by Mariah April May

Hi Everyone.

I hope you're all being very safe and are all healthy. I am doing good too. I have been very busy with my jobs. I work like 80 hours a week so I have got enough time to catch nap and eat. I don't have time at all for writing anymore and makes me very sad sometimes. I do wish I'd write. One of my stories is still in progress, and even though it was complete, before I started posting it, I had an issue with my computer and all the files got erased, and now I would write it again if I had time enough. But I sincerely apologize to everyone was following that story.

So to make amends, I am reposting this story. Again, this is the original version. It is unformatted, and have so many mistakes that I can't even start right now. I wrote this when I was 16 and posted it two years later, out of boredom, I am not much of fan of this at all, but here goes nothing. I wouldn't even ask reviews for it as I mentioned, this is my least favorite story. Also, all the chapters are posted in one go, as I had this document saved, I don't have time to like post it separately.

I'd urge you all to stay safe and happy, I know this is a tough time but we'll be able to overcome this, stronger than ever, and we'll soon be back to our lives. Aren't we the strongest generation, like, it seems we have seen everything now? Stay strong DE FAM!

You can email me anytime at mayconstantzo at gmail dot com

(I would even appreciate Netflix suggestions :P)

P.S: Please don't make fun of me lol.

P.P.S: All my friends, Bonnie, Carol, Vidhi, Zoe and everyone else, I remember you all and miss you.

Title: The Jealous Ex-Boyfriend

Summary:

Damon Salvatore has Elena Gilbert wrapped around his finger. She would do anything for him. When in a college party she finds him flirting with a girl she confronts him about it. Damon, sure of the fact that Elena will never leave him, admits it and to her horror breaks up with her just to show her who is the boss in their relationship. Unfortunately for him, Stefan Salvatore doesn't approve of his brother's behavior to his lifelong best friend and decides to teach him a lesson.

All human!

I don't own any of characters ofc! :P

"I just can't believe he would admit that. right on my face…" she said while sniffing again.

Caroline patted her back. Stefan gulped as he wiped her tears. Elena sniffed again as more tears rolled down her cheeks.

"Stop crying for that son of …I am sorry Stefan! but your brother is a dick." she said as she glared at him as if it was his fault.

"You know. I still can't just believe it. I mean I know he loves her. And.." Stefan was cut off in mid-sentence by Caroline "Nobody treats someone they love the way he treated her…insulted her right in front of everyone because he knows she will never leave his. He knows she is pathetic. she will run to him the moment he shows a hint of remorse"

"Care! Don't be so mean to her" Bonnie interjected.

"I am not being mean. I am just being realistic … They have been together for what? five years now. I will admit he loves her but he treats her like shit …It's happened in past .and each time she forgives him …stop crying now! you brought this on yourself. "Caroline said.

Elena hid her face in her hands.

"I …I just love him" she replied in extremely sad tone.

Stefan looked at his best friend. Suddenly, her phone buzzed. She immediately opened her purse and grabbed her phone. She opened the text she just received with restlessness and anxiety visible in her eyes. Stefan smiled sadly at her desperateness.

Sorry. I was a bit drunk…see you tmrw after class-Damon

She sighed in relief and said "He says he is sorry ..oh thank God!"

"Really?"Caroline almost growled. "This is the apology you get after what he did..He breaks up and then he just decides to…unbreakup…like really?" She continued almost shrieking.

"I know ..I know…but Damon doesn't exactly apologizes …but it's his way of..you know remorse" Elena said.

"Care is right! Elena ..you just can't forgive him …just like that …"Bonnie replied clearly annoyed at how Elena was behaving.

"What do you think he will do ..? fall down on his knees and beg for forgiveness or sing a Justin Beiber Sorry song to me in the grill …he isn't that type" Elena replied harshly in an irritated tone.

"What if ...he does ..?" Stefan replied with a devilish smile.

Bonnie raised her eyebrows. Caroline smirked.

"Are you thinking what I am thinking?" Caroline asked Stefan with a huge grin planted on her face .

"oh yeah ! honey .." he replied with an evil smile.

"What the hell..are you two planning?" Elena asked .

"Tell you what..if it works me and Bonnie will have a threesome with you" Caroline said in almost a whisper to Stefan.

After an hour

"No! No!No!"Elena sheriked.

"Are you out of your freaking mind?" She continued.

"Oh come on! Elena..This will definitely work."Bonnie squeaked.

"You mean to say! That in order to show Damon, my boyfriend that he can't continue treating me like shit ..I show him just how it feels to be treated like shit by pretending to go out with his brother

..this doesn't even make sense…" Elena replied as she pushed past Bonnie to the kitchen counter.

Stefan followed her and held her hand. "Just hear me out ok?" he said.

Elena nodded.

"Remember that Asian exchange student who asked you out two years back?" Stefan asked.

"Yeah!"

"What did Damon do to him?" Stefan asked with a smirk.

"Threatened to kill him in his sleep if he came within 50 feet radius to me" she replied still unsure.

"that still doesn't make sense.." she continued .

"He will realize how stupid ,idiotic, egoistical fool he is to treat such a beautiful , sweet and companionate girl like you this way …or else Elena this relationship of yours is just toxic …dead end , finish.." he said .

"But pretend to go out with you…that's a little twisted ..." she said with a frown.

"I would offer Tyler ...then again ...I don't want my boyfriend's neck snapped …" Caroline said sweetly.

"Ok…fine ..! .. So how do we start?" Elena asked with an innocent yet devilish smile on her face.

Damon Salvatore,20, tall about 5'10" in height with a well built and toned physique. He stopped the car right outside "The Grill" where he picks up his girlfriend Elena Gilbert daily after her school.

He frowned at the thought of their fight yesterday or should he call it his outburst. It was good thing Elena was patient. No girl other than Elena Gilbert could tolerate his impulsive and dominative behavior.

He regretted everything he said yesterday. Again, blessed he was as Elena didn't expected any makeup gifts or apologies and was totally fine with his excuse for an apology .He loved her a lot , no doubt .But hated when people questioned him. It wasn't like he was ever going to cheat on her

.Occasional flirting ,yes but it's not like this was new. Elena was just ok with the way he was.

"Speaking of which..wasn't she late?" he asked himself .

This wasn't like her. He took out his phone from his jacket and called her. She didn't pick up the first time. He dialed again.

Call rejected

"What the actual fuck?" he growled as he dialed again. Something was not right. Elena never I repeat NEVER rejected his calls. Was she ok? Something must be seriously wrong. He dialed again for the fourth time.

"What?" A voice asked sharply.

"Where are you? I am here outside the Grill..come out already.." he replied in an annoyed tone.

"I am sorry..Are you under the impression that we are still together…last time I checked you broke up with me" She replied her tone as sharp as before.

Damon frowned.

"Lena! Really..? ..don't test my patience now..come out already ..I am so not in mood of games" he replied in a dark tone.

"Go to hell!" she said as she hung up.

"Wait..she hung up on me.." he thought.

He parked his car and hurriedly went inside "The Grill". His eyes scanned the bar for his girlfriend.

She wasn't here. He spotted Caroline. He walked toward her table.

"Where is she?" he asked.

"She? Who?" Caroline replied just as sharply as he asked her.

"Blonde! I am not in mood of your silly games..now I am gonna ask you nicely again where is Elena?" he asked again anger visible in his eyes.

Caroline smirked at his behavior. "Calm down Bitch! We haven't even started yet..." she thought.

"I don't know ...ok! she went home with Jer.." Caroline replied and got up.

As she walked away, Damon took out his cell and called Jeremy.

"Yo!"

"Don't do that…" Damon replied irritated.

"Any reason..You called ..?" the voice on the other side asked .

"Where is your sister?" Damon asked.

"She just went out with Stefan for a walk to park…why ...fight again..?"Jeremy asked.

"None of your business" Damon replied as he cancelled the call and stuffed his phone back in his pocket.

Relief washed over him. Stefan, his younger brother and his girlfriend's best friend.

Stefan always had his back. Maybe, he will calm her down and talk some sense into her.

"Boy! This time he really pissed her. Elena was pretty mad at him."He thought as he swiftly sat in his car and drove to the park. He better buy her some chocolates and of course, some other stupid shit that girls like.

As he parked his car, he couldn't help but smile at the thought of an enraged Elena .She actually looked pretty adorable whenever she got mad at him. He locked his car and started walking toward the entrance.

He smirked as he spotted Elena and Stefan talking to each other. He was just about to wave at them when he saw Stefan drawing closer to Elena.

"What is going on here?" he thought.

He noticed Stefan holding her one hand, their fingers entwined. He drew closer to her, his other hand now on her cheek.

Stefan yanks her against him with his hand that was touching her cheek before and bends his head to kiss her on lips.

Something exploded in his mind. He felt his veins burst. "This could not be happening"

Ok! So..Everyone who doesn't like the idea of story hush hush..go away don't read anymore…I promise a happy ending. Please..Don't be mean to me in reviews…

And yeah review please!

The Jealous Ex Boyfriend

Chapter 2

Disclaimer: It's quite obvious that I don't own any TVD or TO character…:P

3 Hours ago

Caroline rushed into her house along with Stefan and Elena. She threw her bag on the couch and went into her mother's room.

"Leave it to Care…to consider everything a project" Elena murmured.

"Yes…and so far this is my favorite project…" Caroline replied while coming out of room with two pair of walkie talkies belonging to her mother, the sheriff.

"Caroline …that is police property put it back" her mother almost growled as she came out of kitchen.

"Oops…forgot she was at home "Caroline replied sheepishly.

"Mum..We need this for a project" she continued while beaming.

"Liz...it's nothing big…it's just.." Stefan said.

"We need to teach Damon a lesson …he is such a jerk … he is always making Lena cry ..this is for project Make Damon Salvatore cry and beg on his knees or in short MDSCBK…"Caroline wasn't even finished when Liz stopped her .

"Damon as in Stefan's brother…"she asked .

"Do we another jerk Damon in town?" Caroline replied in an annoyed tone.

"Sure, no explanations required, teach him a lesson ..Don't stop until he grovels …you have my permission and blessings …"Liz replied as she went back to kitchen .

Caroline giggled at her mother's reaction. Damon Salvatore had always been a troublemaker and his uncanny ability of not leaving a trace of his crime had always been a headache for sheriff. No high profile crime just a bunch of street fights, high speed driving and occasional drinking.

"I can't believe that I am saying this but make his life as miserable as possible" Liz shouted from the other room.

"My dad might have some Bluetooth earpieces" Bonnie said as she entered her house. She dropped her bag at the table and went to her father's study.

"Hey!"Her dad greeted, while reading a book.

"Hey! I need a minute can we talk?" she asked with a smile.

"Sure…" Her dad replied as he looked at her.

"I need some Bluetooth earpiece ...two or three would be nice…I thought you might have some" she asked.

"Yeah..I do..what do you need em for ….?" Her dad asked as he got up and walked to armoire

nearby the study table.

"just some stuff ..we have a project uhh…Caroline's project ..Project MDSCBK" Bonnie replied nervously.

"you mean Make Damon Salvatore cry and beg on his knees.."her dad replied with a grin.

"How? How do you know that.."She asked .

"Liz.." he replied with a smirk.

"you are ok with it right?" she asked unsure of her father's response ,aware of her father's friendship with Mr. Giuseppe Salvatore. "You know he is very mean to Elena ...and we are just doing this to teach him a lesson …Elena loves him and he loves her but he treats her like shit…and"

"Bonnie …I didn't ask for any explanations…frankly speaking the kid had it coming anyway…he is now Caroline Forbes target victim …" her dad replied with slight smirk.

"You have no idea what Care have planned for him…he is gonna have the most miserable week of his life" Bonnie replied.

"To be honest..I am kinda looking forward to it...after what he did to my car.. "her dad replied sheepishly.

"You are still not over the fact that he broke your car's windshield?" Bonnie asked with a smirk.

"hey..you don't touch a man's car and his girl…those are off limits" her dad replied.

"then you are in for a treat …"Bonnie said .

"He just left, he says he is going to the "Grill" to pick Lena" Enzo texted.

"HE IS COMING…ACTION STATION! ACTION STATION!" Caroline shouted.

"Relax care…"Tyler said while patting her back.

"I can't relax …everything has to be perfect if we want to show that son of bitch who is the boss here.." Caroline replied as she texted Jeremy.

"If he calls , I will tell him Lena is at park with Stefan..got it care…" Jeremy texted back.

She picked up her walkie talkie .

"Bonnie,Over"

"What?" a voice from the other side came.

"Where are you?,Over" Caroline asked.

"Can't I just call you..this thing is ridicules" Bonnie's voice boomed.

"No,Over"

"Fine..I am trailing Damon ,undetected as per your command." Bonnie replied.

"He just parked and he is now entering" she continued.

"Tyler…go!" Caroline pushed Tyler and sat on her usual seat, pretending to be lost in thought and have lunch.

She saw him almost sprinting toward her.

"Where is she?" he growled.

"She ..?Who?" Caroline answered.

She saw Tyler from a distance , almost gasping as Damon came closer to her anger now visible in his eyes.

"Blonde! I am not in mood of your silly games now I am gonna ask you nicely again where is Elena" he snarled.

"I don't know OK…she went home with Jer" Caroline replied.

She watched as Damon left.

Tyler rushed toward her " Are you Ok?" he asked with concern fill eyes. "yeah ..yeah sure!" she said as she picked up her phone which was buzzing. "Jer!"

"He called…I told him exactly what you told me to?" Jeremy said.

"Excellent.." Caroline replied with evil smirk.

"Care..I am not kissing Stef …this is ridiculous …no" she growled.

"Lena…Don't ruin it for us …we worked very hard on this..besides its just a …friendship kiss" Caroline growled from the other side of phone.

"Friendship kiss…twisted …" Stefan said as he narrowed his eyes.

"it will be awkward.."Elena said now almost begging.

"ouch! Jeez! I don't wanna kiss you either.." Stefan said as he pushed her.

"listen you two…if you don't do what I say I will grill you both and feed you to mountain lions" Caroline shouted through phone.

"Ok…Ok...let's get this over with..and make your brother crazy jealous" Elena replied as she sat on a bench.

"Stef! Hide her ear piece …." Caroline ordered.

"yes ma'am !" Stefan said as ran his fingers through Elena's soft hair and to curtain it over her ear

Elena was nervous. Besides from Matt, her ex boyfriend and Damon, She never kissed anyone. Damon had been the love of her life .She loved him more than anything, but her friends were right she didn't deserve to be treated like this.

"He is HERE" she heard Caroline shriek . She rubbed her ear.

"Don't shout you bitch … you will get me Deaf" she murmured loud enough for Caroline to here. " sorry"

"Now Stefan can you hear me?" She asked.

Stefan rubbed his ear.

"Care..Sweetheart …the whole park can hear you … slow down…" he replied sweetly as he pretended to gaze at Elena.

"Ok ..now look at Elena as if you are looking at pizza"

"aha…!" he said as he smiled at her.

"Elena laugh!"Caroline ordered.

"He is going closer" Elena heard Bonnie on the other line with Caroline.

"Stefan hold Elena's hand" Caroline ordered.

"Ok" Stefan replied as he took Elena's hand .

"Elena…smile "Caroline ordered.

Elena smiled.

"Closer Stefan…lean in…"Caroline ordered.

"umm.." he said .

"One hand on her cheek" Caroline said.

"Oh my God this is so awkward" Elena murmured through her teeth still a constant smile plastered on her face.

"Stefan hand down to her waist" Caroline ordered.

"can't we just get it over with?" Stefan said as his hand grazed down to her back .Still with a constant smile and a dazed look,fake of course.

"Someone is impatient" Caroline commented.

"STFU" Stefan said as he drew closer.

"He is looking" Elena heard Bonnie say in a singsong tone.

She was half way to cancel this plan. When Caroline almost shrieked "drag her to yourself and kiss her NOW"

As per order, Stefan dragged her ,their lips brushed against each other. Elena's mouth shut tight.

Stefan felt a strange fire rise to his chest .

"You fucking Bastard…!" He heard Damon growl.

Thank you so much for following ,favoriting and reviewing...

Please please review.. that too positive !

The Jealous Ex Boyfriend

Chapter 3

Disclaimer: I don't own any characters obviously :P

"You fucking bastard" Damon growled.

"Damon!" Stefan gasped.

"How dare you? HOW FUCKING DARE YOU?" he almost shouted as he moved closer. Anger visible in his eyes.

He sprinted toward his brother , ready to beat the living hell out of him. Elena came forward, blocking him.

"Elena! Move" He said . Rage visible in his eyes.

"No…!" she said in cold tone.

"He kissed you" Damon said in dark tone.

"So?" she replied just as cold as before.

"So…This is unacceptable ….Nobody touches my girlfriend" he whispered darkly looking directly

in her eyes.

"I AM NOT YOUR GIRLFRIEND…you broke up with me in front of all your classmates and my friends…you said it was over .." she shouted.

"oh!" he said now with a smirk.

"I see where this is going…you are still mad at what I did yesterday…I already apologized didn't I?"

He said .

"ok..I am sorry for everything…now get in the car" he said " and I will deal with you when you come back home "he continued as he looked at Stefan over Elena's shoulder.

"Elena..! say no" she heard Caroline murmur in her ear (earpiece).

"Nope! I am not going anywhere with you…you broke up with me yesterday …I am done with you…" Elena replied .

Damon stood their thunderstruck.

"You can't break up with me…" he said still shocked.

"oh…I just did" she said with a slight smirk.

"Stef! Can you drop me home…" she asked as she turned around to an amused Stefan.

"Sure.."

As she brushed past Damon, he held her wrist and yanked her closer to him.

"Don't do this.." he whispered.

"Let go of me" she said as she pushed him away.

Stefan rushed to her, holding her hand and walked out of park leaving a thunderstruck Damon standing still .

"What just happened?" he thought.

"Come on Klaus! Please…Damon will definitely come to you and talk about all this …you just need to tell us what's going on in that brainless head of his .." Caroline almost begged the attractive, dirty blonde curly haired guy.

"Care! Love as much as I will love to help you out ..he is my best friend…ultimately I am on his side…" Klaus replied with eyebrows raised .

"but his side is the wrong side…we are just helping him …Elena is a sweetheart..she tolerates all his non sense but how long…eventually she will get tired and will dump his ass ..and everyone knows if its not Elena for Damon than its no one …" she continued .

"I agree , but nope ..and I am even going to tell him about this plan of yours…he is my best friend my loyalties are to him…" Klaus replied as he got up to leave.

"I will go on a date with you…" Caroline said.

Klaus halted. Really , he had been bugging this girl to go out with him for like 2 years and all he needed to do was spy on his best friend.

"what about Tyler, you know your boyfriend "he said still not turning ,how he hated that guy.

"We broke up a week ago…I just didn't get a chance to tell my friends yet" Caroline said finally admitting defeat.

Klaus turned around with a smirk.

"throw in a kiss and I will sniff his underwear for you" he said .

"eww…! Please…don't do that ..Just let me know whats going on that evil head of his" she said .

"Deal" he replied.

"He looked so upset" Elena said as she sat down on couch.

"Well…that was the plan" Stefan replied as he sat opposite to her.

"Why are we doing this..?" she said now almost on verge of tears.

"Hey…hey none of that….okay…we just want him to realize that you're an awesome person and

he will be an idiot to lose you…funny how we never realize the true worth of someone until we lose them" he said as he stood up and sat closer to her.

Door burst open and Caroline and Klaus entered.

"Hey Lena…Excellent performance by the way" Caroline said as she rushed to Elena.

Elena side hugged her as she eyed Klaus.

"What exactly is he doing in my house?" she said.

"Well…Klaus is on our side…" Caroline replied.

Caroline's phone buzzed.

"yeah! Bonnie…oh he is at the grill…aha …OK I will send Klaus…yeah …sure go home now ...your duty is over for tonight…bye" she said as stuffed her phone back in purse.

"you had Bonnie trail Damon all day…" Klaus asked shocked.

"Well..as I said I am pretty serious about this project" Caroline replied with a smile.

"Creepy….hot" Klaus replied clearly impressed by her dedication.

"Go…Damon is at the grill….and Don't forget what I told you to tell him…" she said .

"sure, Love..I will call you at night... " he said with a wink.

"Please..Danni … one last shot…" Damon asked his bartender friend.

"dude...fine last shot then you get your ass outta here" Danni replied.

"What's up..Buttercup?" Damon heard Klaus

"don't do that…" he said.

"so are we celebrating or mourning?"Klaus asked as he sat next to Damon.

"I don't know …Elena broke up with me…you tell..should I celebrate as I finally got out of a 5 year long relationship or should I mourn that I finally lost the only person that cared about me and my only shot at a commitment" he said as he drank his last shot.

"You guys break up twenty times a day…and at the end of the day you guys are back together what's the big deal this time…" Klaus said as he ordered a drink.

"No…I breakup with her twenty times a day and she clings on….but this time she broke up with

me…she told me it was over and to top it off she let my brother kiss her…breakup ..I'm ok with that …I can easily get back with her again …what I am not ok is …that she let him kiss her….no one touches my car, my hair and my girlfriend…especially my girlfriend"he snarled

"oooo! I always knew Stefan likes her.." Klaus said .

"you did…why didn't you tell me …I gotta kill him now…how dare he...he is not allowed to like her.."Damon said as he got up.

"Calm down mate…sit …I know for sure Elena doesn't love him…she loves you everyone can see that ..but if Stefan likes her …this will be the perfect time for him to pounce and sweep the girl off her feet" Klaus whispered to him .

"Think about it…no offense but you are horrible to Elena …and Elena is perfect..she is beautiful..she is kind …she is loving …and currently single cuz you were stupid enough to break

up with her in front of whole campus ..she is the kinda girl you can take home to , so she can meet your parents, she is the kind of girl any guy would want to settle down with …no one can be immune to the kind of attraction she holds" Klaus stopped as he saw Damon eyes narrowed.

"you are not in love with my girlfriend …are you?because otherwise .."he asked doubtfully.

"of course not…she is like a sister to me" Klaus replied .

"what are you trying to tell" Damon asked now comfortable.

"Elena is perfect…why wouldn't Stefan wanna be with her…he already kissed her…Stefan had

been her best friend before you guys were together..they will be perfect together come to think of it …do you still love her?" he asked at the end.

"obviously …I love her.." Damon replied.

"so..you should be threatened…because if Stefan proves to Elena that she is better off with

him…you will lose her forever…start working on getting her back…"Klaus said

Damon nodded.

"I get it…now excuse me while I go break my little brother's legs for kissing my girlfriend."

He said as he got up.

"no..none of that…You beat him up…Elena will be mad …he will get all the sympathy and you will lose the girl…"Klaus said proud of how he came up with the explanation.

"but he kissed my girlfriend… fine I won't kill him... yet …but mark my words..Revenge will be taken…"

Damon said

"Sure mate…now let's get you home" Klaus said as he supported a drunk Damon.

As he pushed an almost passed out Damon into his bed , Klaus couldn't help but smile at Caroline's plan.

That girl would go to any length for her friends, creepy amount of length.

"Elena" Damon murmured.

"I am really really really sorry …don't leave me" he said as he pulled Klaus toward him.

"What the fuck…Damon let go of me …it's me.. Nik…" Klaus said as he tried to brush Damon's hands away from him.

Unfortunately for him, Damon pulled him to his bed and hovered over him . "I am so sorry baby doll…I love you Elena…" he said as he drew closer.

"What the fuck man…let go of me.. ...Stefan!HELP" he said as he pushed Damon away and ran out of his room .

"What happened?" A concerned Stefan asked .

"Get him back with Elena fast …that horny son of bitch was gonna rape me thinking I was Elena…"Klaus replied almost in a women like voice.

Stefan burst out laughing.

Oh…goodness…this is going to get interesting .He thought .An image of him kissing Elena flashed before his eyes. His heart skipped a beat.

He brushed that feeling again.

No..he should never think about it…Elena was in love with his brother and his brother loved that girl more than life ,he would never think about it again.

So that's it for today….

Please review…..

The Jealous Ex Boyfriend

Chapter 4

"Elena" he murmured as he woke up.

Worst Hangover Ever. He thought as he opened his eyes. Relationships had never been perfect for him , even in case of a girl as wonderful as Elena was. Stefan's best friend caught his eye the moment he saw her . It was about six years ago, when he moved from Pasadena to Mystic falls to live with his father, when his mother remarried.

"Start working on posters … I will do all the lab work ...we will Ace this as usual .." the brunette said in a cheery tone.

"I don't know Matt already started his project…we only have a week to finish our science project…I might have to cut back on football practice…" His thirteen year old brother Stefan replied with a frown.

"oh..no but you have a football tournament coming up ..you can't do that" she replied.

"I have to ...otherwise we will fail and dad will kill me …" Stefan replied.

"besides …we can't win anyway …those guys on our opponent team are sooo….huge…"he

continued in a sad tone.

"Don't be so pessimistic…you know what they say Optimism is the faith that leads you to achievement" she replied while hitting his arm playfully.

"Could you two be anymore louder …some of us are trying to sleep here?" Damon said aloud in a harsh tone.

"uhh..Lena…this is …" Stefan said.

"Skip the intro, you nerd …and keep your voices down…" Damon continued.

"hey… you can't talk to him like this" the brunette said.

"oh I just did…" he replied with a smirk.

"What's your problem..you douche..." she asked with hands on her hips.

"I AM TRYING TO SLEEP" he growled.

"It's almost 12 , nobody sleeps at this time you lazy oaf …" she said.

How dare her…Boys her age wouldn't dare cross him and here she was a thirteen year old girl talking back to him. He saw a ball touching his foot. Before she knew it , he kicked that ball with full force that went straight hitting the girl's stomach. She immediately fell on her knees and started crying. Stefan rushed to her .

"Damon…what on earth..Lena…you ok?" he asked as he too bent down.

"What the hell is going on here?" Damon heard his father.

"I..I.." words couldn't escape his mouth.

"Elena..honey are you okay?" his father asked the girl who was sobbing now.

"Did Damon did this to you..?"his father asked her as he tried to hold her.

Ok .That was it. Once, she tell on him, he knew his father will punish him severely, if there was one thing his father hated, it was undisciplined child.

"No…I just tripped..."she said between her sobs.

"oh..! Are you okay sweetheart or do you need me to take you home?" his father asked again with somewhat relief.

"Yes!" she replied as she rubbed her eyes with her palms to wipe off tears.

"ok…just let me get my jacket…I will drive you home" he saw his father reply sweetly to the brunette girl named Elena.

"Thank you" he heard Stefan whisper in her ear.

She didn't even look at the dark haired boy who suddenly felt sorry for his actions.

"No, not love at first sight. No…you don't fall in love when you are fourteen…you fall in love when your fifteen" Damon grinned at his own thought as he rose up and went to washroom. This terrible headache was killing him. He decided to take a hot shower to soothe it.

"Well! Look who it is?…Gilbert and her lunch money" he heard Mason .He turned around and saw Elena just a few steps away from him almost on verge of tears.

"Really ..Mason! Really …you are gonna steal money from kids now…" he asked as he stepped toward them.

"oh come on Man…!let me have some fun here.."Mason almost begged.

"Leave her alone …aren't you too old for this shit …seriously" Damon said narrowing his eyes as he dragged Mason away.

"Don't mess around with the Gilbert girl…"he warned Mason as they went toward Cafeteria.

"You know her?" Mason asked .

"She is best buds with my baby bro …" he replied .

He laughed at his over protectiveness as he wrapped a towel around his waist . He walked out of washroom and walked straight to his closet, picking out a shirt Elena loved on him. Jeez, now he sounds like a teenage girl.

He slipped on his shirt on and started buttoning without looking. His stomach growled.

"Oh...I really need to eat something"

"Stef!" Damon heard a feminine voice coming from downstairs. Elena's voice.

She turned around and came face to face with the fourteen year old dark haired boy inches away from her. A light squeak escaped her lips as she stepped backwards.

"He isn't home yet…" Damon said with a chuckle . "Sorry to scare you" he continued as he moved past her to kitchen.

"oh damn it …I forgot …he is suppose to do extra football practice" she said as she hit her forehead with her palm.

"he will be home in about …" he was cut off by Elena "one hour I know…" she said.

He raised his eyebrow.

"wow…you know him a lot…" he said in quite a cold tone .Stefan had friends who cared this much about him to memories his timetable .

"We have been friends from kindergarten …what do you expect?" she said with a chuckle as she unpacked her bag.

"you aren't going back home..?" he asked.

"My dad just dropped me here …I can't call him back to pick me up just to come back after an hour" she said as she shrugged.

"What are you doing?" she asked.

"Looking for something to eat…" he replied. " I hate frozen food." He continued.

"Where is Rosetta?" she inquired about their maid.

"Family emergency" he replied.

"umm…do you have eggs?" she asked.

"yeah… I guess" he replied.

"You are lucky here …Let me introduce myself .My name is Elena Gilbert and I make this best sandwiches ever" she said as he moved toward the kitchen counter.

"ah..I don't think that's a good idea…See you are twelve year old and I know your heart is in the right place but my dad will kill me if you burn my house to ground …" he said .

"Damon..! I am not twelve..I am thirteen and secondly I do it all the time for my little brother Jeremy and for your little brother Stefan" she said as she moved toward the fridge to search for her required items.

"Apparently you are no different from your brother too…Stef hates frozen food as well…" she said as she took out some eggs ,leftover chicken and onions.

"You go freshen up…" she said as she started chopping onions.

"Are you sure…you don't need my help?" he asked, a bit uncomfortable.

"out" she said .

20 minutes later

Elena came out with a tray and placed it on the huge dining table. "Presenting Elena Gilbert's Triple Decker Chicken Sandwich" she said imitating a male a voice. He chuckled as he sat down.

"I gotta admit…it looks good" he said as he eyed the sandwich.

"obviously…and it will taste good as well …Stefan and I invented this recipe …Jer,my brother thinks I should start sandwich shop…because I cook that good….I was even thinking to drop the

idea of pre med program and start working on my chef skills…what?...why are you looking at me as if I am crazy…" she stopped.

"Do you always talk this much…?" he said as he took a bite from his sandwich.

"I don't talk much..." she said with a slight blush.

"How is it?"she asked.

"umm…well ..its good…" he complemented.

"just like good ,good or very good good or like excellent good?" she asked.

"Do I smell Elena Gilbert's special Triple Decker Chicken Sandwich?" Stefan said as he entered living room throwing his bag on couch .

"No way…go take a shower first ..."Elena replied as she turned around.

"I reek ,don't I?" he asked.

"you think…" she replied in a sharp tone.

"Well…too bad ..we need to start working on the paper for our science project or we will fail the class..where is my sandwich?" he said as he went inside the kitchen.

"On the counter in the left" she said while she groaned.

She followed Stefan to kitchen . "Do you want me to make you another one?" she asked Damon, turning around.

"no..I am good" he said as he finished.

"Thank you" he said with a slight smile.

"Anytime" she smiled back as she went to kitchen.

The buzz of his phone brought him back to reality. He picked up his phone and entered the password.

"Dude you were so drunk last night (_)-Klaus"

"I couldn't be that drunk" he replied.

"you tried to kiss me hallucinating I was Lena (-_-)—Klaus"

"Holy shit…" he replied.

"I am losing my mind" he added.

"(_)

With love from Klaus"-Klaus

Ok .So now he was officially losing it. He really need to talk to Elena before things gets worse.

Eww…kissing Klaus..just eww.

Kissing…which reminded him…Stefan kissed Elena... Rage whistled through him. An image of them kissing flashed .He immediately shrugged that thought away . Elena loved him .They had been together for five freaking years. He knew it was Stefan's fault .He took advantage of her

when she was most vulnerable .He looked at the clock. It was almost eight, Stefan should have left by now. "Revenge time baby bro"

He marched in Stefan's organized room. The wooden floor is pale, yet full of texture. It is partially covered by rug. In an array of gloss and semi-gloss, shades of off-white cover the four of sections of the wall are covered by pictures. Pictures of mostly Stefan and Elena, Stefan and Caroline and Stefan with Elena and Caroline, the dream trio. He almost smirked at his thoughts. One side of the wall had a stand which was filled with Stefan's trophies and his certificates.

He grinned as he picked up a baseball bat from one corner and smashed his brother's football trophies moving next to his stereo and smashed it .Then he moved to his study table. "Ops..I am sorry baby bro I accidently spilled water on assignment THAT IS DUE TOMMOROW …" he said as he picked up the water filled jug from the side table and spilled it on his study table.

He moved toward curtains and pulled them down.

He walked toward his closet and threw everything out in sight.

"Perfect!" he said with a grin as he came out.

"Rosetta..Stefan said not to go to his room...he have some important stuff in there..so don't clean his room …in fact take an off for a couple of days…dad won't be back for a while" he said with a slight smirk.

"Are you sure…Mr. Salvatore…?" she asked suspiciously.

"yup" he replied hiding a grin.

Ok..this is a filler chapter …

The Jealous Ex Boyfriend

Chapter 5

She had been sitting in parking area for a while now waiting for her best friend to arrive .She barely slept last night owing to the events that occurred in previous days. Cold rain beat on the grass and trees , It took her to another rainy day about six years ago.

"you're early again" Damon said as she entered .

"I know…I need head start before Care and Stef comes" she said as she sat on floor and unpacked her bag.

"You're still stuck in that science project ..?" he asked.

"Nope…we are done with that …now we are working on a history project" she said as she pulled out a book.

"So you teamed up with lil Stef again…" he said clearly annoyed.

"Yup…we have been friends since like forever …we always work together" she said without looking up.

"but you know…I remember you …Stefan's older brother that came to visit on thanksgiving and summer vacations …." She added.

"You do…?" he asked as he got up and walked toward where she was sitting .

"Yup…! But you stopped coming here…three years back…" she said now looking at the raven haired boy standing in front of her.

"Well! I didn't like Mystic Falls much back then…" he said.

"My aunt told me that your mum took you with her …Why didn't she take Stef as well…?" she asked.

Damon raised his eyebrows.

"Nope…not talking about that …" he said as he started walking away.

"Okay ..Okay …I am sorry I shouldn't have asked that ….that's personal…I know I am sorry" she

said with concern in her voice.

He looked back.

"umm…Its okay…" he said. "so ..What are you working on?" he asked .

"The 60s… We have to portray that era …in form of a play or presentation or anything like that …with all the dresses and famous people and food and.."

"I get it …I get it" he said with a smirk .

"So..You live with your aunt?" he asked.

"Yes.." she replied as she wrote down some notes.

"What about your parents?" he asked.

"My dad is a doctor … he works in Richmond...So mostly he is away …while my mum…she died after giving birth to my brother…" she said.

"Oh…I am sorry …" he said .

She replied with mere smile.

"Sorry, we are late …. This one here took about two hours to get ready" Stefan shouted as he

came in along with a blonde girl.

Damon started walking away at their arrival; he headed over to couch and turned on TV.

"You scum bag …it only took about ten minutes max" the blonde girl replied sharply.

"She changed her outfit then she changed back to the dress she was wearing before … now tell me that's unfair.."Stefan said.

"That dress made me look fat" she replied.

"It's not the dress that made you look fat …you are FAT" Stefan replied testing her patience.

"Take that back "the blonde growled.

"For the love everything that is holy ….will you two please shut the hell up!" Elena almost shouted.

Damon snorted at Elena's sudden outburst.

"He started it.."Caroline said.

"One word and I am leaving.." Elena growled.

"but …"

"no , buts ….start working on that damn paper now" Elena added.

"I will be covering the fashion sense in that decade" Stefan said as he took the book from which Elena was taking notes.

"Noo!….that's my topic…" Caroline said .

"I called DIBS on it" Stefan said with an evil grin.

"Lena!…" Caroline said.

"Enough….that's it" Elena said as she stood up and walked out of living room.

"See what you did…"Caroline said as she glared at Stefan.

"Unbelievable" Damon muttered as he got up and followed the upset brunette.

"Elena!…" he called her.

She stopped instantly. She turned around. Definitely, not expecting him to come after her.

"Come back inside…I will deal with those Dorks.." he said .

Elena unsure what to answer followed him inside back to living room where Stefan and Caroline were still arguing.

"Listen up you spazoids…you do whatever Elena tells you to do …and if I hear one more extra word…I will rip off your cojones and boil them in oil…" he said in threatening tone.

Caroline eyes widened in fear while Stefan muttered something under his breath.

"Am I clear?" he said.

"Yes…"

"See that's how you shut them up" he said as he looked at an amused and scared Elena. He smirked as he walked again.

"Earth to Elena" she heard Caroline scream.

"Oh…Care…sorry …I barely slept last night…I think I dozed off." Elena said with a slight smile.

"We should get to class…"Elena said as she got up and started walking toward class with the blonde girl.

"So…I have some awesome plans for our project…I already texted Stef about it…and yes ...Klaus called yesterday …he said that son of bitch was very upset and that he misses you like hell and …Elena are you listening to me?" Caroline paused.

"Care…I think we should drop this plan ….It's just …I don't want to use Stef …he is my best

friend…this is wrong" she said with a slight frown.

"Lena…relax…it's just one week …please…just go with our plan this time …all these years

whenever I told you that Damon should be taught a lesson ...that for once you gotta tell him to stop bullying you around..you were like I can handle it …or its between us ,stay outta it …well look what that attitude got you into …now hush up and let the experts do their work" Caroline said as she sat down on her usual chair in class.

Elena also took her seat as well .

"Hey.." she heard Stefan as he sat next to her.

"Hey.." she said in low tone.

"Lena…are you still upset?

Before she could give reply their teacher entered .

"Good Morning Class"

"You look cheerful" Klaus said with a smirk as he spotted Damon.

"yes…!" Damon replied sipping his coffee.

"Let me guess…you smashed everything Stefan owned" Klaus replied.

"Yup.."

"No texts from Elena" Klaus said with a smirk.

"Dick"

"Apply cold water to burnt area" Klaus said with snort. "And by the way…will you be going to that theme dance this weekend…? Caroline is taking me …"

"Way to go…you are finally going to bang the blonde …and no I won't.. you know I hate those high school dance..I will just get Stefan to go with Lena…" He stopped thinking about what he just said.

"Suddenly, that thought isn't to appealing considering the events that occurred yesterday" Klaus said with a smirk.

"You have to rub it in my face …" Damon said with a dark look.

"It's my right to be hellish

I still get jealous" Klaus started singing a verse from Nick Jonas's famous "Jealous".

"Son of bitch…!" he said with slight smirk.

"I know Elena…whatever she did yesterday …she only did that to piss me off …Stefan and Elena

are platonic …yes..I am very mad at him still …but I know for sure that there is nothing between him and Elena" Damon continued.

"So …no plans to get back together?" Klaus asked. He had to get solid information for Caroline.

"nope ..Elena will come to me ..." he said .

It had been one year since Damon moved back with his father. He started developing friendship with Mason, Klaus, Butch and some other jocks .He went out with a few girls, nothing special just some casual dating.

Elena still used to come to Salvatore boarding house for projects or just simply spending time with his little brother. Damon started warming up to her and soon showed his true colors when he started flirting with her now and then. Instead of getting impressed like girls usually did, to his utter shock she started ignoring him. Soon, that innocent looking, brunette was the only thing he could think of.

"Stefan, call me when you are done with your practice ...we will go out watch a movie or something" she said to her best friend as they headed over to the large playground at the back of school.

"I can't…I have English assignment to finish" he said.

"I will do it for you…you already have football practice and Grand Calculus quiz next week…"

"Oh..Thank you so much Lena you are a life saver…I have already done some work on it …You will find it on my study table …finish it before I come back and we will go out …"Stefan said with a grin.

"Will Damon be home?" Elena asked narrowing her eyes.

"yup"

"Then I am not going …"

"Lena…"

"Stef…he is pervert…he says …stuff to me ..Dirty stuff …he flirts with me ..One minute he is all comprehensive and the next minute he is clingy …" she said with a groan.

"Trust me …he is just doing that to annoy you …" Stefan replied with a sigh.

"Fine…I will go but you better get home fast…" she mumbled.

After 30 minutes

Elena entered Salvatore Boarding house silently.

"Hello …Miss Elena" Rosetta greeted.

"Hey…" Elena greeted with a smile as she walked upstairs silently to Stefan's room.

She entered the well organized room and walked toward the study table. She took out some papers and started reading Stefan's rough draft of assignment. She walked toward Stefan's bed and sat on it in Indian style and started editing it.

"I should finish this fast before he notices I am here …Last thing I need is him flirting with me again …its not that he isn't hot…His appearance is more than appealing for some girls and for some boys too…and why am I thinking of him again …." She thought as she quickly wrote down .

"and wow…I was just thinking about you in shower.." Damon said with a smirk as he entered Stefan's room.

"not today Damon…"Elena muttered as she wrote down.

"aww…how cute! you're blushing.." he said as he came closer.

"Leave me alone" she said ,still not looking at him.

"oh come on….I know you want me" he said with an evil grin.

"Yes…! I want you …to leave" she finished as she looked up.

"Ouch…" he said as he sat down close to her.

"Why do you want me to leave?" he asked her .

Elena looked up again to meet his eyes. "because clearly I am uncomfortable around you" she answered in a matter-of-fact tone.

"Why are you uncomfortable around me?" he asked with a pout mockingly as he gets closer.

She tries to back off but was trapped between him and the headboard of the bed. She blushed furiously. He traps her with both of his arms on either side of her.

"Is it because you like me ?" he whispers in her ear.

She could feel her face red now.

"I love it when you blush…" he said genuinely as he moved closer kissing her full on lips .She closed her eyes and falls captive of the kiss.

She heard footsteps approaching, before she could push him away. She heard a scream.

"Not in my bed …" Stefan screamed.

"We just kissed…it's not what you think it is " Damon said with a frown, irritated by his moment ruined.

"Yes..exactly on my bed …and YOU…(looking at a thunderstruck Elena) you come with me( holding her wrist and dragging her with him) he said.

"Wait…" Damon said as he held Elena's other wrist.

"Since we kissed and you liked it …because I am damn good kisser does that mean I can take you out?" he asked hurriedly.

"No…she isn't going out with you she is my BEST FRIEND…she is off limits Damon…" Stefan shouted.

"What do you mean off limits…she obviously likes me …?" Damon said glaring at Stefan.

"Any girl Damon…not Lena…"Stefan said in a dark tone.

"Stefan..let go of her" Damon said .

"Guys…"Elena shouted. "Stef…enough with this over protective attitude..and Damon no ..I don't like you and I won't go out with you now let go of me you two …come on Stef" she said as she walked out with Stefan leaving an obviously pissed off Damon behind.

"Lena…" She heard Stefan call her , drifting her back to reality.

"Sorry…I just..." she said

"Dozed off..." Stefan completed with a smile.

"What do you wanna eat?" Stefan asked.

"Just salad…" she replied as she looked out of window.

They were at the Grill for their lunch. "what are you thinking about ?" Stefan asked with concerned filled voice.

"The first time Damon and I kissed…that too on your bed" she said with a smile.

Stefan smiled too. "I was totally freaked out …I thought you might be the only girl who would never give up to his charm …when I saw you kissing I was like oh no..." Stefan said.

"You so strongly opposed us dating" she said.

"Yes…I was scared that he will hurt you and he did …over and over again …I thought that eventually...he will change but I guess we were wrong…" he said with a sigh.

"That son of bitch…" Caroline muttered as she sat down .

"What?" Stefan asked.

"Klaus called ..he said Damon isn't going to make any effort to win Lena back …he said that Lena will come to him" Caroline said .

Stefan frowned. " Damon and his ego" he muttered.

"See ..that attitude Lena…we want to squash that ego of his …" Caroline said with venom in her voice.

"Stefan …Go, buy Elena some roses…" Caroline said.

"What?"

"Do what I say" Caroline said with a growl.

"Okay…" he said as he got up.

"I really don't think it's a good idea…" Elena said with a slight frown.

"Lena…" Caroline said with a warning in her tone.

Damon and Klaus entered the Grill. Damon eyes scanned for Elena; there she was in a corner sitting with her blonde friend Caroline. She was in deep conversation with a friend, smiling and laughing, totally enjoying her time.

He felt like burning, anger swirled like a red tide within him. Here he was thinking every second about her and there she was laughing and smiling as if their breakup didn't affect her at all. He felt his teeth clench as he sat on his usual seat, he noticed she was wearing plain black sleeveless round Neck Tank Top and denim skirt. Yup, Caroline must have made her wear that. He remembered way back, he specifically told Elena not to wear denim skirts in public, she looked really sexy in that and he hated when boys ogled her. Yes, she was eating his heart out right now.

"Elena look so hot today ..no?" Klaus asked with a smirk.

"don't you dare.." Damon growled.

"Look at that... little Stefan is here" Klaus said.

"Seriously dude…whose side are you on ?" Damon asked now annoyed .He saw Stefan enter…with wtf? red roses. He saw Elena and Caroline wave at him, a stupid smile plastered on

his face as Stefan walked toward them. Damon's hands automatically curling into fists at his sides, itching to swing out and put a dent on the table or the wall beside him , as he saw Stefan give roses to Elena. Platonic or not … She was his girl!.

He heard Klaus snort at his reaction.

"We are leaving" he said as he got up. Klaus followed him and looked just one last time winking at Caroline.

That's it for today …Please review and let me know but please no flames :P

Be nice

Thank you for reading, reviewing, favorting and following.

Take care.

The Jealous Ex Boyfriend

Chapter 6

As soon as Klaus and Damon exited, Caroline giggled. Stefan smirked at Caroline's reaction. They high fived. Elena eyed them. "Oh come on Lena…you have to admit he was pretty jealous…I could actually feel him burning inside" Caroline said.

Elena rolled her eyes.

Caroline's phone buzzed. She eagerly took out her phone from her bag and read the incoming text.

"Klaus says Damon will be at his place for awhile" Caroline informed them.

"ah..well …Lets go back to my place then … we can study for that Biology test next week…" Stefan offered.

"sure.."Caroline said as she rose up.

"Elena..you coming?" Stefan asked .

"Nope…I don't feel like going to your place today…" She replied.

"I am going home" Elena continued.

Caroline was about to say something but Stefan signaled her not to .

Boarding House

Stefan parked his car at his spot of driveway. Caroline was continuously talking about her college plans for next year. Stefan replied with occasional hems and nods. As they entered, Caroline asked " So when will your Dad be back?"

"In about awhile …he might take a month or two …this business trip is quite important…" Stefan answered absent mindedly as he searched for Rosetta, their housekeeper.

"Drink?" he asked Caroline.

"Sure…" she replied as she took off her jacket.

Stefan went to kitchen and walked toward fridge. There was note on the counter.

"Rosetta is on leave for a few days…There is a surprise for you in your room …XO XO—Damon"

"Oh no !" Stefan gasped.

"Not again…not again" he muttered as he ran toward his room.

"What happened?" he heard Caroline voice from behind.

He opened the door to his room . A mess welcomed him. "Cazzo!(Fuck)!figlio di puttana! (son of bitch)" he shouted in utter rage .Cursing in Italian meant something serious.

Caroline was right behind him. She gasped.

"Oh my Gosh" she said.

His room was completely destroyed. His trophies smashed, his curtains pulled down, his study chair broken…wait study chair !

He rushed to his study table. Yes! Just as he thought .It looked like Damon spilled water on it. Color drained from his face, he was suppose to submit his assignment tomorrow. He worked very hard on it.

"Che cazzo (what the fuck)?" he said with almost a lady like shriek.

"quel figlio di puttana(that son of bitch)!" he continued with a growl.

"Stef…honey English…" Caroline said with a slight scared tone.

It's not like he didn't expected Damon to do something in return for kissing his girlfriend, but this wasn't what he expected.

"I am calling ,Lena" Caroline said.

"I am so sorry …Stef.." Elena said as she sat beside him.

"I will do your assignment …I will make all ten diagrams …I will stay up all night if I have to" Elena said in sad desperate tone.

"It's ok...Elena…It's not your fault …" he said in a low tone looking down.

"See...Lena...he is mental…I mean…really I told you to break up with Damon years ago…he is a bully …he use to bully us when we were children and he still bully us …" Caroline said.

"Care…!" Elena said in warning tone.

"It's ok…Stefan ...we will eat his heart out when you go on date with Elena …oh I will love the look on his face…" Caroline said in a childish tone.

