CHAPTER 13
BELLA POV
Jake hasn't called me back yet and I was . I knew that conversation will end up in us arguing again. He could be as stubborn as me.
I could not help but worry for the people in Forks and the reservation. I wanted to do something but I wasn't sure what. Stefan is right i need to think this through first. Once Victoria realized the Cullens don't care she would leave me be right? Oh who am I kidding she is probably looking for me right now. The thought of her in my house gave me the chills. I hated that cold ones could get into your home so easily. I wonder if Damon would know a solution or Bonnie would.
I haven't spoken to Damon either. I knew we would argue and we won't see eye to eye with this either. I decided I would stay away from Forks until Jake would call with an update. If Victoria left everyone would be safe and I would stay here.
School wasn't very eventful. I hung out with Elena and her friends at lunch and i would go home straight after school. I felt bad for my friends ,but I didn't want to be around people. Unfortunately for me today it was a Saturday and it was my birthday. Charlie gave me a present this morning. He knows I don't like my birthday and getting things but he still does it. Not that I am not greatful. I just don't want people spending money on me. The rest of the day I sat in a chair on my balcony reading Romeo and Juliet.
"You are seriously reading that book again." I looked up from my book Damon was standing in front of me.
"It is a good book. One of my favourites." I defended myself
"oh please that book sucks." He smirked.
"Screw you Damon." I went back to reading if he can only say bad things about it, I will just ignore him.
"I would love to Sweet cheeks." He whispered in my ear. I jumped and blushed not expecting him to be so close all of a sudden.
I sighed. "What do you want Damon?"
"I wanted to tell you to be ready at 9 pm. I promised you a night out." His signature smirk on his face. God I forgot about that. I don't know if it would be a great idea. I think Damon's way of a party is different then mine. Well actually I normally don't party at all. What should I tell Charlie. "you are not getting out of it! We both could use a night of fun."
I almost growled at him. He was so bossy. I rolled my eyes. "Fine."
"See you tonight." And with that he was gone again. Ugh…Vampires are frustrating! Always bossy and always showing up and be gone in a second and a front door doesn't excist in their vocabulary or world.
I got back to my book until dinner. Charlie wasn't home because he had a night shift. He apologized 100 times that he wasn't there on my birthday. I didn't care about it. It's just a normal day. I texted him that I would sleep at a friends house and he wished me a fun night. I hoped Damon would take me out of Mystic Falls if Charlie will see us he will be livid. I got a frozen pizza out of the freezer and put it in the oven when it warmed up. After I took a quick shower and got ready for the night of 'fun' with Damon. I was getting nervous what would he have in mind? I didn't have a lot of time to think. There was a knock on the front door. I ran down the stairs and opened it. Damon stood there leaning against the door frame.
"So you do know how to use the front door and knock." I teased.
"of course I do, but it is so dull. Surprising you is more fun." He looked handsome as always. His eyes shining with excitement. "ready to have the night of your life, birthday girl" I froze and looked wide eyed at him. "what? You think i forgot?"
"I hoped you didn't know. I should have known." I glared at him. He took my hand a pulled me to his car and almost shoved me in it. Was he scared I was going to run?
"Don't worry I don't have a present for you I also remember how you dislike those." He started the car and drove out of Mystic Falls
"where are we going?"
"To a city not far from here. More fun then boring old Mystic Falls."
I wanted to reply but my phone rang. Fucking Jake. I didn't want to pick up. But I knew he wasn't calling to catch up. Why did he have to call now?
"Hey Bells, can you talk for a moment?" He asked.
"otherwise I would not have picked up Jake. What is wrong?"
"why would anything be wrong?" He sounded too innocent.
"spill it Jake!" he sighed
"sometimes I hate it that you know me so well. Harry died."
"What! How?" poor Harry and his family they didn't deserve this.
"He got a heart attack because of that stupid leech. My dad will call Charlie tomorrow. The funeral will be in a couple days. Please don't come to it. She probably hopes she can lure you out. We will watch and protect Charlie." My heart stopped a second. "We almost had her and then she jumped into the sea. We haven't seen her in a couple of days. Please be careful!"
"Thanks for letting me know Jake. Did anyone else get hurt?"
"No. Bells I'll come to Mystic Falls after the funeral. I can keep you safe."
"No! You stay right where you are. You need to finish school and protect everyone there. I don't want you to put your life on hold for me."
"Bella I really don't mind. I would do it if it means you stay safe."
"Jake I told you I am safe. Nothing will happen to me. It's not up for discussion."
"Bella Please!" he whined
"No. Bye Jake" I hang up I didn't want to argue with him. I put my phone on silence mode. He will probably call back.
"seems like you have a love sick puppy."
"No he is just worried and I don't see him like that." I don't know why i added the last part. Damon would not care if i would like Jake.
"I think you dont want to see it."
"Damon!"
"Don't Damon me! I am just stating the facts." He smirked but it changed to a frown. "We need to keep our eyes open for that sparkly Bitch, but tonight is about having fun."
