Thank you guys so much for reviewing! I'm really surprised at how much people wanted more of this. Sorry if this doesn't live up to what you expected to happen—I know a lot of you wanted Damon and Elena to get together or Elena agreeing to go out with him. I promise they will be together but just not in the second chapter ;).

When you're alone, is that when you know
That you're making the greatest mistake?
You're falling in love, and it's not enough
And you know that your heart's gonna break.
And it shows, that you're not meant to be
'Cause he's just not me.

- He's just not me by Artist vs Po


It was the first day of her last year before graduating. Elena was definitely excited. Everything was absolutely perfect. She had many, many friends (and a few close ones like Bonnie and Caroline), she had a great boyfriend (she and Stefan got back together), she had a job at Aunt Jenna's ever growing company (it was in the family and Elena's late mother decided not to take over leaving it for her little sister), and her little brother Jeremy was finally happy. She couldn't ask for anything more. The fling with the mysterious and charming man, Damon wasn't forgotten, but it might as well be. She refused to bring it up whenever Bonnie or Caroline would ask. Elena would shrug it off and tell them it was nothing. It would be best if she forgot about him. It would be best if she forgot about how much chemistry they had from the moment he had spoken to her.

Besides, she wouldn't be seeing him again would she? It was just a one time thing and besides, Stefan didn't know about it. Though they were technically broken up at that time, she had a feeling he would be upset if he was informed.

She shouldn't have to worry about him.

Elena walked hand in hand with her boyfriend towards her first history class of the week. They still had about twenty minutes before class started but Elena liked getting to her classes early—especially on the first day. Stefan didn't have the same class she did, but he decided to stick around for a few more minutes.

At first, Elena didn't notice the man sitting at the desk in front of the room. She walked to the front row of seats (still holding Stefan's hand) before setting her bag down and sitting down herself. That's when she noticed how Stefan had tensed up. She looked up at him, confused, and found that he was looking ahead. Following his gaze, Elena almost gasped to find those piercing blue eyes staring right back at her.

No, no, no, no. This couldn't be. He couldn't be her teacher. Fuck, fuck, fuck. She found herself getting lost in his shocked gaze. Even when he broke eye contact to look up at Stefan with a mix of anger, jealousy and something else… Pain? Regret? Then it was gone from his face in a second. Damon's expression went to calm, cool and collected. He looked away from them as if he had never seen either of them in his life before.

Elena knew she had to compose herself before Stefan realized something was up. She also needed to figure out why he was so tense at the sight of Damon. "Stefan? What's wrong?" She asked, tugging on his hand.

"Nothing." He said roughly. "I'll tell you later." He muttered before he bent over and gave her a kiss, making sure that Damon took a glance. "I have to get to class."

And then he left, leaving her confused as ever and just staring at Damon stupidly.

Damon too, had moved on after Elena had left. He decided it was all silly—the connection he felt with Elena. It may have just been the alcohol or the heat of the moment. It couldn't have been anything more, right? She obviously had felt that way since she left so suddenly. At first, Damon wasn't sure why he was so angry over this girl. He hadn't even known her for one whole day. There was no reason for him to feel this way. Not seeing her again helped convince himself that she really didn't matter. She was just another woman that he had screwed (and he ignored the voice at the back of his head screaming at him and trying to tell him that was not true). Besides, it would be better this way if she was a student. He had come up with a million reasons as to why it shouldn't bother him that he had almost convinced himself it was true.

He had gone back to his usual routine after her. They both moved on. They both were getting back into things. That is, until she walked into his classroom.

He was shocked and frustrated at his luck. Her being a student was possible, but what were the chances? And what were the chances that Stefan Donovan was her boyfriend? Stefan and Damon had a long history. It went back to when they were little. Their fathers were both big business owners and rather good friends. The two families often spent time together and Damon had grown to be like an older brother to Stefan. He helped the boy with homework, sports, girls—just about everything. That is, until Stefan got himself a girl. Katherine. Boy, she was something. Damon knew she was trouble from the start and warned Stefan that she would only hurt him. Of course, he refused to listen and said he loved her and that Damon only wanted Katherine for himself.

