Thank you for betaing this so quick Kitty.
Elena didn't even wait until they were up in the bedroom before she started tearing her way through his clothing.
"Maybe we should take this upstairs." He moaned as she worked his way down his chest, alternating between licking and nibbling.
"No, I want you. I can't wait." She denied, yanking his belt through the loops and dropping it to the floor along with the useless tatters of his shirt.
"No. Upstairs." He insisted.
"No, right here." She insisted pushing his jeans down freeing his erection. It rose up towards his belly button, fully erect and ready for her. "You are so ready for me." She marvelled pressing a kiss to the tip and smirking at the expression on his face. He was clearly warring with his desire to take her right now or rush them to their bedroom. She didn't give him the option, she climbed him like a tree and positioned his cock where she needed him, sinking onto his length.
"Shit..." He groaned, all traces of argument leaving immediately. He spun her around and pressed her into the door, slamming his hips into hers over and over again.
"I am so happy we're alone right now." Elena moaned. When he hit that spot inside her she shut her eyes and bit into his shoulder to stifle her sounds of pleasure. Damon jack-hammered his hips into hers at vampire speed, effectively making her see stars.
"Never make me wait this long again." She hissed, her vampire visage coming out.
"It was bad for both of us." Damon assured her. After a few more thrusts Damon came spurting inside her. He immediately pulled out, mindless in his release. He set her on the floor not seeing the mutinous, incredulous look on Elena's face.
"What?" He asked baffled by the expression on her face. Her vampire visage faded away and she glared at him furiously.
"You left me high and dry." She hissed.
"Oh... oops." He shrugged pulling his pants back up.
"You never used to be a selfish lover. I was so close, you couldn't have held on for a couple more seconds?" She asked outraged.
"Apparently not. I wanted you more than I let on I guess." He shrugged.
"Damon Salvatore you are going to fix this, and you are going to fix this now." She hissed at him.
"Nah, I think I'm going to take a shower then go to bed." He denied her. Elena scoffed, hissing at him and stalked towards the stairs not bothering to pull her clothes back on.
"I see it as revenge of sorts for continually trying to sabotage my evening." He told her as he followed her up the stairs.
"I hate you for it." She told him.
"You could always deal with it yourself, but I think you should have to suffer for a while. After all you did try to torture me all night." He shrugged.
"I hate you." She hissed standing in the bedroom doorway.
"I'm going to shower." He told her kissing her shoulder.
"If you're not careful I will take advantage of you." She warned him.
"Are you adverse to masturbation?" He asked raising his eyebrows.
"Why wouldn't I be? I have your delicious body at my full disposal." She shrugged, stalking towards him.
"Not right now you don't." He murmured enjoying the look in her eyes. He definitely wasn't going to turn her down if she attacked him. She managed to get herself between him and the bathroom and starting pushing him towards the king sized bed that dominated the space.
"You do know that I am going to take my orgasm from you right?" She asked her voice low and dangerous.
"I figured as much." He muttered dryly, enjoying this new side of Elena. He had never played around with orgasm denial with her before and he found he was enjoying it. She turned into a completely different woman when she was unsatisfied. He found himself hardening and smirked as she backed him towards the bed.
"Maybe I should withhold an orgasm from you too as revenge." She mused feeling him harden against her belly.
"I would just take care of it myself. I'm really quite good at that." He whispered.
When his knees hit the back of the mattress she shoved him down and tore his jeans from his body watching with rapt fascination as his cock rose against his belly again.
"The idea of orgasm denial is looking friendlier and friendlier all the time." Elena mused.
"There's no point, I would just deal with it myself." He warned her, clasping his hands behind his head as he watched her.
"I hate you." She told him before mounting him on the bed and taking him inside her in one fluid movement. In the next second she was bouncing furiously on him, slamming their hips together. This was not soft lovemaking, this was rough and passionate fucking. She rose off of him and turned around so her back was facing him before impaling herself on his cock again. His eyes were fixated on her ass and watching his cock disappear inside her on every thrust. She leaned forward taking him in at a different angle and causing his base to hit her clit. She screamed out a garbled stream of curse words and his name. She rolled her hips against his and hung her head back causing the tips of her hair to tickle the tops of his thighs. Moments later Elena's orgasm washed over her, making her boneless riding out the waves. Damon took advantage of the situation and flipped her over until her back hit the mattress and pounded into her over and over again eager for his release. When he finally spilled inside of her for the second time that evening, it sent her headlong into a smaller orgasm.
"Wow." Elena sighed when she came down from her orgasms.
"Mhm." Damon murmured smugly.
"That was really quite incredible." Elena said, surprise clear in her voice.
"Are you shocked?" Damon asked sitting up so he could look at her.
"I'm just shocked at how hot orgasm denial can be." Elena admitted.
"Ah yes. You so liked being tortured by me." He teased, laying back down beside her.
"No, I liked taking advantage of you after the fact" She corrected him.
"Fine. I can honestly see you enjoying something like that. You love taking advantage of me, you do it quite frequently." Damon continued to tease her.
