Disclaimer: I do not own anything related to The Vampire Diaries, TV show or books. However I decided to have a little play around with the characters (I would definitely like to play with Damon).

The story has been merged with Breaking the Curse - Bloodlines.

The following chapters from Breaking the Curse - Bloodlines are:

1 - 36

2 - 37

"It's only a matter of time before the Travelers head towards Mystic Falls and begin to look for the doppelgangers. So if I were you and should you know who the doppelgangers are, I'd suggest you get them out of town pretty quickly." she said.

"Four people created the bloodlines." Ruby explained. "The Travelers have access to their blood. They don't need to know where the doppelgangers and Silas heir are."

"The Travelers will either be looking for Silas or the doppelgangers. If they find the prophesy has been triggered, they will lift the protection spell and they will try to kill them and the 'One'."

"You heard her, we need to move and fast." Damon said getting out his phone to call Elena who picked it up almost immediately. "I need you to pack." he told her. "We're leaving town today." he said.

Damon burst into the boarding house followed by a flustered Ric, to find Elena waiting for them in the parlor, as Damon vamp-sped over to Elena and put his arms around her, much to both hers and Ric's bemusement.

"What's going on Damon?" Elena asked, as Damon released her to the ground and tucked her hair behind her ear.

"The witch from New York just found Ric and me at the Grill." he told her. "If the Travelers find out you're pregnant, they'll try and kill the baby." he said, panic creeping into his voice.

"But I thought the pregnancy had fulfilled the prophesy." Elena frowned.

"I'm guessing the prophesy requires you to actually give birth to a healthy child." Damon told her.

"So why are we running?" Elena asked. "What makes you think they'll look here?"

"Word is already out on the street that a witch who used to belong to the Travelers visited a house in New Orleans belonging to the Originals." Damon explained. "She was found dead with the address in her pocket." he told her. "Everyone knows the Originals have been staying in Mystic Falls, making it a logical place to look." he said.

"So where do we go?" Elena asked, looking slightly uncomfortable.

"I've already been looking round at possible safe houses." Damon told her. "It has to be somewhere close to a hospital and within a short enough distance for Meredith to get just in case you go into labor." he said. "Richmond is far enough away but close enough for Meredith."

"So you've already been looking at places to rent there?" Ric asked.

"No, I'm buying it." Damon frowned. "I'm not throwing away good money on renting." he snorted. "The safe house needs to be big enough to secure everyone involved." he shrugged as he turned to Elena. "Is the smell of alcohol making you feel sick?" he asked.

"No, I like it now." Elena replied confused, not only by Damon's question, but by the sudden change in her body.

"Good." Damon smiled as he kissed her on the forehead and walked over to the wet bar to pour himself a drink. "Want one?" he asked Ric who nodded as Damon handed the drink over to Ric and poured himself another. "We need to head out to the lake house and then I'll go and check the house out the house in Richmond, make sure it's suitable for our needs, if it is, my people are already on it. A little compulsion might be needed to speed up the process, but hopefully we should be in there within a couple of days." he said.

"Suitable for your needs?" Ric frowned before he started to laugh.

"Not just mine and Elena's." Damon rolled his eyes. "Everyone who knows about this pregnancy needs to be able to go into hiding at the drop of a hat. If everyone has to hide at the same time, it needs to be big enough to hold the entire Scooby gang." he explained. "Although admittedly some sharing maybe required." he looked at Elena and winked before looking around the room in confusion. "Speaking of which, where did they all go?" he asked frowning.

"Matt had a shift at the Grill and Bonnie, Jeremy, Stefan and Caroline went to look through what's left of Doctor Martins grimoires and the book Emily gave them, to see if they can find out anything else." Elena told him. "Plus I wanted to sleep and I think Caroline needs her mind taking off the Klaus, Tyler situation." Elena shrugged.

Damon walked over to Elena, putting his drink down on the coffee table and taking her gently by the shoulder. "Well from now on I don't want you alone." he insisted. "I want you to be near either Bonnie or another vampire." he said as both Elena and Ric looked at each other in shock. "What?" he asked.

"You actually used her name?" Elena said, trying to suppress a laugh.

"Desperate times call for desperate measures." Damon smirked. "Right, I'll pack, you get the Scooby gang here. The Quarterback can stay at the Grill, someone needs to keep that place running." he said. "But we need the rest of the gang here pronto." he said before kissing Elena on the lips. "And call Meredith, we need to know the plans for the pregnancy going forward." he added as he headed upstairs to pack.