"What if she finds me?" I was scared of Victoria but I tried not to show it although this question clearly stated I was. Damon pulled the car over and looked at me.
"I won't let anything happen to you mi Cara." He looked sincere. "I will rip that wanna be vampire in pieces and burn her so she will be gone forever. Hell! we can even dance around the fire like Indians to celebrate. "
I had to laugh about the last statement it sounded crazy. He smiled and began to drive again. We didn't talk much but I didn't mind it gave me time to think and it wasn't an awkward silence.
I knew it would be a matter or time before she would find me. I guess a night of having fun with Damon wasn't that bad. Who knows maybe I will be dead tomorrow. I guess I don't need to go to Forks if Victoria isn't there. I was so deep in thought that I didn't realize Damon parked the car and got to my side. He opened my door and waved his hand in front of my face.
"Earth to Isa." He said playfully. "what is going on in that pretty head of yours?"
I grimaced it was something Edward would say. But Damon wasn't Edward. They were complete opposites.
"wouldn't you like to know." I smiled.
"Are you flirting with me Miss Swan! I am shocked" he joked as he put a hand over his heart. I blushed was I flirting? He helped me out of the car. Who would have thought, Damon didn't seem like a guy who would normally do that. Damon put a hand on my back and guided me towards a bar.
"Let's drink something here and then go to the club." I nodded and he pushed me along the side walk.
"one problem I am not 21!"
"Don't worry about that. Well actually you are.. I think" he looked deep in thought. " I will just compel the bar staff. No big deal"
We entered the bar and sat down at a table. It didn't took the staff long to send someone to get our order. Damon ordered 2 bourbon.
"Damon I am not sure I like Bourbon!"
"I am sure you like it. You just need to get used to it." I wasn't sure if he was right but it was worth the try I guess. Not long after the waiter brought over our drinks.
"Cheers" he said. " to a wickedly fun night and birthday!"
I raised my glass to him and sniffed the drink. God this has a lot of alcohol in it. I took a sip of the bourbon and started coughing. It burned in my throat. The taste wasn't that bad. I knew I tasted it before. Damon's laugher filled the bar.
"Just like the first time we drank Bourbon."
"haha very funny." I said with a smile on my face. After we finished our drinks Damon walked me towards the pool tables. He went to get drink for us while I put the balls in place. Of course he brought me another Bourbon. Does he want to get me drunk?
I sucked at playing pool every ball I hit went a different way then I wanted it to go. It was fun though after the second round we got our jackets and went to the club.
I never been to one and it looked massive. The dance floor was packed with people dancing and having fun. A DJ was on a stage at the other end of the room I hope Damon didn't expect me to dance. Oh who am I kidding of course he does. I knew he wouldn't stop until I danced, one won't be enough.
He got us drinks again and when I said next round I wanted a coke he said it would not happen and that I should let go even if it is for one night. I needed to live a little he said.
We sat in a booth on the second floor. Our seats looking out over the dance floor. We talked about my time in Forks and his time as a vampire. It suited him that is for sure, although he didn't want it in the first place he learned how do deal with it. I truely wished I could remember our past. He didn't talk about it and I didn't want to start about it now. I wanted to remember on my own. The topic of Victoria was also taboo ever since we entered the bar.
After our first drink Damon pulled me to the dance floor. I wasn't sure what to do. The music was fast and I would definitely break his toes or will end up flat on my face and the alcohol is making me dizzy. Damon went to stand behind me and put his hand on my hips and started to sway them. Him moving a long to the music. It made my heart beat faster.
"come on Isa let's show everyone how sexy you are."
"sexy.." I muttered "You most be joking I probably look like someone who can't dance. That isn't sexy at all!" I huffed.
"You never have seen yourself clearly have you." He whispered in my ear.
"Not the first time someone told me."
"the more reason for you to believe it then. You are hot deal with it."
"You vampires are delusional!"
"the only one who is delusional is you and certainly some guys here would love to have you as well. Some are quite jealous of me you see." He turned me around so I was facing Him, still holding me at the small of my back. I had to say he is a good dancer. I kind of knew that already. I won't tell him it would only go to his head and his ego is big enough. It was fun dancing and drinking with Damon. I haven't felt so care free in weeks, maybe months.
After two songs we got drinks again. I protested since I already felt tipsy and didn't want to get drunk. Of course Damon thought I shouldn't care. So i didn't for once and it felt good not to care about a thing. I will probably have a massive hang over tomorrow and will curse myself.
We danced for hours and my feet were screaming at me. After 2 more drinks I didn't give a damn. I never thought dancing could be this fun! The dance floor was busier then it was before. The DJ probably thought it was a good time for a slow song. The previous ones we used to rest. Well for me.
"After this song we need to go back." I pouted when he said that. I didn't want to go home. "Don't worry we can always have an after party if your up for it when we are home."
