Disclaimer: I'm not affiliated with The Vampire Diaries in any way. I am just a fan.This is part of a para I wrote on my TVD RPG on Tumblr. Unfortunately the part in Damon's perspective on his way to Elena's house is gone, so I couldn't include that here. If you like it and want me to continue writing this story or stories like this, please leave a review letting me know. I'm just posting this as a one-shot for now to see what kind of feedback I receive. Like I said, if I get positive feedback and encouragement, I will continue writing this fic.
"Tonight's the night.." I said to myself slowly, taking a deep breath. I stepped out of the bathroom, not wanting to leave the steam from my shower but knew it was unavoidable. I sat down at my dressing table, picked up my comb, and brushed through my hair. I was nervous. I don't know why I'm so nervous.. it's Damon. There was no reason in the world why I should be, he's my best friend, and I'm more comfortable with him than I am with anyone else in the whole world. I just.. want tonight to be absolutely perfect.
I slowly stood up, walking over to my closet to figure out what I was going to wear. He said I should dress casual.. so, how bout this? I studied a light pink tank top that I bought a few weeks ago at the mall. Setting the shirt back down, I opened up my dresser drawer and picked out a matching underwear and bra set that was lacy I had just bought at Victoria's Secret not too long ago. My heart race then picked up, almost to the point of hyperventilation. I fell back into a chair, gazing at nothing. What if he.. and I.. tonight.. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes slowly, trying to calm myself down. I picked up my favorite perfume and spritzed it onto my skin. Then grabbing the shirt, I pulled it over my head onto place, then smoothed my hair. I knew the temperature was going to be higher than normal tonight..in more ways than one.
Taking another deep breath, I walked back into my closet looking for a pair of shorts to match my shirt. I ended up finding a cute, white pair that made my legs look nice. Thank god I shaved my legs.. I rubbed my "cherry blossom" body lotion that I got from Bath & Body Works all over myself, hoping I wasn't overdoing it. I sat back down at my dressing table, picked up my blow-dryer and began drying my hair. When I finished, I straightened it until it was pin straight. I wonder what we're doing for dinner. I pondered in thought while working on myself. I applied a few coats of mascara and eyeliner then grabbed my shoes and purse and headed downstairs. I smiled to myself, excited to see his face again.
I just want tonight to be perfect, I want everything to go..smoothly. I checked myself in the mirror, sighed, and plopped down on the couch. I heard the doorbell ring a few minutes later and my heart beat accelerated once again, I hoped that detail wouldn't register in his thoughts. I opened the door, smiling wide when I saw him standing there with flowers in hand, smiling back at me. "Hi," I breathed and laughed lightly, trying to rid my ridiculous, nonstop smiling.
