Hey guys so I am having the week from hell. So first, my cat is at the vet, he has kidneys stones again, I know this was a problem 3 months ago but he's in for surgery today! And then I kinda cracked my laptop screen. Don't ask and I won't lie. So it's currently in at the moment getting fixed so I am borrowing my hubbies laptop, and believe me sharing is not caring because he wants to work and I want to type.

Sorry about the short chapter but I could not leave you high and dry so I wanted to update! Guys tell me what you think! And thanks to each and every person that takes time out of their busy schedule to read my story and leave a review! You guys are the best!

Elena's POV

This was all really strange to me. I mean the fact that I woke up in a house I barely knew, was strange, I had no other word to describe it, it felt like I was having an outer body experience. I felt out of place, well seeing that this was the first time I ever came over to visit Damon at his house and I the fact that I slept over which I never really do. Well I have never slept over at a guy's place, like never ever, it wasn't something that I did because I didn't really have a boyfriend and friends that were boys that I was close to that I slept over at. But I was pleasantly surprised when Damon walked into his room smiling broadly with what I presume is a cup of coffee in his one hand and a glass of orange juice in the other. Because he actually remembers that I dislike coffee and I would rather drink juice, I can't even remember telling him that but he knew.

I was given the opportunity to shower and get ready in the bathroom first because he shared a bathroom with Stefan. I didn't want to run into Stefan when I felt and looked this lousy. My eyes are still l swollen and red from all the crying I have done since yesterday, but that doesn't stop me from marching towards the bathroom and taking a well-deserved shower before, brushing my teeth and going back to Damon's room. I walk in to find him packing his school bag, and I just find it out of the ordinary to see him like this in his daily routine. He glances up towards me and gives me a sad smile. That was all it took for the water works to start up again and the tears are tumbling down my cheeks. The door is barely closed before I crumble and tumble to the floor, my towel pulled tightly against me as I fall to the floor sobbing. I was a complete mess.

My mother had cheated on my father, how long this has been going on? I have no idea, my father even wanted to do a DNA test, was it that bad? I shudder to think that I might be Uncle Johns daughter. I was nothing like him, nor was Jeremy, we were both like our father or that's what we liked to think. But I needed to understand, this was not about me, this was about my father and right now my father was hurt, his trust was broken by the two people he cared the most about in the whole world. He had every right to question everything that was going on in his life since my mother walked in.

I feel Damon's arms wrap around me tightly as he pulls me closer to him, it's somewhat soothing. He doesn't 'shh' me or trying to silence me he just holds me close to him, swaying me back and forth. In a way it comforting how he just understands but in the same breath it's terrify because I had done the same thing to Stefan. I was walking in my mother's footsteps. I hear a faint knock on the door behind us and Damon looks up towards it with a surprised look on his handsome face.

"Damon, honey are you okay?" I hear Damon's mother, Lily from the other side and that makes me cry even harder. Hell I feel the door being pushed but Damon stops it dead in its track, forbidding his mother from barging in on us.

"Stop." I hear him say as he push it close again without any effort, it would be horrifying if his mother walked in finding me just in a towel. "Don't come in." I hear him say as he pulls me closer and he just holds me tightly.

"Maybe Elena can talk to me?" Damon's mother asks and I freeze. Did she know I was here? When did she find out I was here? Did she know I slept here last night? Hell was I so consumed in myself that I had become unobvious to everything around me?

"I'm okay." I croak out. And then I push Damon from me and rise to my feet, nothing was going to happen if I kept lying here in Damon's arms crying like I a big baby, I needed to stop worrying about myself because the world did not revolve around me, I mean nothing good would come from it. I would need to get dressed and get to school and I would need to stand by my father in this time that he needed me, and he needed me now more than ever. But I couldn't chose sides hell, this was my parents. I couldn't just go choosing who ever because I did the same, I could not be hypocritical. I push past Damon even as he tried to reach for me. I wasn't angry. I was just indifferent to the whole situation.

"Elena, don't mind my mom. It's up to you what you want to do." Damon says and I can see the sadness in his eyes that I had rejected his affection but there was something running deeper than just that. Because what I saw there in his eyes was exactly what I saw in my father's eyes when he told us my mother had cheated. I reach for his outreached hand and grasp it in mine, moving closer until I am wrapped around him like a glove again.

"I just want to stay here with you. I don't want to go to school. I don't want to do anything, I just want to stay in bed." I say, and I know this is being beyond selfish, but on some level I knew there was something else wrong with Damon and maybe he needed this just as much as I needed it. He wraps his arms around me and pulls me closer until we are the only thing that matters in the world.

"Then we stay here. You hear mom?" Damon yells a bit louder and then I hear a sigh and footsteps walking down the hall. Maybe just today I would focus on Damon and myself, just for today. One lone day of being completely selfish with Damon. He pulls me to his bed and then let's go as I see a pair of shorts and a tank top patiently waiting for me. He pulls of his t-shirt over his head and he kicks down his jeans, I just smile as I watch him, I have never seen him like this. It's rather refreshing to know that we both are human from time to time.

