Elena POV

I glanced up through content lids, to find a blurred figure resembling my blonde best friend, open-mouthed and furious.

"Caroline?" I called curiously.

She glared down at me and I swear if looks could kill I'd be a pile of charred ash on the floor right about now.

"Huh? Who's Caroline?" Damon mumbled, nuzzling my neck and softly biting the sensitive skin there, making me let out a breathy giggle.

"I am Caroline, you dick. Now, I suggest you get your sorry ass off my best friend right now, before I pummel you to death." She said, before suddenly pulling him off me and pushing him to the cold floor. I whined at the loss of body heat but I was too sated to move, so I tried to talk as best as I could, but it came out as a slur to my own ears:

"Car l'me h've s'me fuuuuuuuuun, youuu kn'w I likeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee to h'f lots n'd lots n'd loadsyyyyyyy ffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun!" I laughed sweetly as she turned to me with a raised eyebrow, I don't even know what was so hilarious, but I couldn't stop myself. I saw her lips quirk at the sides, though she tried to hide her amusement, and lifted my arms for her like baby. She sighed, exasperated, but by the way she lightly chucked under her breath afterwards, I knew I'd been forgiven.

"Come on then ickle baby," Caroline cooed, before placing her hands under my armpits and lifting me up into her chest. I snuggled closer, looping my arms around her neck and my legs around her waist so I wouldn't fall. She held me tightly to her and carefully stepped over Damon's body, but not without kicking him in the side first. He groaned and fell back down onto the ground. My best friend smirked evilly and made her way out of the darkened booth with me wrapped up securely in her arms.

After weaving our way out of the grinding orgy on the dance floor, I finally felt fresh air filling my lungs, rather than the dirty, cheaper version of sweat, smoke and sex offered up in the club. I gasped quickly, gulping down clean air as fast as I could like I was someone starved. Lifting my head from the crook of Caroline's neck, I looked her straight in the eyes.

"I'm sorry, please don't tell. Don't take me there!" I pleaded, allowing unshed tears to blur my vision.

"Oh 'Lena it's ok, you know I'd never do that to you. He doesn't need to know. And just to let you know, that guy was ridiculously hot anyway, I would've done the same." She winked cheekily as I laughed and kissed her cheek. Quickly I stuck my tongue out and licked the side of her face. "Ew ew ew, what was that for?" she squealed.

"That was for being the best friend ever! I love you!"

"Yeah yeah," She continued walking to the car, "Do you want me to lick you just because you're the best friend I could ever wish for?" Caroline teased, dropping me into the passenger seat and clicking my seatbelt into place.

"YES! I LOVE BEING LICKED!" I shouted, it was loud to my own ears. I giggled drunkenly when Caroline told me to "shush" and flipped off the passers-by, when they attempted to make suggestive comments.

"You're crazy, I'm taking you back home." I went to protest, but she shut me up by holding up her hand sternly. "Don't worry, I'll stay with you and say we had a few to drink but I took you straight home after, okay?"

"Okay." I replied, satisfied with her plan. She smiled and closed the door lightly, jumping into the driver's seat and speeding away from my sexy mistake.