"No…I am not doing this anymore…" Elena said.

"Yeah…that will be wise …at this point …I mean …he still have those anger issues …we shouldn't push him much" Bonnie said.

"and let Lena…go through that torturous thing that she considers a relationship…no.." Caroline said.

"Care…it's not your decision to make…this should be my choice…" Elena said.

" Lena…no…we are doing this my way…" Caroline said.

"This is not a game Care…honey! I know you love me …but I hate this …he could hurt Stef …even if he doesn't physically …I still don't want to be the girl who comes between two brothers…this destruction clearly shows he is hurt...I can't ..I wont hurt Damon anymore..What kind of person hurt someone they love.." she said almost in crying tone.

"you are not coming between us …frankly I think he knows this is all a drama" Stefan said to really hated when she cried.

"I will talk to him…let's see if we could work it out…or I will just give up" she said with sigh.

"Yes…! Give his ego a major boast" Caroline said with groan.

"Care…!" Bonnie warned.

"I am just looking out for her …" Caroline said.

"I know …! " Elena said as she side hugged Caroline.

"I will go clean up your room…" Elena said she got up.

"No…it's ok…I will clean it up …" Stefan said dragging her back.

"oh no…it's not because I am guilty …I just can't stand such mess.." she said with a sighed.

"fine…"

"I will go help her" Caroline said as she followed Elena.

Elena silently started cleaning up mess made by her boyfriend.

"Why won't you just apologize to her?" Klaus asked again looking at his friend who was driving fast, too fast for his taste.

"I don't want to talk about her.." his arrogant black haired friend replied.

"oh come on…mate …you are suppose to tell me this stuff" Klaus said.

"why ? so you could tell blonde about ..how I am oh so remorseful.." Damon asked.

"really…I just gave away my one chance with that girl for you " Klaus said with a bit anger in his voice.

"I told you about all their plan …and all…you are still here sulking like a little bitch" Klaus continued now feeling indignant.

"And this is all Caroline's plan …" Damon inquired.

"Yes…partly a bit Stefan's too …" Klaus said.

"Don't defend that blonde… snarky little bitch.."

"Damon" Klaus warned.

Damon halts his car in front of Klaus's house. Klaus gets out.

"Aren't you coming in?" He asked.

"Nay… ! " he said before he left.

He was originally headed to his house but then he took wrong turn, thinking about quite a long time before they even started dating.

"So you are saying that there is this guy at your school who bullies you around…like Stefan..can you be more embarrassment to me …just man up and beat the fucking hell out of him" Damon said while playing Xbox game with Stefan.

"It's not that easy … they have like a gang …they are like body builders or something …" Stefan replied while killing another zombie.

"body builders in middle school …huh..Are you sure they aren't obese kids..just do what I say ..go and beat the up ." Damon replied in an annoyed tone.

"but they are just enormous …yesterday they made Caroline do all their homework…and now he wants me to write his science paper" Stefan replied .

"Fine…I will come over to your school and have a little talk with them…" Damon answered with a groan.

"Just talk..please no fighting…" Stefan said.

"yeah whatever!" he said . He rose up and threw the controller as soon the screen declared him the winner.

"Later , loser" he said.

(Next day)

He spotted the brunette girl and his brother coming out of their campus .Since he was a sophomore now at high school he was at different campus. He had to leave early to have a "little talk" with apparently some guy who was bullying his little brother and his friends.

"Well! Well! Well!...the little rat and his girlfriend are here" He saw a tall and considerably well built

for 14 year old boy stand in front of his brother and Elena with two other boys who weren't as tall or well built like their leader apparently ,Damon recognized him as one of his old classmate who failed last year . Damon frowned.

"Salvatore…didn't I tell you to do my science paper..?" he asked harshly.

do your own work …Justin" Stefan replied."Seriously do your own work…this is your comeback" Damon thought. "could have said the classic up yours…He is embarrassment" he thought.

"looks like you need to be taught a lesson…"Justin said as he moved forward rolling his sleeves up and grabbed Stefan by his collar.

"Hey…Leave him alone …" Elena said as she pushed the boy off her best friend.

Damon virtually mind clapped after seeing the girl's courage.

"How dare you?" Justin said as he glared at Elena. He pushed Elena with full force. Elena fell on the hard ground. Damon felt his heart drop. Suddenly he felt insane as his fists clenched.

Stefan rushed to Elena side.

A loud scream turned their attention to Justin who had one of his arm pinned painfully behind his back and bent at angle that brought him unbearable pain.

"See..now Justin … I was going to let you go with just a black eye for bullying my brother but you crossed the line when you touched my girlfriend and you better hope she is ok…or I will stub your eye balls out…" Damon said

"I am ok ..Damon ..." Elena squeaked.

"Sure you are honey" he said still in a dark tone, for a second looking at Elena.

He kicked Justin .Justin shouted in pain. " shush! Don't you dare make a sound …or I will make it more painful for you" he said as he let his arm go.

"Damon let him go" Stefan said in horrified tone.

Damon punched Justin mercilessly on his face. He was inhuman,crazy and nothing like a pervert yet sweet guy Elena knew.

"and…Nobody bullies my little brother except me .." he said, as he punched Justin with slight less force then before.

"Now Listen to me …If you tell anyone about our little talk …well…you know what I can do to you" he said in a dark tone. "Now …let me take you to nurse's office…since you just fell down the stairs you might need help" he said as he helped Justin up.

"Stef !E-L-ena…Leave already" he said .

He breathed in as he snapped back to reality finishing his last cigarette. He found himself a little far from town. He looked at his watch and realized it was too late. He should get home now.

As soon as he took a U turn. He remembered something way back that happened after that fight with Justin.

"What are these?" she asked angrily as she entered his room.

"Roses…" he answered without looking at her and still playing a game on his laptop.

"Yes…and why were they in my locker?" she asked in an angry tone.

"Because you are my girlfriend" he said with a matter-of-fact tone.

"Oh God..What did I do to deserve this ?" she said in a desperate tone.

"Something real good definitely ... or you wouldn't have got me so obsessed over you" he said still not paying attention to her.

"And this freaking note which says I will take you to this year dance…like you are not even giving me an option to reject or accept" she said in annoyed tone.

"You are not getting an option..you are going with me" he said now looking at her as the next level loaded.

She blushed.

"I can't go with you …I have already said yes to Matt" she said.

"I know…I made it clear to him that you don't need his services" he said in a dark tone.

She threw a pillow at him."Hey ! what was that for?" he asked. She took the other pillow and started hitting him with it. He tried to defend himself. He grabbed hold of her wrist and yanked her to him, pushing her to his bed as he pinned her hands above her head.

Crystal blue eyes met chocolate brown. They stared at eachother for saw her blush. "Get off me you jerk"

She said as she pushed him off her.

"Pervert" she mumbled as she ran out of his room.

"It's almost 12 Stef…why isn't he home yet?" Elena said as she paced around fastly.

"Relax Lena…he should be back by now" Stefan said as he called Damon again.

"Still switched off?" she asked.

"yes.."

"Will he be ok?" she asked now almost on verge of tears.

Stefan hated her restlessness ,her desperation for his brother and any reason that made her upset.

"Hey…its Damon we are talking about…it's not like it's the first time ..He just randomly disappeared after he is mad…this is his usual behavior" he said as he cupped her face.

She pushed his hands away but not rudely. She sat down on chair and hid her face in her hands.

She drifted off to happier time , the first time Damon took her on a date.

Tonight was the night Damon was finally going on a date with Elena. After months and months of following her and asking her on dates , she finally gave in. He could never forget her face when she accepted. Her mouth was forming a scowl but her cheeks were red and her eyes were shining like stars in a dark night. Ok…that was too poetic.

He arrived at her house in the car he borrowed from Mason , his friend. Her house wasn't as big as he thought. She opened the door. She was wearing white blouse paired up with jeans jacket and denim mini skirt.

He on the other hand was wearing formal navy blue shirt paired up with leather bomber jacket and navy jeans. His eyes popped out at her dressing.

"Wow" he complemented.

"Wow yourself" she replied with a smirk copying his .

"Your dad allowed you car …" she asked surprised.

"ah..its Mason's"

"oh Damon…you didn't need to do that…"

"but…I wanted to you know..make it perfect for you …the best date of your life…" he said. "I booked us a table at the best restaurant this town can offer but our time is about at 9 …so we should hang out..and "

"Damon…chill…" she said as she touched his arm.

He felt his heart beat gazed at her as she continued talking.

"Skip the car and let's take a walk…to the park then we will go to the Grill and then we will go buy ice cream and you will have to drop me about at 10 …that's my curfew." She said with a smile as she started walking .

"So…" he said as he hurriedly started walking beside her.

"Lets go Skating" she said .

"you skate?" he asked.

"Yes…you?"

"Yeah…actually I use to skate all the time …back at Pasadena..it wasn't too famous there but .." he kept talking till they arrived at skate ring.

The place was enormous. They went to the place where they exchanged shoes for skates. They were four wheeled skates. "ready?" he asked as soon as he put on his skates.

"Now …remember if you think you will fall just call me …or hold on to me if I am close" he instructed.

She glared at him . " I can skate...I am an expert.."

"Sure you are honey…" he said as he bent down to help her wear her skates. He looked adorable .She felt her heart melt.

"Good Luck" she said as he pushed making him lose his balance and fall .

She skated toward the ring.

He followed her. Now and then holding her hand or pushing her to lose balance just to catch her as soon as she was close enough to fall. As soon as he looked at her, she had a panic attack. She

can not be in love with him. No way , not on first date. She looked away blushing.

"What are you thinking about?" he inquired curious.

"Nothing much…" she said. " Catch me if you can .." she said as she skated fast to opposite direction.

"Hey" she heard him. She was skating fast as she saw him pass her and just stop in front of her ."Watch it " she shouted as she stumbled.

She screamed as she thought she was about to crash, she closed her eyes waiting for the floor .She found herself in a tight embrace with him. She loved his fragrance ,his touch, his arms…

"You ok?" he asked concerned looking at her.

"Yeah" she said as she pulled away.

He started laughing .

"What…?" she asked .

"You should have seen your face" he said between fits of laughter.

"Miss I am so expert at skating" he mocked while laughing.

"Hey…Don't laugh…Damon…stop it…Stop" she said ,with a red face

The sound of car parking brought her back to reality.

"He is here..." she said as she got up. A tall figured man entered through main door. She rushed to him and hugged him " oh ! Thank God you're ok"

That's it for today…

Please Review and no flames …Please be nice…

Take care

The Jealous Ex Boyfriend

Chapter 7

"I was so worried about you" Elena mumbled still hugging him. He felt his heart skip a beat, just like in their earlier days of relationship. He was surprised how even after five years she still managed to make him feel that way. He bit his lip. But he was mad at her, mad at her for playing with his emotions. She tried to fuck with his mind again.

"Oh sweetheart…you were worried" he said in fake concerned tone as he pulled away holding her arms.

"Yes , of course I was worried" Elena replied instantly.

"But, you didn't look worried at all…you looked like you were having fun with my little brother" he said with a sarcastic smile.

"That …That was just a show "Elena confessed.

"Tell me something I don't know…you know for a moment I wish the thing between you and my brother was real … at least I wouldn't have to see how lying manipulative bitch you are…" he said harshly.

"Damon…" Stefan said in an alarmed tone.

"I knew it was fake …Lena I can read you like a book …but to think it was this easy for you to play with my emotions like that" he said in a harsh tone.

"I know…what I did was wrong" she said in an extremely sad voice.

"I was hurt by your behavior…and I am really sorry…I know I crossed the line when I kissed your brother just to make you insecure…just to show you that …I have the ability to move on …but I don't know …I love you …." She continued in a desperate tone.

He loved it. He loved her desperateness .He loved how madly she loved him. But , her punishment wasn't over yet.

"Damon…look whatever you saw between me and Lena was …a set up …Lena was against it from the start …she didn't want to hurt you" Stefan said.

"but she did hurt me … she had free will..she should have used that…and I will thank you to stay out of it…because God Help me Stefan …I hate you as much as I despise her at this moment" he said with a growl that made Elena wince.

Stefan was shocked and embarrassed at the same time. He slowly retreated to his own room.

"Damon… Listen to me please" she begged Damon who was also about to leave.

"Elena…it's not going to work out" he said now as she stood in front of him.

"Please…" she begged.

"I don't want you anymore" he said with a final tone.

He swore he saw her break that moment.

"Is this your final decision?" she asked.

"Yes" he said as he left her behind in living room.

Yes, he was upset, very upset with her for playing with his emotions like this. Ok..yes ,He admits he shouldn't have done what he did at his party. But, in his defense, that was harmless flirting. He was very angry a few moments ago at her display of affection for him after what she did in these two days. Did she really think he was a fool? No, he will never be with someone who would deliberately hurt him.

It had been two months since their break up .Elena stopped visiting Boarding House. Stefan didn't talk to him much .Klaus had been his only friend through his difficult time. Apart from telling him that his breakup will be the worst mistake of his life, Klaus remain stead fast with his best friend. Damon started dating after second week of his breakup, on Klaus insistence.

He acted all, "I-love-my-single life" during the days but at nights he missed his ex girlfriend very much. And it didn't help that he haven't even seen her once after their breakup. He was too embarrassed to ask Stefan. He regretted breaking up with her in the first place.

Damn, his impulsive behavior. That night when he came back home, he saw Elena worried about him just like she had always have been. He was mad at her. He was mad at her for trying making him believe she could ever love someone else . Didn't she knew that she belong to him. He did what he always does whenever someone did something he didn't like .He pushed her away from him. But now, he missed her. He missed her smile. He missed her laugh .He missed her concern whenever he was drunk or whenever he was sick. And after his disaster dates he was sure Elena was the "one".

He was one week away from calling her and begging her to take him back. Too bad his ego wouldn't allow that.

"How was your date last night?" Klaus asked as he sat next to his best friend.

"Well…It was the most boring date of my life" Damon replied with a sigh.

"Oh come on! Linda isn't that bad…" Klaus said with a smirk as he waved to the blonde girl in the end of class.

"Don't wave at her…she will come here and then I will have to talk to her" Damon said with a tired tone.

"So what happened?" Klaus asked, interested.

"well for starters , she was half hour late …she was wearing hell a lot of makeup …all she did was texting on her phone and then she got a call and excused herself but not before she texted me for another date"

"Still better then Chloe…The Twilight girl…" Klaus said.

"yes…Edward is this …Edward is that…we should watch Twilight…I will let Edward take me in public…I was like …who the hell is Edward…?" Damon replied still infuriated.

"I think it's not them ...it's you …I guess you miss her a lot…Think about it buddy …it's not too late yet…"Klaus replied.

Salvatore boarding house

"Hey" Stefan greeted his brother as he came outside his room.

Damon just gave him a nod.

"I wanted to ask you something…"

"Aha" Damon replied.

"We are having a party tonight here ….my usual "End of semester party"" Stefan informed.

"Sure…a party sounds nice…" Damon nodded approving the idea.

"Oh no! We is in me and my friends" Stefan replied sharply.

"What? Am I not allowed at party in my own my house…"Damon replied.

"Sure…but…listen…Len will be here …she is okay with you being here … Will you be ok with this …you won't feel awkward and all?" Stefan asked.

Damon raised his eyebrows. Of course, Elena will attend Stefan's party .This had been their tradition. And what exactly does Stefan means she will be okay with him being here. Was she seeing someone else…Did she move on already. He felt his inside burn.

"Why? Why would I have a problem...I moved on…" he said in somewhat collected tone.

"Sure…" Stefan replied as he left.

He checked himself one last time in washroom mirror. He was wearing a black shirt with a jacket paired up with jeans. He looked awesome, as usual. But he needs to look extra good to show Elena that he was moving on. After all, this was the first time he was going to see her after their breakup.

His eyes scanned for Elena as he walked down stairs.

God! He hated high school parties…too lame. He greeted his brother football team mates and some other douches from his brother's class. He groaned in impatience.

"Elena!" he heard his brother greet. He turned around immediately. She was wearing fitted plaid

shirt paired up with blue denim cut off shorts and cow boy boots. A jacket was tied to her waist

line. Her wavy hair were let down. She didn't put on much makeup .She looked flawless. She gave

Stefan a warm smile before she hugged him.

"I missed you so much" Stefan said as he hugged her tightly.

"I know…I am sorry…"she said as she hugged him back.

"You have a lot of explaining to do" Bonnie said in a threatening voice.

"I know…I will explain later" she said as she hugged Bonnie.

"Where is Care?" she asked Stefan.

"She will be here …in a while "Bonnie replied.

"Hi Damon" she greeted him warmly as if …as if their breakup never happened..As if they didn't had a fight...No awkwardness at all.

"Hey..." he replied awkwardly.

From the corner of his eye. He saw Stefan smirk. Was this a set up too?

"I need to meet other people…oh gosh...I will be back" she said to all of them as she left to meet her other friends.

"Spill it Bitches …Is this a set up too?" He growled.

"What?"Bonnie said now alarmed at Damon's sudden change of behavior.

"You are doing it again right…making me feel jealous and all"

"No…No...No…not everything revolves around you Damon" Stefan said.

"Then why is she acting so…so..." he asked

"I believe normal is the adjective you are looking for" Klaus answered coming from behind.

"I don't know …but you better stay away from her…she is getting over you …so just leave her alone" Caroline said in a harsh tone.

He glared at the blonde girl. Klaus instantly stood in front of Caroline protectively. Damon groaned at his reaction. As he turned around to look for Elena. She went through her friends greeting people now and then.

He smiled as he saw her giggle. She was talking to a group of girls. It had been awhile since he saw her that relaxed and cheerful. And then reality dawned upon him. She was getting over him…and so far it looked as if she was achieving her goal. Breaking up had been his decision and he had been regretting it since day one. He instantly felt depressed at her progress of getting over him. He walked toward a table to grab a drink.

He saw Stefan glare at Elena and sprinting toward her. As he pulled her out of that group.

"Don't tell me …you are leaving already" Stefan said anger visible in his tone.

"I have to…he is waiting for me …I can't just leave him like that" she replied. "Probably talking about Jeremy" Damon thought.

"You should have brought him here" Stefan hissed. "Jeez…why is he so pissed…acting protective and all.." Damon thought irritated.

"Oh please…Stefan not this again" she said with a groan.

"I am not leaving you alone with him ...after I saw the way he was eyeing you …" Stefan hissed again protectively. "Ok…Back off a minute…They weren't talking about Jeremy for sure…" Damon thought suddenly attentive.

"Nothing of that sort is going to happen…sheesh" Elena replied as she ran fingers through her long beautiful hair.

"Then …I will drop you home and stay until Jenna or Jeremy is back" Stefan said.

"You have got to be kidding me" Elena said. "You can't leave your party" she continued.

"I am sure, no one will miss me" he said as he grabbed her wrist. Damon felt a jolt of jealousy again.

Stefan dragged her to him and said "I am going to drop her off …keep an eye on stuff".

Damon didn't have any choice other than letting them go; the other alternative was far more horrible. He couldn't allow her to stay alone with some guy he didn't even know and after Stefan's remarks about the said guy he was sure he hated his guts. He nodded in approval looking one last time at the girl who was busy texting someone with her other hand. Was she texting that other guy? Were they together? Did she like him? He realized how much the thought of Elena with someone else agonized him.

"Let's go…" Stefan said before he dragged her out with him.

Damon realized no matter how mad he was with his brother. He never considered Stefan a threat. True, he was jealous of her strong bond with Stefan but he knew the nature of their relationship. It took him time to adjust to sharing her with Stefan in the initial days of their relationship.

It had been half year to their relationship. Elena and Stefan had one month left in middle school after which they will be joining Damon in high school, to his ultimate relief. He was little too over

protective for Elena's taste. The fact that he tried to make her quit cheer leading because he didn't like the way boys talked about how sexy she looked in that skirt , jumping and cheering for the boys in football team. But she made it clear to him that..It was none of his business. They fought for weeks due to this issue until Elena promised she will quit in the coming month. Caroline hated her for her decision of course.

Then the next pressing issue was the kind of company Damon kept. Except for Klaus, all his friends were trouble makers and not least bit interested in their careers. Damon assured Elena he won't get influenced by them.

Their relationship was bittersweet, yet it was working out perfectly.

Damon was playing an Xbox game with Klaus when Elena and Stefan entered. Stefan was muttering something to her as he supported her to walk.

As soon as he saw her, he nearly shouted. Her face was covered with scratches, her lower lip was bleeding. By the looks of it, Her knee was bruised and her hair were completely messed up.

"What the hell happened?" he shouted as rushed to his girlfriend.

"Lena…had a fight" Stefan replied uncomfortably as he slowly supported her to sit on couch.

"Fight" Klaus asked surprised.

Usually, it was the other way around. Mostly, it was him bringing Damon home after he had a fight with someone at school or party and Elena welcoming them by scolding them and giving them First aid.

"Why the hell would you get into a fight… tell me who did this to you…I swear I will beat the living fuck out of them "he said as he bent down on his knees looking directly to her in a dark tone.

"Actually...she is hardly hurt in comparison to what she did to her opponent" Stefan replied with a chuckle as he came back with First aid box.

"You think it's funny …my girlfriend is badly injured and you have the audacity to tell me that she is hardly hurt" Damon growled at Stefan.

"Damon…I am ok" she said as she cupped his face.

"I can see that…" he replied sarcastically.

"Care to tell me what the fuck happened?" he asked.

"Melissa …cheated on me …" Stefan replied with a shrug.

"and" Damon asked.

"and what…we saw her with Ben…they were making out …so Lena attacked Mel…Ben tried to stop them so she kicked him in the place where sun doesn't shine ..then she scratched her face ,threw her on ground and used that move that you taught her last month for self defense (Damon face palm's) you know the one where you grab the arm and pull it around their back…well after that she pulled her hair and make her beg me for forgiveness...when Lena let her go ..Mel attacked Lena…but then I stopped them" Stefan said quickly.

Damon glared at Elena . "Lena…Room..Now" he ordered.

"She can't get up" Klaus said, trying to save her from Damon's wrath for the moment.

Damon groaned as he supported her to his room. As soon as he dropped her on bed. He folded his arms firmly on his chest waiting for her explanation.

"I know you are mad at me"

"Yes…I am..You can get expelled for this" he growled.

"She cheated on my best friend…she cheated on Stef…I could kill the bitch" she said in a protective tone. This was one of the times ,he felt really envious of Stefan. He bit his lip. She dragged him down to sit next to her.

"Do you love him more than you love me?" he asked in a low tone.

She felt her heart break.

"Why would you ask me that…?" she said as she looked at him.

"That's not an answer" he said.

"I love Stefan just like I love Jeremy…on the other hand I am in love with you …" she explained.

He smiled at her clever answer.

She pulled him to her and kissed him on his lips, his tongue slips inside her mouth, rough and demanding. He stopped for bit to let her breathe. "You know, you're mine right?" he asked as he pecked her again on her lips.

"You will never have to worry about that…" she said as she continued kissing him.

The annoying ring of his phone brought Damon back to reality. He was on his bed, thinking about Elena his now ex girlfriend. His thoughts went back to the guy Stefan mentioned last night.

Stefan never returned. The thought that he spent the night with Elena just drove him insane. Not because something could have happened between them but because Stefan could stay there with her and he couldn't. Again..damn his impulsive attitude.

He picked up his phone.

"Damon…I am going to the Elena's Lake house with Len, Care and Kol I will be back after the weekend …just letting you know"

Damon curled his lips to keep himself from talking; his mind was whirling with outrageous thoughts where Elena and a guy were walking hands in hands beside the lake. He didn't even reply and canceled the call.

He looked over at his clock and groaned as he noticed he was going to be late for his class. He hurriedly went to washroom to take shower.

One week Later

Damon was driving back home after another boring day of his classes. It was still cold, even though it was March. His situation with Elena haven't improved one bit. He soon found out about the mystery guy living with Gilberts. The guy was Grayson's favorite internee who opted for volunteer work in Mystic Fall's local hospital. He was currently residing with Gilberts. He happens

to know this because the person in question was Klaus's older brother.

He asked Klaus to offer his brother to stay at Salvatore Boarding House instead of living under the same roof as his ex girlfriend. Klaus reply was to "suck it". Not to mention that Stefan refuse to discuss Elena with him. His mind replayed the conversation they had after Stefan came back from Gilbert Lake House.

"How was your weekend?" Damon asked with venom filled voice.

"For fuck sake …stop acting like a jealous boyfriend…you broke up with her so get over it and don't make it more difficult than it already is.." he spat back .

Damon took a deep breath.

"what if …What if I tell you I regret it…yes I was mad at her that time and I acted on impulse…" Damon said uncomfortably.

Stefan eyed him and then smirked

"It doesn't matter now…Damon …look it's too late …just stay away from her and I mean it…"

He said as he started to walk toward his room.

"What do you mean too late…is she dating Klaus's brother…? Is she with someone else now…?" Damon asked in clearly panicked tone.

Stefan chuckled at is outburst.

"What's so funny?" He asked.

"Nothing…It's none of your business…" Stefan replied.

"Who is taking her on that dreaded high school dance?" Damon asked as his brother turned around to walk away.

"Again …none of your business…" he said as he went inside and closed his door.

He did found out who Elena was going with to the dance. It was Stefan, Of course. For the first time in his life he wished it was him, Elena would go to dance with.

In this week, he came face to face with Elena a few times but she was always accompanied with her friends or Jeremy. She would greet him like she greeted any other casual friends of her.

As he parked his car and stepped in his house. He saw his brother lying on couch with a blanket wrapped around him.

"What happened to you?" he asked.

"Football practice, yesterday …caught cold (sneeze)" Stefan said in a low tone.

"Oh…" Damon said as he narrowed his eyes.

"Wait…Weren't you suppose to go to dance with Elena today?" Damon asked instantly.

"Yeah…but as you can see … I have high fever and (sneeze) this fucking flu…I don't think I can dance in this state" Stefan replied in an annoyed tone.

"Meh…!"

"Can you call Elena and tell her I can't come…" he said.

"Sure…"

He took out his phone .

"No…call her from my phone…"Stefan said as he sniffed.

He rolled his eyes as he searched for her number in contacts. He called her. She picked up on second bell.

"Hey Stef…I was just going to call you…Elijah says you should take Bonnie since Jeremy is not going today…Elijah will take me to the dance …" she said fast.

Anger swirled like a tide within him .He felt excruciating pain. She couldn't go on dance with Elijah.

He won't allow that.

"Stef…you there?" Elena continued.

"Stefan is sick …he caught cold…" he replied in a harsh tone.

"Damon?" she said with surprise filled tone.

"Stef is sick…why didn't he tell me that…" she asked.

"You should ask him that…" Damon said as he cancelled the call.

"What happened?" Stefan asked alarmed at his dark tone.

"She found a new partner…Elijah" he said as his mouth formed into a hard line.

He was half way through his second bottle when he heard a car park. He leaned back to see who was outside.

Elena rushed inside as she pulled her jacket off.

She was wearing a Red and White Gingham Shirt and skinny jeans. Her hair were let lose. She looked so beautiful, even without any sort of makeup not even her usual eyeliner.

"Hey..." she greeted.

"I came fast as I could…Where he is?" she said in worried tone.

"He is… he is in the living room.." Damon said.

"Ok.." she said as she walked passed him .

"What about your dance?" he asked as he followed her.

"Stef is sick …the last thing I would want to do now is attend a dance party" she said as she folded her sleeves.

"Hey.." Stefan greeted her in a weak voice.

"My idiot is sick again…I told you not to do extra practice in that weather but when do you ever

listen to me?" she said as she sat close to him and touched his forehead to check temperature.

Damon almost growled at her way of calling Stefan "her idiot".

"Hmm..Definitely fever…" she said as she rushed to their medicine cabinet to fetch a thermometer.

"Weren't you going with Elijah?" Stefan asked.

"That was before Damon told me you are ill…" she said as she rushed back, putting thermometer under his tongue. Damon gazed at her intently. Elena always nursed them both whenever any of them fell sick.

"101°" she said worriedly.

"I will make you soup …you really need to eat a lot…you know what they say feed a fever…" she said as she rushed to kitchen.

Damon sat on a chair further from their sight. He pretended to go through his phone and looked at her now and then.

As Elena came and sat on couch, she motioned Stefan to lay his head on her lap. Stefan obeyed resting his head on her lap. Elena placed a wash cloth on his forehead.

Damon bit his lip as he saw Elena murmuring something to Stefan, something about school.

Stefan chuckled in response.

Damon's breath becomes harsh and shallow as he saw how lovingly she took care of him. The feeling of jealousy was slowly growing into his skin, filling his blood. He could feel his eyes burn. What wouldn't he give to be in Stefan's place now?

"I will get your soup now.." she said as she rose up.

As she came back with tray. She helped Stefan sit. She placed the tray on her lap as she slowly started feeding him.

"You're spoiling me …" Stefan said.

"Enjoy it while it lasts..." Elena replied with a chuckle.

She started talking about various things with him. Stefan seems to be lost in gossip noticed Stefan gaze at her with a smile as she giggled.

Damon never realized how painful it would be to see his Elena with someone else. He clenched his fist not knowing whether to be mad or upset. And then it clicked.

At some point, Elena will find her dream guy, she will get married to him and have kids. She will be taking care of him just like this, when that guy would get sick. She would sit by his side, talking, smiling and taking care of him. That thought destroyed him completely. He couldn't take this anymore. He grabbed his keys, deliberately leaving his jacket and went out.

After driving to a suitable distance .He parked his car on roadside and came out.

He flinched as the cold air cut through his veins. He started shivering soon. But nothing mattered. Because, right now..He was desperate, he needed her attention. Even if that meant he had to physically torment himself for awhile to get sick.

Chapter 8

Stefan finally slept. Elena ran fingers through his hair as she scooted closer to him in his bed. Lights were dim. She rested her head on the pillow next to her best friend as she closed her eyes, drawing the covers closer.

She couldn't help but think about her ex boyfriend. She felt shattered when he broke up with her. She could see his decision was final. She deserved it. Even after what he did, she should have never agreed to Stefan and Caroline's plan. You don't hurt someone you love. You will tolerate anything for them. First three days of her break up had been the worst time of her life. The pain was almost as bad as the time she lost her mother.

She loved Damon; she will always love him more than anyone in her life. But keeping him in their sad, pathetic and toxic relationship was wrong, he deserved much more than that. Hence, she concluded that making someone staying with you, just because you love them isn't love …its stupidity and that's when she decided that she had to let Damon go no matter, how hard that was. No matter, how much it killed her. She finally took her decision. Stefan supported her as usual on a condition though.

She sighed as she recalled the time, when all the trouble started.

It was Elena's sixteenth birthday. Everyone she loved or barely knew was here except for her boyfriend. She called him again.

"Hey baby!" Damon said as he picked up.

"Don't tell me you are with your friends again" she hissed.

"Not again" he said with a sigh.

"Damon…It's my birthday" She said.

"Can't we celebrate tomorrow?" he said with a groan. And then she sensed his different tone.

"Are you high?" she questioned.

His laughter answered her.

"Oh come on ! baby! You know how strict dad is with me these days …he won't let me hang out with my friends…this was my only chance …BTW…if dad calls tell him I am gonna stay with you for the weekend …and when I come back I promise I will make it up to you …please please..Please.." He said

"I am not lying to your dad again…I made excuse on your behalf three times this month "

"Lena…that man will ground me for life if he finds out I am in Vegas…"

"You are in Vegas?" she nearly shouted.

"Well…not technically but I am on my way…with the gang, Mason and Mason's cousin" he said.

"Please cover up for me …please…I will be your lap dog for a month "he continued.

"This is the last time I am covering up for you" she said as she hung up on him.

She was nearly about to cry.

Damon never fulfilled his promise. He continued hanging out with his good for nothing friends. She noticed that he started to fail in some classes. In a month or so she found that he was using drugs.

Due to his poor result, his father became stricter with him. He wasn't allowed to hang out with his friends anymore. The only time he ever got permission to go out was when he was going out with Elena.

He used that to his advantage, on an excuse to go out with Elena he would hang out with his friends.

They had the worst fights when Elena refused to cover up for him. Elena didn't approve of his new activates. His unexpected road trips, his use of drugs and lately his street fighting was a little too much for Elena to handle.

Things were getting very difficult for Elena to handle.

After a month to her birthday. As usual, when she came back with Stefan to Salvatore Boarding house. She went to see Damon. She entered his room and found it empty. She took out her cell and called Damon.

She heard his ringtone. She sighed as she saw his phone on side table.

She picked his phone and removed miss call notification from her. She noticed an incoming message from a girl, Mandy. Now Elena wasn't the one of overly possessive insecure girlfriend as far as she recalled Mandy asked Damon a few days ago.

Her curiosity got the best of her and she opened her chat.

It surprised her that they texted all night. She remembered Damon told her he was busy with a project so he couldn't call her. So this was his project. She felt her cheeks burn.

"What the fuck are you doing?" she heard Damon's voice behind her. She turned around he

instantly snatched his phone from her hands.

"Were you…were you going through my phone?" he asked with frown.

"No…I was just…Isn't this Mandy, the girl who asked you out last week?" she asked.

"Elena…stop acting like an insecure bitch…seriously what is the matter with you?" Damon replied in a firm tone.

Elena stumbled for words. She wasn't expecting him to be this harsh with her.

"I am sorry" she replied.

"Just don't do that again" he said as he locked his phone.

"I wanted to ask you about Alan's party…are you going with me?" she asked hopefully.

"No..We are not going to that party" he said as he walked toward his closet.

"But I already told him we are coming…" she said.

"You should have checked in with me first…" he said as he wore his jacket.

"I wanna go…" she said.

He glared at her.

"What part of No,do you don't understand…" he said as he glared at her.

"Ok..Ok..I don't want to fight…" she said as she moved closer to him.

"Cool…I am going out with Mason…be a dear and tell dad I will be staying with you tonight…" he said as he cupped her face and kissed her once.

"It's our date night…"she said.

"We will do that some other time…" he said as he went out of his room.

Yes, Damon was a little too dominative. She turned toward a sleeping Stefan and smiled. At least, she had her best friends to support her.

"I saw him with Emma, the slut yesterday" Caroline said as she sat next to Elena in class.

"They are just friends…Damon will never cheat on me" she said .

"Sure…they didn't look like friends the way they were looking at each other with those fuck me eyes" Caroline said with a growl. Caroline was very protective of Elena.

"Care… stop it" she said as she opened her book.

"When is the last time he took you out on a date?" Bonnie asked.

"Three months ago…" Caroline replied on her behalf. Elena rolled her eyes.

"Elena …I think you should talk to him about this…" Bonnie said with concern filled voice.

"I will handle it" she replied.

Elena came back to reality as she saw Stefan tossing in bed .

"Hey…do you need anything "she said as she moved toward him.

"Water" Stefan said in a sleepy voice.

Elena got up and went to kitchen. She noticed Damon wasn't back home yet. She filled a glass and went back into Stefan's room. She slipped into the covers again beside Stefan on his bed, giving him glass. Stefan finished it in an instant.

He put the glass back on his side table as soon as he was finished. He fell on his pillow and went back to sleep.

She smiled as she heard Stefan snoring. She closed her eyes to, trying to fall asleep...But as if on cue her mind took her back to another memory.

"What are you doing here?" Caroline asked.

"This is my house …I live here" Elena answered with a slight amusement.

"I thought you were going to be in Damon's party" she said.

"What party?" Elena asked surprised.

Caroline nearly growled. That son of bitch threw a party and didn't invite his own girlfriend.

"Elena…Damon threw a party for his new college friends at his house". Caroline said.

"Oh…" Elena replied a bit hurt .

"What oh? Aren't you gonna go now?" she said.

"If he didn't invite me …why should I go?" Elena said with a shrug.

"When was the last time you two talked?" Caroline asked.

"Three days ago…when I went to his place" Elena replied.

"Elena…you are coming with me …there is something wrong I can feel it" Caroline said as she dragged Elena by her hand.

"Care…care…Oh come on…it's his party…we can't just gate crash" she said as Caroline opened the door of her car.

"What kind of a guy forgets to invite his own girlfriend unless he is planning to cheat on her" she said as she almost threw Elena on front seat and closed the door.

"You are getting all worked up" Elena said in an alarmed tone.

"And you are in denial" Caroline replied.

"Denial …of what?"

"That your relationship had ran its course and now it's time to break up" Caroline said as she drove to Boarding house.

Caroline parked her car in the driveway. As she grabbed Elena by her wrist. Elena sighed in

defeat to Caroline and followed her.

Loud music, dancing, smokes from every side welcomed them. She and Caroline went through a crowd. Her heart beat stopped as she spotted her boyfriend dancing or better say grinding with a blonde.

She felt her cheeks burn. That was it. She lost it. Five years she tolerated his non sense. As if on cue, he spotted her. She saw he didn't even look as if he was busted. He was clearly drunk, by the looks of it.

"What the fuck are you doing?" he snarled.

"Who is she?" Elena replied in slightly raised tone.

"I repeat what the fuck are you doing here?" he asked again.

"Checking up to see what my boyfriend was up to…I must say you were having fun" she replied in acid filled tone.

"yes…of course until you gate crashed…"

"How can you do this to me?" she asked now almost on verge of tears.

"Do what?" he said. "We were just dancing …God! Why do you have to act so insecure… "he continued with a growl.

"Dancing ….you was literally almost screwing her on the dance floor…" Caroline interrupted.

"Stay out of this blonde…" Damon growled.

"First failing, then drugs and now this…I am tired of picking after your mess Damon…I am tired of people telling me that you are no good for me…I am tired of telling people that you will change …" she said as tears trailed down her cheeks.

"You think you are too good for me …" he replied with smirk.

"I didn't say that…I just said I am tired of this shit…I tolerated all that…helped you through most of that...Helped you to get over addictions….I thought I could help you …change into a better person

..But this …this is unacceptable for me" she said as she pointed at the blonde he was previously dancing with.

"Ok...fine..understandable …Elena Gilbert the good girl , the topper of her class, possibly the valedictorian is too good for her bad boy boyfriend who fails his exams, uses drugs and parties like hell…" he said loudly.

"I didn't say that" Elena said.

"Yes…I was having hell a lot of fun with Heather and I wasn't even thinking about you…you know what Elena let me solve all your problems…because I am sick of you snooping on me ...I don't need that kind of thing in my life …I am finishing this right now…we are over …OVER…ok…" He said loudly. Elena could feel all eyes on her.

She was red from embarrassment.

She turned around to make a run for it. She felt Caroline's holding her arm as they both left.

She was brought back into reality with the sound of main door closed with full force.

Damon was home.

She thought to check over him. She got up from bed and went outside. He was wet, probably from rain. He was shivering. She noticed he wasn't wearing any jacket.

"Oh God..." she said as she went over to him who was looking at her intently when she came out of Stefan's room.

"Why on earth are you so wet?" she said as she got closer to him, still a good distance between them.

"It was raining…" he said as he shivered.

"You will catch cold now…go change ...I will make coffee for you to warm you up…" she said to him without directly looking at him.

After five minutes she knocked on his door.

"It's open" she heard him.

She went inside. She noticed he was still shivering wrapped in his sheets. His wet clothes were on his bedroom floor.

"Why didn't you take a jacket…don't you remember the last time you caught flu…you had a terrible fever for days…" she said as she handed him coffee and walked toward linen closet. She took a warm blanket and wrapped it around him carefully, without touching him. He noticed that she wasn't looking directly at him.

"I think I am going to throw up" he said as he pulled off his covers and ran to bathroom. She followed behind him.

She patted his back as he threw up. Once he was done, she helped him back to his bed.

"Relax…!" she said as she put her hand on his forehead to check for temperature.

"You don't have fever yet..." she said.

He looked at her. She was avoiding his eyes. "Do you feel nauseated?" she asked.

"Yes!" he lied.

She sighed as she walked out of his room.

"No…Please stay" he thought as he saw her leave.

She came back in about five minutes with a mug.

"Here Drink it…" she said as she handed the mug to him.

"What's this?" he asked as his nose wrinkled.

"Peppermint Tea" she replied. "Help calms the stomach" she said.

"Can't you just get me coffee?" he asked after first sip.

She folded her arms on her chest and bit her lip before she replied "I think you have Stomach flu...Beverages with caffeine isn't helpful in such case"

"I don't want to drink it…" he said childishly.

She sat beside him on his bed and touched his arm. "You will feel better after you drink this…"

He instantly relaxed at her touch. He drank it hurriedly.

"You should sleep now…rest is important in treating stomach flu" she said mechanically as she rose up.

He held her wrist and dragged her to him.

"What are you doing?" shock evident on her face.

"I am sorry" he said as he held her close to his chest.

"Let me go…" she said without looking at him.

"I know I am terrible person…I don't deserve you…but I need you E-Lena…I want you

back…these two months had been the worst time of my life and the thought of you with someone else nearly killed me today…I want to fix this…Just give me a chance" he said as he lean in to kiss her.

Before, she could do anything. She felt his lips brush against her. They were gentle at first and then they became hard and hungry. Elena gasped. He took the moment to deepen the kiss, groaning into contact. He could see she was hesitating. He continued kissing her furiously. She finally kissed him back.

"No..." she pushed him away.

"Oh come on…" he said desperately.

"We will talk about this tomorrow" she said as she turns around to exit.

"Ok..Ok..But at least stay with me…" he nearly begged. The thought of her sleeping in the same bed as Stefan, no matter how platonic they were, drove him insane with jealousy.

"I will take another room" she said as if she could read his mind.

"Goodnight" she said as she closed the door of his room behind her.

He woke up to the sound of her giggling. He smiled. His smile disappeared though as soon as he heard a male voice coming from downstairs living room. It wasn't his brother or Klaus or Jeremy.

He slowly rose up, groaning since his body ached.

He could see Stefan sitting on dining table across another man. He was sitting next to Elena. The man was very handsome to Damon's horror. He had dark brown short hair with hazel brown eyes high cheekbones and straight nose. He recognized the man from some pictures in Klaus's flat. Elijah Michelson.

Damon pressed his lips together tightly to refrain from telling the man to get out.

As soon as he came downstairs .He faked a smile.

"We have company…" Damon said.

"Yes…the famous Damon Salvatore…I have heard so much about you…" Elijah replied with a smile as he offered his hand for handshake.

Damon smirked. "Oh really...Elijah Michelson …I believe " he said as he accepted his handshake, only to crush his hand , the next second.

Elijah's smile faded but then returned. Showing as if nothing happened.

"I am sorry…I was sleeping" Damon said in a fake kind tone.

"Oh…it's ok…Elena informed me that the Salvatore brothers were ill …I just merely came here to ask her if she needed my help" he said as looked at Elena.

Elena smiled at him. Damon's feature darkened. His muscle tensed. He felt his blood boil.

"I have handled them before it's not new…" Elena replied in a kind tone.

"I know…I just wanted to see you…My day passes more beautiful that way" he said like love struck fool.

Elena flushed. Stefan eyes widened and Damon was simply shocked.

Someone had the audacity to flirt with his girlfriend right in front of his eyes. Elijah's words replayed in his mind, mocking him. The color in Elena's cheek fueled his anger. Why was she blushing to utter non sense he said? The feel of jealousy was growing in him.

"I will see you later then…"Elijah said as he looked at Elena.

Damon was outraged he didn't even have time to react.

"Sure…this way" she said she gestured him.

Before he knew it Elijah left.

"Are you ok?" Stefan asked.

"Elena…"Damon shouted.

Elena slowly came back after closing the main door.

"What was all that?" Damon hissed.

"What?"

"I wanted to see you…My days are more better that way.." Damon repeated Elijah's words in a mocking yet threatening way.

"Tell me there is nothing going on between you two…or I will kill him" he said in a low threatening tone.

"Damon…its nothing…" she said as she moved passed him.

He held her wrist. Stefan immediately came forward.

"Let go of her …Damon ...now …I mean it" Stefan said.

Damon let go of her. Stefan came in between them, pushing her behind him protectively.

"Stefan…I need to talk to Elena" he pleaded.

"it's ok…" she said from behind.

"Did you tell him about us?" Stefan asked her as he turned around.

"No…but I will now…" she said.

"What were they talking about?" Damon thought. And then his mind whirled with the most outrages thought. "What if …Stefan and Elena are together now…somehow in between all his screw ups and egoistical behavior …they fell for each other."

"I will be back in about ten minutes …finish it up with him" Stefan said as he walked out.

She sighed as she looked at Damon. She could study his feature. He felt intense pain.

"Is something going on between you two?" he choked.

She bit her lower lip before she answered.

"Nothing of that sort…" she replied.

He sighed in relief.

"So…what about last night? Give me another chance…Lets work it out…Lets give us another go" he said as he came closer to her.

"Damon…we have been back and forth for like last three years…you break up…I cling on …and its exhausting" she said as she looked directly into his eyes.

"I know…I have given you a tough time…but trust me … not even in my wildest dream would I think about cheating you…I never loved anyone more than I love you…" he said moving more closer.

"After we broke up…I went to live with my dad in Richmond for two months…" she said, pain visible in her eyes. She noticed him, listening intently.

"I thought about how I continue to cling on to you…the truth is that I love you more than anything in this world…but this is toxic…I don't want to struggle anymore…" she continued.

"I will work on behalf of both us …I promise I will work it out…" he promised.

"we can't …because I am moving to Richmond…to live with my dad after finals…that is in two weeks…since I got accepted at Medical Program in college in New York so I will be moving their after summer…I am leaving Mystic Falls …"

"Dad sent Elijah because…he is suppose to help me finish all my paper work…He is already a student at my college in New York so he is going to help me out with every formality…Stefan already knows that…he is coming with me…I told him to stay with you but he refused…so this is it Damon…" she finished.

And just like that…He felt a razor sharp unexplainable pain.

"You are leaving because of me?" he asked in an extremely pained tone.

"No, Damon…I was staying because of you…Since there is no us anymore…I don't see any reason to stay" She replied.

He felt numb.

"This is your way to punish me…" he said

"Of course not…I told you I love you…but I am not going to beg you to stay with me …that's not love …it's stupidity …I learnt it the hard way…" she said in a sad tone.

She said as she picked up her jacket that was on couch. She left without looking back at him even once.

3, 2, 1. Splash.

"What the fuck?" he said with a growl as he rose up.

The last thing Damon remembered was Elena's words that she was leaving him…then he remembered drinking a bottle of bourbon before passing out.

As he opened he saw two people standing . A blonde girl with a bucket and his best friend Klaus.

"Bitch…what the fuck?" he said as he rose up.

"You weren't waking up" Caroline answered with a shrug. Klaus laughed.

"What are you two doing here…Get out of my house…" Damon growled.

"Listen you nuthead…I am here to help you…" Caroline answered as she sat on the table.

"Oh no thank you…you have done enough..." he said as he threw away his wet shirt.

"Will you listen to her?" Klaus said blocking his way.

Damon rolled his eyes.

"I am going to help you get Elena back.." Caroline answered. Even her name stung.

"You will help me?…you hate me…you once told me calling me Satan is an insult to Satan" Damon said as he pushed Klaus out of his way.

"In fact…you wanted me and her broken up from the first day…" he said.

"Listen up you bonehead…Yes I hate you... but my love for Elena is stronger than my hatred for you…now Elena loves you …but she gave up on you…seriously …so much drama …anyway…now you have two options …

Option 1: You go out their…fight for her and prove it to her that you deserve to be in her life...just like you first came.

Option 2: you let Klaus's sexy brother Elijah sweep her off her feet"

She said with eyebrows raised.

He narrowed his eyes.

He turned around to look at an amused Klaus.

That's it for today …Please Please Please Review…

No flames.

Thank you so much for reading, reviewing, favouriting and following.

Take care

The Jealous Ex Boyfriend

Chapter 8

"Wait..A fucking second…why are you helping me?" Damon asked as his eyes narrowed.

"Is this is all a set up again? Is Elijah also a set up too?I get it..Elena is moving out of Mystic Falls …that's just too dramatic to be real…and you of all people coming to help me …nope...I don't buy it" Damon said with a slight smirk.

Caroline hissed. She glared at Klaus.

"Whatever helps you sleep at night mate, Come on Care…we are just wasting our time here, obviously Damon is too smart …he doesn't need our help" Klaus said with a shrug.