They stopped speaking to each other after one final fight where Stefan accused Damon of coming onto Katherine (the girl had convinced Stefan he had done that). And ever since then, not only had they stopped speaking to each other, they didn't even see each other. Damon had heard that the two had broken up. Katherine had only been using him for his money—just like Damon had warned him.

So he was with Elena now? For how long? Damon could tell they had been together for a good while with the way they walked and talked. There was a difference between a new couple and an old one. So had she cheated on Stefan with him? Did it really even matter? He shouldn't even care. But Damon did. He couldn't help but feel all those things he had been suppressing—those things that didn't come out because she wasn't around. He wanted her. He still wanted her more than ever.

He managed to stay focused through the class—pass out the syllabi to the students (stopping a little longer by Elena and letting his hand linger on her hand as he passed it to her). He could resist her. They both could forget what had happened between them but Damon did want to get back at Stefan. Besides, he was interested in Elena so it was a win/win. During the rest of the class, Damon took every chance he got to send suggestive stares towards Elena. It seemed to be working to an extent. She always blushed and looked away—pretending it wasn't shot at her. Towards the end, however, she started glaring at him which only amused Damon further.

When class was over, Elena was the first to get up, intending on storming out of there and possibly switching out of the class.

"Miss Gilbert." She heard him call as soon as Elena had gathered her things. She had refused to make eye contact with him.

"Yes, professor?" She continued gathering her things, still not looking at him and trying to keep herself composed.

"Please stay behind, I would like to have a word." She could hear the smirk in his voice and bit her bottom lip.

Elena nodded, glancing up around the room and watched as the other students left.

When they were all gone, she looked up at Damon who was watching her intently—the amusement clear in his eyes.

Cautiously, Elena wandered over to his desk. "Yes, professor?" She repeated, tense, yet pretending that nothing had happened between them.

His smirk widened and he raised his brows suggestively. "Mmm, professor." He repeated. "Kinda kinky don't you think?"

Elena almost gasped. Her eyes widened and she looked up at him but she regretted it the moment their eyes met. God, they were so blue. Just like the night they had met, Elena found herself melting right there. He seemed to notice because he stood up and walked around his desk to stand in front of her, the smirk never disappearing.

Automatically, Elena took a step back.

She was being cautious and Damon could tell. He could also tell that she was confused. Better change that.

Before he could say anything, Elena spoke. "Look… Dam—Sir, I think it would, uh, be best if we forgot about what happened… you know last summer."

For a split second, anger could be seen in his eyes but it faded just as quickly as it had come. "I don't know if I can resist you, Elena." He whispered huskily, quickly moving forward and closing the space between them. He rested his hands on her waist and began to grind his hips against hers.

"No…" She whimpered. She was supposed to sound more sure of herself. She was supposed to sound more confident. Hell, she was supposed to push him away. But Christ, the way he moved against her, she let out a soft moan, subconsciously rocking her hips back.

He was getting closer and closer, their lips inches apart. That's when she yelped out, "Damon, no. I have a boyfriend." She moved away from him, looking down at her feet. It was more of a reminder to herself than to inform him. He should've seen though, shouldn't he? Stefan was here at the beginning of class and he would be here soon to pick her up.

When he didn't reply, Elena looked up at him to see that he only looked smug. "That isn't going to matter."

The nerve of the guy. Elena couldn't help but feel infuriated at him suggesting that she would cheat on him. She lifted her hand and slapped him across his cheek. "How dare you." She growled at him, her eyes narrowing.

So… This was definitely not the kind of start Damon had been expecting. She did show how easy it was to seduce her, though. He'd just have to try harder next time. A lot harder since it seemed like she was truly loyal to Stefan. "Just let me know when you get bored of Mister Donovan." Damon seemed unaffected by the slap and simply moved away to his desk and began to straiten out papers. "I can take you places he would never dream of taking you. And I think you already know that from last time." Damon winked at her.

Elena's hands balled into fists. "Don't count on it." She spat at him, intending on specifically asking Stefan how the two knew each other later.

With that, Elena stormed out of the classroom, bursting with anger leaving Damon chuckling.


Please review! I would love to hear your ideas and what you would like to see. Believe it or not, I do change my plans based on what you guys want.
