A/N: So this is my second Delena fanfic, so I'm still new to writing fanfics for this definitely endgame couple. Um, I was inspired by my boring Microeconomics class to write this fic. I came up with a few ideas and just began to type. I hope you like it. I will try to update as fast as I can because I already have ideas for the following chapters. Please read and review.

Whoosh! Whoosh! The wind batted against the window. The storm was erupting. The rain had become heavier and the rumbling sounds of the thunder filled the streets. Lighting flashed snapping branches of off trees. The streets were flooded as the sewer could no longer handle any more water. The water started to spill in the middle of the road causing cars to hydroplane. Some people began to lose control. One person quickly tried to grab on to the steering wheel. Their foot pressed on the brake as the steadily drove at 25mph although the speed limit was 40. The days weren't usually like this in Mystic Falls, but sometimes it just happened.

Elena closed the blinds and pulled the curtain. Her mom was in the kitchen preparing dinner. Her dad had just walked into the kitchen landing a peck on her mom's lips.

"The last day of summer and it's raining. Just great," Elena complained.

Miranda said, "Stop complaining honey. Summer was bound to end."

"Yeah, but I wish it wouldn't." Elena laid her head on the couch as she put the back of her hand on her forehead.

Miranda mentioned while opening the fridge, "Why don't you call Matt?"

"Because we broke up," Elena covered her eyes. She no longer wanted to continue the conversation, but she knew that her mom would ask.

Grayson asked, "Why? I liked that boy."

"I don't know. I felt like I couldn't be myself. He didn't understand what I wanted," Elena got up in surprise. She hadn't expected her dad to ask her.

Grayson question, "So what do you want?"

"I don't know." Elena backed on the couch kicking her legs. She began to mutter to herself. What did she want?

Grayson said, "Teenagers."

"And we have two of them," Miranda continued. Grayson wrapped his arms around Miranda's face and kissed her again.

Elena annoyingly said, "How cute, but can you do that when I'm not around."

"Fine. By the way, Elena I need you to go outside and buy some things at the grocery store for dinner." Miranda said in punishing way.

Elena replied, "But there's a storm outside."

"Well, then I will give you an umbrella," Miranda picked one out of the closet. She then handed it to Elena.

Elena cried, "But there's also lightning outside. All an umbrella is going to do is get me killed."

"Then put on a raincoat or a hoodie before you leave."

Elena ran up the stairs. She opened up the closet and pulled out her PINK Victoria Secret hoodie. Miranda had already given her the list of items to buy. The list was pretty short, but the grocery store was 7 blocks away. Elena couldn't take the car because she knew that her dad would murder her otherwise. It was probably because she didn't have her driving license. Instead she walked down the street passing dewy grass and swaying trees. Standing under a tree did not feel like the safest thing. Cars drove past her therefore spewing water from the street onto her. Elena was too tired to be angry the cars. She passed some football jocks in a car that was not able to recognize her. They were definitely driving too fast like the idiots that they were. She still couldn't understand why she ever hanged out with those people. The reason was simple, Matt. Matt wasn't a bad guy, but when she was around them Elena just felt fake. She felt like Casey from Life with Derek when she went out and broke up with Max, the quarterback. Now that is what you call a coincidence. Elena continued down the road as she entered the grocery store.

The heavy rain began to lighten up. He could start to feel the rain drops. It was the only thing that could clear up the thoughts in his head. He lied on top of the roof of the abandoned café. The windows and doors had all been boarded up. It had been closed for 43 years. He remembered when it was still open and he would visit. It was one of his favorite places in Mystic Falls. But with time, everything had gradually disappeared including his humanity. He had fallen and felt empty. Only lying face up could make him feel alive again. He could still smell the air and the water still drenched his hair. He would peak once in a while to watch what was happening on the streets. He noticed someone walking in a purple hoodie. He didn't pay much mind to it. He lied back down on the roof. He peaked back up his head when the doors of the grocery store rang four blocks away. The female in the purple hoodie walked out of the automatic door. She pursued running across the street when a car began to hydroplane soon crashing into her. He ran towards her, and picked her up out of the way. She was baffled, and so was he. He didn't understand why he did it. It was out of his character. He must have been swept up in his previous moment. She gasped and soon began to spoke.

"You saved me," Elena said.

Damon replied, "Yea, it doesn't happen often."

"But how?" Elena questioned.

Damon said, "I ran, picked you up, and dropped you here. The end."

"What's your name?" Elena asked as she pulled herself off the ground.

Damon retorted, "I don't think it matters."

"Well, I would like to know who I should give my gratitude."

Damon said, "I'm right here so you're welcome." Damon was soon about to leave, but Elena grab hold of his arm. She pulled down her hood revealing her face. A confused look crossed Damon's face, "Katherine?"

"No, my name is Elena," Elena flashed a smile.

Damon flashed a smile, "Why are you out here in the middle of a storm?" Elena hadn't realized that rain had gotten heavier again.

"I could ask you the same question." Elena started to pay more attention to features. She hadn't noticed at first because she was still panting from almost being run over. She stared at his face. His jawlines seemed so prominent. His black hair made a deadly combination with his pale, blue eyes. She could still remember the smile that he flashed a few seconds ago. It was…cute.

"You're staring." Damon said, "I can see why."

Elena retorted, "I wasn't. It's just been a long day. My boyfriend and I broke up. He keeps on trying to make me into someone I'm not. He doesn't understand who I am or what I want."

"I know what you want," Damon spoke.

Elena giggled, "So what do I want, mysterious stranger?"

"You want a love that consumes you. You want passion, with a mix of adventure, and a little bit of danger."

Elena said slightly amazed, "Oh really!"

"I hope you find everything that you're looking for." Damon compelled her. At the same time, he kissed her left hand in as though he was greeting her although he was saying goodbye. "Forget ever meeting me." Damon ran off into the night.

Elena walked home. When she got home her mom yelled at her for taking so long. Dinner would take longer to prepare. Miranda asked what had taken her so long, but Elena couldn't remember. Elena's hoodie was completely soaked. She had now wished that she had brought the umbrella. She went to her bedroom to change out of her wet clothes. She headed back downstairs into the living room. She grabbed the folded blanket and wrapped it around herself. Her mom had already prepared some hot chai tea for Elena to drink. Elena felt freezing to the core. She brought the tea back with her to the couch. She sat in a pretzel with the blanket wrapped around her. Elena began to feel chills except in her left hand. Her entire left hand felt like it was on fire. She had though it was because she was carrying the chai tea. Her right hand had felt war,, but not burning like her left hand. The hottest part was her left pointer finger's knuckle. She rattled her brain. Their felt like there was an empty hole. Elena felt like there was something missing. Something that made her felt special, but something that she had no recollection of. She sat there still wondering. Elena sipped on her tea. When she was done, Elena put the cup on the coaster. Her tiredness had caused her to fall asleep on the couch. Elena thought it was best to just forget it, but it still annoyed her that she was missing up on something that she considered beautiful.

A/N: Hope you liked it. I included part of the flashback scene from 3x22, but differently. I didn't want to make the first chapter really gushy because then I would think that it is moving too fast especially since I haven't even displayed all the other characters. I might have to do some research for my ideas, so look forward to it. Thank you so much for reading and don't forget to review. Reviews help the though process and help to motivate me. Thanks again.