Damon rolled his eyes.

"Ok…wait ...wait…stay" Damon said hurriedly.

"She hates me" he said as he sat down on couch as he covered his face with his hands.

Caroline heart melted. Sure, she didn't like him much because he was egoistical, cocky and he bullied her a lot throughout middle school and high school and got her fired from her first job and almost got her arrested once for underage drinking charges, but he was still her friend.

"She is leaving Mystic Falls because of me …I was a jerk to her even after everything she did for me … I fucked up…I want her back "he said still covering his face.

"Then stop being a pussy …get her back ..." Caroline said.

"Why are you helping me?" he asked as he looked up.

"Isn't it obvious? Captain Jackass…she is leaving Mystic Falls because of you …I don't want that…besides as much as I hate you…and I can't believe I am saying this but you are one of my closest friend and someone I care about" Caroline said as she awkwardly looked away.

"Isn't this lovely … all the bonding …" Klaus said with a smirk.

"Quit it" Caroline said with a deadly stare.

"So..What are you going to do…any plan?" Caroline asked.

"No plans, Care…No manipulating anyone...Damon is just gonna go with this naturally …" Klaus said as he sat on counter.

Damon bit his lip before he nodded.

"Do you need help?" Elijah offered the brunette who was with her best friend in the kitchen making

lunch for all three of them.

"No, Thank you…You are home early?" she said.

"I was tired…and I wanted to see you" he said with a smile. Elena blushed.

Stefan rolled his eyes.

"Stefan…how are you feeling now?" he asked Stefan with a kind tone.

"Better, thank you" Stefan answered in a hostile attitude.

"I will go freshen up" Elijah said as he smiled at her.

As soon as he was gone. Elena glared at Stefan.

"What was That?" she said.

"What?"

"Why are you so rude to Elijah?"

"I don't understand…what did I ever do to make you feel that way" Stefan said with a slight smirk.

"Stop being such a caveman…what he ever did to you?" she said as she gave him a slight smack playfully on shoulder.

"Besides flirting continuously with my best friend… and trying to act as if he is your best friend not me and pushing me out of your life…nope nothing" Stefan said as he looked down.

"Stefan…" Elena said with a slight shock.

"Ever since you came back …you have been spending hell a lot of time with your new best friend…You weren't even going to tell me that you are leaving Mystic Falls…" Stefan said in a sad tone.

"Oh...Stefan…I am sorry…I am…just…these past days had been really difficult for me …and it

doesn't help that you are the brother of the guy that I am still desperately in love with…I am trying to move on …I didn't include you in my great plan of leaving Mystic Falls for good ... because you are all what Damon have …and I don't want to take away that from him" She said as she came closer to him ,both of her hands cupping his face.

For a second, something else flickered in his eyes.

"You are not going anywhere else until I tag along…you promised.." he said with one eye brow raised.

"Yes…I know…I promised you …you can come with me" she said with slight smile as she caressed his face.

"You are my best friend…I love you so much…nobody can ever replace you…" she continued as their foreheads touched.

"How adorable..."Elijah said as he entered.

Stefan and Elena snapped out of their moment.

"I am so tired" Stefan said as he yawned.

"You should probably go home then.." Elijah suggested as he helped Elena clearing counter.

"Can't .leave. Lena. Alone" Stefan said as he stretched.

"She isn't alone…I am here with her" Elijah said with a slight frown.

"Stay over tonight…Jeremy will be back by twelve and Jenna is staying over at Ric's" Elena suggested.

"Sure…Do you have my gray sweatshirt?" he said

"It's in the laundry…but I have got that blue shirt of yours…it's in my closet…" Elena said casually.

"Fine…I am gonna go take a nap" he said as he brushed past her.

"You guys are quite close" Elijah commented once Stefan left.

"Yup" Elena said absentmindedly as she placed plates on counter.

"So, Will he be also staying with me and Jeremy?" Elijah asked just to keep the conversation going.

"Of course not…He always stays in my room…" Elena answered.

"Oh…"

"Can I ask you something?" Elijah continued as he sat on chair near counter and started eating.

"Sure.." Elena said with a smile.

"Stefan and you have been best friends…then why not him? Why Damon? Stefan and you will make one hell of couple…" Elijah said.

Elena nearly choked.

"Oh…no …things between Stef and me had been always platonic…we know each other since we were babies … Damon on the other hand…I am in love with him…" Elena answered.

"Still …"

"Elijah …what are you getting at?" Elena snapped.

"As much as you told me about how you and Damon got together and how he treated you …I think he is jerk…"

"I don't want to discuss this again…"

"Elena…look at it my way…he is loser…aside from his looks …he doesn't have anything attractive in him…he was drug addict once…he has no future aside from being bartender… he have terrible grades in high school..I really wonder how the heck did even get accepted in college… and to top it off he treated you like shit for three years…"

"Elijah…stay out of it…this is none of your damn business…you are only here to help me with all my paper work to move out of this damn place…" Elena said harshly, she was about to leave when Elijah held her wrist.

"I am sorry…I shouldn't have said all that …please forgive me for my thoughtlessness"

"It's ok" Elena said as she slowly sat back. A moment silence followed.

"You know when I first saw you …about two months ago…when I had to pick up some papers from Dr Gilbert , you were looking out of window…your eyes were puffy…I could see continuous tears running down your cheeks…Your hair were a mess …no makeup…no fancy dress and you still looked ravishing..You are the most beautiful girl, I have ever seen" Elijah said with smile.

Elena blushed furiously.

"I don't know why…but it killed me when I saw you crying… Dr. Gilbert told me what happened to you … and I thought that the guy who dumped you, was the biggest idiot on this planet …"

"It wasn't Damon's fault entirely…" Elena interjected.

"Never the less… If I were him…I would never ever leave you…" he said with the most earnest look.

I really like you Elena… Give me a shot…I will treat you right…we might even have a future together…" Elijah said in almost a whisper, but clear enough for her to hear.

"I can't…I am sorry...It's too soon" Elena replied as she looked at him.

"You have to move on at some point…or are you backing off?" Elijah asked.

"No…I have made my mind…Damon is my past…"

"then…why not?...go out with me…just one date…If you don't like it…than its ok...we will be back to square one that is being friends" he said with a slight smirk at the end.

"Elijah…"

"Elena…I know how you feel ...I have suffered a heartbreak as bad as yours had been…sometimes we need to forget some people from our past because of one simple reason…they just don't belong in our future…Now the first step to move on is to decide that you are not going to stay where you are…which brings us to my question…will you go on date with me? And you owe me one date after you ditched me when your Stefan got sick" Elijah said as he smiled.

Elena smiled back.

"Fine…I will go on a date with you…"

"Thank Goodness…" Elijah said with a smirk.

"so tell me about her?" Elena asked.

"About who?"

"You said so yourself that you had also suffered a heartbreak…as bad as mine"

Elijah pressed his lips.

"It's ok…you don't need to tell if you feel uncomfortable" Elena said.

"no…I don't feel uncomfortable…it's just there isn't much to tell…Her name was Katherine Pierce

…my high school sweetheart …she wasn't exactly a good girl type …much like your ex boyfriend she was more of a trouble...I was completely in love with her …her flaws didn't matter much…last year I found out that she had been cheating on me for the past two years…"

"She started cheating on you …when you went away for college" Elena said with a gasp.

"Yes…so here I was, a wreck for almost a year…until finally 4 months ago I decided that I will move on…I will fall in love again…I will start a new life with a good girl not anything like Katherine and then I saw you…I could actually feel the pain you felt Elena …I wanted to wipe it away from your eyes…no matter what it takes…" he said with a sweet smile.

"Uhh…" Elena said uncomfortably. She smiled nervously as she looked away from his gaze.

"So dad tells me you are studying Cardiology…that's pretty impressive" Elena said as she ran fingers through her hair, changing the topic.

Elijah smiled at her. "Yes…I always wanted to become Cardiothoracic Surgeon …I am in my second year ...currently I am the topper of my class…which reminds me Dr Gilbert mentioned you also have interest in this field?"

"Actually I wanted to specialize in Neurosurgery…It's my passion... I have loved this field in fact I even studied a lot of it in advance not experimental of course, just the theory…I have about forty books on vascular , endovascular , stereotactic neurosurgery, functional neurosurgery, and epilepsy surgery and my personal favorite oncological neurosurgery " Elena said with a smile.

"Fascinating" Elijah complemented.

Elena blushed.

"Can I ask you something?" He said with a slight discomfort.

"Sure"

"I have seen what Mystic falls medical program offers and Neurology isn't listed in the programs that the college offers…so if say, your breakup with your ex didn't happen ...then what…you would have given up your dream?" he asked.

He could see sadness covering her feature. She bit her lip and didn't answer.

"It's unbelievable" Elijah said as his eyes widened. This girl was so in love with that guy that she would have left her career for him.

"Even after everything he did" Elijah said now with a little voice raised.

"He wasn't always like this…I didn't tell you one thing" Elena said as she ran fingers through her hair.

"What?"

"I busted him once…"

"I am sorry I don't get it"

"I told you that he was using drugs and everything after three months to my birthday….he was just

at verge of getting addicted …I hated it , of course, I never approved of that…but I didn't wanted him to get in trouble so I played along…until I noticed that he had been stealing from his father…I

let it pass…his dad noticed that someone was stealing money from the house…he knew it was Damon but he didn't had any proof…even at that point of life Damon never hid anything from me …he use to tell me everything…he couldn't pay back loan for his previous drugs and well he really needed it …so the guy who sold this stuff to Damon offered Damon to do his dirty work for him…that is selling that junk in parties and school and in return he will get what he needed ..And Damon agreed"

Elijah knew what was coming but he kept listening to the beautiful girl whose one hand was on her face as the memories haunted her.

"I panicked …this was a big step to the dark world…I couldn't let that happen…so I finally cracked …I went to Sheriff Forbes and his dad …I told them everything from start to end" she said as she winced.

"Oh Thank God!Elena you are here…There is this college party tonight that I need to go to…Tell my dad that I am going out with you and I will staying over at your house tonight" Damon said as he cupped her face.

He noticed Elena was shaking in fear.

"What happened honey?" he said as he narrowed his eyes. "Are you Okay?"

"I need to tell you something…" she said as she whimpered.

"Can't it wait for tomorrow…I told you I had to do this job for Kyle or he won't give me pills and I really need them" Damon said .He looked like he was in pain.

"I am sorry…I panicked …I told them everything …I told your dad and Sheriff Forbes …I know you will hate me now…but I can't let you do this…" Elena said as she started crying hysterically.

For a second he stood still, trying to absorb what she just said. Because, he trusted Elena with his life. She never told on him. This had to be a sick joke. But, the look on her face told otherwise.

His eyes widened as reality dawned upon him. He was screwed.

"Tell me you're lying…tell me this is sick joke…" he said in a very dangerous tone as he stepped closer.

She took a step back, as a reflex.

"Elena..Tell me this is joke" he said as he stepped further.

"I am sorry" she said in between sobs as she stepped back only to find herself trapped between him and the wall. His hands on either side of her. The look in his eyes was beyond dangerous. He punched the wall on her left side.

"No…you are not…but you are going to be sorry when I am done with you" he snarled as he held one of her hand and pressed it pretty hard .She felt immense pain. She knew he wasn't doing it on purpose. Her cry became louder.

He was pushed by someone. He fell on floor.

"Stay away from her" Stefan snarled at him as he stood between Elena and Damon.

"Your Knight in the shining armor is here to protect you" He spat .He picked up a vase on his side table and threw it on the opposite side of the room with full force, smashing it.

"I trusted you...Elena…" he spat as he looked directly at her who was still hiding behind a terrified Stefan.

"That's enough" Damon froze as he heard his father's voice.

"Back off Damon" Sheriff Forbes said.

"I told you to go home straight away…why you are here?" his father said sternly to Elena.

Elena just whimpered.

"You cunt…what the actual fuck do you think you were doing?" Giuseppe said as he turned toward a horror stricken Damon.

"So you have been doing drugs…I knew you were trouble when your mother dumped you here…as if It wasn't enough that I had to tolerate you …you decided to blacken my name further…My son …a Salvatore ..Is becoming a drug dealer…" his father continued.

He turned around once and, wham, slapped his son hard. Damon stood still. Elena winced. She didn't expect this at all. She looked at Sheriff Forbes to stop Giuseppe.

Sheriff Forbes didn't interrupt them at all.

He slapped his son again with so much force this time, that if he wasn't already taking support from the table nearby ,he might have fell.

"Mr. Salvatore …please don't hurt him" Elena choked.

Damon didn't even look at her. His eyes down. His breath uneven.

"Stefan…get Elena out of here" Sheriff Forbes said.

"They sent him off to a rehab …He came back after four months…he was completely different person…he didn't acknowledge me for a while after that…we came face to face twice but he would just ignore me as if I didn't exist…until of course…" Elena trailed off.

Elena was just coming out of her class. She was looking at her book, reading when she ran into someone.

Her books fell.

"Watch it …you dweeb" she muttered.

"I am sorry" a male voice said.

She looked up. Hazel eyes met chocolate brown.

"Oh…it's ok…" she said as she picked up her books from the floor. The boy in front of her bent down too to help her.

"Alec…right?" she said with a smile as she got up.

"Yes…Alec Gill …your Elena Gilbert" he said with a toothy grin.

Elena eyebrows rose in surprise but then she nodded.

"You are really beautiful" Alec complemented.

Elena beamed at him. "Thank you…"

"So..Elena…who are you going to the dance with?" Alec said as he started walking with her.

"I am sophomore…The dance is only for juniors and seniors…" Elena answered with sweet smile as she looked at him.

"Not if I can help it…Wanna go to the dance with me?" Alec asked.

"Woo! We just met…" Elena said with her eye brows raised.

"I am not asking you to marry me…it's just a dance…" Alec said with a cocky smirk.

"I would…" she trailed off as she saw Damon glaring at her murderously.

"Hey Elena!…hey the new guy in my class who I don't know…" he sounded cool but she could sense he was far from cool.

"Alec…" he reminded Damon with a toothy grin.

"So ..What were we talking about?" Damon asked he said looking directly at Elena.

"I was just asking Elena to go to the dance with me …" Alec said with a slight smile.

"Oh…you were asking MY girlfriend out on a dance…" Damon said with a deadly glare.

Alec eyes widened. He knew Damon Salvatore's reputation very well. He knew how bad this could get.

"I didn't know..She was your girlfriend…" Alec said in a panicked voice.

"She IS my girlfriend" Damon corrected.

"Alec…if I see you within 50 feet radius of Elena …I will kill you in your sleep" Damon threatened with the most fake smile he could muster. Frankly, it was scary.

"I am sorry…Bye Elena…"Alec said as he left, frightened. Elena turned around to move . Damon grabbed her wrist and yanked her closer to him.

"Failed to mention that you already had a boyfriend…" Damon said. "I was gonna say no to him…" Elena said as she rolled her eyes. "Sure..You were…"

"So you are talking to me now…" Elena asked.

He didn't reply.

"Damon…listen ...I am sorry…but I didn't have any choice…I was scared that those people might hurt you…" Elena said as she spoke hurriedly.

"Quit it Elena …I don't want to talk about that…"

"So…he started shutting you out…" Elijah said.

"Yes…he wouldn't let me go …but he wasn't with me completely too…after that...it was

downfall…he never cheated but he made sure I suffered…he barely spent time with me …heck..he barely came home…he was almost on verge of failing finals last year…Stefan and I helped him through that…In the mean time we found out that…he still hangouts with his good for nothing jerk friends…he even started the stupid street fighting again but this time he is very smart about it …he doesn't leave a single proof…so sheriff couldn't do anything about either…last month he broke Mr. Bennett's windshield because he spotted him with some of his old friends and threatened to tell Mr. Salvatore..And don't even get me started on what he did to Sheriff …" Elena said with a sigh.

"All the more reasons for you to stay away from him…" Elijah said.

"You have a promising future…just leave him be...you have done enough" Elijah continued.

"Yeah..I know"

"What do I do?" Damon asked Klaus and Caroline sitting on his either sides.

"uhh…for the love of God…for fuck sake…ugh…I just gave you a big lecture on the heart of women …and you ask me what should you do…." Caroline said as slapped her hand with her forehead.

"Yeah …I get that …but what do I actually do…" Damon said as his eye brow rose.

"How did you ask her first time?" Klaus questioned.

"He didn't …he forced her to go out with him…followed her around…annoyed the fuck out of us" Caroline said as she drank from his bottle.

"How romantic…" Klaus said as he snorted.

"I don't know how to do these things ok…" Damon said now a bit embarrassed .

"text her…something sweet…" Caroline said.

"ok…" Damon said .

"I need to use restroom…Klaus help him out.." Caroline said as she left.

Damon took his phone and started typing. Klaus offered him his valuable advice. "Start with a joke" .

Wanna Bang?( ) - Damon

Sorry autocorrect! Wanna Hang? ¯\_()_/¯ -Damon

"Seriously where is Rosetta…Your restroom reeks…" Caroline said.

"So what did you text her.." Caroline asked.

"We texted her some stuff but she won't answer" Damon said.

"Really..What did you send her?" she said as she snatched his phone.

She smacked herself repeatedly.

"What the hell is this …I told you to send something cute like …I just want to see you once or some other sweet thing…this isn't sweet…this is creepy" Caroline nearly shouted .

"It was Klaus's idea..." Damon said as he glared at Klaus.

"But this works on you.. Care bear…" Klaus said with a confused look.

"I am surrounded by idiots" Caroline said with a growl.

This is mainly a filler chapter. In about 4-5 chapters…the story will end…

The Jealous Ex Boyfriend

Chapter 10

"You did what?" Stefan nearly shouted.

"Relax ...Drama Queen…I just said I am going out with Elijah on a date" Elena replied as she sat next to him on her bed.

"On a date …with that jerk…Elena…What is the matter with you?"

"Shush…he will hear…he is next door" Elena said with a glare.

"I don't care…Lena…That son of bitch took advantage and asked you out as soon as he saw me out of picture…"

"He is good guy…" Elena said. "It's just a date nothing serious…" Elena added.

Stefan narrowed his eyes.

"And look at this …your brother sent me this" Elena said as she threw her phone to him. Stefan catches it. He chuckled as he read all the texts.

"Drunk Damon is so creepy" Stefan said.

"How are you feeling now?" Elena said as she put her hand on his forehead to check his fever. "Fit as a horse"

"So now back to Elijah…Why on earth would you want to go out with that Douchenozzle ?"

"Oh for goodness sake Stef…it's just two friends going out on a dinner nothing fancy nothing serious" Elena said as she got up.

"Wake up …Professor Cuntsworth" Klaus said he said he shook Damon frantically.

"What the hell Klaus…there better be a good reason for waking me up …" Damon growled.

"There is…we have class…" Klaus said.

"Oh…yeah..College crap…" Damon said as he got up.

"Caroline is throwing a party " Klaus said.

"Oh yeahhhh" Damon said with mock enthusiasm.

"Elena will be there for sure…you guys can talk " Klaus said.

"Yeah like she will ever listen to me…"

Klaus phone buzzed. He picked up the call with a huge grin.

"Miss me already, Love!" Klaus said playfully. However his expressions became serious after a minute.

"Oh…hmm…no…It's ok…Will I see you after the party?"

Damon rolled his eyes. "Seriously, here I am suffering my breakup and there they are shoving their relationship in my face...so insensitive." he thought.

"Ok...Then …I will see you tomorrow" Klaus said as he hung up.

"What? Girlfriend uninvited you…" Damon said with a smirk.

"Actually she uninvited you...Since we are sort of package deal so simultaneously I get uninvited as well" Klaus said clearly now not in a good mood.

"Why am I uninvited?" Damon asked as he they started going downstairs.

Klaus sighed and then pressed his lips.

"What?" Damon asked narrowing his eyes.

"Elena is going to the party with Elijah…apparently they are coming as a date…Care is still on your side but she doesn't want any trouble" Klaus said without looking at his friend.

"As a date" Damon repeated. He curled his upper lip to keep him from speaking. The feel of jealousy, insecurity and anger growing into his skin, filling his blood making his eyes go dark and his mouth became a straight line.

"but you aren't gonna do anything…Elijah is my brother" Klaus added.

"Let's just go" Damon said as he hurriedly left.

Caroline was freaking out. This party was originally for Elena and Damon to makeup until Elijah came along and ruined the original purpose. She was terrified of how Damon would take the news. He wasn't exactly the sharing type as far as she remembered.

She got text from Klaus that said they were coming. Caroline looked at Elena who was dancing with Stefan as Elijah stood by the table of drinks watching them.

"Are they really coming here?" Bonnie asked.

"That's what Nik said …" Caroline said with a sigh.

"He is here…I will go …keep a check on him…" Bonnie said.

Damon and Klaus entered not even faking a smile.

"Hey" Bonnie said as she hugged both men turn by turn.

She could see Damon's eyes searching for Elena and stopped as he spotted her on the dance floor with Stefan.

"Don't …" Bonnie said .

"I am not gonna snap…stop treating me like a time bomb" Damon said as he moved toward the drink table.

He stopped immediately as he saw Elijah who was too busy ogling his ex girlfriend.

"Can you be more desperate?" Damon hissed.

Elijah snapped out of his moment.

"I can ask you the same question" Elijah said with a smirk.

"Listen to me you fuckhead…the only reason your standing on your feet till now even after asking out my girlfriend is the fact that you're my best friend's brother…Elena loves me …don't create issues for us and get out of town…this is your last warning…if I see you with her after tonight..I wouldn't even care your Klaus's brother…" Damon threatened in a low tone but loud enough for Elijah to hear.

"See that's the kind of behavior Elena hates about you… but don't worry I am different person I will keep her happy" Elijah said with a smirk unaffected by his threat.

"Do you even know how dangerous I am…" Damon asked.

"Oh …I know everything …from your drugs drama to your street fighting capabilities…"

"Then you should now …that I will tear your limb from limb, break every bone in your body into two pieces and will get away with it unless you leave my girl alone" Damon said in a dark tone.

"See Damon I am different than the usual jerks in your town that you scare off with your empty threats"

"Oh my threats aren't empty at all" Damon retorted.

"Did Klaus failed to mention that I have got a black belt in taekwondo…touch me and you will regret it" Elijah said with a smile that Damon hated.

"We will see about that" Damon said as he noticed Elena coming towards them.

"Hey" Damon greeted.

"Hi" she answered warmly. His heart skipped a beat.

"You look beautiful" Damon commented as he eyed her. She was wearing a red lace mini dress paired up with heels.

"Thank you "she said as she smiled but then turned her attention to Elijah.

"Do you want something to eat?" Elena asked.

Damon bit his lower lip at her attention swap. This drove him insane. Elena had always been his girl. Her attention, her love, her affections had always been for him. It took every ounce of control he had not to snap at that point.

"Wanna dance?" he offered Elena.

"You don't like to dance" Elena said turning to him.

"I changed my mind"

"You have been doing that a lot lately" Elijah commented.

Damon glared at him.

"Hey…Damon bear…big fella …long time no see…let's dance" Bonnie said as she dragged him away.

"What was that?" Damon asked as Bonnie forced him to dance.

"Look we don't want any trouble OK?…" Bonnie said gravely.

"Please…"

"Bonnie" Damon whined.

"Damon relax…just give her some time"

"I don't have much time …she will leave in about two weeks" he said as he winced at the thought.

"She won't …Care convinced her to stay for a month…"

"Oh …Thank God…" Damon said with a sigh.

"Don't look now but she is looking at you..." Bonnie said.

Damon grinned. "She is"

"Yes…"

He immediately turns around and caught Elena looking at him. She instantly looked away.

"Did I mention I love you and Care..." Damon said with a smirk .His mood finally better.

"No you didn't but don't bother …" Bonnie said with a smile.

He looked again at Elena only to find her dancing with the Elijah. Damon growled.

"Son of a bitch"

"Chill dude… At least you know she wishes it was you" Bonnie said with a small smile.

"Have you ever walked bare foot over hot embers or stones?" Damon questioned Bonnie with a frown.

"umm…no.."

"Well …that's how I feel right now…If only I could get my hands on him and strangle him" Damon said with a scowl.

"Oh my god…Damon…quit it …you're scaring me…you are so obsessed with Elena" Bonnie said as her eyes were wide open due to Damon's previous comment.

"Really…What would you do…if Enzo dumps you and then dances with some hot chic right in front of your very eyes…" Damon said with a smirk.

Bonnie clenched her fist at that thought.

"I will kill that bitch" Bonnie answered.

"That's my girl" Damon said, slightly amused.

"If you are feeling that bad then just leave" Bonnie suggested, feeling genuinely sad as she saw him steal another glance of her friend.

"I can't leave her here with him" Damon said.

"I will get Stefan to keep him away from her…somehow Stefan hates the guy too" Bonnie said with a chuckle.

"Baby bro feels threatened that someone might steal his best friend…" Damon said as he looked at Stefan who was talking to a blonde.

"Should I get Klaus?" Bonnie said.

"Nope…he is busy with Barbie there…" Damon said as he saw Klaus literally gazing at the blonde girl with a goofy smile plastered on his face as Caroline talked continuously to a girl without noticing Klaus.

"Will you…" he trailed off as he thought this might be a bit awkward.

"Yes ..I will text you if Elena asks about you or talks about you or anything related to you…I will make sure Elijah and Elena don't get cozy tonight…" Bonnie said with a smirk. "You know me too well" Damon said with a smirk. "See you later, Judgy"

He looked at Elena, one last time .She was busy laughing at something Elijah said. He bit his lip as he turned around to leave.

He sat there in an almost empty grill, feeling immensely depressed. When a black haired boy about seventeen took seat next to him. He looked at the boy next to him and sighed. Jeremy Gilbert smiled.

"Could this day get any worse?" Damon said as he covered his face with his hands.

"Hello prick…Long time no see…" Jeremy said with a smirk.

"Shouldn't you be at Lockwood's place for a group study" Damon said.

"I should…but I was tired so I was just gonna go home "Jeremy replied.

Jeremy and Damon were surprisingly close to each other .Their friendship unaffected by age difference. Jeremy had gone through same rough period as Damon. He like Damon got himself in drugs trouble and a couple of street fights. Before he could get caught up in real mess. It was Damon who kept him from getting into trouble and kept an eye on him in case Jeremy crossed the line again. He was like an elder brother figure for Jeremy.

"aha…" Damon said as he sipped from his bottle.

"What got you so pissed?"

"We both know the answer to that don't we"

"Yeah…well I am not too happy about it either…" Jeremy replied with a sigh.

"You are going with her as well…aren't you?" Damon asked his one eye brow raised.

"Richmond yes…New York no..." Jeremy said with a frown.

"So Elijah is alive …surprisingly" Jeremy added with a smirk.

"He is Klaus's elder brother" Damon answered. "I can't exactly beat him to pulp but we will have a little talk on boundaries." Damon answered slightly darkly.

"I hate that guy…this morning he called me little kid in front of Anna and my group…" Jeremy said with anger filled voice.

Damon chuckled.

Jeremy glared at him and then smirked.

"And you should seriously take pointers from him …the way he flirts with Lena …Elena your fragrance is like morning breeze…I don't need sunshine when I can see the brightest smile on your face…oh Elena I would wish to just look into your eyes for the rest of my eternity" Jeremy said with evil grin.

Damon clenched his teeth.

"Does he really say that stuff to her?" Damon hissed.

"Oh much worst…he is like a British Ryan Gosling…" Jeremy said with a grin.

Damon pressed his lips refraining from talking.

"Last night he asked me that he wanted to treat Elena with the best dinner of her life …so he wanted me to help" Jeremy said with a continuous grin.

Damon clenched his fists.

"I told him he should order a mushroom pizza, bottle of chardonnay and watch "P.S I love you" …" Jeremy said with a grin.

Damon suddenly grinned.

"P.S I love you …she can't watch that movie without crying every five minutes and she hates Chardonnay …and the best touch Elena is allergic to mushroom pizza…." Damon said .He started laughing as he thought about the total disaster Elijah's night was going to be.

"They should be home by now…" Jeremy said in between hysterically laughing and drinking.

"Imagine…Elijah's expression when Elena starts crying even before intro credits" Damon said as he imagined Elijah's horror struck expression.

"And Elena hates chardonnay…she can't even stand its smell…" Jeremy said still laughing hysterically.

"And as soon as she eats pizza…" Damon trailed off, as he stopped laughing instantly.

Elena was allergic to mushroom pizza. Last time when Elena accidentally, ate mushroom pizza at Stefan's party she suffered serious diarrhea, cramping, abdominal pain and vomited three days straight.

"You son of bitch…what are you trying to do... kill her?" Damon said in an extremely angry tone.

"hey..hey..I thought you will be glad.." Jeremy said with his hand raised at his sudden change of tone.

"yes…I hate that guy but that doesn't mean I am willing to put Lena through pain…" Damon said as he took out his phone to call Elena.

She didn't pick up.

He texted her. " It's mushroom pizza…don't eat it-Damon"

She didn't reply. "She might have blocked my number because of the little stunt I pulled yesterday" Damon thought. His heart sank at that thought.

"Jer..call your sister…tell her about the pizza and apologize now" Damon said in a dark tone.

"she won't pick up" Jeremy said.

Damon nervously called her again, praying to God she is ok.

She picks up.

"Hey…"

"Elena …don't eat the damn pizza that fuckhead ordered …it's filled with mushrooms…it was Jer's idea of a prank on you " Damon said in a hurry.

"Oh…oh my God" Elena gasped.

"Don't tell me you've already ate" Damon said with an addition of groan.

"No..No..I haven't ...Are you with Jer, right now…" Elena asked.

"Yeah…he is sorta drunk …I will drop him off to your place in awhile …if you two are done for the night" Damon said with a bit venom in the last part.

"No…Stef and Bonnie are here too (Damon smirks) …please drop him off" Elena said, clearly sensing the venom in his voice in the last part.

"Ok..See you in awhile" Damon said clearly more cheerful.

"Love you …bye" he added out of habit, suddenly realizing his mistake

She didn't reply as she hung up.

"I am not drunk" Jeremy said with a frown.

"I know…" Damon said with a smirk.

"Creepy son of bitch" Jeremy said.

Elena rushed to the door when she heard someone knock. She opened the door. She frowned as she saw Jeremy whose face was covered by his hands and an amused Damon.

It wasn't the first time obviously, last year; Damon would drag Jeremy home on daily basis from someplace where all the town junkies held their stoner parties.

"I believe this belong to you" Damon said as he slightly pushed Jeremy inside.

"Drunk on a school night …what were you thinking, Jer?" Elena said in firm tone.

"Don't worry …I lectured him enough…let the kid sleep" Damon said with a smirk.

"Jer …Room…Now" Elena said.

Jeremy groaned as he walked passed her.

"Later, motherfucker" Jeremy said once before he went upstairs.

"Jer...Language" Elena called back after him.

"I am sorry" Elena said as she looked back at Damon who still standing on her door, running fingers through his hair.

"Nah…it's ok…" he said with his trademark smirk.

"Hey...Damon…" Bonnie said coming toward them.

"Can you give me a ride …apparently my ride is staying over at Care's place to help her cleanup" Bonnie said as she rolled her eyes.

"Klaus is staying over at Barbie's place to help her clean up…we all know what that means.." Damon said with a grin.

"But we are having a sort of after party here for a while …you are welcome to join us" Bonnie offered with a wink.

"Oh…sure…I guess I don't have a choice" Damon said as he entered.

Elena glared at Bonnie. Bonnie just shrugged.

Stefan spat out his drink when he saw his brother entering Elena's living room followed by Bonnie and Elena.

Elijah glared at Damon.

Elena ran her fingers through her hair as she saw Damon looking at Elijah with a frown.

She had invited a few friends over. Bonnie, Matt, Enzo, Rebecca, Kol and Kourtney.

"Hey" Enzo greeted.

Enzo and Bonnie were only friends of Elena that Damon genuinely liked.

"Let's get you a beer" Enzo said to break the awkward silence.

"Sure" Damon said as he followed Enzo to the kitchen.

"Bonnie invited him..She needed a ride" Elena said as she sat down next to Stefan.

"I thought Enzo was going to drop her off" Rebecca said as she raised her eyebrows.

"Leave that…we were in the middle of something…you were telling us how you met Elena" Kol said changing the topic and regretting it the next second when Damon and Enzo came back .

Both of them however took seats in the back of the room a little far from the group.

"umm… yes that …so I took Elena out to the clinic I was working for…I must tell you she is a wonderful nurse …though I didn't allow her to attend serious patients …Dr Gilbert would have murdered me for that but she did stay and she learnt a lot…Elena is very quick learner" Elijah said as he looked at Elena.

"So Bonnie what are your plans for college..?" Elijah said as he smiled at the black haired girl.

"Oh…I will be staying in Mystic Falls…I am offered scholarship here at college …I will be studying Business Administration" Bonnie replied with a kind smile.

"That is very impressive ..." Elijah said with a smile.

Bonnie blushed.

"Becca..here has no idea what she will do after high school…you should really learn from your friends…just look at Bonnie …she is amazing…Although ,Bonnie ! I must insist you join us in New York, our college offers the best Business Administration Program" Elijah said.

"I will think about it" Bonnie said with a shrug.

Enzo clenched his teeth.

"I know how you feel buddy…"Damon said with a sigh.

Rebecca groaned.

"Seriously …you are worst then mum" she added.

"You know what let's play a game …what say? Twenty questions?" Kol said.

"I am up for it…" Stefan said desperate to change the topic again.

"Let's change it a bit…instead of asking question from the person about himself let's ask questions about each other like…let's see how much we know each other?" Kourtney suggested.

"Ok…Bonnie…what is Stefan's favorite movie?" Kol asked.

"umm..The amazing Spider man" Bonnie answered.

"Correct" Stefan answered with a grin.

"Stefan's favorite color?"

" Gray" Bonnie answered.

"Stefan's favorite sexual position "Kol asked with a grin.

"For the last time…we never hooked up" Bonnie said as she blushed furiously.

Stefan blushed too.

Kol, Rebecca and Elena laughed at their awkwardness.

"Pass…"Bonnie said

"Ok…Elena your turn…same question Stefan's favorite sexual position" Kol asked.

"How the hell will she know that..." Damon said with glare.

"Reverse cow girl riding" Elena whispered the answer.

Damon eyes widened. Stefan looked away.

"How the hell does she know that?" Damon shouted shocked.

"We talk ok…she is my best friend" Stefan answered.

"Discussing sexual positions" Enzo said.

"Chill …ok…we might have discussed this stuff once or twice" Stefan said looking away.

"Ok..Next question…What does Stefan prefer …giving oral to the girl or getting oral from her?" Kol asked with a smirk.

Damon hissed. Elijah looked away where as Elena blushed.

"I know the answer to that but pass…I admit defeat" Elena replied.

"Elijah your turn" Kol said.

"I don't know anything about Stefan and his sexual preferences" Elijah said with his both hands raised in surrender form.

"I will change the questions for you…umm…What's Elena's dream job?" Kol asked with a smirk.

Damon looked away again concentrating on his drink.

"To become a neurosurgeon" Elijah answered proudly.

"Elena's favorite flowers?" Kol asked.

"Roses"

"Wrong…She likes orange wild tiger lilies" Damon answered from the corner.

"ooookkk… Elena's favorite drink?" Kol asked.

"Chardonnay" Elijah answered.

"Wrong again…she hates Chardonnay …she can't even stand its smell…she likes light beer since its least fattening Alcoholic drink" Damon answered again from the back in a sing-song voice.

"I am under impression that you want to show me that you know a lot about Elena" Elijah said with a chuckle.

"Yup" Damon said as he got up and walk toward them

"I can read Elena like a book…I know when she runs her fingers through her hair she is

nervous…I know when she isn't looking directly into your eyes when she is talking to you that

means she is lying…I know when Elena gives a loop side smile …it's a fake smile …I know she

can only sleep on the right side of the bed…I know when she says it's nothing but what she

actually means is hug me hard and tell me it's going to be ok without asking me any

questions..Elena doesn't like it when someone complements her all the time she thinks its

fake…Elena is very possessive of the people she loves...Elena is terrible at driving, swimming and

football but she is awesome at cooking, playing online games and cheering up people…she talks

a lot and by a lot I mean a lot …so much that she will put Caroline to shame …but that is only

when she is attracted to someone or someone she loves…When anyone says something flattering

to her and she knows that you mean it she looks in your eyes she blushes and then she looks

away as she smile…so yeah in the end there is no one in this world who knows Elena better than I

do not even Stefan…" Damon said with a slight smirk as he finished.

"Wow man…you can write a book about Elena here" Kol complemented breaking the silence that filled the room.

"Bonnie…we should go ..." Damon said. Bonnie stood up and side hugged Elena.

"I will see you tomorrow" Bonnie said.

Stefan and Elena nodded.

Damon noticed Elijah looking away. He refrained himself from grinning.

As he left, he looked back at Elena , one last time. She was also looking at him intently. She bit her lip as she looked away.

"Way to go" Bonnie complemented him with a grin as they came out.

So , that's it for today ...

The Jealous Ex Boyfriend

Chapter 11

"Wake up…Sleeping Beauty" Elena heard her favorite voice murmur in her ear.

She smiled.

"Five more minutes"

"Aww…but you will be late" he said.

"Please…" she said still in her sleep.

"Wake up…already" he said as he carefully, sat down on his knees and slowly removed her hair from her face.

"Damon…Please let me sleep" she murmured. He smirked. "3…2…1..."

She became stiff. Her eyes fluttered open.

"Damon..." she asked as if she was unsure he was here in her room, actually waking her up.

Damon grinned.

Elena shrieked as she got away from him. He rose up back on his feet amused by her reaction. It's been two days to the party. He didn't see her even once after that. He tried to call her but she didn't pick up. He figured she was mad at him for his rude behavior with her umm… (Grunt) her guest.

"What …What are you doing in here …in my room?" she said as she tried to cover her almost naked self from him.

She was wearing a lace black camisole paired up with her cotton boy short underwear. She sees

him eyeing her with an evil smirk.

"Stop looking at me like that" she growled.

"Please…It's not anything new…" he says with a shrug.

"I repeat what are you doing here?" Elena said as she covered herself from his lingering gaze.

"Why are you hiding yourself from me as if it's my first time to see you naked…jeez Elena if I see something new I will throw a dollar at it"

That did it, she look enraged.

"Damon…" she warned.

"Oh..Yeah…I almost forgot…you have an exam today and you overslept…You have about ten minutes to reach school..(her color fades)..Stef said you weren't there yet, he was worried so he asked me to check on you "Damon said with a smirk.

"Oh my God…Oh my God…Oh My God" she shouted as she pushed off her covers and jumped out her bed , completely not caring at all if she was almost naked and her ex boyfriend was enjoying the view.

"Why didn't you wake me up earlier" she shouted as she rushed to bathroom.

"If you didn't notice …I was trying to but you won't wake up …" he replied in a sing song voice.

"Oh my God..Oh my God" she ranted as she quickly showered.

He fought the argue to join her because clearly

She was already late for her exam

They broke up

He pressed his lips tightly at that thought.

Then he remembered something. Elena always needs caffeine to function properly. He went down to her kitchen and started making her favorite type of coffee for her. Thank God, she already had a coffee maker machine, gifted by Stefan of course (groan).Stefan was always better with giving useful gifts to her then he ever could.

She rushed down the stairs with her pink bag back to Damon's annoyance. "I swear sometimes she is too girly" he thought.

"Elena…coffee "He shouted after her.

He handed her, her mug. She took it hurriedly. "I have five minutes" she panicked.

"Actually you have twenty" Damon said with a grin.

"What?" she barked.

He winked at her. Elena picked up her phone and checked time. She sighed. Then she looked up at him and her nostrils flared.

"Hey don't be mad…You would have took forever to get ready" He said with a shrug.

"Sick plan" she hissed.

"Hurry up…I have to drop you off then I have to go home and get ready for my class as well" he said with an annoyed look.

"I don't need you to drop me off…Jer's car is here …I will drive myself" Elena replied in a sharp tone.

"No..Honey …the last thing I will ever let you do is drive…remember last time when you almost ran over the cop who tried to stop you for a speeding ticket "Damon said with a smirk.

"OK…that was one time" Elena shouts.

"You wanna argue or you wanna go give your exam?" he asked in a serious tone.

"Fine…" she mutters as she finishes her coffee.

Damon smirked. Winning arguments from Elena had always been his specialty.

She ran her fingers through her almost dried hair. Her long beautiful wavy locks fell down to her back. She wasn't wearing any makeup, not even lip gloss and her eye liner, yet she looked so beautiful.

"If you're done staring at me …lets go" she snapped, with a little blush on her cheeks at his dazed gaze.

He came back to reality and turned around.

"Sure…"

Damon halted his car in front of her school. He looked over at Elena whose eyes were shut and was chanting whatever she memorized in a low tone.

"We are here….with five minutes to spare" He said loud with a grin.

She fluttered open her eyes. "Oh God..Oh God" she gasped in a low voice. Damon rolled his eyes.

Elena always had exam anxiety. She would freak out to max and yet she managed to be at top of her class. He knew how to calm her down.

She slowly motioned to unlock her door. He held her wrist. She looked back at him.

"Take a deep breath"

She obeyed.

"Relax" he said as he cupped her face. She closed her eyes and breath in. "Open your eyes...You go out there ,do an awesome job and beat the hell out of everyone on those tests…you studied your butt out..You are the star student…you can do it" he said with a smirk.

She exhaled as she relaxed.

She smiled.

"Thank you" she whispered .He removed his hands from her face reluctantly. It's been awhile he had seen that smile on her face and he was proud being the reason of that smile. "All the best" he called after her as she left.

She looked one last time at Damon was looking at her intently. She bit her lip as she walked toward her school suddenly too confident.

A week had passed. He had three weeks left to show her he was worth it. He was worth being in her life. Elena was done with her exams. She didn't visit Salvatore Boarding House anymore at all. From what he gathered Elijah was now residing with Klaus instead of Gilberts until his volunteer work finishes.

He didn't bother Elena during her exams instead he paid attention to his almost failed semester and tried to finish his pile of work to at least pass with acceptable grades. His finals were in about three months so he had enough time to get back with Elena and work hard to pass his finals. Yes, goals for now.

The blonde girl sitting next to him touched his shoulder to snap him out of his thoughts. Damon rolled his eyes. He was here waiting for Klaus who was obviously running too late.

He noticed her hand still on his bicep. She smiled at him. Yes, he loved attention especially from the opposite gender but right now it wasn't too appealing.

He didn't even notice when the girl's other hand slipped on his thigh. What he did notice was wide eyed Elena standing right in front of him with Bonnie and Enzo.

He saw red in her eyes. He saw hurt written all over her face. He saw her cheeks burn. She was furious, extremely jealous and disappointed. Elena's teeth clenched. She fought back all the tears that were just begging to come out. She felt her heart drop. She would lie if she says she hasn't reconsidered her decision to move out of Mystic Falls. She might have even considered getting back with her ex boyfriend but the very sight right in front of her eyes mocked her recent thoughts.

She looked away and followed Enzo and Bonnie to their usual table.

Damon excused himself from the girl that he barely knew and walked over to his ex girlfriend's table nervously. He had to clear it with her that He wasn't even listening to that blonde girl next to him and he was barely aware of her presence.

"Care already promised me a whole new wardrobe …so We will be going shopping tomorrow …I urgently need really good new stuff before I move to Richmond" she explained to Bonnie who rolled her eyes.

Damon felt a sick feeling in his stomach as he heard her speak about her plans excitedly. "You aren't going anywhere" Bonnie said with a pout.

"ok … ok …leave that how about we…" she trailed off as she saw Damon approaching their table.

"Hey" Bonnie greeted him. "Join us" Enzo added . Elena just gave him a warm smile. Fake smile of course, She couldn't fool him. He smirked. Yup, she was jealous. He could feel the heat radiating from her and in a sick twisted he enjoyed it. At least, that meant she still loved him.

"Hey "Damon answered with a proud smirk.

She looked away. "How were your finals?" He asked looking at all three of them but everyone on the table knew for who the question was

"Well…Calculus screwed me "Enzo commented.

"And my goals were to get just acceptable grades so…I am good with whatever the shit I did…" Bonnie said.

"Elena?" he asked as he offered her smile.

"Yeah…it was ok" she said without even sparing him a look.

"Just ok?" Damon said, just trying to keep the conversation going.

"We will go get a drink…help me Enzo" Bonnie said as she got up. Enzo held her hand and walked toward the counter.

"It wasn't what it looked like" Damon blurted.

"Excuse me?"

"That chic …I didn't know she was sitting with me" he explained.

"I am sorry …I don't know why are you telling me this?" she said again without looking at him.

"Quit it…Lena you can fool everyone but you can't fool me … I know you're so jealous right now…you want to go rip her head off" he said with a smirk.

She smiled. She finally looked at him.

"Whatever helps you sleep buddy" she said.Epic Burn

"So you have no problem…if I go over there to that blonde chic who offered to sleep with me …just about five minutes ago" He snarled.

He saw her stiffen up. She looked at him this time. She opened her mouth and was about to say something.

"Elena" Caroline said with an almost squeak as she almost sprinted toward them.

"You need to come with me now… "Caroline squeaked again in happiness.

Damon clenched his fists reminding himself that no matter how much this pimp was a waste of space she was still his friend and in no way will it be acceptable for him to hit a woman no matter what.

"I got this amazing classic Prada bag" she showed a Prada-Saffiano-Lux-Tote-Bag to a smiling Elena who complemented it immediately.

"It's too cute…It will look awesome with you" Elena said . Caroline grinned.

"I will tell you how I got..Damon be a dear and get us drinks" Caroline said.

"Sure.." he said in a dark tone.

"Never mind …I will help you "Caroline said as she grabbed his arm and literally almost dragged him away.

"I was just making progress…" Damon hissed as they reached counter.

He turned back to see Elena who was now chatting with Bonnie and Enzo again.

"I have an mind blowing offer for you…how would you like to go take Elena and me to shopping" she said. If he wasn't so angry he would have laughed.

"Hear me out…"

"I will bail on you two…take her shopping …spend some time with her…and maybe you and she might work things out…" Caroline said.

"A trip to local mall isn't exactly I was expecting when you said you had a mind blowing offer" Damon said through his teeth.

"Alexandria…"

"That's like two hour drive…and that is perfect…" Damon said with smirk.

"Yeah…I know…" she said with smirk.

"You know she just saw me with some girl here...no nothing like that ...I wasn't even aware she was there…So here I see red Elena staring at me…and she was jealous you know…" Damon said as he picked up their drinks.

"Oh really…" Caroline said, a little amused.

"She was just going to admit she was jealous…until you interrupted us..." Damon said in an annoyed tone.

"Oh…well…looks like it's your turn to get a little jealous…" she said with a smirk.

He turned around immediately and found Elijah sitting in front of Elena. "Karma is a bitch" Caroline said as she took both the drinks from his hands and walked passed him. He followed her.

"Hey Elijah…" Caroline greeted him. Elijah just replied with a smile.

"You remember Damon" Caroline said as she motioned toward not so amused man behind her.

"I don't think …I will ever forget" Elijah answered with a chuckle.

Damon stole a glance of the brunette who was busy texting someone on phone. "Who is she texting…? Her dad .. or probably Jer…or Stefan or some other guy …. Nope not thinking about

it…" he thought

"I should get home now…it's been a long day" Elena said with a smile as she got up.

"Damon will drop you" Bonnie offered. Damon shrugged.

"Oh no…he is busy tonight...his friend over there just waved at him "Elijah said as he pointed behind him.

Damon turned around and found that blonde girl waving at him. He looked back at Elena whose lips were pressed tight, she wasn't looking at him. Red Elena again.

"It's ok…she will find someone else to keep her company" Damon answered with a smirk.

"I will drop you off" Elijah offered Elena in a very kind tone.

Damon restrained himself from growling .Elena declined kindly.

"It's ok…Elijah …I will walk home" she said.

"No…it's pretty dark…you can't walk home now…" Damon said trying everything to remain calm.

"Oh come on buddy … stay here with us …Elijah take Elena home please …Will you do us a favor ?" Enzo said ignoring deadly glares from both Bonnie and Damon.

