Damon woke up the next morning to see Elena smiling in her sleep. She had her hand resting on his chest while her head was resting on his shoulder.
When Damon went to rub his eyes, he felt Elena stir. "mmmm... good morning" Elena said sleepily.
"morning" Damon said kissing her forehead then her lips when she moved her head up.
Damon's phone rang and he sighed and reached over to see who it was. The caller ID said Stefan. He set it back down and let it ring.
Then he wrapped his arms around Elena again. "who was it?"
Damon sighed "Stefan" he said rubbing her back.
His phone rang again and Damon's smile went to a frown. He rolled his eyes and groaned to see who it was and sure enough it was Stefan. He ignored it again and turned back to Elena.
"your just gonna let it keep ringing" Elena said laughing.
"yes, because most likely he will bring up some excuse as to why you chose me over him." Damon smirked.
"he will just have to get over it. I chose you for a reason. He was trying to fix me the whole time I was a vampire. You accepted me either way." Elena said reaching her hand up to cup his face and bring it closer to her so she could kiss him.
"that and because you challenge me. You make me laugh, you were there for me. You protected me, you consume me."
Damon smiled and brushed her hair out of her face "I love you, Elena"
"I love you to, Damon"
Damon leaned in to kiss her. He deepened the kiss and she rolled onto her back pulling him on top of her. He kissed down her neck and Elena moaned arching her back. Damon went to slide into her when he heard someone scream his name.
He groaned and rested his forehead on his shoulder making her giggle. He groaned louder rolling off of her.
Someone was banging on the door "Damon!"
Damon sighed frustratingly. Stefan had interrupted him and Elena.
"Damon, I know your awake. Open the door, or I will" Stefan said.
Elena quickly put on her bra and panties and grabbed Damon's shirt putting it on. She jumped back in bed and pulled the covers over he lower half.
Damon started to laugh when his bedroom door opened. He turned and looked at it "can I help you?"
Stefan walked towards Damon's closet and threw clothes at the edge of his bed. Damon lifted his head up off the pillow to look at them then put his hands on his pillow so he could rest his head on them. "Stef, what are you doing?"
"get up! Get dressed, were having a meeting downstairs" Stefan said standing right next to his bed.
"yep, not interested" Damon said closing his eyes.
Stefan growled and his the bed "this isn't funny Damon! Both of you get dressed and come downstairs now!" Elena flinched and had fear all over her face.
Stefan left his room slamming the door shut. Damon looked at Elena and noticed she was scared. "hey, come here" he said pulling her closer.
"whats his problem?" Elena said still shaking.
Damon rubbed her arm and sighed "either the squirrel and bunny population has completely died, or he isn't getting any"
Elena rolled her eyes at his statement. "if this meeting has anything to do with me choosing you, Im going straight upstairs." Elena said getting out of bed and pulling a pair of Damon's boxers out of his drawer.
"hmmm, easier access" Damon smirked causing Elena to roll her eyes at him "come on, lets go downstairs" Elena said pulling him out of bed.
Damon groaned but got out of bed. He put on his boxers and jeans that Elena had yelled at him to take off last night and pulled a button up shirt out of his closet.
When he was dressed they walked downstairs to see Stefan, Caroline, and Bonnie sitting in the living room.
"now, what was so important that you had to disturb us" Damon asked sitting down on the couch pulling Elena next to him
Caroline sighed "we found some information about human/vampire sire bonds"
Elena rolled her and got out of Damon's embrace and walked towards the stairs but stopped and turned around "you know, I honestly can't believe that your still getting on our cases about this"
"Elena-" Stefan began.
"NO! I don't care what you have to say, Stefan! Im done listening to all of you! If you are really my friend, you will accept the fact that I chose Damon!"
"Elena, Im okay with your decision as long as your happy. Im just here to make sure things don't get out of hand"
"Elena, we all know your still in love with-"
"Caroline! Why would I choose a guy who couldn't accept me as a vampire? Damon did! He still would! He consumes me, makes me happy, I haven't been this happy in my entire life!"
"Elena, it just doesn't make any sense, why you chose him over me. You chose me before you became a vampire" Stefan said.
"Stefan, shut up! I can't deal with you two right now" Elena was bright red. She went to walk upstairs but stopped and turned around to face Stefan "and by the way, Damon is better in bed than you" Elena said and stomped away.
Damon's eyes widened at her comment "well, this has been fun, but I have better things to do then hear you obsess over mine and Elena's relationship" Damon got up and followed Elena leaving everyone else stunned.
...
Damon opened his bedroom door to see Elena laying on his bed with her arms crossed staring at the ceiling.
He shut his door and got undressed to his boxers and laid next to her. He gently rubbed her arm "its okay"
"This has gotten to the point where I can't stand them"
Damon pulled her closer "hey, no one and nothing will ever come between us. I won't let it happen. I promise you" Damon kissed her.
Elena nodded and snuggled closer to him. She knew he wouldn't. She knew their love for each other was stronger than anything else. They would be together, possibly forever.
