I watched from afar as Katherine kissed Damon. I wished I was the one that he was kissing. If I were to tell Katherine that she'd tell me that love is a vampires greatest weakness and then she'd probably call me pathetic.
I sighed as I looked away from them because I couldn't watch any longer. When I looked back over to them, Damon was walking towards me. "Hey." He said when he reached me.
"Hi." I responded.
"Katherine said it was your turn tonight." He told me.
"My turn for what?" I asked.
"For me to be in your bed." Was all he said.
"What?" I asked. "That's insane. Do you honestly want to be in my bed?" I compelled him.
"Yes." he responded in a monotone voice which means my compulsion worked.
"I'll see you tonight." I sighed as I walked away from him. I can't believe I'm actually going to do this but I want to be with him. I want to be with him in that way.
Stefan had been exercising all morning in his room. Last night Elena fed him her blood to heal him. I didn't know that it would be bad or that he was the worst kind of vampire... A ripper. He's taking it hard but he keeps telling everyone that he's okay.
I was waiting for Damon in the parlor. He said he was going to check on Stefan but he was probably going to just to gloat. Last night was crazy. Damon said that I could stay here as long as I wanted which surprised me because I could tell he had changed.
"Hey." I heard Damon say as he entered the room.
"Hi." I smiled and he sat next to me. "Can I ask you something?"
"Sure." He replied.
"When you were human and you said that it was your turn to be in my bed. Did you want to be in my bed or did I take advantage of you?" I asked not knowing if I'd like the answer.
"Alexa, look at me." And I did. "I didn't do anything that I didn't want to do."
"Okay." Was all I said. "Did you feel anything for me? I know that It was only Katherine and It's always going to be Katherine but I'm just curious."
"To be honest. I don't know." He told me.
"Thank you. For your honesty." I sighed.
"You're welcome. Listen, I need to go to the counsel meeting. Will you be okay?" He asked.
"Yeah. I'll be fine. Go."
Damon and I knocked on Elena's door. She said that there was something wrong with Stefan and she wanted our help. She opened the door. "Good you guys are here." Damon entered the house without any problem but I haven't been invited in.
They were about to head upstairs when I said, "Are you missing something?"
"Oh, my god. I'm so sorry. Come in." Elena said.
"Thank you." I said and entered the house.
We followed Elena upstairs to her room. "Just like I remember." Damon smirked.
"Stop messing around." Elena demanded as Damon laid on her bed holding her teddy bear against her chest. I just sat on the bed next to him.
"Did you know that your uncles on the founders counsel?" Damon asked her.
"What?" She asked shocked.
"Yup." Damon replied.
"Great. We'll just add it to the list of everything falling apart." Elena said.
I noticed a broken lamp in the corner of the room. "What happened there?" I asked.
"Uh, nothing." Elena said. She seem very uncomfortable. "I'm worried about Stefan. He keeps telling me that everything's okay but I can tell he's struggling. How long will it take for him to get back to normal?"
"A few days. Give or take." Damon replied.
"It's been a few days." Elena said harshly.
"Give then. Whats the big deal?" Damon asked and with that Damon got up and gave Elena her teddy bear.
"Elena, from what I heard Stefan has been repressing everything that makes him a vampire. He can't control himself and you fed him your blood which is probably still in his system." I explained.
"He's just not himself." Elena complained.
"He doesn't consume human blood." I told her. "Of course he's not himself. You forced this on him when you made him feed on your blood."
Damon started peaking through Elena's underwear drawer in her dresser. He's such a perv. He takes one of her bras out but Elena took it from him and put it back. "Don't make me sorry for asking you." She told him.
"I'm going down stairs." I said and I stormed put of the room. I've had enough of Damon flirting with Elena and Elena acting like she doesn't like it. Whether she wants to be or not, she's just like Katherine. I saw Elena's brother sitting at the table so I joined him. "Hi." I smiled.
"Hi," He said back. "Are you one of Elena's friends? I don't recognize you." He asked.
"Actually, I'm Damon's friend. We go way back." I smiled. "You must be Jeremy, correct?"
"Yes." He replied.
"I'm Alexa." I smiled. "It's very nice to meet you." And with that Damon and Elena came downstairs.
"You ready to go?" Damon asked me.
"Sure. I'll meet out to the car." He just nodded and went outside.
"What are you doing?" Elena asked me.
"Talking." I said.
"Jeremy, go upstairs." She demanded him and he listened to her.
"What are you doing with my brother?" She asked.
"We were just talking." I told her. "Is that wrong?"
"Stay away from him." She demanded which made me stand up.
"No, I'm not one of your Salvatore's. You can't tell me what to do and you can't push me around. Listen up Elena, I don't like you. You're leading both Stefan and Damon on and I don't like that. I can kill you without even blinking. I'm over 500 years old so even Stefan and Damon wouldn't be able to stop me." And with that I stormed out of the house and got in Damon's car.
"That was harsh." He told me.
"I knew you'd be listening." I smirked. "She really pissed me off."
"Why do you hate Elena so much?" He asked.
