Beautiful
By:XRoseX13
Summary: Damon goes over to Elena's and admits a few things to her while she is asleep, or so he thinks.
Pairing Damon/Elena
A/N: I guess this is kinda set when Damon found out about Katherine not being in the tomb. When he is all vulnerable and stuff. Oh! and Stefan is out hunting.
Damon looked into the window to see Elena's sleeping form tangled into her blankets as she slept. He slowly opened the window and went inside. He walked over to her bed and stood over Elena.
He reached his hand out and touched her cheek so lightly she never would have felt it, even if she was awake.
So many thoughts passed through his mind at the speed of lightning. The most prominent being how beautiful she truly was. Sure there was a huge resemblance to Katherine, okay so they could be twins, but there was something different about Elena. She was soft and sweet, where Katherine was rough and evil. Elena was honest which only added to her beauty. She put everything she had into a situation. He had never seen her so peaceful and calm. So. . . free of worry.
Damon stood there for a few more minutes just watching her every movement and listening to her heart beat and soft breathing before he sat down beside her.
"How could I have let Stefan get to you first?" Damon asked so quietly that it was sure not to wake her. "How could I have been so selfish and stupid? I just let you pass right by me. I wish I could go back. That I could make it so I never did anything to make you not trust me, to make you fear me. I'm so sorry. I just wish I could make up for it. I just wish- His voice broke and he stood up and walked over to the mirror.
Elena stirred a little bit in her bed and looked over at Damon.
"You can" She said her voice hoarse due to the fact that she had just woken up. She raised her arm lifting the blankets up with her, offering him a place.
"What-What are you doing?" he asked, confusion evident on his face, but he still climbed in with her.
"Your wish. I'm granting it." At that moment there were no thoughts of rejecting him passing through Elena's mind. No thoughts of telling him to get out, that he had no right to be there, and there were absolutely no thoughts of Stefan in either of their minds.
"I didn't mean to wake you" he eventually whispered
"Yeah, I know. But I'm really glad that you did." She said as she snuggled deeper into his arms that were wrapped tightly around her.
"Me too." He said and kissed her forehead, both of them smiling.
A/N I hope you liked it. This story was so easy to write. I started at like twelve thirty at night and the next time I looked at the clock it was one fifty. But it really didn't feel that long. I was amazed that it got that late that fast.
I'm gonna update Exhausted soon, or at least I will try. I have writers block with that. Also because I think it's easier to write stories from scratch. I'm gonna write one called innocence, which I will try to get up soon.
This was a oneshot so obviously I won't continue it. Hope you liked it!
