Hello, Thank you for reading my fanfiction about Damon - Elena.
I loved writing the first chapter, let me know what you think about it.

Have fun lovely's.


Chapter one: Dear Diary.

For over a century, I`ve lived in secret. Hiding in the shadows, alone in the world. Until now. I'm a vampire and this is my story.


'Dear Diary: Today will be different. It has to be. I will smile and it will be believable. My smile will say, 'I'm fine. Thank you. Yes. Much better.' I will no longer be the girl who lost her first love. I will start fresh. Be someone new. It's the only way I'll make it through.'

I washed my face and placed my hands on the sink. I let out a deep sigh when I looked at myself. My brown eyes shined in the light of the sun coming through the window. My deep brown hair was a bit curly from yesterday's funeral.

Matt's funeral was beautiful, people said beautiful things. I loved Matt for 3 years. We started dating at freshman year of high school. We've been friends long before that, like kindergarten time. It was like it was planned for us to happen.

He had this blond hair and these bright blue eyes and his smile… my god, it was just perfect. Many girls in our school had a crush on him and we're kind of jealous of me. I didn't care because he liked me and he didn't have eyes for any other girl.

Even though, don't get me wrong, I loved Matt but sometimes our relationship was a bit plain for me. I always felt like something was missing but I didn't feel like letting go off him just for that. His heart was in the right place and he loved me a lot too.

It made me kind of sad to think about the first day of school without him. He died in a car crash when driving from my house to his home. I blame myself for his dead. Bonnie, my best friend, keeps telling me that I couldn't prevent it from happening anyway. Her grandmother keeps telling her these witch stories that she could be psychic and that things are just set for the future to happen. It's kind of hard to believe though.

After I brushed my hair and putted it in a ponytail, I grabbed my skinny jeans and grey shirt and started to get dressed. I heard my brother Jeremy shout to my aunt Jenna, something about drugs or booze again. I pouted my lips wondering what kind of trouble he got himself into this time.

I packed my cheer leading outfit, wondering if I would be able to keep up since I haven't been at school for a week. You know, dealing with everything… So this was my first day since summer break.

I walked downstairs, all most running up to Jeremy. I frowned at him when I heard the irritation in his voice. "Watch out Elena." He walked in a quick pace past me and slammed the door behind him. I walked into the kitchen seeing my aunt Jenna with her hands in her hair sitting at the kitchen counter.

"Good morning Jenna" I said while pouring some coffee. "Not so good, what's up with your brother lately?" she looked up to me when I placed a cup of coffee before her. I sat down next to her sipping my own. "Ah, well you know… teen hormones?" She huffed. I patted her back gently knowing Jeremy was giving her a rough time. "I made you some sandwiches" I grabbed the plate from the counter and put them in a plastic bag to take them with me. "It's all about the coffee Aunt Jenna." She smiled and nodded, understanding me.

"How are you today?" I flinched, knowing this question would come. "I'm fine, thank you." She frowned at me like I was telling her some sort of lie. "You sure?" I saw the concern in her eyes when I turned to her. "Yes, much better" her eyes soften. I hope I convinced her.

Bonnie picked me up for school, we talked about the funeral and the time passed by quickly.

Meeting up at the lockers in school Caroline came to us. She's also my best friend and I she couldn't be at the funeral yesterday because she was out of town with her mother. Not that everybody was there anyway. Only half of the class got there even though everybody was invited. At least I wasn't the only one missing a day or two or for me a week.

She walked towards me and squeezed me into a tight hug. "Elena, how are you feeling?" she turned to Bonnie. "Is she okay?" she asked Bonnie. I frowned and smiled. "Caroline I'm right here." She turned to me with this sad face. "And yes, I'm fine, much better." She nodded and went on with her happy daily routine. "Well, I hope I'll see you at cheer leading practice today?" She bumped up and down full of excitement. This was Caroline though, known for being the perky, happy blonde.

