As promised, here is the continuation of the Vegas trip! Whoop Whoop! Thanks for being such avid readers & reviewers.
Elena's POV
When Damon and I finally roll out of bed, Caroline and Klaus already have room service on their way with breakfast.
"Good morning," Caroline says cheerily, walking into the living room with a bathrobe on and curlers in her hair.
"Caroline? How long have you been up? It's only 8:30 a.m." I wipe my sleepy eyes.
"Only about an hour and a half," Caroline responds so innocently, "but you guys better get a move on. Breakfast is on its way, but I think we should plan to leave by 11."
"Ok, great," Damon responds with his usual mockery, "12 it is."
"Damon!" Caroline whines, "Why do you have to make everything so difficult."
"Because that's what I do," he winks at her and escapes to the bathroom for a shower. I just laugh before heading back to our bathroom to join him.
As we head down to the lobby, Caroline pulls up an itinerary on her phone. "Alright, we are going to go shopping on the strip and the Via Bellagio, then have a late lunch at the Beach Café, and then come back here to take a quick power nap before we get ready to go clubbing," Caroline looks up to see all of our reactions.
"Uh," Damon shrugs, "so when are we going to the casino?"
"Seriously, Damon," Caroline pouts, "I worked hard on this."
"But I hate shopping and I'm pretty sure Klaus does too."
"We also are going to be here for more than one day."
Damon and Klaus look at each other with that "what the hell did I get myself into" look, before I intervene.
"How about this; Caroline and I will go shopping, while you two go to the casino. We can all meet back in the room at 5:00 to get ready for the nightlife. Sound good?" I ask, being the group's diplomat.
"Sounds good," Klaus quickly answers before Caroline can protest. Damon quickly kisses me on the lips and whispers in my ear. "Have fun. I'll see you this evening." He kisses my neck and gently bites me on the ear, making me squeal.
"You two are like children in a candy store," Caroline says after the boys leave.
"Yeah, but what we got is way better than candy," I smirk, while Caroline just rolls her eyes.
We spend the day trying on some of the most expensive designer clothing and browsing in cute little accessory stores before stopping to get a couple sandwiches at a little café on the strip. At 5 o'clock on the dot, we all meet back in the hotel room. After a lot of hairspray, bold make-up, leather, and sparkles, we head out to grab some dinner before a night of partying. I wear a short slim fitting black dress with short sleeves and red high heels, while Damon wears a pair of dark denim jeans and a black V-neck. Caroline wears a slim fitting pea coat with red tights, while Klaus wears a pair of jeans and a navy blue button up shirt. To be quite honest, we are a very attractive group.
The first club we go to is packed with people. The lights flicker different colors and the people dance all sorts of dances. I pull Damon's hand, dragging him to the center of the floor. I grab his hands and place them on my body while my back is to his chest. Swaying with such fervor, we can't possibly get any closer or more intimate. I spin around in his arms, so he can kiss me, but it isn't just a kiss. It starts off as lips to lips, but soon he has his tongue exploring my mouth while our hands go all sorts of places. After several songs, we get a round of drinks and then another and another. We dance some more, jumping and shaking to whatever the DJ plays for us. I glance across the room and see Klaus and Caroline dancing together, which combined with all the alcohol I'd been consuming, makes me laugh hard.
I knew she had wanted him, but she knew that he had been a terrible person. I also knew better than anybody that people change and that love changes people too. Not before too long, they are making out in the back of the club.
Before stumbling back into the hotel, we hit a couple more spots along the strip. It isn't until about 3:30 in the morning, that we all fall into bed.
We all wake up the next morning around 10 with a little bit of a hangover, but with a hearty brunch, the headaches and nausea goes away pretty fast. The rest of the day, we lounge by the pool, tanning and swimming and relaxing. We end up day drinking margaritas and mojitos and other fruity drinks.
The rest of the week continues with harmless day fun and at night it is back to hot, sweaty, sexiness until the wee hours of the morning. When it is time to head back home, we are all exhausted and ready. We actually all take a flight back to Virginia and Klaus just has a connection down to New Orleans. We say our goodbyes and show our appreciation for an incredible trip. While Damon retrieves our luggage from baggage claim, Caroline and I stand off to the side.
"So, Caroline?" I laugh, while eyeing her suspiciously, "did you enjoy Vegas?"
"Yes. The hotel and attractions were absolutely fantastic as well as the restaurants. It was all top notch and very elegant and luxurious."
"You know that by Vegas, I really mean Klaus, right?" I tease.
"That's not funny, Elena! We are friends and besides he is letting Tyler back into town if I can find him."
"Whatever, but I saw you two the other night," I smile, enjoying how frustrated she was getting.
"Ok, whatever. Nothing you can say will make me feel guilty for sleeping with him," she sighs.
My eyes get really big as I hear her confession, "You slept with him!"
"I thought you knew that! You said you saw us the other night," Caroline whispers, motioning for me to be quiet.
"I saw you kissing; I didn't know that you had sex with him!" There is a moment of silence between us, unsure of what to say.
"Ooops," Caroline says quietly right before we both start laughing uncontrollably. Damon joins us, with all of our bags.
"Alright, let's get you ladies home. You too have had way too much fun for your own good."
We just nod in agreement, but know that summer is still far from over.
I hope you all enjoyed that chapter! Please let me know what you think and if you have any ideas of other adventures that Damon and Elena can embark on over the break, tell me! Thanks for being awesome!