"See…that's what I said…Let's get you home , beautiful" he said with a smile.

It took all his control and literally all his control to not snap at that point.

She passes by him without looking at him. Elijah follows.

Damon bit his tongue to refrain himself from shouting and creating a scene.

"OK…I know you are mad at me" Enzo said

"Don't talk ...right now …Please" Damon said.

"Look dude…she didn't look like she wanted to be with you" Enzo said.

"Yes..Thank you that is just the kind of support I need" Damon snapped.

"Relax…" Bonnie said as she held his hand.

"Your boyfriend is an idiot" I almost growled.

Enzo looked pissed.

"Chill boys…you have tomorrow right?" Caroline said.

"I hope so"

-"Are you kidding me…? You told me…you will meet us outside Mystic Falls…and now you are telling me you are bailing out on me …and you're leaving me alone with him of all people" Elena nearly barked in her phone.

"Hey…I am right here…" Damon said as he drove faster.

"Yes…exactly …my point …he is right here with me. That's my point…why is he here with me?" Elena barked again.

"Lena…I swear …something really important came up…You know I will never miss shopping" Caroline pleaded.

"You told me …that Klaus will take us …then you said that Klaus is sending Damon just to pick me then you said you are outside Mystic Falls and we have to pick you up …and now you are saying that this whole time you were lying and now you're out of town with your mum for a family gathering…" Elena said in loud annoyed tone.

"Sorry…Lena..Anyway …enjoy your trip bye" she replied as she hung up.

Elena groaned. Damon pressed his lips together.

"I want to go back home" she said.

"Why …so you could spend time with your new boyfriend" Damon spat.

"He is not my boyfriend…and why do you even care…" she said .

"You know damn well why I care"

"I am not going anywhere with you…turn around or I will jump out of this car" she threatened.

He halted his car immediately.

For the first time in a long time she was scared of him. His eyes softened when he saw her terrified face.

"Three months ago…you would beg me to take you shopping and now you would rather jump out of car then be with me "he said in a strong tone but his eyes gave him away. The looks in his eyes were so hurt. His dark, colorless eyes that showed his pain and longing.

She immediately looked away.

"Will you at least not look away?" he said clearly fighting his anger.

"What do you think Damon…a road trip is gonna fix us …we are cancer to each other"

"no ..We just have issues…we are right for each other …we are perfect for each other" he said with a sigh.

"I don't want to fight…five years are enough…" she said.

He bit his lower really hard.

"I can't even think of living without you…" he whispered.

"That's because you are just not use to it yet"

"Is it that easy for you? To leave me behind" he said.

"So that's why we are here…you brought me here all alone to convince me not to go because you think you can't live without me" she said for the first time looking at him.

"yes…but not anymore…tell you what…I will take you on shopping and any other shit stuff that I hate but I will tolerate that for you …we will just enjoy the day and come back ...like …(he shuddered) just friends"

"what?"

"I will be your friend for the day…like Stefan" Damon said.

"and what about when we come back"

"Then…I will go back to pinning after you and you go back to ignoring me" he said with a smirk as he started driving again.

He didn't care anymore. He didn't care about the nature of their relationship. All he cared was that she was here with him and he will make sure to make this day memorable.

"How does this look?" Elena said as she came out of trial room. No, the question wasn't for Damon, she was asking the pretty sales girl.

"It looks hot…" she said.

"Come on Hayley …help me out here …" Elena said as she twirled in her pink skater dress.

Hayley smiled.

"You look very pretty in it…" she said.

"Would you do me in this ?" Elena asked.

"Elena…" Damon nearly hissed.

"huh…probably but that's just a girls opinion …why don't you ask your extremely hot boyfriend over there?" Hayley said.

"Oh..No…we aren't together" Damon smirk fades as he heard her.

"Oh…well you should probably think about…he obviously looks at you like I look at booze and I love booze" Hayley said with a slight smirk.

"uh..So what about the dress red or pink?" Elena said.

"Hey Jackson…" Hayley shouts.

"You got to be kidding me" Damon whispered as he got up to Elena's side.

Damon is looking at the guy as if daring him to complement.

"Jackson…In which color will she look more do able?" Hayley asked not even a bit intimated by the by the man who really looked pissed off.

"I mean pink is cute but red is more do able…" Hayley said to the guy next to her.

"show me the red one…" Jackson said.

Damon face palmed.

Yes, he regretted it. Here was the third hour gone to waste, while she tries on dress after dress…clearly enjoying herself while he was there sulking and regretting his words about being just a friend tonight. No expectations. No sudden declaration of undying love from her.

She comes out of trail room wearing red lace bralet crop top paired up with red Valentino Black Lace Skater Skirt which looked extremely sexy. He felt his pants harden. "Oh God no" he thought. "Think of disgusting things…things like Klaus's nose hair…Stefan's feet ….Enzo's face…yuck…yup much better" he thought.

"I will do you in red "Jackson said .

"What?" Damon snarled.

"Chill…no harm intended…" Hayley says.

"see…I like pink too Jack…it's more innocent…and she has got that look that will make you bend down on your knees" Hayley said in a professional tone.

"Why don't you just buy both?" Damon said clearly irritated.

"I can't…I don't have enough cash left" Elena said sheepishly.

"Fine…I will buy this…" Damon said.

"No…you can't do that" Elena said suddenly flushed.

"It's really ok..Consider this an early birthday gift" he said with a smile as he pulled out his wallet.

"Well…in that case…we have the most beautiful matching wedges " Hayley said.

"Uhh…what's that?" Damon asked unsure.

"Sort of sandals" Elena answered briefly as she followed Hayley.

Jackson grinned at him as Damon handed over his credit card.

He heard Elena squeak. "They are so pretty …I got to buy them…They are just so pretty" she said .

"And its just $300 for you" Hayley.

"What? $300 for these" Damon eyes widened.

"Yes…only" Hayley said.

"Also …As an early present of course" Jackson said.

He bit his lip as he saw her eye other wedges.

"And these one too…I can afford them…" Elena said as she pointed at some ridiculously high heels.

"ah.. White Shimmer Leather Sandals with Crystal Detailed Heel…such a fine taste" Jackson complemented.

"and expensive too Elena…five hundred bucks…" Damon said nervously and disgust. He hated glitter.

"I can buy them for myself" Elena said.

He felt guilty. He couldn't let her pay.

"no…see..umm..I will buy these too…"

"oh no…you already bought my dress and my red wedges…" she said.

"We are friends…this is just a gift from my side"

"it's too expensive"

"yeah …that's ok" he said.

She started laughing.

"What?"

"They are so ugly…even Care won't buy them…" Elena said in a low tone between her giggles.

He smiled back.

"Yeah…for a second there I thought you actually like those glittering things…yuck" Damon said with a chuckle.

"So…are we buying these too?" Hayley asked from behind.

"Oh no…we are done here"

"How is this ?" Elena said as she showed him a bracelet.

"good" he said, far from a cheerful person now.

"How about this one?"

"pretty" he replied barely looking.

"How about this one?" she said as she wore another one.

"Just pick one" he almost shouted.

"you insisted on coming…I didn't ask you to come…" she growled.

"Ok...Calm down…You love her…remember…she is Elena" Damon thought.

"I am sorry…uhh…they all look the same to me" I said.

Elena looked at him. He controlled his nostrils from flaring.

"but which one?"

"umm…the second one" Damon suggested as plastered a fake smile.

"but I like the third one" she said.

He wanted to cry. He wanted to pull out his hair and cry. But he managed to remain calm, God knows how and said " yes…the third one is so much more pretty"

"umm… I don't know …let's check out some other stores" she said as she marched out.

The old him would have bought a base ball bat and destroyed this mall but the new him was desperately in love and trying to win his girlfriend back. So, he just sighed and made mental note to bang his head with a wall later.

After going through Macy's twice. Buying all the crap that he knew she would never use. They were finally leaving. If he wasn't holding almost twenty bags he would have danced his way out.

Damon carefully placed all her bags in the backseat and trunk. He stretched with relief. Finally the dreaded deed was over. He turned around and found Elena talking to a guy.

He bit his lip as anger took over him. He was beyond annoyed. The feel of possessiveness overpowering his sanity. Jealousy and insecurity growing into him.

"I just saw you in there and I was like …man she is beautiful" the man complemented Elena.

Normally, if he was still Elena's boyfriend the guy wouldn't even come near her, Damon would have made sure of that.

"Thank you…" she replied kindly.

"So…I was thinking if I could call you sometime" the guy said with a smile.

"Actually..I have a boyfriend…we are in rough patch but we are working things out" Damon heard her.

"Oh…Hope everything works out…he will be an idiot to let such a beautiful girl like you go" the guy said.

"Thank you ...Mitch" she said with a smile as she slowly walked away from him to where their car was parking.

She saw him shocked and then smile … a real genuine smile.

"So?" he asked.

"What?" she said as she went through her phone.

"Where are we now?" he said as he took a turn.

"I don't know…check GPS" Elena said as she started texting Bonnie.

"I mean..Us…Elena…"

"I thought you said today was just a friend thing…"

"Yes…I did say that…" he said pressing his lips together hard. He shouldn't have gotten his hopes up so fast.

"Why do you look so disappointed? I thought you didn't expect anything" she said.

"Because this constant anxiety is killing me"

"I didn't promise you anything" she replied coldly.

He halted his car again.

"What the hell?" she nearly shouted.

"I want you to give me these last three weeks…let me show you that I am worth being a part of your future" he said looking directly in her eyes.

"It's not that easy"

"Just this one last chance…at the end of the month…if you want to leave…I will let you go…just this one last chance" he pleaded.

She sighed. It wasn't as if she didn't want this. She wanted him as bad as he wanted her.

"Today is 14 …we have exactly 15 days before my dad comes and I have to leave…forever…what if in the end of the month I still want to leave?" she asked.

"then I will let you go…and I will wait…until you come back to me…and I know you will because this kind of love never dies" he said as he closed the distance between them.

Elena cupped his face. He was looking intently in her eyes .Their noses touching. She crossed the distance and brushed her lips against his. He held her closer to him, his hand tangled in her hair. Her hands were still cupping his face as she deepened the kiss. He hungrily covered her mouth. Until finally they parted due to lack of oxygen.

"Wow…" he said as he tried to recover.

"Let's do that again" he said as he drew closer again.

"Nope"

"What? Are you backing out again…" he said with a frown.

"If you haven't noticed…we are in the middle of road…we will continue this make out session later"

She said with a smirk.

"What's the difference? There is no one here "he said as helped her wear her seat belt planting a kiss again on her lips.

He turned the key to start ignition.*Nothing*.He did it again.*Nothing* "Ah…Elena…I think we are out of gas"

So progress…but that's it for today…

The Jealous Ex Boyfriend

Chapter 12

This chapter is dedicated the beautiful Sunshine AlexLeo

"What do you mean we ran out of gas?" Elena shouted. "Oh no.." she continued.

"I don't get it…I got a refill just yesterday for this shopping trip of yours" he said more talking to himself then her.

"Stefan had a date yesterday …maybe he took your car" Elena said.

"Darn it…that fuckhead" he said.

"Chill ok…I will get help" Elena said.

"Ohh no…I am not getting any reception" she said.

"Me neither" he said as he checked his phone.

"Yes...perfect…Could this situation get any worse?" Damon shouted in utter frustration.

There was an explosion like a sonic boom. Elena jumped in fear. The dark clouds spat out their beads of water and within seconds the rainfall became more intense.

"Chill …Mother Nature…I wasn't challenging you when I said that" Damon said lightly.

A jagged bolt of lightning ripped the sky in half. She wrapped her hands around her body . Another heart wrenching thunder rolled across the sky. She jumped again shutting her eyes tightly.

"You are still scared of thunderstorms" he said, looking at her.

She didn't reply.

"Hey…Hey...I am right here ok…I won't let anything hurt you" he said as got closer to her.

"Let's get in the backseat" he said.

"Really…Damon…it's not a good time for quickie not to mention I just said I will consider giving us a shot doesn't mean we are back together or exclusive in anyway..." she said through her teeth , eyes still shut. Good, because had she seen how hurt he got by her words she would have regretted it immensely. Her words pierced through his heart. But he recomposed himself.

"Get your mind out of gutter Gilbert…I was just offering cuddling" he said.

"I will pass" she said as she hid her face in her hands. Yeah, He finally remembered how much she hated thunderstorms. She wouldn't even come out of her room when storm hit.

He slowly removed her hands from her face. She winced. " I am right here …don't be afraid.." he said in almost a whisper.

"Ok…get here" he said as he managed to get her sit on his lap. He nuzzled her neck, stoking the fire in her core. When he raised his head to reclaim her lips, she glimpsed a greedy longing in his eyes.

She let him peck her lips but moved her face away from him as she didn't want another make out session.

Hurt by rejection but it was far better than the torture he went through last two months. He never realized how much he missed her till they were this close. He missed her scent, her sighs and her moans when he brought her pleasure. He went back to nuzzling and nibbling her neck, her hair covering his face. For a second he thought of all their intimate moments.

He smiled when she sighed.

He loved the fragrance of her hair. Suddenly the thought of her leaving Mystic Falls forever brought shivers down his spine. Instinctively, he wrapped his hands around her body. He nibbled her neck.

"Don't do that.." she said as she tried to push him away from her.

"No…" he said as started kissing her neck.

She loved this sensation. She bit her lip to hold back her moan. She had to stop this before she loses her control. Damn him…he just knew how to push her buttons.

"No...We can't do this..Not now…" she said as she pushed him away and tried to get out of his arms.

"Ok...Ok...I won't…just stay" he said.

She sighed still sitting on his lap.

"You know shopping with you ...However frustrating it maybe …wasn't half bad with you by my side" he said.

"You hate shopping…" she said looking at him directly in his eyes.

It was like the world stopped as she looked at him with a slight frown. He forgot to blink. God was he so blind these three year. He should have treated her like a Goddess. She was so perfect

"Yes...I still do…as I said It's not that bad with you…in fact we should do this again…" he said as held her hand lacing his fingers through hers.

"Maybe" she said looking away.

"Why did you buy that red dress though...Something special coming up?" he asked.

"Yeah…Founder's party" she said .

"Aha…who is your partner?" he asked one eyebrow rose. The last thing he needed was another competition.

"Stefan obviously "she said.

"Yeah…well…I will take you to that party" he said .

"You don't need to do that…I know how much you hate those kinds of parties" she said looking at him.

He got closer to her again slowly, making sure she didn't notice as he reclaimed his position in the crook of her neck.

"I don't hate those parties…I just hate all those people ..." he said with a slight chuckle.

"I thought you didn't go because you were embarrassed to go with me" Elena said .

"What? Excuse me…embarrassed by you…? I need to know how the hell you came up with that" Damon asked, surprised.

"Your senior prom…you took Lexi...but you didn't ask me once … about seven months ago you took Rose to Summer farewell dance that Ric made you go with him …I am not saying that I suspect anything …I am not saying that you cheated or anything cuz I know they are just your friends..And you always told me before hand…but why wouldn't you just take me with you?" she asked looking at him making his heart skip a beat or two.

He always loved her desperation .No one had ever loved him like she did. She looked puzzled by his dazed look.

"Yeah…I did that…remember in the first two years of our relationship when I use to take you to all the dances and all the parties…you fit so well with them but I didn't ...You never noticed how people treated me there did you…"

"What are you talking about?" she asked.

"I specifically remember your close family friend Mrs. Lockwood talk about me right in front me telling some other old hag how I was useless in comparison to my goody two shoes brother and

how a perfect girl like Elena deserved so much better ….Your aunt Jenna use to call me a girl's

bad phase..."

He paused for a minute pressing his lips debating whether he should or not tell her all this. She needed to know. He was this close to losing her. He almost shuddered.

"Hell…even my own father told you I was the worst thing that could happen to you…Remember when you took me as your date to a family wedding of yours..Guess what your uncle John said …that I shouldn't feel all family because Elena will sooner or later dump my ass since I am just a part of her rebel phase" he continued not looking at her now.

"I don't get it…" she said. "I never saw people doing that to you in front of me"

"People treated me rubbish Elena…but you were too lost in your own world to notice…you were star student…you were role model…people wanted their daughters to be like you…I on the other hand was the guy struggling to barely pass his classes…my girlfriend wins the math tournament…I fail math …my girlfriend is star student..I barely pass…My girlfriend wins freaking Miss Mystic Falls pageant…I mess up her dance in the after party by turning up stoned to her party. I was the one embarrassing you …so I made Stef go to public events with you .I didn't want to embarrass you…" he finished now looking at her.

"I…you never embarrassed me "she said she cupped his face again, a guilt look on her face.

"Not to mention that people around us made it worst…Elena ...they would talk about us fully aware that I was listening , they use to talk about how I was not even close to what you were…they use to compare us. How you were so successful and how I was a waste of space whose own mother dumped him on his father's doorstep…" he said while absentmindedly playing with her hand.

"I am sorry that you had to feel all that..." she said looking at him biting her lip. And here she was always fighting with him to go with her to all those events where he was treated in such a way by people. He was just misunderstood. He wasn't a bad person.

"It's ok" he said smiling at her looking now.

They were too close.

He tried to close the gap between them with every intention of claiming her trembling lips. He smirked at thought that he still had the effect on her. He could feel her heartbeat racing. His hand slid through her shirt making her eyes widen. She turned her face just in time before he could kiss her. She pushed his hands away glaring at him. Giving him a perfect opportunity. With a fierce hold, he cupped the back of her neck and kissed her gently and possessive in his touch. His fingers twined in her hair, desperate to explore.

She fought him, she tried to push him away but he was stronger than her. He pushed his tongue against the inside of her mouth loving the way her body tensed as the pressure increased. A faint moan escaped her lips and all resistance fled, burned away by the heat of his touch, leaving her weak and wanting. Her hands now around his neck. His hands came around her back as he tried to get all of her pressing against him. He pulled away giving them time to breath.

"That's it.." she said in between taking deep breath and moving out of his lap back to her seat.

"ok…ok…I am sorry" he said as he tried to get her back to sit on his lap.

"No..no more kissing …we need to find a gas station soon… It's getting dark" she said pushing his desperate arms away.

"Fine" he said with a grumpy look.

"I think there is one in about 5 miles" Damon said.

"You can't walk five miles.." Elena said with a worried look.

"Actually honey…we have to walk 5 miles…I am not leaving you alone here" he said as he opened his door.

"This is just cruel" she said as she also came out.

The fierce rainstorm had now calmed down. It was more of drizzling now which wasn't unpleasant at all.

He locked his car and started walking along with the girl.

"I hate walks" he said in an annoyed tone.

She smiled as she held his arm getting closer to him.

"Giving mixed signals …classic Elena Gilbert way" he said.

She playfully punched his arm.

"ugh..I just remembered that I forgot to buy something for Jenna's birthday next week…oh God…" Elena said.

"Don't tell me we have to go to that dreaded place again to buy a gift…Please…" Damon said as his eyes widened.

"No…actually I was thinking to gift her puppy …she always wanted a pet" Elena said.

"Puppy…mm…Mystic falls have a pet shop" Damon said.

"It's not a pet shop…it's a shelter" she said .

"What's the difference?" Damon said with a shrug.

"Huge difference…you know that I am an animal activist, right! see…when you a buy a puppy from a pet store. Unknowingly you are supporting Puppy Mills"

"Puppy mills?" Damon said with an eyebrow raised.

"Large scale breeding operations that put profit ahead of animal welfare. Female dogs are forced to produce litter after litter until they can no longer breed at which point they risk destruction. Many puppy mills dogs have never been out of their cages, have never felt grass under their feet never been hugged in a way that makes them know that they're cared for." She said in very sad tone.

This was one of the reasons he loved her so much. She was one of the kindest person he knew .She would start crying after watching a save a child Ad. She continued talking about this for the next 30 minutes. Eventually this meaningful topic turned to yapping about two different shades of purple nail polish she was going to buy. He wasn't complaining .He loved every moment of her yapping.

"I can't walk anymore…" she said as she stopped.

"It's just been 45 minutes…" Damon said dragging her, holding her hand.

"I can't walk…my feet hurt" she said pulling her hand away.

He looked at her for a second and then rolled his eyes. "Fine"

"Get on my back…I will give you a piggyback ride" he said.

"Are you sure?" she said.

"Hurry up before I change my mind" he said .

He bent down slightly on his knees as she jumped on his back, wrapping her arms around his shoulders while he bent a little more pulling his arms underneath her legs, interlocking his fingers as he rose up straight.

"Oh fuck …you're heavy..." he said with a sigh as he started walking.

"What?" Elena almost growled.

"Light as feather baby…" he corrected himself.

"I thought so…" she said with a smirk.

"Bad boy my foot….I am totally whipped" he said as he walked a little faster. Elena smiled. She hid

her face in the crook of his neck. He nearly dropped her out of excitement. Her lips touching the back of his neck.

"Don't get any ideas" she whispered in his ear.

"Then don't give me any ideas" he said, annoyed.

He instantly regretted as she moved her face away. He felt miserable because he missed the contact of her lips with his skin, that too willingly. Maybe she was finally warming up.

"What are you thinking?" she said .

"About how whipped I am…" he said.

"Hey…I see a sign…I think we are almost there" she said as she pointed.

"Oh…good …" he said as he walked faster.

"I can walk now…" she said as she unhooked her arms.

She instantly missed touching him, wrapping him in her arms.

He didn't say anything instead he carefully bent down. She jumped off him.

"Thank you" she said with a bright smile.

"My back … it hurts..." he said he stretched.

"Are you indicating that I am fat?" Elena said with a frown.

"Woman…I just carried you for twenty minutes …and your aching to fight?" he said with scowl as he walked passed her, a hand still on his back.

"Ok…I am sorry" she said earnestly touching his arm again giving him tingling sensations. A weird

kind of laugh escaped his lips. "I am ok…" he said as he recomposed himself. "What is the matter with me?" he growled to himself.

Elena eyes narrowed. "Are you ok?"

"Yeah…I don't know…let's just go …" he said as walked passed her.

He spotted a gas station across the busy traffic road. He crossed the road fast without looking back, mentally lecturing himself not to behave like little girl in front of her crush.

He looked back and saw Elena at the opposite side of the road. She was looking from left to right.

He face palmed remembering how she still found it difficult to cross a road.

He sighed before he walked back to her carefully.

"Seriously...Lena…you are 19 and you still can't cross a road…" he said as he held her hand lacing his fingers through her.

Moment like these when he loved her more and got annoyed by her at the same time. He pressed his lips to refrain himself from smiling. He secretly found it adorable. "Star student and all, still can't cross a road" he mocked as he dragged her to the other side of the road.

"Hey...Lena?"

"What?"

"Why did the chicken cross the road…oh wait she couldn't because she is chicken…" he ended with a snort.

"Not funny…" she said with a scowl.

"I have another why did the chicken cross the road joke…wanna hear that?" he said with a smirk.

"cut it out…don't start this again …the last thing I need is Stefan to hear this and then we will be back to Damon and Stefan's jokes about how Elena can't cross a road. Again." she said, clearly annoyed.

He smirked as he slowly let go of her hand."Wait here" he said as he went to talk to a worker of gas station.

It took about 30 minutes before they were back on the road. He yawned as he drove faster. Elena looked at him.

"You look tired. Maybe, I should drive.." she offered kindly.

He smirked. "Me. Let you drive…Over my dead body, Gilbert" he said.

"And you will never get to drive my baby in this life time even after you get a license" he added.

Elena rolled her eyes.

"I could have got a driver license if you didn't interfere" she hissed.

"Yes…begging Stefan to bribe the guy who was taking your driving test…yes that's not so Elena Gilbert of you by the way" he said with a smirk.

"You choose to follow the rules now…" she said.

"It's for your own good, babydoll" he said.

"Jerk" she said.

"It's not my fault that you suck at driving…" he said .

She didn't reply and started looking out of the window.

"Ok…I am sorry" he said as he looked at her.

"Eyes on the road" she nearly shrieked.

He laughed at her reaction. She smiled. She loved to hear him laugh. The rest of the ride went like that. Talking, teasing and a little bit of fighting.

He stopped in front of her house, parking his car.

"Let me help you with the bags" he said as he got out, opening trunk.

"You don't need to…"

"No…really…" he said as he grabbed a bunch of bags. He would never admit but he didn't want his time with her to end. This was merely an excuse to spend more time with her.

She unlocked the door.

"No one is home?" Damon asked.

"Yeah…Jenna is out of town with Ric and Jer is with his friends at the lake house" she said as she dropped her bags on couch.

Normally, whenever she was alone in her house, she would invite him for a "Sleep over" or in other words hot crazy sex. But things were different this time.

"So…I will call you…we will meet up again…right?" he said.

"Sure…" she replied.

"Goodnight" he said.

She looked at him. She could see the desperate longing in his eyes. She wanted him as much as he wanted her. But, things were different. She needed to take it slow.

"Goodnight" she said with a smile.

He slowly started to walk out.

"I will see you tomorrow" he said as he turned back one more time finding her following him.

"Sure..." she said .

He was on doorway now.

"So..Goodnight..." he said.

"Goodnight" she said with a chuckle.

"Can I get one kiss?" he finally asked.

She chuckled.

"You need to go.." she said.

"Why do you want me to go?" he said playfully,

"Are u afraid that you will lose control?" he added.

Her phone buzzed. She picked up immediately. He bit his lip. He was about to leave when…

"I am ok …Elijah…yes, Care ditched me …I didn't reply to any of your texts because I wasn't getting any reception…yes, I am home now…" she said with a smile as she turned around to close the door.

Someone blocked her. She looked up. Damon was staring at her, eyes narrowed. She could see the flames in his eyes.

"Umm…" she stopped talking immediately as she noticed his clenched fists.

He drew forward, she stepped back. He took her phone from her hand and turned it off, slamming it on the floor. She nearly shrieked. He got closer to her, eyes still focusing on her eyes. She took a step back.

"I don't like it when he talks to you…I want you to stop being so friendly to him…" he said darkly.

"That's none of your business" she said.

"Oh …it is my business, Lena…see one you belong to me ..." A dangerous smile surfaced on his face as he gazed her lips longingly "and two, what I just said"

She stepped back one more time but she found herself trapped between him and the wall. "Oh great…not again" she thought.

His mouth hovered just above hers. At that moment, she didn't care. She wanted to kiss him too.

In a second, he took her mouth by force; a weak gasp escaped her lips. He held her hands on top of her head lacing his fingers through her. He loved the taste of her lips. His mouth roamed, not so gentle as he devoured her against the smooth curve of her throat and her cheekbones and with a groan, he yanked her close with powerful arms, consuming her mouth with a kiss. She kissed him back eagerly desperate to explore. Before they knew it they were both out of breath again.

"Now...Was that so hard?" he said as he took a look at her swollen lips.

"Goodnight Elena…" he said as he kissed her forehead this time.

She didn't say anything. She was nearly trembling. It had always been like this between them.

She heard him close the door. She sighed.

It was nearly twelve when she heard noise coming from downstairs .She rose up, wearing a robe.

She slowly unlocked her door.

She bent from the reeling of stairs. She nearly yelped as she saw a masked figure roam inside her house.

She ran back to her room locking her door. She searched for her phone to call for help. She found her phone on top of shelf. It's screen was broken. The touch pad wasn't working properly. "Damn it" she nearly shouted.

"Oh God…" she gasped. She tried to call police for help but the keypad wasn't working properly.

She sighed in relief when only one key worked .And it was enough because she had Stefan saved on speed dial by this key.

"FuckFace!… Yo ! FuckFace…your fucking phone is ringing..." Damon shouted.

"Can you please pick it up? …I am taking a shower…" Stefan shouted back.

"Sure honey …do you also want me to come in there and scrub your back too?.." Damon shouted in a female tone.

"Dick"

He picked up Stefan's phone. The screen glowed showing Elena's smiling picture.

He answered.

"Hello…babydoll" he said in mock tone.

"Stefan…Stef…someone broke into my house..." her crying voice answered.

He stiffened.

"Elena…baby. Honey! What are you saying?" He said in an extremely worried tone.

"Damon..Damon…I saw a someone in mask downstairs in my living room" she said as she cried.

"Where? Where are you ? Now.." he said.

"I am in my room but I am very scared …please…Get help. I can't call the police because you squashed my phone…touch pad won't work…" she said in a low whisper.

"Baby! I am on my way…" he said. "Stay with me …don't drop the call" he added. He rushed to his father's room and took out a gun from his father's closet.

"Damon…I am scared"

"I am on my way honey" he added.

"Stefan…Bitch...I am going over to Elena's place …someone broke into her house..Call the police" he shouted before he ran out of his house.

"Lena…honey ...Calm down…" he said as he heard her cry.

"Don't make any kind of noise...Shush…open your window…I will climb up the pipe" he said as hit the accelerator pedal.

He heard her open the lock of her windows. He stopped his car far from the house as he didn't want the intruder to know he was outside.

Damon ran toward the west side of her house. Putting the pistol in his back pocket of his jeans he rubbed his hands and started climbing up her pipe. It wasn't a new thing for him. He had done this

countless time before.

As he reached the top, Elena helped him pull in.

"What are you doing here…I told you to get help" she said in a whisper.

"You wanted help…here I am" he said with a smirk.

"I meant..Police" she hissed.

"Oh…I told Stef to do that…I just had to come…I couldn't bear the thought of you in danger" he said as he wrapped his arms around her protectively.

"I am ok" she said as she snuggled into his chest, a smile hidden from his vision as she buried her face into his warm jumper placing feathery light kiss.

"I am here now … don't worry" he said as he kissed the top of her head.

She pulled away after a minute.

"Let's check our guest" he said as he went forward to unlock the door.

"No…" Elena hissed.

"Don't worry I can handle myself" he said with a smirk.

"I am coming with you "she said.

"No way …this guy could be armed" Damon hissed.

"Oh…yeah...so are we" she said as she pulled out her pepper spray.

"Nice(smirk)…do we have a baseball bat here? "he asked. Clearly, impressed by her courage so far.

"Yes…under my bed" she said.

"Oh great…"he said as he pulled out the bat.

"Hold this too" he said.

"Ready" he continued.

"ok"

He unlocked the door and slowly moved out hiding Elena behind him. "Stay here" he ordered. As he pulled out his pistol, he saw Elena eyes widen. He put his hand on her mouth to stop her from shouting.

"Hush"

"Trust me" he added.

Elena nodded in agreement.

He removed his hand from her face. He turned around pushing her to his back .As he slowly moved toward living room. He spotted the masked figure going towards Jenna's room.

He pounced on the man from behind. The masked man shrieked. Elena hurriedly sprayed on his eyes. The masked man shouted in agony. Damon took this opportunity and struck the man repeatedly with the baseball bat on his legs.

"I will skin you alive you , asshole" he said as he struck him again.

"You will kill him" Elena said as she pushed him away.

"Really…Lena…sympathy for an intruder…who might be here to kill you." he said as he glared at

her. "Get away from him" he said as he shoved her to his back protectively. Elena was after all his weakness.

He pulled out his gun and aimed at the man.

"Remove your mask now" Damon growled.

"Damon!" the guy shrieked as he dragged himself away without getting up.

Elena eyes widened.

"I have heard that voice before…" Damon said looking at Elena still aiming at the man.

"Ric" Jenna shouted coming out of her room in a night gown.

"Shit" Damon said.

So progress…but all is not well still.

There will be hell a lot of teasing from Elena's side.

Anyway, Thank you so much for reading , reviewing , favourting and following.

Please...Please...Please Review…

And no flames, please…

So Thank You again!

The Jealous Ex Boyfriend

Chapter 13

"He's got gun..He has a gun. Son of a bitch has got a gun" Ric shrieked .

"Get away from him" Jenna said as she rushed to the fallen man.

"Why do you have a gun?" Jenna said as she looked back to the shocked black haired man.

"What is happening over here?" Elena said.

"Damon…why do you have a gun? Screw that…What the fuck are you doing in my house at this time of the night?" Jenna asked.

"He has a gun. He has lost it. I told you he was crazy" Ric continued in feminine shriek.

"Damon…put the gun down" Elena said.

"I told you, Jenna…This guy has lost it. He attacked me for no reason. I told you to get a restraining order on him..Didn't I? For goodness sake he has a gun" Ric continued.

"Damon , put the gun down…" Elena said.

"SHUT UP…SHUT UP…ALL OF YOU" Damon shouted.

"WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE?" Damon said in annoyed tone.

"Don't you shout at my boyfriend in my house" Jenna said.

"Quite, Woman" Damon said as he aimed the gun at both Ric and Jenna.

"Elena!"Jenna shouted.

"Damon…put the damn gun away" Elena said with a glare.

"You don't have to worry, the safety is ..*clicks a button* on.." he said .

"Put it away" Elena said.

"OK…" he admitted defeat and stuffed the pistol back in his pocket.

"Now…Care to explain why the hell did you beat my boyfriend to pulp?" Jenna said as she supported Ric to rise up.

"Why was he wearing a mask…we thought he was burglar…I saw him in the kitchen in the mask and I got scared. I was going to call the police but my touchpad wasn't working cuz anyway…Stef was on my speed dial..So I called him. That's why Damon is here .But again why is he wearing a mask?" Elena asked as she rushed to Alaric and examined him.

"Well… he was.." Jenna trailed off.

"Oh…classic burglar-victim sex …uhh nice" Damon said with a smirk.

Elena's eyes widened.

"I was hungry … I went outside to make sandwiches…should have removed the damn mask" Alaric said as Jenna and Elena helped him lay down on couch.

Damon was about to say something and was interrupted by Police Sirens. Men in police uniform bursted through front door.

"Freeze" one of the cop shouted.

Liz Forbes followed them , her gun ready.

"Elena…" She heard Stefan's voice.

In a millisecond, Elena found herself in a bear hug.

"Oh My God…Thank God. You're Ok.." Stefan said as he sighed in relief ,pressing the brunette more.

"Can't. Breath" Elena said.

"Dick…Let her go" Damon said with an annoyed expression.

He let go of her but planted small kisses on numerous parts on her face.

"Stef*giggle* I am ok…Boy…I never knew you love me this much" she said.

"What the hell man?" Stefan heard his annoyed brother who certainly wasn't appreciating this level of love.

"You..fucking bitch you scared the living hell out of me.." Stefan said as he again hugged her.

"I am ok…" she said as she wrapped her arms around his waist.

"Yeah..Yeah..Everyone is fine again...enough...now get away" Damon said as he tried to distance them .

"What happened here..? Alaric…did the burglar did this to you…" Liz asked.

"Did he escape?" another officer asked.

"No...Damon did this…"Alaric said as he groaned with pain.

All guns pointed at Damon at once.

"That's enough…Damon!I am sick of you causing trouble; I will be arresting you for not only breaking in but also attacking Ric…" Liz said in a strict tone.

"No…" Elena said as she rushed in front of Damon protecting him from the Sherriff Liz deadly glare.

"It was all a misunderstanding" she added in a serious tone.

"Yes…Liz..It wasn't like that. See, whatever Damon did was self defense…he thought I was the one who broke in" Alaric said.

"Yeah! Damon told me to call you…" Stefan said .

Damon pressed his lips to refrain himself from smiling at the sight of the fragile girl standing in front of him in a protective stance.

"And Damon is here because I called him" Elena said.

"Liz , it was all a misunderstanding…see...Ric and I were suppose to stay at Ric's place but change of plans and we came here instead…so Ric and I were uhh…doing a thing *blush*…and for that thing he had to uh…wear this mask but then *churns teeth* he says he is hungry …anyway so he goes downstairs get us something to eat and then ten minutes later I find him on the floor with Damon on top of him beating the living hell out of him" Jenna explains uncomfortably

"Oh…role-play night?" one of the cop asks with a smirk.

"Yeah…" Alaric answered. Somewhat embarrassed.

Sherriff Liz clenched her fists. She was red faced.

"I am really terribly sorry…Liz. I was so scared; I didn't know what to do. I saw a man in mask

downstairs and I lost all my senses…I didn't knew Jenna was home…I thought I was all alone…I

am really sorry. I didn't mean to disturb you…I know that you have to go back to work in about five

hours" Elena said in her most apologetic tone.

She felt Damon's hand on her back, comforting her. Letting her know with his touch that she didn't need to be sorry, whatever she did was totally understandable.

"It's okay, Lena. I am just glad you are fine" Liz said with a small smile. " You don't need to feel guilty" she added.

"All clear, Boys" Liz said as she looked back to the armed men behind her. "False Alarm" she added as she left.

"Lena!" Elena saw her friend Caroline come in a rush. Elena again found herself in a bear hug.

"Oh ThankGod! ThankGod! You're okay…"Caroline said.

"I. Can't. Breathe" Elena replied as she struggled to push Caroline away.

"You bitch…you scared me …I am so happy that you're okay…" Caroline added .

"I am fine …Care…Relax" Elena replied with a giggle as she pulled away

A fairly grumpy and sleepy Klaus and a worried Elijah walked in to the living room.

"Hey Lena…! You're okay…" Klaus said still in a sleepy voice as he hugged her.

"Yes…I am okay" she replied as she hugged back but pulled away soon.

"Seriously…what's with you people and hugs?" Damon asked now irritated.

"Elena…" Elijah said as he wrapped his arms around the brunette and hugged her tightly.

"I was worried sick about you" he said with a concern filled voice that was enough for Damon to fly into rage.

Jenna's eyes widened. Alaric made a weird face.

"Red Damon Alert" Jenna whispered to Ric.

"I am fine …" Elena answered with a short embarrassed giggle as she hugged him back. Anyone in the room could see the imaginary steam coming out of Damon's ears.

"I am really really sorry to scare you all like that …" she said as she pulled away.

"I told her…you will be fine …but she cried her eyes out on the way" Klaus said looking at Caroline who sniffed at this point.

"aww…CareBear was worried about me…" Elena mocked Caroline.

"yes…dragged me too with her" Klaus said as he yawned.

"Thank you so much for coming.." Elena said with a smile.

"What happened though?" Elijah asked, wanting Elena's attention back to him.

" I am not telling the story again" Jenna said.

"Yeah…I will tell you later" Stefan said awkwardly as he stepped closer and stood between Elijah and Elena.

Damon mentally highfived Stefan.

"I am really really sorry Ric" Elena apologized again.

"It's okay honey" Ric said as he got up with the help of Jenna.

"All the Boys..out of my house before I get back…Stefan you can stay and Care you are staying … Liz will kill me if she finds out I let you go home with the crazy Michelson over there" Jenna said as she helped Ric walk to her room.

"I will go change" Stefan said as he went upstairs followed by Caroline with a groan.

"Lucky him" Klaus said looking at Stefan.

"Tell me about it" Damon replied in a low tone.

"I am glad that you're okay" Elijah said as he looked lovingly at Elena.

"Of course…she was going to be okay…I was with her all the time" Damon replied sharply as he wrapped his arms around Elena's waist.

"Oh…" Elijah replied with a smile. Fake smile.

She squirm out of his arms and looks at him for a second warning him with her eyes. He smirks at her.

"Yeah…" she says with a smile.

"We should probably go home now before I pass out" Klaus said again with yawn.

"Yes…" Elijah replied.

"I just wanted to see you…to make sure that you're okay" Elijah added.

"That's very sweet of you…Thank you for your concern" she said in a sweet tone placing her one palm on his cheek for a brief moment ignoring her now ex boyfriend whose knuckles tightened at this display of affection.

"Goodnight ,Lena" Elijah said with a smile as he left.

"Goodnight" she replied as she closed the door behind him . She turned around facing her angry as hell ex boyfriend.

"I thought they will never leave" she said nervously.

"You didn't look like you weren't enjoying his company" Damon snapped.

"Thank you so much for your concern…Thank you for coming here…" she said with the same smile she offered Elijah seconds ago.

"That's it?" he asked.

"Yup" she said.

"I was expecting more than that…after I watched you shamelessly flirt with some other guy right in front of me…" he said with a growl.

"Flirt? When the hell did I flirt with him? He was hardly here ten minutes…" she said, surprised. He just hissed as he turned away to leave.

"Damon…"

He stopped.

She walked over to him. She touched his arm from behind spinning him around to look at her.

Her eyes filled as she saw the slash of pain on his face. He was never the one who shared. She needed to make up . She needed to show him he was far more important and special then anyone.

Her hand move to cup his cheek. "I was really really scared and when I heard your voice I knew I would be fine because I have you on my side now…All the terrible, heart wrenching scary feelings went away as soon as I saw you…Thank you so much for coming here and protecting me…"Her voice cracked and Damon's hand came up instinctively to press her hand against his cheek even as he dipped his head to let his lips brush her palm. Her soft palm on his cheek, laid his demons to rest.

"This feeling of security …this concern..Thank you for everything." She said as she moved closer to him. She kissed him lightly on his cheek .His eyes closed in grateful reprieve. Her hand slowly slid down to his chest resting on his incredibly fast drumming heart. His hand came up to cover hers. His thumb rubbed slow circles on her hand, dialing up her fervor. He wanted her to hear and touch what his whole being was shouting to the universe.

"so That's it…" Elena whispered.

He didn't reply at all he was looking at her intently breaking her resolve.

"Elena…stop .You cannot lean in. You need to look away. But he looks so cute. Look at his puppy dog eyes and those lips. Just kiss me please." Elena thought.

"Just let me kiss you one last time. Let's cut the chase. Let's just get back together. Ask me to stay " he thought.

Caroline's shriek snapped them out of their moment. Elena looked up and groaned.

"That's my toothbrush" Elena could hear her best friend shouting.

"The blue was mine" She heard Stefan answer.

She looked back at the blue eyed man still looking at her.

"Want me to deal with them?" he said with a smirk.

"No…I can handle them" she said.

"Goodnight Damon" she said in a final tone crushing all his hopes of her asking him to stay over at

night.

"Sure..Night" he said as he turned around to leave.

He checked his phone again.

No calls. No texts. Nothing.

He groaned as he ran his fingers through his hair trying to concentrate. He absolutely hated creative writing. He had to take this credit course to improve his GPA. It was either sketching or creative writing and he rather die of STD then sketch.

"In the end I need about 500 words review or an essay or whatever you call it, on any movie you watch … I just want to check your writing skills" Professor Feller said.

"What the fuck? 500 words …how the fuck will I write a 500 words essay…I can barely write 50" he thought.

"To be submitted in the next class" Professor Feller added.

"Next class" he shouted.

"Yes…Mr. Salvatore…any problem?" he asked coolly.

"That's like in one day" Damon replied .

"Yes…and this better be good…better then the last time when I told you to write a fiction and you handed me over a Ninja turtle fan-fiction" Professor retorted with a hiss.

"It's five percent of your grade so I expect good amount of hard work from all of you" He added.

"On that note. Class Dismissed"

Damon's phone buzzed continuously waking him up from his nap that he clearly needed after last night.

"Let it be Elena …Let it be Elena" he said in his sleep as he picked up his phone and checked his screen.

"FuckFace Jeremy calling" his screen beamed.

"Wrong Gilbert" he said as he answered.

"There better be a good reason for waking me up" he said with a growl.

"Well Good Evening to you too" Jeremy replied.

"What? FuckFace" he asked with a groan.

"I need a favor" he heard Jeremy.

"hmm…"

"I need your car" Jeremy asked in a low tone.

"Go fuck yourself" he replied. He was about to hang up.

"Damon…Please..I am taking Anna on a big date…this is special and she loves your car…Can't I just borrow it for one day…Please to make our day extra special" Jeremy pleaded.

"You can kiss my ass" he replied in an annoyed tone.

"Oh come on…help a brother out here…one day Damon…I will tell my children how their uncle Damon helped their dad get laid multiple times…we are future relatives for goodness sake… what's yours is mine as well…I am going to be your brother in law someday…you should help me out…" Jeremy ended with an emotional sigh.

"Don't bring Elena in to this. You jerk"

"I shouldn't request…I know …I should demand. I demand you give me your car on the grounds of the fact that we are family, Damon. We as in you and me , we are brothers.*Damon chuckles* .I will have a legal document to prove it in about 6-7 years. I will be your best man. I will be on your side when you're getting a lap dance from a stripper on your Bachelor's party. I will be covering up for you whenever you screw up . Because Damon we are family...we are"

"Shut the fuck up...emotional blackmailer …Fine…I will come over in about an hour to your place. But remember one scratch on my car and I swear I will beat the living fuck out of you"

"I will die before I let anything happen to your car…I swear and you don't need to come over to my place…I will come over to your place…" Jeremy said .

"Jer…I WILL COME OVER TO YOUR PLACE" Damon said .

"ohh…yeah…right.I get it…see you.." Jeremy said with a chuckle.

"Later. FuckFace"

Jeremy opened the door as soon as he heard knocking.

"You have a spare key ..right?" Jeremy asked .

"No…Broody took it from me after…you know" he said entering.

"Here…" he said he threw keys toward Jeremy which he caught.

"Rule number 1. No sex in my car.

Rule number 2 . No speeding.

Rule number kicking debris off shoes

Rule number 4. No leaving garbage in door handles.

Rule number 5. No touching windows with fingers

Rule number 6. No smoking inside car

Violation of any of those rules will result in me pulling your heart out and shoving it down your throat." Damon ended with a deadly glare.

"What's going on here?" Elena asked.

He turned around. She was wearing dark emerald green strapless cocktail dress paired up high heels. Her long wavy hair hairs with rotating curls flowed down to her back. She had even done

makeup. Smokey eye makeup that emphasized her chocolate brown eyes and little blush on and pink lip gloss. She looked sexy as hell . His pants tightened. Disturbing sexual thoughts about the lady in front of him whirled in his mind. All he wanted to do was sex her up over and over again.

"Wow…" he couldn't refrain himself from complementing. He was still astounded by the fact that she made him speechless even after all these years.

She smiled nervously.

"You look….(say something) gorgeous…" he said .

"Thank you…" she replied still nervously.

"Not bad" Jeremy also complemented.

"I know" she said with shrug as she turns around to leave.

"Girls night out?" Jeremy asked.

"uh…yeah…Just going out with a friend" she said in a low tone as she tried to escape. Her brother and her ex boyfriend's eyes widened .

"Going out with a FRIEND?" Damon questioned as he followed her.

"I should totally leave" Jeremy said as he left hurriedly.

"Yes…just a casual hang out" she said as she went to the kitchen.

"Dressed like that?" he asked as his eyes narrowed.

"Yeah…" she said as she pushed past him back to living room clearly avoiding him.

He held her arm and spinning her around yanking her closer to him as he looked directly in her eyes.

"Going out on DATE?" he asked.

"Yes..." she answered. She couldn't find the ability to lie to his face. His eyes always had that effect on her.

"Oh…right." He hissed. Jealousy swirled like a red tide within him, growing into his skin , filling his blood and driving him insane. Numerous times, he wouldn't even notice whenever she dressed up for him because two and half months ago it was normal. He would be lying if he didn't accept that it stung like a bitch that she dressed up for some other guy.

"and what about yesterday…when you told me that YOU will give me a CHANCE to FIX US…you can't just go on dates with other guys…" he said.

"Damon…you started dating again after a week of us breaking up...and we aren't exclusive or anything…I did made that clear yesterday didn't I?" she said as she pushed him away a little creating distance.

"Okay! Fine! I did go out with some girls but it sucked." He said

"Too bad" she said as she turned around to walk away.

"It took me about three dates to realize that Lena .It had been you all along. You are perfect for

me. Everything sucked without you" he said as he came in front of her blocking her way.

Wait. Shit . Red Elena again. He could see the half hurt ,half smug and half jealous look on her face.

"Whatever" she said as she rolled her eyes.

Their conversation was interrupted by the knocking on the door.

"Fine…Let me see who had the audacity to ask MY girlfriend out on a date" he said darkly as he moved toward the door.

"Damon…not this again. I am not YOUR girlfriend. We will try to work this out this rough patch but in the mean time you can't just interfere in my life…I didn't want to break up with you…you left me…and you tried to move on …which didn't work out for you which isn't my fault. This is MY life. I get to make decisions and I can go out with whoever I want and fall in love with whoever I want" she said harshly breaking his heart into million pieces in a second.

He didn't even bother to recompose himself.

"I am really sorry ..Elena…" he said in a whisper ,trying to tamp his self loathing. Pain evident on his face. All he wanted to do now was crush her to him and kiss her so hard to let her know how much he loved her.