Ric frowned. "Is he okay?" he mouthed to Elena, who nodded in reply before picking up her phone and calling everyone in they needed to see for the second meeting of the day.

Half an hour later Stefan, Caroline, Jeremy and Bonnie were back at the boarding house, wondering what was going on. Meredith couldn't be there as she was in surgery, but she had managed to make an appointment to meet Damon and Elena at the hospital to discuss the plan for the pregnancy. Damon was stood in front of the fireplace in the parlor as the rest of the group amassed to see what the next crisis meeting was about.

Damon cleared his throat as everyone looked to him to wait for his announcement. "Quick version, the Travelers know an Original vampire has been questioning a witch who used to be part of their coven." he told them. "They'd already gone underground when Silas was released which means they might have an idea that the prophesy has been looked into." he said. "As the Originals have been living in Mystic Falls, that makes this place the number one target to ask questions and maybe to search for doppelgangers." he went on. "We know the appearance of the Petrova doppelganger was already known to Bennett witches, but the image of Silas wasn't. So we have to assume the same goes for the Travelers. But with Silas on the loose, they'll soon find out what he looks like. This means the doppelgangers need to go into hiding, along with those that are directly involved, meaning me, Ric and Bonnie. Any questions?" Damon asked.

Elena held her hand up. "What about Jeremy?" she asked. "I'm not leaving him."

"Fine, he can come too." Damon sighed.

"What about me?" Caroline asked.

"You are going to be our eyes and ears on the ground here." he told her. "I need you and the Quarterback to keep up with the gossip. Not too hard for you." Damon smirked as Caroline folded her arms and gave him a dirty look. "And your partner in crime works at the Grill. Prime position to look out for people who are new to town."

"Good." Caroline smiled. "I've got a graduation to plan."

"Also I'm going to ask your mom to keep an eye out for reports of large amounts of blood going missing across the country." Damon told her. "I'll get her to keep you updated and if there's anything unusual to report, give me a call." he said.

"What am I now, your secretary?" Caroline asked folding her arms as Damon looked at her pointedly. "Fine!" she huffed.

"Damon." Elena interrupted before Damon and Caroline got into an argument. "We won't all fit into the lake house. What do we do until the safe house is ready?" she asked.

"We're not all going to the lake house." Damon told her before looking to Stefan and Ric. "I want you two to go on a little field trip to New Orleans." he grinned pointing at them.

"Why?" Ric asked.

"Isn't that a little...dangerous?" Stefan added.

"It's probably the safest place to be right now." Damon explained. "The vampire in charge of the French Quarter in New Orleans is a guy called Marcel Gerard." Damon told them. "Apparently he's banned all the witches in New Orleans from practicing magic." he explained. "The last place the Travelers are going to be right now is New Orleans."

"So why do you want us to go there?" Ric repeated his previous question.

"Do you remember that dinner get together when we undaggered the rest of the Original family?" Damon asked Stefan who nodded. "Klaus and Elijah told us a story about another doppelganger." he said. "Her name was Tatia, and she'd already had a kid with some other guy. We need to know if Elijah and the rest of the Originals ever met the father. And if he did, why the hell he never told us that Stefan was his doppelganger." Damon sighed. "Also, Elijah knows where Katherine is. We need to talk to her. What did the father of her kid look like? These questions need to be asked. We need to know how many people are aware that Stefan is a doppelganger." he said.

"And?" Ric asked.

"Anyone that isn't an Original, Katherine or our Scooby gang who knows about this is a loose end that needs to be tied up." Damon simply said.

"Tied up?" Elena frowned as Damon nodded as he dragged a finger along his throat.

"Your going to kill them?" Jeremy looked at Damon angrily.

"Well, it depends who knows." Damon admitted. "We can't kill the Originals, and I trust they will keep our secret." he said. "I'd love to kill Katherine, but she is the walking cure and if we can make it through the next nine months, it might be possible that drinking her blood is a way to become human." he shrugged. "So we can't kill Katherine, although watching her being tortured by getting old and wrinkly is too amusing an opportunity to miss up." he grinned evilly. "I doubt anyone else does know, but we can't risk it."

Why do we both need to go?" Ric asked.

