Stefan panicked and immediately vamped after her but by the time he got to the front door, she was gone. "Katherine! Fuck!" He screamed out the door into the brisk night air while slamming his fist against the wall. Caroline cautiously approached him and gently grabbed his arm, turning him around to face her. His face was covered in veins, his fangs were dripping with saliva and his eyes were dark black.
"Let go of me, Caroline! This wouldn't even have happened if you didn't run in there!" He snarled as he aggressively ripped his arm from her grasp and kicked the front door closed. Caroline flinched as he stormed past her, brushing against her arm on his way towards the liquor cart.
"Stefan, I'm sorry, okay? I was just so angry, I mean, she did kill me!" She screeched as she angrily vamped in front of him. He was holding a small glass of bourbon, staring down at the amber liquid as he swirled it around. He glanced up at a fuming Caroline and chuckled lowly under his breath. He set the glass down after chugging it, relishing in the way it burned his chest, and lightly grabbed Carolines shoulders.
"You have every right to be angry, but Katherine will actually kill you, Caroline. She's a lot older and stronger, even than me. So please just, listen to me when it comes to her, I still don't know what drove her to come here in the first place, and she's dangerous."
Caroline let out a deep breath to calm her nerves and nodded her head, "I get it. I'm sorry, I'm not used to feeling things so intensely. I wanted to rip her heart out, Stefan. I never felt that way before. And now, the gentle way you're holding onto my shoulders, and looking into my eyes. The way that vein is pulsating in your neck." She slowly ran her fingers up his chest and backed him against the wall, pressing her body flush to his. He leaned his head back as his eyes fluttered closed and a low groan escaped his lips, "Caroline, all your senses will be heightened." He breathed out as she brushed her lips across his neck. He gripped onto her hips and tried to back her away, his chest was heaving, and his cock was throbbing with need.
"Caroline, we shouldn't." He panted as she gently bit down into his neck, sensually drinking his blood. He tangled his fingers into her hair as she rubbed her hand over his aching erection. She moaned against his skin and ripped his jeans open, quickly shoved her hand down into his boxers, grabbing onto his pulsating cock. Stefan let out a low moan as his lips parted and he thrusted into her hand, "Caroline. Fuck, I, I, fuck." He stuttered as he picked Caroline up, wrapped her legs around his waist, and vamped them up into his bedroom. He rushed them into his room and threw her down onto the bed, tearing her clothes from her body in the process.
"Stefan, mmm, touch me." She pleaded as she wiggled around on the bed. She seductively stared into his eyes as she ran her hands up her body and pinched her nipples through her bra. Stefan growled deep in his chest and quickly removed his clothes before stalking up her body, leaving a trail of feathery kisses across her milky skin. She arched off the bed and let out a low moan as his lips brushed over her wet panties. "Every, nerve, in your body, is more sensitive, every, single, part of you, will feel even the slightest touch." He whispered as he teasingly ran his fingers over her breasts, reaching behind her to unclasp her bra and nibbled on her hip bone.
"Uhh, God, Ste-Stefan, please." She whimpered as her hands shot down, tangling her fingers in his hair. He smiled against her skin and grabbed onto her panties with his teeth, slowly dragging them down her overly sensitive body. He glanced up at her as he kissed his way back up her inner thighs and groaned as the scent of her arousal filled his nose. She stared down at him with pleading eyes, silently begging for his touch, as he lightly ran his tongue through her wet folds. Her body jolted as soon as his tongue flicked over her clit, and she cried out his name. "Oh, God, don't st-don't sto-fuck!" She breathed out as she squeezed her thighs around his head, holding him tight against her pussy. Her fingers dug into his hair and her hips were grinding up into his face as he sucked her clit into his mouth and gently pushed two fingers inside her, curling them up towards her sweet spot. "Stefan! Oh God!" She screamed out in ecstasy as her orgasm came crashing down over her. He waited till her body stopped trembling and then slowly pulled his fingers from her before kissing his way up her body, "You taste amazing." He whispered into her ear as he lightly ran the tip of his tongue around it.
Caroline let out a deep moan and pulled him down against her lips, hungrily kissing him. Her legs wrapped around his waist, and she flipped them over, pinning him down by straddling him. He dropped his head back into the pillows underneath him and gripped onto her hips with a bruising force. "God, Caroline." He moaned as she ground her heated core down against his aching cock and lightly trailed her fingers up his muscular chest, pinching each one of his nipples. Stefan growled deep and bucked his hips against her as she ground down into him, "Caroline, fuck, I, please." He breathed out as his nails dug into her hips, slightly drawing blood.
