Okay, MorganJaymeeXxX gave me a very good idea by saying that I should write from Damon's point of view. Therefore, that's what I'm going to do for half of this chapter. I'm going to let everyone know what is going through his mind while he's with Leslie. Anyway, I hope you like this next Chapter. :)

P.S. School has started, so I may not update as soon as I wish I could. I will try my best to update quick, so please just bear with me. I will NOT abandon this story. This story is really good, well at least in my head it is. The judges that decide if this story is really good are all of you. :)

Disclaimer: I do not own the Vampire Diaries or its characters. Wish I did.

Chapter 10

(Damon's POV) About time. ;)

I watched her as she sat in the small classroom with her arms folded across her chest, throwing smart remarks at the teacher. I was perched on the branch of the tree staring inside watching her. She had a huge grin on her face as she watched, "Kool-Aid man" flaming in fury. Today was her last day of lunch detention. I had watched how the teacher had wanted to make her stay in there hell, but it instantly backfired on him. Every single day of the past week Leslie tortured him. For every single thing he said, she had a smart remark to throw at him. I could tell that he kept staring at the clock as if it was going way to slow. I could see how he just wanted to get out of that room and away from her. I laughed, how comical, a grown man was afraid of little girl with attitude. When I laughed it came out as a loud 'caw', since I was in my crow form. She instantly turned and looked at me. When she saw me, she smiled and waved. Then she got up from her seat and walked towards the window.

"Leslie, where do you think you're going?"

She instantly grinned and said sarcastically.

"I'm about to throw myself out the window, cuz death would be way better than being stuck here with you."

He glared at her and said.

"Leslie take a seat now!"

"Why would I take a seat? I can't do that, that's school property. I don't want to be called a thief."

"Leslie!"

"Chill out, I just want to say hi to my friend."

"There's no one at the window!"

"Ha, do you just pretend, or are you really?"

"Am I really what?"

"Freaking blind! That's what!"

"Leslie, sit down or I will call the principal in here!"

"While you're at it, can you go get me a bottle of water? I'm really thirsty, pissing you off really wears me down."

He was about to yell something else when another teacher stepped in and told him that he was needed in the office. He glared at Leslie then turned and walked out. She just laughed at him and turned back to me. The female teacher turned to Leslie and said.

"Leslie, what are you doing?"

She sighed, turned to the teacher and said.

"Hey miss, what's up?"

"Oh nothing much, just saving you from another week of detention."

As she said that she smiled and then winked. Leslie smiled back and said.

"I know, thanks."

"So, what did you do now?"

"Well, I was simply trying to say hi to my friend and he started tripping. I'm serious, he needs some anger management or something."

She laughed and said.

"Yes, I agree."

She tilted her head to the side and said.

"So where's your boyfriend?"

"Huh?"

"Isn't he the one you wanted to say hi to? Is he hiding in the tree?"

"What? Hell no! I just wanted to say hi to my crow."

She seemed confused. Leslie sighed, she opened the window, extended her arm to me and said.

"Come here."

I flew inside the classroom and landed on her arm. The teacher raised an eyebrow and said.

"I didn't know you had a crow."

She smirked and said.

"Neither did I, but this little guy just keeps following me around. I let him stay the night one time, when it was cold. After that, he just kept coming back."

"Oh, so he's not your permanent pet?"

"Nah, not really. He comes and stays with me during some nights and sometimes he doesn't come at all. That's cool with me, though. I don't want to put him in a cage and keep him locked up. Birds..."

I made a loud caw in protest, I was NOT a damn bird. She only laughed and said.

"Sorry my bad, CROWS and other flying animals are meant to be free in the skies. Not trapped in small spaces and waiting to be fed. They have wings and claws, so they can use them. I'm cool with him having his deserved freedom."

"Aren't you afraid that it may have some sort of disease and you could get sick?"

I fought the urge to fly and pull each and every single hair out of her head. How dare she say that I had a disease! Leslie just stared at me and patted my head then said.