"Okay, change of subject. What are we doing tomorrow?" Elena asked.
"There are still quite a few places we have yet to visit, so it's up to you. We can either stay in tomorrow or we can start our historical Italy tour with Rome, Venice and all the other places you wanted to see." Damon told her.
"How long are we spending in each of those places?" She asked.
"A couple days. We'll get a hotel room." Damon told her.
"Okay, I really want to see Rome. That was the place I was most excited to see." Elena admitted.
"Then tomorrow we will plan our trip to Rome and then we'll leave on Tuesday." Damon told her.
"Sounds perfect. Now let's go to sleep. You tired me out." She teased him leaning over to give him a quick kiss.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~DE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next morning Elena found Damon poring over the laptop with a glass of blood in his hand.
"Good morning. We are staying at the Gran Melia Rome Hotel because of its convenient location near the Vatican and many other places that you'd want to see. I was thinking of getting a Premium Suite, does that sound good?" Damon asked when she walked into the kitchen.
"That sounds wonderful. It's odd, I've been to more churches and whatnot on this trip while I've been a vampire than I ever did when I was human." Elena mused.
"Well these are historical and beautiful." Damon told her.
"It's just ironic." Elena admitted.
"That it is." Damon agreed taking a sip of his warmed blood. Elena grabbed herself a bag of blood from the fridge and stuck it in the microwave. She went to sit beside him at the island and watched as he scrolled through the amenities the hotel offered.
"Ooh minibar." Damon enthused.
"I knew you'd like that. I'm looking forward to the pool" Elena admitted.
"My pool is so much better." Damon scoffed.
"Yes it is, but this one is in Rome." Elena explained.
"Fine, I'll give you that one." Damon allowed.
"So what are we doing for the rest of today?" Elena asked curiously.
"Pack a couple days worth of clothes and then you can relax and have the day in you so desperately wanted. " Damon told her.
"Sounds nice." Elena sighed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~DE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Where are you heading this time?" Bella asked seeing Damon and Elena carrying overnight bags out to the car.
"Rome." Elena answered with a bright smile on her face.
"I am amazed you haven't been there yet. It is only about an hour and a half away." Bella mused.
"We were too busy with other stuff." Elena admitted.
"Well have fun, it's a beautiful city." Bella told her.
"I've always wanted to see it. The way Damon drives we will be there sooner rather than later." Elena laughed.
"Life is too short to waste on driving stupidly slow." Damon retorted.
"Sometimes the fun is in the slow drive." Elena told him.
"We have three days in Rome, and I have compiled a list of ten places we need to see. Time is of the essence, we can take the drive slow on the way home." He told Elena.
"Where are you taking Elena? I must ensure that your list is complete." Bella told Damon.
"Fine. Obviously we're going to the Coliseum, Sistine Chapel, Vatican, Pantheon, and a few other places. Those are the main ones, we're going to the Piazza and we'll probably go see the Opera while we're there. It's an experience Elena should have." Damon listed.
"Your list is fine. Have a good trip." Bella decided. Th
"We will." Damon told her.
"What hotel are you staying in?" Bella asked, having a very high knowledge about Rome.
"Gran Melia Rome." Damon told her. Bella nodded her approval and Damon opened Elena's car door so she could slip in.
"Would you like me to clean the house while you're gone?" Bella asked.
"Nope, we did it before we left." Damon told her. Bella nodded and Damon walked around to his side of the car and climbing in behind the wheel. Elena waved goodbye to Bella as Damon peeled out of the driveway and hit the road.
They talked amiably as Damon made the normally hour and forty minute drive in forty minutes due to his ability to drive at WAY above the posted speed limit and being able to compel his way out of speeding tickets.
"So what are we doing first?" Elena asked.
"The Roman Forum tour takes about two hours if you want to do that? Damon asked.
"What is the Roman Forum?" Elena asked.
"It's a historical place. One of the ruins is Julius Caesar's cremation altar." Damon told her, having not been there for years.
"Wow. Okay lets go that. Then we can go to our hotel." Elena told him.
"Sounds good. Tomorrow we'll do the Vatican and Sistine Chapel since it's walking distance from our hotel." Damon told her, taking a left and parking outside a very rundown area.
"This is the Roman Forum." Damon showed Elena grabbing her camera from the console and taking her hand. They signed up for the tour and joined the other people waiting for the guide. When the tour guide appeared he led them through the ruins, illustrating the struggle that went on in that time. Elena got pictures standing beside the cremation altar of Julius Caesar, and several other places. She listened to everything the guide had to say and filed it away for further examination. There was so much in the world that Elena had never seen and he wanted to make sure she saw it all. It was hot outside but the heat didn't really affect the two vampires. The people surrounding them were huffing and puffing trying to keep breath as they guzzled from water bottles. When the tour was finished Damon walked Elena back to the car.
"That was so amazing. I am so going to have to make an album with all the pictures from this trip when we go back to Mystic Falls." Elena enthused.
"That would be amazing. I think we should take a trip like this every year. Next year maybe we can go to Greece for a month." Damon suggested.
