A/N It wasn't as soon as I was hoping, but I got the reviews I asked for, so here it the next chapter. Right now, as I have it set up, I only have three more chapters until the end, which I will probably post over next week. Review if you want them sooner. I'm going to update Exhausted and (hopefully) Honesty Time (my pretty little liars fic- Jaria) Monday, so be sure to check them out.

Chapter 36 Getting Ready

When I woke up in the morning, Damon was laying beside me smiling down at me.

"Hey, beautiful." He said to me. I smiled at the way he was looking at me. If I'd had any doubt whether he loved me or not, they disappeared right then.

"Hey." I said and sat up. I started to stretch and noticed Damon watching me. I blushed and looked away. He sat up and stretched with me.

"I should probably go before someone comes in here, but I'll see you later, okay?" He asked me.

I nodded and got up to get dressed. Once I picked my clothes and got dresses I decided I should go downstairs and talk to Jenna.

"Hey, so what's for dinner tonight?" I asked her

"What does Damon like?" She asked and I smiled to myself.

"Spaghetti. He loves it." I said off the top of my head. "I can make it."

"No, I'm making it. It's my dinner. I just need to run to the store and get some stuff."

"You don't have to do that. You can just make something out of what we have here." I said. I wanted to make this as painless as possible for her.

"Elena," She said and grabbed my upper arms, "I know that this isn't what you want to happen, but this is going to be a good night. I promise. Jeremy even agreed to join us." She said and turned to write a list of things she would need to buy. Knowing that Jeremy would be there kind of made me feel better. He could soften some of the blows.

I breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay. I just don't want to inconvience you, and I know that Damon doesn't want to do that either."

"Yeah, right." She said not believing me. "I'm going to go run some errands now." She said grabbing her coat. "I will see you both at six." She said walking out.

"Bye." I said

The rest of the day passed without mishaps. At about four I went to the Damon's to see Katherine. She gave me blood that she got from the butcher and went hurried out to meet mason for a date.

"They seem to be doing well." Damon said coming up behind me as the front door shut.

"Surprisingly." I said turning around and kissing him. "I'm worried about her."

"She'll be fine. She knows what she's doing."

"But do you? Dinner tonight might be brutal." I said

"I think I'll be okay."

"If you're sure."

"What should we do until then?" I asked him jumping on the couch.

"I can think of a few things." He said smirking at me. I smiled and he came to sit with me.

"So can I. Let's watch a movie." I said and he groaned. I started laughing and he picked out a movie.

A half an hour before we had to leave I sent him to his room to get dressed. He came down and I looked him over.

"Am I parent approved?" He asked spinning around.

"Yes." I said and grabbed his hand. "And I hope you like spaghetti." I pulled him towards the door and we made our way to my house.

A/N Five reviews and I'll update as soon as I have access to internet again! Also, vote for the sequel, which I decided to close November 30! Finally, I know :)
