They drove for a few minutes before they pulled into the parking lot of a building.
Elena saw Damon's car and felt herself get excited. She still wasn't sure what she was going to do, so there was also a ball of nerves in her stomach.
Elijah opened his mouth to say something, but Elena was already out of the car and headed for the door.
When Elena walked inside she was surprised to find Klaus and Caroline sitting there waiting for her.
"Where is he?" Elena immediately asked, causing Caroline to smirk.
Elena had been waiting for long enough, she needed to see him in person.
"In there," Caroline said, gesturing towards a door.
Elena felt her heartbeat speed up as she walked to the door, trying to keep herself at a normal pace.
When she opened the door and saw him, she couldn't keep a smile from forming on her lips although she wasn't entirely sure of why.
She could feel all of the reservations that she was holding onto trying to slip away.
All day she had been so torn and had found it so difficult to make a decision, but standing there she felt an overwhelming urge to run over to him and kiss him.
Damon looked over at her with a sheepish smile and she could see how nervous he was.
Elena slowly walked over to him, forcing herself to remain under control. Once she got close, she saw that there was another letter in his hand.
"You're a liar," Elena told him.
A look of confusion and concern formed on Damon's face.
"You said that there was only one more letter two ago," She pointed out.
Relief washed over Damon as he smirked and joked, "Sorry, I can't count."
Elena took the letter and was about to open it, but she hesitated at the last minute and then handed it back to him.
"I've done enough reading today," She told him. "I want you to tell me what this one says."
Damon let out a slightly embarrassed laugh.
"What?" Elena asked.
"This isn't the best one for that," Damon commented.
"Well it can't be as awkward as reading the one that Alaric gave me out loud," Elena pointed out with a teasing grin.
"No, but it's also not so deep," Damon told her. "It basically says that if you're going to reject me that I at least want you to get really mad and Hulk out because that way I either get to see evidence that somehow magically remain fully clothed the whole time, or I get to see you shirtless. That way it would be a win-win-win situation."
Elena rolled her eyes as she let out a quiet laugh.
"You saved the best one for last, didn't you?" She asked in an amused tone.
"Oh, clearly," Damon said sarcastically as he smirked. "…Hold on, I can probably think of something else that I didn't tell you yet."
Elena's smile grew as he tried to think of something.
"Oh," Damon said excitedly as he thought of something. "When Maddie first came here she figured out that I like you the instant that you walked in the Grill just by the way that I looked at you when you walked by. And basically the whole time that we were there she was asking me whole bunch of random questions and one of them was what my favourite superhero was. She wasn't very impressed when I told her that it was the Hulk. According to her the Hulk doesn't even do anything and she didn't believe me when I said that the Hulk saved me. And I might have revealed your secret identity to her, but she's pretty good at keeping a secret."
"Well, there's a chance that I might have lied to you about being the Hulk anyways," Elena pointed out.
"I thought of another one," Damon told her. "I told you about punching the wall, but I didn't tell you about the fact that afterwards I found out that Maddie was standing in the doorway and saw it. And she was terrified of me. She looked at me like I used to look at my dad when he was really angry. She went running to Stefan like she needed to be protected from me."
"You aren't like your dad," Elena instantly argued. "And she couldn't have been that scared if she came to find you and tell you about me and Elijah's kiss."
"She got over it pretty quickly," Damon admitted. "But I still don't like being the guy who scares little kids… And it looks like apparently I missed enough stuff that I could have given an actual letter to Ric."
"You're basically Maddie's favourite person from what I've seen," Elena pointed out. "And I like hearing you actually say some of the stuff too."
Caroline walked over to the door and peeked in to see if she could figure out if anything had happened yet. Unfortunately, all she saw was that they were talking.
"What are you doing?" Klaus asked in an amused tone.
"They're taking too long," Caroline complained as she stepped away from the doorway. "I'm impatient. I want to know if they're getting back together or not now."
Klaus chuckled a little.