When I wanted to reply she was already gone. Dancing through the hallways. Bonnie let out a giggle and placed my arm with hers. "Have you heard? We have this new hot teacher for English." I smiled at her, knowing that it didn't really interest me I was still curious.

When we reached our class I walked in and found myself a seat. The teacher hasn't arrived yet and all I knew his name was 'Salvatore'. I huffed. What kind of lousy last name was that?

I grabbed my books and spread them on the table. "Good morning class".

I looked up and all I saw was the back of a handsome figure. I saw shiny, raven black hair, which was cut in a short manly look. I could see his muscular back and arms. Since it was summer he was wearing this simple short sleeved, black t-shirt. I was tracing his neck to his biceps and then to his lower back, where his jeans was falling softly on his hips.

When he turned around I looked directly into his icy blue eyes. They we're mesmerizing and very stunning. I felt warmth tracing up my cheeks. I quickly glanced at Bonnie who was nodding and smiling at me. She spelled with her lips; H O T and I smiled at her and shake my head. I must say, he was very good looking.

There was a smile on his face like one I never seen before. It was more like a combination of a sexy grin and a handsome smile and his eyes smiled along with his lips. He couldn't be a teacher... at least not to teach English… I could think of better things to let him teach me.

"My name is Damon Salvatore, you're new English teacher. I already introduced myself yesterday to some of you, but since half of you weren't here I thought I'll do it again." His smile became a little more serious. I guess he took his job more serious then I took it for.

"So let's start with an introduction, shall we?" and there was his grin again. He took a list from his desk and let his eyes glide over the class. "Caroline Forbes". I took a look at Caroline whom was waving her hand in the air like a 14 year old school girl. She stood up and there was this huge smile on her face, I could see she was up to no good.

I let out a sigh and looked back to Damon whom was enjoying this a little too much. "Well, miss Forbes, tell me a little about yourself" He gave her a smile."Well, my name is Caroline, I'm 18 years old, president of the student counsel, future Miss mystic falls of 2014" She threw a wink after that sentence. She was definitely flirting with him.

"Well that's interesting" He said, but it didn't seem really seem like he was interested at all.

"Anything else?" He asked her. "Well, actually yes, How old are you Da-"He coughed like a warning, "mister Salvatore" She said quickly. "Well, "he laughed a bit, he knew what she was up too all along. This probably wasn't the first time that this happened for him. I mean, more girls with high school hormones must have asked him that. "Not that it's any of your business, I'm 26."

26? So a 7 years gap, almost 6, even though I don't know his birthday.

Why was I even thinking about that? It shouldn't concern me in any way since it was none of my business and I had no intention of dating my teacher or what so ever. I looked at him.

Damn he is so hot… I'm not a saint but not a sinner either. Keep your thoughts together Elena.

"Anything else Miss Forbes?" He asked her politely. I looked at Caroline, still standing there with a grin on her face. "Did you ever date a student?" She asked without any hesitation. "Well Miss Forbes, I think that's enough for today with the questions, don't you think?" He smiled at her; I could see the irritation on his face. I couldn't imagine how he must feel. Assaulted? Or maybe even flattered?. Caroline sat down and Damon went on with his list.

"Bonnie Bennett?" Bonnie stood up and smiled at him. "Well Miss Bennett, Introduce yourself please" she nodded. "Well, I'm Bonnie, currently 18 years old, I live with my mom, dad and grand mom, ehm… there really isn't much to tell, I live a boring life." She joked. "Tell him how you are a witch Bonnie" Caroline shouted through class.

"Miss Forbes, please keep it quiet while others talk" He warned Caroline, again….

Well Damon, you don't know what you're up to yet then if you think she talks too much already. "A witch Miss Bennett?" Bonnie was looking at her feet. "It's nothing" and she sat down.

