Hello!

I'm giving the 100 themes challenge a go! I'm gonna try and release at least one a week (unless I can write a ton suddenly)

Anyway, most of my fics are Delena although I might put Stefan in a bit but as I love the DXE pairing the most, they'll all bubble down to those 2 in the end

Anyway, Enjoy!

Xx

1. Introduction

Elena couldn't remember exactly when it was that she found Damon so enticing and attractive. Was it his dark, mysterious ways or just the way he reserved that special smirk just for her. Maybe it was the differences between him and Stefan that made her prefer the elder brother. Maybe it was the infuriating way he turned up when she didn't need him there or maybe it was because he turned up when she did. She never thought she'd get used to his cockiness, his arrogance or his charms (which she thought she'd be able to avoid forever). Perhaps it was the fact that she knew even he needed a hug at times and that he wasn't made of pure evil like his brother thought. Maybe it was because she knew she was the only one who could read him like a book and that he was simply a misunderstood little boy inside who was craving for some attention. Elena felt bad for him, really. No-one understood him and thought that all his bravado and cockiness was just Damon being Damon, no-one could ever understand that it was a cover for his inner insecurities.

No-one but Elena, that is.

Elena wrote all this down in her diary and signed off with a small 'x'. She threw the green journal on her window-seat and pulled the covers back on her bed. Elena climbed in and re-arranged the pillows quickly. She turned her bedside lamp off and snuggled under the duvet. Elena began to wade through her thoughts, slowly arranging them into some sort of order where she could tackle them one at a time. Half way through this task, however, she fell asleep in the darkness. She didnt know, however, that the plump, rainbow feathered crow outside her window had seen everything she'd written and, as the crow shifted into humanoid form again, Damon let a silent tear slip down his cheek. Only Elena could fully understand him. She was the only one to have ever figured him out except his mother.

Of course she would.

She was Elena.
