Chapter 1: What's Wrong?

I watched your tail lights fading
I try but it still won't fall
I remember what it feels like to know love
And have it taken away
Can't think of what I've learned right now
But I'll be thanking you someday

Elena's POV

I didn't really knew what was going on. I was just laying there confused. I mean, I didn't have to lay there when I knew that I was in love with him but my legs didn't move as I lay there on my bed. I just stared at my ceiling. I was in love with him but.. there's a huge problem. His brother. I didn't want to hurt him. Not at all! I had to choose, so I'm choosing him. I finally sat up from the bed to move to sit on the edge. How am I going to do this? I thought to myself. I got up from the bed and grabbed the keys to my car. I was going to go to him whether he likes it or not. I ran down the stairs to the door.

"Where are you going?" I heard Jeremy come behind me. I turned to see him standing there looking at me with his arms crossed his chest. I smiled and dangled my keys in the air. He nodded understanding who I chose. "Be careful, Elena. I hope you know what you're doing."

"I will." I smiled at my brother. "I do, I know I do."

"Well, Tell him I said congrats." Jeremy smiled shaking his head as he left to do whatever he was doing before. I got my shoes on before I opened the door. I closed the door and sprinted to my car. I hopped in and left the driveway.

You can do this, Elena. I walked into the place he was waiting or looking over. It's not like he's going to bite... hard. I laughed mentally at that as I walked to the place. I finally got to designation and breathed out. I opened the door to find him with his phone in his hand. I smiled at how young he looked. I closed the door, hard. He looked up to see me standing there. My emotion's was everywhere. My heart was going crazy just standing there looking at him. He parted his lips.

"El-" I cut him off before he finished saying my name on his beautiful lips.

"I need to say something." His face dropped but he covered it in a second flat. "I love you. After everything, I love you. You understand me more than all of my friends. You've kept me and my family alive when I couldn't. You're always there. Everywhere. I just can't shake you. I've tried but I can't. You consume me. I don't care about what anyone says, or does. I'll be in love with you because I can, and I'm happy. You make me happy. That's why I choose you"

He just looked at me with watery eyes. I looked down and nodded softly before turning around. I knew what that meant. He rejected me. Damon Salvatore rejected me. I was about to walk out before a strong hand pulled to them. I was now pressed against a hard leather clad chest. I looked up to meet Damon's blue eyes. He looked down at me with vulnerability in his eyes. He shook his head a little. "Say it again."

I breathed out. "I love you, Damon."

"Elena..." He dragged my name out. "I need to tell you something."

"Yes, Damon?"

"I love you too, Elena." I smiled up at him. He lent down before his phone went off. "Seriously, every fucking time!"

"Damon speaking." He hissed over the phone. "What?" "Ste-" "Yeah, she's with me." He nodded at Stefan over the phone. I just stood there waiting for him to get off it. "Yeah, bye." He placed his cell in his pocket and sighed. He looked up at me with a sorrow face.

"Damon." I said his name in a stern voice. His face dropped in sadness. "What's wrong?"

"Alaric's dead." His voice dripped with sadness.

"What?" I was confused. I scratched my head in confusion. If he's dead, shouldn't I be dead? "Shouldn't I be dead?"

"I don't know." He sighed confused aswell. "But I think it's safe to go home now."

"Finally." I sighed as I smiled at him. "I'll meet you at home or...?"

"I'll meet you at home." He smiled and walked over to me with a smile. He leaned down and crashed his lips onto mine. Our lips molded together perfectly. His hands were all over my back as my hands were in his hair and on his neck. I felt all the passion and love he felt for me. I tugged at his hair making him moan a little. He stopped a little bit too early for my taste. "Well, that will due me over till we're home."

"I love you." I smiled up at him. He smiled gently at me.

"I love you too." He let me go and held out his hand for me. I smiled as I took his hand for the first time.

It felt right.
