I'm back here, and I'm sorry I couldn't update it soon, but family issues were driving me mad so...but here it is, hope you guys enjoy, there is some Steroline and Lot's of Delena of course.


When I woke up this morning there was no sight of Damon in the motel, I decided to go to the bathroom get a shower and prepare myself for a long day.

Last night when he said he was sorry he obviously didn't know I was awake and I wasn't going to tell either, we were both confused and mad. I'm not going to say I'm not sorry too, cause I am. I just want to go back as soon as I'm ready. I need to settle things with everyone.

I put on my strapless baby blue dress. It goes down to my knees with perfect lace it also has a simple flowers pattern with the same color of the dress only darker, it has lace also above my chest, and a simple loop rounding my waist. My hair goes on a simple curled ponytail that I made sure to use my curling-iron, but making them as natural as possible. I usually put on make-up but today I'm not feeling like it.

When I was heading to the kitchen I can hear Damon's steps and I know he is coming. When the door opens I stare at this beautiful man in front of me, Damon Salvatore, with his piercing icy blue eyes, and his perfect curved lips and his messy raven hair. I can't stop myself from staring. He also looks deeply into my eyes knowing what he said yesterday, I'm very aware of what he said too, but I don't make it seem that obvious. Damon breaks our eye contact.

"Good morning." He says really uncomfortable.

"Good morning." I say, not looking at him, trying to concentrate on finding the butter for my toasts.

"It's over there." Damon noticed I was looking for something and he immediately realizes it was the butter. He gestures me pointing to the shelf, where some glasses were also sleeping.

I understood his gesture and I put myself on tiptoes trying to reach the shelf, when I did, I almost left the tumbler fall right into my face if Damon had not grabbed me first then the glass.

His strong arms pushed me away from the broken glass that fell to the floor. They were around my waist comforting me. We stayed like this for a moment not saying anything just staring at the floor.

"I got you." When I pull myself back, I turn to face him. First I have the instinct to look into his lips then I get lost into the ocean of his eyes.

"Huh…Thank you." I say embarrassed.

"What's that look?" I didn't even notice I was staring at him. This couldn't go on, not like this.

"I...you are excused." His face was in confusion, he didn't quite understand what I meant.

"I've heard you last night." I said looking to the floor.

"I was in the room next to yours, hearing your cry." Right now I wanted to hide myself and cry out again.

"We were both mad and confused. "

"Guess that's my mainly routine." I see he got hurt, again. He leaves to the living room, to get his bourbon and I follow him.

"Look…I'm sorry. I'm sorry that I kissed you, it won't, happen again." At those last words, I almost felt like I was whispering, although Damon could perfectly hear it.

"If you say so." He said with one of his big smirks, and I couldn't help but laugh a little.

"So, when do we get started to, you know, learn vamp-things?" I said approaching him, and taking a sip of his bourbon.

"That is mine, Miss Elena Gilbert." I hand his bourbon back to him, rolling my eyes.

"Well, whenever you want." He took another gulp of bourbon and head to the room, I followed him once more.

"So…I'm not doing anything, can we do something?" I told, using my sweet child voice to please him.

"Well Elena, don't get too excited you never know." He was still talking about the same subject, the kiss…though I wasn't going to weaken. I knew Damon always had some troubles to move on, but this? This is too much, if he keeps talking about it, I don't know what I can do.

His big smirk made me roll my eyes.

"Ok. We should do something, but not in here." My face immediately turned out to appear with a big, big smile, and my instinct was stronger than I was, I ran to him and hugged him tight.

"Thank you." I said letting myself go slowly of his embrace to stare at those magical eyes that hypnotized my being. He stared back. I then felt uncomfortable again, not about his presence he made me feel safe, and I knew I was the most relaxed person near him, the thing is that I don't know what I'm feeling and it gets weird and harder to face my feelings as they grow up.

"Anytime." His voice was calm and sweet, something I don't hear in a long time. I smiled back at him.


"Hi Stefan." I approached Stefan slowly, knowing he had been hurt, with all that happened with Elena, I knew it was hard on her but also on him, on everyone of us. He was on the couch looking at the floor, I joined him.

"Hey." His voice was broken and sad.

"I know Elena is gone and all, but we should have fun, you can't stay here forever." I said poking his arm, while my wide open smile made him smile too.

"Let me guess, nothing knew about Tyler's body?" Well he knew, he always knew. Stefan could always have this understanding , his ability to read me like nobody else, he knew that if Tyler's body was still here, I would be near it not here with him, though this all Elena situation makes me feel bad about him.

"You always know." I said it remembering the last time I saw Tyler, my heart broke in that moment, I wish I could have stayed with him.

"I'm sure they will find him anyway." I smiled a little, Stefan always knew how to give me a little hope, it reminds me when I thought I was a complete monster, but Stefan was always there to tell me what to do.

The bell rings, and I almost jump of my seat. These days no one hadn't been visiting us, only Jeremy, to look for news.

"Who could it be?" I ask Stefan, we both looked surprised but also intrigued.

"Let's find out." Stefan and I rush to the door on our vampire speed. When the door opens, I see someone I'd least expected, cause lately she haven't said a word.

"Bonnie?"


Damon and I left home for about an hour, he still doesn't tell me where we are going, but feels good to be outside, for a while.

