Chapter 4

EPOV

Jeremy and I got home from school and I went upstairs to clean my room before Caroline and Bonnie came over. We had a tradition of getting ready together before parties and ordering pizza. When 6 o'clock came around I called the pizza place and Caroline and Bonnie got to my house. We ate and hung out just like old times, and it felt really good to talk to them. I told them about Damon and all the weird stuff that was going on between us. I did leave out a few things though.

"You know what he did to Rebekah," Caroline said," plus I heard he robbed a liquor store with that guy Klaus."

"Caroline that's ridiculous he did not rob a liquor store," Bonnie said laughing.

"Well either way Elena should stay away from him," Caroline said," he's bad news no matter how hot he is."

"It's not like I'm going to sleep with him or anything, I'm with Stefan," I said," I'm just saying he isn't as bad as I thought he was."

"Just be careful Elena," Bonnie said," But you know we trust you right Caroline," Bonnie said looking at Caroline.

"Ugh I guess," Caroline huffed," but whatever let's get ready for the party."

We spent the next hour getting ready for the Lockwood party. Caroline curled my hair, and Bonnie helped me with my makeup. I looked in the mirror and I had to admit I looked pretty damn good. My hair was down in luscious curls, Bonnie had done a smoky eye shadow, and I was wearing a tight little black dress with my Jeffrey Campbell high-heeled booties. We all piled into Bonnies Corolla since she was acting as DD tonight and drove to the Lockwood mansion on the outskirts of town. I was still a little apprehensive about going to the party, but I was trying to stay positive and have a good time. When we got there the party was in full swing, there were already a few lightweights passed out on the front lawn. We walked inside and the music was so loud I couldn't even hear myself think. It was also really dark.

"Let's go get a drink," Caroline shouted over the music and I followed her into the kitchen. She made me some kind of mixed drink and I could tell it was strong as soon as I held the cup up to my mouth, but I needed to loosen up so I took a huge swig and continued to drink it as I walked around the party. Caroline and I did a few shots too, and I started to get that familiar warm feeling from the alcohol, and I was definitely in a better mood. I found Stefan and he picked me up into a bear hug before he pressed his lips to mine in a passionate kiss. I could tell he was wasted because he was almost never like this.

"I'm so glad you're here babe," he said over the music," let's go dance."

He led me out to the dance floor and he pulled me close to him as we danced to the loud beating music. Things quickly started to go a lot further and before I knew it we were making out in the middle of the dance floor. Then he started to wiggle his hand up my dress and he grazed his fingers over my panties right on my core. I quickly stopped him embarrassed that other people would see and he got really angry.

"What the fuck Elena," he shouted and I ran outside in tears. Bonnie had seen the whole thing and followed me out to the backyard where people were sitting around the bonfire or waiting in line at the keg.

"Are you ok sweetie," she asked.

"Stefan was trying to like have sex with me in front of everyone," I cried," and when I asked him to stop he yelled at me." I tend to get really overemotional when I'm drunk, but either way he took it too far.

"I'm sorry I know that was really messed up," Bonnie said," but Stefan loves you he's just drunk and stupid. Do you want me to take you home?"

"No," I said wiping away my tears," I'll stay I want to go get another drink." I walked away and poured some beer from the keg into a cup and went to sit by the fire. I just wanted a moment to catch my breath, I couldn't believe Stefan. He never even came out to see if I was ok, Damon wouldn't have done that I found myself thinking. Woah Elena stop-Damon isn't the best guy either, but for some reason I couldn't stop thinking about him. Almost as if life were playing a trick I heard the familiar sound of his voice.

"Elena Gilbert drinking alone," he said," you know I never pegged you for the type."

DPOV

I had seen the whole thing that went down between Elena and Stefan, and talk about a dick move on his part. Elena is obviously not the kind of girl that would practically fuck someone in front of an entire party, even I know that. I saw her run outside and cry and I quickly ditched the drunk blonde I'd been dancing with to see if Elena was ok. It's not like I care about her or anything, I was just curious. I saw her talking to that girl Bonnie and I noticed how fucking hot she looked tonight. That tight little dress with those high-heeled shoes made my dick twitch, but I quickly dismissed it knowing I'd just had too much to drink. It's not like I like Elena Gilbert, she's just attractive, and sometimes sort of ok to talk to. I can't even believe I'm thinking like this, but then I see her sitting alone by the fire and I couldn't help myself from walking over to talk to her. I walked up behind her before I spoke.

"Elena Gilbert drinking alone, you know I never pegged you for the type," I said.

"Hi Damon," she said quietly. I could tell she was upset, and I felt terrible. I mean I just kind of pitied her; once again I don't like Elena Gilbert I told myself.

"So what's got you so down in the dumps," I said, already knowing why she was so upset. I just didn't want her to know I had been watching her.

"Stefan and I are having a thing," she said," it's no big deal he's just being an idiot."

"Yeah that happens a lot with my brother," I said smirking. She looked up at me and I earned a small smile from her and I noticed how beautiful she looked in the moonlight next to the fire. I swear she is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen, and I don't use the word beautiful. I couldn't believe what was going through my mind, but I really wanted to kiss her. I copped all these thoughts up to the alcohol, but I knew I was lying to myself. I'd only had a few beers, and I wasn't even tipsy. I wanted to grab her face and bring her lips to mine, bit she interrupted my thoughts.

"I just wish Stefan would be more understanding," she said," I mean my parents died and I've been having such a hard time lately," she said tearing up again. "I just want him to help me and give me a shoulder to lean on, but all he cares about is himself. He was so mad at me when I told him I didn't want to come tonight, and then I did and he treats me like complete shit." I just wanted to hold her tight until she was happy again, fuck Stefan for being such a dick and treating someone as perfect as Elena so badly. She deserved better than him. Instead of pulling her into my embrace like I wanted to I just took her hand in mine. She looked up at me teary eyed and surprised by the nice gesture.

"You deserve someone who isn't selfish with you," I said," and Stefan is as selfish as they come. You are worthy of so much more." And then I started to lean in towards her ready to do what I had been wanting for when I felt a hard shove push me off the bench.

"What the fuck is going on here," Stefan shouted," are you two screwing behind my back?"

"Calm down little brother we were just talking," I lied as I got up off the ground.

"Whatever Damon I'll deal with you later," Stefan said," Elena can we please talk?"

"I don't know Stefan you really screwed up," she said," and you haven't been very good to me lately and I don't know if this is working anymore."

"Elena please I love you," Stefan said as I rolled my eyes.

"And on that note I think I'll bow out," I said," see you cats on the flip side." I walked back inside the party to find some booze. I just wanted to drink. I can't believe I actually felt those things towards Elena. She's all gooey-eyed for Saint Stefan no matter how much of a douche he is. I'm done with all of this shit.
