Also Thanks to my readers who follow or favourite this story.

''Today's chapter touches my heart and even though I felt Devon's pain I couldn't help but sympathise with Ella. Something like that happened with me and I hope that unlike me she find it in herself to admit what she truly feels.''

It's been hour since he got this review and yet he couldn't take his eyes off these few lines.

What does she meant by knowing how Devon's feels? She also sympathise with Ella!

He shake his head and finished his bourbon to clear his mind.

As far as he remember that night it was him who's heart got broken and yet he can felt similar pain from Elena's review.

He can bet on his life she had tears while she send this review. He even wrote her to share her experience but so far no reply came.

''This is not the response I was hoping for.'' He told himself out loud.

His gaze went back on screen as he received another review saying how much angry they were with Ella.

It's seems except Elena none of his readers like what Ella says in this chapter.

He search again for Elena's reply but found none.

''Damn It!'' grabbing his keys he closed his laptop and moved towards door to see Elena himself.

He needs answers and he need them now, so with that in mind he yanked open his door and to his surprise he came face to face with girl who was reason of this restless situation. ''Elena?''

Brown and blue shocked eyes stare at each other, both of them unsure to say anything.

''You were going somewhere?'' Elena finally asked breaking this long silence.

''Um, no it's okay.'' He was not going to admit his true destination so while he ushered her inside the most believable answer came to him. ''I was just heading towards bar but what are you doing here?''

Elena didn't reply but his notice was shifted to her attire, she came to his house at this hour dressed in her black silk night gown. Her silk robe was tied loosely around her waist making him guess she must have left home in haste to meet him.

''Was this because of my chapter?'' He thought to himself while waiting for her to answer his question.

''Elena?'' He tried again but instead answering him she walked ahead and went inside living room towards his mini bar.

Guessing she needs liquid courage to start this conversation he stopped her midway. ''Let me get you drink, you just go and make yourself comfortable.'' He mentioned towards couch.

She nodded with small smile and went to sit down while he prepared their drinks.

When he returned he saw her on couch staring at fire place but her eyes seemed far away.

Approaching he placed glass in front of her to gain her attention. ''Here you go.''

''Thanks.'' She told him while taking her glass.

He then sat down beside her as they drink quietly for few minutes but once silence stretched out Damon decides to break it.

''Elena?'' Hearing his concern voice her eyes left the burning fire to meet his stare. ''You know you can tell me anything?'' He lean closer and grabbed her hand.

Elena stared down to see their joint hand before her eyes shifted to his face.

She can see he looked at her with most earnest gaze , those beautiful blue eyes were slowly forcing to break her resolve and confess everything in seconds.

She sigh and fidgeted under his intense stare. 'If only it was so easy to say, but we can't always say what really in our hearts.''

Elena words make him gulped, maybe she finally figured out he is author of that story.

From looks of it if what he suspect is true then Is Elena here to break his heart or to accept his love?

Before he can think more reasons he felt her head on his shoulder.

"You know I only accepted scholarship for my parents. I was so scared to bring change in my life that when it was me who got selected for that scholarship I almost refused it but my parents were so happy and proud of me that I couldn't refuse it.''

She sighed and Damon felt surprised because he was not expecting this turn of conversations, he felt unsure so he remained quiet while still holding her.

''I never told you before but that first week was living hell for me. Many of our classmates but mostly Trisha and her gang bullied me to no end and rest of them were so scared to stand up for me, things they say or do to humiliate me, oh Damon! There are no words to explain how small they used to make me feel. That week everyday after school I used to cry quietly in my room while in front of Aunt Jenna and uncle Alaric I pretended to smile and make up story how happy I was so that they and my parents can stay happy.''

Hearing her soft cry makes him tear up from inside but he remain strong and wrapped his arms around her as he felt her tears running down against his shirt ,their wetness were like acid to him.

''I'm so sorry that you gone through all that and you never told me these details before .. '' He finally told her but she cut him halfway through his apology. ''You don't need to apologise for them, in fact I never thanked you what you did for me.''

Cupping his cheeks she tenderly stroked his skin. ''Your friendship is reason why I survive that place, It give me strength to be woman I am today.''

Damon heart thunders against his rib. He was glad for her gratitude but why now she is telling him all this?

''Hey, listen to me I am and will always be just your friend but please don't give me credit for your success.''