"Fine…you want to go on a date…Go…I won't interfere in YOUR life…I will let you go because I

know you will come back to me and I am sure you won't fall in love with whoever you are going out with because you are in LOVE with ME…you're MINE " he said confidently .

"We will see about that" she said.

"You sure well" he said with a smirk. He knew she saw right through him. He knew that she knew this was killing him but he let it go because he deserved it.

"Elena…" he heard Elijah's voice.

He hissed.

"You're DATE is waiting for you" he said.

He could see she felt guilty. He brushes past her to exit the house through the kitchen door instead of main door.

"Have a nice time" he said before closing the door behind him.

"You look breathtakingly beautiful…" Elijah said with a smile.

She sipped from her glass. She smiled back at him.

Fancy restaurants were never her thing. She felt uncomfortable in such places. There was an awkward silence now.

"So…" she said initiating conversation.

"So…"

Conversation had never been a problem between her and Damon. They had million things to talk

about. Heck they could even talk about Stefan's hair gel for hours.

Doctor Gilbert called me yesterday…he was asking me to request you to come a little early" Elijah said.

"Oh.." her heart dropped. Thoughts of leaving Mystic Falls forever killed her.

"I promised Care that I will be here for at least two weeks more…" she replied with a smile.

"Elena…listen..I know that this must be difficult for you…but you need to move on" Elijah said as he placed his hand on top of hers. Elena slid her hand away with a smile.

"I know…"

"Damon had been interfering a lot lately…you two looked quite cozy yesterday…I half thought he might make you cancel our date" Elijah said deliberately baiting her to get a rise out of her against Damon.

"Damon is my friend…he was there to help me yesterday…" she defended her ex boyfriend.

"friend huh….progress" he said as he pressed his lips.

"Excuse me…"

"Last time …I remembered he almost threw you out of his house in his party that he didn't invited you after he broke up with you…"

He felt guilty as soon as her eyes glittered with tears.

"I am sorry…I shouldn't have said that" Elijah said.

"It's okay" she said as she wiped a tear.

"I really like you Elena…really really a lot…I am just looking out for you" he said with concerned filled voice.

"I know…Thankyou"

"We should change the topic" he said.

"Yes…"

"So…anything other than reading neurology books" he asked.

"well..umm…in what particular way" she asked with a smile.

"uh…what type of movies do you watch?"

"Chick flicks…horror…romantic comedies and sometimes soft porn…" she answered.

"Oh" Elijah actually blushed.

Elena laughed.

"Something I picked up..living with Stef and Damon all my life…I use to be so ashamed of this but Damon taught me to own up to whatever I am…" she said in between giggles not realizing she mentioned her ex again.

Elijah pressed his lips.

"Damon…Damon…Damon…I need to get this guy out of her mind…" he thought as he watched her going through menu.

"We should order Steaks…beef steaks are their specialty" he said.

" uh…I am …I don't eat beef…I don't actually eat meat of any kind" Elena said.

"You're a vegetarian?" Elijah asked.

"Born again vegan…I stopped eating meat about four years ago…" she said.

"Any particular reason?" he asked.

"It was kind of a New Year resolution…Stef and I …we are kind of animal activists." She said.

"Oh…funny…"

"What's so funny about that?" Elena asked her eyes narrowed.

"Considering that you're ex boyfriend wears leather a lot…" he said with a crooked smile.

"Damon respects my ideas…he stopped wearing genuine leather as soon as I took him to save the animal campaign about four years ago…he only uses synthetic leather and I didn't even force him for that…he did this out of respect of my beliefs" she said as she rolled her eyes.

"Oh…" Elijah said somewhat embarrassed now.

Elena smiled. She did a lot of volunteer work in her school days. From Charity by sexy car wash to donate blood campaign to save the animal campaign. She never noticed but she had Damon by her side all the time through every phase.

"We will not..I repeat not tolerate this…this park witnessed us growing up…we owe it to nature to save this park…Mayor Lockwood …you will not tear down this park" a sixteen year old Caroline shouted as she raised a banner.

Tyler faceplamed. He still couldn't believe Caroline made him be a part of the mob against his father.

A group of forty teenagers sitting down in front of the park holding banners stopping the construction workers from tearing down Mystic Fall's old park to build a mall.

Elena stood their standing on a car roof shouting too.

"Mystic falls owes us to stand up for it…We will not let Mayor Lockwood destroy our childhood memories...We will not let them tear down our park" Elena shouted raising her banner as some of her classmates shouted in encouragement.

A seventeen year old Damon stood there near the car , arms crossed on his chest. He could not believe he was here of all places on a damn Saturday evening. He could be out there with his friends instead he was stuck here looking after his dumb brother and his goody two shoes girlfriend.

"Why are we here again?" Klaus asked ,bored.

"They're saving the park…we are here to save their asses before things get out of hand" he said as he ran his fingers through his hair.

"it's a peaceful protest" Klaus said.

"oh…I have seen a lot of peaceful protests turned into violent brawls…" he replied as he looked at his brother who was shouting too holding a banner.

He took out a water bottle from his bag and walked over to where Elena was standing.

"Lena…drink…" he offered.

Elena took the bottle from his hands and drank fast , finishing in a minute.

"Come on…let's go home…this is enough for a day" Damon said .

"No..Damon..we are not going home…" she said as she raised her banner again and shouted in unison with her protest group.

"Elena…you haven't even had lunch…come on…" he said .

"No.." she said .

He rolled his eyes before he walked back to where Klaus was standing.

"No luck…"

"I had to try…"

"How does something so little can shout like that…" Klaus said motioning at Elena.

"Shouting yeah…It's still better then the last time she tried to save a tree they were tearing down…" Damon said with a shudder.

"Yeah..I remember..She tied herself to the tree…" Klaus said with a chuckle.

"That was Caroline's idea…almost got my girlfriend killed…It took me an eternity to convince Elena that they won't tear down the tree once she unties herself…" Damon continued in a protective tone.

He groaned when he heard Police sirens that were here to disperse the protesters. He wanted to see Liz expression when she finds out her own daughter was the leader of protestors. But for that he had to stay here. He couldn't afford that. Sherriff would probably arrest all the protestors which meant Elena and Stefan could get into serious trouble.

Elena and Stefan might get grounded for life even if Liz let them off the hook.

He knew this would happen and he was ready. He ran toward his girlfriend( who was still standing on the roof on someone's car *face palm*) dodging all the teenagers who were running in various directions.

"Elena…down now…" he said as he held out his hands to help her get down. He grabbed her hand and made a run for it. Klaus was already ready with Caroline, Tyler and Stefan in car ."

He sat inside pulling her with him , making her sit on his lap.

"I will take you all to my place" Klaus said as he drove.

"I told you…they will call police.." Damon said as he glared at Elena.

"So..what? …"

"Jenna will tell your dad and they will ground you for life …"

"Big deal" Caroline said.

"I don't think what we did was wrong…I mean it was a peaceful protest" Stefan said.

"Yes…it was until…some of the jocks started smoking weed in the back…and need I remind you that adults here think teenagers more than 5 means trouble.." Klaus answered.

"We won't still let them tear down our park down…"

"Definitely…we will do another protest ..next Saturday.." Elena said.

"Earth to Damon" Caroline said as she sat in front of him.

"What?"

"Sulking because your ex is out there with a very sexy British guy" Caroline said.

He didn't answer, sipping his drink.

"Damon…have you ever considered …that this might just be over now…she wants to move on…that's what you wanted right…" Caroline said in a low tone.

He didn't answer again.

"Come on …Damon…I think you and Elena are toxic for each other" Caroline said as she saw him drinking another shot.

"Toxic…how do you define toxic…how is our love for each other poisonous …Blonde …everyone have issues in relationship…we have too…I love her insanely and she loves me too…we are perfect for each other…"

Caroline looked at him.

"She is far too good…I balance her with my bad side. She is the good in my life and I am the one protecting her from all the bad. I never let anyone bully her. I make sure she gets what she wants no matter what I have to do for that because she is weak and selfless."

"I protect her, I listen to her, she isn't perfect you know she has flaws too …she is delicate, she is over emotional and she lets everyone take advantage of her…I keep her safe from that sort of crowd…remember when you made her practice five hours for cheer lead squad she was miserable I made her quit …she hated it she only stuck around cuz of you…I will admit ..it was partly for the fact that I was a little too protective"

He added.

"I know …roses need thrones to protect it" she said

"and its not just me..she balances me too …I can talk to her like real talk..and she motivates me and helps me …she has my back …she calls me on my shit .Remember when she busted me in front of dad . At that time I hated her for that but now when I think back…I realize that she saved

my life and I get like crazy jealous when I see her with someone else and you have no fucking idea how much I want to go and kill that son of a bitch Elijah …I literally love spending time with her…I literally thought we had future together…" he stopped pressing his lips.

"I am impulsive , I have anger issues , I am not even remotely good in academics as her but my relationship with her isn't poisonous…we have issues that we can work out…I refuse to give up on one thing that is holding my life together...I refuse to give up my Elena..."

"I know that you love her but…are you sure about this?"

"Love her…? Huh…I can't stop thinking about her…I will do anything to make her smile…I have got like rose colored glasses when it comes to her. I don't see anyone when she is in front of me…I would do anything to have her around me...do anything to stay on her side all day. When I think about my future…all I see is Elena…" he said.

"That's the most beautiful think I have ever heard and it came out of you" Caroline said as she wiped her tears.

"I remember now that...When her dog died…you stayed up two nights with her…even when Thunder was sick…you stayed with her all the time…she wouldn't eat until Thunder ate and you were the only one who could make her eat and stay sane…I remember you driving Elena to the vet daily and you even paid half of Thunder's vet bills…" Caroline said.

A moment of silence followed.

"She told me that she is still in love with you …yesterday" Caroline finally blurted out.

"I know that she loves me…" he said with a small smirk.

"The only reason she went on a date with Elijah today was cuz …well I made her go…she didn't wanted to go at all"

"What the fuck?"

That's it for today.

Thank you so so much for reviewing.

Please Please Please Review and no flames...

I need your positive support.

Love u all.

The Jealous Ex Boyfriend

Chapter 14

I am changing the rating from T to M because of smut…so you have been warned

"Klaus…" Caroline shouted to call her boyfriend to rescue her.

A panicked Klaus who was recently playing pool came to stand by his girlfriend .

"What's going on? Why are you going all red eyes on my girlfriend?" Klaus asked a glaring Damon.

"She made Elena go on a date with Elijah" he spoke through his teeth.

"you did?.." Klaus asked Caroline.

"She did…" Klaus replied to his own question.

"I had my reasons.." Caroline said.

"Care bear… I told you to stay out of it…didn't I?" Klaus said in a disappointed tone.

"You don't get to play God when it comes to us …blonde…you have ruined enough" Damon said in a dangerous tone.

"Hear me out okay…Klaus made you go on a dates didn't he…?" Caroline said.

"What has that got to do with this?" Klaus asked .

"He did that because indirectly I told him to so.." Caroline said.

Both the boys were now glaring at her.

"I pushed him to push you to go out on dates because I wanted you to see that the chemistry that you have with Elena is not what you will always get. There will be no spark with any other girl that comes into your life next. I wanted you to realize that it had always been Elena for you." Caroline said

"How fucking brilliant is that…" Klaus said with an eyebrow raised in amusement.

"It worked Damon…you realized that didn't you…you felt that it never clicked with another girl. There was no spark, no chemistry, no understanding and certainly no love. My plan worked." Caroline said with a bright smile.

"You have got to be kidding me…fine. Ok..I will give you credit for making me realize how ignorant stupid asshole I was but …you knew Elena wasn't here in Mystic Falls…how could this be a plan to get us back together?"

"I never said that my plan was to get you back together with her. I only did that to make you suffer. I was hoping Elena will be over you when she gets back and then she will be like … a forbidden fruit…you will want her but you will never have her…that was actually my revenge plan for hurting my best friend" Caroline said and regretted it the moment she saw him grit his teeth and clench his fists.

"Baby…don't push it" Klaus whispered in her ear.

"But…I am on your side now promise…" Caroline said hurriedly.

"Then why is Elena on a date with that cum guzzling cock sucker?" he asked harshly.

He looked angrier then a bear with sore head.

She put both of her hands on his chest to calm him down but he brushed her hands off.

the same reason…I want her to see that there will never be a spark again …that she won't have that magical chemistry that you two have…you will see…" Caroline said.

"Oh…oh…great * claps* bravo…" Damon replied.

"Trust me…this will work out…" Caroline pleaded.

"Lemmie get this straight .YOU were the quickest and smartest of all the dumb-ass sperm your dad shot off?!" he said harshly.

"Damon …dude Relax" Klaus said.

"Relax?…she have got shit for brains … you stupid sack of Siberian sheep shit how can you fall for this thing…( glaring at Caroline)…I can lose the love of my life to that ugly, dog-faced spawn of a boil-ridden anus brother of yours..because she somehow thinks this will work out...tell you what…If I get back with Elena which I will without a doubt I will move to Australia with her and make sure you never see her for the rest of your life …and …" he was cut off by his phone buzzing.

Elena Calling.

He looked up to see Caroline smug look and Klaus's angry look.

He smirked sheepishly. This was an awkward moment. So awkward that he felt like a bastard on father's day. His face turned red with embarrassment. Redder then a smacked butt.

"I hope you die either of pox or STD" Caroline said as she left with Klaus giving him a shrug before following his girlfriend like a puppy dog.

"Hey" he picked up.

"You were right.." he heard her voice.

"I know but what am I right about again?" he said with a chuckle.

"That I will come running back to you…" she replied with a sigh.

"Told you …you are in love with me" he said proudly.

"Shut up.." she replied followed by a giggle and that's when he realized.

"Oh God…no Fucking way" he thought.

"You're drunk…" he said in a shock.

"You're sexy" she replied.

"Where are you?" he asked again now panicked. She could hurt herself. She could get into trouble.

"I have no idea" she said with a giggle.

"Elena…honey..Babe…look around …tell me where are you?" he said as he rushed to his brother's car.

"Um…there is a tree…big big tree…*Damon teeth churns* (seriously?) …ok…there are swings and there is this spot where we use to make out…" she said as she giggled.

He drove faster.

"Your park" he said as he took a turn.

"Yes…I am at my park…" she said .

"Stay there...talk to me so I know you're not in trouble" he said as he drove faster .

"Aha…" she said.

"How was your date?" he asked. There he said it. He wanted to ask that the moment he saw her call.

"Worst date of my life…" she said with a sigh.

He was suddenly as happy as if Christmas came early. He stopped his car and jump out.

"Where are you?" he asked.

"Under the big big tree" she said.

He spotted her. He walked fastly toward her.

She was lying down, looking at stars.

"You need to get up before something bites you…" he said motioning her to get up.

"Hope it's you…" she said with a smirk.

"Get up" he said as he pulled her up.

"How did you get here?" he asked.

"umm…Elijah dropped me home…I was alone , horny and miserable so I stole a bottle from Ric…and I seriously have no idea how I got here" she said.

"Oh…" he said. "We need to get you out of here before anyone see you in this state …not good for your repo …plus you can get arrested for underage drinking" he said as he dragged her with him.

"Jenna will be home by now…I will be in so much trouble" she said . "Umm…yeah..Probably…" he said as he took out his phone to call Ric. "Hey Ric…"

"Hello to the bane of my life…so what did you do this time?" Ric said with a hiss.

"I didn't do anything…yet…anyway..uhh..Stefan…just called me …Elena will stay over at our place tonight..He wanted me to let you know" he said.

"Are you sure …she will be staying with Stefan and not YOU" Alaric growled.

That man was very cool but he was pretty protective when it came to Elena.

"Of course…she hates me remember…" he said , lying through his teeth.

"Fine…tell STEFAN to bring her home tomorrow " Ric ordered

"Yeah…whatever" he replied as he hung up looking at the small, fragile and drunk innocent girl. "Do you remember …when we used to come over here every Saturday for the protest…?" Elena

asked as he somehow managed to push her on front seat buckling her.

"I was just thinking about that…" he said with a smile that she didn't see.

"Crazy times huh" she said somehow more sober now.

"Yeah" he said as he closed her door and rushed to his door.

"We saved this park…you helped me with it" she said.

"Well…It was important to you…" he said as Stefan's car.

"You supported me in every protest, every single campaign and you made sure I stayed out of trouble.." she said.

"That was kind of my job…to keep you safe…boyfriend duty and all" he said , his eyes on the road.

"I never noticed that you know…" she said with a sigh.

"Because …it was natural…we use to do all kind of stuff for each other all the time…it wasn't anything new" he said.

She giggled.

"What's so funny?" he asked.

"Do you remember the time you broke your arm when you fell from that tree…?" she said as she pointed at a tree.

"Of course, I do honey...I had the stupid plaster cast on for like two months…" he said with a groan.

She giggled.

"That was not funny at all…not to mention it was entirely your fault" he said.

"Excuse me for saving a kitten that was stuck on the tree" she said in fake rage voice.

"The kitten jumped as soon as you climbed up on that damn tree" he said with a shudder.

"I started shouting for help as soon as I saw how high I was…" she said as she giggled.

"I had to climb up to save your ass.." he said.

"Even though you have fear of heights…" she said looking at him.

"Well…I couldn't leave you like that…" he said.

"You helped me get down but fainted yourself when you saw the height…" she said with a giggle.

"I didn't faint…I passed out…men do not faint…" he said, somewhat embarrassed.

"You fainted like a little girl and broke your arm" she mocked.

"I didn't faint …I passed out…it's a medical condition ...certified medical condition…*Elena giggles* woman…Listen to me" he said as he halted the car in front of his house.

She was laughing at him and it didn't matter to him at all. She could laugh at him all she wants if that meant he could hear her musical laughter. What is the matter with him?. "Stop being so damn poetic" he thought.

"Damn it woman…I didn't faint…I passed out" he said with a fake growl.

She stuck out her tongue mocking him.

"Do that again and I will bite it" he warned.

She laughed and mocked him again as she stuck her tongue out.

His lips smashed on hers. He missed the taste of her lips. With a fierce hold he cupped her face and he kissed her roughly, deeply and possessively .Her mouth rivaled his with equal demand. Desire licked through him searing his body . All his naughty thought from the evening back in his mind. He wanted her so badly.

It's been two and half months since he had been together with her ..for real. He wanted everything back to normal. But he had to stop because clearly she didn't felt that way yet. He had to give her time. He gripped his arms and pushed her back.

"We can't do this…" he said as he opened the door of the car. She mimicked him.

They went inside silently.

"I am so gonna have a terrible hang over tomorrow" she said.

He chuckled.

"You never told me …how was your date?" he asked as he pulled out a water bottle and pour the liquid in the glass. She was still a bit drunk . He shouldn't take advantage of that fact but he really wanted to know how her time went with that….cunt.

"Horrible." She said as she took seat.

"how so ?"

"Well…for starters..He is obsessed about you…"

"What?" Damon asked eyes widened. He certainly didn't expected that.

"All he wanted to talk about was how you were a jerk…how you aren't the guy I am suppose to be with..How I should consider you the worst mistake of my life" she said.

"He wanted you to hate me" Damon said in not so surprised tone.

"And he is so right" Elena added.

He felt like she ripped his heart out mercilessly.

He looked up to her, hurt evident in his eyes.

"I should hate you…you are bad. You were a jerk to me. You hurt me over and over and over again. I should love a guy who is worth it…a guy who is stable …who doesn't have issues like you…" she said harshly not looking in his eyes.

He swallowed the limp in his throat remembering something two and half months ago.

Klaus was sitting with him on the next day on his break up. They were at a party.

"You broke up with her?" he finally asked.

"Yup…she deserved it…I don't let people play with me." He said in a harsh tone.

Klaus just chuckled.

"What?"

"Oh dude…you're so going to regret this…" he said in a sing song voice as he sipped from his glass.

"Hold on to that thought while I go there to that red head and screw her brains out…" he said with a smirk as he waved at the red head girl.

"You like her chasing after you. Don't you?" Klaus said with a smirk holding Damon's arm restraining him from leaving.

"When I get home…She will be there …begging me to take her back" he said as he shrugged his hand off.

"Don't take advantage of the fact that she loves you insanely" Klaus said darkly.

"Since when did you join Team Elena…oh right…when you starting hanging out with Barbie" he said as his eyes narrowed.

"You really like it ..When she chases you right..?" Klaus asked.

"Yeah…I guess.." he said not knowing where the conversation was going.

"makes you feel wanted …after your mother dumped you on your father's porch…clearly sick of your nonsense" Klaus said without a hint of remorse.

"She will be chasing you for awhile. She will chase you until one day she will realize that you're not worth it ,there is gonna be a day when she stops running circles around you, she is going to GET OVER IT soon

" he said in a low tone.

Damon bit his lip but then his confident smirk resurfaced on his face.

"See…Klaus…that will be my problem…I will deal with it" he replied.

"Oh look …your red head friend found some other guy to screw with…I bet Elena wouldn't do screw with half the Mystic Falls like your red head friend just did…" Klaus said motioning toward the red haired girl who left with a guy.

"You prefer sluts over keepers but hey I am not judging you…I will support you" Klaus said with a grin that Damon wanted to wipe off his face with a punch.

"No..Seriously..as your best friend…I had to say all that. But Go ahead…I have your back" Klaus said as e dodged Damon's fist.

Why wasn't she fighting? Fighting for what he thought they had .She felt it. He felt it. Then what was the problem.

"I should hate you…but I can't" she said as she sighed and fell on couch.

She looked directly into his eyes. His eyes communicated the heartbreak he felt.

"Damon...after everything happened …Why am I still so much in love with you? Why are you still the first thing on my mind when I wake up and the last thing on my mind when I fall asleep?" she asked as she rose up.

He stiffened. Did she just say what he heard? Was she saying that she loved him?

"Dad says that I should never beg you to stay with me.*sob*. There is no point in holding on to someone who has let go of you and moved on. I should understand that your breaking up with me is suppose to be a gift*sob* that you don't deserve me and God has someone better for me"

She broke into sobs.

He couldn't move.

"People ask me …why I stayed so long and I…I tell them that I stayed until I couldn't take it anymore*sob* but the real reason I kept trying was I didn't want you to feel like I have given up on you…I never ever wanted to abandon you *sob* like your past…you walked away from me…do you know how hard is it to hold on to someone who you know never loved you back…" she said.

"But I did love you…I do love you and I will always LOVE you…" he said as he grabbed her by her shoulders.

"I hurt you, I lied to you, I messed up, I didn't prove myself as your best friend, your lover and above all a good person. But you..Elena…you are the most beautiful thing in my life. Yes..My love, my darling, my world and my life .You gave me everything. Your love, your sincerity, your trust, your heart, your body and even your soul. You hid nothing from me." He said with sad smile.

"And all I have to give you in return was me. And I didn't value you…I broke your trust…I walked away from you…Yes...I was a jerk…but look at me now..Look at me " he said as he cupped her face to make her look at him. And she never realized his eyes were glittering with tears that he wasn't allowing to escape.

"I am here right in front of you…look at me...I am crying…I know I have made a terrible mistake

but at this point I am desperate. I want you back. Please give me a chance. Just one more time to prove my love for you…I can't lose you…" he said.

"You have flaws that I can cover…I have flaws that you can cover….we are perfect for each

other…Please.." he pleaded.

He felt her lips smashed against his.

She pushed him to the couch pulling a way for a second. She sits on his lap with her legs either side. As she hovers over his lips. Getting closer. Pulling away before their lips touch, his hands running through her body, inside her shirt. As if under a spell ,his gaze never left her lips. He tried to capture her lips but she teased him pulling away slightly. He hissed. She smiled wickedly at his impatience. He tried to ignore the electric feel run through his body when she got closer again.

She dodged his lips as she wrapped her hands around him . She was driving him insane. Her lips traveled to the side of his neck. He groaned in approval of the contact, giving her a better access as his hands continued touching various parts of her body.

"I am going to do the most deprived, wrong, disgusting and filthy things to you" he whispered in

her ear.

Closing her eyes she enjoyed the feeling of one of his hand up her body towards her chest which was more pushed due to the dress she wore to her date.

He sighed feeling her against his rigid wasn't hard for him to get hard especially with the woman on top of him right now kissing his neck.

He chuckled when she bit him. Ok…That's it. He has lost it. His other free hand went up her back to her neck . Sitting up a little he grabbed a handful of her hair and slowly without actually hurting her he made her look at him. He pressed his lips against her with force running his fingers through her already disheveled hair. Feeling him getting closer, she let out a content smile .She missed the heat of his body .She kissed him back lightly, making him growl as he wanted real effort on her behalf.

He forced his tongue in her mouth fighting for dominance with hers.

"I love you" she said as she continued kissing him.

He literally purred.

She pulled away. He hissed in disapproval. She hovered over his lips. He captured them again and started where they left. He was kissing her like his life depended on it. Her lips moved with his as if he was her life line. She laughed into his mouth when he bit her lower lip. He smirked looking at her eyes for a second before he continued. In that moment the world stopped the way she kissed him made him forget to breath.

They finally pulled away, needing to breath.

"What's 2+2 ?" she asked as she breath in.

"Elena…" This was all he could manage to say.

She smiled like a devil. He knew why. She had the ability to make him forget everything in the world.

She rose up from him and turned around. He held her wrist pushing her to his lap again.

"You know what I want to do now?" he asked .

"What?"

"I want to throw you back in my bed and never let you leave"

"Then do it"

He picked her up and rose up himself from the couch.

She knew what followed next. He somehow managed not to trip on stairs as he went to his bedroom carrying his girl in his arms. He dropped her on his bed where she belonged.

He jumped on top of her. Throwing his shirt off. She bit her lip. He hurriedly moved closer toward her. His hands traveled up her neck, and tangled his hands into her hair, pulling her in. Soft grunts escaped from both of them as they tasted each hands went down to her waist moving up as he unzipped her dress to get it out of the way.

As soon as he somehow undressed her , leaving her in her strapless bra and her lacy underwear , he threw her dress to a corner without breaking their kiss.

It felt like an eternity before he pulled away panting with the aftermath of their glowing passion.

Too many cold showers these last two months. He was finally getting what he wanted.

A series of disturbing images flashed in his mind. Stefan and Elena kissing in park, Elena standing in front of Stefan blocking him to knock out his brother for kissing his girlfriend, Stefan giving Elena roses, Elena smiles to him, him breaking up with Elena, Elena in party, Elena taking care of Stefan when he was sick, Elena rejecting him after his kiss when he pretended to be sick, Elena blushing at Elijah's complements, Elena dancing with Elijah, Elena hugging Elijah, Elena getting ready to go on a date with Elijah and finally Elena telling him that she was leaving Mystic Falls.

That was it. His obsessive and possessive side was activated again.

He wasn't some close minded jerk who never let his girlfriend to anything. But he never I repeat never shared her affections with anyone. She had always been his. She belonged to him. His caveman instincts kicked in.

He started kissing her neck as she breath in and out rapidly.

"I am going to ravish you like I have never done before.." he whispered in her ear as he bit her earlobe.

He rolled on top of her , lacing his hand through hers and pinning it to her either sides.

"You tortured me these two weeks…how dare you?" he said with an evil smile as he kissed the top of her chest making her gasp.

"You're mine…I won't share you and I will kill myself before I let anything happen to you…You're going to stay with me forever…save and sound…I will never let you leave …I promise" he whispered softly and possessively .

She moaned as he kissed her roughly on her chest on top of her bra. His hands still pinning down hers.

She squirms below him, pushing him off her. He is unsure, was she changing her mind again…was she leaving him?

His thoughts was vanished as soon as she jumped in his lap and started straddling him, fighting for dominance as she grinded on him.

They started to make out as his hands ran through her naked body. She moaned against his lips.

Both of them were dangerously aroused and too much sensitive.

She was desperately in love with this marshmallow of a human. She giggled. She kissed the corners of his mouth driving him insane as her hand slid down to his pants. She stroked his package gently which was driving him insane with desire. She unzipped his pants. He pushed her down to his bed as he pulled off his pants, hovering on top of her.

"I love you" he moaned as she fondled his package. She bit his neck making him purr again.

He bent down his head to the valley of her breasts, kissing. She moaned loudly. He started kissing all over her breasts.

"Say that again" he said.

"I love you "she said with a moan as he kissed her, removing her bra.

She scratched his back leaving her marks. He didn't hiss. This was it. They were together again.

He smiled. She cupped his face and brought it back close to hers.

He looked into her eyes intently.

"I love you" he said before his gaze fell to her lips again.

He hungrily kissed her roughly as she moaned. They were literally sort of dry humping now as they made out.

Load moans from both of them filled the room.

"WHAT THE FUCK?" he heard Stefan's roar.

Damon hurriedly covered both naked him and his almost naked girlfriend with sheets.

"Stefan…What the fuck? Get out" he growled. Really displeased by sudden intrusion.

"Oh..NO….NO…No…this is not happening AGAIN" he said as he entered.

"Stef..I" Elena tried to control the situation.

"Get up now…you're not in your right mind" Stefan growled.

"WHAT? NO..she isn't going anywhere" Damon said holding her wrist .

"YES..SHE IS…ELENA…GET UP NOW…" Stefan shouted as he moved a little forward holding

her free wrist and yanking her to him, not caring she isn't wearing a bra and praying to God she is wearing an underwear.

"No fucking way…you sick bastard …get out of here" Damon growled as Stefan dragged her to his side, almost making her fall from the bed.

"Stefan…" Elena almost sheik.

"You're not in your right mind...you will be regretting this tomorrow" Stefan said helping her stand up and hurriedly getting her to his side before his brother decide to not care whether he is naked and jump out of the bed.

"This is between us …Stefan…you have no right to interfere…" Damon said as he jumped out of his bed wrapping a sheet around his waist.

"Nope…" Stefan replied as he walked over to his brother shoving back a sheet to Elena to cover herself up .

"Since she isn't in her right mind…so I will be taking her away …until she is sane enough to realize that YOU are a mistake …I will not let you screw my BESTFIREND again…I won't let you HURT her again"

"Oh..Yeah..What are you gonna do about it...I dare you..Touch her and I will break your jaw…" Elena's pissed off boyfriend growled.

"Boys…no…Damon back off…Stef let me go" she said warning them both.

Both brothers glared at each other for a second before Stefan kicked his brother in the shin.

"Fuck" he groaned as he fell down on his knees.

"Now…lets get you out of here..You dumb piece of shit" Stefan said as he dragged Elena out of the room without looking at her .

"Where are you taking my girlfriend?" Damon asked as he tried to rose up.

"Stefan..really…let go of me" Elena said irritated.

"Stef…I am not wearing anything…" she said as she tried to hide her chest with the sheet by one of her hand.

"Doesn't matter…I have seen you naked a million times before..Lena..We use to take a bath together before you hit puberty…" Stefan said .

"Yes…you've seen me naked but the rest of Mystic Falls haven't …Stef Let me go" she said puling her hand away which was in her best friend's tight grasp.

"This is just heat of the moment Elena…you will be regretting this tomorrow…" he said as he shoved her into car closing the door and running to his seat to make a run for it.

His brother was naked and car less. The situation was perfect to run away.

He sat in his seat without looking at Elena and drove away leaving his very pissed, very horny and naked brother behind.

A little far, he stopped his car and took off his shirt.

"What are you doing?" Elena nearly screamed as she tried to cover herself.

"About to have my way with you" Stefan says darkly with a smirk, throwing his shirt at her.

"Wear it …you bitch…you're making me horny…" Stefan said in annoyed tone.

She sighed in relief as she slipped on his V neck brown shirt.

"I am not wearing any pants…" she said.

"Wouldn't be the first time…. I have seen you underwear more then I have seen you in pants.."

Stefan said as he started driving again.

"I can't go home…Jenna will freak out if she see me in this state…" Elena pleaded.

"Going to Care's place.."

"Oh no…"

He called Stefan over and over again. No one picked up. He growled in frustration. "So close" he whispered.

He could still smell her fragrance on his bed indicating his girl's presence a few seconds ago before his major jerk of a brother interrupted them ,kidnapped his girl and took her away.

He called his brother again. No response . He was directed to voicemail.

"Listen up baby bro…Now I know you're just protecting your best friend but that's enough…Bring my girlfriend back right this instance or I will skin you alive, rip off your flesh , piece by piece and this may sound dramatic but I will be your worst nightmare…I will be waiting for you so…tic toc…hurry up" He threatened.

He was restless, he was desperate. He was afraid that his brother might brainwash his girlfriend again. He was jerk he would admit that…but people change and he was changing too for her. He was the person who had major ego , a person who wouldn't even change for the love of his life but even the strongest sword when placed in raging fire will soften and change its form, fire in this case was the threat of her gone from his life.

He wouldn't push her away. He would keep her in his life for the sake of his own sanity. He had to let her in…he had to show her his vulnerability . He to show her that she was his weakness and his strong point at the same time. He would let her in because she didn't abandon him. She kept fighting for them. She didn't walk away from him even when he was pushing her away, even when he was in his darkest place.

She pulled him back to life, helped him when he was losing his mind. Helped him pass his almost failed high school. Literally made him fill ten college applications daily. Boosted him when he lost hope. Partied with him when he got accepted in by college .Stayed with him when everyone was disgusted by him for being a junkie. Told him over and over again that everyone makes mistakes. She was his silver lining in the dark clouds. And that's why he needed her. He needed her because she was balance of his life.

He sighed.

He needed to talk to her now, if only she took her phone with her when Stefan took her away from him.

He called Stefan again.

"My keys…Len's keys…here Care's keys" he said as he took out a set of keys from the back pocket of his seat.

"Come on.." he said as he went out.

"Will you at least let me talk to him?" Elena asked as she also came out of the car following Stefan.

Stefan unlocked the door and went in without hesitation followed by Elena.

"What in the world?" Liz said as she came out of her bedroom to the hall away.

She gasped as she saw a shirtless Stefan and Elena in her panties with swollen lips , disheveled hair, wearing Stefan's shirt . Liz spotted a couple of hickeys on one side of her neck.

"It's not what It looks like" Stefan stated.

"I am not gonna even ask" Liz said with a sigh as she left.

"WHAT THE HELL?" Caroline shouted as she came out of her room.

"Care…"

"OH MY GOD..you two didn't…" she said with a shriek.

"Care…listen to us…."

"Wait till Damon finds out about this" Caroline said with a gasp snapping their picture and loading it in an instant in their whatsapp group.

"What the fuck?" Stefan shouted.

"Care...What the hell?" Elena growled moving forward to her.

"I found her in Damon's bed…with Damon …doing stuff to eachother…" Stefan said. "Stefan"

"Oh…that explains the hickeys" Caroline said.

"You're not surprised at all" Stefan asked.

"I was there when she called him" Caroline said with shrug.

"Care…they were doing stuff, he probably convinced her somehow to do it with him …that horny piece of crap" Stefan said clearly enraged.

"Stef…he loves her..alot..and that's coming from his biggest hater…" Caroline said.

"Stef, I started it...I wanted to do it" Elena said as she got closer to him.

Stefan inhaled in anger and then stiffened.

"Wait…" he said his eyebrows raised.

He sniffed her.

"You're drunk" he said in a disbelieve.

"Oh…No" Caroline said.

"I am perfectly sober" Elena said as she brushed him off.

"HE TOOK ADVANTAGE OF HER" Stefan growled.

"SHE WAS DRUNK…"Stefan said as he glared at Caroline.

Caroline's phone buzzed.

"It's Damon" she said.

Stefan made a face as he snatched the phone from her , answering call.

"Care…I need to talk to Elena…" he heard his brother say.

"YOU SON OF BITCH" Stefan shouted.

"Shshh…you will wake mum" Caroline said.

"Now you answer.." Damon said with annoyed tone.

"This is a new low…even for you Damon" Stefan hissed.

"Excuse me …I am not the one bursting through his brother's doors and taking his naked girlfriend away with me"

"YOU took ADVANTAGE of her" Stefan hissed.

"Stop thinking through your non- existent brain…she is my girlfriend…this kinda stuff happens between a guy and his girlfriend when they are in love and alone…do I need to have THE TALK with you again" Damon said playfully.

"The girl in love as you said should give her consent too…" Stefan growled.

"She kissed me first…that was full consent" Damon said.

"Yes influenced consent…Don't tell me you didn't knew she was drunk" Stefan hissed.

Silence followed.

Damon did knew that but in the heat of the moment, in the crazy part of the night when she tells him she is still in love with him and she wanted to give them a shot ,it slipped his mind.

"I…I..I swear it slipped my mind…I was just so happy that…You know I would never…never ever force myself on her…I could never …I would never " he couldn't find words to apologize.

"When she is in her senses in the morning …she will hate your fucking guts…" Stefan said as he hung up.

He looked at Elena.

Tears rolled down her cheeks. Stefan's hard expressions softened.

"Hey…baby…" he said as he hugged her.

"I love him…I want to stay here…I kissed him first…I wanted him…he just did what I asked him to do…" she said in between sobs.

"I hope you say that tomorrow too…" he said pushing her to the bed with him.

Caroline looked at them worriedly.

In about thirty minutes Elena was fast asleep in her best friend's arms with Caroline on the other side of the bed.

"Damon is a lot of things but he would never take advantage of Elena like that…he would never go that low…" Caroline said .

Stefan took a deep breath.

"It's hard to understand …why would she love him…after all he did…he hurt in every possible way…" Stefan said.

"She loves him because he completes her, they love eachother the same. No imbalance. He hurted her but she still held his hand. They have the chemistry but wrong timing. He balances her flaws she balances his flaws." Caroline said with a smile.

Stefan eyes narrowed.

"Yeah right…when did he ever took care of her like we did?…it's always us she comes to when

she needs help.."Stefan said.

"Stefan…it's not always about being hopeless romantic like you staring at the girl, in their case he looks at her from the corner of his eyes…haven't you ever notice …in every gathering , every party his eyes scan for her first…he looks after her from far away…he make sure she is him it's not about the cost of chocolate it's about her smile…how he supports her every stupid campaign…her every belief…without shoving that in her face…" Caroline tried to explain.

"We only noticed his bad part…" Caroline added.

Stefan bit his lip, unsure of what to say. In the end he just threw his head on the pillow and let sleep take over him.

Ring

Ring

Ring

"Get the door already…" Caroline said pushing Elena.

"Okay" Elena said in her sleep.

She rose up.

"Ouch" she said as she held her head in her hands.

Hang Over …great!

She walked to the door and slowly opened it.

Crystal blue met chocolate brown.

He smiled at her, nearly dazzling her. His hands crossed on his chest.

"We need to talk…"

"It's six in the morning" Elena moaned.

"Well…Nice to know that one of us slept last night…" he said.

"Ok…" she said .

She was still wearing Stefan's shirt and her lacy underwear. Her hair still a mess. Her makeup smeared but it looked sexy.

The only thing killing his buzz was Stefan's shirt on her. He wanted to rip that off her.

"are you coming in…or should I?"

"We will go on a walk" he said.

There it was. The way he said "We will". This attitude of his reminded him of a five year younger verision of her boyfriend…ops ex boyfriend.

"I will go change…" she said as she left.

She wore the first thing she could find in Caroline's closet. A white off shoulder V neck shirt along navy scalloped Hem Knitted shrug with denim cut of short and joggers . She ran her fingers through her hair , tying a band to her hair , making a high messy ponytail as she came out.

He smiled as he saw her struggle with her hair.

Caroline's shirt was a little too tight for her, uplifting her bosom. He smirked at her as his gaze fell on them.

"Eyes up here you jerk" she said as she walked past him, closing the door.

"Do you remember what happened last night?" he asked.

"You mean me jumping on your bones and us almost doing it…yeah I do" she said with a chuckle as she paced faster.

"I am really genuinely sorry …Elena…trust me …I never meant to take advantage of you…It slipped my mind after…after…"

"after we kissed" she completed him.

"Don't hate me" he pleaded.

"I don't regret it…even if I woke up next to you today in bed…I still wouldn't regret it…I meant everything what I said yesterday… " she said.

He sighed in relief.

"You didn't say much though…" he said.

"What do you want me to say?" she asked looking at him , taking a turn as she entered her park.

"You know exactly what I want to hear" he said blocking her now.

"I love you…I wanna give this another shot…I want to fight for us…" she said looking directly in his eyes.

His heart skipped a beat. A smile broke on his face.

He held her arm and yanked her closer to him planting a kiss full on her lips.

"I love you too*kiss*…so*kiss* so*kiss* so*kiss* damn much*kiss*…it hurts" he said as pecked her again and again.

"But..I am not staying here Damon…" she said.

His face fell but he recomposed.

"I will make you stay here but let's not talk about that.." he said lacing his fingers through hers.

"What change your mind?" he asked kissing her jaw line.

"On my date yesterday…It felt different then the time than I have been with you…going with him was the right thing to do but it felt so wrong and YOU *giggle* you are the wrong thing…yet you feel so right…" she said.

"I don't get it" he looked unsure.

"There was no magic…no spark…it didn't feel real" she said as she wrapped her arms around his neck.

He smile.

"I am sorry for everything…" he said kissing her forehead.

"It's ok…"

"Tell you what…I will take you on a real great date tonight…" he said.

"Really…" she replied kissing his cheek.

"yup…then you can tell pussyface bastard what a real date is…" he said, touching his forehead with hers.

"hmm…" she said as she pecked him on his lips.

"You look too happy…did you murder my brother?" Klaus asked alarmed.

"Nope…he need to stay alive for awhile and burn like a bitch when he sees me with Lena.." he replied with a smirk, picking his bag.

"What's your next class?" Klaus asked.

"geometry.." he replied.

"uhh…mine is trig" Klaus said as he made a face.

"Better luck with Elena this time.." Enzo added.

"oh..don't worry about that.." he said.

"I am taking her on a date tonight…an awesome date…besides we still need to talk about her moving away…she doesn't need to go now…I won't let her go now…" he said more talking to himself then Klaus or Enzo.

"A date…uhh buddy…what about your assignment…your creative writing assignment?" Klaus asked.

"Oh fuck no…"

"I think you need to cancel your plans with her" Klaus said.

"That might not be a very good idea though…since she will think your dodging her again…" Enzo said.

"Oh Fuck"

The Jealous Ex Boyfriend

Chapter 15

This chapter is dedicated to "Awakenza" and Kayleesomerhalder

Stefan entered his house. He tip toed to living room. His stunt last night might cause him, his life now. He was well aware of his brother's rage. He knew for sure that his brother would have destroyed his room by now , not that he didn't deserve it. He literally over step boundaries when he crashed his brother's and his best friend's ahmm sex party and took away his best friend.

Not that he will ever regret it. He knew his brother was a major jack ass and he had seen it number of times when his brother played his best friend. Caroline might insist on the change of behavior of his brother but he knew otherwise.

He opened the door of his room, expecting a new form a catastrophic destruction that his elder brother was capable of.

Nothing. His room was perfectly clean. Everything untouched just he left it last time.

"Boo!"

Stefan literally jumped.

Damon snorted.

"Scaredy cat!" Damon said as he walked away.

"Ok…so Where is the poop?" Stefan asked following his brother , not before picking up a baseball bat for his self defense.

"What?" Damon asked confused.

"Damn it ..Damon…Don't play me ok…What did you do this time…? Please tell me…this suspense is killing me" Stefan asked following his brother to the mini bar in their house.

"No poop …nothing" Damon answered as he smirked.

"You poisoned all these right(pointing at bottles)…so when I drink I die…or you're gonna kill me in my sleep" Stefan asked.

"Don't tempt me..babybro" Damon said with a slight chuckle as he sipped from his glass.

"PLEASE…just tell me what you're gonna do to me?" Stefan shouted.

"Shush…people will get wrong ideas …don't say that kinda stuff…" Damon said.

Stefan sighed.

"come on…you can so not be okay with what I did …lastnight" Stefan said.

"It's not the first time that you've barged in my room…ripping off my girlfriend from my bed while we were on the way of doing IT…" he said sipping from his glass.

"I never did that…." Stefan said taking a seat next to his brother, filling his glass.

"Sure you did…an year ago, we were about to do it when you barged in my room and told Lena that you had a bad breakup, you needed a shoulder to cry on so she leaves me in my misery and go with you to help lil STEFE… eight months ago you came in my room and took my girl with you when the new Dragon Ball Z episode came out…and you two needed to watch that ( Stefan makes a face) about four months ago you burst in while we were just about to jump to the main course…because WAIT FOR IT…there was a spider in your washroom and you needed her to kill it…" Damon finished in an annoyed tone.

"Actually I told you to kill the spider…YOU made her KILL the spider" Stefan said.

"Spiders freak me out okay" Damon said sharply feeling indignant.

"there was this one time when you interrupted us in our "SEXY TIME" when you found the lost episode of sponge bob square pants and you were too afraid to watch it alone" Damon continued.

"We vowed to watch it together." Stefan said.

"but I am impressed by your uncanny ability to barge in whenever I am pant less and defenseless" Damon said.

"never the less…yesterday was the only time . When I actually wanted to rip your head off…you need to know your boundaries" Damon added now in a serious tone.

"Ok…fine I get it …You are telling me that I have no regard for your privacy. I get it. But I was just looking out for her and you"

"And me…really…Stefan the last thing you will ever do is think about me ,for once"

"Look Damon…Elena already told me the situation between you two…she is ready to give it a shot…and I will be lying if I say I am comfortable with that…"

"It's between us…I don't give a damn if you're comfortable with that or not"

"really…so how do you think this will work out…her in NYC and you in Falls?" Stefan asked.

"She isn't going…"

"She will go" Stefan said.

"Moon, she isn't staying with you here…her stuff is packed, she have been accepted in a prestigious NYC college , this is a last cause…I gave her a piece of my mind too when I came here…I don't want her to get your hopes up for nothing…you two need to finish this" Stefan said.

"First of all…don't call me that…last thing I need is Elena start using that fucking nick name again and secondly we will figure it out…I am not leaving her…not ever again" Damon said.

"She won't be staying here…" Stefan said.

"Why are you so AGAINST us being together?" Damon said in an annoyed tone as he took a sip from his drink.

"BECAUSE I HATE IT WHEN YOU MAKE HER CRY" Stefan said.

"I am done pretending …that's it…I had been in love with her all my life but that's it. no, I am not okay with the fact that you broke her heart over and over again…She use to cry all night in my arms because of you…I am not okay with the fact that she was there for you in times when you needed her most but you weren't there for her at all…and I am not okay with the fact that she fell in love with you in the first place because you're selfish bastard"

"But I am changing…because of her I am becoming a better person, a person that I always dreamed of being" Damon replied without looking at his brother.

"You really mean that" Stefan didn't ask , he stated.

He didn't reply at all.

Damon didn't believe in religion or Gods but at that moment, he closed his eyes and prayed to God or whatever was out there. "Take anything away from me, take it all if you want, just let me keep this one girl…" he prayed or wished or whatever they call it.

"I am so glad that you're not EDWARD the mind reader vampire" Damon said with a smirk as he got up.

"What's that suppose to mean?" Stefan asked his eyebrow rose.

"Nothing…"

"And yeah Stefan…"

"Aha"

*punch*

"That is for kissing my girlfriend two months ago" he said with a cocky grin.

"Ouchie"

Stefan was glad that his brother punched him for that instead of accidentally blurting out one of the most hidden secret of his life. That he was in love with his best friend. Thank Lord, his brother was too far gone to notice that one.

Damon started on his assignment early. He wanted to finish the damn thing before it's time for him to pick up his girl and give her the most amazing night of her life.

In about two hours he gave up. He was suppose to write a review or an essay of about 500 words and just like he expected he couldn't even write down 50.

He was a sore loser.

In the end he gave up and copied a review from online. Five percent or not, his girl was more important. It was almost seven. He was supposed to pick her up in a half an hour. He went to take a shower.

In about ten minutes he was ready to go.

A black causal slim fit dress shirt (Why do I have everything black in my closet?) and dark denim jeans ( yay black again…what is wrong with me?) , sleeves rolled up ( even though it's damn cold …meh makes me look hotter then I already am…). He ran his fingers through his hair( I look hot in everything…:P).

His phone rang.

Elena Calling.

"Hey baby…miss me already…?" he asked playfully.

