ELENA'S (POV)
" We could go to the boarding house ?" He said
making it sound like a question. She could tell that he was a little
nervous but why be so nervous? He was the one that could use his special abilities on her but she couldn't do that to him without exposing her true
self. So there was no need to worry, so why was he? "Sure, we could go there."She said with a smile
Stefan was the perfect gentle man. He had opened and closed to door for her. He let her in first when they had arrived at the boarding house. Now here
she was in the boarding house, in the kitchen, making them some sandwiches . " How do you want yours?"She asked him. "Um… you know you don't have
to do this," he said from the door way. She went up to him and said, "I know but I want to do something for you."She said looking into his green eyes. "
Why?" he asked. "Because we got off on the wrong foot and I want to make a good impression," she said smiling at him. It's hard sometimes to realize
that she's supposed to mess with their heads when they are both so charming. This is going to take some getting used to, she thought . "Well I should be
the one making a good impression because I offended you .When I didn't intend to," Stefan said sincerely . "It's okay .I should be sorry because I ran off
like a little child. Leaving you by yourself."She said with a frown remembering what she had done. " Here let me help you with the sandwiches." He came
and helped make his own sandwich . "Alright I'm finished." Elena said. Elena turned her head to look at Stefan . Stefan looked up at Elena and their lips
were only merely inches apart. "Yeah." his breath tickled Elena's skin and she took the opportunity to kiss kiss was soft and gentle. It was like he
was afraid that she might break. The only thing was that he couldn't break her. She was he was the one who could break him and that's what she's
doing. She is going to break his heart in the end. Elena was so into the kiss that she didn't here anyone enter the house until they made themselves
present. Elena and Stefan heard someone cough . They both turned their heads in synchronization . At first Elena was shocked , no shocked was an
understatement . She didn't expect to see Damon here. She was hoping that she wouldn't have to see him for the rest of the day. It's not that she no
longer held interest in him. But her being around him may become dangerous because he might try to investigate her. She needed this day to come up
with a story to tell him. But she guesses fate wants her to have complications. Fate want's her to crumble for once and for all. She looked questionably at
Stefan."Oh.. Stefan didn't mention he had a brother."Damon looked at Stefan and smirked," You wound me brother." Damon said with mock hurt in his
voice, and with his hand over his heart. Damon walked back into the living room . He sat down on the sofa and raised his legs and rested them on the
coffee table. "Oh excuse my manners . Please sit down." Damon motioned Elena to sit down. She felt kind of uneasy . What if Damon told his brother that
they already met and that they had gotten to know each other intimately . She could always say that she didn't know him , then. That she was drunk and
that what they did was a drunken mistake. But then that would hurt Damon and eventually he would push himself away from her,and she oddly found
herself not wanting him getting hurt by her actions. She needed to come up with an excuse. She knew she had a poker face on. She couldn't let him see
how she was feeling. She was going to be the calm and collected Elena she knew how to be when it came down to situations like this. She nudged Stefan
in the ribs. He turned his gaze towards her, "you didn't tell me you had a brother." I said looking directly at Damon. "I was going to tell you later on ." She
took this opportunity as her way out. "Are you sure you were going to tell me?" She said with a brow quirked, waiting for an answer. " Because I don't
think you were. We are only friends and you are already keeping me in the dark." she emphasized the word friends before she stood up and made her
way over to Damon and extended her hand , "it was a pleasure meeting you." He took her hand and brought it up to his lips. " It was also a pleasure," he
mumbled against her skin. Elena turned around and headed towards the door. When her hand grasped the door knob she turned to Stefan and nodded
her head in his direction , "Stefan." And with that she left. She really didn't leave, as they thought she did . She was standing outside the door listening to
their conversation. Some people would say that they needed their privacy and that she was being noisy . But she wanted to hear if they were talking
about her. Sure she was eavesdropping but she was needed to know and if she didn't it would eat away at her. "I like that girl. Let me guess she was
The Elena Gilbert . The one you were talking about?" "Yes. That was her Damon. And everything was fine until you had to show up and ruin everything."
Damon didn't ruin everything he just complicated it, she thought. "This is still my house if you don't remember." "You need to stay away from her. She
cannot know that we are vampires." "Trust is very important in a relationship. And I think your hinting that you don't trust her enough with your dirty little
secret." "I do trust her." Stefan said stubbornly.
Inside the boarding house
(Damon's point of view)
"I do trust her." His brother said stubbornly. "It's you I don't trust." "Why wouldn't you trust me. I am your loyal servant." he said sarcastically
bowing down to his brother ."What if I told you I know where she lives. What if I told you that I'm not afraid to tell her my secret. Just imagine , if I
do , do that. Which brother will she pick? The one that lied to her. Or the one that chose to tell her the truth."He said waiting for a reaction from his
brother. "Or neither." His brother replied, "what if she hates vampires. If I tell her, and when I tell her. I want to be sure she is not going to run
away from me." "If I were you I wouldn't wait that long. She might put her sights on some one else. Like you older much more handsomer brother."
He said smirking. He knew that he was pushing his brother's buttons by taunting him like this, teasing him. But he felt like he needed to do it. Once
he entered the house and saw them kissing. It felt like it was 1864 all over again. He felt all the betrayal he felt back then. But this time It came
with a greater force. It probably could have knocked him over or made him tear apart the house if Elena wasn't their. So instead of showing the
anger , and hurt. Although he didn't want to admit it. He felt hurt . In the small period of time that he and Elena had known each other. Which wasn't
that long considering they spent most of it having sex. Since the moment he saw her. He was already captured by her. She reminded him of
Katherine. Well of course she did ,she was a dead ringer for Katherine. But she had something different . She didn't carry an air of superiority like
Katherine. She didn't treat people like shit. She was kind and caring and most of all she had emotions. Unlike Katherine , when I saw her walk into
mystic falls high school. I was surprised. She didn't act like a total bitch .She was kind and caring to the people around her. He even saw her cry
earlier . He stands corrected he saw his brother make her cry. "Why did you make her cry. What did you do to her." I said angrily. "I made the
mistake of accusing her about her parents death."He said. Stefan was now pacing he had his hand on his forehead like he was think of something
but still could not bring him self to understand it. "Tsk tsk tsk. You never learn St. Stefan , you never learn ." "I just wanted to make sure she
wasn't Katherine. I wanted to see if she had emotions."He stopped pacing as if just realizing something for the first time." How did you know that I
made her cry?" "I have my ways." I said with a smirk. "You were watching ! After I told you not to." Stefan sped towards Damon . He grabbed him
by the shirt and threw him into a wall. "Oh you made a huge mistake . Brother" I said. "Now only she will be able to pick between us. She will pick
in the end. And stop your pitiful threats . You are nothing compared to me. You made my human life miserable. And when I turned I told you that I
would give you an eternity of misery. In the end when she picks me . And breaks your heart and you plead with me to rip your heart out . To end
your suffering. I'll look at you and laugh. Just remember ,when you decided to give up human blood and drink bunny blood. That's when I became
the stronger brother." With that he began to head towards the door.