To his surprise Elena didn't agree with him because she snapped. ''Don't tell me you are just my friend! There is saying that behind every successful man their is woman but do you know what I think about which woman is successful? ''

He stared at her in confusion so she continued. ''The woman who has gentle and kind soul like you in her life, who protects her, nurtured her , who think of her as his equal and stand beside her through everything.''

To say Damon was touched by her statement wont be a lie. He felt respected because she respects him so much.

''Elena why are you telling me all this?'' He finally asked without caring if her answer will broke or mend his heart forever.

Sure enough Elena's face got sad as she dropped her hand from his face only to grab both his hands in hers.

''Damon you are not just only my best friend but also my hero.''

She bit her lips as she think hard about her next words carefully while she remains oblivious to the fact that man in front of her is slowly losing all his hope.

''Being with you in that school, your friendship changed my life for better, I was even more protected but for some people I was still unworthy trash that shouldn't belong there and they used to remind me my place whenever they got chance.''

He felt few tears dropped on their joint hands but inside rage erupted inside him like hot molten Volcano. ''What! Elena you never told me anything! I will...''

He didn't know what he was going to do after all these years later but he never got far enough because soft hands grabbed his arms uttering one thing that stopped him when she pleaded desperately. ''Damon stop! Please hear me out before I loose my will.''

He sat back because there was certain kind of pain, both in her voice that matches her eyes.

''They start saying stuff that I am charity case for you, that you took pity on small town girl and took her in his friend's circle .''

Elena saw him shaking his head in denial. ''Please don't tell me you actually believe them?''

By this time Elena's tears were falling rapidly which was enough to answer his question and in that moment he felt angry at her. ''How could you believe that rubbish! Have I ever treated you like charity case!''

Instead of answering him she cried more so he get up and start pacing angrily.

''I can't believe this fucking shit! Not only you let them insult you whenever they get chance but also let them insult our friendship and not even once you consider to tell me!''

Hearing this her own anger flares high as she stood up to face him. ''You don't understand! It was me who was getting bullied! It was me who had to hear these awful things! You already did so much for me so I thought I can handle few back lashes on my own and except for one time I never let their words to have any affect on me.''

They both were breathing hard, both in lots of pain yet still Damon registers her last words.

''Which time?'' he inquired to Elena who was wiping her tears away. ''Huh?'' she stared at him in confusion so he repeated himself again clearly.

''You said there was only one time their words affected you, I want to know which time?''

Even though he asked this question deep down he knew an answer before she admitted anything.

''Homecoming.'' She answered him in barely whisper but he heard her clearly.

''Homecoming party .'' He asked again just to make sure and he was not even remotely surprised when she nodded her head.

His mind was getting numb because suddenly so much about that night is making sense to him and yet he can't make sense of anything at all.

He stared at her innocent face and suddenly her review came into his mind.('Today's chapter touches my heart and even though I felt Devon's pain I couldn't help but sympathise with Ella. Something like that happened with me and I hope that unlike me she find it in herself to admit what she truly feels.'')

He remember that night but for first time he can see that night through her point of view. He remember her outside with Sarah and other cheerleaders.

Sarah was Trisha's right hand and vice cheer captain and together they made Elena's life living hell that first few days before his late arrival.

Now he can understand why she said those stuff. If what Elena says is true then Sarah insulted our friendship making her feel small and all this while she was alone defending herself.

''Damon please talk to me.'' His mind snapped back to present.

He stared at her in surprise because they were still standing there in silence for few minutes and yet he crossed years of misunderstanding and pain in these last few moments.

''Damon I am really sorry, I shouldn't have told you all this.'' She didn't know why he suddenly stopped reacting and that was scaring her more than his anger.

''Lets just forget about it okay. I, I am sorry but I will leave and we can forget all about tonight.''

In desperate attempt to fix her mistake she was about to head towards door when strong hands grabbed her arms pulling her body towards him. ''Don't!'' She shiver at command of his voice.

''Damon.'' But her voice got muffled when soft lips descend on her kissing her most intense and passionate way.

Elena couldn't understand what happened and she found she didn't care one bit because in next second she was kissing him back as passionately as he was kissing to her.

Damon moaned when she licked his lips begging for entrance and once their mouth parted they both moaned in union when they have taste of each other.

