Chapter 7
Elena
I can't believe how hard this bitch is trying for Damon's attention. But if he wasn't interested then why doesn't he just tell her to fuck off? I sip on my water listening to their conversation.
"Want to dance? You know we move so well together." Katherine says winking at Damon.
"Nope. I'm good." He says shaking his head.
"Come on baby. Just for old times' sake. You know you want to." She says batting her eyelashes.
The way she's doing that with her 50 coats of mascara I swear she applied makes it look like she's got shit in her eyes. Why don't you use those overly made-up lashes and fly your ass out of here? I think to myself, and I laugh out loud at my own line and that has their attention on me.
"Something funny?" Katherine asks placing her hand on her hip.
I shake my head and try to stifle another laugh that wants to bubble out of me. I clear my throat. "Nope. Nothing."
Katherine looks back at Damon who's still looking at me with a smirk. He raises his brow and I swear for a minute he heard my internal dialogue. "Don't tell me you came with her," Katherine says wrinkling her nose.
Damon looks back at her. "What difference does it make Kat?"
"What difference?" she asks aghast. "You know it's supposed to be you and I, Damon."
"That's where you're wrong Kat." He says her name like it tastes bad. "It hasn't been you and I for a couple of months now and it won't be you and I ever again." He gently pushes her aside and reaches for my hand looking back at Katherine. "Now if you'll excuse me and politely fuck off."
Katherine gasps and makes a growling noise. She stomps away from us.
Damon runs his hand up my arm, then places it on the small of my back. "Sorry about that."
I shake my head. "Not your fault."
"Still. She just doesn't take a fucking hint."
I nod my head like I know even though I really don't. I only know what I've heard from others and when Damon made that comment about her cheating.
"Want to dance again?" he asks flicking his chin to the dance floor.
"Definitely," I say grinning. This is the most fun I've had in forever. I've never been to a club before. Only attending school dances in the past.
We make our way back to our group of friends. Caroline and Tyler are getting hot and heavy right now. I look at Damon and raise my brow. He laughs and shakes his head pulling me back in his arms. We dance for a few minutes slowly moving closer. I wonder if it's a little awkward now because of Katherine.
'Stay with Me' by Sam Smith comes on and Damon's gaze pins me. He slowly smiles pulling me closer to him. We're dancing slowly moving our hips together. He pulls me into him more and my breasts are pushed against his chest. He leans down and moves my hair behind my ear. His lips graze my ear.
He starts to quietly sing along to the lyrics. His voice coming out as smooth as molasses.
"Why am I so emotional
No, it's not a good look, gain some self-control
Deep down I know this never works
But you could lay with me
So, it doesn't hurt"
I pull my head back and smile widely at him as he sings along with the chorus. He slides his hands down my back, moving them under my shirt. His hands slide up the bare skin of my sides and his thumbs graze the sides of my breasts leaving a trail of fire making me shiver. His left hand stays in place, his thumb caressing me and his right hand moves back down the center of my back. He leans down, his lips brushing along the bare skin of my shoulder and up to my neck. His right hand continues its path downwards and lands on my butt. He presses me into him more and I can feel his erection pushing into my stomach. He bends his knees and grinds his hips into me.
The song changes but I'm no longer listening to the music. I have never been this close to another man before. He tips me back some and places a kiss just below my ear. With my left hand, I firmly grip his arm and my right hand makes its way up to his hair. I run my fingers through it and he groans into my neck pressing lingering kisses there. His erection grinding into my center. My eyes rolling into the back of my head. A moan slips out on its own accord.
Damon
She fucking moaned. And if it's not the greatest fucking sound in the world. I grip her ass harder and continue grinding into her. I swear I can feel the heat from her center through our layers of clothing. I kiss my way down to her collarbone and suck. Gently nipping it. Another moan slips out of her mouth as I move down to her cleavage. My lips trailing across them and I groan as she grinds into me again. My left hand moves a little lower and over. I massage the bottom of her breast.
I remove my hand and gently grip her neck under her hair. My thumb trails along her jaw and she stares at me from under her thick dark lashes. Her eyes are a dark golden-brown color tonight. Her pupils dilated. I swipe my thumb along her bottom lip and lean down kissing it gently. I nip it and lightly suck it into my mouth. She whimpers and I pull back looking into her eyes. She closes her eyes and I kiss her fully on the mouth. Our lips moving in sync. She moans and I take the opportunity to massage her tongue with mine. Fuck she tastes good. Her mouth is hot and wet. And oh, so delicious. She tastes like fucking strawberries. I groan into the kiss.
A loud cough and someone clearing their throat has us pulling apart. I come out of my dazed-like state to see our group of friends standing there. Watching us. I roll my eyes. Fucking cockblockers.
