Cleaning
Chapter: 18
Elena woke up to the soft sound of Damon breathing. She moved her head gently, as not to disturb him, to get a better look at him. He looks so peaceful when he sleeps almost like…
"Morning princess, like what you see?" Damon's words interrupted Elena's thoughts.
"It just that you look so different when you sleep."
"Really, how so?"
"Like, uhm, a whole Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde thing." Elena answered for a lack of a better simile.
"Really." Damon said raising his eyebrows and the corner of his mouth growing into a curious smirk.
"Yeah, your so peaceful when you sleep but during the day." Elena trailed of and left the sentence unfinished.
"What about during the day?" Damon asked climbing on top of Elena and straddling her.
"You're a sweet vampire." Elena giggled.
"Am I?" Damon said showing his fangs and going towards her neck but just grazed it which caused Elena to shiver.
"Always." Elena answered while Damon continued grazing her neck with his teeth. Elena continued to giggle.
Elena brought Damon's face up to hers and kissed him passionately. "Alright Damon you are a bad vampire. Now can we go before we are late."
"Say it like you mean it." He said kissing her again.
"You're a bad vampire Damon Salvatore." Elena restated getting up and going to the bathroom to change.
Elena changed into a pair of jeans and a purple top, combed her hair, and when she was all done she walked out of the bathroom and found Damon sitting on the corner of the bed waiting for her. "Ready princess, rooms paid for." Damon said leading the way out of the room.
Alexis woke up, her head laying on Stefan's chest. She got quickly and quietly so not to wake him. She changed her clothes and went down stairs to poor herself a glass of blood. While she was sipping on her blood she thought about last night, was she having second thoughts?
"Alexis?" Stefan called from upstairs.
"Down here Stefan."
Stefan made his way to the kitchen and found Alexis. "If you want some," Alexis held up here glass that still contained some blood, "there is some in the fridge."
"No thanks."
"Oh yeah, I almost forgot the animal diet" Stefan nodded. "Well, there's some woods about half a mile east."
"Thanks." Stefan said taking Alexis in his arms and kissing her with every ounce of passion he had.
No, she wasn't having second thoughts, she couldn't. She does love Stefan and will for eternity as long he loves her.
Damon finally drove past a sign that read, welcome to Mystic Falls. A smile crept across Elena's face once they passed the sign, she should be home in time. She decided to take out her diary and write.
Dear Diary
We are back home in Mystic Falls, it should be about another hour or so until I arrive at home. Oh no Diary I almost forgot I have to tell Aunt Jenna about Damon and me. How is she going to react, I mean she never really liked Damon? It might come down to the fact that I have to tell the truth about Stefan, that he was never sick I the first place, I just went so I could talk to him. I'm not going to worry Diary, I am just going to tell her what she wants to know but she is going to have to know about Damon and me, I guess there is no getting out of that.
~Elena~
Elena put her diary back in her bag and looked out the window. They were traveling down a familiar street now, even in the dark Elena could make out her house at the end of the street.
Damon pulled into the driveway and shut off the engine. In a flash Damon was out of the car an to the other side opening Elena's door. Elena stepped out of the car, her bag in hand. She walked up to the front porch, Damon behind her, dug her keys out of her bag and unlocked the door.
"Elena, is that you?" Jenna called from the living room.
"Yeah Aunt Jenna." Jenna appeared in the doorway.
"Hi Elena how's Stefan." She then caught sight of Damon, "Damon." Dislike evident in her voice.
"Stefan's good but Jenna I um need to tell something" Elena took a deep breath before continuing, "I'm kinda with Damon."
Jenna nodded her head as if she knew this already. "I knew it was matter of time Elena but do you love him?"
The question caught Elena by surprise, without turning to look at Damon she knew there was a smirk plastered on his face. Her face blushed scarlet read and her heart threatened to beat out of her chest. "I-I do."
"I'm glad Elena, you probably should get up to bed it's late."
"Yeah, good night Damon."
"Good night Elena."
Damon walked out the door and Elena made her way upstairs. She dumped all her clothes from the bag in the hamper and put everything else where it belongs.
She sat down on her bed with her diary and began writing.
Dear Diary,
First I told Jenna about being with Damon, she acted as if she already knew it. She said it was only a matter of time. She also asked if I loved him, being concerned I guess, but you couldn't even imagine how I felt but I told her the truth.
I didn't tell Jenna that Stefan wasn't really sick, there is no need to get grounded for not telling her the truth. Right? Let's…
A loud thump made Elena close her diary quickly and look towards the window were the sound came from. "Damon, what are you doing here?"
"Hello princess, good to see you again."
He sat beside her on the bed, "I thought you left."
He gave her one of his rare genuine smiles and leaned in to kiss her passionately. "I love you Damon." Elena whispered between passionate kisses.
"I love you." He replied.
It was rare to ever hear Damon speak his emotions, this case was the exception. He always told Elena the truth, and shouldn't and wouldn't stop now.