She smiled at him and leaned down, trailing her tongue across his neck as she wiggled her hips teasingly, "Tell me what you want, Stefan."
Stefan groaned and aggressively flipped them over, pinning her wrists above her head in one hand and trailing his fingers over her nipples with the other. He licked his lips as he looked into her lustful eyes and tucked his head down into the crook of her neck, "I want to make you feel things you've never felt before." He whispered into her ear as he rolled her nipple between his fingers. She gasped and arched into his touch, "P-please, oh God, Stefan." She begged as she felt his cock throbbing against her inner thigh. She propped herself up on her elbow and gently bit down into his neck as his cock teased her entrance, making him plunge forward into her. "Fuck, Caroline." He moaned as her teeth sunk deeper into his skin. He grabbed a fistful of her hair and held her mouth tight to his neck as he pounded into her and let out an animalistic growl before biting down into her shoulder.
Carolines head flew back into the pillows, her eyes rolling into her head as Stefan ran his fingers down the side of her body leaving a trail of goosebumps. He let go of her shoulder and lapped up any remaining blood before wrapping her legs around his waist and gripping onto her hips as he continued pounding into her. She ran her fingers through his hair, making him purr, and pulled his lips down to hers, passionately kissing him. He moaned into her mouth as her pussy tightened around him and sped up his movements, "Oh, Stefan, yes, please. Cum with me, I-I'm so close." She panted as she trailed kisses up his neck, lightly nibbling on his earlobe. His eyes fluttered shut for a moment as he let himself feel every pulse around his cock. He gripped onto her hips and rested his forehead against hers as his movements became more erratic and forceful. She held onto the back of his neck, staring deep into his eyes as her pussy clenched down on his cock sending them both falling into climax.
"Caroline!" Stefan cried out as his body trembled with release. His cock was throbbing and pumping out inside her as she continued slowly moving her hips up into him, draining him of everything he had. He fell into her, resting his head on her chest and let out a deep breath as she soothingly ran her fingers up and down his back, making him purr.
"Thank you, Caroline, I, I really-"
"Shh, Stefan. Just relax. Let someone take care of you for once. I know you barely know me, and I just turned but, I feel like you need someone." She cooed as he let his eyes close, being lulled to sleep by her tender touch. He rested his arm around her waist and snuggled down into her chest, trying not to think about his brother and Elena cuddled up in the same house.
A few hours later a crashing noise startled Elena awake coming from down the hall. Damon jumped up in a defensive stance and vamped over towards the door, holding his finger against his lips to alert Elena to stay quiet. He tuned in to listen out for any other noises and could hear very light footsteps descending the stairs. He looked over at Elena and signaled for her to stay where she was before quietly opening his door and stalking out into the hallway. Usually, he would have no problem running out of the room ready to fight, but with Elena, he needed to be cautious. He crept down the hall towards the stairs and caught a glimpse of a female scurrying towards the front door.
"Katherine." He growled low in his throat as he vamped down after her. He gripped the back of her hair and yanked her back right before she ran out the door. "How did you get out?" He snarled as he pinned her against the wall. She chuckled under her breath and wiggled her eyebrows, "Wouldn't you like to know?" Before he could respond she grabbed his wrist and bent his arm behind his back, vamping them across the room and throwing him against the wall.
"What do you want, Katherine? Why are you even here?" His face was being pressed against the wall making it harder for him to speak. He growled and tossed her backwards off him, quickly spun around and tackled her down to the ground. She laughed as he pinned both her arms to the floor as the veins appeared under his eyes.
"Tell me why you're here Katherine." He hissed as she continued laughing. She shrugged her shoulders as she wiggled her hands free from his grasp and tangled her fingers in his hair. He let a small moan escape his lips as her fingers trailed down his neck to his chest and brushed over his nipples. His eyes fluttered shut for a moment as she thrusted her hips up into him, rubbing against his growing erection that was only covered by a thin layer of silky boxers.
"Don't fight it anymore, Damon. I know you want me, just one more time." She whispered seductively as her hand traveled down his body, teasing the band of his boxers. He groaned and instinctively bucked into her as her fingers danced around his groin. She watched as he fought with himself, his body begging for attention, but his head and heart were both telling him to stop. His eyes lazily opened, and he gazed down at her with hooded lids as she finally slid her hand into his boxers, gripping onto his throbbing cock.