As soon as he's comfortable he flops down on his bed and he pulls the remote to his side before he narrows his eyes back at me, he looks me up and down and gives me a wink. "Shall I forgo the choice of clothes or be dressed in all things that is Damon?" I ask with a silly smile on my watery cheeks, but the towel does fall to the floor revealing my small still lightly wet frame and I grab a hold of the tank top that is far too big for me. But I throw it over my head and wear it like a dress. The shorts would only be for convenient sake of someone does enter the room.

Damon pats the spots next to him and then I slowly walk towards him and take my spot next to him wiggling into his arms and making myself comfortable. "Want to tell me how you feel and what's on your mind?" Damon asks cuddling closer to me as he hands me the remote of the television. Was he giving me full choice to decide on what I was going to watch with him? I wasn't granted this privilege every day so I needed to enjoy it while it lasted.

"I just…I feel lousy." I say as I start looking through his collection of movies on his external hard-drive. 'Dawn of the Dead' seemed rather appealing as I look through the names. I press the play button and look to Damon, his eyes boring more into mine then anything than else. "I don't know what I feel towards my parents but that little bit of shock and sadness you passed at me earlier, I'm wondering about that… You maybe want to tell me something?" I ask and Damon just relaxes into the cushions.

"There's nothing to really tell." Damon starts as he places a hand over my stomach and pulls me closer to him, like I'm his possession. I liked being in his possession it gave me a sense of security.

"Damon…Please tell me." I whisper as I fold myself into him and with his other hand he pulls the covers over us. "I want to know you, inside and out…I want to know what that shock was and why there was sadness." I whisper as soon as the covers are over us and we are wrapped in a safe cocoon.

"You know me…" Damon whispers as I place my head on his chest. I knew more of Damon then anyone knew him, yet it still wasn't everything. But I wasn't really sure I wanted to know everything just about yet.

"Not everything…" I lightly trail of looking towards his dazed blue eyes. He had something on his mind I could tell. If there was anything that had to be done, we needed to be open to each other and we should not be hiding things from one another. "I have this constant battle with myself on whether I should be worse on myself on what I did to your brother or if I should just go with the flow and enjoy every single moment I have with you…" I openly say out of the blue because deep down my guilt was eating at me and maybe if I spoke to him about these feelings he would open up towards me.

"Is the guilt still eating you up since that first kiss?" Damon ask lightly raking his hands through my still wet hair.

"I think that's the one thing that made me realise I might be going after the wrong brother…There was no guilt in that kiss, hatred yes, anger yes, but I never felt guilty about." I say as I mute the volume of the shotguns going off. "You were my first everything, from start to finish…" I say and I can't help the small smile that is creeping onto my lips.

"First… Kiss?" Damon asks as he leans closer and presses his lips to my forehead. I just nod my head at him. "First guy you ever saw naked?" At this I turn my head from him blushing a beat red.

"You want me to say it out load… You were my first everything. And I wouldn't have it any other way." I say somewhat giggling which only makes Damon smiles, pressing a lone kiss to the side of my temple.

"I feel honoured that I was your first." There's something in his tone that I dislike, I frown at this. "Elena… before we got together you didn't like me that much right, was it really because of how I was?" Damon asks as he looks to the side, he turns somewhat from me and looks towards the television screen, okay now we were getting somewhere with this.

This was a strange gesture all together, why was he turning from me though? "Yes, I didn't because I didn't know you…" I say snuggling closer and then Damon pulls from me with a frown on his face where was this going now? "But I got to know you and there was a misperception that you were a raging man whore which was half true but you stopped that." I say and this catches Damon's attention as he looks towards me.

"But I'm not like that… anymore, I am a one woman-man, and you are all that matters to me, you are my one woman." Damon replies and there is an edge to his voice, an edge I am unaware off. I frown as I wiggle out of his grip and I straddle him placing my legs on either side of his legs. I look into those blue orbs and frown. I give him a small smile before poking his ribs.

"Tell me, what you're dying to tell me." I say with a smile but it instantly disappears because I can see Damon doesn't want to tell me and this is something that he doesn't want to do nor is he looking forwards to doing it. "What's going on Damon, why the 180 degree?" I ask as I look at him more seriously.

Damon looks to the side and I think he doesn't want to tell me. Now he's avoiding my knowing eyes. "I don't really know how to say this." Damon says and he looks pained should I be scared about what he was about to tell me? I move closer to him, trying to avoid his groin pressing into me. "Stefan is my half-brother." My smile stop midway as I frown. My mouth slightly opens to ask what but I stop myself. "My father was quiet mister promiscuous when he was younger, well he still is, my step mother just let it slide because nothing she says or does will change that." Damon says and I sit closer, listen closer.

"What?" I repeat my question a bit unsure, this time actually voicing it.

"Yeah Lily is my step mother. Stefan is my step brother… and my father is more promiscuous then the town whore." Damon says looking to the side like he's somehow embarrassed by what he's telling me. I'm not sure whether to ask him anything further, anything else that now crowds my mind. There were so many questions. I open my mouth once or twice but just continue to look at Damon. "I don't want to end up like my father…" Damon says softly finally looking into my eyes.