"Stefan is not on good terms with Klaus right now. This Marcel guy might be hostile,if he goes alone, he has no protection." Damon explained. "I can't send you alone Ric, the Originals think you're dead or that you're trying to kill them." he said. "With Stefan at your side, Elijah might be more...agreeable." he shrugged. "Hopefully by the time you've finished in New Orleans, the safe house will be ready, or we'll have word that we can move back to Mystic Falls." he said.

"What about me?" Jeremy asked.

"What about you?" Damon frowned.

"You're coming with us Jer." Elena interrupted. "Isn't he Damon." she added looking at Damon with a pointed stare.

"Yes." Damon grimaced. "You can keep Sabrina...occupied." he smirked.

"And school?" Ric frowned.

"Trust you to bring up school." Damon replied. "We can compel the grades whilst you home school them or...something." he shrugged.

"And my job?" Ric raised an eyebrow.

"We'll turn down the high school job and I'll hire you if you're that desperate." Damon rolled his eyes. "Anyone have any other questions?" his eyes scoured over the group, hoping nobody would say anything.

"Why don't you compel Katherine to forget you and Stefan?" Bonnie asked as Damon and Stefan looked at him with curiosity. "You can't kill her and it would kinda tie her up as a loose end." she suggested.

"I thought you didn't like compulsion." Damon frowned.

"I think I can make an exception in her case." Bonnie smirked.

"Sounds like a good idea to me." Damon grinned. "Do you think you and Jeremy can go in your car?" he asked Bonnie who looked at Jeremy and they both nodded before turning back to Damon.

"If we go now, we can head straight there." Bonnie said.

"Well maybe you should get going." Damon gestured his hand towards the door.

Bonnie sighed. "We might as well go and pack now and get out there as soon as we can." she said as she and Jeremy got up to leave.

"Can I hitch a ride?" Caroline asked.

"Sure." Bonnie replied as she waited for Caroline to join them before leaving.

Damon turned to Ric and Stefan."Ric, Stefan." Damon said. "Talk it over with Elijah, see what he says about compelling Katherine." he told them as they nodded. "Elena and I are off to see Meredith to discuss this little one." he smiled as he walked over to Elena and put his hand above her stomach, knowing not to touch the area where the baby would stir up emotions. "When we get back I need you two to be ready to head out to New Orleans." he told them as Elena stood up and Damon turned to her. "Let's go." he said as the headed out to the appointment.

Half an hour later Damon and Elena found themselves in Dr Meredith Fell's office at the hospital ready to discuss the pregnancy. Meredith had come armed full of leaflets as Damon frowned.

"Damon, I'm not an obstetrician." Meredith said. "It's not my field of expertise. On the other hand, under the circumstances of you being..." she lowered her voice. "...vampires." she whispered. "I might still be the best qualified doctor to deal with this." she sighed. "I'll make sure at all points that we've got a qualified obstetrician at the appointments, and then you can compel them to forget they attended." she shrugged. "My recommendation is Doctor Harvey. She's the best we have here." Meredith explained as Damon and Elena looked at each other nodding.

"What about scans?" Elena asked.

"The first scan is at six weeks." Meredith told them. "Can I ask, do vampires have periods?" she asked.

"Wishful thinking." Damon muttered as Meredith opened her mouth, but nothing came out, not knowing what to say.

Elena flashed her eyes at him. "Damon!" she exclaimed as he grinned before looking around the room innocently as Elena had a thought to shut him up. "Imagine a vampire with pms." she said smugly.

"Oh, you mean Blondie?" Damon replied. "She has it permanently." he smirked as Elena put her head in her hands, feeling ready to die of embarrassment. "And Barbie Klaus too." he smirked, just to annoy Elena a little more.

Elena turned to Meredith, deciding that ignoring Damon might be the best option. "The answer is no we don't." she said. "Why?" she asked.

"That's the usual method we use for working out how far on you are." Meredith explained. "Although I think it's fair to say that as your symptoms began to show only a week ago, conception must have taken place within the first two weeks after taking the elixir." she said.

"More like first two hours." Damon smirked.

"So I'll arrange for you to have a scan in three weeks." Meredith turned to Elena, also deciding to ignore Damon. "Then we can get a better idea of when the baby is due." she said.

"Can't." Damon told her. "Well not here." he said as Meredith looked to them both and frowned.

