This Chapter is a bit short sorry, but it is a bit of a filler chapter.
Chapter 14"I know it was a shock to me too," Elena sighed, "but the more time I spend with you, the more I believe it."
Damon just sat quietly, staring at the woman in the seat next to him, 'soulmate, a witch told her I am her soulmate.'
"I didn't want to tell you so soon, I mean we've only really known eachother for like 4 days," Elena said, "but I just didn't think it was fair to keep it a secret anymore." Elena exhaled. "Damon please say something." Elena asked looking at him.
"I… well, hmm." Damon didn't know what to say, what do you say when someone tells you something like that. "Well, I know that I have never felt the way I feel about you, ever before." Damon said starting the Camaro again.
"And I have never felt about someone the way I feel about you either," Elena said smiling.
"So, what is it that we do about this then?" Damon said as he pressed his foot down a little harder on the accelerator.
"Well, I guess we could start by introducing ourselves, hi I am Elena Gilbert, I am 17, my mom and dad – Miranda and Grayson Gilbert died in a car crash last year, I have 1 brother, until last week I was a normal teenager. However, really I am a doppelganger, whose blood needs to be used to break a sun and moon curse. Oh and my soulmate is a vampire! How do you do?!" Elena laughed as she said her silly introduction.
"Well, Miss Gilbert hi, I am Damon Salvatore I was born in Mystic Falls on June 18, 1839 to Gusieppie and Lillian Salvatore. My mom died when I was 17 of consumtion in 1858; and Stefan killed my father. I also have 1 brother. I was turned into a vampire in 1864 by Kathrine Perice when I was 25. Therefore, I am for eternity an eternal stud." Damon winked at Elena.
"Well now that introductions are out of the way how about we go on a date?" Elena giggled, 'this whole scenario is ridiculous.' But as crazy as it was this silly stuff was keeping Elena's mind off of Klaus and the curse. For once in months Elena felt alive.
"Well now Miss Gilbert we will do just that, the Mystic Grill does have pretty good food." Damon said jokingly.
"Uh, maybe we should go somewhere else I don't want you eating Viki again!" Elena gagged, she didn't want her boyfriend anywhere near that skank, 'wait did I just say boyfriend?' Elena smiled to herself.
"I won't eat any waitresses while we are out on a date, kitten." Damon smiled, she made him laugh, for once in over 150 years Damon felt human again.
"Okay, well um… I hate to ask but is there any other way you can get your…" Elena didn't know how to ask him not to eat people.
"Elena, for you I will stop eating people, If that's what will make you happy. But I cant go on the animal diet my brother does. I will get blood bags from the hospital but I will not drink animal blood," Damon said gagging.
"Thank you Damon," Elena said squeezing his hand.
"Baby, why don't you take a nap we will be home in a few hours." Damon said stroking her hand.
"Maybe, I just am going to turn on my phone and check if Jenna called at all." Elena said pulling her phone out of her pocket and switching it on.
Her phone turned on 21 missed calls – Stefan, 'ugh, can he not get the message.' Elena sighed as she cleared off all of her call history.
Text from Bonnie hey 'Lena are you home? Is everything okay I haven't heard from you in a while?
Text from Caroline ELENA GILBERT where are you! you missed cheerleading practice.
Elena groaned.
"Everything okay princess?" Damon asked concerned.
"Yep, just Caroline is pissed at me, Stefan is obsessed with me and Bonnie is worried." Elena sighed.
"Well, love, you just lay down and have a nap we will be home before you know it. Then you can deal with your friends and I can deal with my brother." Damon said.
"I can handle Stefan, Damon." Elena warned.
"Elena, I don't want you to get hurt, when Stefan gets mad, he can't control himself sometimes." Damon said not wanting to scare her.
"Well, you get mad and can't control yourself sometimes, but I know you wouldn't hurt me, so I am sure Stefan would be the same." Elena said dozing off.
"I wish you were right 'Lena." Damon whispered, hoping that when Stefan finds out about them that he won't revert to his Ripper ways. Damon felt a shiver down his spine.
