Thanks to everyone that left a review or a comment or anything. So here is post first official date…. So the plot thickens….
LOLS
Elena's POV
I'm sitting at my desk, I just finished my homework. I sigh as I open my internet browser and go to Facebook. I pull my phone closer and open my Whatsapp. The only message was Damon who sent me the pictures of out unofficial first date. I smile as I look at the pictures. I plug my phone into my computer and upload the pictures to our file. The number of pictures was drastically growing but I was loving it. I change my desktop background then move back to my internet browser and I look at the news feeds.
Some people were posting about practice and about Ric's upcoming party and then I read some messages regarding Stefan and myself. Lexi posted a status that asked what was up with me and Stefan and then the comments followed and explained what was going on. Looks like someone missed the memo.
I move to the top of the page and decide to post a status : Elena Gilbert is feeling loved - 'Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don't exist, but there's always one guy that is perfect for you.' I smile as I post the status and then I move to my notifications. I had a few friend request so I check that first. Mason Lockwood wants to be your friend. Decline. I didn't want to friends with the person that sent around that video of Stefan and Rebekah. Enzo Rodrigues wants to be your friend. I don't even know him. Decline.
I go to my notifications and there is nothing really new. Nothing interesting. I move to the search bar and search Stefan but I am unable to find him, Damon must have blocked him on my Facebook as well which is fine. I look up Rebekah Michaelson and she pops up. I go to her profile. Her latest status indicates she is frustrated. The one before that is that she hates men. Men or does she just hate Stefan for not wanting her? I shake my head.
I search Damon's profile and it soon pops up. He updated his states about 30 minutes ago. Damon Salvatore is in a relationship, I raise an eyebrow at that but okay. Then I look to his status. 'A wonderful night with a wonderful girl. Xoxo.' I smile at that even thou I am not tagged in the status I know it was meant for me. I want so badly to like his status yet I know Bonnie would be questioning it as soon as she saw it.
I go back to my profile and I move to the albums, I still needed to remove the pictures of me and Stefan. And that's just what I do I remove all the pictures and the album that was dedicated for us. I didn't want a constant reminder. I leave the pictures on of me and Damon and I move them to another album and I change the security settings so the only people who can see the album is me and Damon for now that is.
I look down at my profile and see that my status has already acquired 9 likes and 2 comments I open the comment panel and read the comments. Caroline was one of the people that commented with a simple '?' Whatever.
I receive a notification that someone had just messaged me on Facebook and I open the chat bubble. Hailey sent me a message. 'Hey Elena, everything okay? We didn't get a chance to really speak after lunch?' I needed to figure out what I was going to do about Hailey, she was a great girl and I could certainly see a friendship blooming between us. But how much could I share with her? Could I trust her?
'Hey Hailey. Everything is fine, sorry I bailed but I wasn't in the mood to really speak to Stefan at lunch. But was everything okay? What happened after I left?' I type back and go back to the comments I abandoned.
I see Damon has liked my status, he knows it's aimed towards him. I look to the second comment and it's Ric. 'It's our imperfection that makes us perfect. Don't discriminate!' I just laugh as I read his comment. That was Ric all right.
My chat pops up and Hailey has replied. 'He asked me what I was doing with you and I said I was your friend. But other than that he and Rebekah was fighting most of the time and I caught up with Bonnie and Caroline. Do you mind me joining your group of friends? I don't really have friends to hang out with.' Hailey replied and it really seems sad that she has no one to hang out with. It made me wonder who she spent her lunch with before I invited her today.
'You're my friend so you are more than welcome.' I reply but she's already typing a response and seconds later I receive another message from her.
'Are you friends with Damon?' she asks and I frown not sure if I should be honest with her on this.
'Why?' I ask.
'Just asking.' She replied and I just frown. Why would she be asking?
'He's my ex-boyfriend's brother. But why are you asking?' I say as I look to the screen and yet another comment is added to my status.
'I was just curious, he has a bad reputation you know, Bonnie and Caroline always told me not to go near him.' She sends her reply and I look to the screen as I read her reply. Strangely enough Bonnie and Caroline never mentioned that to me, nor their relationships with my boyfriend, well not that they know he is my boyfriend but then again they did had a fling with him before I was even in the picture. It wasn't really something to be angry over. It would be petty to hold it against them as well.
'That's rather good advice, you shouldn't go near him.' I find myself typing and I instantly regret it because what would she read into it? Fuck. I bite my bottom lip. 'Neither should I.' I quickly add before she even has time to read my message. Quick save.
I go back to my status and it seems that the notifications are picking up like crazy. There are comments of all my friends and I frown as I start to read them. 'So who's the new guy?' I read Bonnie's comment and frown.
'You just broke up with Stefan now you're already lining up the next one?' Lexi asks, what the hell just happened.
'Elena what the hell?' That was Caroline and soon after that comment is posted my phone rings and I look to the screen rolling my eyes.
"Caroline…" I answer and I hear a huff on the other side.
"Connecting Bonnie." Caroline says and I mean when did this happen that they are on my case 24/7?
"Hey Care." I hear Bonnie's voice.
"Elena what's up with your status?" Caroline asks and then I hear some movement on the other end might be from Bonnie might be Caroline but I can't be sure.