Elena hands were roaming around his back as she tried to bring him more closer while Damon held her face making it impossible to break away.

Still their need to breathe couldn't be ignored for any long as both of them reluctantly parted for much needed air.

Damon watched mesmerised at her lips because none of his fantasies of kissing her came close to their reality of first kiss.

Meanwhile Elena felt what it's truly means to be on high. She still processing that Damon kisses her, that she finally got kiss from her best friend.

At word best friend the haze was vanished and panicked settle in. She just kissed her best friend!

''Damon we kissed!''

He smirk at her and pucker his cute lips to kiss her again when he noticed her panicked eyes.

In that moment he knew what to do to chase her doubts and fears away.

He cautiously stepped closer and bring her into his arms. ''Do you know why I kissed you?'' he asked her gently and when she shake her head he kissed on top of her head.

''I kissed you because it's about damn time we kissed each other! Plus not to forget its long over due because we wanted to kiss each others on Homecoming party too but we lost our chance first to that stupid crowning and because of that misunderstanding which was even more stupid because it took so many years of our lives.''

Elena couldn't understand one bit of what he was talking about. ''What misunderstanding?''

He then led her towards his table where he opened his laptop while she watched him curiously.

Few seconds later he made her sit down on his chair in front of the screen while he leaned against table in front of her. ''I finally understand your fascination with Point of view.''

He then pointed towards his laptop and Elena finally saw content of his screen.

''Oh My God!'' she gasps because in front of her was account of D.L.E and document of chapters of (one sided love).

For next few minutes Damon watched as Elena checked out his profile, his document even her reviews and his replies.

After that she closed the screen but still didn't face him.

''You heard me and Sarah that night and thought I meant those words?'' She asked in disbelief.

''Yes and that's why I never tried to kissed you just like you believe their cruel words and never kissed me again.'' He tried to explain her.

He leaned towards her and make her face him, forcing their eyes to see their hidden feelings again. ''We both were victims of misunderstanding that ruin our so many years in which we can be together and happy.'' They both can feel the ache of losing that precious time to misunderstanding.

''If you are angry at me for writing this story then so be it because I won't apologise for writing our story that finally brings the truth out.''

Before he knew it Elena leapt in to his arms kissing him so hard that take his breath away. ''Never apologise for writing our story.'' She told him once their lips were parted. ''In fact I am thankful that you wrote our story that gave me courage to come here tonight.''

Wiping her tears away he kissed her again but this time gently. ''I love you Elena.'' He told her against her lips before capturing them again.

This time when they parted to breathe Damon didn't leave her skin instead his kisses were continued on her slender neck.

''Damon.'' She moaned his name to gain his attention which was right now more focused on her bare shoulder as her robe suddenly got disappear. ''Hmm?'' he acknowledges her while making his way towards her cleavage.

''Damon I have to say something.'' She felt him smiling against her skin.

Lifting his head she saw his blue orbs shining in excitement. ''Yess?''

She blushed the way he stretched that word in anticipation.

''Damon speaking of Homecoming it reminds me of good parts too, when...'' He finished my sentence thinking same as me. ''Good part was when we danced together, when we almost kissed.''

Damon kissed her again sweetly but she pulled away and looked at him with shy eyes.

''Dance with me.'' She told him and to her surprise Damon opened his laptop and play same song from his play list.

He then make them stand up and led her to in middle of the room.

They both dance closer, even more closer then they did years ago. Elena laid her head on his shoulder feeling content to be there for rest of her life while Damon thought same as he held her in his arms and thought he can live happily like this forever.

Just like last time Damon lifted her face and he leaned down to kiss her but Elena twirl in his arms only to come back and kiss him passionately.

The dance was stopped as new dance began only it was more sensual then before. They kissed each other moving their face from one angle to another but it was not close enough for them so Damon lifts her in his arms and walked her towards wall.

Elena who was burning from inside out couldn't help herself, In one swift moment she separate herself only to ripped his shirt while breaking every button from top to bottom before taking his shirt off him.

Before he knew it Elena was kissing his chest while her hands explore his abs.

Needing to gain control of this situation Damon then lift Elena in his arms again and rushed her to wall near fire place.

He groaned when Elena attacked his lips while hitching her leg around his waist bringing him closer to her core.

