Part 4
One more week passed as the two 'lovebirds' didn't speak to each other.
Damon tried to drown his attraction with scotch and Elena who had zero issues with cheating on Stefan.
Nikki pushed her body harder and accepted Jason's invitations for movies and cookouts.
Damon kept fantasizing about Nikki when he was on top of Elena.
Nikki saw Damon in her minds eye when she played cards with Jason.
Stefan hit his brother upon walking in on him and Elena. Damon shrugged and walked away.
Jason slapped Nikki when during a make out session she called him Damon. He called her a whore. She used Damon's suggestion and kneed him in a very sensitive area.
Damon Salvatore was at Mystic Grill, drowning his sorrows in numerous bottles of top shelf scotch muttering to himself how once again he had found himself at the bar of the Grill. He missed Nikki and for the first (second if he was honest with himself) time Elena was a stand-in for the person he truly wanted.
For the first (second if she was honest with herself) time Elena didn't care. She had it all. Stefan officially, Damon for when she wanted it rough and Matt to cover the days the two vampires were busy.
On the stool next to him sat a blond woman. She was in her mid-twenties, with big baby blue eyes and could probably rival him in the number of empty bottles of tequila and gin. She had finally closed the door on Jason and would grab the vampire by the fangs (she was blond, not stupid) and tell Damon she missed him.
George the bartender shook his head and brought them another round.
Nikki raised her glass in Damon's direction
"Jealousy plans suck"
"They always backfire"
Damon agreed and they downed their respective drinks.
"He hit you"
Damon said slurring a bit ready to defend her honor.
Nikki giggled
"He won't have kids anytime soon"
Damon laughed out loud at the feisty gymnast. He was about to tell her he missed her. He opened his mouth
"I missed you"
The two said at the same time.
Damon smirked to himself.
Nikki smiled to herself.
"Let me buy you dinner"
Damon proposed
"Buy me breakfast instead"
She ordered him and kissed him. Damon complied. Who was he to deny a woman what she wanted? They left the Grill hand in hand.
George scoffed and extended his hand to matt, palm up.
"Pay up kid. Told you it would work"
"Damn"
Matt swore and paid the older man fifty bucks. Then he texted Stefan who danced a victory dance and threw Elena out. He was, like his brother, a man of habit though so he sent a text to Rebekah to meet for drinks the next week.
But that's a different story.