"That would be amazing. A new country for a month once a year." Elena sighed happily, loving the idea.
"Let's go check into our hotel and get cleaned up. Then we can find somewhere for lunch." Damon suggested.
"Sounds good. Is there a restaurant in our hotel?" Elena asked.
"Yeah. We can have lunch there and then do something else." Damon suggested.
"What should we do?" Elena asked.
"We can relax in the hotel room for a few hours, then I want to show you the Trevi Fountain. It's beautiful. We can have
some ice cream and sit there for a while." Damon told her.
"That sounds amazing. I love ice cream." Elena breathed. He grinned at her and drove to the hotel. Elena marvelled at the exterior of the hotel when they pulled up. Damon handed the keys to the valet as he grabbed their overnight bags and walked in.
"Good morning sir. What can I do for you?" The concierge asked.
"We have a reservation under Salvatore." Damon told him.
"Ah yes, you booked the Premium Suite. Just sign this and we are ready to go." He told Damon slipping the credit card receipt over to him. Damon signed it with a flourish of his hand and got the key from the concierge.
"Enjoy your stay with us sir." The concierge as they walked to the elevator and headed to the fourth floor.
Damon unlocked the door to their room and let Elena in first.
"It's beautiful." Elena murmured as she walked in. She walked into the bedroom area and saw the bed. "Oh my Gosh." She whispered seeing the plush bed.
"It's not as nice as my house but it's not bad. I wasn't going for the best this time, we're only here for three days." Damon told her.
"It is probably the nicest hotel I've ever stayed in." Elena argued.
"I never go below five stars. I chose it predominantly for the location. Very convenient." Damon told her.
"I'm going to show, I feel icky." She told him walking into the bathroom. He let her go as he appraised the room. He looked out the window and stepped onto the balcony knowing Elena would love the view. He grabbed her camera from the bag and snapped pictures of the hotel room and the view from the balcony knowing she'd want them. It saved them both some time. He heard the shower running and resisted the urge to join her. If they wanted to get out of the room and get lunch then they'd have to get going. She stepped out of the shower and walked into the room wearing one of the complimentary terry cloth robes with a towel in her hair.
"Your turn." She told him digging through her bag of clothes for something that wasn't covered in ruin dust. She was relieved she brought extra clothes at Damon's insistence. Damon was only in the shower for five minutes when he came out dressed in jeans and a shirt, while running a towel through his artfully messy hair.
"So lunch?" He asked. She nodded her head and picked up a room key, taking his hand and leading him down to the restaurant.
They got seated immediately and talked amiably while waiting for their wine. Elena had started enjoying wine more on their trip. It was something that she was never very fond of before Italy. When their meals arrived they started eating and the conversation died down. After paying the check they went back up to their room and reclined on the bed with the TV on for a few hours.
"Lying low like this is nice every once in a while." Elena whispered lying beside Damon on the king sized bed. Their arms were touching but neither were taking it any further at the moment.
"It is nice just relaxing." Damon agreed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~DE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After dinner Damon and Elena walked down the winding alleyways until they came to the Trevi Fountain. It was overwhelming to say the least after walking through the narrow alleyways and coming to the massive fountain.
"Rumour has it if you throw a coin over your shoulder into the fountain, it guarantees your return to Rome." Damon whispered in her ear.
"Really?" Elena asked.
"Yeah, although I could guarantee it just as well." He shrugged.
"Can never guarantee it too much. Do you have a coin?" She asked hopefully. He dug through his pockets producing a coin and pressing it into her hand. She turned so her back was to the fountain and tossed the coin over her shoulder. She could the telltale plop when the coin hit the water and smiled.
"I guess we're coming back here again." She smiled.
"I guess we are." He smiled back at her, leaning down and kissing her softly.
"This place is remarkable. I've never seen anything like this before." Elena marvelled at the ancient fountain.
"I wish I could have seen it when it was brand new. But not even I was born when this was built." Damon told her.
"Do you want to grab some ice cream?" Elena asked lacing her fingers through his and squeezing softly.
"Yeah. Go grab that bench there, I'll grab some ice cream." He suggested. She reached onto her tip toes and kissed him quickly before doing as he said and taking a seat on the bench directly across from the fountain. Damon returned a couple minutes later with two dishes of ice cream.
"What kind do you want? I have pistachio or stracciatella?" He asked.
"What the hell is stracciatella?" Elena asked.
"Chocolate chip." He answered shrugging.
"I want them both." She whined unable to choose just one.
"Well then let's share both." He offered. Her face lit up and she kissed him quickly before taking a bite of the pistachio ice cream. After she swallowed the pistachio she took a bite of the chocolate chip and moaned.
"So good." Elena sighed taking another bite. Once the ice cream was all gone Elena laid her head on Damon's shoulder and took his hand in his.
"It's so beautiful here at night. I can't wait until tomorrow. Rome is most definitely my favourite place we've visited so far." Elena admitted.
"Tomorrow you're going to see the Vatican." Damon reminded her.
"I'm so excited." Elena whispered tilting her chin up so she could kiss him sweetly.