"She reminds me of Katherine and it's not just the way she looks. Katherine and I traveled together for 400 years and she's an awful person. I know that I've killed people and that I like killing people but I never wanted to become Katherine." I explained.
"Did you want to go to the Founders Day Kick-off party with me?" Damon asked, "Maybe it'll help you blow off some steam."
"I'd love too." I smiled.
"I shouldn't be here." Stefan said. I felt bad for him.
"Did you want to leave?" I asked him. "It's okay if you do. I'm sure Elena would understand."
"Don't be a downer. It's a party for the founding families. It would be rude to skip it." Damon told him.
"Damon! He shouldn't have to be here if he doesn't want to be."
"I liked you a whole lot better when you hated everyone." Stefan told his brother.
"I still hate them but I love that they love me." Damon smirked which made me laugh. "But seriously, how are you feeling?"
"I'm fine." Stefan replied but I could he was lying. He was completely on edge.
"No cravings? no urges? Is the whisky you've been drinking all day doing it's job?" Damon asked him and I was surprised to hear Stefan laugh.
"We are who we are. There's no changing that." Damon told him honestly.
"I agree with Damon. Instead of avoiding human blood, you need to control your urges." I told him.
"Nothing will make you happier then seeing me give up, huh Damon?" Stefan asked ignoring me completely.
"It's inevitable." Damon told him.
"Stefan. I've been around for a long time. I can help you." I told him and I rubbed his shoulder.
"You know what guys, I'm just going to go find Elena." Stefan told us and then disappeared in the crowd of people.
"Damon, you need to be easier on him." I said.
"Why do you care so much?" He asked.
"You're both my friends and I don't want to see you guys get hurt." I told him.
Suddenly the music changed to dance music. "That's weird." I said and then Damon and I saw Stefan dancing with someone. I didn't recognize her. She looked older.
"There's Elena." Damon said and pointed to the bar. We made our way over to her, she was watching Stefan and she was smiling. "Have I entered an alternate universe where Stefan is fun?" Damon asked her.
"Is he going to be okay?" Elena asked.
"Eventually," I told her. "If he starts drinking human blood regularly."
"He can't do that." Elena snapped.
"Why, because you don't want him to? We are vampires, it's what we do. As long as he learns to control human blood then he'll be fine."
"Whatever." She said and walked off.
"Stop doing that!" Damon snapped.
"Why?" I said. "Everything that I told her was true."
"i'll be right back." Damon said and he walked up to she Sheriff. They started dancing so I just stood here and watched. Elena's little brother walked up to them so I used my vampire hearing.
"Sheriff, I was curious if there had been anymore information about Vicki Donavan." He asked.
"It was an overdose." She told him.
"But she was buried. Someone must have done that." He said.
"The investigation is ongoing. I'm sorry that I can't give you anymore information." She told him.
"Thank you." Was all he said before he walked off.
I followed him, "Jeremy." I called out and he turned around.
"Are you okay?" I asked.
"Yes, no, I don't know." He sighed.
"Did you want to go somewhere and talk?" I asked.
"That would be nice." He said and we found a bench and sat down.
"What's on your mind?" I asked pretending like I didn't already know.
"This girl, Vicki, I use to go out with her. She died, they say she overdosed but someone buried her in the woods. I just don't know what to believe." He explained.
"Just follow your gut. And feel how you feel. I'm so sorry this happened to you but I'm here, whenever you want to talk. I'm staying at he Boarding House." I told him.
"Thank you." He smiled.
"Of course." I said. I leaned in and gave him a kiss on the lips and he kissed me back. It was beginning to get heated until I stopped it.
"Wow." He said.
"Did you want to get out of here?" I asked.
"Sure." He said and I smiled.
Jeremy and I entered my room at the Boarding House. "This place is huge." Jeremy said.
"Yeah." I said as I sat on my bed. "I love living here."
"I bet." He sat next to me and then I noticed the bracelet on his wrist.
"Where'd you get that?" I pointed to it.
"Elena gave it to me." He replied.
"Can I see it?" I asked. I could tell it was filled with vervain.
"Sure." He said as he took it off and handed it to me.
"You're gonna let me feed off you." I compelled him.
"I'm going to let you feed off me." He said in a monotone voice confirming that the compulsion worked.
I pushed him down and crawled on-top of him. I then bit his neck and started to drink. Mhm, he tasted so good. I stopped before I took too much. I then kissed him even though his blood was all over my lips. He kissed me back. And before I knew it our clothes were off and thrown on the ground.
"You left the party early." Damon told me.
"I did." I smiled. we were sitting on my bed.
"I smell Jeremy. Did you sleep with him?" He questioned.
"Why do you care?" I asked.
"Elena won't like it." Was all he said.
"I don't care what Elena will or won't like. It's not any of her business anyway." I smirked.
"Did you feed off him?" He asked.
"Yeah, I compelled him and healed his wound." I said honestly.
"Goodnight." Damon said as he got up.
"Night." I said and with that he was out of my room in a flash.