"Hey…uhh listen"

"I am on my way…are you ready already?" he said as he grabbed the keys to Klaus's car. (I am so gonna screw Jer for staying at the lake house for two days now ...I thought the deal was about one evening ….took my car with him…my car, bloody fucking emotional blackmailer)

"Yeah…about that…I...Don't think it's a very good idea…" he heard her say.

In an instant, his happy bubble pooped. A rush of disappointment and bitterness ran through him.

"Oh" he replied, his mouth forming a thin line

"Actually…Something came up…I am kind of busy with a friend and well I have to help him…" she said in a warm voice.

The old him would have shouted at her, ordered her to cancel her plans with however the fuck her friend was but he was changing.

"Control" he muttered to himself.

He swallowed his anger.

"It's ok, honey(clenching his fist)…shit happens …we will. We will go out tomorrow" he said.

"Ok…I will let you know if I am free…See you around, bye" she said as she hung up.

"See you around…see you around…" he muttered in utter madness.

Destruction Rampage time.

He was about to throw one of his chair on his dressing when he heard a knock on his door.

"Hey.." Elena said entering his room with a wicked smile.

"Seriously?" he said as a smile broke on his face.

She started laughing. Then he realized he was still holding a chair up in position to throw it.

"Oh…" he said as he put it back gently .

"Have a seat?"

"Going on your destruction rampage because things didn't go your way…" Elena said in a sharp tone, sitting on the chair he just put back down.

"no...yeah" said .

"Classic Damon Salvatore behavior" she said as she smirked.

"You're not too dressed up" he stated , checking her out .

She was wearing her Khaki lace side tail Tunic paired up with distressed skinny jeans. Her silky straight hair flowing to her back. No makeup. Yet she looked so beautiful.

"Yes…because as I said something came up with a friend…I have to help him" she said as she rose up walking towards his study table.

"Friend?" he hissed. His lips forming a thin line.

"Yes…Will you believe it? He has an important assignment and he promised to go on a date tonight with his girlfriend, so he ditches his work for her.." she said playfully , opening his binder.

"Ohh…Yeah that…"

"Yes…that…so this is your essay…" she said reading the pages he just printed.

"Pretty neat huh…I have done this …let's go..I have booked a table at…" he trailed off.

"You copied it…didn't you?"she said as her eyes narrowed.

He grinned sheepishly.

She tore it off in pieces.

"Start over again" she said.

"HEY…it took TWO hours to find that…" he said.

"It's from the first link when you search GONE WITH THE WIND REVIEW" she said.

"So it hardly took two minutes …the rest of the time you've been watching porn" she added with a glare.

She kicked off her shoes and sat on his bed, Indian style.

"We are doing this assignment…date can wait" she said.

"but.."

"no buts.."

"Fine" he said with a sigh as she kicked off his shoes too and sat next to her.

"Now what?" he asked.

"Now…I am gonna search a good movie for you to watch …you take a pen and notepad and start jolting down words that come to your mind about each and every scene…" she said as she took his laptop from his side table.

He made a face.

The old him would have told her "Up yours" and left but the new him was completely whipped and didn't care whatever they were doing as long as she was sitting next to him.

"Can I watch The God Father?" he asked.

"Nope…"

"We aren't watching The Notebook right?" he asked uncomfortably.

"Oh…Gawd no…watched it already…a month back " she said.

"We are gonna watch "Casablanca"" she said.

He made a weird face in response.

"Ok…" he said picking up the pen and paper she tossed to him.

"Now here are the key points to write the best review ever(she smiles). I am so good at creative writing that Jer use to say that I should drop my pre med idea and write a novel or something because I am that good…In-fact Stef once said I should write a book on how people should write books because I know how to captivate my readers…"

"Elena…I get it…you're good at everything…now what were the key points again?" he asked as he rolled his eyes.

"oh right that …sorry…first while watching the movie …jolt down your expectations about it, then write down words that come to your mind related important scenes, focus on characters, relate to them ( she said while using her hands),do the characters feel real to you, does the story keep you guessing, which type of scenes were recorded well, did you feel sad in a sad scene, did you feel tense ( he looked at her amused as she tried to explain), does the antagonist have reason to be bad...In the end does the climax satisfy you…jolt it all down ..Then organize it" she finished.

"That's too much work" he said as he groaned.

"I know …but you have to struggle…This hard work , this struggle that you're putting in today will give you the strength for tomorrow..So work hard baby…Don't give up" she said as she kissed him lightly on his cheek.

"ugh…(grunt) I guess I have no choice…" he said as he played the movie.

"I will make you, my Elena Gilbert's special coffee" she said with a wide smile, getting up, kissing the top of his head before leaving his room.

"Yeah sure…" he said already busy watching movie.

Finally, Friday was here. It's been two days to the night when Elena came over to help out with his assignment. Things with Elena were going in a very slow pace to his dismay, because of his work load. They still haven't touched the topic of her moving away yet.

Elena was being cautious. Taking everything slow. No physical intimacy like the night they almost…until Stefan rudely interrupted. They went out a night ago for ice cream . Other than that she came over to his place but with Caroline and Klaus and Jeremy to give him his car back so they didn't get much time alone.

"Mr. Salvatore…Can I have a word with you after class?" Professor Fell snapped him out of his thoughts.

"Sure , professor…"

(After the class)

"you wanted to see me…" he said entering his office.

"Who wrote this paper for you?" Professor asked pointing at a printed page.

"I wrote it myself" he replied making a weird face.

"Take a seat" Professor said with a mechanical smile.

"Now…we are both grownups over here …aren't we?...I checked for plagiarism…it's not copied…but let's be honest…you can't possibly write down this…" Professor said.

"I wrote it down myself but I am not gonna lie …I did take help from someone with grammar and vocabulary " he replied.

"help from who?"

"My girlfriend…she is actually pretty good at this stuff…she sort of gave me key pointers…" he replied .

"How old is your girlfriend?" Professor asked , as she took a look at his paper again.

"19, she just gave high school finals…"

"A 19 year old girl…do you really expect me to believe that?"

"no…she is actually pretty good at this stuff…she has a couple of articles published in magazines…she even won Best interstate essay writing competition , an year ago" he said confidently.

"oh…Is she interested in literature?" Professor asked looking up to him.

"umm…she will be taking med program…going for neurosurgery or something…" he said now uncomfortable. Why was his professor so interested in what his girlfriend was taking as a major in future.

"This is by far one of the best paper I've read in about last three years…with all the write elements and just about the right detail…amazing ,if I compare it to the fiction you handed over last time …

if she could make you write this good, I can say without any doubt she must be an excellent writer herself…a prodigy" his professor said , interlocking his fingers.

"uh…yeah…sure"

"We still have spot left for some students in our creative writing department…due date for submission of application is next Friday…we might even offer her scholarship…"

"oh" he replied suddenly interested .

"Talk to her about it…this could actually lead to something real big…if she is as good as I think she is"

"Hey…" she greeted him with hint of surprise in her tone as he entered.

"Hello…" he said with a cocky smile.

"You didn't tell me you were gonna come by …?" Elena said as she picked up her laundry basket.

"I wanted to surprise you…but I clearly I am the one who is surprised …why is this place such a mess?" he asked as his nose wrinkled ,seeing some dirty socks on her cushion.

"I am a little behind my chores…Jer is busy with his exams and Jenna is at Ric's place all the time" she said sheepishly.

She threw the laundry basket in the store as she turned around to look at him.

"Why are you here?" she asked .

He didn't reply instead he was looking around with a disgusted expression on his face.

"What?" Elena said.

"I came here to….*presses lips*….damn it Elena …when is the last time you actually cleaned this

place?" he said in a very annoyed tone.

"Oh Lord…not the Mr. cleaning OCD Damon again" she said as ran her fingers through her hair.

"You call it OCD …I call it not being a fucking slob" he said in an annoyed tone as he started picking up clothes from the floor.

"How long?" he asked while he neatly piled up clothes in her basket and then moved toward her living room.

"C'mon …It's not as bad as it looks" she said trying to act cool but failing miserably due to his enraged glare.

He sighed gritting his teeth. He literally wanted to bang his head with a wall. Elena sure was a lot of things, she was star student, excellent cook, awesome teacher, beautiful lover , amazing daughter, loyal bestfriend but she was a slob.

Damon could tolerate everything but there was one thing he couldn't stand for and that was unsanitary health scare environment.

"How hard *picking up socks* is it * dropping those socks in basket* for you to put these damn socks in the laundry basket" he said.

"Seriously Damon…you gotta learn to deal with this…I cannot always obsess about cleaning like you" she said as she threw her jacket on the couch. He picked it up instantly and folded it neatly.

"How can you even live over here …? * wide eyed* I will be damned before I have to live in this dirty * picks up dishes on table* disgusting * cleans the table with a washcloth* pigsty" he said as he carefully took the dishes to kitchen.

"I can't believe you can live in this toxic dump where you can't even pick after yourself" he said as he scrubbed the plates.

He cleaned the kitchen counter carefully . He retreated back to living room.

"Stop shouting at me…you're not my dad" Elena said angrily .

"Gross...Thank Lord for that...Besides , My daughter would NEVER be a slob like you ELENA…" he said as his nose wrinkled as he took out the vacuum cleaner.

It took at least 30 minutes but her living room was spotless now.

"What the hell?" he growled as he bent down , locating a pile of very smelly , dirty clothes behind the washing machine.

"When was the last time you did your laundry?" he said .

"Uh…" she couldn't remember.

"Eeelena…" he repeated with the softest tone he could muster.

"Three weeks…" she replied.

She cringed waiting for him to blow up after her confession but he just sighed looking at the huge pile of clothes that were reeking so much one could mistake them as garbage.

"I can smell…vinegar, rotten eggs, fart and tampons from these" he said with a disgusted face.

He held out his hand.

"What?" she asked , afraid now .

"Hand me a shovel" he said as he took off his shirt.

"You're gonna kill me because I didn't do my laundry" she said.

"Baby…I love you so much…but in fucking way am I gonna pick them up with my bare hands" he said.

"You don't need to do that…" she said looking at him.

"oh I do baby…or I won't be able to sleep at night…" he said closing his eyes.

Her dishes were done , her laundry was done and her house was spotless.

It wasn't the first time, he did her chores though. She knew the one thing that he could never tolerate was unorganized house. He just had to clean stuff up. He would be restless if there was a single spot on carpet or his extra linen closet wasn't organized. Not that she didn't take advantage of this particular habit of his. In her five year course of relationship , she use to purposely ask him to come on days when her house was a mess. She knew he couldn't stand mess. And then Badda Bing Badda Bong . He would do all her chores in his utter frustration. It was a win -win situation.

"What are you thinking about?" he asked as he saw doze out.

"Nothing…" she said as she saw him slip on his shirt, running fingers through his hair.

"yeah…I came over here to tell you that…" he trailed off when she saw some papers in his jacket's

inner pocket.

"What's this?" she asked.

"Ah..that's nothing…My professor couldn't believe I wrote my review by myself …I told him I got help from my 19 year old girlfriend who just passed her highschool so he said you might turn out something big if you could make me write that good so he asked me to suggest you to apply in the creative department of my college…he is totally taking a jibe I get ..these were the application paper he forced me to take…* throwing the papers in bins*like I said useless …why would a girl who is getting a scholarship in med program go for literature…anyway I wanna take you out …and we also need to discuss you moving away.." he said fast.

She could sense he was nervous.

"I can't go out with you…" she said.

"Why not?" he literally looked like he was about to break down.

"because.."

*ring*

"I swear if it's Elijah…I am gonna snap" he thought.

"Hey…Lena" Sara said as she enetered.

Sara was one of Jenna's friend from work. She had twins with her Chinese husband , Lee Chen.

The two devils were hiding behind their mum's legs.

"Hey Kiara, Hey Jero " Elena said lovingly to the blushing children.

"Thank you so so much for agreeing to babysit them on such a short notice…" Sara said earnestly.

"How's Mao?" Elena inquired about Sara's sister in law .

"She is better…she is in NYC college now…" Sara said with a smile.

Damn fucking NYC again.

"oh…good for her" Elena said warmly

"Me and Lee will pick them up in about four to five hours…thankyou so much Lena" Sara said as she handed over a duffle bag to Elena.

"Anytime" Elena replied earnestly.

"Bye…Call me if there is an issue" Sara said.

Damon gritted his teeth as he looked at the children.

Disgusting Evil creatures " he hissed under breath. "Damon!" Elena snapped him out of his thoughts.

"As I was saying…I can't go today because I promised to babysit Kiara and Jero."

"Are you going on a date?" Kiara asked.

"yeah we were but change of plans , I guess" he said with a sigh.

"You can leave if you want…" Elena said.

"no...I just wanted to spend time with you…It's okay …I will stay" he said. He really legitimately wanted to spend time with her why else would he stay with her even in the presence of the two devils.

"umm…you don't like children…I know that…I understand" she whispered as she held hand of Kiara while picking Jero up and taking them to living room.

"What? No. I love children. I was actually thinking of having our very own…" he said.

"Damon" she warned him.

"Elena…I am hungry" Kiara said.

"Oh honey...I will make you a jam toast…how does that sound?" she said.

"Yummy.." Kiara replied.

"Pick me up now…" Kiara added.

"Damon…take Jero.." she said handing the three year old boy to her boyfriend.

Damon literally cringed. He really disliked children. But he swallowed the limp in his throat and took the boy from her, holding him far away from him.

Elena picked up Kiara and left.

"so…you're Elena's boyfriend huh?" the kid asked boldly.

"Yeah" he replied , as he dropped the boy softly on couch.

"Well…break up with her then?"

"WHAT?" he asked surprised.

"Do you not understand English…I said break up with her…" Jero replied cheekily.

"Why would I do that?" Damon asked ,surprised.

"because I am in love with her…" Jero replied.

"Oh…" Damon said , unsure of how to reply.

"Yes…I am going to marry her…so you better back off pal" Jero said darkly.

"Excuse me"

"Excused"

"look! kid …you're adorable …I usually break jaws of the guys who say that…besides you're kid…she needs a man like me" Damon said showing him his biceps.

"oh…adorable…am I?" Jero said in a threatening tone.

"What are you gonna do about it?" Damon asked with a grin.

*claps his hands once*

"Ouch…" Jero said as he started crying.

"Che cazo?(What the fuck?)" Damon said.

"What happened…?" Elena said as she came out , worried.

"he hit me" Jero said as he cried harder.

Damon's mouth fell open.

"DAMON" Elena said as her eyes widened.

"Cazzo bugiardo( fucking liar)!" Damon shouted.

"You heard him...hit me right?" Jero asked in between sobs.

"DAMON" Elena said , alarmed.

"I swear baby…I didn't touch him at all" Damon said as he saw Elena picking up the crying kid who snuggled into her chest, smirking at one point.

"figlio di putana ( son of bitch)" he whispered , shocked.

"DAMON…enough"

"I am so sorry baby…" Elena said as she cradled Jero who at that point stopped crying.

"Elena…Elena…I pooped in my diapers" Kiara said while running in circles.

"oh ..no" she groaned.

"Don't put me down…he scares me" Jero said as he hid himself in the crook of her neck.

"but baby darling…your sister…" Elena tried to reason with him.

"Make him clean her" Jero said without looking at horror struck Damon.

"No…not even in million years" Damon said backing away slowly.

"Damon please.." Elena pleaded.

"Baby…no" he said , he looked like he was about to cry.

"Elena…" Kiara shouted in irritation.

"Oh fuck no!" Damon said .

"Damon..No swearing in front of the kids" Elena literally growled.

"I am out of here" Damon said as he retreated to leave.

"You're gonna leave me alone with the kids…you are gonna walk out on me just like that…and

here I thought we had something special…" Elena said in her most dramatic voice ever.

He stopped.

She knew it was working.

"ah well…I guess I will just call ELIJAH to help me out…" Elena said.

That hit a nerve. He turned around. Even her saying Elijah's name , swirled a tide of extreme anger and jealousy within him.

"You don't need Elijah to help you out when I am here" he said in dark tone as he walked back and picked the three year old girl up.

"I hate kids" he whispered to himself.

He curled his fingers in disgust. First her chores now changing diapers. If Klaus or Enzo ever found out about this his bad boy reputation would tarnish.

"Damon hurry up…she will get rash or something" Elena said from across the room.

"Ok…Kiara right…how do we do this?" Damon asked.

Kiara who was lying on couch , rolled her eyes. Damon closed his eyes in utter repulsion as he removed her pink pants.

He pulled away the tabs of the dirty diaper, wrinkling his nose in disgust. "Oh my God! Oh GOD! " he almost sheriked as he pulled the dirty diaper away from the girl.

"Throw it…Throw it" Kiara said in disgust.

"Don't throw it...I will not clean that up" Elena shouted.

"Like you ever clean anything, woman" he said as he wiped the kid with baby wipes.

He cringed as pulled up front of the new diaper and closed the tabs.

"Yay…Done" Kiara said as she got up and ran away.

Gross Gross, What am I doing with my life?. " he said as he held the dirty diaper from an edge and threw it in the bin at the back of house.

He ran toward washroom, cleaning his hands over and over again.

"We are SO not having kids" he said to Elena as he came out.

"I am making a fool out of myself ..Klaus" he whispered to Klaus over the phone.

"Damon..mate! Relax! "

"I can't relax…I literally did something that is on top of my NOT-TO-Do List" he hissed.

"what…smelled tampons or something…?"

"Why did I call you again?" Damon asked.

"you didn't call me…I called you Caroline says she has two tickets for the mov…"

"Done…"

"but listen…"

"I don't care what movie it is…okay…I need to take her out…talk to her alone" Damon said.

"I will send Kol…he will give you the tickets" Klaus said with a chuckle.

"later motherfucker!"

"Are the little devils asleep?" he whispered as he entered her room.

"Yup" she said as she ran her fingers through Jero's hair.

Ring.

"I think their mum is here" Elena said as she got up.

He heard distant voices from living room. Damon looked over sleeping Kiara , who was far more fun than Jero.

"They must have really bugged you" Sara said as she entered Elena's room along with her husband.

"No…not at all…It was okay…actually better then okay…Damon helped me with them" she said gesturing to her boyfriend proudly.

"Oh…he is still your boyfriend" Sara asked , surprised.

"yes..he actually changed their diapers because I get nauseous * Damon facepalms* and watched Dora the explorer with them while I made them sandwiches" she said cheerfully.

"Wow…boys do that , now a days?" Sara asked , impressed.

"Nope, only my guy does that…" she said , holding his arm proudly as Sara and Lee picked up their sleeping children.

"Thank you, Damon" Sara said earnestly.

"You will make a great dad someday" she added with a wink.

He just replied with a nod and a casual smile.

Sara and Lee left after saying goodbyes.

"I am never ever babysitting again…" he said as he closed the door.

Elena giggled.

"Come on…they weren't that bad…" Elena said.

"Are you kidding me…They are like a mini psychopath" he said with a grunt.

Elena smiled.

"What?" he asked.

"Thank you…for helping me out…I know it's Friday night and you like to party on Friday night and this might be your worst Friday night…" she trailed off when he cupped her face. Feeling his lips against her she sighed. She climbed on top of him as she straddled his looked down at him and saw him and pecked him once , he groaned as he moved up , capturing her lips, their kiss soon turned into a make out session .He grabbed her ass making her hips grind against his.

In about a second she removed his jacket. Her nails dug into his neck. Wincing a bit at the nails, Damon pressed against her a bit harder, his lips moving from her lips down her jaw to her neck. She grinned against his kiss when he pressed his lips against hers again, passionately and possessively, wrapping her arms around his neck .

The way she kissed him back was electric he eagerly moved into it, clinging like she was a life preserver and he was a ship in storm.

"Again with the poetic descriptions…" he thought.

His hands moved to her lower body.

"I don't like this dress" he said as he continued making out with her.

"Then get rid of it" she replied as she pulled away for a second.

Ring.

Ring.

"Son of bitch" he growled .

They pulled away in utmost frustration. " must be Kol" Damon said in a irritated tone.

"What? why?" she asked.

"Cuz..I wanted to take you out…on a movie…Klaus and Care were giving away tickets …" he said getting up, wearing his recently removed jacket again.

"Movie" she said with a beam.

"yeah…it's been awhile…we …we went out" he said. The last time they watched a movie together was an year ago. They had been busy with his exams and then his college and then his huge ego .

He opened the front door.

"Hey" Kol greeted with a grin.

"Give me my tickets and get out of here" he said, not at all in cheerful mood now.

"uhh…yeah sure…somebody is eager…" Kol said as he handed him two tickets.

"even Care couldn't get Klaus to take her to this movie with him… I must say Elena …you are one lucky girl" Kol said with an evil smirk.

"What movie are we gonna watch?" Elena asked warmly.

"TWILIGHT" Kol answered.

Color drained form Damon's face. That's it, his bad boy reputation ruined , tarnished, fucked.

"Enjoy the movie" Kol said with a grin and left.

"you bought us Twilight tickets…? How sweet of you *kiss* I will go change…I will be back in five minutes…" she said as she went upstairs.

Damon took out his phone and texted his best friend/worst enemy.

" Fuck you-Damon"

"\()/hahahah–Klaus"

" Please save me ()—Damon"

"Enjoy your sparkling vampires ( ³)—Klaus"

" Rot in hell (-_-)—Damon"

He stuffed his phone back in his pocket when Elena reappeared.

She was wearing striped off shoulder top paired up with skinny jeans . Her hair as flowed to her back.

"It's going to be cold outside" he said eyeing her naked shoulders.

She showed him her black cropped jacket blazer.

"We're ready then…" he said as he opened the door for her.

"yup"

"Why are you wearing a hat?" Elena asked him as she sat on their reserved seats.

"I like wearing hats when I am watching movie" Damon replied as he tried to get a bit lower.

Four months ago , Damon wouldn't be seen dead in watching this particular movie.

"You're wearing that so nobody will recognize you here…right?" Elena hissed.

"baby … I really love you but you're killing me now" he said with almost making a pout.

"You bought the tickets" she said , glaring at him.

"Yeah…I did.." he said in the most helpless tone.

"Take off your hat" Elena ordered.

"No.."

"Take off your hat or I am leaving…"

"Really…let's go"

"DAMON"

"Fine" he hissed as he took of his hat.

"Relax…Damon ! Guys watch twilight too…" Elena said with a smile.

"only if they come out of the closet…" he snapped.

"Damon…" she warned.

"Oh look…the vampire with makeup…*snort*…the vampires that kiss a lot…"

"shush" Elena hushed him.

"Wow…a sparkling vampire …what's next a werewolf falling in love with a zombie…" Damon almost shouted after about twenty minutes.

"actually the werewolf falls in love with Bella and Edward's daughter in book four" A women on his right said.

"you mean the werewolf that has hots for mouthbreather( Bella)" Damon said with a disgusted face.

" yes…Jacob" the lady answered.

"This is so fucked up " Damon whispers to Elena.

Elena glares at him.

"aww..just look at the way he looks at her" Elena whispered ( the valley scene).

"*snort* he looks constipated when he is around her" Damon replied

As the movie was about to end , Damon's tolerance level was running out too.

"Oh My God…fuckface(Edward)…stop staring at her when she is sleep...this is creepy not romantic…ok this movie is officially on top of My Worst Movies Ever List…it beats fucking High School Musical…." He whispered in Elena's ear.

She had to stifle her laugh.

"Stop it" she said playfully hitting him.

He grinned.

"You know I think…Bram Stooker will probably rolling in his grave right now…" Damon whispered.

"One more word and I will make you watch the sequel with me" Elena warned.

"I rather have my testicles removed" he hissed.

"a vampire getting hit by sunlight would burst into flames, not sparkle like a glittery disco ball" he said in an annoyed tone while driving his girlfriend back after watching the most horrible movie ever. He wouldn't even admit this even if his life depended on it but he actually had pretty good time with , only because of her on his side.

"Damon …when I said give me one reason you didn't like it…I meant just one…you have already covered twenty reasons..I get it you don't like it" Elena said looking at him.

"and her blood smells good to everyone …Fuckface ( Edward), creepy short girl ( Alice) and J…James …I mean what is it that makes her blood so special? Does she have a special blood type the world has never seen before? Is it her low iron? WHAT IS IT?!" he said.

"And Don't even get me started on that guy James…he is a bad guy…who would name a bad guy James..Now Lord Voldemort is good bad guy name…"

"OK..OK…you hated it I get it"

"No shit Sherlock"

"He wanted to stay…I could see it in his eyes how much he wanted to stay over but I didn't invited him in …when we came back…" Elena said to Caroline over the phone.

"told you he is totally wrapped around your pinky now" Caroline said with a giggle.

"making him watch Twilight was a harsh move though…we all know how he hates girly movies…" Elena said.

"but he stayed with you throughout everything …right…in between totally unideal conditions …he still stayed to spend time with you" Caroline said in a sweet tone.

"Yeah..well…he was gonna walk out …when I made him change Kiara's diapers…" Elena said.

"I still can't believe you made Damon Salvatore change diapers"

"I know…" Elena replied with a giggle.

He didn't let me watch the movie though with all his snarky commentary …but he was still quite cheerful…he tried to hold my hand once or twice…but Mrs. Green sitting on my left so I shrugged him off" Elena added.

Caroline snorted.

"but you know…I wouldn't have minded even if he got all moody Damon on me today…he is a mess…he can be really moody…he is sometimes very hard to handle…but I want him in my life…I love him Care" she confessed.

"It's weird you know…I never understood that…you two are totally different…yet you two are crazy about eachother" Caroline said.

"he isn't perfect…he annoys me…he says stupid stuff to me and then takes it all back but put it all aside and I realize that I will never find someone who cares or loves me this much…and you have no idea what kind of things he is doing just to make me smile" Elena added with a nervous giggle.

"What are you going to do now Elena…I mean will you still move out?" Caroline asked in a serious tone now.

"I don't know…I need to think it through once…"

Damon took off his shirt and jumped on his bed. He really wanted to stay over at Elena's place tonight. It's been awhile …a quite long time come to think of it… that he slept with her in his arms.

One of the best feeling he ever felt in his life was the weight of his girl pressing into his chest as her one hand holds tight to the fabric of his shirt.

He recalled the first night after his break up , when in the middle of night he rolled around his bed and tried to wrap himself around his girl that wasn't even there. His cold sheets and empty bed mocked him. He never thought it was possible to miss someone so much . Her chocolate brown eyes had haunted him that night.

He smirked. He actually did her laundry, changed diapers of the children she was babysitting , watched Dora the explorer with the devil himself who claimed to be in love with his girlfriend ( what a competition!) and watched fucking glittering vampire movie with her. And to his amazement, he actually enjoyed it. Why was everything so fun with her around. It was not an ideal date situation. Normal couples would have went out on a dinner and talk things out but they weren't normal. They were Damon and Elena. The extremely good at everything girl and the bad boy ( yeah right!)/jerk/over protective guy.

Yet, they were compatible. He couldn't bear to live in a world where Elena wasn't with him. The thought of losing her sent shiver down his spine and caused him physical pain.

They had issues, real fucking issues. Elena was calm while he was stormy. She was yielding he was dominating. She behaved rationally and he behaved impulsively. She was sweet and warm , he was harsh and cold. But with her one his side, he was a different.

He sulked, last two months , missing her like crazy. He thought it was the green eyed monster in him that made him pin after her desperately.

And then it clicked, he was in love with a girl who was all wrong and all right for him at the same time. He knew he loved her so much even when sometimes they drove each other insane, no one could explain it. The reason it was all so confusing was because it's true love. And if love didn't have challenges, what would be the point. Their relationship was bound to work out because great relationships aren't great because they don't have problems, they are great because both people love each other so much that they would do anything to make it work and they didn't have to even work hard because she was the right person for him and she made it work effortlessly.

Her beautiful doe eyes were the last thing on his mind when he fell asleep.

Sneak peak of the next chapter

She was pressed against the rough wall , her hands pinned to her either sides. He looked enraged. His eyes were burning with wrath.

If looks could kill.

"You're getting it all wrong" Elena choked .

"you have feelings for him…don't you?" Damon hissed.

His nostrils flared, he was giving her his ultimate death stare. His lips pressed together , restraining himself from saying something he would regret later. But her silence was driving him insane. This had to be the longest second of his life.

The Jealous Ex Boyfriend

Chapter 16

"Someone looks like they still didn't get laid last night…" Klaus said with a grin.

"Yeah…right …" Damon replied with cold sigh.

"When was the last time…you got laid again…?" Klaus asked, amused.

"Can we not talk about that…?"

"Somebody is cranky now…somebody needs to get laid…"

"I will break your jaw if you don't shut up, it doesn't help your case after the stunt you pulled last night" Damon gritted through his teeth.

"Yeah…how was Twilight…? Words in the town that you've joined Team Edward …and that you even have T-shirt to support him…" Klaus said with a grin.

Damon pressed his lips.

3 ( sigh) 2 ( puts his coffee cup down) 1 ( fist clenched)" Damon said as he launched a punch blocked expertly by Klaus.

"You punch like a girl , Salvatore…" Klaus said pushing his knuckle away.

"Revenge will be taken…" Damon said with a dangerous glare.

"Bring it on, Bitch" Klaus replied with a smirk.

"You should know by now that people who get on my nerves don't end up in good situations…They say it's good to let your grudges go but I'm quite fond of my grudges…speaking of which …. Donavon ! You useless scum…I need an another cup over here" Damon shouted to

the blonde boy on the other side of the grill.

Matt Donavan, Elena's ex boyfriend. Damon held a grudge against this guy because he was Elena's first kiss. Somehow he felt like Donavan stole something from him. It didn't help Matt Donavan's case that he was still Elena's close friend. Her being friendly with her ex was something he despised , ALOT. Even though their relationship ended six years ago.

"Three cups coffee…let me guess …waiting for Elena…" Klaus said.

"We were suppose to have brunch together…she is late …" He said making a face.

"Here is your coffee" Matt said with a smile as he placed another cup on table.

"What are you smiling about? Huh… squirm!" Damon said. Matt's smile faded.

"Dude…he is just being nice to us because of …." Klaus trailed off with a smirk.

"1st April…yes…I totally forgot…"

"yes...the day we play meanest pranks on the dumbest people of Mystic Falls" Klaus completed.

"Remember what we did to Donovan over there…?" Damon said with a wicked smile playing on his lips.

"Yeah…you hated that guy…we were all so cruel to him…the time when we offered him chicken nuggets filled with Ghost pepper , world's hottest chili pepper " Klaus said.

"He was all… oh Thank you …( imitating girl's voice) I knew there was some good in you…deep down…" Damon said with an added snort.

"Poor kid ran about mile…shouting water! Water!" Klaus added with an evil laugh.

"and the time we paid Mason to pretend to sleep with Stefan…naked!" Damon said as he laughed at the memory of horror struck Stefan.

"and the time when I dressed up as chainsaw welding manic and chased him down for a mile" Klaus said.

"He screamed like a thirteen year old girl that day" Damon said.

"Man…we were so mean back then…"

"What are you talking about…that one happened last year" Damon added.

"One year Damon…do you know what that means…we are not some teenagers anymore…mate…we are men now…these childish games like putting hair removing lotion in Caroline's shampoo or replacing salt with sugar so Elena makes a salty coffee or…" Klaus trailed off

"chasing down Stefan with a chainsaw in manic custom…" Damon added.

"yes..that too… that was pretty childish of us…We need to grow up now finally" Klaus said in serious tone.

"We need to upgrade our pranking game" Damon suggested with a smirk.

"Yes" Klaus said with smirk.

"To the best prank ever " Damon added raising his coffee cup up.

"To the best prank ever" Klaus said raising his water bottle.

"Wow!" Matt's gasp behind them snapped them out of their "moment".

"Hey Matt" he heard Elena's voice.

He turned his head around .

There she was, his girlfriend .

She was wearing a simple black button up blouse and black and yellow floral print pleated skater skirt paired up with flats.

Her hair were in waves flowing down to her back. She hugged Matt with a smile. Damon felt continuous stabs of jealousy that made his eyes go dark and his mouth became a straight line.

"Thank you so much for those cookies you baked for me…they were delicious…" Elena said with her brightest smile.

"Wait…Donavan baked cookies for her…what a pussy…wait…motherfucker…why would he do that?…because he must have heard Elena broke up with me…I knew that son of a bitch was just looking for a chance to steal my girl…game on Donavan! " Damon thought.

"Anytime…" Matt said in a sweet tone that made Damon almost gag. "Fucking despo!" he thought.

Klaus smiled widely looking at Damon's enraged expression. He knew exactly what was going through his best friend's mind.

"You're late" Damon said as he rose up , going behind his girlfriend, wrapping his arms around her ,clearly showing Matt, that they were still together.

"I am so sorry …I woke up late…" she said as she turned around facing him . She wrapped her arms around his neck, pecking him once, making him forget all his jealous thoughts awhile ago. That's what she did to him. She made him feel like the only guy on the planet.

"aw..well …when you put it that way…it's okay" Damon replied .

"Hey Klaus!" Elena greeted.

"Hello!"

His phone buzzed.

"Excuse me!" he said with a smile as he left.

"so…I wanted to…"

"Damon…I need to talk to you about something…"

"Yeah…me too…"

"Your dad called last night…"

"WHAT?"

"Yeah…well…he wanted me to ask you to go to Council's meeting on his behalf today" Elena said.

"Council…dad…What?'

"and yeah…he is fine…Italy is treating him great…he still needs to stay their because his branch

is new and he need to make sure everything is fine before he comes back so maybe another half year I guess" she chatted.

"Tell him by all means stay there as long as he likes but I AM SO NOT GOING TO ANY COUNCIL MEETING" he growled as he rose up.

"Donavan, Bill" Damon shouted.

"I will pay…" Klaus said shoving money on the table with utter frustration.

"What's up with you?" Elena asked.

"Caroline…she is going on a what she states a friendly dinner with Tyler?" Klaus said.

"Klaus…you're getting it all wrong…" Elena said.

"oh so it's okay for the blonde to go on a date with her ex boyfriend while she is dating Klaus" Damon snapped.

Elena glared at him.

"you don't need to get uncomfortable…Care have no feelings for him at all…they are just going out on a dinner to discuss the upcoming party Mrs. Lockwood is planning and Tyler will be helping her…this is strictly work" Elena explained.

"So …THEY have to go on a dinner to discuss WORK" Damon said.

"Klaus…Don't let Damon get to you…There is a reason she is in a relationship with you and not him…there must be a reason she is in love with you and not Tyler…you don't need to worry about anything …trust her" Elena said.

Klaus bit his lower lip in confusion.

"Dinner with ex boyfriend…sure…why can't you go with her too? In case Tyler tries his moves" Damon said, he was just looking out for his friend there.

"That will be too weird…" Elena said.

"Yes…because blonde going on a date with her ex is not weird at all" Damon replied looking at her.

"Fine…Klaus …if it makes you comfortable…I'll go with her" she said, touching his arm.

"well…it's not that I don't trust her…it's just…I'll feel better if you go with her" Klaus said.

"There…problem solved…( holding Elena's hand which was previously on Klaus's shoulder) let's go...see you in the evening (looking back at Klaus)" Damon said while almost dragging his girlfriend out.

"What is the matter with you?" Elena said as he took a sharp turn, driving fast.

"Why are you driving like maniac?" Elena added.

He didn't reply at all.

"If it's about your dad…(his fists clenched on the steering wheel) ok…it's about your dad…Damon…"

"Stays about an year abroad…doesn't call me even once…still calls for favors…huh…the nerve of him" Damon said absent mindedly.

"I promised him…that you will go" Elena said.

"I AM MOST CERTAINLY NOT GOING…" he said , accelerating his car.

"Damon…you're the elder son…it's your responsibility …no…it's your duty as founder family member…" she was cut off by Damon in mid sentence.

"I don't fucking care about any of this shit" he said halting his car outside his house.

"You will have to go" Elena said opening her door.

"I am not going anywhere…" he said slamming his door after him as he rushed inside his house. "Damon…I promised him…"

"You should have checked in with me first…"

"Please…for me" she said making her best puppy dog face.

He looked at her once. He moved toward her , cupping her face.

"Not even for you" he said , leaving her face as he turned around.

"Damon Salvatore…I promised your dad that you will go and you will have to go…I will make you GO…IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO" she said as she followed him.

"Fine…make me" he said challenging her.

"The meeting starts in about 30 minutes…you need 15 minutes to reach there…" she said.

"and you think you will manage to convince me in like 15 minutes…yeah ! Good luck with that…" "You asked for it" she said , opening the top button of her blouse.

"Sex…really? You're gonna seduce me into going to the council meeting" he said, amused.

"I am not gonna have sex with you…" she said opening the next two buttons revealing her cleavage .

"Why not?" he said with a smirk.

She moved toward him, getting closer to him until their noses touched.

"I will be in your room naked in two minutes…" she whispered to him.

"Or we could do it …right here" he said holding her close to him by wrapping his arms around her waist.

"Screw the meeting…get me a drink …I will be in your room" she said in her most sultry voice.

He nodded, not able to say a word now. He was too turned on.

She ran up to his room while he moved fast toward the mini bar in their house. He impatiently poured a drink in a glass and moved fast toward his room.

He took a deep breath. This was it. He still needed to talk to her about her moving out of town but that could wait.(He needed to be in her ,oh sorry, with her , right now.)

He pushed the door knob to enter his room only to be denied access.

"Bitch" he muttered.

"Elena…open the fucking door" he pounded on his door impatiently .

"Nope…" she replied.

"Elena…I swear I will break it down" she heard him growl. She chuckled.

"Sure…" she said .

"Oh my Gosh….this feels so good" she fake moaned.

"Why are you doing this to me again?" he asked almost in a whisper.

"You're going to that meeting" she stated.

"No" he growled.

"Oh…God…! Oh My God…" she fake moaned.

He was getting the mental images of him on top of her, doing all the stuff that he haven't done in a long long time.

He was hard, now. Too hard.

"Fine..I am going to that meeting but when I get back…you're going to be so sorry for what you did…I am going to make you shout and cry so hard you will think the night in lake house was walk in park" she heard him growl .

"bla bla bla" she mocked him.

"You are literally killing me now" he thought as he heard her moan one more time. He knew her moans were fake but they did succeeded in doing their job and that was to make him go completely insane.

"You're gonna be so sorry for this" he said one more time before leaving.

"15 more crunches!" Stefan said . Elena had her arms placed on the back of her head as she lifted.

"Can't do anymore" Elena said as she gasped for breath.

"20 more crunches" Stefan growled.

"Okay Okay" she said.

"So…now that you two are back together. what's the plan?"

"Oh God…that reminds me I need to get out of here before he gets back from the meeting…" she said as she rose up on her feet.

"Lena…really…not again…" Stefan said . He knew exactly what Elena must have done to get his brother to go to that meeting.

"You know how dangerous playing with his hormones is…" Stefan added.

"I know…last time I did that …I was sore for days" Elena said as she remembered the night at the lake house.

" I don't need the details of how you two screw like bunnies" he said as he followed her.

"but…Elena…I can see that you're not gonna stay over here…then Is this gonna be a long distance kinda thing between you two?" Stefan asked.

"We haven't really talked about it yet…" she admitted.

"So…what? wait…Elena you're not gonna dump him in the end of the month right?...Elena…I love you but I won't let you do that to him…he is genuinely working very hard to make it work…this will break him…you're not gonna hurt my brother like that…" Stefan warned.

"Stefan!"

"You really think I will ever hurt Damon…to think that you think I will sink that low…" Elena said as she turned around.

"I am …I am sorry…I am just concerned about both of you" he said as he cupped her face.

"Stef…just trust me okay…I know what I am doing…" she said with smile before kissing him on a cheek.

"It's good to see that you care so much about your big bro" Elena said with a smirk.

"I will rip your throat out if you ever tell anyone about this" Stefan said with his eyes narrowed.

"I should go" she said with a smile.

"I will drop you off"

"Fine"

"This is so fucking boring" he whispered in Ric's ear.

"I know" Ric said with a cold sigh.

"And look at that old scrawny faced Gilbert…evil hog" Damon said as he pointed to John Gilbert.

"I hate that guy" Ric said with a nod.

"me too…"

"me three" Jenna said as she joined them.

"you're not suppose to drink" Ric said as he glared at Damon.

"I am just taking a sip…jeez " he said as he took another sip from the his drink .

Jenna glared at him and snatched his glass.

"Give it back" Damon hissed.

"speaking of back…since you and Elena are clearly back together …What's the deal now…? You're gonna force her to stay" Alaric said in a serious tone.

"well…I…"

"Damon…you're not gonna do that….Elena is getting scholarship in NYC's one of most prestigious

university…she is on her way to become a neurosurgeon like she dreamed to be…you are not gonna make her stay here just because of your relationship" Ric stated.

Jenna nodded in agreement.

"I won't do that…I wont let our relationship stand in the way of her career…" Damon said without any hesitation.

"So…long distance thing?" Jenna asked.

"umm…No…I can't live without her…I need to be with her..." Damon said in matter of fact tone.

"I don't see…" Jenna trailed off.

"I am transferring…to a community college there…they don't have a spot in next semester …so I have to freeze my semester here…for like an year… I will get a spot in my field about next year… " he said.

"Wow…" Ric said , impressed.

"It certainly solves the issue but you will have to freeze your semester…do you get to keep your sports scholarship their?" Jenna asked.

"No…I will have to find a job or something which with dad's reference won't be a big problem…" Damon said making a face.

"Are you sure? This is a big decision" Ric said.

"I have to be with Elena…doesn't matter how hard it is…or how hard it will get…I am going to be with her…" he said as he slowly took his glass back from Jenna , making sure she didn't notice.

"You should think about this more…you might regret it later…" Jenna said, but she was clearly touched by his considerations towards her niece's education.

"I would never regret it…" he said confidently.

"Damon…it's crazy…leaving everything here like this…I mean …you have to freeze your semester for an year…you will lose your sports scholarship…you will have to find a job …not to mention your dad will be pissed by this" Ric reasoned.

"it's not confusing..it's love ,I am in love with her okay, being in love means caring about someone beyond all borders and wanting them to have everything they want no matter how much it destroys you...physically , mentally and emotionally…That's how much I love her..." he said.

"But…" Jenna interjected.

"and I am not destroying myself at all ,to be honest…I have been living off on my dad's money for ages and it's time I grow a pair and struggle for everything…for Elena , for my career and for just about everything…I need to be self dependent like Elena is…I need to grow up and work hard for everything…the struggle that I put in today will give me strength for tomorrow" he said with a smirk, remembering Elena's exact words.

"Dude…I am impressed…you've changed hell a lot" Jenna said raising her glass.

"No kidding"

"who are you and what did you to our jack ass Damon!" Ric said

"Well..Some shit got real and changed my point of view about a lot of things"

"Can I get your attention please?" Carol Lockwood said loudly.

He was beyond aroused when he reached home. He parked his car before he literally jumped out of his car. He went inside his house praying she was still here waiting for him in his room.

"Save it…she left about ten minutes ago" Stefan said.

He growled.

"Playing with your hormones again…" Stefan asked.

"Don't push it …baby bro…the last thing you need is annoy me at this particular part of the year" he growled.

"Last year, You promised me you will not pull a prank on me again, If I stop my daily Piano lessons" Stefan said as his eyes widened.

"Yeah…I did…I also promised to give you an eternity of misery when you were born" Damon said with an evil smile.

"Fine…truce" Stefan said with his hands raised up in surrender.

"Now…where is my girlfriend?" Damon asked imaptently.

"I have no idea…"

"Stefan…an eternity of misery…"

"Fine…she is at Care's place…" Stefan replied.

"Now was that so hard"

"Horny son of a bitch"

"In your fucking face , Buttwipe" Kol said as yet another ball sank in the pocket.

Damon, Klaus and Kol had been playing pool for an hour at Klaus's apartment.

"Fucking son of a bitch" Klaus heard Caroline as she barged in.

"Care Bear!" Kol greeted enthusiastically.

"Come join us" he added.

"Hey Love!" Klaus said while moving toward her.

He pecked her once before he hugged her.

"Eww…none of that…"Kol said.

"Get a room" Damon shouted in disgust.

"Rough day?" Klaus asked with a smile.

Caroline just nodded.

"What happened?"

"uhh..nothing" she said as she brushed him off.

"Care….just tell me" Klaus insisted.

"Okay…Tyler made that all up …the party planning thing..he wanted to meet me because he wanted me back" Caroline explained.

Seeing Klaus's dark expression she continued "but I let him know that I am very happy with my boyfriend and I have no intentions of leaving him in near future" Caroline said as she wrapped her arms around his neck to calm him down.

"That scrawny fucking son of whore … I will show him" Klaus said pushing her arms away.

"Nick…oh come on…I don't want any trouble okay…I didn't tell you so you could go beat my ex up …I told you because I don't want to hide anything from you… * Klaus rolls his eyes* " she said.

"I really really like you…I want to be with you" she said as she moved closer toward him.

He lips formed a thin line.

"A little help here" Caroline said as she waved toward an extremely uncomfortable Kol and Damon.

"Yeah…Calm down…! Dude…Tell you what…I will go and have a little talk with him…" Damon said with a smirk.

"Don't you dare" Caroline growled.

"Relax …Barbie …when I say talk I really mean talk" Damon replied.

"Where is Elena by the way….Wasn't she suppose to be with you?" Damon added.

"Yeah…she got a call …she left an hour ago" Caroline said.

"Oh…"

Klaus still looked upset.

"Oh comes on …babe…trust me…" Caroline said kissing Klaus.

"And that's my cue" Damon said as he rolled his eyes and left.

"Me too" Kol said following him.

"Can you drop me off at the hospital?" Kol asked.

"Do I have choice" Damon replied in a bored tone.

"So Herpes test?" Damon asked with a smirk.

"I am seeing a girl…Davina…she works at the hospital …a nurse…" Kol replied.

"A date in the hospital" Damon asked.

"Oh God…no…she took my car in the morning…her shift should be over by now…" Kol said looking at the watch.

Damon halted his car in front of the hospital.

"Thanks for the ride" Kol said as he left.

He was about to take a U turn when he spotted his girlfriend…with a man he despised. Elijah Michelson.

He gritted his teeth.

"What is she doing here….with him of all people?" he thought.

His mind whirled with most outrageous thoughts. Was she cheating on him?.But this morning everything was perfect again. Wasn't everything back to normal yet?.Wasn't she the one who said that Elijah felt wrong?.This morning she teased him like old times. He was sure everything was fine between them. Was she making a fool out of him then?

This all let's fight for our relationship was a joke then. A cruel harsh joke. Or better her revenge on him for treating her so bad in previous two years of their relationship.

Things started to make sense. Yes,Elena was forgiving. She never kept a grudge. She was extremely kind hearted. And most of all he thought she use to care about him more than anyone in the world. He was suppose to be her world but maybe nobody can be that forgiving, maybe she had enough of his non sense .

Maybe, him improving wasn't enough. Maybe she got over him. Again, this could be her revenge plan. To get him attached to her again, to get him depend on her again and BAM by the end of month, dump his ass.

This wouldn't be the first time the person most close to him left him. For goodness sake his own mother abandoned him when she found love in another man's arms.

Elena now laughed at something Elijah said .He felt like they were laughing at him, at his stupidity. Did he really thought a girl like Elena will give him a second chance after what he put her through repeatedly.

No. the other part of his brain defended her. This is Elena. Elena loves him. He is her world. She could never ever hurt him like that.

He picked up his phone and called her.

He saw her how she looked at her phone and smiled at Elijah. She cancelled his call.

"Please…pick up" his heart need reassurance that she indeed still loved him and she was just here for some other stuff...anything other than meeting the guy who was clearly head over heels for his girlfriend.

He dialed again.

Call rejected.

He dialed again.

This time he saw her walk a little further away from Elijah.

"Hey" he heard her voice.

"Where are you?" he tried to keep his voice calm.

"With Caroline "she replied. The world around him stopped and turned into a blur at the words that he listened to. He felt his heart break into million pieces.

She was lying. She never lied to him. Why was she lying?. For this guy, who she claimed felt wrong to her.

"We are still with Tyler and all…she just can't decide on a theme…" Elena added with a nervous laugh.

He didn't reply. Her laugh agonized him.

"I will come by your place in an hour okay…bye" she said as she hung up.