"We need to get out of town." Elena explained.

"Where are you going?" Meredith asked.

"Richmond." Damon told her. "We can't return to Mystic Falls until we know the coast is clear. So we need to have everyone we deal with to be in or go to Richmond." he explained. "So can you do some research and find someone you can work with?" he asked. "I know it's unconventional and inconvenient, but I'm sure you'll be able to do what needs to be done." he said as Meredith rolled her eyes.

"Yes Damon." she sighed. "So, my turn." she said, deciding to change the subject. "Blood tests." Meredith explained as she opened her drawer and took out two syringes in packets.

"Why me?" Damon complained.

"We've been through this." Meredith told him. "We need to know if the elixir has caused any other changes to your blood." she told him as he held out his arm for Meredith to take the blood.

Once Damon and Elena had had their blood samples taken, they got up and headed towards the door to leave, however Elena stopped and took a small necklace out of her purse and handed it to Meredith.

"We need you to stop taking the vervain." Elena told her. "We're going to have to compel you to forget what happened after the appointments about who you saw and also about me being pregnant." she said sadly.

"I know." Meredith sighed. "I was expecting it." she said as Damon and Elena looked at each other in surprise. "It's safer that I don't know about it apart from when absolutely necessary. I should be vervain free in two days" she told them.

"We'll let Caroline know, she can compel you." Elena said. "We'll tell her the exact wording of the compulsion. And she'll tell you before you take the necklace off, just to make sure you're okay with it." she said.

"Thanks." Meredith smiled.

"Thank you." Elena said as she walked back over to Damon who put his arm around her.

"Right, we need to be hitting the road." Damon told them. "Thanks doc." he said as Damon and Elena left.

The following day, Damon went to Richmond to see if the safe house was suitable whilst Elena slept for most of the day. She'd begun to noticed a pattern of when she was away from Damon she was more tired. Deciding to wait until Damon came back to see if her theory was correct before she told Bonnie, she decided to take a shower before he returned.

Elena hung up her towel and stepped into the shower, closing the curtain behind her. It wasn't the luxury of Damon's shower, but the water was still hot and right now she needed something on her aching neck muscles. The soreness of her neck was something which had surprised her, she'd not expected to feel pain after vampire, apart from vervain and when she was injured. But it turned out that stress was still a pain in the neck, literally, although Damon told her it was rare for vampires to suffer from it as they'd usually have switched their humanity off before stress got bad enough for it to cause any discomfort. Unfortunately for Elena, flipping her switch was not a luxury she could afford right now.

Elena placed her hands on the white tiles in front of her and bent her head forward so that the spray from the water could cascade over the parts which ached. As her neck and shoulders began to relax, an ache began to form in another part of her body. Unfortunately Damon had been in Richmond most of the day purchasing a house for them to live in whilst they were in hiding, but would also serve as a spare local house should they need one in future. Damon had mentioned the need for 'space' when the little one arrived, meaning Elena had been left alone with Bonnie and Jeremy. She'd wanted to go with Damon, but she'd been tired and she knew she could trust his taste in houses, especially as he more experience in real estate than she did. She hoped the purchase wouldn't take too long and they could be there within a few days. As much as she loved the lake house, it was already beginning to feel claustrophobic with four adults living there, even after just one day.

Elena was so deep in thought, she didn't hear any noise until she felt big strong arms wrap around her waist from behind, initially making her jump, however, she'd recognize those arms anywhere and she immediately began to relax into him.

"Did you get it?" Elena asked as she relaxed her head back into Damon's shoulder.

"Yup." Damon replied. "It needs some furniture, but it's just cosmetic stuff. We'll get someone in to make it perfect when we move back to Mystic Falls." he sighed.

"How long do you think we'll be there?" Elena asked, sighing with pleasure as Damon began to kiss her shoulder.

"No longer than nine months." Damon said as he pulled Elena in tighter to him. "Once the baby is born, the Travelers won't be a threat." he turned her around and pulled her in tight. "And I'm not letting anything happen to you." he said. "To both of you." he whispered as he bent his head down to kiss her on the lips.

Elena wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him in tight, his manhood stiffening at the contact between their wet naked flesh. Damon ran his hand down Elena's back and cupped her behind before lifting her thigh and pulling it up around his waist, bending his knees slightly so that his hard member brushed up against core, without penetration, causing heat to pool in Elena's stomach. The ache around her core becoming more needy for Damon, so much that the slightest touch took her breath away.