"Uhh, Katherine. No. I, I can't." He panted as she began pumping him, running her thumb through the pre cum. His head fell back, his eyes fluttered shut and he whimpered quietly as she tightened her grip around him.
"Come on, Damon. Let go, you know you want to. You know you've waited almost 200 years for me. Don't you want your cock inside me?" She purred as she pulled him down towards her and ran her tongue up his neck. A deep growl rumbled in his chest, as he grabbed her throat and he stared deep into her eyes making her quicken her pace. His eyebrows knitted together and his lips slightly parted, but he was trying to keep his composure. He knew he was close, but he couldn't, wouldn't, give her that satisfaction. She moaned as his hand tightened around her throat and the veins started to trail down under his eyes. He let out a deep grunt and bucked forward, unable to control his animalistic urges any longer. His eyes fell shut for a moment and he let out a shaky deep breath as he tried his best to control himself but when her other hand started teasing his balls through his boxers, he snapped.
"Fuck. I, Katherine, I hate you." He groaned as he let go of her neck and swiftly picked her up off the ground, vamping them down into the cellar. He aggressively threw her down onto the tiny cot and savagely ripped her pants off before attacking her pussy with his mouth. "Damon! Fuck!" She cried out as he nibbled on her clit while pressing a couple fingers inside her, making her body tremble. He dug his nails into her hips and held her against his face as he licked her pussy, twirling his tongue around her clit and sucking on it for a few seconds bringing her right to the edge before abruptly pulling away, tearing his boxers off, and plunging his cock inside her.
He groaned as he pounded into her, throwing her legs up on his shoulders. She dug her nails into his ass cheeks and pushed him in deeper as she moved her hips in a circular motion making his eyes roll back. He held onto the wall behind them and forcefully drilled into her, bending the cot legs in the process.
"Cum for me, Damon, Iet go." He smirked down at her and leaned down into her neck, trailing his tongue up towards her ear. She tilted her head to the side, "Do it." She demanded as her fingers threaded through his hair, holding his mouth against her. He growled as his fangs descended and bit down into her delicate skin, moaning as her blood hit his tongue. She cried out and bucked up into him as he drank from her, passionately and sexually draining her life source. Her body was trembling as her orgasm neared and she could tell he was close too.
"Uhh, Damon, I need to taste you." She moaned before gently biting down into his shoulder. He grunted loudly as her fangs punctured his skin and began pounding down into her as he continued drinking her blood. Their bodies were moving frantically together, both completely consumed by the other. Damon dropped her legs down to wrap them around his waist and wrapped his arms around her body, holding her as close to him as possible. Her pussy tightened around his cock as her fangs sunk deeper into him sending him spiraling into a wave of pure ecstasy. His whole body was shaking as they both crashed into their own climax and he let go of her neck, resting his head against her as he lost control. She clung onto him as tightly as she could, her legs wrapped around his waist, her arms holding him to her, as her pussy clenched down around his cock, milking him of every last drop. He let out a shaky deep breath as he propped himself up on his elbow to look down at her, and shook his head, "Fuck." He breathed out before pulling out of her and standing up, anxiously running his fingers through his hair. She sat up and grabbed his waist before he could move any further away and ran her tongue up the length of his cock, collecting all of their mixed cum. His knees buckled for a second making him stumble forward and lean onto the wall as her mouth closed over just the tip of his cock, twirling her tongue around it.
"Stop. Enough." He panted as she swallowed him completely down her throat. "Fuck, Katherine. What are you trying to prove?" He breathed out as he gripped the hair at the nape of her neck, pulling her mouth off him. She stared up into his eyes and shook her head, "Prove? Nothing. I just missed you, Damon." He smirked and let out a sarcastic chuckle as he ran his fingers down the side of her face, "If only." Before she could respond he turned towards the door and vamped out of the cellar, leaving her speechless and more than confused. She was certain he would lock her up once they were finished but he just, left her there. She quickly got dressed in whatever clothes weren't ripped to shreds and quietly made her way up the stairs. She walked into the living room and found Damon standing in front of the fireplace completely naked, holding a glass of bourbon. She cautiously made her way over to him and gently placed her hand on his lower back. He let out a deep breath as he looked down at her with tears clouding his vision before chugging his drink and looking back into the fire.