"Okay, well let's continue then, Hm… Matt Donovan?" I heard some mumbling through the class. I looked around, some people we're looking at me and whispering. I stood up and they all went silence. Damon looked at me confused, he raised his eyebrows. "Ehm, Miss -?" I looked at him confused, not knowing what I was doing. "Gilbert." I said quietly. "Well Miss Gilbert, you're not Matt Donovan and I didn't call your name." I nodded, understanding his confusion, seems like he wasn't well informed.

"I'm – I – "I started, what did I actually wanted to say? "Miss Gilbert, if you have something to say please do so." I looked at him, he was a bit angry. Jeez, this man sounds dominating.

"Matt Donavon is the person they had the funeral from yesterday" I heard Caroline say behind me. I nodded and sat down in my chair quietly. Felt every eye staring at me. "Well Miss Forbes, you spoke again before you we're allowed to, but since Miss Gilbert wasn't saying much I'll let it go." I think he hated me already.

"Well Elena isn't very much of a talker" Caroline said, I felt irritated. Who was she to say that about me? Okay, yes, I wasn't very talk active about the whole Matt accident. But that was only because my guilt was coming up when I talked about it. She didn't have to rub it in.

"It's not like people giving me a choice" I mumbled. I knew well enough they heard me and I just didn't care. They we're all seeing me as some special case, some sort of victim. Of course I was hurt, but they didn't have to stare and gossip about me.

"And why is that Miss Gilbert?" I looked up to Damon, whom was now standing in front of my desk. His eyes we're piercing into mine, and I felt some jolt or sparkle when he frowned. He looked so good, and none of it was mine to grab. Couldn't he just take me right now on this desk? "Well- Since I can all feel them stare at me and I can hear them whisper"

The class became quiet and Damon smiled at me. "Well, Miss Gilbert, maybe you can explain to me why they all doing that" I blushed, he was so close, I can smell his after shave, even his scent is perfect. "Well, because they think I'm some sort of charity case since I am- was, Matt's girlfriend."

He nodded. "Well, now I finally understand, thank you Miss Gilbert, and I'm sorry for your loss" He placed his hand gently on mine and the jolt I felt before was much heavier, my breathing became heavier and I felt my heart skip a beat. My heart fluttered, I never felt this way before, I was so attracted to him.

His hand was gone before I even blinked once, but I still felt a warm spot where his hand has been. He continued with the rest of the class to do their introduction. When the ball rang we all stood up and got our bags.

"Miss Gilbert?" I turned around to face Damon whom was sitting at the edge of his desk. "Yes Mister Salvatore?" "Can you stay for a second; I'd like to have a word with you." I nodded and told Bonnie and Caroline to go ahead.

I closed the door when everybody left. He stood up and took a step towards me, not too close. "Elena, you must been having a rough time, since the funeral was only yesterday why don't you take a few days off?" I frowned, did I gave him the impression that I couldn't handle it? "I don't see why" I said softly but a bit annoyed.

He frowned. "Well, since you almost choked today in class, I thought it might be a good idea." "Choked?" I crossed my arms. What is he thinking? "Well, you kind of did, I don't mean to be rude, but no words came out." He smiled; maybe he didn't mean it so bold as he said it.

I sighed. "Look Dam- Mister Salvatore, I don't mean to be rude but, I feel okay. Yes, I lost a dear friend, but everyone did. Just because he was my boyfriend doesn't mean I need to be treated differently." He nodded.

"I understand Elena; you just seemed a bit… well how do you put it? Damaged…" I snored. "Damaged?" He laughed. "Okay, maybe that didn't come out right, the point is Elena, don't be afraid to ask for anything." I nodded. "Thank you mister Salvatore." He smiled. "Okay, good, now we got that settled, enjoy your day Elena" He winked at me and I felt my cheeks getting warmer. I turned around on my heels and walked out of the door.

The rest of the day went by quickly. I tried to keep up with cheerleading practice but got placed in the back by Caroline, I couldn't do it maybe I should consider to quit, you know, find a new hobby...

