Authors Note: Here is another chapter as promised. It is Stelena as my way of apologising for the last one being delena. Chapter6: Hello there
Elena's POV
I told him what happened but I left out the part when Damon kissed me. There was no need for him to know that. All he needs to know is the important details. He listened to the whole story before saying anything.
"Elena. Don't blame yourself." He said as he put his arm around me.
"But I told him it was always going to be you and he told me I was like Katherine." I said looking up at him.
"You are nothing like Katherine. Just because you told him what she told him. It doesn't make you her."
"I told him what Katherine told him. I completely destroyed him. How could I do that to him?"
He pulled me into another hug "Don't worry. You haven't destroyed him. He'll be fine, he was just mad that you didn't feel the same way about him as he does about you."
"What if he does something bad because of me?" I said into his shirt.
He pulled me away from him and looked me in the eyes, "Elena, why do you care so much about him?"
"He looked after me while you were stuck in the tomb. I think I owe him some concern." I knew that that wasn't the truth but I didn't know what the real truth was.
He stared at me, "Ok. I guess you do owe him that much.
He pulled me up and into the house. I went to the bathroom and made myself look presentable. I finally came through to the kitchen where Stefan was making me lunch. I sat down at the island and smiled at him. He smiled back at me continuing to cook my sausages. He always knew what I was feeling like eating. I looked at him, taking in everything about him and making me lose track of my thoughts.
I was broken out of this state when my phone rang. I took it out of my pocket and looked at the caller ID. It was Jenna. I looked up and pointed at the phone and I left the room to answer it. As soon as I did I had an earful from Jenna.
"Elena Gilbert, where on earth are you? I haven't heard anything from you since you ran out of the door yesterday, talking about going to see Stefan."
"Chill Aunt Jenna, I am fine. I am at Stefan's house at the moment."
"Did you stay with him last night?"
"No, of course not. I stayed at Bonnie's."
"Well…. As long as you are not staying over at his house it's fine."
"I have to go Jenna. Stefan is making me lunch."
"Well I will see-"
"Bye Jenna." With that I hung up. I walked back to the kitchen rubbing my head. I sat down on one of the chairs and sighed. Stefan brought me a plate with some sausages and some brown sauce. He smiled at me and kissed my forehead as he set the plate down.
"What was that about?"I looked at him and raised an eyebrow.
"You weren't listening?" He looked down and said,
"You caught me."
I laughed and kissed him, "It's not your fault you have super hearing" It was amazing that when I was around him I could forget any troubles that had been bothering me. I turned back to my food as he watched me.
As soon as I had finished I got up and ran around the room. Sometimes spinning. Stefan watched me and laughed.
"What are you doing?"
"I am getting rid of all worries about Damon. Today is all about you and me."
I pointed at him and then at me as I said it, "Ok. You and me today. What do you want to do?"
I stopped spinning and stood on a remote. Music began to play out of the speakers. It was fairly new music to. I had an idea and ran to Stefan. I grabbed his hands and pulled him up.
"Let's dance." He spun me around and said,
"I don't think that that's a good idea." I turned back around and pouted.
"And why not?" He looked at me and said,
"I can't dance" I pulled him into the middle of the room.
"Yes you can so come on. There is only you and me here. He sighed and started dancing.
"Oh all right." I smiled.
Jenna's POV
I knew after Elena hung up on me she was lying to me about something. When I phoned up Bonnie and asked her if she had seen Elena she had told me she hadn't seen her since yesterday. I immediately drove to the boarding house. When I arrived I peered in through the windows. Elena was in the living room dancing with Stefan. I opened the door and walked into the room. Stefan had dipped Elena when he caught sight of me. He in shock dropped her.
Elena's POV
All I knew was that one minute I was in Stefan's arms and the next minute I was on the ground. I sat up and looked at him.
"Oww!" He helped me up without saying anything. I didn't know what had gotten into him.
"Ahem!" I spun round to see Jenna. CRAP!
She looked at me as if she was expecting me to answer. I looked up at Stefan.
"I should go." He said and he walked past her up the stairs.
"Elena. Why did you lie to me? I thought we were closer than that."
I looked at her, "Jenna, what is your problem with Stefan?"
She sighed, "It's not him I am worried about. It is about Damon. He's with you a lot and I don't think it is safe to be around someone who is quite a few years older than you."
She has no idea how much older than her he is. "Damon's not here. He left town for the weekend. It's ok. I'm ok."
"I just was worried."
"I know Jenna." She got up and walked to the front door.
"I hope to see you home tonight." I waved goodbye and watched her car pull out of the drive. I sighed and turned around surprised to see Stefan standing right behind me.
He pulled me into his arms and said, "So much for our 'you and me' day." I put my finger up to his lips.
"No. We still have most of our 'you and me' day left to enjoy. We could always go out to the park or the Grill like normal couples do."
He pulled me tighter to him. "Yeah but we are no normal couple are we?"
"I suppose not," I sighed, "What if we just hang around here and go into that little garden behind the house?"
"That sounds like a good plan. I bet I can beat you there." He said challenging me. He laughed and ran off.
"Wait that's not fair, you're a vampire." I giggled and ran off after him
Damon's POV
Chicago. I had been here 37 years ago and I hadn't have expected to return so soon but the need to get out of Virginia was too great. Elena. That's all I can think about. Why can't I get her out of my head? Even when I sit here in a little bar on what, my 14th shot, I can't get her out of my head. I barely even noticed when the seat next to me pulled out and someone sat in it.
"Hi." They said. Obviously a girl by the way the voice rang out.
"You look absolutely hammered. What happened?" I turned to look towards the girl. She had shoulder length brown hair and piercing blue eyes. She wore a light blue tank top that matched her blue eyes and skinny jeans.
"What makes you think anything's wrong?" I questioned. Why was I talking to her? How could she help me?
She assessed me before saying, "Well it takes a lot to make a vampire drink that much."
"How do you know that I am a vampire?" I looked her over.
"Wow you really are drunk aren't you because if you weren't you would have sensed that I was a vampire too the minute I sat down."
I shrugged it off, "Why do you care what happened to me?"
"Oh I don't really. I just need someone to talk to."
I smiled, "I like you. You have spunk and an attitude."
She smiled back, "So are you going to tell me what happened or not?"
I took a deep breath. I needed to tell someone about this, "Well it's about this girl-"
"Isn't it always?" She rolled her eyes. I knocked down another shot. "Carry on I am listening."
"Maybe I should start with Katherine."
Elena's POV
It has been 2 days since Damon left and I was getting worried. I was worried that I had really hurt him. One more day and then I would send Stefan out to track him down.
Stefan and I were on his couch watching a TV show when the front door slammed open. Our heads both snapped to the hallway. We watched as Damon sauntered in. I was about to run over and give him a hug when I saw that he had a woman on his arm. She was beautiful. Her hair rested lightly on her shoulders and she had on a red top and leather jacket and skinny jeans.
Damon smiled at Stefan and ignored me and said, "I would like you to meet Ruby."
She smiled and said, "Hello there."
