Elena
Chapter 1- Adoration
Damon stared at her, marveled. The way she laughed, the noise of her breathing, the rhythm of her heartbeat, everything about her was perfect. He could go to the end of the world just because she asked him to. He would put himself at risk to protect her. He had watched as she went through tough and happy times in her life, but he could still find no flaw in her. She was his Aphrodite, his Helena of Troy, his Juliet. Damon could have looked at her for centuries and he wouldn't even notice time passing. He saw the corners of her lips twitch up and his did as well. She was happy, and that was all he could ever ask.
• Damon, what are you staring at? - Elena inquired, laughing.
And there she was again, laughing, almost making Damon lose all sense of reality. He wanted her to laugh forever just so he knew she was enjoying herself. He would gladly watch her, even if that was all he could ever do, watch from a distance while she had fun, possibly dated someone else. She was perfect, she deserved a perfect man.
• Nothing, Elena, nothing. - He answered, almost sighing.
