Damon's P.O.V
"You want me to do what!" I was staring at my brother like he belongs from another dimension which is kind of true if you think about this whole time travel dimension he came from but still. "Please tell me you didn't just suggest me to be friends with Pluto Lockwood!"
My brother sighed before he tried to explain his plan again. "You killed Mason in my past, it was unnecessary and not to forget brutal thing you did."
I tried to protest but he held his hand up to stop me. "Let me finished first."
I relented with scowl on my face. "You messed it up by killing Mason, which led to all that crap we had to deal with afterwards."
My irritation grew ten folds while I waited for those dreaded word that I knew is about to come out of his mouth. "So maybe it will be in our best interest to start things on friendly terms with Mason this time around."
I tried to keep my composure but it didn't help when Lexi Enzo and Ric started laughing. "Come on Damon." Enzo tried to contain his laughter. "If anyone can be pals with him it's you."
My eyes narrowed at each of their amused faces. "I'm glad that you guys find this entertaining." Getting up from the couch and looking at each and everyone of them. "You guys want to make new friends, you do it yourself."
With that I left, ignoring my brother's pleas for me to come back.
"Idiots!" I muttered under my breath as I hopped in my car to see my girl.
Upon arriving I was glad that John was not at home. Even though we now have an understanding he still flinches whenever I'm around his daughter. It doesn't bother me much but Elena gets uncomfortable being stuck in middle of me and her dad.
I made myself comfortable at her bed while I waited for her to finish shower. A part of me wants to join her but I don't want her to see my sour mood right away, so I waited with my trusty companion, her stuffed bear. Mr. Bear who has witnessed all my visits and sleepovers in this room. "How can they expect me to be friends with that lethal species?" I asked Mr. bear like he is going to share his wisdom with me.
My mind was still miffed about this whole 'let's be friends' plan when I heard Elena coming out. "Damon!" she gasped but smiled as she saw me laying spread on her bed. She came near me still wet from her shower in nothing but plush pink towel that clung to her body.
In a flash I grabbed her and pulled her in my arms, my tongue darted out to lick the stray drops of water from her neck trickling down her face.
"Uhh!" She shivered as I prepped kisses all over her neck and shoulder but before I can take that offending towel off her body she pulled my face for kiss but stopped when she looked into my eyes. "What happened?" She asked me in a worried tone.
So much for trying to distract my mind. "Your face gave you away, my cute vampire. "she told me. I huffed and wrapped my arms around her. "I am not cute, more like devilishly handsome."
She laughed and leaned in to kiss me but stopped before it got heated. "Okay, I will remember that now tell me what's the matter?"
So I told her everything and she listened to me patiently without any interruption. After I was done venting about this ridiculous plan Elena looked at me nervously. "What?" I asked when She went quite on me.
She sighed before she get up from my lap and went to her closet. I watched intently as her nakedness slowly was getting covered up. She slipped in white bra and panties before she picked a simple green dress to pull over her body.
She flopped down besides me while still in deep thought. After few seconds of silence I grew impatient so I held her face to stare in her eyes. "Can you please tell me what is going inside this pretty head of yours?"
She smiled and then held my hands in hers. "Okay so don't get mad but I think Stefan is right, it's in our best interest if Mason is in friendly terms with us."
My eyes widen but she put her hand on my mouth before I can say anything. "Look I know why you are hesitant or against about this plan, but think about it if we need to prepare to deal with Klaus we will need all the help we can get."
She withdrew her hand when she saw my face unclenched and continued. "Beside, it will benefit us in the long run if we have someone to connect us with werewolves and Mason can be that link."
I was quiet for a while as I processed all this and she let me be as she held me in her arms while we laid on her small bed. "How is it that when Stefan said the same things it's sounded ridicules, while you managed to make sense of the same ridiculous plan."
She smirked and leaned in to kiss me. "It's because Stefan can't do this." To prove her point she climbed on top of me while pulling off my shirt. She kissed me passionately while her hands roamed over my naked chest.
Before Elena, I was never into sweet innocent make out. I liked direct approach with my conquest. It was all one night stands, sometimes hunt but being with Elena makes me want to explore all the benefit of being a sweet & caring boyfriend.
She moaned as I nipped her bottom lip before suckling on it, her nails lightly scratched my chest making me groan against her lips.
We were really getting into heavy make out session when I heard a car stop outside her house. Thanks to my supernatural speed by the time front door opened Elena and I were sitting on couch pretending to watch movie.
Although Elena's face was flushed, she tried her best to compose herself as we saw John staring at us with an unpleasant expression on his face. "Damon?" he said my name with distaste. "How long have you been here?"