The numbness faded. His brain was on overdrive now. He gripped the steering wheel, restraining the argue to run the guy over with his car who was stealing his girl. She wasn't his girl anymore, was she?

Hopeless, despondent, desperate.

He saw her flip her hair and smile at the Elijah. She walked closer toward him. Was she going to kiss him or something. That would be the last thing he would want to witness. He still couldn't get over the fact that his brother kissed his girl…his ex girlfriend two months ago. How will he get over this?

Her arms went below his shoulders as she pulled him into a hug. He flinched when he saw Elijah wrap his arms around her waist.

Damon felt sick to his bones. All he could see was red. No, he wasn't jealous though he did want to rip his skin and break every bone in Elijah's body for touching his ….ex girlfriend. He was hurt.

His head, chest , back and his stomach hurt all at once. He felt like drowning and nothing made sense. His fist clenched ready to hit something or particular someone.

He felt as though there was this hole in his chest and this invisible hand was wringing his heart and ripping his lungs to shreds.

It should have been the longest five most miserable seconds of his life.

He bit his lower lip. As he saw them slowly walking toward what he assumed Elijah's car.

"No way in hell" he growled as he came out of his car slamming the door rushing toward them.

He sprinted toward them, he noticed Elena's eyes widened as she saw him.

"Damon" she murmured, shock.

He didn't even look at her as he walked over to the man, near his … "his girlfriend".

He held him at his collar and darted a deathly glance at him. "Damon" Elena squeaked. She tried to get her crazy boyfriend off her friend. Obviously he was getting the wrong idea.

"Don't. Touch. ME" he hissed.

"I told you to stay away from my girlfriend, didn't I ?" he growled at the shocked British guy.

"Damon…Damon…Leave him!" Elena said as she tried to push her boyfriend off.

"Yes..You did , I however choose otherwise" Elijah answered coolly, not even a bit intimated by his friend's enraged boyfriend, he was actually enjoying it.

"Elijah…please…Don't push it" Elena pleaded.

"You don't have some sort of claim on her Damon" Elijah added.

"Elijah …what the hell?" Elena said as she tried to interfere again.

Damon's nostrils flared.

"I will meet her whenever I feel like it…she isn't yours" Elijah said.

"Oh My God…Elijah shut up for the sake of your life…Damon leave him ….please" Elena said now

clearly afraid.

Damon felt his blood boil. Was she trying to save him…? Why was she trying to save him?

He couldn't think straight anymore and before he knew it, he launched a punch that hit Elijah right on the face.

"Oh God" Elena whimpered.

"So here how this is going to be .Until I am dead in the dirt she is mine and always will be mine and no matter how difficult ,it might get, no matter how desperately fate tries to tear us apart she will be always mine." Damon growled.

"She's my girl. Mine. Don't you even dare think you have a chance with her. She's mine and She's crazy as fuck for being with me but as long as she is staying with me, she will be mine and I fucking love her." He added in same angry tone.

"and next time if you so much as glanced at her..I will rip off your testicles and feed them to you" He threatened with a death glare.

"and you have hell lot of fucking explaining to do" Damon said he threw Elijah back and now turned around looking at the girl.

"Damon…listen to me"

"Get in the car" he said as he turned around to leave.

She didn't want to rile him up even more. She knew what he was thinking. She silently followed him, looking last time at her friend who was rubbing his jaw, she mouthed sorry to him.

The drive to his house was silent. He looked like he would snap any moment. She wanted to comfort him, she wanted to tell him that it wasn't what it looked like. But she kept silent. She was giving him a bit time to recover.

He halted the car harshly and went out without looking at her, slamming the door of the car behind him. He quickly moved inside.

She followed him.

"Damon…! Please. Listen to me." She finally said.

He didn't reply.

"I will tell you what happened…" she said as she followed him to his room.

"What happened…I WILL tell you what fucking happened…you fucking lied to me…you told me

you were with Caroline and Tyler…what you fucking didn't know was that I was right there looking at you as you shamelessly lie to me" he said walking closer toward her.

"Yes…but…you don't…"

"I was at Klaus's place when Barbie walked in…she told me you've left her an hour ago…so Elena…now you need to tell me WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?" he shouted as he got closer. She reflexively backed away.

Then some horrible thought came into his mind.

She found herself trapped between him and the wall of his room.

"Okay why does this keeps happening to me?" she thought as she noticed his furious eyes boring into hers.

"Damon…you've got it all…" she said as she tried to touch his chest, a gesture to calm him down.

He automatically grasped her hands and pulled them up against the wall.

"Wait…You aren't in love with him are you?" he asked, furry visible in his eyes, disgust hidden in his words.

She was pressed against the rough wall, her hands pinned to her either side by his. He looked enraged. His eyes were burning with wrath.

If looks could kill.

"You're getting it all wrong" she choked.

"You have feelings for him…don't you?" he hissed.

His nostrils flared. He was giving her his ultimate death stare. His lips pressed together ,restraining himself from saying something he would regret later. But her silence was driving him insane. This had to be the longest second of his life.

He searched for an answer in her eyes.

She shook her head in a No.

"Of course not…I am in love with you, Damon" she replied .

She felt his lips crash on hers. He was kissing her hungrily. She returned with equal eagerness, breaking free of his hands and wrapping her arms around him. He growled before he removed her hands and pinned them against the wall again.

For a second , he pulled away looking intensely at her before he went back to devouring her mouth, he kissed her hard , he knew her lips would be swollen when he was done with them for tonight.

His face went down kissing her jaw line and then neck giving her time to breath. He sucked hard on her neck intending to mark her ,of course. She rewarded him with a moan. "I love you" she said.

She pushed free of his hands, and grabbed a fistful of his hair bringing him back to her lips. She grazed her lips over his, their tongues fighting for dominance. She didn't knew how long they

kissed until they ran out of air.

When she opened her eyes, breathing hard . She saw his eyes boring into hers.

They have darkened. Somehow he looked opposite of relax. She knew how turned on he was. His harden dick pressed against her lower body was a proof enough. His eyes however scared her. To him she was a prey now.

He spun her around , kissing her neck as he pushed her on bed. He tore open her buttoned up blouse throwing the scraps on the floor. He was on top of her after he threw his shirt away too, Kissing her neck and chest. She grabbed a fist full of his hair , bringing his face close to hers kissing him full on lips before she moved down his neck , sucking on it, marking him. He moaned in satisfaction. She rolled on top of him while he was weak on knees enjoying the sensations she was giving him.

She sat on him, he rose up kissing her neck. She straddles him, and starts grinding her hips against turned him into animal. She closed her eyes when she felt his lips on her chest. She was his, no matter how she hurt him in the past one hour. All explanation can wait. She said she loved him. She loves him. That's it.

He tore her bra from her body before taking a nipple in mouth and sucking it hard enough to make her shriek. He did the same with the other before moving down to her skirt. He tore it away. He repeated the same action with her underwear.

"That was a new one" Elena said.

"I will buy you another one " he said as he forced a finger inside her.

"Oh God…" she shouted.

"That's just one finger…" he said with a smirk.

He added another one making her whimper. " I am gonna fuck you so hard and make you scream my name so loud that you will forget yours" he said as he started thrusting his fingers roughly inside her.

"Oh..." she moaned.

He removed his fingers from her warmth and was ready to screw her brains out when she stopped him with a devious smile.

She sits up, moving closer toward his jeans. She notices his package twitching. She slowly explores his stomach with her lips moving now toward his zipper.

Just as he thought he couldn't take it anymore she unzips him.

"No underwear…should have expected that" she said as she lightly runs her tongue along the underside of his dick from the base up to the head. He gasped when she sucks on it deeply. This made him lose his mind. The pleasure , the contentment was too much, he couldn't believe he haven't had her in about three months…that seemed impossible now. How could he even live without her.

The firmness of her grip and the pace of her sucking varies untill he was just about to explode.

"That's it…" he said as his hand move down toward her hair. She started suck even harder making him feel weak no lifeless in knees.

He had to stop her when she moved down toward his balls.

"No" he growled as he somehow lifted her up.

He rolled on top of her, covering her hands with his.

"Oh my God" she shouted when he thrust in without warning.

He didn't even give her chance to recover when he started pounding inside her over and over ,the grip he had on her arms were brutally tight, she knew she would have marks by tomorrow.

"Oh God" she shouted again as he hit her G spot.

"It's Damon" he said as he continued pounding into her.

"So fucking tight" he moaned as he nuzzled her neck.

"Oh…Oh My God" she moaned in pleasure as she closed her eyes.

"Open your eyes" he ordered.

"I need you to look at me when I screw the daylights out of you" he said .

She forced her eyes to open . Chocolate brown met crystal blue. She blushed at the intensity of his gaze.

"I love you so much" he said as he continued pounding.

"You're so fucking beautiful...and all mine" he added with a moan.

His hands roamed down to her hips, pulling her up making her shout .

He was roughly fucking her but it felt really good to her. They needed that. He needed it. He was using his anger as a motive to fuck her senseless.

At the rate he was going, it didn't take her long to cum and he followed behind his head in the crook of her neck.

When he spilled inside her. He sighed .

He rolled to her side.

She automatically scooted toward him as he adjusted his arms around her. Her hand on top of his chest , listening to his drumming heart. Just like they use to be. He possessively wrapped his other arm around her waist as she peeked at him once.

He smiled at her.

"I love you" she whispered.

"I love you too…so so much more" he replied.

They were silent now. He ran his fingers through her messy hair until they fell asleep.

He woke up with his girlfriend in his arms. She was snoring. He chuckled as he recalled the time he actually got irritated by that. Her legs intertwined with his. He ran his fingers through her tangled hair slowly.

She moaned.

"Good Morning" she murmured.

"Great Morning" he replied with a chuckle.

"Let me sleep…" she moaned as she buried her head in his chest.

"It's almost 10…and I am really hungry…not to mention we didn't eat last night" he said in a calm tone.

"You eat all the time…one missed meal won't kill you" she said still in a sleepy tone.

He chuckled as his hands went behind his head remembering the events of previous nights.

Then he remembered something.

"Why did you lie to me?" he asked as his eyes narrowed.

"What?" she said.

"You lied to me that you're with Barbie while you had been gone on a date with that moronic scum bucket" he said in a cold tone.

"I wasn't on a date…I was actually with him for a thing…in fact …oh fuck…I left it in his car" Elena shouted in the last part as she got up.

"Left what?"

"Oh No…Oh no…Oh God no…" she said as she ran frantically around his room, slipping on one of Damon's shirt and her almost torn panties which were well hidden due to his shirt that looked more like a dress on her.

Elena…" he called after her as she ran out of his room "Elena…Stefan" Damon heard another voice from downstairs calling.

"Oh that's it…you've have done it" he growled as he got wearing his Camo- boxers.

"Elijah!" he heard Elena greet him in concerned tone.

"Oh …I am sorry…I went over to your house but Jer said that you were probably at Stefan's place" Elijah answered as he eyed her.

Her boyfriend's shirt was hiding her most intimate parts, over sized shirt revealing little bit of cleavage and her beautiful long bare legs. The girl looked a mix of sex and innocence. The sight was enough to turn him on. He growled at himself in his mind. She was someone else's girl, a guy who was particularly ready to kill for her.

He looked away blushing as he still couldn't control his outrageous thoughts.

"What the fuck are you DOING here?" he heard her boyfriend growl as he came downstairs in a fast speed.

He mentally chuckled. He could see why the guy was so over protective of the innocent devil right before his eyes.

"Damon…he is just here for…"

"I don't care what he is here for…didn't I fucking told you to stay away from her…how dare you come in my house…to meet my girlfriend…you're just begging for trouble " Damon spat as he moved forward.

At least now the guy knew that Damon and Elena were back together . Her in his shirt was proof enough of the activity they had been involved in last night.

Damon had a claim on her now. She was his.

"I am here for this…this is Elena's joining letter..." Elijah said showing a brown envelope.

Steamy scenes!

Fights!

A bit of angst…

How was it so far?

We have two chapters left now before we wrap up!

Thankyou so much for reading !

Please Please Please Review!

The Jealous Ex Boyfriend

Chapter 17

"Acceptance letter…for what?" Damon asked puzzled.

"Mystic Falls community college …Literature "Elijah answered.

"What?"

"You're staying?" Damon added.

"Yup…and to think I thought she was smart…you win Damon Salvatore…of course on the expense of killing her career." Elijah added bitterly.

"You don't need to do that for me Elena…I have got this all planned out…you want to become a neurosurgeon…and I totally support you…I was thinking of…" he was cut off by Elena.

"But this is the only way I get to be with you" she replied as she bit her lip.

"Damon…I want to stay here…well not just because of you. I was always more interested in literature then Neurosurgery…"

"Elena…stop it…You're not doing this…we all know how much you loved that subject…heck I even bought you books related to that for Christmas…" he replied, annoyed.

"Damon….Listen to me ..Will you?" Elena said , walking over to him.

"Do you remember the first time…I told you I liked neurosurgery…" Elena asked.

She could see pain flash through his face.

"Yeah..and I laughed at you and told you that was impossible and that how will you perform the surgery if you can't stand even the smell of blood..." he said , not looking in her eyes, feeling guilty for his behavior.

"But I changed Elena…I know you can do this I support you" he said in a final tone.

Elena smiled.

"Damon…You were right...I can't perform a surgery…I couldn't even go through dissection of a lab frog because one that is an animal and it's total cruel…and secondly you were right…the sight of blood does make me feel sick"

"I was always interested in this subject theoretically and I could write about it…make it interesting and all…hence I decided to peruse a career in Science writing…" Elena concluded.

"Elena...you're just saying that so I wouldn't feel guilty…"Damon said , still trying to absorb whatever information he received.

"Elijah had been helping me with this…admission and giving me overview of this field…apparently he have couple of friends who already are involve in this field"

"Oh…" his lips formed an O .

"So this means…you weren't on a date with him…you weren't cheating me" he said as he exhaled recalling events of last night.

"Yes because a hospital is a perfect spot for a date" Elijah said as his mouth formed a hard line.

"Of course not Damon…I would never do that to you…I love you" she said as she kissed him .

Elijah looked away.

Damon did a mental victory dance.

"So…this means you're staying" he said with a slight chuckle.

"Yes" Elena answered.

"Elena…" Damon sighed. As he wrapped his arms around her pulling her close.

"umm…not now" Elena said with a blush as she pushed him away looking back at her friend who was ignoring their romance.

"I can't thank you enough …El…you have been a great friend to me…" she said with a warm smile.

"and I'm really really sorry about yesterday" she added as she spotted his swollen lower lip.

"It's okay Elena…I am just gonna go pack my stuff now…because I guess my work here is done…" Elijah stated , in a quite cold tone , glaring at Damon.

Elena just nodded and added " I am sorry for yesterday…It was all a misunderstanding"

She nudged Damon.

"Yeah…about that…I…I do stuff sometimes…I shouldn't "

"It's his way of saying he is really sorry" Elena interjected.

"umm…yeah sure …apology accepted" he said as he left.

"Wow…that was …"

"weird" Elena completed his sentence.

"So you aren't going…" Damon said looking at her with a smile.

"Yes…I am not…"Elena answered looking intently at him.

"I am sorry for everything Elena…I promise…I will change …I will be a better person for you" he promised kissing her knuckles.

"I don't need you to change …I like you just the way you are" she said kissing him full on lips.

He carried her to his bed and dropped her gently .

"I love you so much, Elena" he whispered in her ear before he hovered over her.

"I love you too"

"Good…then can you do me a favor?" he asked as he rolled off her and sat next to her. She rose up looking at him suspiciously.

"What?"

"Don't stay here…you should take the program offered by NY University" he said as he made her sit on his lap.

"What are you saying?"

"Elena…"

"Damon…then I will have to move out of Mystic Falls…long distance relationship..Do you really want to go through that?" Elena asked narrowing her eyes.

"Oh God No…I need to be with you" he said with a smile.

"I don't get it…how will.." she was cut off by him.

"I am going with you…"

"but"

"I am doing my paper work to transfer to a community college in NYC…I have already submitted my application two days ago…I might have to freeze my semester for an year but that's actually a good thing because I will need get a job to pay tuition since I can't keep my sports scholarship" he explained.

Her jaw dropped.

"What?"

"Yeah…that is my plan for us…Elena…you staying here means you will have to give up your

dream to become a surgeon and I don't want to be the guy who clings on to you, I don't want to destroy your future.I don't want you to sacrifice so much for me…It would kill me if one day you start resenting me because I made you stay and deprived you of a such a big opportunity…"

"I will never regret you, Damon…" she said cupping his face.

"I know…but I want to be the guy who supports and encourages his girl's dreams, goals and success in every little way I can" he replied pecking her lips once.

"You do realize it will be very difficult right?" Elena asked.

"I know…but you're worth it" he said.

"And you know what they say nothing worth having comes easy" he added with a smirk.

"What if …what if after a while you regret it…?" Elena asked in a doubtful tone.

Elena…these three months away from you had been horrible…I regretted breaking up with you the next minute…I was mad…totally crazy…and it's all your fault…"he said looking at her.

She looked confused.

"You were my balance …Lena…you were the one who took my bullshit…you were the one who actually cared about me…you stuck around me when everyone told you to leave…You were the one who loved me insanely even when I gave you every reason not to…you gave me so much love …made me so happy and supported me so much that I forgot how life was without you" he said sadly.

"Things started to fall apart Lena…without your smiles that use to magically disappear all my worries…without your constant pep talk before my big games … without your annoying rambling I became lonely…I missed coming back to home and you surprising me with your Elena Gilbert Special Chicken Sandwiches, I missed how you smell like rain…I missed how you use to sit with me and listen to whatever non sense I talked about …I missed you Elena…at one point I felt physical pain being away from you and trust me…I was one day away from coming to you, dropping on my knees and would have begged you until you took me back" he said as he nuzzled her neck.

"I missed you too…to say that I miss you is an understatement…I missed your voice, I missed your stupid smirk…I missed you so much" she said as she planted feathery kisses on his face.

He smiled closing his eyes.

"If you just give me this one more chance I will prove it to you to that I will be the best decision you ever made" he said looking at her intently.

"You ARE the best decision of my life…Damon mistakes happen…I don't care what you did …how bad you did it…mistakes happen…It's human nature..."she said kissing him full on lips.

"Good because …losing you was the worst feeling in the world …I am never ever going to lose you again" he said as he pressed his lips against hers again.

"you know…the night when Stefan got sick and you were taking care of him…" he said as he pulled away looking in her eyes.

"Aha…the night you had stomach flu?" she asked.

"No…I was just bit cold plus the booze did the vomiting part …I was only pretending to be sick to get your attention...I know that seems desperate now…" he added as he saw her chuckle.

"Why would you do that?" she asked.

"I thought you would be as miserable without me as I was without you but you looked okay. You looked like you were already over me…and then this crazy thoughts keep coming to my mind that you will find someone else…and you will be happy with him…and the thought of you with someone else…it killed me Elena…" he ended looking at her sadly.

She pressed her lips to his forehead, lightly kissing him.

"I was miserable .I just pretended to be strong. It's always gonna be you for me…you know that…I love you…" she said as she cupped his face again, he pressed one of her palm with his hand and brought her hand to his lips kissing it.

"Thank you for staying with me even if you had every reason to leave…Thank you for making life so beautiful for me just by your mere existence …I love you so much Elena" he whispered.

"So..NYC then?" Elena said as she bit her lower lip.

"Yes…" he said.

She pressed her lips against his, straddling his lap. They parted for awhile as he slipped his shirt off her and ripping away the remains of her already torn underwear before he removed his boxers.

She rose onto her knees, still straddling his lap while he guided her hips onto his length, both groaning at the feeling. He gripped her hips tightly as she rode him. He flipped them over. Laying her on the bed as he hovered over her while he continued thrusting deeply. She moaned loudly. He laced his fingers with hers and pinned her hands on top of her while she sucked on his neck, marking him.

"Oh…fuck…so fucking tight" he moaned as her walls tightened around him.

"I love you" she moaned in his ear.

"I love you too…" he moaned back as he thrusted deeper making her shout.

"Oh…Oh…" she moaned as her head moved to a side.

He let go of her one hand, his other hand went down to her clit, rubbing it.

"Say it" he growled.

"What?"

"That you're mine…" he ordered.

"I am yours…" she said with a moan as he hit a spot deeper.

"Oh…God…I am gonna…"

She shouted as she came , crying his name and he followed.

He crashed on top of her.

"You're crushing me…" she whispered in his ear after a while.

"Oh…sorry" he said before he rolled to her side.

She instantly snuggled with him, her head resting on his chest.

Her stomach growled.

"Breakfast….that's what I forgot" he said with a chuckle.

"if she isn't at your place…and if she wasn't with me last night and she couldn't be with Care since Care was with Klaus last night then she is probably with Damon right now.." She heard Stefan.

"Oh my Gosh" Elena rolled off her boyfriend.

She found herself behind the couch, completely naked and in a very indecent position with her boyfriend.

"How did we even get here? Weren't we having breakfast?" he asked in a whisper.

"See…that's what happens when we don't have sex for a long while…" he added.

"Shut up!" she hissed at Damon.

"Where is my shirt?" she asked.

"Probably in kitchen" he replied , looking around for his clothes.

"DAMON…ELENA" Stefan called them as he searched for them.

"ELENA!" Jeremy also started helping Stefan.

"Oh…Fuck…no!" Elena gasped.

"Tell them to get out of here" Elena ordered him.

"Why should I do that…I am just as naked as you are" he replied.

"Okay fine…Stop pouting" he added as he got up a little.

"Maybe they are in kitchen…" Jeremy suggested Stefan.

"Oh…God…No" Stefan said as his eyes widened.

"Don't come over here" he heard Damon from the kitchen side.

"I think they are in the lounge" Jeremy said looking at Stefan.

"I am warning you … we aren't decent…what you see might scar you for life …" Damon added.

"Oh…not this again" Jeremy said as he made a face.

"We had a discussion about this an year ago…I have a paper work, Damon ,that proves that you agreed, there won't be any more kitchen sex in our kitchen…" Stefan shouted in annoyance.

"Just get out of here" he heard Elena answer.

"Do me a favor…burn the couch …I don't need it anymore…"Stefan added as he left.

"That was close…" she said looking at him.

"Ready for round 3 !" he said with a grin.

"As much as makeup sex is amazing …I think I'll pass...I need to go home…" she said pecking him once as she got up.

"You ruined my shirt, my underwear and my bra…What the hell am I suppose to wear now?" she said glaring at him.

"I have your stuff" he said.

"You didn't throw my stuff out" she asked looking at him.

He handed her his shirt. She slid it on.

"Of course .I didn't…although…your best friend took all your stuff from my room…so all your stuff is now in his closet" he said as he guided her to his brother's room.

"Should be on the top one" he said.

"Why did he do that?" she asked him.

"Well…I …I went out with some girl after a week of our breakup" he said trying not to look into her eyes.

She was hurt. She remembered her state at that time.

"But …It turned out to be terrible…she was a chatterbox and I wasn't interested…I've had you…I know how love feels like …anything less was not good enough…I was miserable and you didn't call me and I just wanted to show everyone that I am capable of moving on…" he rambled in anxiety.

She cut him with a peck on his lips. He relaxed.

"I am not gonna be mad…Relax " she said as she wrapped her arms around his neck.

"sure…I am not super happy about this…but It's okay" she said.

"How can you be so …" he trailed off.

"Warm, amazing , loving…yeah I know" she said with a proud smirk.

He chuckled , leaning for another kiss.

"No…according to Agreement with Stefan we can't kiss in Stefan's room..." she said pushing him slightly.

"Yeah..he didn't ban sex" Damon pointed out.

"No…Damon…he promised if I ever do that…I will be dead to him…" she said as she searched for a good top.

She finally found a pair of her old skinny jeans and her red cold-shoulder printed top.

"Shower?" he offered.

"No…I gotta go home…I'll come over at night" she said as she slid on her jeans and shirt.

"You should really wear something" she said as she pecked him once.

"I love you" he said as she walked out of the room.

"I love you too" she said as she looked back , winking at him once before leaving.

"I often wonder what she saw in him.

Sure, he was good looking , funny, and smart. But so was I! I had every aspect he had with even more appeal."

He was handsome, but I am way good looking too

He is hard-working but I am successful!

He slaves away at all day just to improve himself the smallest bit. All I had to do was snap my fingers, and I had anything I wanted! Anything what was... except one, beautiful girl Elena Gilbert" Elijah said in a sad tone.

"I am so much better than Damon in every way. I forced myself to be better than him. I had to be...

Still she never gave me a second glance." He added.

Klaus looked at his brother.

"You don't understand , El…her best friend, Stefan had been in love with her this all time and she never saw …how will she ever see you..you just came in the picture three months ago..." Klaus said.

"Is she truly that in love with him? So in love she couldn't see something better when he jump right in front of her beautiful face?" Elijah asked.

"I think…you know that better than I do…" Klaus replied.

"I'm handsome and successful! More so than he'll ever be, so why? Why do I wish I was him?" Elijah asked himself.

"Because he has her love...The one thing you really wanted, but can't get" Klaus answered without hesitation.

"It has always been him for her. He is all she see…In a room full of people,her eyes stays on him…she likes to make him happy…they had been together for five long years…and trust me ..he gave her every reason to leave him…Heck! even I left him in his stoner phase…but she stayed by his side…I knew they would work everything out…" Klaus said.

Elena was holding Damon's arm as they entered Bowling Arena. They were laughing together now. The beautiful sound of her laughter filled his ears, and it made him want to cry. How many times had he, Elijah wanted to make her laugh like that? But no, it seems only Damon has the power to make her that happy...

"I will beat your ass this time" Damon said in a fake annoyed tone.

"That's what you said last time, and the time before that, and the time before that and the time

before that…" Elena said with a giggle.

"I will take my revenge in the bedroom then…I will make you scream so hard…" he shut his mouth when Elena nudged him playfully.

"Klaus! Elijah!" Elena said as she walked over to them, her boyfriend following her.

"Hey" she said as greeted them.

"I didn't know you were going to be here…Isn't it your duty time?" Elena said looking at Elijah.

Elijah noticed Damon move forward, wrapping arms around her protectively.

"Well…yeah…College only required two weeks of volunteer work to pass in this semester…I did three…I think that's more than enough" Elijah said in somewhat cold tone.

"So..You're going back tomorrow?" Elena asked.

"Yes…"

"Good…I will see you in college in September then" Elena said as she smiled widely.

"You're going?" Elijah asked , his one eye raised.

"Yes…actually we are going…Damon is gonna come with me…" she said looking at her boyfriend once.

"but what about his college here?" Elijah asked, shocked.

"I am transferring …this way we both get to have what we want…" Damon answered Elijah.

"and the credit of this idea goes to me" Stefan said , joining their group.

"I knew it…he couldn't come up with something that smart" Klaus added with a smirk.

"How was your shopping trip with your second best friend ? Where is Care, By the way?" Klaus asked Stefan.

"Oh…shopping was terrible as usual…I dropped her off to some Saloon and all her stuff is in your car" Stefan said as he threw Klaus's key at him which Klaus caught.

"Lena…cute blonde over there…introduce me to her" Stefan said as he held her wrist and dragged her away with him.

"Care texted me to pick her up…I need to go…I'll be back in awhile" Klaus said as he looked over to his phone and left.

"Wow…this is awkward…" Damon said with a chuckle.

"I know what you're doing …you are just saying all the things that she wants to hear…you just can't see her happy with someone else … can you?" Elijah said in a cold tone.

"You know in a few days or a few months…you will drop this charade again. You will break her heart again. This relationship will fall part one day…and you know…girls like Elena Gilbert don't end up with guys like you…she will want to settle down at some point…you on the other hand are not the type of guy who would ever be able to give her that commitment" Elijah finished with a smirk.

"I love her…I love her more than anything in the word.. and believe me I am not someone who says that to everyone .I have been afraid of losing her when she wasn't mine to begin with. I was this guy who adored his baby bro's bestfriend...I use to follow her around. Threaten every guy who would even as much as look at her..We dated , we fell in love, we were together..." Damon stopped ,looking at the cold eyes of his opponent.

"I have been so secure in our relationship that I didn't even think there could be a possibility of losing her. She always loved ... actually she loves me so much...Her whole world revolved around me...She knew what I liked..what I didn't liked...she made me feel special...like even after everything I put her through because I knew she will always take me back" he added.

"Is that's why you keep playing her…because you know she is stupid enough to take you back?" Elijah asked harshly.

"Damon Salvatore, She will leave you one day…when she realizes how stupid she had been. You aren't the right man for her…" Elijah added without getting even a bit intimated by Damon's sudden red face.

"You are so right…I was this jerk… I wanted to jump in the field...play ...go on dates with different girls..." he replied.

"See…Damon , that's the type of guy you are…you want to be free…you don't want commitment..so why are you wasting our time…it's better if you end things…" Elijah added. He really wanted that girl.

I know what you're trying to do ... I maybe impulsive , crazy and total dick but I am a quick learner…I learn from my mistakes… the day she told me she couldn't do this anymore and that she was tired of going back and forth...when she left me I felt unwanted, worthless and dead." He stopped for a moment, as he remembered his thoughts that night. Suicidal thoughts.

"But she is love...she is the definition of love ...all I had to do was reach out a little bit...and she was mine again...she never stopped loving me...she believes I am the right guy for her ...and this time I would never let her go "He finished in a final tone.

"and I know I will go crazy if she ever left me but she won't...that's what makes her extra

special...she didn't give up on me and I would never give up on her...Actually, crazy doesn't even come close to how I would feel! I know I would be broken, lost, empty, hollow, and dead inside at best without her so dude back the fuck off…that girl right there is mine" he added.

"Well..That was emotional speech but I know you won't last that long…" Elijah said as he looked away.

"She is a lesbian" Elena giggled as she came back. "She didn't look like a lesbian" Stefan added in an annoyed tone as he followed.

"Damon…no…Peanuts…you're allergic" she said as she slapped her boyfriend's hand away and moved the basket away from him.

"How can you keep forgetting this stuff?" Stefan added .

"I don't know what he will do without me" Elena said as she

"Probably die" Damon whispered , nuzzling her neck.

"Not here…" she pushed him slightly with a chuckle.

"What about the bowling?" she asked.

"Fine…if you win I get to be on top for a week?" he said as he dragged her away.

"What? No fair!" Elena replied as she went with him.

"You look miserable.." Stefan commented as Elijah took a sip from his drink.

"I could say the same about you…tell me …how do you not get tortured seeing the love of your life with your brother?" Elijah questioned harshly.

"Excuse me" Stefan answered looking alarmed.

"Drop the act…the way you look at her is quite different then the way you look at your other best friend…Caroline. You will hang moon and stars for Elena…tell me how does it feel to never get noticed. How does it feel when you see her in your brother's arms?" Elijah added in a sharp tone.

"You're right…I love Elena .And ,I am in love with her too…but I think I deluded myself to think that way…see the way Elena loves Damon…"

"Stop it..I've heard it from two other guys before you…I get it she loves Damon…" Elijah said.

"Yeah…she loves him and I wanted that…I wanted someone to love me just like she loves him…and maybe some part of me is in love with her but I am in love with our friendship more…and as for the part that she is with Damon…" Stefan paused.

"That doesn't bother me at all…" he added.

"Quit it…I can see right through you…I can see how much it kills you…" Elijah said.

"It doesn't.I am glad …she is with him.I am glad my brother is the only one she see in this place

full of attractive men.I'm happy for them. This means I get to keep her too, I get to keep the love of my life in form of my best friend, my sister and my sister in law possibly…so it doesn't suck..Elena had always been family but with her being with Damon ,it makes her officially family…so back off buddy not that I think she will ever listen to you" Stefan said with a slight smirk.

"You amaze me…" Elijah was speechless.

"You lost…haha" Damon mocked Elena.

"But I use to win every time" Elena said as she ran her hands through her hair.

"He use to let you win , Lena…see I told you" Stefan shouted as he rushed to them ignoring a sulking Elijah.

Damon laughs loudly when Elena does something goofy. She's showing off for the man she loves.

Elijah smiled sadly looking at them.

He went back to a time not so far night of their one and only date.

"Can we not talk about Damon anymore?" she muttered , annoyed.

"I am just telling you … he is very immature. I mean okay by luck he somehow got accepted at Mystic Falls community college but I doubt he will ever graduate" Elijah commented.

"El…please..Can we talk about something else" Elena insisted.

"Okay…I am sorry. Anyway… I was planning to take you to the opening of my friend's art gallery for our next date" Elijah said , smiling.

"That would be nice…I'll let you know if I'm free" Elena replied with a warm smile.

"It's next week, Friday" he said as he rose up.

"Oh…I can't . I have to go to community centre. There is this charity for disabled animals…I volunteered. So I can't make it" she said as she walked with him toward parking.

"SO…ditch it" Elijah said as he opened the door of his car for her. She sat. He mimicked her action.

"I can't do that…" Elena replied looking at him now as he drove slower toward her home.

"Oh come-on! Elena …it's not like these events actually help…it's just a way to get money out of rich people pockets." Elijah said with a chuckle.

"These events ACTUALLY help…We work our butt out to collect donations. We do help animals" Elena replied. She felt indignant. Damon never said anything against her volunteer work .Sure, he didn't join her but he always supported her ideas. He always respected her volunteer work. He genuinely used to get interested in her ideas.

He used to listen to her. Asked her questions about why she choose this cause to support. If she somehow messed up something he would always be their helping her .Like the time when a sick kitten died in her arms. He had been their listening to her all day , when she cried her eyes out .Her tears ruined his shirt but he didn't say a single word about how childish she had been acting.

Or the time when she left Team meat and joined Stefan's Team Vegetarian. He didn't exactly go vegan but he gave up eating meat pizza because he knew how much she use to love it. He respected her views and he didn't want to make it more difficult for her.

"Sure" Elijah replied with a chuckle snapping her out of her thoughts.

Elijah stopped the car in front of her house.

"I had a nice time…I hope we can do this again Elena…I really like you…I genuinely think this could go somewhere" Elijah said as he held her hand. He saw Elena nervously smile.

He leaned in to kiss her. Elena was shocked, she didn't know what to do. She immediately moved her face to side so instead of her lips, Elijah's lips landed on her cheek.

"Is everything ok?" he asked after he kissed her lightly on cheek.

"I don't…I just don't think I'm ready for this…" Elena replied nervously.

"Elena…how many times do I have to tell you…you have to let go of that good for nothing ex of yours…It's better to end something and start new then imprison yourself in hoping for the impossible" Elijah said as he pressed her hand making Elena even more uncomfortable.

"You have to get him out of your head…" Elijah added.

"See you later, Goodnight" Elena said with a sigh as she left.

She didn't even giggle once with him the way she was giggling now. She laughs again, and Elijah felt his heart breaks a little more.

The way she looked at Damon now made him realize that she's always loved him, and he was just too blind to see. No, He didn't want to see. It was right under his nose and he just pushed it away.

How could he even think he could replace Damon Salvatore in her life ? How could he even think he could take his place in her heart, when her heart had always belonged to that guy? He wanted to remove Damon from her mind and thoughts. But he couldn't because Damon was always meant to be there.

She squeals when he lifts her off , bridal style and kisses her with so much passion and love, Elijah felt his heart smash completely.

Yes, He was right. She wasn't like Katherine. Because, Katherine didn't stay loyal to him. She walked out the minute ,problems started in their relationship. She found love in some other man's arms. However, Elena stayed loyal to her man she stayed by him even when he gave her every reason not to.

She could have taken the easy way with Elijah. Elijah could have kept her happy enough but she wanted to be with her man all along. And now her man was as much as devoted to her as she was devoted to him. Elijah had to face it, nothing would ever happen between him and Elena.

For goodness sake, if she couldn't see how her best friend had loved her all his life, then how the hell will he ever make her notice himself, When all she could see was her boyfriend. It was like she was magically compelled to him. He saw her wrap her arms around his neck, whispering something in his ear. They were meant to be together . They were opposites but didn't opposites balance the world. He knew he had to let her go.

"I am staying with Care and Stef today…It's our sleepover night." Elena said as he drove her to her blonde friend's house.

"Aren't you three, too old for sleepovers" he said, annoyed.

"I promise I will stay over with you tomorrow" she said as she rubbed his arm.

"Promise me that you will spend whole day plus night with me?" he said.

"I promise" she said with a smile.

"Fine…" he said as the car stopped in front of Caroline's house.

He cupped her face and kissed her intently. She replied with as much force.

"I love you" she said as she pulled away.

"I love you too" he replied still cupping her face.

"Get out of here before I change my mind and take you with me" he said with a smirk.

"Ok…Drive Safe. Goodnight. Love you" she said as she got out.

"I love you too so so much"he replied.

She laughed as she made her way to her best friend's door turning around waving at him one last time .

"Yes…so the plan "Devil gets trapped in his own trap" initiates" she heard Klaus say.

Six hours ago

"This is a disaster" Jeremy shouted.

"Calm down…I'll tell Damon to let you off the hook…he will listen to me" Elena said as she stood in front of her clearly panicked brother.

"No…Elena…he is the devil himself…Klaus let it slip that I am the target of his sick and twisted prank this year on April fool … you know what he does to his victims…I am so screwed"

"Calm down…we will think of something" Stefan said as he patted Jeremy's back.

"Oh! No! No! No!...That's what you told Matt but do you remember him running around the town begging for water…and it's gonna be a lot worst on me …because first of all Elena pissed him off a lot and secondly I smoked in his car and he knows that…" Jeremy said.

"What if…what if …this time we play a prank on him … a big twisted and mean prank?" Caroline suggested.

"Think about it…we had all been his victims…he got Tyler to change my shampoo with hair removing cream, he made Klaus chase Stefan down the street dressed as manic with chainsaw (Stefan shivers), he scared Bonnie to death when he pretended he accidently threw her dog in washing machine…he paid Mason to pretend to sleep with Stefan ( Stefan growls).It's time we set a trap for the devil himself" Caroline completed her speech dramatically.

"Oh .No! No! No!" Elena said

30 minutes later

"Are you insane…he will flip out…no way…We can't do that" Elena pleaded.

"But… it's gonna be fun…Elena you are his weakest point right now…he wants to be with you so badly that the thought of losing you kills him…I say we scare the fuck out of him…I say we abuse his weakness…" Caroline shouted.

"I agree…this might be fun" Stefan said with a snort.

"Just imagine… he wakes up and finds himself with a total stranger woman and then you walk in on the fake cheating scene…Elena…It will scare the hell out of him…he might even cry…and We will record that…solid gold…making the devil cry …Oh I have always wanted that…" Caroline said with a evil smile.

"You're scaring me Care" Elena said making a face.

"He almost got me arrested for the alcohol he put in the backseat of my car without my knowledge …I got grounded for six months. That might be a prank for him but I missed Betty Copper's party because of him. Please Elena …Please do this for me" Caroline pleaded.

Stefan looked at Elena.

"Do it" he said.

"Jer?" Caroline looked at Jeremy.

"Well…he will never forget this though. And if he finds out I was part of this he will track me down and kill me but then again this is solid gold…sure…what the heck? People on YouTube do cheating pranks all the time".

Present time

I can't believe I slipped a roofie in my boyfriend's drink" Elena said. "He will be home before it starts it's effects" Caroline said.

"I can't believe I am betraying my best friend again…" Klaus added. "No!..No!…no!…No!" Caroline growled at Klaus who backed off.

"You're not getting cold feet about this, are you?" Caroline growled at a nervous Stefan.

"No…it's just…In some sick twisted way I am enjoying it but my conscience is killing me" Stefan replied.

"Turn it off" Klaus said.

"Excuse me" Stefan said.

"Turn your damn conscience off" Klaus shouted.

"Turn it off" He shouted again.

Stefan gulped. "Okay…it's off now"

"Good work baby" Caroline said kissing Klaus once.

After an hour, Caroline's phone buzzed.

"Hello…he is out…yes…he's out…Ok we are on our way Jeremy..Just get him undressed …oh sorry wrong Gilbert…I will make your sister do that" Caroline said in a cheerful tone talking to Jeremy on phone. She hung up after a while.

"Good news guys…he is knocked out" Caroline said.

Elena whimpered.

"Come on…we gotta be there to set everything up for tomorrow's scene" Caroline said supporting the extremely worried brunette.

"He is undressed" Elena announced as she came out of her boyfriend's room.

"He will kill each and every one of us" Stefan said in a panic tone.

"Shut up…Don't scare us" Caroline said as she brushed him off.

"At least he will know what it felt when he did that to me…to this date I don't know what actually happened that night" Stefan said in a lost tone.

"Nothing happened…you passed out and we threw you naked in bed with Mason…we made it

look like you had sex with him…You're expressions the next day were priceless" Klaus said with a snort.

"Ok…Who is going to be the stranger girl he supposedly cheated on me with?" Elena asked uncomfortably.

"Rebecca" Caroline answered.

"What the fuck…Care…I told you not to bring my sister into this" Klaus said , shocked.

"Oh! She offered herself…she wants to take revenge for whatever Damon did to torment poor Matt" Caroline said.

"Here I am" Rebecca said as she came inside the boarding house.

"Don't…Try to umm…touch him and stuff and hide your umm intimate parts…" Elena said uncomfortably.

"Don't worry Elena…he isn't my type" Rebecca said with a cold laugh.

"Just..You know…you get it right?" Elena said nervously.

"I do…message received.."

Damon stretched his arms as he woke up.

"Ouch" he rubbed his forehead with his fingers. "Hangover" he said.

"How do I have a hangover…I just had one drink" he asked himself.

He moved his leg a bit to stretch. His leg touched someone's back.

"What the …" he trailed off as he noticed long blonde hairs spread on his bed.

He literally jumped out of the bed.

"Oh fuck!" he gasped.

"But…how did…Oh Fuck no…Oh fuck no" he whispered to himself. He noticed a trail of clothes from his bedroom door to his bed. He noticed empty condom packet on his drawer.

"What the hell?" he gasped.

But how is this possible? How can he have a hangover when he didn't even drink much? The last thing he remembered was dropping off Elena at Caroline's place.

"Oh shit! Elena" he nearly shouted.

He still had problem moving his aching limbs probably from the shock. "No…No..No.. this can't happen" he whispered to himself as he ran his fingers through his hair.

He grabbed his pants and slid them on hurriedly. He wasn't thinking straight now. Elena will leave him now. She will hate him now. He can't lose her. This was all he could think about for now.

"Get up!" he growled at the girl.

His jaw dropped when he saw Rebecca's face as she removed sheets from her face.

"Rebecca!" he asked, shocked.

"Morning" she moaned softly.

"What the fuck are you doing here? How the fuck did you…Will you please cover yourself up" he growled.

"You picked me up from the grill…Remember. I told you to drop me at my place. But then we started talking and then…you know the rest" she said in a seductive tone.

"No..I didn't …" he choked.

"No..I can't…I can't cheat on Elena…I didn't …She will leave me "he choked again.

"but you told me you broke up with Elena…that's why…I agreed to…" Rebecca said in a fake sad tone.

"Oh No…Oh God No…Please let it be a nightmare…" he said as he paced one time.

"Please! Please! Tell me I didn't do anything?" he said looking at her, his desperate eyes pleading.

" but we did do …" Rebecca said as she got out of the bed.

"No!No! No! You don't understand..she will leave me…I can't live without her…" he said as he threw his lamp on the glass of the dresser.

Rebecca gasped. Rebecca saw him grab a fistful of his hair in utter frustration.

"DAMON!" Damon heard Elena's voice from downstairs.

"Is everything okay?" he heard her voice now louder.

"Oh! Crap…Fuck…You need to get out of here" he said pushing Rebecca to the window.

"Are you kidding me? No" she said as she pushed him slightly.

"What's going on?" he heard Elena's voice from the door. He turned around. She had a shocked expression on her face.

"Elena…" he gasped.

He saw her look at him with those hurt doe eyes. "What is she doing here?" Elena said in a very low tone.

"Elena…I swear I didn't do anything…" he said as he rushed to her.

He tried to hold her by her arms but she brushed his hands off.

"Don't touch me" she shrieked, as realization dawned on her face.

"Let me explain honey…please.." he said as he held her arms , tightly so she wouldn't leave. He needed her to understand this weird situation. But he didn't know how to explain.

Everything in the room was an evidence to the activity he must have been involved the night before.

"How can you do this to me?" she whispered not looking in his eyes.

"I don't know …Elena…I don't remember anything. The last thing I remember is dropping you off at Care's place…I swear I don't remember how she got here. I didn't do anything deliberately. I love you so much" he said as he tried to cup her face.

She pushed his hands away.

"No..You don't love me…If you did , you wouldn't have cheated on me …I hate you" she said as she tried to cry. Failing, she just hid her face in her hands. She turned around , rubbing tear stick ( fake tear maker) under her eyes.

"Elena…Please..Please…look at me" he begged as he tried to come in front of her. She turned again, pretending to sob just like Caroline taught her the night before.

Damon felt dread ripping apart his skin. He felt his veins tangled at the thought of her leaving him.

She wasn't even looking at him. He felt empty and hopeless.

He looked at an embarrassed Rebecca at the end of the room ,biting her lips looking down.

"Everyone was right…you're a bad person Damon I could go back to the day I met you and I would just walk away …I wish I never talked to you…It would have saved me so much pain" she said as she looked at him. Her every word drove knife through his heart.

Her face was filled with tears but she was hardly sobbing. Maybe, he hurt so much she couldn't even cry properly now.

"I don't want to be with you anymore…I am leaving you for good" she shouted at him before she ran out of his room hiding her face in her hands

He was stunned. He couldn't move for a second.

"No!..No!..Elena!..No!…you can't breakup with me…you …you promised me you will never leave me…Elena…I swear I didn't do anything" he said as he followed her.

"Elena…please..Wait" he said as he grabbed her wrist once he reached downstairs.

"Don't touch me" she hissed as she pushed him away from her.

She saw the clear look of dread in his eyes. She saw how scared he was of losing her.

"Elena…I love you so much…I don't know how it all happened.I honestly don't remember anything…Elena I can't lose you. You're everything I want. You're everything I need. I can't live without you Elena..Please don't break up with me. I really don't remember anything" he said as he cupped her moved her toward the wall, caging her with his body so she wouldn't run away. His eyes now glistening.

He saw her hands move up, surprisingly cupping his face."You have been officially pranked…Happy April's Fool Day , Satan" she murmured.

He froze.

He heard a series of laughter from behind him. He slowly turned around and found Stefan, Klaus , Caroline, Jeremy and Rebecca laughing hysterically. He slowly moved back looking at Elena who was also giggling.

"Did you see the look on his face when he woke up?" he heard Stefan say to Jeremy.

"Eww..did you really think I will ever sleep with you?" Rebecca questioned as she laughed.

Klaus was rolling on the floor laughing his ass off. Jeremy was too grinning widely.

So, this had all been a cruel joke. They made him think he lost the love of his life just when he was about to start a new chapter of his life with her. They made him think he cheated on Elena. They

made him think Elena hated him , even for a minute.

"So..So …this had been a prank all along?" he asked still confused as he looked at his giggling girlfriend.

She nodded.

His knuckles tightened. This wasn't a joke. He nearly considered suicide. He thought he lost his girlfriend, the love his life forever. Was this some sort of joke to them, to play with his emotions like that?

"Damon!" he heard Elena say.

He looked at her. Her doe eyes were filled with concern and love not hatred. She still loved him.

He didn't lose her. He noticed the room was silent now.

"Are you okay?...I am sorry we …" she trailed off when he hugged her tightly.

"Shh…he is still in shock…let's just get out of here before he grabs his baseball bat and beat us all to death" Damon heard Stefan whisper to his friends.

He will deal with them later. Right now, he was just going to appreciate the fact that this had been all a bad joke and the love of his life was still with him. She still loved him.

Damon didn't say a single word , when he carried her back to his room. He saw his friends/enemies/victims for life leave silently.

"Damon…I'm sorry. We took it too far" she said in her most apologetic tone.

He didn't reply as he jumped on to the bed with her and scoped her in his arms, inhaling her scent.

He hovered on top of her one second, looking directly in her eyes.

"I am so sorry…" she apologized again.

