They say that there's always room in life for chance encounters, but not ever chance encounters ends like this. It had all started when Damon's girlfriend Katherine Pierce broke up with him. It had been a big and terrible breakup and it seemed like he would never love anyone again. All he wanted to do was forget the pain, so here he was lying in the middle of the road trying to contemplate what his next move in life was. He was about to get up when he heard footstep on the road and a girl talking on the phone.

He stood up in shock this girl looked and sounded like Katherine. What was Katherine doing out in the middle of nowhere at this hour?

Damon rushed to the girl startling her as he did so Now that he really looked at her this girl didn;t really look that much like Katherine. They had some startling similarities, but Katherine would never be caught dead with her hair straight. Who was this girl?

"Katherine." he said looking at the girl who looked so much like her.

"No, I'm-I'm Elena."

"Oh. I'm sorry you just. I'm sorry. You just really remind me of someone. I'm Damon."

"Not to be rude or anything Damon, but it's kind of creepy that you're out here in the middle of nowhere."

"You're one to talk. You're out here all by yourself."

"It's Mystic Falls Nothing bad ever happens here. I got in a fight with my boyfriend."

"About what? May I ask?"

"Life, the future. He's got it all mapped out."

"And you don't want it."

"I don't know what I want."

"Well that's not true you want what everybody wants."

"What? Mysterious strangers who have all the answers?"

"Well let's just say i'ver been around for a long time. I've learned a few things."

"So Damon tell me what is it that I want?"

"You want a love that consumes you. You want Passion and adventure and even a little danger."

Elena smiled getting a little closer to him.

"So what do you want?"

Damon smiled at the girl and leaned into her giving her a kiss on the lips he had to admit that they felt good but they did seem to have a deep connection and some major chemistry.

When he pulled away, she looked at him stunned.

"Well Elena I hope you find everything that you're looking for."

"I hope you do too."

He gave her a curt nod and walked away not knowing that this would be the last time he would see Elena Gilbert again.