What he meant was how long we had been taking advantage of this empty house but I could sense his discomfort to ask us directly.
The answer was at the tip of my tongue, threatening to roll off, but I wouldn't dare embarrass my girlfriend, "Actually I came to meet you."
John's face turned from suspicion to surprise in seconds. "Me? What do you want from me?"
I smirk and motioned for him to sit down. "Well, the gang wants to make friends with Mason Lockwood and they left me to deal with it so I can avoid my inner temptation to kill him." John made face at the mention of killing but didn't interrupt me. "I have a plan but first I need you to do something for me."
His frown grew deeper.
"So what do you want from me?" he asked still confused about his part in this plan.
I casually wrapped my arm around his daughter before I told him about his part in the act. "You are going to get wolfs bane for me and fill in Richard Lockwood about plan before party."
As expected both Gilbert stared at me with confusion for few seconds then finally Elena asked. "What party?"
I smile as I took out my phone and made a call I never thought I would in my lifetime. She picked it after few rings.
"What do you want Damon?"
My smile grew at Caroline's disgruntled tone. "Hello Blondie, I was wondering will you help my girlfriend to throw a surprise birthday party for me?"
As predicted my ear drums were bombarded with a loud squeal from other end followed by yes and then she asks.
"Wait a minute, if you know about the party, how's it going to be a surprise? Beside…" I cut her ramblings as I told her.
"Caroline, you get to plan an awesome party, I get to act all surprised, it's a win win."
I hung up after I told her to regroup at boarding house. Then turned around to watch confusion etched on Elena's face. "Damon your birthday comes in June?" understanding her confusion I hurriedly explained. "Look I know that Katherine had warned Mason about us before she came back to Mystic Falls and since Katherine went M.I.A on him, he won't meet us alone willingly."
John nodded his head but still looked confused. "That still doesn't explain why you need to throw yourself a fake surprise birthday party?"
I knew he won't help me unless I reveal my less than diabolical plan to him. "The reason is that since I'm member of founding family and secret council most of town people will attend this party and Mason won't suspect a thing about this ambush, neither he will be able to make any kind of excuse."
John looked impressed even when he tried to not show it on his face.
Few minutes later Elena and I were driving back to boarding house when she told me in a determined voice. "We are going for road trip this summer holidays, just you and me." I was taken aback with her upcoming plan. "Umm why?" she smirked and kissed my cheeks. "Because I know that's how my boyfriend would want to celebrate his birthday."
My heart swelled with love for this girl who knows me inside out. With content smile I told her. "You're amazing girlfriend, Elena Gilbert."
She smiled, her doe eyes glancing at me with love. "I know and don't you forget it." I started laughing at her cheekiness and relished in the fact that she is truly my perfect match in every sense.

Elena's P.O.V
We had to plan a party within such a short notice but we knew if anyone could pull it off is Caroline Forbes. "Stefan! I need flowers in centre surrounded by candles! Can you please do exactly as I tell you to do!" poor Stefan flinched but hurriedly did what he had been told.
Bonnie, Lexi and I giggle while we saw Care bossing the guys around.
She screeched when she saw Enzo and Rick sipping drinks from bar. "For heaven sake I asked you to set the bar not to drink it down! Lexi where is your boyfriend? "
Lexi literally looked scared as she answered. "He went to get cake." Care sighs in relief as she crossed out something on her clipboard.
We tried to finish with black balloons while I laughed inside as I imagined Damon's horrified expression when he'll see all these decoration for his fake party. I think Bonnie was also thinking same when she said "I don't know about you guys but Damon will certainly be surprised to see all this."
We silently giggled while Lexi added. "Shocked will be more accurate term for him. He will be horrified and curse himself for this stupid plan."
Suddenly Enzo sat beside Bonnie and whispered so only we can hear. "I think he planed this party to punish Stefan as payback for 'let's be friends with Mason', idea." We all glanced at Stefan who was now standing on ladder while Caroline instructed him how to hang drapes. "Caroline is his secret weapon against Stefan that's why he called her to plan this party."
We tried to not laugh as blue drapes slipped from his shocked hands, he angrily glanced in our direction. "Oops looks like he heard you." I told Enzo who then smile and waved at him.
He huffed in frustration went on with the task in hand. We busy ourselves before Caroline saw us chatting. When the arrangements were finally according to her demands Caroline instructed us to get dressed.
I went in Damon's room and saw short black dress laid on bed with note attached on it.
'Wear this dress for me.
D.S xoxo.'
A smile formed on my face. I quickly took shower and then called Caroline and Bonnie to help me with my hair and makeup.
