Chapter 3

Damon's point of view

Elena looked at me with those big brown eyes of hers with a desperate longing that made me decide what had been brewing on my mind a lot. I just did not know if she would agree to it. She took my hand without any kind of hesitation.

I wrapped my arms around her tiny waist; pulling her closer to me which I had been wanting to do all day. But she had been so busy with her studies that we did not get enough time to spend moments like this. She rested her head on my left shoulder. We started dancing slowly; our bodies swaying as if there were a strong current pulsating between us. I cleared my throat.

"Can I ask you something, Elena?" I asked her; intending to ask her the question that had been upon my mind lately.

"Sure, " she replied. I felt her head shaking in clear affirmation.

"Will you marry me?"

She was quiet for a while as if she had been petrified by my question. She lifted her head from my shoulder to look at me with those big innocent eyes of hers that I would find myself drowning into.

"Ofcourse."

"But I want to complete this semester first."

"After I finish this first grueling year of medical classes, I will surely marry you, Damon Salvatore." She said playfully; wrapping her arms around my neck. I did that eye thing she once told me not to do. Back then, she was so immune to my charms that she asked me not to do it. She could not help smiling at my antics she got accustomed to by living with me these days