"I know he's healthy."

The teacher seemed unconvinced and said.

"How do you know? Have you taken him to the vet?"

There was no way in hell I would be taken to some damn vet! Leslie only laughed and said.

"No, I just know that he is."

"How?"

Leslie just grinned and said.

"I had my dad check him. He's really good with animals."

What the hell? That never happened, every single day that I had stayed I had been awake. I had even shifted back to my true form and sat by her bed a couple of times. I supposed she was just saying that to shut the teacher up. It worked because she sighed and said.

"That's good I wouldn't want you to get a disease simply because of some filthy animal."

That did it, I was about to lunge and claw her face. When suddenly Leslie grabbed me and hugged me close to her chest. She leaned down and whispered.

"Hey calm down, it's okay. She's just worried about me, don't take it to seriously."

I calmed down a little then I turned to glare at the teacher. Leslie just grinned and said in a voice so low that I was positive she couldn't hear a thing.

"If you're gonna do something make sure she doesn't see it's you. I'd be pretty pissed to, if she insulted me like that."

I only smiled and nodded my head at her. She laughed and then I heard the teacher say.

"Did it just nod its head?"

"Yep."

With that she turned and went to sit down at her desk with me still in her arms. She held me close and said.

"You didn't come last night. Where were you?"

I was having a great night and drink from dear Caroline. I only stared up at the ceiling an opened my mouth. She laughed and said.

"Whatever it was, was it tasty?"

If you only knew. She just kept smiling and said.

"Well, you hurteded my feelings. I was all by my lonesome."

Hurteded? What the hell was that? That wasn't a word. She only laughed and said.

"Hurteded, is a word that I made up. Instead of saying hurt, I say hurteded. Pretty neat, huh?"

I just stared at her and held back the laughter that wanted to escape me. Then the teacher sighed and said.

"Leslie, hurteded isn't a word."

"Well, it's a free country and I can make up words if I feel like it."

"Yes, I suppose you're right."

"I always am."

As soon as she said that the bell rang. She instantly jumped up and said.

"Finally! About time! Picking on Kool-Aid man was getting boring."

With that, she smiled down at me and said.

"Hey I have to get to class, so you need to go."

I gave her a fake sorrowful look. She sighed and said.

"I'll miss you to little guy, but I have to go."

That was my new nickname that she had given me. I had been called many things, but never little. It didn't bother me though, if she was the one that said it, then that was fine by me. Then she seemed to think about something and then she said.

"You can come tonight if you want to. After Elena's little dinner party with Stefan and Bonnie, I'm just gonna hang outside for a bit."

A dinner party? How interesting, I would make sure to be there even if I had to drag Caroline all the way there. I knew that wouldn't be necessary though. She loved to show me off in front of everybody, especially Leslie. Who, only rolled her eyes when she saw me with her. Caroline, of course thought she was jealous, but I knew otherwise. Leslie was annoyed by the fact that Caroline believed that and tried to make her jealous. She also did it, simply because she didn't like me.

She had made that very clear the day she went to work with Stefan on a project they had to do for history. She had told me to get the hell out of her face or she would hit me were it hurt the most. I had laughed at her until she took a step back and glared at me. Luckily, Stefan walked in and told her to go into the study, so they could work. Before she left she said to me, "consider yourself lucky, next time I won't care if Stefan is in here or not." After that, she left and then Stefan began his usual ranting. How I should stay away from her, and that he wouldn't let me hurt her, blah, blah, blah.

She then walked with me to the window and said.

"Ready?"

I only nodded and she laughed. She seemed to really like it when I did that. It seemed to either really amuse her or impress her. She then put me outside the window and let me go. I instantly flapped my wings and flew into the night sky. I distantly heard her call after me and say.

"See you later, I'll leave the window open."

(Leslie's POV)

"Okay Leslie, show me what you got!"

