Klaus; that's an odd name? Slowly, the man releases my hand and I quickly put it back to my side. The man's kiss sent tingles down my spine. I glance over to Damon to see he wasn't looking at us, but at the opposite side of the room. He looked … frustrated.
"I'm Elena," I say cautiously. I wasn't too sure what I was supposed to say? Was Klaus like Damon? He surely has that dangerous look to him. I had to admit, Klaus is a very good looking man. If I didn't know any better, I would have thought he was an angel!
A chill runs through my body as Klaus gives me a devious smile. It was one of those sexy, dangerous smiles you see when someone is up to no good; very close to a wicked grin.
"Are you a friend of Damon's?" Klaus asks while turning his gaze over to Damon. I open my mouth to say something, but was interrupted.
"No she's not; she's no one. Elena, it's time for you to go," Damon says quickly while pushing me towards the door. I have no choice but to follow Damon to the door, as he had my arm in a bone crushing grip. I quickly glance backwards to see Klaus still in the same spot, watching after us.
"You're hurting me!" I gasp while looking at Damon. Immediately, he loosens his grip and practically shoves me out the door. I turn around and watch in shock as Damon slams the door in my face. I couldn't help but to just stand there in shock; I was trying to recap what just happened.
Damon had a brother? Klaus must be a vampire also, it only made sense. Was that why Damon had disappeared all of sudden? It didn't look like Damon and Klaus were very close. Damon looked … almost as if he were afraid of Klaus; or afraid of me meeting him. Did that make Klaus dangerous? Or maybe Damon doesn't want anything to do with me?
After standing there for almost a whole minute, I make my way towards my car. I couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed; and I wasn't too sure why? Today didn't go exactly what I had expected; but what was it that I was expecting? And why was I having this strange … attraction for Damon? I couldn't feel anything for him; and I sure as hell couldn't give in and stay with him willingly! Even if I did want to, it wouldn't matter as apparently he had no interest in me.
It doesn't take long before I'm in my car, driving back to my house. It was pretty dark considering it was only four o'clock in the evening. Earlier when Klaus had asked if I was Damon's friend, Damon had told Klaus, right in front of me, that I was no one! It actually stung to hear those words come out of his mouth; but I guess it was for the best. I couldn't possibly feel anything for him! It was an appalling thought!
It takes me around 10-15 minutes before I arrive back at my house. I look around to see Stefan wasn't anywhere to be seen. He probably had already come and gone. Last thing I felt like doing was dealing with Stefan.
I'm surprised to find the house empty; usually Aunt Jenna would have a home-made meal out on the table and Jeremy would be watching TV. But today the house was dark. I find a note posted on the fridge by Aunt Jenna, explaining that both she and Jeremy were at football game, and they wouldn't be coming home until late. Jenna had left some money on the counter for me to order in pizza. It wasn't until now, did I realize how hungry I actually was.
After ordering myself a small pepperoni pizza, I make my way upstairs. I wasn't too sure what I was supposed to do now? Would I see Damon or Klaus again? Klaus didn't seem too bad; he just gave me the chills. From what I managed to eavesdrop earlier, it seemed as if Klaus was leaving town tonight. I couldn't help but wonder if Damon was going to leave with him?
I lay down in my bed, fully intending to take a small nap before the pizza man arrived; but sleep did not come. Letting out a loud sigh, I decide that I may as well take a small shower. There wasn't much else to do.
I take in a deep breath as I turn the water onto hot. Once the water had warmed, I step into the shower and let my muscles relax. The shower was a good idea. I always find that hot showers help when I'm stressed out; that and drawing. I didn't really want to draw at the moment because I knew I would end up drawing Damon, or perhaps even Klaus.
Once I'm finished the shower, I turn the water off and reach for my towel. Wrapping the towel around my body, I make my way into my room. The pizza should hopefully be here soon.
I let out a loud gasp when I enter my room. There was a man sitting on the edge of my bed. It takes me less than a second to realize that the man was Damon. Slowly, he looks up and gives me a grin. It was only then did I realize I was practically naked.
"What are you doing here?" I ask once I managed to catch my breath. It takes me a moment for my heart beat to calm down. Biting the tip of my tongue, I wrap the towel around my body tighter. I didn't want to risk it falling down. From now on, I was bringing my clothing into the bathroom with me.
"I came to apologize," Damon says, the grin not leaving his face. I couldn't help but feel very exposed; almost as if I were fully naked. The way his eyes scanned my body, it was almost as if he were undressing me with his eyes.
"You … apologize?" I ask. Damon didn't strike me as the kind of person who would apologize. Even though I knew I should be frightened, I actually felt … excited. Damn it! Taking in a deep breath, I remind myself that I couldn't feel this way. It wasn't right! I mean … he's a vampire for God Sake!
Slowly his eyes trail upwards so they met my eyes. He looked … tired; almost like he hadn't slept in a few days. Do vampires even sleep?
"Yeah, about my brother, Klaus; he can be quite a handful," Damon sighs while standing up. I could feel blood rushing through my body with excitement. I knew that I should go put something on.
"Just let me get changed," I murmur silently while walking to my closet. I could hear him give a faint snicker.
"No, it's fine, really; I wouldn't dream of it," he purrs. I just give Damon a dirty glare before grabbing a T-shirt and a pair of shorts.
"Right … well I'll just be a few minutes," I mumble before heading back into the washroom. I close and the lock the bathroom door behind me. I didn't get it? First he disappears for a whole week and now he's back to his flirtatious self? I no longer felt that Damon was a threat; which was weird considering he's a vampire. But I knew that I still had to be careful around him. Usually I would probably be trying to convince him to leave my house, but I needed to get some answers about why he left all of a sudden. I also wanted to know if Klaus was a threat or not.