"Yeah? I mean we just spoke to you earlier?" Bonnie says and I roll my eyes as I a start to look to my computer screen again.
"What? It's just a status, some positive words from my mom. Not everything is directed to anyone in particular. Not always." I say as I receive a message from Hailey.
'I know, I say they are really crucifying you over your status. It's strange how people can look into things when there is nothing to look into.' Hailey says and I smile at that.
"Seriously you two are my best friends, we share everything, you should know me better by now. I don't know what is it with everyone jumping to conclusions the whole time." I find myself saying and I both girls go quite. "Even if there was someone, you could be a bit more supportive. I mean I always support you guys." I say and there I go getting angry at nothing and I shouldn't.
"Elena… you've been acting a bit weird. And we just worry okay." Bonnie says and I just raise a brow.
"But you have nothing to worry about. I'm okay, I will be okay." I reply and then a message bubble from Damon pops up and I move to it clicking on it and it opens a conversation.
'Hey beautiful, thank you so much for tonight, thank you for listening to me even thou I knew every word that left my mouth made you angry and unsure, even a bit insecure. But you didn't turn your back on me, thank you for giving me a chance.' I slowly read the message and smile.
"We know, we just love you Elena." Caroline says softly and my focus is back to the blonde.
"I love you guys to. But I promise I'll be okay, just give me time." I say. I look to the screen and the picture Damon has as his profile picture currently.
"Just steer clear of Damon." Bonnie says and this instantly catches my attention.
"What?" I ask as I frown and I wait for Bonnie's reply.
"I just mean, you didn't hear Stefan today, he was going on and on about how Damon might be the reason you won't talk to him. He phoned me earlier and said that he thinks that Damon has been corrupting you." At this I start to laugh right out of the pit of my stomach. What the fuck was going on with these people? I mean seriously.
"Corrupting me? What the fuck? So what I spoke with Damon a few times, it's not like he badmouthed Stefan or anything. We just spoke, about normal stuff. Besides he's Stefan's brother and it was bound to happen, situations popped up where I just couldn't ignore him okay." I say and I start giggling again.
"Yeah well." I hear Caroline say.
"What do you have against Damon anyway?" I ask and both girls go quiet.
"It's just the way he treats girls." Bonnie says and I raise a brow.
"Yeah and he just uses them to sleep with them." I hear Caroline say and all of the sudden the cat got their tongue.
"Anyway I need to go, I'll talk to you guys tomorrow okay?" I say and they each say their goodbyes. They would never tell me. Even if I gave them a golden opportunity. I shake my head from side to side. I shouldn't be worrying about that in any case. I look back to my conversation with Damon. I should probably reply.
'Thank you for our unofficial first date. It was great. And I think you deserve a chance because you proved to me time and time again that you're working for it.' I type and I send it to him. My phone rings a few seconds after that and I look to the screen and it's the handsome face that belongs to the one and only Damon.
'You don't understand, you don't understand, what you do to me when you hold his hand, we were meant to be but a twist of fate…' I press the phone to my ear.
"Hey beautiful." I hear Damon's voice and I smile instantly.
"Hey there handsome." I say and I hear him chuckling on the other side I can't help but roll my eyes at him. "You at home?" I ask.
"Yeah I'm home, and you? Done with your homework?" Damon asks, I sit back in my chair and look up to the ceiling.
"Yeah just finished, so thanks for dinner, I really loved it." I say and I can almost see him smile.
"And I really love you." Damon says and this has me smiling. "I see they are crucifying you on your status." Damon says and at this I roll my eyes out of frustration.
"And then I have 3 different girls telling me to steer clear of you." I say and it goes silent on the other side.
"Let me guess, Blondie, Bon-Bon and Lexi?" Damon asks and I smile as he speaks about my friends.
"Nope Hailey, apparently Bonnie and Caroline told her to stay away from you." I say popping the 'p' of nope.
"I never even noticed Hailey to be honest. Not when I have my eyes on you." Damon says and I just giggle he was such a charmer.
"You better keep your eyes on me." I say and at this he chuckles.
"Or what?" he asks, I bite my lip not sure what to say.
"Or… No kisses." I reply and then I start laughing,
"You can't do that to me. I mean I have the best kisses ever." Damon says and well he was telling the truth so I would be denying myself the pleasure of his lips. "We going to Ric's party?" Damon asks and I raise a brow because he mentioned the label 'we' indicating that we go together, which I would love but then again I had a shit load of people on my back.
"Separately, but we can set a time and have a secret rendezvous." I say and at this Damon just chuckles.
"I don't care who you go with, just so long you come home with me at the end of the night." Damon says and a shiver runs up my spine at the thought of going home with him.
"I'm sure we can arrange that." I say in my most seductive voice I can manage and I hear Damon on the other side as he grunts.
"I'll speak to you tomorrow, sleep tight beautiful." I hear Damon say and then I can hear on the other side someone mumbling and then the line goes down. Stefan might have barged into his room. But it was okay. Everything was going to be okay. I place my phone on the desk and glance one last time towards my computer screen. I sigh I should get to bed, tomorrow is another day, another day to avoid Stefan, ignore Damon and just be me.