"I must admit Damon has great taste in dresses." Care complimented as I twirled in front of the mirror. The dress fitted me like a second skin, enhancing my figure and making me look desirable.
I turned around to admire my friends dresses. Caroline was wearing yellow silk dress while Bonnie wore white dress with blue flower pattern on it. After finishing our last touch up we went outside to go downstairs but stopped when we heard noise coming from Katherine's and Nadia room. "Looks like she is causing trouble again." Bonnie told us as we reached near her room.
I guess she was right because Stefan and Enzo were both standing near her door while Nadia and Lexi were blocking the windows trapping Katherine in between them.
She saw us and almost made hissing sound as she tried to leave room. "Look!" she only looked at Stefan. "If you want Mason to join this craziness, fine do what you want but keep me out of this."
She tries to move pass between them but found her path blocked by Enzo. "Now, Now, I thought you were going to play nice. Where is your team spirit?" We almost laughed at her scowling face as she glared at Enzo.
"Mother please listen to them they only want to help us." Her daughter pleaded with her and for second Katherine sighed before she turned her attention towards Stefan again. "Okay fine I will let Mason confronts me once you told him everything but I need guarantee that you will save me from his venomous bite!"
Stefan nodded his head. "You have my word. No harm is going to come to you as long as you do just like we told you to." Katherine glowered at him so he added. "That is, If you want to survive."
I stared at Katherine as she pondered on this. We all knew if Katherine Pierce knows about anything, is how to survive.
So it wasn't surprising at all when she nodded her head and angrily sat down on bed. Lexi clapped her hand as she told Nadia "Well now that we know mommy is on board how about you dress up for party!" she swayed her hips but Nadia looked uncertain as she glanced at her mother. "I don't know maybe I should stay here with her."
Katherine tried to hide but I could see she is touched by her daughter concerns, even if she is too proud to admit.
Lexi on other hand was not taking no for and answer. "Come on, your mother doesn't need babysitter, beside it will do you some good if you enjoy your life without worrying about her." Nadia seems to like the idea about party but she still looked hesitant as she stared at Katherine. "Go enjoy yourself." Katherine told her in an authoritative tone. "Besides I won't run away from only place that guarantee my survival."
That seems to put her mind at ease. She followed Lexi to her room to get dressed. While rest of us made our way towards parlour that was filled with guests.
"Where is Damon?" I asked Stefan, he answers in hush tone. "He is arriving later with Rick after all it's his surprise birthday party." I nodded as we mingle with the crowd and greet our guests. Bonnie and Enzo were standing with me while Caroline and Stefan were talking with Liz.
Caroline was chatting with her mother when she hurriedly grabbed Stefan and brought him to us. "Elena, inform Damon now, Lockwood's just arrived." Sure enough I saw John greeting mayor and his wife as Mason tagged along behind them.
I quickly text Damon and then turned towards our new guest as we heard Stefan. "Everyone put your best faces on. It's show time."
############
Damon's P.O.V
"Are you ready to get surprised? " Rick asked me teasingly while we waited for the text. I rolled my eyes at him. "As long Elena wears that dress I bought and the cake is made of bourbon I don't care about anything."
He nods in agreement and then the much awaited text comes. "Come Rick time to get to my 'surprise' birthday party."
We arrived at the boarding house and as expected the moment I went inside everyone blessed with the ability to speak bombarded my eardrums."Surprise!" Elena was first one to reach me and I felt warm lips connect with mine.
She beamed at me and that black dress was making her glow more than usual. "Now this is what I call a pleasant surprise." She blushed as my eyes shamelessly roamed over her beautiful, sexy body.
Guys tapped on my back while my brother hugged me as he whisper in my ear. "Though it's fake I am still glad that we are celebrating you brother."
His genuine words touched me more than I can express. I turned around to see parlour decorated in black and blue two of my favourite colours.
I hugged Blondie in pretence to compliment her. "You certainly know how to throw party even fake one." She smiled as she told me. "Fake or not, I drilled poor Stefan into my personal slave at your request, so you better appreciate our hard work."
With slight nod I let Elena pull me towards cake. To my surprise I can taste bourbon in it. I saw Lee winking at me as he cheered birthday song with everyone.
After that the party was on full swing. For most part I danced with Elena who looked hands down gorgeous in this room full people. "I can't wait to take this dress off of you." She shivered at my tone and moved closer to me. "How about first we deal with our special guest and then we can celebrate anyway you want."
I looked towards Mason and sure enough his guard was down. He enjoyed drinking while eyeing Nadia who was standing with Lexi. "Oh, Oh looks like he is switching to another Petrova girl."
Elena stared at him and gasped in surprise. "You better hurry up before he falls in between mother / daughter triangle."
