"Stefan thinks I have feelings for you." Elena blurted out as she looked up at Damon staring him in the eyes. Damon didn't reply right away he seemed to still be processing what Elena had just told him. He tried his best not to be hopeful because he knew that he would most likely just end up being hurt. There was no way that she actually had feelings for him. "..Do you?" Damon eventually managed to ask his voice weak and his face showing how vulnerable he really was. He watched carefully as Elena opened her mouth to say something but then closed it again.
"Yes." Elena admitted feeling her cheeks turn a light pink color because she finally admitted the truth. "Look Elena I know it's always going to be Stefan…Wait.. what?" Damon was shocked by her answer. He had expected the complete opposite from her. "I have feelings for you." She admitted again. "Oh." He replied glancing down at the floor then back up at her as he tilted his head to the side still confused. He wasn't sure how to reply, after all of this time of being in love with her he had never expected for her to feel the same way.
"I'm sorry; I shouldn't have told you that, I know that you probably moved on to some other…" Elena started saying but stopped imminently when she felt his soft hands under her chin forcing her to look him in the eyes. "Elena." He whispered as his face inched closer to hers, "I could never move on."
She smiled up at him and leaned her head against his as he pressed his lips softly against hers. She kissed back right away smiling against his lips before slowly pulling away. It was a simple kiss, but it was all that she needed to know that she was indeed in love with Damon Salvatore.
The two of them were speechless as they stared into each others eyes. Words weren't needed though because they both knew exactly how they felt. "We should probably get some rest." Elena pointed out, as she pulled away from Damon even though she didn't want to. She layed down on the bed closing her eyes because she was tired after a long day. She felt the bed move a few moments later, knowing right away that he had layed down beside her, "Good night Elena." He whispered in her ear as he closed his eyes as well, "Good night Damon." She whispered back.