"It's almost 1," Caroline says laughing. She looks at Elena. "Having fun?"
Elena ducks her head and groans. She looks back up at Caroline running her hand through her hair. "Shut up." Everyone laughs and I can't help but join in. That earns me a glare from Elena. And fuck me. I never want to be on the receiving end of that again.
I clear my throat and whisper a sorry in her ear. She shakes her head but laughs. And if that doesn't make me want to push my chest out proudly. I did that. I made her laugh.
"Are we ready?" Matt asks pulling Rebekah into his side, wrapping his arm around her waist.
I nod my head. "Yeah, let's get out of here."
We head over to the booth so that Bonnie and Rebekah can grab their jackets and then we head out the door.
We walk over to our vehicles and I unlock my car with the key fob. I open the passenger door for Elena and she quietly says thank you. I make my way over to the driver's side and hop in starting it. I wait for Matt to pull out and Bonnie hops in the back of my car. "I'm so not riding with the couples. Singles it is." I glance a peek at Elena who's looking down at her phone ignoring Bonnie. I cough and back out of my spot following behind Matt.
Elena
What the fuck was that? I have never in my life acted like that before and truthfully the fact that I was so comfortable with it scares the shit out of me. And when Bonnie made the comment about all of us being single. Ugh. I have never made out with someone that wasn't my boyfriend. Actually, I've never made out with someone period. Kisses yes, but not full-on grinding. And Bonnie was right. We are all single. Does that mean this is the kind of thing Damon does all the time? Does he live up to his name? I don't know if I want to find out.
I'm quiet the entire ride, posting a couple of new pics to Instagram. We come to a stop and I look up to see us in the driveway of a one-story brick house. Everyone climbs out of the vehicles and I follow Bonnie and Damon into the house. It is a nice house. Clean too. Out of habit, I take off my booties at the front door. I follow the group into an open space. You can see clear into the living room from the kitchen.
Caroline opens the fridge offering everyone drinks. I take a bottle of tea. I place my phone down on the counter and slip off my jacket; hooking it on the back of the chair.
"Parent's working?" I ask looking around.
Caroline shakes her head. "Well, sort of. They're both doctors and are working in a clinic in South America."
"So, you live here alone?" The shock must be evident on my face.
"Well, I am 18. Besides who wouldn't love having their own house?"
"Lucky is what you are," Bonnie says coming up next to me. "Bring something to wear?"
I shake my head. "I don't wear pajamas."
The guys all turn around and look at me. Damon asks; "never?"
I laugh. "I don't sleep naked. I wear my dad's old shirts." He nods his head knowingly.
"I have something you can wear," Caroline says heading out of the kitchen. "Follow me bitches."
I shake my head but follow them anyways. We enter her master bedroom and she pulls out a pair of black soffee shorts and a white tank top. "Go ahead" she says handing them to me.
"Thanks," I say to her. The girls start to change, and I follow suit. I take off my skirt and pull the shorts on over my black thong. I untie my shirt and turn around to face the wall. I take off my shirt quickly slipping on the tank.
We head back into the kitchen and grab our drinks. "What do you all want to do?" Caroline asks heading back into the living room.
Bonnie flops down onto the couch and I sit on the floor. Damon comes over and sits down next to me. He leans back propping his hands behind him. Everyone else saddles up on the couch and floor too.
"How about never have I ever?" Bonnie asks.
Everyone but me agrees. I groan instead. I hate this game because I never do anything.
"You know the rules, Elena?" Caroline asks handing out bottles of Pepsi for us to use.
I nod my head.
"Ok. I'll go first," Bonnie says. "Never have I ever sent a dirty text to the wrong person."
Everyone but Rebekah and I drink.
"Never have I ever made out with someone in public," Caroline says looking at me.
I laugh and everyone drinks.
"Never have I ever had sex in the water?"
The three guys and Caroline drinks. I raise my brow at her.
"Never have I ever lived in a foreign country."
Caroline and I drink.
"Okay, my turn," Matt says. "Never have I ever had sex in someone else's house."
Everyone but me takes a drink. And everyone looks at me. I sit there. Happily. And grin.
"You have to drink if you've had sex at your boyfriend's house," Caroline says showing me her bottle.
I nod my head. "I know. I heard Matt."
"Okay," Caroline says slowly.
Everyone still waits. Wait for as long as you want. I'm a virgin.
"Next?" I ask trying to get past the awkwardness.
"No," Caroline says. "Ohhhh...no way. Seriously?"
"Next," I say again blushing furiously. I duck my head.
"Oh no. We're waiting for an explanation." She says to me.
I shake my head. "No explanation necessary." I rub my hot cheeks. I swear they're on fire.
I absolutely refuse to look at Damon. Nope. Not looking at him, but I can feel him staring.