"Please just leave, Katherine. You want Stefan? Go get him. Otherwise, just, please." He softly pleaded before walking towards his liquor cart to fill up another glass. Katherine stayed frozen by the fire for a moment, tears forming in her eyes as she thought about all the pain she put him through. She glanced over at him as one lonely tear escaped her eye and let out a sorrowful sigh. He shrugged his shoulders, placed his empty glass down and started towards the stairs.
"Damon, wait." She whispered as she vamped over to him, blocking his path. Tears were steadily flowing down his cheeks which he didn't want her to see but to his surprise, she tenderly wiped them from his face and leaned up on her toes to press a soft kiss to his lips. He stared at her in utter confusion and shook his head, "Don't. Just fucking leave." He choked out before vamping up the stairs to his room and shutting the door behind him. He leaned back against the door and slid down to the floor, cradling his head in his hands.
"Damon? What's wrong?" Elena instantly got up and went to his side. He looked up into her eyes and chuckled sarcastically, "I don't deserve you, Elena. I don't know why or how you love me, but you shouldn't. I, I'm not a good person, Elena, I act impulsively and violently, you deserve better." He whispered the last couple of words as a few tears rolled down his cheeks. Elena knelt by his side and reached out to rub his back, but he flinched away. She shook her head and moved closer to him, grabbing both sides of his face, "What happened, Damon? Talk to me." He gazed into her deep loving eyes for a moment, realizing how much she genuinely did love him, and it broke his heart. He placed his hands on top of hers and laced their fingers together, "I, I just wanted to make sure that you were safe. When I went out there to see where that noise came from, I really, I didn't expect to see Katherine of all people. And I, she got in my head, Elena. I, I" Elena dropped her hands from his face and slowly backed away from him with tears in her eyes. He hesitantly reached for her hand and brought it to his chest, "I, Elena, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I know I screwed up I love you so fucking much. I understand if you never want to see me again, I really do. But please just know, I did it because something inside of me needed closure with her and I just, I just needed to know that what we had wasn't real and what me and you have is. I've never been in love like this before, I thought I loved her for my whole undead life. But then I met you, and you make me feel alive again, and I am so in love with you. I know I fucked everything up but please don't ever forget how much I love you."
Elena stared at him from a few minutes, trying to think of something to say. She squeezed his hand that was still holding onto hers and reached over to brush the hair from his face with her other. He leaned into her touch, as she rested her palm against his cheek, "Damon. I, I love you so much. I wish I could be mad at you but I, I don't know why, but I understand. I mean, you spent 100 plus years waiting to save her, I can understand why you would need closure. I just, I obviously don't like that you slept with her. I don't see how that was necessarily needed for closure, but I can't hate you. You aren't a bad person, you're just, broken, and I don't intend on going anywhere. I just need a little time to process everything I guess." Elena wiped the trail of tears from under his eyes and pressed a tentative kiss to his lips. He sighed into her and pulled her into a tight embrace, his arms wrapped around her petite body, holding her like he was afraid to let go. She lightly ran her fingers through his hair until he pulled away to look at her. She smiled as her head tilted to the side and she ran her fingers down the side of his face, "Go shower, and come to bed, okay? Please." She whispered before pressing a tender kiss to his forehead.
He slowly nodded his head in agreement and both of them stood up off the floor. She smiled at him once more before he walked away into the bathroom. He stopped in front of the vanity and stared at himself in the mirror for a second before angrily throwing his fist into it, shattering it to pieces. Elena came running into the bathroom and panicked at the amount of blood trailing down his arm. Their was broken glass covering the floor, counter and stuck in between his knuckles. She quickly grabbed a small towel and made her way over to him, cautiously grabbing his hand so she could help him pull the glass out. He watched as she tenderly held his bloody hand, carefully pulled each piece of glass that she could see and kissed away the pain.
