Chapter 4
"Hi," Damon grinned at her. "May I come in?"
"Uh…"
"No." Alaric's voice said from behind me.
"Aw, come on, Rick. Don't be that way." Damon smirked at Alaric, who was still in his flannel pajamas, his hair almost as wild as Albert Einstein's.
"You need to leave."
Damon looked at Aimee. "He's always like this."
She inconspicuously leaned farther and farther from him. She didn't know what was wrong with him, or why she felt so weird around him, but she didn't want to find out.
"Are you afraid of me?" He said in mock-innocence. "Why, you have nothing for fear from me, I mean…you didn't last night."
"That's enough, Damon." Alaric said as Aimee walked away, hiding her blushing face. "What are you even doing here?"
"Uh, have you forgotten? Katherine is obviously controlling your little daughter, so someone has to be here to protect her."
"I can protect her."
"Wanna bet?" He smirked before his face turned serious. "Let me in."
Alaric sighed. "Come in, then."
Damon stepped through the door without even looking at Alaric. "Where'd she go?" He looked down the hall and turned back to Alaric. "Where's her room?"
Alaric sighed irately. "2nd door on the right but-" He looked up and Damon was gone. Typical.
Aimee sat on the bed when her phone went off.
Damon's there.
Yes. She responded.
A knock on her door made her jump. Thinking it was Alaric, she yelled, "Come in!" and about fell over when Damon Salvatore walked into her room.
"Damon! What are you doing in here?"
He walked over and lay down on her bed. "I came to see you." He smirked at her blushing face.
"Why?"
Damon shrugged. "I like you." He grinned.
Aimee gave him a confused look and Damon sat down next to her. She inched away from him. "Why?"
"Why not?" He leaned forward, and then pulled back, giving her a confused look.
Why wasn't she responding like she usually does?
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door and Damon suddenly jumped up and ran out into the living room.
"Rick, don't!"
He opened the door, only to be knocked to the floor immediately. Isobel walked in and stared at Aimee, then Damon. "Hello, Damon. Care to invite me in?"