I heard Caroline yell this as I stood on the edge of the football field. I sighed, I was going to strangle Elena as soon as I got my hands on her. Why the hell did I agree to this in the first place? Oh right, because Elena had started crying and begged me to stay for cheer leading tryouts with her. Also, it gave me a good excuse to be out of the house and away from my dad. He could be such a pain sometimes, his lectures always put me to sleep. I turned, then gave her my signature death glare and said menacingly.

"Don't..., yell at me Caroline."

She instantly took a step back and said in a low voice.

"Right, just show me what you are able to do."

"Fine, I need music though."

"What? Why?"

I only rolled my eyes and said.

"So I can use the stereo to clean my toilet! Why do you think I need it?"

She just stared at me with a confused look on her face. I sighed and said.

"Without music, I can't do squat!"

"Oh okay, hold on."

I saw her bring an ihome and put it down then she said.

"Do you want to put your iPod or mine."

"Just put whatever, I don't care."

She plugged in her iPod and then, "DJ Got Us Fallin In Love" by Usher started.

I sighed and began moving my hands and hips in synchronization with the song. I began slowly then gradually picked up the pace. I began to dance to the side, spin, and throw my long curly hair back. I moved my legs in perfect sync with the beat and rhythm of the song. I would put my hands in my hair, or sometimes I would throw my hands up and jump. The guys had already left the field and were walking towards the locker room. I took advantage of this and moved more into the field. When they saw me they stopped dead in their tracks as I began to do all sorts of flips. I did front flips, back flips, cart wheels, and never stooped in between each. Then towards the end of the song I did what very few people could do. I did a front flip, but instead of landing on my feet. I had both of my hands on the floor and my legs were in the air spinning, right along with my body. It looked similar to a hand stand, but I wasn't just simply holding myself up in the air. My legs were spinning rapidly and my entire body was as well. When the song ended I easily pushed myself up from the floor and landed easily on both my feet facing Caroline and the rest of the girls.

Everyone was extremely quiet, they all had their mouths hanging open just staring at me. It was disturbingly quiet and it got on my nerves, so I said.

"So, how did I do?"

That was a huge mistake because that's when the uproar began. All of the guys began whistling, clapping, and cheering. Then they began to yell.

"Leslie! Leslie! Leslie!"

I only laughed at them and said.

"Well, they seem to think I'm good. What do you think, Caroline?"

"You're on the squad!"

"Ha, you would like that, wouldn't you?"

She instantly nodded her head happily.

"Yeah well, I think I'll pass."

All the girls instantly yelled.

"What!"

"Are you people deaf? I SAID, I'LL PASS!"

With that I turned my back to them and walked over to the Stefan. Who was standing in the center of all the other guys. I instantly got a great idea, on how to make things a bit more fun. I went up to him and wrapped my arms around him then I said.

"Hey big bro! How did I do? What do you think?"

"She's your sister!"

I heard one of the jocks say. Stefan just stood there frozen then suddenly relaxed and said.

"Not exactly, we aren't blood related, but I see her as if she were my little sis."

I smiled happily and yelled.

"And you'll always be my big bro!"

Stefan and I had grown very close over the past couple of days. He had told me the true story of his life, of how he became a vampire. How a woman named Katherine had compelled him and Damon to fall in love with her. She had never loved them, she had only loved herself and played with their emotions. After her death, Damon had vowed to make his life miserable and to this day he kept to his word. He blamed Stefan for her death and he had never let him forget the past. Stefan was completely honest with me, when he told me of the monster he had been. He didn't downplay anything, he was completely straight up with me and I liked that. He claimed that while Damon did kill people, he didn't. He told me that a good friend of his helped him change and try to become a better person. When I asked him how he was able to survive he said that he drank animal blood. So, I didn't have to worry about him trying to "eat" me like I said. I had laughed at his joke and small sense of humor. He also told me that Damon was always making him miserable because he still loved Katherine. Even after over 150 years he was still in love with her. Damon also hated him because Katherine had turned him too and Damon only wanted her to change him.