"Damon." Elena whispered. "I need you." she said.

"I know." Damon replied as he lowered his lips to Elena's and nibbled her bottom lip before lowering his mouth and lathering kisses along her jawline and down her neck, as a moan escaped her mouth.

Damon gently backed Elena up against the tiles as he licked up her jugular, followed by his blunt teeth, causing Elena's eyes to tingle as she felt her fangs elongate. Elena took Damon's wrist, which he freely gave and pierced it as the sweet nectar of Damon's blood filled her mouth. This time though, something felt different, the connection was there, but her need for Damon's blood wasn't sexual. This was the first time she'd taken Damon's blood since the night they'd had the elixir, she wasn't sure how she'd known, but she's already suspected her need for Damon's blood would be different from the other times. The feeling came from within, she needed to feel his emotions his closeness, yet she wasn't sure whether she was controlling the need, or this particular desire was coming from somewhere else.

Something else different happened this time too, as much as she wanted more, Elena suddenly felt satisfied and stopped drinking, although she did lick the drops away from his wrist. Damon lifted his head up to look at her and frowned.

"I don't need any more." Elena shrugged, suddenly feeling full of energy. "It was different." she explained. "However I still have other needs." she smiled as she felt the ache in her core growing ever stronger for Damon.

Damon placed his hands either on the tiles, either side of Elena's head, as he began to crowd her. "What type of needs?" he asked seductively, as Elena slipped her hand between them and took his solid length in her hand and began to pump it as she simultaneously rubbed her core up against it, gyrating her hips, desperate for some friction.

A moan of pleasure escaped Damon's mouth before he tried to regain his compose. Should Elena continue like this, he'd come before they even started, and she'd never get the relief she so desperately needed. Taking her hand in his, he laced his fingers through hers and shook his head. "Not yet." Damon told her, his voice low and husky. "I won't last long enough for you." he explained as he got down on his knees and looked up through his stunning blue eyes, which were now dark with desire.

Elena looked down at Damon as she ran her fingers through his hair, her core in desperate need for his mouth and fingers to relief the heated ache that was growing inside of her. Damon traced his finger down her slit, causing Elena to nearly collapse with pleasure. He replace his finger with his tongue as he licked up the line, tracing the outline of her folds before pulling them apart, swirling his tongue inside her labia, almost driving Elena to brink. Damon, however knew Elena's body well enough to know when to stop. He knew he was being cruel in dragging it out, but he figured it would be worth it if he could make it more intense for her.

Damon's stopped what he was doing and looked up at Elena, his face now vamped out, she nodded her head, giving him permission for what he was about to do as he moved his head to the side and she felt the prick of his fangs as they pierced her femoral artery, followed by the delicious sensation of him drinking her blood whilst he massaged her nub. Elena felt like her body was responding by sending more blood rushing down her body to her core, causing her to feel a little lightheaded. But before it could cause her to faint, Damon suddenly stopped and his face returned to normal, albeit with small rivulets of blood at the side of his mouth, which was already beginning to disappear under the water of the shower.

Changing tactics once more, Damon blew into Elena's core, before circling the edges of her entrance with his tongue and eventually he slid it inside and began to tongue fuck her, whilst he continued to massage her nub. The ache inside Elena's core was now throbbing to bursting point, she was still feeling a little lightheaded from him taking her blood. That feeling combined with her core being so engorged with blood, due to being so turned on., was causing the heat pooling inside her stomach.

"Oh my god...Damon." she cried as Damon inserted two fingers and latched his mouth onto her swollen clit and swirled his tongue before he began to suck on the tiny bundle of nerves.

The heat that had been pooling inside her stomach now boiled over as white hot spasms began to take over Elena's body. "Fuck...yes..." she cried as the orgasm hit her with a ferocity she hadn't expected, causing her to arch her back away from the tiles, whilst she held on tightly to Damon's hair until he slowed his thrusting hand to allow her to come down from her high. Damon stood up and kissed her, allowing her to tasted herself on him.

"Turn around." Damon instructed her, as Elena followed his instructions and faced the wall.