"When did you find this out?" I ask as I place my hand on his cheek because all of this is pretty new information to me.

"I was 5 when my mother finally pitched up and asked for support. She was out of heroine money… I never questioned anything, she was just one of his many hook-ups. When I was 12 my dad told me the truth, by that time she passed on. Oh well." Damon says and my eyes go wide I didn't know this, I was caught but complete and utter surprise. I want to ask so many questions but stop, I can see he didn't want to talk about it. Knowing what he knew surely took a toll on him.

I wrap my arms around him and almost throw myself at him in a hug. I think that was the only reason why I was holding him. This was getting my mind of what my mother did. I just hold him and he wraps his hands arounds me pulling me closer. "I didn't know that." I whisper to that I feel his chuckle.

"No one knows. I prefer it like that. Stefan doesn't know either." Damon whispers in a low voice.

"Why did you tell me if you don't want anyone to know?" I ask looking at him again, his eyes a light blue.

"I love you." Damon says as he moves closer pressing his lips towards mine, slightly placing his lips on mine. "What I feel with you I have never felt before, and this might be something that could potentially hold me down and come between us, that why I wanted to share it with you." Damon says as he kisses me again.

"You love me that much?" I ask placing my hands on his shoulders.

"I love you more than anything." Damon says his lips smiling against mine and I know where this is going.

"You're trying to get my mind of off everything…" I mumble against his lips and that's where everything stopped because the door popped opened and Stefan pokes his head into the room a confused look adoring his face. We both stop and looked at Stefan. He looks beyond confused.

"Mind knocking?" Damon asks as he wraps a duvet around our bodies. Keeping us covered from Stefan view not that we were naked or anything. Stefan frowns as he looks to his side, he wasn't planning on walking in on us I think he didn't even know I was here, hell I start to blush a deep shade of red as I look anywhere but his face.

"Mom says you weren't going to school I just wanted to pop in to let you know that she phoned the school…" Stefan trails off. "I didn't know Elena was in here with you." Stefan says and I turn my head up to look at him even thou a blush graced my cheeks, he doesn't look the same, he doesn't seem that heartbroken anymore. Good for him

"Sorry. Surprise visit I guess…" I half mumble. I look to Damon and then to Stefan. I can feel Damon move and then I'm not straddling him anymore and he's on the other side of the bed looking all kinds of pink, was Damon blushing? I watch Damon rise from the bed and then move to the closet grabbing a shirt before he gives me a pensive look and then make his way to the door, "Damon?" I call out and he stops smiling to me.

"Juice and coffee babe, and I think Saint Stef here wants to say something to you… without me in the room… because he doesn't know yet..." Damon is being evasive and confusing as hell and this catches me of guard as I frown towards Stefan, he has a blush on his face but as soon as the elder Salvatore leaves the room he looks at anything but at me. What was going on that I did not know of or why did he want to speak to me? This was partly awkward because I was in Damon's clothes in Damon's bed and I didn't think for one moment that Stefan would expect me here he looks at me with a furrowed look on his face.

"Elena I'm sorry about everything that happened between us. I don't want us to act awkward around each other." Stefan says and it seems forced as he takes a seat on the corner on Damon's bed. "I want us to be friends, you and Damon together, really you two fit each other, its good seeing both of you happy and ... together" Stefan says, I frown did he just stutter?

"We're okay. Just leave it at that," I say as I look to the television screen that has gone forgotten from my mind and the mindless zombies moan and groan shuffling from one side of the parking lot to the other.

"So we're okay?" Stefan asks.

"Yes." I say wrapping the duvet more firmly around me, I felt very self-conscious with only him in the room with me. "You slept with Rebekah, I slept with Damon. And in the process we figure that we didn't belong to each other." The surprised look on Stefan's face did not go unnoticed and then he raises a brow.

"You slept with Damon?" Stefan asks and I frown, he should have known, I mean he had to know, I mean fuck did I just put my foot in my mouth? "It doesn't matter, you wouldn't be here if you two weren't this close and intimate." Stefan says and he seems a bit closed off to this fact that I would be intimate to his brother and not to him. "He really loves you so I hope you guys work out." Stefan says and I give him a smile. Why does his uncertainty make me feel uncomfortable?

"I'm really sorry if I did hurt you." I say as the door slides open and Damon pops his head in to the room checking if the coast is clear, well the coast was not clear and this was awkward as hell, we both just look towards him and I give him a half smile and Stefan gives him an irritated look like he just interrupted us.

"One refill for coffee, one refill of orange juice. And one pretty obvious sign that baby brother should leave my room now." Damon says kicking the door open fully. Damon nods his head towards the younger Salvatore and the door and Stefan frowns yet again.

"So I get to go to school while you two fuck like bunnies." Stefan mutters as he rises from the bed making his way towards the door turns his back towards us, his one hand on the door.

"Fuck you." I hear Damon say before the door is being closed and the cup and glass is placed on the side table and he joins me underneath the duvet. "No fucking, I just want today to be here, be ourselves in a safe place… But it's optional." Damon says pulling me closer to him and kissing my forehead as I loose myself in all thing that is Damon Salvatore and his mysterious way.