"I'm sorry." He whispered as she wrapped the towel around his hand. She gently nodded her head and pressed a sweet kiss to his lips. "I'll clean this up, just take a shower." She said softly before disappearing from the room. He watched her walk away and took a quick glance around at the broken glass before forcing himself to get in the shower. He turned the water as hot as he could handle and leaned against the shower wall as the water turned pink from his dried blood. He could faintly see Elena through the shower doors sweeping up the broken glass and tossing it into a garbage pail. She stopped for a moment and rested against the counter; her head slouched down staring at the dried blood. He quietly slid the shower door open and watched as she carefully picked up a piece of glass with his blood on it and gently pricked the tip of her finger. He was about to say something but was shocked when he watched her lick her own blood with her eyes closed as if she enjoyed it. He couldn't help but feel aroused watching her tongue dart out and lap up the tiny drops of blood. A slight moan came from deep in his throat and his cock twitched when she opened her eyes and stared hungrily into his. She put the piece of glass into the garbage and sauntered over towards him, stopping inches away from his lips. He slid the door open wider, hoping that she would be willing to join, but she just stood there, gazing into his eyes. She watched as a drop of water traveled from his collarbone down to his hip and disappeared. Her eyes slowly traveled over his wet body, taking in every muscle and scar, before looking back into his eyes, licking her lips instinctually. He groaned as his cock started to throb and stepped back into the shower, under the water. He ran his hand over his abs with a bar of soap and moaned as his hand brushed across his cock. She let out a deep breath and continued watching him, the scent of her arousal was driving him insane. He put the soap down and stared deep into her eyes as he grabbed his cock and slowly started pumping himself.
"Keep doing that." She whispered seductively as she began to remove her clothes one by one. He let out a low moan and tightened his grip around himself, moving his hand faster, and held onto the wall with his other. His eyebrows scrunched together as his breathing sped up and she finally stepped into the shower, still staring into his eyes.
"Don't cum." She commanded as she ran her hands over her body, lightly pinching her nipples until they were hard. He let out a deep breath and continued pumping himself, watching her every move. She watched as his toes began to curl and could tell he was close. She smirked at him and walked up behind him, reaching around his waist to grab his cock and push his hand away.
"Fuck, Elena. I, if you don't want me to cum, you need to stop." He breathed out as she ran her thumb around the tip of his cock, gripping onto him tightly as she pumped faster. He leaned both his hands against the wall and tried to focus on anything else other than how badly he wanted to cum. But then she knelt in front of him and teasingly ran her tongue up the length of his cock and he almost lost it. His hips bucked forward as she swallowed him down her throat, massaging the head of his cock with her throat muscles.
"Elena, please." He pleaded and he didn't even know what for. Was he begging her to stop so he wouldn't cum or was he begging her to let him cum? His legs were starting to shake as he neared his release, and he felt her hands hold onto his thighs to steady him. She hummed around his cock a few times, bringing him right to the edge before pulling away from him, staring into his hooded eyes as his chest was heaving. He let out a desperate moan and ground his hips against her body, "Elena, God, I need you. Please."
She trailed her fingers up his chest and wrapped her hands around his neck, pulling his lips down against hers, hungrily kissing him while rubbing her wet body against his aching erection. He whimpered as her hand closed around him again and started slowly pumping, "This is mine." She whispered in his ear as she continued moving her hand up and down his cock. He moaned loudly and rested his forehead against hers, staring deep into her eyes, "I am yours, Elena. I promise." He breathed out as he felt his climax approaching again. She nibbled down his neck and let go of his cock again before wrapping her leg around his waist as he picked up the other one and lowered herself down onto him.
"Holy shit, Elena. You feel amazing." He panted as her pussy clamped down around his cock and he flipped them around, pinning her against the wall. Her nails dug into his shoulders as he thrusted into her as hard as he could without breaking her.
"Damon, don't cum." She commanded seductively as she slid her hand between them, gently massaging his balls. He moaned desperately as he pounded into her and crashed his lips against hers passionately as his cock swelled up inside her. His knees were beginning to buckle from the intensity, and he rested against the wall behind them, holding Elena tightly around his waist as she slowly ground into him. He dug his nails into her hips and growled at her as he started to thrust harder. She leaned her head back against the wall and ran her nails down his back, tearing into his skin. "Fuck, Elena. Please." He was breathing heavy as he looked into Elenas eyes and ran his fingers over her lips before hungrily kissing her. She moaned into his mouth and pulled away, cocking her head to the side to expose her neck. A deep growl rumbled from his chest and his cock was leaking precum as she tangled her fingers in his hair, forcefully pulling his mouth down to her neck, "Elena." He groaned as his fangs descended and he ran his tongue up the pulsating vein under her skin. She wrapped her legs tighter around his waist and pushed him deeper into her making him stumble forward, leaning heavily against the wall behind them. His balls were so tight and ready to cum that he was ready to do anything for her to allow him to release. He lightly nibbled on her collarbone as he continued pounding into her, his movements were becoming more frantic and desperate. Her pussy clenched down around him, and he let out a loud moan as he came close to cuming. She could feel his cock throbbing inside her, and she knew he needed release. She brought her eyes back down to his and lightly ran her fingers down his chest, pinching his nipples. He groaned and leaned his forehead against hers, gazing deep into her eyes as she started to move in sync with him. She tangled her fingers in his hair and passionately kissed him, massaging his tongue with her own, moving faster and harder to bring him what he so desperately needed. He broke away from her lips and let out a deep breath while staring into her eyes, silently begging her. She trailed her fingers down the side of his face down his neck, and whispered in his ear, "Cum for me, Damon. Right. Now."
