You see Elena knew that Stefan wasn't over Katherine from the very moment she found the photo so she really wasn't that shocked when it actually happened or actually that hurt. She knew he would leave but she stayed with him anyways and she couldn't remember the reason why and she had almost broken things off with him about a month after she found the photo because she just wasn't feeling it anymore but then he confessed that he was the one that saved her when her parents crashed and that he loved her so she really had no choice but to stay with him then.

Then when Katherine came back into town and confessed that she there for Stefan, Elena knew that it was over but she still didn't break things off ,instead she waited for him to say something.'Maybe it's all in my head' she thought to herself the night before everything happened .

The next morning she went over to the Boarding House to see him as sort of a little surprise well she was actually supposed to show up later because they had plans but she decided to come over now so they could spend a little extra time together .She walked up the stairs leading to his room, twisted the door knob and she stopped as soon as she was in the threshold, there he was and there she was.

Katherine was on his lap and his tongue was down her throat. Elena didn't say anything as they stopped to look at her, Stefan didn't even try to explain because really there was no explaining this and Elena simply just left them there and rushed down the stairs and brushed past Damon without even saying a word and he knew something was wrong.

He tried to go after her but then he heard Stefan trampling down the stairs and Katherine following after him and then he put two and two obviously caught the man that she loved cheating on him with Katherine and his heart broke not because this meant that Stefan was now with the woman he loved for the past one-hundred plus years, he was way over her anyways but because Elena was hurt and it was all of his dumb brothers and a lying bitches fault .

He didn't say anything to Katherine nor Stefan but he did give them a very dirty look and boy if looks could kill they would be ash right weren't worth his time after all Elena was hurting and he wanted to be there for her, so he flashed to put on his leather jacket and to get his car keys and got into his car and raced over to Elena's house.

Walking into her room Elena felt like she couldn't breath her head was swimming her heart was pounding and she felt her face start to get very hot and she also felt tears being to form she was pissed and sad. She wanted to punch something or someone preferably Stefan or Katherine faces but most of all she wanted to cry . Her eyes darted to a picture of her and Stefan that was on her dresser she walked over to it to take it down and she ended up throwing it across the room so that it shattered against a wall , the glass and the frame breaking into a million little pieces.

She then noticed other things that he had given her on her dresser as well and at this point she was crying so she swept everything that was on the dresser off regradulas if he had given it to her or not and everything fell onto the ground with a very loud crashing sound.

She sat down on the edge of her bed and looked around and she inhaled sharply and began to cry again into her then heard and tap on her window, she knew who it had to be , she didn't even look up just continued crying he didn't wanna hear any of his excuses.

"Elena it's me Damon,please let me in" he said in a tender voice that actually soothed Elena a bit. She lifted her head and saw Damon looking at her with such a sweet and tender went up to unlock the window and open it she stepped back to let him in, wiping the tears from her face with her hands.

"What are you doing here?" asked her voice barely above a whisper

"Elena, I'm here to see you , I know what Stefan did and believe me when I tell you baby he's not worth one single tear that is coming out of your beautiful eyes"

"Damon he's cheating on me with Katherine, why her? Why does everybody want her" she said looking down at the ground

"Elena look at me" he waited until he saw her eyes to continue

"You are in way shape and form better then Katherine" he said cupping the side of her face. Elena shook her head.

"If that was true Stefan wouldn't have cheated on me and you wouldn't have been in love with her for a hundred plus years"

"Elena I was an idiot,I thought it was real, and I know now that it wasn't okay I see and know that you are better than her okay and one day Stefan is dumb really dumb he lost the most amazing and terrific girl out there to be with an evil slut who only cares about himself and one day he'll see that and he will come running back to you but by then you'll be with someone who turnly cares about you and would never hurt you" 'and I hope that person can be me' he wanted to add to badly but now wasn't the right time to try and get with her.

No she just had her heart broken by his brother and he was sure she would do anything at this point to get back at him including sleeping with his brother even if she didn't have feelings for him and Damon wanted her to have feelings for him otherwise it would be pointless he loved her and wanted for her to love him, wanted to earn her love.

Damon looked around at the disaster that was her bedroom.

"Woah,thats a lot of damage" he said looking around

"Yeah uh I get pretty carried away " she said blushing she started to bend down to pick up the broken picture frame she had thrown earlier but damon grabbed her wrist causing her to stop and look at him.

"You might cut yourself , let me?" He offered

"Oh no you don't have to, this is all my fault"

He shook his head "no Elena its okay really im happy to"

Elena smiled "well okay"

And with that in a flash Damon was zooming around the room cleaning it up and he was all done in under five minutes surprising Elena.

"There you go" he said smiling

"Thank you" She said returning the same smile

"Awe at least i got you to smile, you're gonna be okay?" he asked tucking a stray piece of her hair behind her ear

.

Elena smiled and said "yea I think I am"

" I said Stefan nor Katherine is worth it"

"You know what? You're right" She said still smiling

She turned her head and caught her reflection in the mirror, her face was all red and so were her eyes.

"Oh my god , I look horrible. Excuse me while I go and clean up in the bathroom" She said blushing and heading to the bathroom

"you still look beautiful to me" he said under his breath not loud enough for her to hear him

Several minutes later Elena emerged from the bathroom with light makeup saw Damon sitting on her bed playing with her bear normally this would have bothered her but it didn't , it actually made her feel comfortable and calm.

He couldn't help but smile when she walked out of the bathroom and didn't say anything when she saw him sitting on her bed and playing with her bear.

"So what do you wanna do Lena? I am more than happy to spend the entire day with you" He said smiling

Elena ran a hand through her hair and bit her bottom lip

"Well umm there was this movie that I was gonna go see with Ste…" she cut herself off

"Would you like to see it with me?"She asked her eyes glimmering

"Of course,I would love to" he said as he got up

"Okay,let's go" she said happily
