And for all those who followed.
I finally got to watch TVD last night...and oh my god I actually cried at it, and I felt so bad for my poor Damon :/ but, you go with what the heart tells you...but still Elena shouldn't be stringing him along
Ok so this chapter is going to a completely different way from the show...just hope you enjoy it.
Anyway here's chapter 26.
Chapter 26: Memory Lane
I'd gotten up, I was very, very annoyed with myself for telling Damon the truth last night, I am such an idiot sometimes and he's a complete and utter jackass. I'd spoken, little, to Elena and Stefan but decided I needed some air. I ended up at The Grill and went in, quickly tying my hair up and I sat at a table. I didn't particularly want to be bothered but I knew at some point someone would annoy me...
I stared ahead of me passively not looking at anyone, not that there was many people there, but then there was a presence next to me. I groaned inwardly.
"What do you want?" I demanded not looking at him.
"So this is what you do when you're not trying to make people feel bad?" He asked.
"I'm not trying to make anybody feel bad, Damon, it's using your own tactics against you" I said.
I got up and went to walk away from him but he grabbed my arm "Where are you going?"
"I made myself clear, Damon. I don't want anything to do with you" I said.
"Okay, see you at Jenna's barbeque" He said smugly.
I narrowed my eyes "How did you know about Jenna's barbeque?"
"It was my idea, Jenna went to high school with Mason Lockwood so I figured a social gathering would be a good way to know the guy. SO I told Rick to tell Jenna and..."
"Does Jenna know you're going to be there? Because she's not exactly a fan of yours"
Then a woman arrived with a box, with a pie in it and handed it to him.
"Perfect, thank you" He said as she walked away "I'm hoping this peach cobbler will pave the way"
"What are you up to?" I asked.
"I'm gonna put some silver into Mason Lockwood and prove he's a werewolf, see you at the barbeque" He said with a wink and he vanished from the grill. I sat back down with a huff and watched the doors, which he'd just gone through swing.
-LATER-
I was standing in the kitchen with Jenna, and Elena.
"Thanks for letting us invite Caroline" Elena said "She could use a distraction"
"Well, she's not the one I'm worried about" Jenna said eyeing me "Why is Damon coming?"
"Because Alaric is a pity taker, come on Jenna be nice" Elena said.
"I'll be nice when Damon learns to keep his paws off her" She said pointing at me.
"Yeah" I said with a sarcastic nod.
Then suddenly Mason arrived.
"Good news! I found the shot glasses"
"That would be my exit" Elena said.
She left and I turned to look at Jenna.
"You're here ten minutes and I'm already back under the bleachers at the pep rally" Jenna said.
"Like old times huh? Only I didn't swipe the bottle from my old man" He said. I laughed.
"Oh, Mason you met Elena right?"
"Yep"
"Well this is my other Niece, Aj"
"Ah, you're the girl Tyler was telling me about"
I blushed furiously "Oh, um that's me"
"He said you were pretty"
I think I went even redder "Thanks" I giggled and looked away from him.
"Oh, the expensive stuff, I like you already" Alaric said coming into the kitchen
"Just happy to be invited" Mason said with a smile.
"Thank Ric, it's his idea" Jenna said.
"Really?" Mason asked.
"Yeah, you know, I thought it would be nice to meet some of Jenna's old high school friends, dig up a little dirt"
"I've got dirt" Mason said "I've got dirt"
"I have no secrets, only dirty shame" Jenna said.
"To dirty shame" Alaric said and they all clinked glasses, I frowned slightly, I wish I was old enough to drink sometimes and that's when Damon arrived.
"Hey" He said with a smile.
"Damon" Jenna said trying not to glare.
"We were doing shots Let me give you a shot buddy" Rick said to him.
"Here, use mine" Jenna said and she left, Alaric gave me a look and he left too.
"She doesn't like me very much" Damon said.
I snorted and Damon stared at me.
"We haven't met, I'm Mason Lockwood" Mason said.
"Oh, sure Damon Salvatore" he said shaking his hand.
"I know, I heard great things about you"
"Please" I snorted.
"That's weird, cause I'm a dick" Damon said with a shrug.
"Yeah, he's not kidding" I said and walked out of the kitchen.
-LATER-
We ended up playing Pictionary and Damon was drawing a wolf with a tutu.
"Dress! Ballerina!" Jenna shouted.
"Puppy! Puppy with a tutu" Caroline shouted.
"No" Damon said "No"
"A dog! Hound-Dog" Jenna said.
"Dances with the wolves" Mason said, Damon looked at him, feigning surprise.
"Mason wins again" Damon smirked.
"How is that a wolf?" I asked staring at the picture, I got a glare from Damon and I shrugged and went into the kitchen. I took out the pie from the box and sat it on the table.
"Aunt Jenna is getting Tipsy" Damon's voice said.
"Will you stop playing with her alcohol?" I snapped.
"I want her to like me"
I grunted inwardly "How is operation Lockwood?"
"He's my new BFF" He smirked.
Jenna suddenly came in "There you are! Isn't this fun?"
"Yes, thank you so much for inviting me" Damon said.
"Did I have a choice?" Jenna asked.
"I know what you must think of me" He replied.
"No, you don't. You've never dated you, I have dated many you's" She said.
"I'm a work in progress" He said. Big headed much?
I gave a cake knife to Jenna and Damon obviously noticed.
"Those are fancy" He said.
"Thanks, my mother's silver set"
I looked at him and he snatched one without Jenna noticing.
We were all sitting at the table, I ended up having to sit next to Damon, which in normal circumstances wouldn't have bothered me. He put the pie on the table and turned it towards Mason.