He growled loudly as he began to frantically thrust into her, his legs were trembling with anticipation. She gently cupped his balls to massage them and ran her lips down his neck, lightly nibbling, making him purr. "God, Elena. I, fuck!" He cried out as her pussy clamped down around him, bringing him into his climax. He let out a loud moan and fell into the wall, holding onto Elena with one arm. His chest was heaving as he tried to catch his breath and he tenderly kissed her on the lips, "Fuck, Elena. I love you."
She smiled as she dropped her legs from around his waist and cupped his face lovingly, "I know." She kissed him quickly on the lips before turning off the water and pulling him out of the bathroom, both still dripping wet. She handed him a towel once they reached the bed and they dried off before snuggling up next to each other, Damon lying on his back with his arm wrapped around Elenas waist, and her head resting on his chest, both quickly falling to sleep. She lightly ran her fingers through his hair and propped herself up on her elbow, staring down into his eyes, "Damon, I, just know that I never meant to hurt you. I, I was just, I was trying to survive. But I am sorry for any pain I ever caused you. Just remember that ok?"
Damon quickly sat up and backed away from her with a confused look on his face, "What? Ele-no. You, I heard her heart beating, why are you doing this?!" He panicked as he bolted from the bed to his dresser, quickly throwing on clothes. She stared at him confused and shook her head, "What are you talking about?" Elena slowly sat up and leaned towards him, "It is me, I'm right here. What's wrong?" She whispered as she cautiously made her way over to him. His eyebrows knitted together as she stood in front of him and he hesitantly put his hand over her chest to feel her heart beating, "Elena?" He whispered with a sigh of relief.
"It's okay Damon, I'm here." She whispered as she ran her fingers up his chest. He let out a deep breath and lightly traced the outline of her lips with his thumb. She smiled reassuringly and kissed him softly on the cheek as he wrapped his arms around her, pulling her into a much-needed hug.
"I'm so sorry, Elena. I'm so sorry." He breathed out as she ran her fingers through his hair.
"Let's just go back to bed, okay?" She gently pulled out of his embrace and grabbed his hand, leading him across the room. She quickly crawled under the blankets, and he climbed in next to her, lying on his back, staring up at the ceiling.
"I love you, Elena. Please, I know I have no right to ask but, please, don't leave. I, I need you." He whispered nervously after a few minutes of silence. He turned his head to the side to look over at her and let out a shaky deep breath. She smiled and soothingly ran her fingers down the side of his face, "I'm not going anywhere, I promise."
She slid over to him and laid her head on his chest, resting her arm across his belly, and closed her eyes. He wrapped his arm around her waist and held her tight against his body, still staring up at the ceiling, thinking about everything that had just happened. He let out a long sigh and tried to close his eyes, "I'm sorry." He whispered once more before kissing the top of her head and drifting off to sleep.
Katherine was lurking in the shadows of the bedroom with tears in her eyes. She quietly vamped across the room to his side and lightly traced her fingers down his chest. His eyebrows scrunched together, and he groaned as he tightened his grip around Elena. Katherine slowly leaned down and pressed her lips softly against his forehead, "I didn't mean to hurt you, always remember that." She whispered into his ear before disappearing out of the room. Damon opened his eyes as soon as he heard the front door close and let out a deep breath to calm his nerves. He glanced down at Elena with tears in his eyes, squeezed her tightly against his body and rested his head on top of hers. His body was slightly shaking from anxiety and tears were streaming down his cheeks into her hair. Elena tiredly opened her eyes when she heard him quietly sobbing and tenderly ran her hand over his chest, hugged him tighter, and nuzzled her head into the crook of his neck, "It's ok Damon. I love you." She cooed as she trailed feathery kisses wherever she could reach. He took a shaky deep breath and nodded his head, digging his fingers into her side to hold her as close to him as possible, he never felt so vulnerable yet reassured at the same time, "Thank you."