Damon stood back a step and pulled her hips towards him, forcing Elena to bend down as he gently pushed his member inside of her from behind. "Ahhh." she moaned with pleasure as she felt his length fill her completely. Placing his hands on her hips, Damon began to thrust, slowly at first, sending waves of pleasure up Elena's spine before he began to up the pace. Elena felt the heat pooling in her core once more as Damon instinctively knew what she needed as he moved one of his hands underneath her and found her clit, which he began to work his magical fingers on.

The heat in her core exploded like a volcano. "Oh my god...Damon...oh yes...oh yes...oh yes...aah" she moaned as she suddenly went rigid, unable to form any coherent words as the spasms continued for a few moments longer before they began to die down with Damon slowing down his tempo, before pulling out, turning her around and wrapping her legs around his waist as he inserted himself inside her and began thrusting once more, whilst Elena gyrated her hips in sync with his to increase the friction between them.

"I can't hold on much longer Elena." Damon panted as their faces simultaneously began to change, something that had never happened before.

"I think we should take the hint." Elena said licking her fangs and staring intently at Damon's jugular.

"Are you sure?" Damon whispered as Elena nodded and lowered her head towards his neck as he did the same. They both pierced each other's necks at the same time and began to tug at the delicious blood they were giving each other. Again, the blood sharing was different to every other time they'd done it. Instead of sharing emotions and feelings, this was a sense of being more powerful, for both of them. They began to feel stronger, which reflected on the force of their love-making. Damon increased the power and vigor until he was on the brink. Needing to find his own release, he had to push Elena to come first. Taking Elena's hand, he laced their fingers together and began to jointly circulate her nub, whilst using the wall to keep their balance. Elena's core began to burn up once more as the red hot spasms took over her body for one last time, causing her to be the first to stop feeding as she shrew her head back against the tiles.

"Fuck me Damon...oh my god...yes..." she screamed as Damon kept thrusting whilst her white hot core began to pulsate all around him, milking his shaft to his own release as Elena's back arched away from the tiles whilst her whole body went rigid before it began to shake and her vision began to blur.

"Fuck! Elena..." Damon cried out as she felt him spill his hot seed inside of her as she managed to focus on his face just in time to see it scrunch up in the way that made him look even more erotic and beautiful to her, whilst Damon's body shuddered for a few moments before they clung to each other as if their lives depended on it, both panting hard from the exertion and the strange power that was suddenly vibrating through their bodies. Damon's head momentarily collapsed on Elena's shoulder as he kissed her neck before pulling back up to look at her, whilst his member softened inside her.

"Do you feel that?" Elena asked.

"Yeah." Damon nodded.

"I feel stronger." Elena frowned. "But I need to feel...more..."

"Powerful?" Damon asked as Elena nodded. "I wonder if someone is trying to protect us." he suggested, looking down at Elena's stomach as she released her legs from his waist whilst he pulled out of her.

"I don't know." Elena said. "What I do know is that I don't think blood bags alone are going to cut it for much longer." she told him. "It needs blood fresh from the vein." she said.

"How do you know?" Damon frowned.

"We need to be stronger." Elena explained. "I think that was what the baby was telling us. Fresh blood straight from the vein does that doesn't it?" she asked as Damon nodded. "I think when we move to Richmond, we might have to go to a few...clubs." she suggested winking.

"I like your style." Damon grinned. "But first of all, we need to shower and then do some matchmaking." he told her.

Elena frowned. "Matchmaking?" she asked.

"Yeah well, the house in Richmond only has six bedrooms." he told her.

"Only?" Elena raised an eyebrow.

"If at any point we need to hide the entire Scooby gang there at the same time, people are going to have to share." Damon explained. "And being the romantic at heart that I am, I think that the best way to do that is by giving an incentive." he smirked.

"Bonnie and Jeremy?" Elena asked.

"That is such a good idea." Damon replied with a glint in his eyes. "You work on Witchy, I'll work on Little Gilbert." he suggested.

"You mean to encourage my brother and best friend to have sex?" Elena frowned.

"It'll make for a more relaxing atmosphere." Damon insisted. "It's a win win."

"And what possible advice could you give Jeremy?" Elena asked, worry flashing across her face.

"That's between us men." Damon raised his chin and began to nod slowly as he reached behind Elena and picked up the shampoo. "My turn first." he grinned turning around so Elena could wash his hair.

"Fine." Elena sighed. "Matchmaking it is." she said as she emptied some of the shampoo into her hands and began to run her fingers through Damon's hair.
