A/N: Who's ready for Chapter 4? I know I am!
Disclaimer: As much as I love The Vampire Diaries and Twilight. I don't own them. All credit for the characters and some plots got to the authors/screenwriters and The CW network.
My inspiration for this chapter was I Knew You Were Trouble by Miss Taylor Swift(: (This song is a perfect representation of Bella and Damon's relationship for the story.
Previously on My New Life:
"Who's there?" I called out, my voice shaking slightly.
"Now there's something I'd haven't heard from you in a while." a voice called back. A familiar voice.
Not only did I recognize the voice, but I recognized the cocky gait, the distressed leather jacket, the messy black hair and the bright baby blue eyes that stood out in the moonlight.
"What are you doing here Damon?
Bella's POV
Flashback. One year ago Phoenix, AZ
I walked in and out of the shelves of books, running my fingers over each spine of them. I picked up a book and looked at the title, reading the summary that came inside of the cover.
"Wuthering Heights. Nice choice." a voice said from behind me. I turned around and met a pair of stunning blue eyes. The eyes widened in shock and his jaw went slack. "Katherine?"
"No. I'm Bella," I said holding my hand out. "Nice to meet you..."
He shook his head and grabbed my hand and kissed the top of it. "Damon." he smirked.
I blushed furiously and gently pulled my hand from his. "So is this Katherine person your girlfriend?"
Damon smiled sadly, "She was."
"Did you guys break up?" I asked curiously.
"She died." he deadpanned.
"Oh..." Jeez I'm an idiot "I'm sorry I shouldn't have pried." I apologized.
"It's ok. I don't want to talk about her. I wanna know more about you." He smiled
(End flashback)
"Shouldn't I be the asking that?" He smirked. It made me furious. "Why aren't you in Forks with your father?"
"Why aren't you in Chicago chasing after your next meal?" I sneered.
His grin grew wider and flashed up the stairs to the porch, so he towered over me. "Plans changed."
I took a step backwards. "Mine too. Why are you here?"
"I thought I could finally do all that pesky unfinished business that I have in my home town." He said walking up towards me closing the space between us. I took another step backwards and hit the wall. Damon closed the space between us again and stroked my cheek. "I missed you."
"Yeah, well you should have thought of that before you left." I said slapping his hand away. He grabbed my wrist and saw the moon shaped scar. His face hardened and his body shook with rage.
"What happened?" he growled out. I tried pulling my wrist from his grasp, but it tightened.
"Damon, you're hurting me." I whimpered. He released my wrist but threw his hands on either sides of my face. He leaned closer to me, and asked again.
"What happened? That wasnt there when I saw you in the hospital in Phoenix."
"I-" I paused, "Wait you were there after I was atta- my accident?"
"Of course I was there! You're mother called me." he said gently. "I'll always be there."
I stared up at him tears slowly leaking down my cheeks. He brushed them away.
"Dolcezza what happened?" he asked softly placing his forehead against mine. His lips were millimeters away from mine. My breathing became uneven and the loud thumping of my heart filled my ears. I could feel tears threatening to come out from the corners of my eyes.
"I fell in love with a Cold One."
Damon's POV (A/N: I can't really write a guy's POV so please bear with me.)
I was running through the woods back to Mystic Falls, when I was hit with a scent I thought I would never smell again. I changed directions, and stopped when I saw her.
My Bella. She stood on the porch, and looked like a flawless goddess. I stopped and stared at her, admiring her beauty. Not that I would ever admit it out loud, but I loved her, as if Katherine never existed. Which wasnt true, because Bella was almost a spitting image of her. I didn't love her because she looked like her. I loved her because she was full of life, her laughter made my soul light up.
I took another step closer and stepped on a twig, snapping it in half. I heard her heart speed up and her eyes went wide with fear.
"Who's there?" she called out, her voice shaking slightly with fear.
I laughed. "Now there's something I haven't heard from you in a while."
I stepped out into the light. The soft caramel brown of her eyes hardened when she saw me.
"What are you doing here Damon?" She snarled.
"Shouldn't I be asking you that?" I smirked. "Why aren't you in Phoenix with Renée and Phil?"
"Why aren't you in Chicago chasing after your next meal?" She snapped.
I flashed over there so I towered over her. I grinned at her "Plans changed."
She stepped backwards and crossed her arms over her chest. "My plans changed too. Why are you here?"
"I thought I could do all that pesky unfinished business I have in my hometown." I said walking up to her closing the gap between us making her flush up against the wall. I brushed my knuckles down her cheeks. "I missed you."
"Really? You should have thought of that before you left!" She growled out, slapping my hand away. I grasped her wrist and my eyes flickered to the moon shaped scar on her wrist. My eyes widened with disbelief. I saw her eyes flicker to where my eyes were glued.
"What happened?" I growled out. She tried yanking her wrist back but I tightened my grip. My body began to shake with rage and my voice shook with anger.
"Damon you're hurting me." she whimpered. I released her, but I placed my hands on either side of her face so she couldn't run from me.
I leaned closer to her and asked again, "What happened? That wasnt there when I saw you in the hospital."
"I-" she paused, "Wait you were there after I was atta- my accident?"
"Of course I was there! You're mother called me." I said gently. "I'll always be there."
She stared up at me tears slowly leaking down her cheek, staining them. I brushed them away.
"Dolcezza what happened?" I asked softly placing my forehead against hers. our lips were millimeters away apart. Her breathing became uneven and the loud thumping of her heart filled my ears.
"I fell in love with a Cold One." she whispered.
I pulled away and shook my head. "Didn't I warn you to stay away from them?"
She looked at me with a smirk "Yeah but when do I ever listen?"
We laughed together. I was angry at the fact that she hadn't listened to me when I told her to stay away from them, but I didn't stay that way for long. I was just happy that she was ok.
"Why are you outside?" I asked her pulling her into a hug.
"I had a nightmare." she replied softly, her tiny arms wrapping around me.
"What was it about?"
She stiffened and tried to pull out of my arms. "I don't remember."
I pulled back a little back and looked at her. Her eyes didnt meet mine, and she was gnawing on her bottom lip. Knowing she was lying, I tugged her bottom lip out from her teeth.
"You can tell-" We were interrupted when a light flicked on. "I have to go. Ill see you later." I said kissing her forehead. I flashed into the trees and watched her walk into the house.
"I love you Bella." I whispered into the darkness, and with that I left to the Boarding House.
