After everyone had settled into the island, Elena walked into the tent she was sharing with Damon and dropped her bag in the corner. She heard shuffling and saw him toss his bag down as well. She smiled when she felt him wrap his arms around her from behind. "Hi." she smiled, leaning back into his embrace. "Hi." he returned with a soft laugh, leaning down and moving her scarf to kiss her neck gently. "Nervous?" he asked, referring to the cure. Elena nodded. "Terrified." she admitted. "I'll bet I know something that could get your mind off of it…" he teased playfully. Elena laughed and turned around in his arms, hitting his bicep. "Damon!" she laughed. Damon smirked and leaned in to kiss her softly. He'd only been teasing…he hadn't intended for the kiss to go anywhere but after a few seconds, it turned more heated. Elena spoke between kisses."We…can't. Everyone is….outside." she argued. "Everyone is in their tents, unpacking and getting settled in. We can…if you want to." he offered. Elena moaned softly into the kiss. "But we can't do thaaaat." he teased her, ssshing her playfully.
A few seconds later, jacket's were unzipping, scarves were being tossed, pants were being unbuttoned…Elena could feel Damon's lips across her neck, over her jawline. She bit her lip, keeping the sounds she wanted to express inside. "Love you…" she murmured in a whisper as he laid her down. Damon stopped, hovering above her. "Say it again." he requested. Elena sat up, putting a hand on either side of his face. "I love you, Damon Salvatore." she smiled. Damon pushed her back, kissing her. "I love you too." he smiled. Damon moved in for another kiss, this one deep and full of lust. Elena responded, wrapping her legs around his waist and pulling him down on top of her. They were both still…mostly fully clothed, but it was clear to both of them where it was headed.
Suddenly, there was the sound of a throat clearing. Damon and Elena shot apart, Damon landing on his back beside her. Stefan was standing in their tent, looking thoroughly annoyed. They must have been so caught up in what they were doing, they hadn't heard the footsteps. "Shane wants to start hiking again. You think you two could finish this later?"he growled. "Um, yeah..sure. We'll be right out." Elena answered…she would have been blushing beet red if she were human. "We should—" Damon started. "Yeah, yeah. We should go." Elena said, reaching for her jacket and heading out of the tent.