Caroline was throwing a welcome back party for Taylor Lockwood whom has studied abroad. We we're meeting at our local cafe named The Grill after dinner. So that all the girls had time to change their clothes and do their makeup. I was just glad I could eat at home and didn't have to spend money on it.

When I got home Jenna was already back, cooking us some macaroni. Thought Jeremy wasn't probably going to come down since he was with a girl named Anna. He brings girls home a lot lately… And sometimes I can hear them like… doing it. Gross!

Trust me; you don't want to hear your brother having sex with some random girls. He also was with Vicki, Matt's sister, which was even worse. Matt calling me where his sister was and I just had to say, she's doing something with my little brother…

I shook my head and placed myself at the table to eat my macaroni. Jenna was a great cook, she wasn't really much like my mom was, but still, she did her best.

After dinner, which my brother didn't join once again, I went upstairs to curl my hair and put on some natural looking makeup. I changed my shirt into a purple waterfall top and let my curly hair hang lose. I looked at myself in the mirror in the bedroom, "Well this just has to do."

Damon POV:

Her eyes we're so mesmerizing, she had this fierce look like Katherine had. She reminded me off her somehow, only Katherine was different, Elena seemed sweet, caring about others and most of all; I was more attracted to her then I ever was for Katherine.

My thoughts we're broken by some high school kids that came in. I was sitting at this old looking cafe, named The Grill. I had a rough day at my job, so I decided to get myself a drink and since this was the only place that looked a bit descent, since the last time I came here in the 80's, I decided to go in for some whiskey. At least that would stop my cravings about little Elena Gilbert.

"Oh my god, Mister Salvatore" I turned around to face the perky blonde named Caroline Forbes. I sighed in my head. She was the noisy one. "Oh hello Miss Forbes." I faced back to the bar sipping my drink. "I didn't know you we're the drinking type" she sat down in the chair next to me, not even asking if it is taken.

I turned to her, sighed. "Caroline, you and me is not going to happen" She raised her brow and opened her mouth to protest. "Please leave" I asked her while compelling her. "Oh my god, I totally forgot about my friends, I'll talk to you later." She replied and stood up. I nodded "Well, oh my god indeed." I said while facing back and hoping she left already.

It became more crowded and It seemed like a lot of Caroline's friends we're coming in. I was wondering with how many she slept with. I could hear them gossip about Elena, how she reacted in class this morning.

Then I heard her voice. "Hey guys" I turned around and saw her hugging Bonnie Bennett. She looked so pretty, I mean she always did, but she really made some effort. With her curls she looked even more like Katherine. She's is a dead ringer from her.

I faced back to the bar, I didn't want to get my job in trouble. I've been living my life for 150 years with drinking and doing the vampire stuff, I decided to become a teacher and better my life. And no, that doesn't mean I'm a saint. I still enjoy woman and make slight comments, but that's just who I am. I'm just a Salvatore as played in my head as I smirked to myself.

"Can I have a diet coke please?" I turned my face to the left and saw her standing at the bar. She faced me and smiled. "Hello Mister Salvatore" I nodded politely and raised my glass to her. "You know you can say Damon out of classes" She nodded. "Damon it is then" her smile became even wider and I just wanted to touch her already.

"So what's bringing you here Damon?" I smiled. "You know, the booze, the night life." She frowned a bit. Okay maybe I didn't handle that too well, she still thinks I'm the nice teacher of course. "Okay, well, have yourself a great evening Damon" she grabbed her drink and walked back to her friends.

When she reached them I saw her looking back at me. She didn't smile or show any emotion, but her eyes spoke a million words, she was curious about me, the same I was about her. Though, if she found out I'm a vampire she would kill me. Not literally of course, I mean, she probably haven't staked someone before. Or set somebody on fire... I hope.

I raised my glass to her and gave her a cocky smile. Her cheeks became a bit red and she turned around.

Well this is going to be fun.


I know I had fun, /smirksmirk