"Here we are." I look around, putting my head off the car's window. All I see is trees and more trees, and it brings me back to Mystic Falls.

"The woods? Really?" My head goes back to the car, where I stare at a smirking Damon.

"Well, you said you wanted to learn, new vamp-things." When he said this I felt a need to get out of the car, sometimes Damon could suffocate me. When I get out of car, Damon goes along with me, I observe the trees and the sky, where birds fly and sing around us, Damon joins me.

"Nature, can make us feel alive don't you think?" I smile to Damon and he smiles back to me, this time genuinely.

"And that was one of the reasons I bring you here. " Damon was leaning on the car, staring at me, like he wanted to say something more.

"What?" I say a bit confused, he then started to laugh.

"Elena I think a bird, made you a surprise on your shoulder." He laughs even more, placing even a hand to his mouth so he could prevent himself, from falling in laugh. I look at my miserable figure. My left shoulder was awful, all dirty with bird crap, I tried to clean it with the sleeve of my shirts right arm, but it didn't quite work. I look at him in disbelief, he was still laughing, then I lean my shoulder into his leather jacket, and rub it, making his jacket also dirt. He looks furious, like he wants to eat me alive.

"What? This is leather!" He yells at me, trying to clean it, but it didn't disappear at all.

"And that was my shirt." I answer him equally.

"What did you want me to do?" He is no longer leaning on his Camaro.

"Well to stop laughing for example." I gesture.

"You want to play isn't it?" He starts to coming closer with a threatening look on his face, lifting his arms up.

"No,no, Damon." When I'm screaming, I can't feel my feet on the floor anymore, Damon left me up placing me on one of his shoulders, I tried to slap him on his back, but I didn't succeed, my anger started to became joy, and fun, I was uncontrollably laughing because of my image, I looked silly.

We were heading, god knows where in the middle of the woods, when I feel like we arrive cause Damon eventually stopped walking, I can hear the sound of water, flapping on the rocks, and the smell of fresh water, made me feel peaceful. For a minute I stopped slapping Damon.

"Here." He said as he placed me on the ground. When I turn around, my mouth almost falls, at the sight of this beautiful lake, there were flowers surrounding it with the most beautiful colors, the air smelled so purely, and the sound of the nature made me feel like home.

"This is beautiful Damon." I look so surprised, I can imagine my face. I couldn't even think that Damon knew these places, I know Stefan bring me once to some identical place, but this one was even more beautiful, and I felt human again.

"Yup, one of my favorites here in Italy." His face looked also dreamy. I knew this place was important to him.

"Does it mean something to you?" I questioned him and his face changed in a minute.

"I used to come here alone, when I turned a vampire, just to feel that slightest humanity left."

That was really sad to hear, actually I think Damon's life was pretty sad, I mean Stefan told me his father never approved anything Damon did, he went to the civil war, Katherine chose Stefan somehow, I chose Stefan, and everybody kind of hates him. Finally I realized how much hurt he had been taking, I wouldn't hold on that, I know I'm strong, but Damon. Man you got to be strong enough mentally to deal with these things. The only thing that escaped from my mouth was a tiny:

"oh." We stared at each other for a moment.

"Now, we need to clean this mess. Ready to dive in the water?" He starts to smirk again, and then I realized his purpose on bringing me here.

"Are you sure, cause you never know, you can drown, I don't know just a thought occurred me." I smile widely to him, in a provocative way.

"Oh, you are threatening me Miss Elena Gilbert?" He comes closer again, and that's when I feel strong arms surrounding my waist and throwing us right into the water. Our bodies were glued, we didn't let go for a minute, even in the water when we splashed into each other, making me feel a teenager again, a human one. My laughs, his laughs, our laughs, were absolute music to my ears I felt complete again.

"Who is going to drown now?" Damon smirks to me.

"Well, I would have, but you are older than me." I say calm, and sweet pouting to him, I can feel his eyes melt to my sight. He comes closer and he places his arms around my waist once more, but now he is on my back , and I can feel his breath on my ears and it sends shivers down my spine, it makes me feel, uncontrollably, I want to do things my body can't control, but my mind wants to stop those thoughts.

"You know you can win me with those doe eyes, and when you pout…Oh Elena Gilbert, you drive me crazy." At those last words, I almost felt my knees falling into the water along with my entire body, I know I was in the fresh water but my body was at a temperature, indescribable, a heat came to every part of my body.

"Damon…" I whisper, when he starts to kiss my neck, near my ear. It feels so good, but so bad.

"Yes, Elena?" He whispers making my mind fly, his way to talk is so seductive.

"We…Damon" I grab his hands that were still on my waist and turn around to face him this time. I almost get lost into his ocean, they are my weakness.

"Even if I want to so badly, I can't, we can't." My lips are so dry craving for someone to kiss them urgently, I can see the lust on him too, and I can't control my emotions.

"I want you so badly, Elena." Damon says again almost in a whisper that makes my heart melt. I couldn't resist, I shouldn't have to resist. That's when I lean, and our lips touch again, like I waited an eternity to kiss him again, to feel like heaven again, and to feel complete again. Well it did happen again.


So... what do you think, aren't they a hot couple?! I wish they really were like this *.* please stay tunned if you want to know what's next. I still don't know what to do with Steroline but we will see.