He pulled me close to him, his arms around me. I put my head on his chest and closed my eyes. Swaying on the music following Damon's lead. It almost felt like in my memory when we danced at the founders day party. It felt so right then. I had butterflies in my stomach as I did now. I guess a witch messing with your head didn't erase my feeling towards people and I just realized what those feelings where towards Damon. I wish i remembered if he felt the same. I raised my head from his chest to look in those blue eyes. I gave him a small smile. He smiled too, he looked happier than I have seen him so far after our reunion. I don't know why but I wanted to kiss him. It is probably because of the alcohol. It didn't give me enough courage to do it.
I was official drunk and couldnt walk in a straight line. The only problem now is where I should sleep. Charlie thought I slept at Bonnie's house or Elena I can't remember.
"Damon where am I going to sleep?" I slurred when we sat in the car.
"with me of course" he said smugly.
"what?"
"Come on Isa, I can't be that aweful to share a bed with." He pretended to be hurt. Jerk..
"Okay but on one condition! No funny business!"
"God Isa it is called sex!" he rolled his eyes. "I promise I won't do anything you don't want to. I can actually sleep in a bed and do nothing. Although with a beauty like yourself in the same bed it would be hard to resist."
"See delusional and I know it is called sex. I wasn't born under a rock" I rolled my eyes at him also.
Within 20 minutes we where at the boarding house. Damon drove as a maniac but Edward did too. It is probably a vampire thing. When we walked in the house it was quiete.
"It seems Steffie is sleeping over at Elena's house." Damon said. "Are you tired or would you like to have a small party here."
I was tired but I didn't care. The car ride sobered me up just a bit. "I am fine with both."
"Party it is." He put on some music, got us a drink and grabbed my hand and pulled me towards him. He put the drink in my other hand. His arms around my waist and pushing me against him, with a glass of Bourbon in one hand. I felt butterflies in my stomach again and blushed a bit. I took a large sip.
DAMON POV
I have got to say drunk Isa is fun! I never seen her this drunk before and I enjoyed it immensely. This era was much more fun than when we grew up. It was all so fucking formal back then. Now I could just let my hands roam a bit over her body while we danced. When she was really drunk she even began to rub her ass against me. She was sexy and turning me on. I loved this version of Isa. I pushed the memories of her far away when i thought she was dead and focused on finding Kathrine. If i knew she was hidden away somewhere I would have searched everywhere and done everything to get her back. I can't change it now. I looked down at her. I told her we would go home after this song. She didn't want to go home. Her pout wanted me to kiss her senseless. We could always continue at home. I would have her all to myself. No prying eyes of jealous guys. Some are practical droling when they look at her and she is absolutely oblivious to it. She needed more confidence.
I wanted to laugh when she walked to the car if i hadn't helped her she would've walked 3 times as much. The car ride home sobered her up a bit. When we arrived at the boarding house I asked her what she wanted to do. Since she was fine with both i put some music on grabbed a drink and took her in my arms again.
When she finished her Bourbon she let loose even more. With no other people around ahe was on a new I don't care level. It was hot as hell and made my dick twitch in my pants. She kept rubbing her ass on it again. It wouldn't surprise me that she doesn't realize what kind of effect she has on me. When a slower song came on she turned around and looked at me from underneath her eyelashes. She put her arms around my neck. I pulled her closer to me, which I have done multiple times this night.
How we danced now reminded me of one of the last days I had with her in the 1800's. We sneaked of into the forest and ended up dancing similar to our position now. I rested my forehead against hers, our noses touching, while we swayed to the music. Last time I kissed her. I didn't want to risk her running away now. She didn't have the memories of our relationship and I didn't want to fuck it up a second time. Although the first time was actually Kathrines fault.
All of a sudden Isa closed the distance between our lips and gave me a kiss. I was shocked for a second not expecting it at all. I felt her pull back again, But I wasn't having it. One of my hands went to the back of her neck the other pushing her even closer to me if that was possible. I wanted to deepen the kiss but Isa was already licking my lips asking me to deepen it. I pushed her against the closest wall and let my hand roam over her small body. I wanted to fuck her so badly but I knew she was drunk and I didn't want her to think i took advantage of her. This kiss was all her idea and I would take everything she gives me.
I heard a small moan coming from isa's lips. If she keeps doing that I won't have the strength to stop. I lifted her of the ground, she put her legs around my waist. She broke the kiss to take breath. I assaulted her gorgeous neck. She smelled heavenly. I left a trail of kisses from my neck towards the corner of her mouth. I could smell she was turned on. I needed to stop now before I couldn't stop at all.
"Mi Cara, I would love to continue this but you are drunk and tired! Let's get you to bed." I ran at vampire speed upstairs, keeping her in the same position as she was. Within seconds we were inside my room. I laid her down and grabbed a t-shirt from me and gave it to her. She put in quickly and laid down. The moment her head hit the pillow she was fast asleep. I kissed her forehead and walked downstairs and stopped the music. I decided a cold shower was needed. After that I laid down next to Ida. She was on her side with her back towards me. I laid behind her and pulled her closer to me and let sleep take over me.