After changing into my clothing and brushing out my hair, I make my way back into my room. Damon was still sitting on my bed … and he was reading a book? It takes me a few seconds to realize it was my diary!
Storming in, I yank my diary out of his hands and give him a glare. Damon just lets out a chuckle. Letting out a huff, I place my diary on my desk.
"So you think I'm charming, witty, and handsome?" Damon asks while raising an eyebrow. There was a huge grin on his face. I could feel my cheeks start to turn red. It only took a few seconds before I realized that it was a trick question.
"I never wrote anything about you in my diary," I say while tilting my head to the side. Damon just shrugs his shoulders. I forgot how devious Damon could be.
"Is Klaus a vampire?" I ask after a few moments of silence.
"Yup," Damon says while popping the P. I watch as he stands up and makes his way over to my drawers. It wasn't until he was holding one of my lacy bras, did I realize why he went over there.
Rolling my eyes, I march over, snatch the bra from his hand and place it back into my drawer. Damon gives me a grin while I shut my cupboard.
"You seemed … upset when I met him? Why was that?" I ask. I watch as Damon walks to the other side of the room and pulls out my sketch book from behind my computer.
"Because Klaus isn't someone you really want to meet," He sighs while going through all of my drawings. Letting out an irritated sigh, I grab the sketch book from him and put it back. Well it looked as if I were going to have to find new hiding places for all my stuff.
"Should I be … worried?" I ask while crossing my arms. I wasn't too sure what I was supposed to be thinking right now.
"He should have left town tonight so I doubt you have to worry," Damon replies back while shrugging his shoulders. I watch as Damon walks halfway across the room and stops. I hold my breath as he turns around. Any amusement on his face has disappeared, replaced with a dead, serious look; it scared me.
"Elena, if you see him anywhere, you have to inform me right away; do you understand?" Damon asks while taking a step towards me. Biting my bottom lip, I slowly nod my head. His serious face was replaced with a grin.
"Good," Damon says while taking a step closer to me. I knew what was going to happen if I didn't move. Quickly, I step to the right instead of backwards.
"Alright, well you've apologized, now you can leave," I offer while motioning my head towards the door. Damon gives me a grin.
"I don't want to leave; I rather stay here with you," Damon purrs while walking towards my direction. It left me with no choice but to back up against my bed.
"Why? I thought I was no one," I say sarcastically. I regret my words the minute they come out. I watch in panic as he tilts his head to the side.
"You're … jealous?" Damon states with an amused tone. Shit! What was I supposed to say now?
"No-," I start but was interrupted.
"Oh yes you are! Your face scream's jealousy," Damon says while taking another step closer to me.
"I don't know what you're talking about," I sigh while placing my hands on my hips. Dammit! Me and my big mouth!
"Ohh I think you do," Damon grins. I let out a loud gasp as he practically presses his body up against mine. His body was quite warm considering he's a vampire. Electric bolts fly through my body when he rests his hands on my waist, holding me close to him. Oh God, I feel like I'm going to faint! Why do I have to attract all the bad boys?
"Stop," I try to say, but it only comes out in a hushed whisper. I hold my breath as he leans in, but instead of kissing me, his lips go right beside my ear. The only sound I could hear was my heart pounding.
"Do you really want me to stop?" Damon whispers into my ear, his voice in a low, sexy tone. I was surprised that my legs weren't shaking.
"Yes," I whisper back automatically. It was an easy answer; but was it truly what I wanted?
"Then stop me," He challenges while pulling his face away so he could look at me. I give him a confused stare.
"What do you mean?"
"Push me away, and I'll leave," He says. A spark of danger danced through his eyes. Alright, simple enough; just push him away! But I found that I couldn't; I couldn't find the strength to push him away. I didn't want to push him away.
"If you really want me to leave then stop me from doing this," he dares while placing a light kiss on the nape of my neck. I could feel a grin perch of his face when he feels my body tense up.
"Or this," he whispers while placing another soft kiss on the edge of my jaw. My eyes start to drift close, allowing my body to relax in his hold. Why wasn't I stopping this? Why didn't I want to stop this?
"Even this," his voice trails off as he places another gentle kiss on my cheek. God, he's such a tease! I knew where the next kiss was going to be placed; and I knew that I wasn't going to do anything about it.
"And you certainly should stop me from doing this," he mumbles. Slowly I part my lips, waiting for the kiss. I gasp as I feel his lips brush against mine.
DING-DONG
My eyes fly open to see Damon has disappeared. What had just happened? Did I really just allow him to do all that? I was left standing there trying to catch my breath. What was wrong with me?
DING-DONG
"I'm coming!" I yell downstairs. Grabbing the money of the counter, I open the door and accept the pizza. I no longer felt hungry though; I felt confused. Why was I feeling this way? It just didn't make any sense.
Sorry guys this took a bit longer :P Don't stay mad at me, please?
My inspiration is slowly dying; I blame it on all the sucky Delena moments that we've been receiving on TV :( anyways, hope this chapter didn't suck! It's just soooo much harder to write bad Damon then it was in my other story.
Where did many of you go? Why do I keep losing you ? Please come back, please! My inspiration will be dead without all your beautiful reviews!
I almost got ran over by a car today XP (this is the 3rd time since December this car has almost ran me over!) Still trying to figure out the licence plate number, I'm not the first person they almost ran over, Just some drunken teenagers … sigh ….
Make my day by just leaving a small review, please :D