They heard tearing sound as her gown slit opened from where she lifts her leg making it easier for them to grind on each other.

Damon grabbed her hips for leverage while she hold on to his shoulder as her other hand reached behind and found something to hold on to as they both make out against fire place that was doing nothing to fuel their already burning desires.

Elena pulled away as she pushed her clothed core against him and Damon head rolled back in pleasure of feeling so close to her.

Grabbing his face she finally uttered those words passionately while still joined in lovers embrace. ''I love you.''

Damon's head fall on her neck and she felt wetness on her skin when he whispers. ''Say it again.''

Her heart grew more for this wonderful man who was her friend, her protector and now love of her life...''I love you Damon Salvatore from first day when you came up to me as I sat accidentally on your seat. I love you then Damon Salvatore and I love you more and more now.''

He kissed her skin so she added. ''You will write Ella loves Devon too and I want you to give them ending where they both live happily ever after.''

Lifting his face to see her Damon laughed at her cute demand. ''What ending do you mean?'' He asked her teasingly.

''Well they dated few months before they got married, moved into beautiful house and over years they have four children and a cat.''

She saw Damon wrinkling his face. ''I don't want cat, I want dog.'' Elena laughs while shaking her head. ''We are having cat.'' She told him with hint of finality making him pout. ''I want Dog.''

Before he can plead his case any further, Elena gave him mischievous look. ''Let's settle this maturely, shall we?'' with that she slipped her night gown off her body revealing herself just in black panties she was wearing.

She then winked and start walking and led Damon to his room who was following her like he was hypnotised.

Once they reached he closed his door behind and reached out to grab this beautiful minx in his arms. ''So when are we going to start living this happily ever after?'' He asked while nipping her ear.

She turned around and pushed him on bed before straddling his hip. Her eyes were glowing with love and happiness as she replied. ''Now.''

With that one word he pulls her to capture her lips.

Soon kissing each other was not enough so they undress each other and as Damon flipped her beneath him Elena kissed him with love and reverence. ''Tell me this love will stay forever?'' She breathed against his lips.

He lift his face to look at her innocent doe like eyes. ''I will love you forever.''

Kissing her glistening eyes Damon finally slipped inside her making him clutched his shoulder hard as she gasp against his mouth. ''Damon!''

There love making was both gentle yet passionate at times because it was reunion of soulmate who despite being in each other lives for so long had just found each other.

''I love you so much baby.'' Damon moaned in her ear while he continued to thrust inside her, hitting that special pleasure spot ever now and then.

Elena has happy tears in her eyes as Damon filled her in each and every way he can and somehow by the time they shattered in each other arms their bodies were flushed together as they mingle their soul and become one and whole moaning each other name like their prayer got heard and wish came true.

Both lovers collapsed in exhaustion aftermath of their love making.

Elena was draped on Damon's chest while she felt him tenderly rubbing her naked back.

Once her breathing got normal she looked up and met with his intense, loving gaze.

''Damon, what D.L.E stands for?'' Damon looked surprised because he was not expecting this question to be first thing she asked after they make love.

Bringing her closer he caress her cheeks. ''Have a guess.'' Elena thought for few seconds before figuring those initial out. ''Devon love Ella?'' She answered triumphantly with cheeky smile.

Damon laughed and quickly kiss her lips before telling her right answer. ''You guessed close. L stands for love but D is your one and only Damon and E stands for my sweet and not so smart Elena.''

Elena pouted for guessing it wrong and being called not so smart but then again she couldn't even figure out that (one sided love) was actually her own story.

''Aw baby don't pout! Beside it's not your fault I am such an awesome writer.'' He teased her more making her blush.

''Bonnie must have helped you.'' But he shakes his head. ''She only helped me making my account and explaining how to upload documents and chapters but I did rest of work.'' He told her proudly.

Elena ponder over his answer and then her face got serious. ''Then it means that you have been expressing your love to me for past one month?''

She waited and when he nodded his head she burst into tears and hugged him tightly.

''Elena loves Damon too!'' she kisses his heart before staring at his handsome face.

''Damon loves Elena so much and he will always love her. ' He then told her again, his own tears mingling with her as he holds her tightly in his arms while both lovers revel in this loving moment.

This time their love confession was from mind, body, heart and soul.

After all who can love them as much as these two innocent best friends do.
