A\N: Thank you so much for reviewing-70 something reviews! :D (On the story it says 71, but on my page 77, crazy) For those of you that are interested, I am writing another story which is AU and it's called His Vampire Heart. If you want, take a look at it. I had promised myself "One story at a time" but I couldn't resist.

Anyway enjoy this chapter, please review. Main inspiration for Delena Scene is from the Vampire Diaries Books, The Return: Nightfall and Shadow Souls and those who read the Price of Love I once did something similar ;)

Damon's POV

Six hours of driving were exhausting, even for a vampire. I didn't even feed and thirst was taking over me, however I wanted to get to Elena as quickly as possible. Now the first job was to see which part of the town she was in-Blondie said that her mother tried to track Tyler's call to Klaus and apparently I wasn't far away from where Elena was. However, I stopped frozen in my car as I passed the woods, smelling a familiar scent. Oh my God, it couldn't be. I sniffed deeply as I vanished out of the car, and I instantly knew that that scent was Elena's blood.

Elena's POV

I knew that drowning was one of the most painful ways to die, the way water slowly suffocates you and your lungs can't take it anymore. I just wished for the pain to stop, to get the death I should've got the night of the sacrifice. I knew that it will all be over soon, because the pain was going away, and my bruised and bloody body was almost relaxing now.

Until a strong arm was pulling me away, clenching me to safety. I closed my eyes, letting the darkness in.

Damon's POV

"Elena!" I screamed as I put her on the ground, pushing at her chest. "Come on, Elena, wake up! Let me see your brown eyes again!" I kept pushing at her chest. "Elena! Wake up, come on, keep your heart beating!"

But she didn't move an inch.

"Elena I can't go on without you! Open your eyes now!" I was almost roaring now, tears streaming down my cheeks at the helpless girl in front of me, the girl that I adored. No, she couldn't die. Not when she was just a child.

"ELENA!" I growled, and then something occurred to my mind. I just had to pray to God that it would work since I wasn't human. CPR. I put my lips on hers, trying to give her the breath she desperately needed as I continued to push at her chest.

And then suddenly she was throwing up water, coughing and gasping for air.

"Oh my God, Elena, I thought I lost you," I said, not bothering to hide the tears that were on my cheeks.

She just gave me a weak smile, a smile that turned immediately to a gasp of pain. "H-h-h-hurts," She stammered. "H-h-h-hurts!"

And then the relief I had disappeared again as my gaze fell down to her stomach and saw the growing stain of color at her abdomen. Internal bleeding? How could it be? I panicked, and the first thing I did was tore open my wrist and forced the blood in her mouth, but she kept throwing it up like she was immune to it. I put my jacket around her and carried her to the nearest house, and after the woman living there was compelled to let me in, I laid Elena on the king sized bed in one of the rooms.

I decided to try and feed her my blood again, and this time it seemed to be working. Elena was half conscious as the blood entered her system, and she was pale as a sheet. She definitely had broken bones but my blood seemed to be repairing the internal damage but she was still in pain. I didn't know what I could do in that moment except wrapping her up in another blanket. Her beautiful face was still full of blood and bruises, and I immediately cleaned them the best I could. She then seemed to relax, and I knew that her pain was fading away.

"Thank you, Damon," I heard her say, and my head whipped around to see that she was now perfectly awake.

"I thought I lost you," I said as I wrapped my arms around her. "I'm so sorry for everything you've been through… I wish I had gotten here earlier! Oh, Elena, I-"

"Shh, shh," She said, reassuring me. "Everything will be okay…"

"You are so cold," I noted, "I'll fill you a warm tub, okay?"

She nodded as she shivered.

I moved to the bathroom and filled the tub with warm, soapy water and then went back to Elena. "If you need anything, tell me…"

She nodded slightly and weakly moved to the bathroom.

"No, I mean it," I said taking her hand, "If you want something, tell me, okay?" I didn't want her to refuse asking for help because of some unnecessary modesty.

She nodded again as she whispered a thank you and she continued to make her way to the bathroom.

It was no more than five minutes later when I heard a loud impact on the floor, and my hand immediately knocked violently on the door. "Elena, are you okay?"

"I f-fell," She was crying again, and I unlocked the door slowly, to find her curled up unable to move near the sink, her head missing it by just a few inches. She was very weak, and I slowly helped her up, her shirt already half unbuttoned. "Do you want me to take care of everything?" I asked her, and after a moment of hesitation she nodded her head slowly, blushing slightly.