I kissed her forehead as I signal John who hurriedly took Richard and Mason to our library. "Wish me luck babe." She gave me a chaste kiss as I make my way towards Stefan. "Come brother its truth time."
He smiled at Blondie and he followed me, I glanced at Enzo, Ric and Lee tagging behind us after gulping down their drinks.
The second we stepped inside we saw John and Richard distracting Mason with Salvatore archives. Stefan cleared his throat to gain their attention.
For a politician Richard really knows how to act surprise. "Ah Damon, we were just looking at your family archives, by the way this is my younger brother Mason." He mentioned towards Mason who tried to maintain his composer.
I stepped towards him as I held out my hand. "I saw you at kids farewell party. I am Damon Salvatore and this is my brother Stefan." I motioned towards my brother who shook hand with him.
"Um, this is Enzo, Alaric and Lee." I introduced other guys.
Mason must have sensed that he is out number in this room, he grimaced and said. "I remember seeing you all in that party and Damon I heard great things about you."
He tried to smile but it didn't reach his eyes as this whole situation is intimidating him. "Good things about me? That's strange because I am dick." He laughed nervously at my joke and then looked around for escape. "Umm, well its nice meeting you nevertheless." He tried to move towards door. "I think I should get a drink for myself."
As expected he hurriedly made his exist but hit by an invisible barrier. "What the…?"
He pounded his fist few times while we all waited for him to realize this is a trap. It only took few minutes when he turned around his calm face contorted with rage. "Let me out!" he growled at us.
"Oops! Looks like I forget to mention few things." I stepped little closer. "Me and my brother are vampire and so is Enzo and Lee, Rick here is Hunter and we also have two badass witches outside who helped us to trap you here with us."
He glanced at his brother who looked worried with this exchange. "Mason you need to calm down and listen none of these people want to harm you." He tried to reason with his brother.
"You knew about them!" He accused his brother.
Seeing his eyes changing shade I nodded at Rick who quickly shoot him with wolfs bane darts putting him down for few minutes. "Hurry up guys chain him up." Rick told us, Enzo and I carried him to the chair while Stefan and Lee chain him up. I stared at John. "Go bring Katherine here and make sure no one sees her." He left while we waited for him to wake up.
############
Mason's P.O.V
My insides were on fire but slowly they dimmed as I gain conscious. I was still In Salvatore library but now chained to a chair still surrounded by those who trapped me in first place.
I started at each and everyone of them with hatred including my traitor brother who is friends with these monsters but then my eyes landed on her, the love of my life. "Katherine? You came to rescue me?" my voice sounded hopeful and Katherine is not monster like them she loves me and going to break my curse.
"God he sounds even more pathetic than I used to sound back in my human days." I started at Damon who was rolling his eyes at me. "So who is going to enlighten this Moron?" he looked at his brother and Katherine.
Stefan brought Katherine towards me and then told her. "It's only fair if you tell him everything, after all it's your mess." She looked uncomfortable as she asked. "Why me, I mean you guys promised me protection."
Damon grabbed her arms and moved her to stand in front of me. "Fess up Kat or I will throw you to dogs or better at him in next full moon." He winked at my direction and I was baffled at this exchanged. "Katherine please, tell me what is going on?"
She flinched at my sound and then she started talking. "It was me who triggered your curse Mason, I send that guy after you because I needed the moon stone and werewolf in exchange of my freedom."
It felt like my world got crashed, I was just a pawn. My life was ruined by the girl I love... "You bitch! You ruined my life and you always claimed to love me."
Damon scoffed at this. "Dude Katherine Pierce doesn't love anyone but herself and your life is not the only thing she ruined, my name is in that list as well."
I stared at Damon and beneath that bravado I can sense truth in his words.
I stared at Katherine who is moving away from me. "Why?" She tried to open her mouth but no sound came because she saw me struggling with my chains. Apparently Damon saw this too. "Lee get her out of here."
In a flash Katherine was gone and then he turned towards his brother. "Stefan fill him in now before he kills someone or himself!" he screamed at him in frustration.
Stefan stepped in front of me and stared at me with his kind green eyes. "Mason I knew what you are going through but if you want to make sure that no harm cames to you or your family then you have to calm down and listen to me."
I stared at both brothers and for being my mortal enemies, somehow I feel I can trust these people. Damon saw this trust on my face and then he kind of smiled at me as he broke my chain and then tapped his brother's shoulder. "Do your thing brother, tell our new friend everything."
Those words were not to mock me but they seems sincere as I listened to everything Stefan had to say. Since forever I knew these people were my enemies but today they become my friends.