I couldn't help but feel sad for them. One girl, one selfish and stupid girl had broken the best thing there was in life, a siblings bond. I would never let anyone get in between Elena and I. She was my little sister and I would always stick up for her no matter what. Stefan also told me that the reason he had nearly passed out when he saw us was because we looked exactly like her. He said especially me, because of my dark curly hair and my attitude. Elena was similar to the way Katherine was when she was around other people such as his father. She was a nice, polite, and descent young lady. Elena was always like that, but Katherine was only like that at certain times. The majority of time she was like me. After he said that, I told him that if he ever compared me to her again I would hit him so hard that he would wish he was truly dead. He had laughed at me until I give him a hard smack on the back of the head. He then said he was sorry and that he wouldn't do it again. He claimed that he knew very well that I was NOT Katherine.

Ever since Stefan and Elena had started dating he was nearly always at the house. I saw that he was a nice, descent guy who truly cared for her and wanted to keep her safe. He still didn't know what we were and Elena didn't know about him either. Although, I was sure that it wouldn't be long until the truth finally came out. Even though I had threatened to kill him if he hurt my sister he was still really nice to me. For that, I held a great deal of respect and in a way, admiration for him. Anyone else would have instantly called me a bitch and stayed away from Elena, but he didn't. He liked her and cared for her so much, that he was willing to put up with me and my big mouth. During first period I always had him and everyone in class busting out laughing. When we had to work in partners he would instantly sit next to me and I was completely fine with that. I preferred Stefan a million, billion times more, than that idiot Tyler Lockwood.

I let him go and he said.

"You did a great job, Leslie. I'm sure that you'll make the squad."

"Oh I did. I'm just not going to join."

He tilted his head to the side and said curiously.

"Why not?"

"Ha, look at me. Do I look like a cheerleader to you?"

I was wearing black shorts, with a black tank top and my hair was all messed up from all of the spinning. He smiled and began.

"Well..."

I cut him off and said.

"That's what I thought. There's no way in hell that I would wear red and dance for others amusement. I'd rather endure another week with Kool-Aid man, than that."

He stared at me and then he started laughing, as did the other guys. I smiled at them and then I heard Elena say behind me.

"Ahem!"

I was sure that she had seen our exchange and Elena was very territorial when it came to her boyfriends. I only laughed at her and said.

"You have a cold little sis? Stefan, hurry up and go change, that way you'll still be hot, so you can warm her up tonight."

I heard a lot of snickers from the guys. I saw how both Stefan and Elena instantly blushed and looked away. I only laughed at them and said.

"Well we should get going, we have dinner to prepare. Oh, and Stefan don't you dare cancel. If you even try, I'll go to your house, tie you up, and drag you all the way to my house. You got that?"

He laughed and threw one of my remarks back at me and said.

"I don't know, did I?"

I glared at him and said.

"Hey! That's my saying!"

He only laughed and went to embrace Elena in a tight hug. I still glared at him and said jokingly.

"You're gonna pay for that, Salvatore. No one steals my lines."

He smiled and threw another one at me and said.

"Looking forward to it."

"Ugh! Just wait, once I get my revenge you won't be laughing, you little stealer!"

"Stealer?"

"Yeah, I said stealer, so what?"

He shrugged and said.

"Alright."

Man he was really pissing me off, so I got in between them and dragged Elena out of the field. Before we left, I yelled really loudly.

"Come on Elena, lets go! Your little, saying stealer is pissing me off and I don't want to embarrass him in front of all his friends!"

I instantly heard how everyone started laughing at my threat. Then I heard two guys say.

"You think she could take him?"

"I don't know based on what I saw Tuesday. When it comes to Leslie, I think that anything is possible."

I saw Matt approach Stefan and ask.

"You scared Stefan? Cuz honestly I think she could take you."

Stefan kept his eyes on us and said.

"Honestly, I think you're right."