I took off her shirt, and I realized that she was avoiding any eye contact with me at all times, her face red with embarrassment. However, I locked my eyes on her face, not looking at her body even once. I moved to her jeans and hesitated before she nodded slightly, and leaving her in her bra and underwear I put her in the warm tub, putting a warm facecloth around her wounds to sooth them. She kept staring at me as I applied shampoo to her hair, slowly massaging the roots, and for a moment I even thought I saw a tiny smile form in her lips. When I got to her arm, I hissed as I saw a small, fading bite mark in her wrist, and I gently traced it with my fingertips before bringing it to my lips and kissing it softly. As I continued to clean the wounds, she then said, "You have such beautiful eyes, Damon."

I smiled at her softly, surprised by her sudden remark, and aiming to make her smile I said: "Woah, how hard did you hit your head?"

She chuckled. "No, it's just that I knew that your eyes are amazing… but right now they are beyond that. The moonlight is practically reflecting into them."

I kissed the top of her head. "Thank you, angel of mine," With that I lifted her up from the tub and slowly dried her hair, wrapping a light pink cotton robe around her.

When we were on the bed again I got a brush and sat behind her, asking her to turn around so that I could brush her hair slowly, untangling it. Her hair was softer than usual now, and she looked like an Angel.

"All done," I said before pressing my lips against her hair again.

She smiled. "Thanks, Damon. Thanks for saving me."

"I'll always come back for you; don't ever forget that, okay?" I said, lightly caressing the top of her nose playfully.

"I know that," She said with the same smile. "But, Damon, before Klaus took me I wanted to tell you something…"

Yeah, it wasn't the first time someone interrupted a historical moment between Elena and I.

"Tell me, princess."

"I love the way you are honest with me, Damon… and how you always come back for me. You always cared, the second I met you." I nodded, eager to hear everything she has to say. "The truth is, Damon, I want to be with you. When I was with Klaus, I couldn't stop thinking and dreaming about you… I can't imagine my life without you in it."

That was all I needed to hear. In a moment, I was kissing her breathlessly, holding on to her like she was the air I needed to breathe. And she was cradling near my chest, her heart beating next to my frozen one, and I couldn't tell her how much I loved her because there were no words to describe them.

She sat on my lap, burying her face on my shoulder as I squeezed my arms around her waist planting a kiss on her forehead. "I wanted to hold you like this, Elena… you don't know for how many long."

She smiled against my neck. "You were right, Damon. I had been fighting it… It was because I was scared. Scared to admit, and scared about what it would say about me, what it would make me…"

"I know, I know," I breathed. "I know."

Elena's POV

I didn't care anymore. All I cared about that I was happy, this is the man I belong with. There was no turning back now, and as I inhaled deeply his scent, I said the three magic words.

"I love you, Damon."

He started to kiss me again and this time I kissed him back more tenderly than ever. I found myself pinned underneath him, gently but firmly as he placed kisses everywhere: My cheek, my temple, my forehead… and then he moved to my throat, blazing a trail of kisses until he reached my lips before moving to my neck and placing kisses there, up to my earlobe. I let out a laugh at the sensation since I was ticklish, and the second he realized he started both tickling and kissing me.

"God, I love you too much." He mumbled against my neck.

"I love you, too."

Damon's phone rang, interrupting our historical moment like usual.

"Don't answer it," I breathed.

"It's Blondie," Damon said, "I sent her a text when I found you… she would want to talk to you."

Damon answered with a polite Hello for once, and then the phone was passed to me and Caroline's crying voice spoke to me. She was clearly weeping and it took a lot of me to convince her that I was fine. Alaric's voice then came in, along with Jeremy's and Bonnie's and after they were all satisfied I was fine I promised to see them by tomorrow.

"So… where were we?" I smiled slyly as I turned to Damon.

Author's POV

Caroline and the rest of the team were preparing to get Michael to help them kill Klaus. Rebekah was still hurt after discovering her brother killed her mother and they were almost sure she'd help. The last time they seen Stefan was when he killed May and he was nowhere to be seen afterwards. However, Stefan wanted freedom. He wanted to be free of Klaus's compulsion and be able to get revenge for everything. He knew that he would need Katherine's help and like she had read his mind, she had called him just a few minutes earlier telling him that she has a plan to take down Klaus if Michael was on their side. However, she needed Stefan to work with the 'team' in order to work, since they needed an epic plan.

Stefan nodded slightly. He would get his revenge.

So, did you like it? Please review! Don't forget: In this story, in The Homecoming Dance there wasn't that epic plan like in the show. I probably use that as the plan in the next chapter, however depending on how I'm gonna turn this story :P