"Mason, why don't you start us off?" Damon asked smugly.
I could also see the half smug look on Mason's face...because now he knew what Damon was up to.
He took it in his hands, and I looked up at Damon's face, who was scowling.
"I apologize, I'm an animal" Mason smirked.
"So Mason, you and Jenna never dated?" Alaric asked.
"She was always lost in Logan Fell land"
"My first mistake, Mason was a catch he had girls lining up" Jenna said.
"Really?" Damon asked "I always pegged you for a lone wolf" Damon said.
I rolled my eyes at his attempt.
"I'm sure I wasn't half the lady killer you were, how about a toast? To new friends" Mason said.
They all clinked their glasses together and I made a face at them.
-LATER-
We were in the living room, we'd finished playing guitar hero and I went into the kitchen, seeing Damon.
"I heard you in there" He said.
"What?" I asked.
"Flirting with Mason" He said with a smirk "You're trying to make me jealous"
I frowned with confusion "What are you yapping on about? I was being polite Damon"
"Yeah, ok"
"Why would you care anyway?" I asked
"What is that supposed to mean?" He asked.
"You know fine well what it means" I snapped "Why would you be jealous? Don't you have Elizabeth to chase after?"
"Are you showing signs of jealousy?" He asked.
"I'm not jealous Damon, I honestly don't care" I said "It's not my problem to deal with"
"Always the Lockwood's" He mumbled.
"What?"
"Never mind" He said.
"No Damon, say what you just said" I said.
"Always the Lockwood's" He snapped and stood in front of me.
I glared up at him "Mason's a good guy-"
"He's a werewolf" He said "He's not a good guy"
"Yeah, well he's being fine with me"
"So is Tyler apparently" He said.
"Why are you doing this?" I asked.
"Proving my point"
"What point?" I asked confused.
"You'll see" He said.
"No I won't, what do you want from me Damon? What exactly is it that you want?"
"I want you" He said.
I stared at him "Don't lie to me"
"I'm not lying, last night you told me you loved me, today you don't want anything to do with me" He hissed quietly.
"Can you blame me?"
"What?"
"I want from you, what you can't give me, you're not capable of giving me it Damon, so stop trying"
"No"
"You're not going to get anything else from me, I've tried, and tried with you, what else is there for me to possibly do?" I asked.
He stared down at me and hesitated "Come with me"
"What? Where?"
"The boarding house"
"Why?" I asked.
"So I can prove that I don't want her" He said.
"What exact-"
He didn't let me finish because his lips crushed mine, I didn't even attempt to push him back, because he moved back and went to the other side of the room and that's when Jenna walked in.
I sighed slightly and picked up the plate.
"Hey, you okay?" She asked eyeing Damon.
"What? Yeah, I'm fine, why wouldn't I be?"
"You've been here a long time" She said.
"I'm doing the dishes" I said. "And he's...helping"
I looked over at Damon's back and He turned his head with a smile. I wanted to kiss him again...to not stop kissing him...EVER.
I headed out the kitchen and went into the living room.
Everyone said their goodbyes and Damon tried to sweet talk Jenna, but I wasn't so sure it worked. Damon had left, like everyone else and I went to my room, and I must've fallen asleep.
-DREAM-
I was in the living room of the boarding house, well I was walking through it, my hand intertwined with Damon's. We got to his room and went in.
"We shouldn't be doing this" He smirked.
I shook my head, shut the room door, turned and pulled his face down to mine; he then turned me so I was against the wall. Why was I doing this again? Didn't I hate him like five minutes ago? He kissed my neck and I tried not to moan.
"See" He breathed out "I like this"
I smirked and I wrapped my legs around his waist "We do this now...there is no going back" He mumbled through kisses. I pulled back to look at him and frowned.
"Way to ruin a moment" I huffed.
"Oh no, no, no, no" He said when I went to move and pulled my face to his again.
We were then on the bed, Damon hovering above me.
"Are you sure about this?" He whispered.
I stared up at him...was I sure about this? Did I really want to go through with this? It was when his eyes met mine that I decided I did. I just couldn't stay mad at him...
"Yes" I breathed out and then he smiled so lovingly and he kissed my lips, and then removed the clothes...
-END OF DREAM-
My eyes opened and I gasped, sitting up. What the hell was that? WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?
I put my face in my hands and rubbed the sweat away.
"Nice to see you're awake" A voice said.
I let out a yelp and fell of the bed, but before I landed on my ass I was caught, I sighed when I looked up at him and I think I must've went red.
"What?" He asked.
"I didn't say anything" I mumbled when he placed me on the bed.
He sat next to me, one arm around my waist, I felt awkward but not uncomfortable...even though that dream had weird end me out...but now I wanted him more than I had earlier, I wanted him..no NEEDED him.
"I'm sorry" He said "For everything that I've done, everything that I've said"
I looked round at him "Why?"
"Because I hurt you, in the worst way possible" He said. "All I want is for us to be friends again"
I bit the inside of my lip "I forgive you"
He stared at me "You do?"
"Yeah" I mumbled slightly embarrassed.
He kissed my cheek, and it tingled and I turned my head to look at him again, his face inches from mine and before I could help myself my lips crushed against his, he was taken by surprise but he eventually kissed me back.
I wrapped my arms around his neck and smiled inwardly to myself...I could be such a pushover when it was needed. He broke the kiss and I had to stop myself from groaning.
"I better go, before Jenna adds to that wall of hatred" He said and he quickly kissed my temple and then left.
I stared at the empty room in front of me...what the hell was happening to me? Since when was I a soft touch? Oh my god I'm going soft...
