Another reeeaaally short chapter. Sorry. It's just sometimes cute stuff can be said is only a few hundred words. So, hope you enjoy anyway.
Elena awoke to the feel of Damon's mouth on her stomach. The long shirt she'd been wearing had ridden up during the night, exposing some of the sensitive flesh of her belly.
"Morning," Damon said, looking up when he felt her stir.
"Hey," Elena yawned, stretching.
Damon crawled up to the head of the bed where Elena's head was, and she automatically moved so that it was resting on his shoulder.
She drifted in and out of consciousness for a while, dreaming about care-free life.
When she finally decided to get out of bed, it was only because her stomach was gurgling in a painful way, telling both her and Damon how hungry it was.
Damon chuckled at the sound.
"I'll order room service and we can eat in bed. How does that sound?" He asked.
"That sounds perfect," Elena sighed happily.
Damon picked up the phone on the night table and called. Elena was too tired to listen to what he was saying, but she was sure that whatever it was would be good.
A few minutes later, there was a knock on the door. Damon answered it and returned with a cart piled high with different fruits and two plates of crepes.
He took one of the plates and placed it on her lap.
"Here you go," He said, giving her one of the plates of various fruits so that she could add them to her crepes if she wanted to.
He grabbed a second plate of crepes and fruit and carried them around to his side of the bed.
They ate their breakfasts peacefully, exchanging lighthearted conversation and pointedly steering clear of anything related to Mystic Falls.
There was a time to worry about life back home, and that time took up most of their lives. They knew that anything that had to do with that stuff would probably lead to disagreeing and fighting.
But now, they were on break. Their problems would still be there when they got back. This week was all about making sure they had great times to look back upon, when everything back home felt like it was going wrong.
In the direst of situations, no matter what happened when they got back, Damon knew he could look back on these days as some of the best times of his life.
Yes, there was a time to worry about life at home. But that time wasn't now.