"They made me do it…It was all Care's and Stefan's idea…I didn't want to be a part of it but they convinced me. They made me slip Roofie in your drink. I swear, I didn't want to do this..I am really sorry Damon…" she was cut of when his lips crashed on hers.

Damon felt a deep warmth spread through his body, all the aches and pains of a moment ago dissolved by her perfect soft lips. She kissed him back immediately. His mouth was needy, his hands were restless, moving on needed everything right now her heat, her scent, her generosity and kindness, her devastating beauty. He realized he didn't just love her, she owned him. He could do anything for her.

He let her breath for a moment, his lips moving to other available skin. Urgently his mouth roved across her face with rough kisses that stung her cheek, her chin, her neck.

He stopped for a minute now. Roughly removing her check button down shirt. She rose up a bit helping him take her pants off. Then she helped him remove his pants. He wanted her so much; he could've howled with frustration.

He removed a her bra and licked her nipples, then moved his lips slowly down her stomach. He impatiently removed her underwear, and kissing her just above her pubic bone, he slipped two fingers inside her. Elena moved into his hands until he stopped suddenly, removing his fingers.

"You are so beautiful." he told her leaning down to kiss her lips. She kissed him back eagerly as

she ran her hands over his hard chest.

"Are you ready?" he asked her as he softly sucked on the skin of her neck.

Her thought was barely formed before a sharp pain echoed through her body he was filling her to the hilt. Filling her perfectly. She groaned at how perfectly he fit inside her. She loved the delicious torture going through her body.

He buried his face against her chest and held himself still, a feat that was getting more and more impossible by the second. His teeth ground together as he felt her body relax, and then her inner walls began to as well. She was so hot inside, so soft and tight, that he thought he would go mad if he didn't move inside her soon.

"I am going to fuck you hard. Fuck you so hard that you see stars. I'm going to fuck you so hard that you'll never want me to stop fucking you…Elena..I told you I love like crazy, possessive , jealous and protective…you shouldn't have messed with me" he whispered in her ear making her shiver before he moved. It was like she'd been made for him.

He pulled back slightly but when he moved, her feminine passage caressed him. He rocked into her. She shifted trying to ease the pain and he lost control and thrust into her, this time so deeply he nudged the mouth of her womb.

"You are mine" he whispered.

"yes" she replied in a hiss.

"I mean it (thrust) I will personally remove anything that stands in my way of you" he said in between sighs.

She wriggled. Animal sounds roared from his throat. He lost control thrusting. It didn't take much time for them to both climax loudly.

Damon's head was buried in her hairs , his arms wrapped around her as she nestled closer.

"You're awake?" he said when he saw her eyes flutter open.

"What time is it?" she asked looking around.

"umm…3" he answered looking at the clock.

"Were we out that long?" she asked.

He chuckled.

"I am sorry" she apologized again.

"I took my revenge" he answered with a smirk.

"Yeah…that you did" she replied with a blush.

"I am not mad at you" he said looking at her. "but I am probably gonna kill everyone who were involved in this" he added in a dark tone.

"I know …it was very insensitive of us" she said trying to calm him down.

"You think?" he growled.

"Damon…you play all sort of pranks on them…come on…It was just a prank" she added.

"Just a prank…DO you have any idea how I felt for a second when I thought you hate me…" he hissed.

"I am sorry…I really am" she said.

"Nope…" he looked away.

"Please..Please…I'll do anything…" she said as she got on top of him.

"anything…?" he asked.

"anything"

"Well..wait here then…" he said as he pushed her off him and got up wearing his pants.

She looked at him as he searched for something in his closet. He came back slowly hiding something in his fist. She rose up, slightly, wearing his shirt to cover her self up.

She was now on the edge of bed, her legs hanging from the bed as he drew closer. He knelt down on his knees closer to her so he could look at her face directly. He made a grab for her hand and she saw him , slipping a ring on third finger of her left hand.

For a second she was shocked. She looked at him disbelievingly as if waiting for him to shout this was all a joke but he looked dead serious.

"I love you… I love you because you actually put effort into me, I love you because no one have ever given me the love you have given me and you are the only one who can ever love me like that…you make me feel I am worth something,you have nurturing nature and you take care of me, I love every single detail about you…your smile, your laugh, your insecurities , your believes …everything, I love you because you are just you…so in the end…I want to marry you." he said with a smile she had never seen before.

"but…we can't..what if…this is just…" she didn't know what to say.

He knew what she meant. She was thinking they were young, that with time he might regret his decision.

"no I would never regret you…I wanna grow old with you …we will be like that old couple down the street, me sitting on a rocking chair probably shouting at neighborhood children for being too loud and you by my side sitting with me , making me calm just by your touch…" he said looking at her with a smirk as she giggled.

"We will be all old and wrinkly …probably reading newspapers…we will fight over remote

control…I will paint your toes and nails. We will still have explosive sex life and embarrass the hell out of our grandkids. We will help each other wearing socks and pants when we are unable to bend because of arthritis,(Elena laughs) ,I will still love you even you get old and fat and wrinkly…I want you in every summer and winter of my life , Elena… I want to die in your arms…" he said looking at her as he continued.

She kissed him passionately. He replied with equal force.

"we are too young now…" she said

"Hey..I am not asking you to elope with me and marry me right now as much as I want…I am just

letting you know you're my fiance now" he said with a playful smirk.

"You didn't even give me a choice .You didn't even ask me If I wanted to marry you or not?" she said with a smirk.

"Honey…you are not getting a choice…you will be marrying me in about five to six years…" he said rolling his eyes.

She giggled, wrapping her arms around his neck.

"Okay fine…I will marry you…I will go to New York as your fiancé .Beside you will never find like who can handle you crazy mood swings" she said as if she was doing him a favor.

"Well…True that. But, then again you wont ever find I guy as handsome and loving as I am who has the abiity to handle your crazy shit" he replied with a smirk , laying back against headboard, making her sit between his legs, her back against his chest.

"What do you mean crazy shit…I am perfect" Elena said proudly.

"I get straight A's , I can cook , I make you speeches just by sucking you off…I'm perfect" she added with a grin.

"Name one thing I can't do?" she asked looking at him.

"Yeah…scared of dark, scared of storms, can't drive without running someone over, can't still cross a road without me holding your hand, cant open jars, cant close a zipper without help, can't watch a horror movie, can't handle your little brother, can't say no to people with unusual favors, can't kill a cockroach by herself…"he was about to go on.

"I said one …you have a list" Elena growled looking at his proud smirking face. She tried to hit him in the stomach with her elbow which he expertly blocked.

Her aggressiveness made him a loved how one minute she was all shy and the next she was aggressive. He wrapped his arms around her kissing her neck.

If you don't like anything about me then you should just go find yourself another girl…I am leaving" she shouted with a pout , wriggling in his arms.

He held on more tightly now, smirking at her outburst.

"I like a lot of things about you…like your cooking, I like how you're so loving and protective of me, I like how you remember the smallest details about me like my allergies ,my favorite drinks, what I like what I don't like, I like how you sing on top of your lungs when you're cooking for me,I like how you argue back until I let you have win, I like when you take like hours to get ready for me…actually Elena I like you a lot" he said making it sound like he just discovered this fact.

"What's gotten into you today?" Elena asked with slight blush.

"I know…who knew I was romantic at heart" he replied with a chuckle.

"You know what I like about you?" Elena said turning around, adjusting herself in his arms around his neck as she sat on his lap.

"You mean apart from the fact that I am extremely handsome and perfect" he replied with a cocky grin.

"Cocky much?" She said.

"I like how you can't sing but you do it anyway in your horrible voice ( Damon hiss), I like your absurd dance moves, ( Hey…I dance pretty good! ), when you act like a needy child ( seriously woman?), I like the horrible coffee you make for me, I like how you help me with my anxieties,I like how you still need help closing your cuff links and buttons ( hey! its difficult) I love how you are so protective of me , I like it how you can lift heavy stuff" she said cupping his face.

"Tell me more!" he argued , running fingers through her hair.

"I like how you remember little things that I talked about a while ago, and following up on them because your actually curious about it." She said with a smile. "Of course, I am …you're exciting" he replied as if it wasn't a new thing.

I love how you sweep me off my feet, carry me to the bed and toss me gently onto the bed!" she said with a chuckle. He holds her hands and kiss her fingers smiling. " Yes …that too…when you kiss my fingers I love it" she added with a smile.

"I love how you defend me in an argument with someone else even when I am wrong…you know like the time when you got into fight with my bio lab partner last year when I lost his practical book and you somehow made it his fault that I lost his book" Elena chuckled. He laughed too.

"Most of all I love this…being in your arms on your lap talking about stuff we already know about each other" she said with a smile.

"I am sorry for everything I have done Elena…you deserve so much better then me …but I don't think I can bear it If you left so I can't let you go even though it's really selfish" he finished , his forehead touching hers.

"I want you to be selfish …It's only you for me…I want to be with you only…I have always loved you and I always will love you" she said in a final tone.

"I know…I love you too…" he said with a smile pecking her.

"You know you're mine right?" he asked.

"Yup, You don't ever have to worry about that…" she said showing him her ring with a smile.

He smiled back. He wanted to play the field but now every girl he ever saw blurred out as his eyes were set on the gold in front of him.

He wasn't perfect but he was all she wanted.

They clicked.

He got a second chance with a person he clicked with, he knew there weren't many people who get what he have , when you find someone who means the world to you , you just don't let them go. He was never going to let her go.

Epilogue

An alarm clock was blinking 3:00 A.M. A brunette haired woman woke up and started to countdown.

3. 2. 1." as soon as she finished counting, a cry was heard in another room of the house. She turned to the other side of the bed to find her husband still sleeping. She nudged the man. "Damon, wake up," Elena , said to her husband, Damon, "it's your turn to check up on Zoey."

Damon just turned over.

"Don't start that again. You know it's your turn to check up on her," Elena complained.

"Please…Please…let me sleep" was all Damon said as he rolled over near the edge of the bed.

Elena grabbed her pillow and started to beat him to death until he fell off the bed.

Well," Elena said laying back on her pillow, "Go already before she wakes up the other two monsters"

"That's was so unfair," Damon complained grabbing his pillow and walking out of the room. He walked down the hallway and into a room filled with baby stuff.

He walked over to a crib to peer over his daughter, the 2 year old baby named Zoey. She has brown hair and baby blue eyes.

"Princess..we talked about this …you're not suppose to wake up on dad's night" Damon said,the girl continued crying lifting her arms up , indicating to lift her up."Fine" he replied . "It's a good thing you're cute".He said as he lifted her up. He carried her downstairs into the kitchen, and set her down into her stool. Damon walked to the refrigerator and started searching for that baby formula.

"Now..where is your bottle?" Damon asked himself throwing everything out of the fridge and onto the floor. He got up and started to catch his breath to call out to Elena.

"The formula is on the counter," Elena answered from upstairs before he was able to ask the question. Damon peered to the counter and saw that the baby formula was already in the bottle and into a pot of water ready to boil.

"Hump…she thinks she is better than me…" Damon muttered turning on the water and sat down at the table and dropped his head on the pillow he brought down.

Zoey was staring at Damon with her large baby blue eyes. She reached over and started hitting Damon on the head with her stuffed dragon bear."Wake up..daddy…Play with Zoey". After 2 minutes of Damon-Abuse, Damon turned his turn and said, "Are you ever tired?" She just giggled and clapped her hands together. "I'd take that as a 'no'..." Damon got up to get the bottle. He then walked back with the bottle held the bottle to Zoey.

"I envy you…All you get to do is sleep all day…you literally have everyone is your personal slave…I wish I was a baby" he grumbled , half sleep.

When Zoey was finished, Damon then took Zoey back to her room and set her back in her crib. He then grabbed his pillow off the floor and walked over to the carpet.

Zoey looked at him as if he was crazy.

He lay down on the carpet, his head on the pillow, his legs wide stretched on Zoey's doll's tea table.

"Your mom…she beat me up with pillows…" Damon explained, "I'm sleeping here for the rest of the night."

It was six when Elena walked into the room to find Zoey still awake, who somehow got out of her crib and was sitting next to her father, playing with a sleeping Damon's face who was on the floor , mouth open , head resting one of Zoey's dragon toy while his pillow in his arms.

"Sometimes I wonder who's the REAL baby... you or your father... "Elena sighed picking up Zoey.

When breakfast was finished being made, Damon literally tumbled down the stairs and fell on his back. "I'm okay..." he said slowly getting up and rubbing the back of his neck. "We really got to fix that top step," he said. "Who's the loser architect who built this house anyways?"

"You're the loser architect who built this house, so I guess you should sue yourself," Elena answered with a chuckle serving down to pancakes, eggs before pecking him on lips.

"Oh yeah..." Damon said grabbing his food sitting down to the table.

"Where are the other two broken condoms?" he asked.

"Please call your children by their name" she said.

"Shouldn't they be up by now?" he asked with a yawn.

"Yes..and that is your job …waking them up" She hissed.

"Oh…Fuck"

"Damon" Elena warned , signaling Zoey.

"Pick me up" Zoey ordered from her stool.

"Say the magic word" Elena said as she narrowed.

"I am a princess…Princess's order..don't they dad?" Zoey said in a quite babyish tone.

"Well..then your dad will pick you up…Your highness" Elena answered , glaring at Damon.

"Ok…I didn't teach her that"

"Stop spoiling her"

"I am not spoiling her…I am just giving her unconditional love…Now Lady…You cannot snatch that right from me…" he said dramatically, picking Zoey up.

"I love Dad…I don't love mum" Zoey said , glaring at Elena , imitating her mother's action of narrowing eyes and hissing.

"She doesn't mean that" Damon called after Elena who glared at him before she left.

"Mom jealous?" Zoey asked.

"Yeah…she is always jealous of how you love me most" Damon answered with a smirk as showered kisses on his daughter's cheeks.

"Now…princess you play with your toys while I go wake your brothers up for school"

He said as he carefully placed her in the playarea of her room.

"I will be back in awhile…" he said as he placed another kiss on his daughter's cheek.

"Wake up! You Spazoids!...Broken condom 1 and broken condom 2" he said as he threw a half a bucket water on the 14 year sleeping twins.

"Actually …we are the result of one broken condom" Steven, brown hairs matching Elena's and matching brown eyes .

"Nerd" he mumbled as he looked over the upper bunk.

"Goku…get your lazy ass down now…you'll get late again and your mum will somehow make it my fault" Damon shouted at the other twin on the upper bunk.

Goku smirked and continued pretending to sleep, he too had Elena's brown hairs but he didn't look at all like Elena , he was more of a carbon copy of his father, blue eyes ,straight nose and fuller lips.

Damon thanked Lord his twin sons weren't identical .They were already handful. Identical looks would have made it even more difficult raising them then it already was.

"Don't make me get my air horn …!" Damon warned.

"Fine…Fine I'm up!" Goku said in a sleepy tone.

"Why would did you name me Goku again?" he added in an annoyed tone.

"That was my deal with your mum, she let me name you and I will do the dishes lifetime" Damon replied in a satisfied tone.

"Was it worth it , Dad?" Goku asked in a stern tone.

"Of course…It was Goku…Of course it was…" Damon answered with a grin. His official name was Ryan Salvatore but he was quite famous by the name of Goku.

"I call dibs on washroom" Steven shouted as he rushed to washroom locking door.

"but it's my turn to go to washroom first, this week" Goku shouted going after him.

"Then get up early you Lazy oaf" Steven shouted back from within.

"Mummmmmm!" Goku shouted.

"If I give you five bucks will you stop shouting before your mum barges in ? You do know how she gets when you two spazoids start fighting in the morning" Damon offered.

"Deal" Goku said.

"Did you drop them off?" Elena asked as she rushed , cleaning kitchen counters. Zoey cheered as she saw her father enter.

"Obviously" he said as he picked her up.

"Will you take her to work today…I got this huge conference" Elena asked.

"Lena this is the tenth time you made me take her to work with me" Damon said.

"Well…she is YOUR princess" Elena said with a scoff as she went off to her room.

"yeah but do you know how difficult it is to carry her around all day …not to mention I have two important meetings" Damon said following her.

"Please…Just this last time…" Elena said turning around, batting her eye lashes , making a pout.

"Don't try that on me" he said looking away.

"I am not looking…I am not looking ( tries to look away) Damn it…okay…Fine…but you owe me big Lena"

"I know….I will make it up to you" she said in a seductive tone as she kissed him on his cheek.

They were about to leave house when he called after her. "You forgot your mid day snack". Elena was the cook in the Salvatore family. Damon couldn't boil water without burning it. But when he hands her snacks , he made just for her, Elena simply accepts it with wide smile and a deep kiss. (She was going to have serious stomach disorders soon)

"She is just so cute" Marcel said , holding the cute two year old , caressing his cheek.

"She takes after her mother" Klaus said as he entered.

Marcel leaves with Zoey.

"Morning, Jerk" Damon greeted without looking up from his files.

"Good Morning to you too, Buttwipe" Klaus replied.

"So …big day tomorrow!" Damon said.

"To think…My boss who is also suppose to be my best friend is making me work two days before

my wedding"

"see…You and Barbie had been living together for like ten years…plus you guys eloped two years ago and this wedding is only for family and friends …this doesn't change anything…ergo you're still working till tomorrow besides you are taking two months off for your honeymoon…it's only fair you work for me till the wedding day" Damon said.

"Says the guy who married his girlfriend after their twins turned five"

"Hey…we were busy raising the asshole team" Damon replied.

Marcel returned with Zoey in his hands.

"Zoey…" Klaus said picking the little two year old up.

"Careful with her…a hand on the back too… and hold her lightly...Oh My God…Klaus not like that

( Damon gets up and rushes to his friend) Give her to me..." Damon said as he took his daughter.

"Damon…Chill…I have three year old boy too…I know how to hold kids…" Klaus said trying to take his niece back.

"Yeah…you have a boy…girls are different" Damon said brushing his hands away. Zoey clanged to her father like baby Koala.

"It's been two years and you still won't let me hold her" Klaus complained.

"Zoey is the only girl baby in our family….only experts such as I, are allowed to hold her…" Damon

said kissing his daughter on top of her head.

"Yup, it's weird. Jeremy , Stefan ,Kol and me …we all get boys…how come you get a baby girl?.What style did you two do that night?" Klaus asked.

Damon looked horrified.

"Don't talk about S-E-X in front of my daughter…Klaus…seriously what's the matter with you?" he almost shouted.

"Chill…papa bear…"

"I will not chill…you will not …I repeat not…talk about that in front of my children…especially my daughter" Damon said.

"Oh My God…Damon…what's the matter with you…It's not like she understands anything we say?" Klaus said.

"I mean…I can only imagine your reaction when she starts dating…"

"lalalallalal…I am not listening…." Damon said . The thought of HIS daughter dating was scary.

"Where is your mum?" he asked as soon as he entered. This had been a routine. He needed to see her as soon as he came back from work.

"Zoey" Steven said as he took his baby sister from his father.

"uhh…that way" Steven replied pointing at the tree.

"There, there, little guy, you'll be back to home soon", Elena said as she stepped on higher

branch.

Damon turned around, and saw his wife in the tree.

"Umm, Elena, what are you doing?"

"Oh hi Damon!" Elena said happily. "This bird baby had fallen from its nest so I'm helping it back."

She places the bird next to others. "There you go. Don't fall again."

"Hey, be careful! That branch doesn't look too stro-"

The branch said "crack" and next thing Elena saw ground getting closer with huge speed.

"I got you mum…I got you" Goku said as he held his arms wide.

"Get out of the way" Damon said slightly pushing Goku to the side and catching his wife in his arms right on time.

"He got you" Goku said with a cold sigh.

"Seriously?" Damon asked, anger evident in his tone.

"What? The little birdie needed me" she replied.

"You could have hurt yourself" Damon said .

"I knew you will save me…" she said with a slight chuckle as he helped her land on her feet gracefully.

"So…are we all ready?" Goku asked.

"Oh….I love weddings" Steven added,

"Are you sure this one is mine?" Damon asked Elena, one eyebrow raised.

Elena scoffed.

"We are twins…of course…I am yours…unless we're both adopted" Steven replied in a matter of fact tone.

"We aren't adopted are we?" Steven added with slight worried tone.

"Yes..because it's should have been very easy for a 20 year old college student and her 21 year old college student boyfriend to adopt twins and raise them…seriously and you call him the smart one?"Will you believe he is 14?" Goku asked with a frown.

"Broken condom part 1 has a point" Damon said.

"Damon" Elena warned.

"So back to my original question…are we ready?" Goku asked.

"Yes…but dad needs to freshen up and have lunch first before we leave…so you two can play your Xbox game for awhile…" Elena said as she took Zoey from Steven.

"GO…Asshole team…enjoy while you can!" Damon said dramatically as their twins ran back to house.

"Mummmm!" Zoey enthusiastically hugged Elena.

"Did*kiss*my baby*kiss* miss*kiss* mom?" Elena asked as she showered feathery kisses on her

daughter's face .

"No..she didn't …she was with her dad…she didn't miss mum at all…did you princess?" Damon asked he too placed a kiss on his daughter's head.

"I miss mum" Zoey said snuggling with Elena.

"huh..(fake gasp) traitor!" Damon said.

"You must be starving…" Elena said looking at Damon.

"Oh…I am gonna die" Damon replied.

"So…What do we have today?" Damon asked as he placed plates on their dining table. "Your favorite.."

"Your sandwiches again…yay!" Damon said with a mock enthusiasm.

"Eggplant Parmesan" Elena said with a smirk as she placed the dish in front of him.

"Have I ever told you I love you?…" he said with a wide grin as he rolled his sleeves.

"Once or twice ...maybe" she replied with a smirk.

"You haven't eaten yet?" he asked as he saw her set a plate for herself too.

"Lunches and dinner with my husband…" she replied as she took a bite.

"Elena..Not this again…you know I come home late sometimes …you don't need to wait for me" he said as he too took a bite.

"Nope...I prefer waiting for you and enjoying lunch with my husband" she said as she poured him water, right on cue and gave it to him.

"We have a long weekend ...I can't believe Care is getting married" Elena added before he could scold her more.

"Technically, they are already married"

"Point"

Just before Elena was going to ask about lunch.

"It's delicious…" he complemented. "This was one of the reason I married you …your cooking is awesome"

Elena chuckled. This kind of thing happened when you had been with someone for almost twenty years of your life. You can read each other like an open book.

He continued chewing swiftly.

"For the 123,652,11 time ..chew slowly" Elena said .

"Geez Elena, I brought everything," Damon answered.

"Good because I know that you always forget something and we would have to turn around to go

get it."

"Come on..Woman your insulting me now , that too in front of the asshole team," Damon assured starting the car and leaving the driveway.

After 1 hour of coming back to the house because Damon left the diapers, the drinks, and the water on, his pants, the suitcase, their toothbrushes, the toothpaste, the money, and Zoey, they finally made it back to Salvatore Boarding House.

"Hey we finally made it," Damon exclaimed getting out of the car to stretch.

"We could have made it an hour ago…If you didn't keep forgetting things"

"You jinxed it…" Damon muttered.

"Help your dad with the luggage…I didn't shoot you two out of me so you could chill around and be useless" Elena ordered the twins.

"Now the rules are same…no staying awake overnight, no drinking coffee,no watching inappropriate movies, no fighting,no swearing and last but not the least and you three better lesson to this one…NO PLOTTING PRANKS ON PEOPLE…AM I CLEAR" Elena said in her most serious tone.

"Yes maam" the twins replied in unison.

"Am I clear Damon?" she looked over at her husband who didn't look back in her eye.

"Damon…AM I CLEAR?"

"Fine..Lady…you win this time" Damon replied.

"Such a buzz kill" Goku said.

"I know , right" Damon replied.

"Elena" she heard Stefan. She turned around and ran into his arms. He caught her and smiled.

"Oh..I missed you so much" she said as she hugged him tight.

"I missed you too" Stefan replied.

"Ok…umm…Hands off my wife now" Damon said walking over to them and trying to pull her away.

"You look so different then the last time I saw you…you lost weight didn't you?" Elena said looking at Stefan.

"What are you talking about…you saw him two weeks ago" Damon said , looking annoyed.

"Yeah…but we had never been this far from eachother for this long" Stefan replied as he let Elena examine him.

"You never showed this enthusiasm when I came back after a week from France last month." Damon asked Elena.

"Oh stop being such a caveman …" Elena said as she brushed him off.

"Hey Elena" Lexi said as she came walking towards her husband's bestfriend.

"Lex" Elena said as she walked over toward the woman and hugged her too.

"How is new Mrs. Salvatore?" Elena asked the newly married well eight month old married woman.

"Oh…please never call me that" Lexi said with a giggle.

"I know right…It sounds like ….a very old Italian hooker" Elena said with giggle.

"Yeah…yeah…enough making fun of our last name" Stefan interjected.

"Zoeyyy!" Stefan said enthusiastically taking the little girl from Damon's hands.

"Stefan!" Zoey replied with the same level enthusiasm.

"Careful with her" Damon warned.

"Oh quit it Damon…I use to babysit children…I know how to handle children" Stefan said , glaring at his brother.

"He is still over protective about her?" Lexi asked Elena.

"Multiply by two than the last time…to think he use to hate kids?" Elena said with a giggle, holding her husband's arm.

"Well…she is the only baby girl in our family…she is going to be the most spoil brat of this century" Lexi said , caressing the little girl's hair who was laughing at the faces Stefan made.

"We should get inside…Zoey catches cold fast" Damon said.

"Where is my Max?" Elena asked Lexi.

"Oh…Xbox games"

"Care!" Elena shouted excitedly as she hugged Caroline.

"I can't believe you're getting married" Elena added as they pulled away.

"I know…I am too freaked out" Caroline said.

"Technically you're already married" Damon pointed out.

"I would have never invited you if you weren't Elena's husband" Caroline said making a face.

"I would have never bothered being acquaintances with you if you weren't my wife's friend" Damon spat back.

"Not this again…" Elena nearly shouted.

"I hereby pass a rule i.e. no fighting this weekend" Elena said.

"Seconded" Klaus said, coming from behind wrapping his arms around Caroline.

"Excuse me Gentlemen…I need my ladies for a while" Stefan said as he handed over Zoey to Damon and motioned the girls to follow him.

"Lexi! Doesn't Stefan still hanging out with his girl buddies annoy you?" Klaus asked.

"No…I actually enjoyed myself in their sleepover party" Lexi said with a wide grin.

"How come she get to go to your "Us three Best friends Special Sleepover Party" ?" Damon asked Elena.

"Oh…Lexi is fun" Caroline said.

"I still get annoyed at the fact that they have a sleepover party every month even after so many years like some kindergarteners" Klaus commented, annoyed.

"You're just saying that because you're jealous" Caroline pointed out looking at him.

"I really want to know what you three talk about alone…please can I come this time?" Klaus pleaded.

"Nope…our Sleepover party is only for us three…me, Lena and Care…and sometimes Lexi…" Stefan said .

"This is not going to be a whole night thing this time…the soon to be bride needs her beauty sleep.." Elena said looking at Stefan.

"We will schedule another sleepover after my honeymoon" Caroline said looking at Stefan.

"Two months…" Stefan sighed.

"aww…I will miss you too" Caroline looping her arm through his.

"Zoey..do you want to come with Mum?" Elena said looking at Zoey.

Zoey snuggled further in her father's neck ignoring Elena.

Damon smirked.

"She loves me more…" he said to Elena.

Elena sighed and left.

"Alex is sleeping right now …but keep an eye on him" Caroline instructed Klaus before she left.

"Here boys…your drinks" Lexi handed them both drinks.

"Where are Bonnie and Enzo?" Damon asked Lexi.

"Oh …she called yesterday…she is still in NY , busy with the firm work…she will be here by this time tomorrow with Enzo of course.." Lexi said cheerfully.

"I need to check up on the boys..." Lexi added as she left.

Klaus chuckled.

"Any plans ?" Damon asked.

"My wedding or April fool day?" Klaus asked.

"Well…obviously April fool day"

"You still haven't gotten over the prank by Elena that happened 16 years ago" Klaus said with a

chuckle.

"I keep grudges forever" he said darkly.

"Did you know what I did to her the last time?"

"Yeah…Care told me about that…you took her to a zoo , she didn't suspect you because you took the kids too , only she didn't realize that the asshole team was in on it the whole time…then you left her at a spot...and then chased her around the zoo in a gorilla suit…Nice..Respect!"

"hehe… Some people define the prank as putting plastic wrap on toilet or hiding behind the door and jumping but I define it as making my wife think that I killed our son"

"You did what?" Klaus nearly shouted.

"Ok…so I pretended that I accidentally threw Goku off the roof…So there Goku was on the floor ready according to the plan ,covered in Ketcup…"

"You took that too far!" Klaus pointed out.

"Oh! You have no idea…she silent treated my ass for weeks…" Damon replied.

"and the time before that ,I hid in the fridge …scared the living day lights out of her…although I almost froze to death…actually I think I caught cold and then she had to take care of me" Damon added with a chuckle.

"Mate…you are very mean to her…" Klaus interjected.

"She started it…16 years back" Damon said raising his eyebrows defending himself.

"Dad..DAD..DAD… Picture this: your dear, sweet wife opens the fridge to reveal her beloved son's decapitated head in a pickle jar." Goku said appearing out of nowhere.

"The asshole team is on your side?"Klaus asked.

"Our loyalties are with dad…" Steven answered.

"I can't imagine being Elena…living with you three" Klaus said as he shivered.

"In return…I buy them cool teenager shit…as long as they get good grades…thank God they inherited their mother's brain…" Damon said.

"So how about it?" Max , eleven year old, Stefan's son asked.

"No…you dumbshit…I can't cut off my son's head just to prank my wife" Damon stated in a matter of fact tone.

"Oh not literally dad…it's just a science trick…see all we have to do…" Steven was cut off by Damon.

"Nope…last time I did that….your mum nearly divorced me ..so no"I accidentally killed our

children or our dog or our cat pranks" okay?…"

"How about we scare her with a fake dead body?" Steven proposed.

"Yeah…we can like make one with plastic cups …and a bag…" Goku added.

"I was thinking to Secretly place cockroaches inside her umbrella. The next time she opens the umbrella she's in for a surprise or get a lock of hair extensions that match her hair color and length. And pretend to cut her hair, and show her the extensions." Damon suggested.

"So uncle Klaus…your call …what should we do?" Steven said.

"umm…son…I am getting married tomorrow to the best friend/ sister of the woman your about to prank…keep me out of this…I've planned a lot of stuff for honeymoon and Caroline might not appreciate me participating in such…events" Klaus said as he raised his hands in surrender.

"He is so whipped.." Goku whispered to Damon.

"Tell me about it" Damon commented with a smirk.

"How is everything with you?" Stefan asked her as they took a sip of their drink.

"Everything is great… I thought getting back to work after Zoey's birth will be difficult…what with me falling off stairs in my eighth month and almost dying during Zoey's delivery…he is even more responsible than he was before…" she stopped with a sigh.

******************flashback***************

Damon's never been so scared in his life. She's eight months pregnant with their baby girl, and she's just fallen down the steps. 'Breathe, just keep breathing, please,' He pleads, and Elena struggles for another breath, for him... for their little girl.

******************over*********************

"You scared us that time…I still shiver when I remember that" Stefan interjected, side hugging her.

"I had health issues after that..but we pulled through…plus thank God…Zoey is normal in every way…Damon had helped me through a lot…he is the one who does homework with the asshole team… he is the one they go to when they have girl issues. He is so close to them they consider more like a brother than a father…" Elena said with a smile.

***************flashback*******************

"There is this girl…dad…I just really like her…she is very pretty…she is just you know magic" Goku said while he sat next to his father helping him with his design.

"Aha…so" Damon continued still working on his model for the building.

"but she is such a smart ass …I mean….she is such a goody two shoes…girls like that don't fall

for guys like me" he continued with a sigh.

"guys like you…?" Damon asked with his nose wrinkled.

"you know…bad ass guys"

"yeah bad ass…huh…you wet your bed till you were ten…you still sleep with lights on …not to mention you need a hug from your mum everytime I scold you" Damon said with a scoff.

"I swear if you tell that to anyone…I will tell mum about that thing?"

"You wouldn't dare….I will disown you" Damn warned.

"then we have a deal?"

"fine…your secret is save with me…"

"Now…back to original problem"

"yeah…pretty girl issue"

"So…she is well really pretty…I want to ask her out but I am afraid she will turn me down…I mean really dad…how did you ever end up with a woman like mum…no offense but you're more of one-time-thing type of guy…now uncle Stefan would have probably the better choice" Goku said with a smrik in the end.

"ahmm…you want to take that back?" Damon said with his eyes narrowed.

"yes please…" Goku answered seeing his father's mad look.

"Good choice"

"but still …what's your secret…I mean how do I get that girl to go out with me?"

"well..uhh…Dump a bucket of glitter on your head and stand in the sunlight…she will come running"

"What ? …No" Goku answered looking shocked.

"then grow a pair and talk to them…seriously…you are an embarrassment to the Salvatore Males…"

"but how?"

"fine…I'll teach you..the Salvatore way"

***************over*****************

"Sexy smirk, with running hand through your hair while you look intently to the girl making her feel like the only woman in the room ?" Stefan asked.

"That's the one" Elena answered with a giggle.

"huh…although Goku is right…You should have married me" Stefan said he nudged her.

Elena laughed.

"he is very good with Zoey too…in fact…he is Zoey's favorite person…she loves him more then she loves me…wait no she loves him more then she loves chocolate …and we all know how much she loves chocolate…" Elena said with a smile on her face.

"I can see that…Zoey and Damon are inseparable team…Wonder how will he react when she starts dating?" Stefan said.

"haha…Don't even talk about that in front of him…he is literally about to faint at that very thought" Elena replied with a giggle.

"He does most of the work with the children…he gets them ready for school , he drops them off, he keeps pretty tight eye on them too…he goes to each and every PTM with me…he helps them with sports and homework…he is the perfect dad…"Elena said with a smile.

"Sometimes…I can't believe he is the same Damon who used to hate children" Stefan said.

"I know…right?" Elena said.

"He takes care of me…a lot…he doesn't even have to say that he loves me…I look into his eyes and I know that because everything he does is for me…" Elena said with a smile.

"Do you guys still fight?" Stefan asked.

"well…not anymore…after you know..Zoey's birth…Reason one might be the fact that he still thinks I'm very vulnerable…and Reason two…he is too tired…besides even if we do we end up having mind-blowing sex" Elena said with a smirk.

"Aww…you didn't need to tell me that…" Stefan said.

"What are you two talking about?" Care said as she entered holding a vodka bottle in her hand.

"Care ! no…you know…I stopped drinking after the birth of my twins…" Elena said.

"Yup…I know..This is for me and Stef…" she said as she handed a glass to Stefan.

"So how are things with Lexi?" Caroline asked.

"Amazing…she is awesome with Max…" Stefan said with a proud smile.

"I can see that...I have never seen you so happy" Elena said.

"Your lovestory is so cute I mean…you saw her in Elena's class…first sight love…went on dates…moved in together after three months…got her knocked up two years later just like your elder brother knocked Elena up in college but he was rather quick" Caroline giggled making Elena blush.

"and to think I freaked out…It was mid semester and I started throwing up…" Elena said remembering events from 15 years ago when she was just a twenty year old girl.

"Stefan was the one …who actually found out" Elena added.

"Yup…me living with you two in college time had its perks…" Stefan said.

"She started shouting…She was so scared" Stefan added with a smirk.

"Enter Damon Savatore…always there to cope with my anxieties.."

***********flash back************

"I am just twenty …I just started my semester…We can't deal with this…We both have jobs to get you through college…and also apartment rent…Damon …what will we do?" she said as she cried .

"We will manage…I am going to be with you on every step" Damon said as he tried to calm her down.

"Lena..We are here for you…I'm here for you" Stefan said as he knelt down on his knees next to his brother.

"What if …we just take care of it?" Elena suggested.

"Are you insane…Elena..Are you saying this…the girl that can't bear to see an animal hurt …" Damon said, shocked.

"I know…I am horrible…How can I even think of that?" Elena said as she started to cry again.

"Baby…it's just your anxiety…we can get through this…I always thought, there was too much kindness, goodness and love in you that one day it had to be passed on to a little version of you…Yes…it's crazy but I am actually happy about this…because one thing I know for sure is that …you are going to be the most amazing mother to our child…" he said looking intently at her.

"Take a deep breath…look at me…This will be our best adventure yet" he said with a smile.

"You always know how to calm me down" she said as she hugged him

*************over*******************

"It was him who got us through that" Elena said with a slight smile.

"See! We did change him…Remember how much of asshole he was in middle school"

"Of course I do…There was this one time when he was trying to kiss me …before our relationship and You remember Leo my kitty right?" Elena asked.

"Yeah…" Stefan nodded.

"Well one day"

*******flashback*********

"Elena…" she gasped when she saw the black haired 15 year old boy standing so close to her.

"Why are you always following me?" she said as she back away a little a bit.

"I will stop if you go out with me.." he said with an evil smirk.

"No..I don't wanna go out with you…" she said as she walked past him. He followed her with a sigh, to his brother's room.

"I am just here to collect my stuff I left last night, Sleepover with Stefan" she said as she entered Stefan's room.

She saw as he eyed her with a smirk. She knew what he was about to do.

"You can't kiss me…Stef told you he will break your jaw if you ever did that again" she threatened.

"And I am so not afraid of baby bro" he said,coming closer.

He saw Elena's cat jump out of nowhere and stand in front of him.

He watched as the cat began to try to attack and protect Elena. Damon grabbed it by its neck and put it close to his face.

"You know good and well that you're as threatening as a teddy bear," Damon smirked. He soon regretted it as the cat cut him on his nose

"Oh my God" Elena shouted. She took her cat from his hand.

As soon as the cat was completely off of him, blood began to ooze slowly out of the wounds. "I'm very sorry."she said as she dropped the cat down and rushed to him, examining his face.

"If it wasn't yours I would have stepped on it or gave it to Rusco."

"Rusco?" Then the large dog leapt from the bed and walked to Damon. Elena gave a light shriek as she backed.

"When did you get a dog?" she shouted.

"It's not mine…It's Mason's…He dropped Rusco off for a day" he said with a chuckle.

"Here buddy…Don't scare my girlfriend" he said as he picked the large dog up.

"I am not your girlfriend" she said as she jumped off his bed and picked her scared cat up.

"I will get something for those scratches..wait here" she added.

As Damon heard the door close, Rusco snatched the abandoned sausages off the table.

"You idiot dog! That was mine!" Damon scolded as the dog ran off with the meat.

*********over**********

Stefan and Caroline laughed hysterically.

"I remember that one…" Stefan said.

"Remember what he did to Jeremy after the prank we played on him 15 years ago.

"Yes…he was so pissed at Jeremy for not telling him about our plans…Jeremy is suppose to be his agent on our side." Elena said with a smile.

*****flashback*****

"You are suppose report to me…you are suppose to be loyal to me…Fucking Traitor…"growled Damon, grabbing the collar of Jeremy's shirt and raising his fist.

"No, Damon!" shouted the rest of the group, as he was about to lower his fist soundly in Jeremy's face. At the same time, however, Jeremy had whipped out something from his pocket and held it in front of himself like a barrier between himself and Damon.

Damon stopped his attack to glance at the object curiously. It was the back of an old photograph. What kind of photograph could it be for Jeremy to depend his life on it this much?

"If you hurt me, then I won't give you this," said Jeremy. He waved the photo back and forth as if testing to see if he had Damon's full attention. "I know you want this, don't you, Damon ol' buddy? It's a picture of Elena when she was a baby! I nicked it off Alaric when we were at his house."

Damon slightly raised an eyebrow. Elena's jaw dropped and she froze for a moment in disbelief.

"What? When did he-" started a pale-faced Alaric, but he was cut off when Elena turned her face sharply and glared. Alaric shrank a little. A puzzled look came over his face, as he started to protest, "Wait, Elena, that isn't-"

But he did not get a chance to explain as Elena was already stomping towards Jeremy.

"JEREMY! GIVE ME THAT PICTURE!" yelled Elena. Jeremy chuckled and dashed away, with Elena right at his heels. "Get back here, you stupid moron!"

******over******

"It was Jeremy's picture…Ric didn't have my baby photos here…My baby photo were safe and sound with my dad in Richmond" Elena said.

Stefan and Caroline laughed.

"So Care Bear…getting married again to the same guy huh …how does that feel?" Stefan asked looking at Caroline now.

"It feels good…Nick is everything I want. I always wanted to marry a guy wrapped around my pinky and Nick is just all that" Caroline said with a giggle.

"I am going to miss you a lot…two months" Stefan said.

"Yeah..especially our Sunday brunch" Caroline said making a pout.

"oh..you can go with Elena" Caroline suggested.

"It won't be the same without you" Stefan replied.

"and don't worry about Alex…I will make sure he never miss you" Elena said looking at Caroline.

"yeah…It kills me to be away from my baby for even a second..How am I going to live without him for two months" Caroline said.

"You will be fine…you need a break" Stefan said patting her back.

"Care…honey Alex is awake…" Lexi informed.

"Oh…This might take awhile…Don't wait up" Caroline said as she got up.

"I should go to put the asshole team plus Max in the bed" Stefan said as he got up.

"Ok…Goodnight" Elena replied.

"Where is Zoey?" Elena asked as she entered their old room.

She found him sleeping with Zoey on top of him sleeping too. She smiled watching them for a minute. Elena walked toward them and slowly moved his hands away and lifted her daughter up without waking her up.

She took Zoey to a the nursery that once belong to Steven and Ryan. She slowly put the girl down , kissing her once before leaving.

When she went back to her room, she found Damon sleeping soundly. She adjusted comforter on top of him before sliding next to him, wrapping her hands around him, snuggling.

"I love you" she whispered , even though she knew he was asleep. She just wanted to say it.

"I love you too" he whispered back to her surprise.

It was a beautiful Saturday today. The birds were chirping, the sky is cloudless, and the children were out to play.

CRASH!

"DAMON! COME BACK HERE YOU STUPID LOSERFIED PANZY SO I CAN BEAT YOUR HEAD IN!" Stefan yelled causing the entire city to hear him, who was wearing nothing but his boxers carrying a large bat.

REWIND!

In the Salvatore home, Elena was helping Lexi serve breakfast and the twins Goku , Steven were sitting at the table when Damon slowly walked to the kitchen with Zoey in his hands.

"Morning, Damon," Lexi greeted. "Would you please go and wake Stefan up?"

"Sure..." Damon gave an evil grin, handing Zoey to Caroline, walking back toward the stairs.

"Uh oh I forgot... quickly, put on the earmuffs under the table!" Elena ordered as they, including her twins, and her daughter put on the ear muffs.

(insert super air horn noise)

Damon ran down the stair dropping an air horn the size of a keyboard on the floor and ran out the backdoor. Stefan then walked down the stairs carrying a bat with his hair all on one side.

"Which way did Damon go?" Stefan asked in a low, deadly voice. Everyone pointed towards the door.

"Thanks..." (CRASH!) "DAMON! COME BACK HERE YOU STUPID POINTY HEAD SCUMBAG SO I CAN BEAT THE FUCK OUT OF YOU!" Stefan yelled spotting him as he chased him down the street until he caught up with him.

"Err... what happened and how did you know that would happen?" Goku asked.

"Damon has been waiting 9 years to pull that stunt... It started 9 years ago... the day they had to go to our rehearsal dinner..." Elena began.

**********Flashback 9 years ago**********

Damon was sleeping halfway in his bed when Stefan came in wearing a long-sleeve blue shirt and black pant putting on a tie.

"Damon, get gotta get to the rehearsal," Stefan said nudging him to get up. Damon didn't move.

He then grunted, left the room, and came back holding an airhorn.

He came close to the sleeping man and blew the horn right near his ear making Damon jump out of bed.

"WTF WAS THAT FOR?!" Damon yelled.

"To wake you up... " Stefan answered laughing his head off as he left the room.

"Mark my words, Stefan Salvatore , One day... I'll get my revenge... SOMEDAY!" As soon as he thrusted his fist in the air, he activated a switch that caused Automatic Roof Fire extinguisher to start .Great ,now he was wet too. "Curse you sibling rivalry... I PROMISE YOU AN ENTERNITY FULL OF MISERY"

"SHOVE THE ENTERNITY UP YOUR ASS" Stefan replied from downstairs.

******End*****

"Ohh..." Steven said. "That's funny... I will totally do that to you, Goku"

"No air horns in my house" Elena warned.

"You are no fun" Goku said.

"Deal with it" Elena replied.

Stefan and Damon came back looking as if they just wrestled.

Elena sighed and threw a water bottle at Damon. He catches it expertly and drank. "Shower!" Elena ordered.

"Sure…you wanna join" he whispered in her ear.

"Dad…Mum…for goodness sake…Get a room" Steven said as he got up and left.

"Dad I want ten bugs" Goku said.

"Yeah…and I want a son who get A's in school but we don't always get what want …do we?" Damon answered not looking at him.

Lexi chuckled.

"Says the guy who hardly passed Math" Stefan commented.

"That guy is a famous architect now…" Damon replied.

"All thanks to Elena" Stefan replied.

Damon sighed. Yes, that was true. He couldn't have done it , if it weren't for her.

"I will find a girl like mum too…" Goku said.

"A Chi Chi for Goku…huh..nice" Damon said.

"I hate this name" Goku growled.

"You should be thankful to me …It was I , who suggested Goku…he was gonna name you Buttercup…" Klaus said.

"You wouldn't have let him do that…right?" Goku asked his mother.

Elena ran her fingers through her son's hair.

"Sorry baby…I lost a bet to him...I would have let him name you Barbie if he wanted …" Elena said with a giggle.

Damon chuckled.

"Don't give him ideas…" Goku said in a horrified tone.

They were all busy with the last minutes arrangement for the wedding when Elena shrieks filled the Salvatore house. Stefan rushed upstairs.

"There is dead body in our store room" Elena said as she hugged him tightly.

"What?" Lexi said, shocked.

Elena pointed at a black garbage bag containing a human figure inside.

Caroline gasped.

Stefan swallowed as he slowly walked toward the plastic bag.

He slowly opened it, reveling plastic cups placed in such a way they made a human body form.

Elena heard laughter behind her. She turned around and spotted her husband and her twin sons laughing hysterically at her.

"Damn it !" she exhaled.

"This was not funny…" Elena said in a tough tone.

"You should have seen your face" Damon said laughing at her.

"When is this gonna stop? It's been 16 years now…Why aren't you over that?" Elena growled in frustration and embarrassment.

"Dead body..huh…" Lexi said as she too started laughing now.

Elena was reading a book when he entered.

"Zoey is with the boys…playing" he said.

She didn't answer. She was still mad.

"Oh..Come on..honey…It was just a prank" Damon said sitting next to her on bed.

She didn't reply and tried to concentrate on her book.

He nuzzled her neck , she didn't react. Although he could feel her heart speed up. He smirked. After 20 years of being together , middle school, high school ,college and now married for 9 years he still had that affect on her.

She wanted to stop him but her body carved him.

She was so mad at him and yet here he go again making her love him all over again.

He threw her book and got on top of arms were around her , the next second. He kissed her gently and softly. She knotted her fists in his shirt, pulling him harder against her. He groaned softly, low in his throat, and then he pressed her against himself, and they rolled over on the bed, still kissing.

Have I ever told you that I love you?" She said as she looked into his eyes.

"On occasion during your hormonal stages while you were also yelling that you hated me," Damon chuckled as he moved her hair away from her eyes.

"But you know that I love you, right?"She asked.

"I do, and I love you, too; with all my heart" he replied.

Damon likes watching her as she sleeps, as the moonlight plays against her tanned skin, making her seemingly glow. He wouldn't miss that sight for anything in the world.

His life was perfect with her on his side. He almost lost her two years ago , but maybe God or whatever was out their knew he wouldn't be able to breathe without her in this world , Maybe that was why she was okay,healthy,safe in his arms, sleeping soundly.

As he pressed his lips against the woman's lips, sleeping in his arms he couldn't believe how much she meant to him,he loved her more than anything and he would do anything to make her smile.

"You're my other half, my bestfriend and the love of my life…I love you" he whispered as he looked ,adoring her.

"I love you too" she whispered back as she snuggled closer to him
