Stefan crossed his heart and held his pinky out to his brother, who at first seemed like he was going to pinky promise but he just shoved it away.
"Well I can't wait to hear all about it," Stefan said, with his hand on his forehead.
"So he's really deep Elena," Bonnie said, logging out of the website.
"What if you're talking to some pedophile or some strange old man?" Elena said, making a disgusted face.
"I'm not," Bonnie said but she sounded unsure. "With this website, you're not allowed to put a picture up, but according to this we're 90% compatible."
"Yeah so," Elena said, shrugging her shoulders and looking doubtful. Bonnie sighed at her friend's response, but knew she was just being like this because she cared about her.
"Look, I just don't want you to get hurt," Elena said, patting her friend's back.
"Is Jeremy working tomorrow?" Bonnie asked.
"No," Elena said puzzled.
"Good," Bonnie said a little too quickly. "You see I'm going to meet the guy tomorrow at The Grill and I don't want Jeremy to think I'm trying to make him jealous."
"Right," Elena said. "By the way do you want me to come with you in case he turns out to be a serial killer?"
"Elena, I'll be fine. Remember I'm a witch."
"Right," Elena said, laughing at the thought of Bonnie using her powers on the guy. "He doesn't know that does he?"
"No," he doesn't," Bonnie said, walking over to her fridge. "Besides he said he loved witches and that one of his favorite shows was Charmed, so I don't think I have anything to worry about and he's making an effort. He told me he was going to be wearing a green shirt so I can spot him."
"Well at least I hope he's hot," Elena said and Bonnie nodded.
"Me too, but he says he loves to cook, read, and travel so at least we know he's smart."
"You know who else is smart? An old guy," Elena said now laughing hysterically as she imagined an elderly man with a cane coming over to Bonnie wearing a faded green shirt.
"Don't tell anyone else about this," Bonnie said, looking very serious.
Elena nodded and smiled. "I won't, so don't worry."
"Gosh tomorrow is going to be awesome," Bonnie said.
"I can't wait to hear all about it," Elena said excitedly.
That night Bonnie and Damon had difficulty sleeping, not knowing what tomorrow would bring.
I hope you guys enjoy this. This will be a short story and let's see what happens next.
