Au – What if Damon died just before the wedding to the girl of his dreams? Or did he die?
Elena's eyes fluttered open she layed there staring at the ceiling. Everything she felt was gone. Everything she had loved was gone. It had been a year since she cradled his body, A year had gone by and her heart was still aching as if he only died yesterday. Elena looked down on her finger was still the ring he gave her, the ring represented a promise a promise he broke and she wasn't about to give up the ring so easily.
Elena was standing by the mirror flicking her hair behind her ear when she felt warm hands wrap around her waist. His entire body fitted her perfectly she knew who it was just by the way her body tingled with just one touch. She spun around and he smirked without saying anything she crashed her lips down on his.
"Missed me" he chuckled. Not letting go of her.
"More than you would think" she gasped she didn't want t stop kissing him but she herd his footsteps. Stefan Salvatore was with him. She let out a grunt and layed her head in his chest, he smelt like bourbon. Damon and Stefan had disappeared for a week leaving nothing but a note and now he was back she wanted nothing more than to let him throw her on her bed and have a way with her but that wasn't happening not now.
Stefan was still pissed at Elena for picking Damon. Stefan would of beena good choice he was responsible and safe but Damon made her skin crawl just by a touch he knew how to touch her to make her scream. Damon was dangerous but he would never let anyone hurt his girl not in this life time or the next there love was pure and everyone could see that.
Stefan barged in the room. "Elena we need to talk" Damon threw his finger up to his brother
"Not now brother me and Elena have something important to do" he snapped his head at Stefan taken hold of Elena's hand
"We do" she tilted her head raising her eye brows.
Damon took her hand and vamp sped out of the house so quick that Stefan didn't have any time to speak. Elena put her head in his chest she hated when they vamp sped to places it would always give her a blurry vision. Her head was spinning so fast it was still trying to catch up with her, Damon finally slowed down he held her for a few minutes staring at her. Before placing her on the ground. Elena looked around they weren't in mystic falls no more, the scenery was much prettier the petals were falling from the ground. The trees were covered in pink flowers Elena turned her head to focus it back on Damon who was now kneeling in front of her with a diamond ring.
"Elena gilbert will you do me the honour of marrying me and I promise to love you and hold you till the end of time" Elena threw her hands to her mouth. She was completely gobsmacked she froze for a minute and stared at him and back at the ring.
"I will" she leaped from the ground kissing him. Damon wrapped his arm around her waist spinning her around.
On the day of her wedding, they had planned a small wedding just them and a few friends when Katherine and a bunch of vampires attacked. Elena was knocked out but when she came to her wedding dress was covered in blood. She prayed that day it was his but it was she saw his corpse laying in the middle of the floor cold and out of it. Elena refused to leave his body she forced Stefan to bring him up to his room and she layed there with him but she knew he wasn't waking up 2 weeks had passed and he wasn't coming back to her. Elena asked Stefan to deal with the body, she didn't want a funeral she wasn't ready to say goodbye to the love of her life.
A year later and Elena wasn't over it. She had this feeling in her gut that he was still out there but no one would believe her. She remembered the nightmares she had they would always be the same Damon was locked up in a cellar and Stefan was torturing him, but no matter how much pain Stefan put him through he would always call out her name. Elena had to find the cellar from her dream she had to move on somehow and if she continued having her dreams there was no way she was going to have a semi normal life.
