Here it is! The second chapter. I hope you all enjoy.


Elena rubbed her eyes as the sun shone through the window. She yawned and stretched her arms over her head. She couldn't believe how well she slept, aside from the few dreams she had about a certain blue eyed man. Ignoring her thoughts, Elena climbed out of bed and put on a pair of jeans and a t-shirt.

As she walked down the stairs she could smell something cooking in the kitchen. "Kat?" She went into the kitchen slowly. She knew her friend wasn't a great cook, but hey, maybe she learned. Elena jumped when she saw a man standing in front of the stove. "Uh… hello?"

The man turned around quickly and smiled. "You must be Elena."

Elena nodded faintly, "and you are?" When she noticed his reaction she quickly added, "I don't mean to sound rude. It's just… I didn't except someone to be standing in my kitchen making food when I woke up."

She let out a sigh of relief when he relaxed. "It's fine, really. I didn't mean to startle you. My name is Elijah."

"Are you friend of Katherine's?"

Elijah smiled and turned back to the food cooking. "Not in the way you think. Katherine used to date my brother, Klaus. I was retuning a few things to her and she mentioned being hungry. So I made her something to eat. I made extra for you." He smiled back at her and put the food on two plates.

"I see you two met." Kat smiled and sat on one of the stools next to Elena. "I told Elijah he didn't have to make anything, but he insisted."

Elijah rolled his eyes and set the plates down. Elena watched them bicker back and forth as she ate her food. Kat noticed the look on her face a smiled. "There's nothing between Eli and myself." Elijah nodded and added quickly, "I'm dating someone. Kat and I are just friends."

Elena nodded and pushed her plate away. "Thank you Elijah. The food was really good."

"Anytime," he smiled and leaned against the counter.

"So Elena, what are you going to do about Damon? There was obviously a connection between you two or else he wouldn't have given you his card."

Elena shook her and looked down. "I'm not going to do anything. He's Damon Salvatore and I'm… well… nothing."

She closed her eyes as she felt Kat's hand on her back. "It never hurts to call. Who knows, maybe he really does want to get to know you."

Elena laughed quietly, "Yeah, right. Damon Salvatore wants to get to know a nobody. I just have a crush. How can you not. But it doesn't matter, he and I would never work."

Before Katherine could answer Elena stood up and walked back up the stairs. She shook her head and looked at Elijah. "I don't know what to do. Stefan said that Damon really liked her. I just don't know how to convince her of that."

"Sometimes you can't make everything work the way you want Kat." Elijah glanced down at his watch. "As much as I'd like to help you, Rose is going to be home soon. I'll call you later."

Katherine nodded and watched Elijah walk out the door. She leaned her head down on the counter and sighed loudly.


"You've been sitting in the same spot all morning. Are you okay?" Stefan laughed and sat down next to his brother.

"I wrote a song." Damon stared at the paper in front of him, "I wrote a song, and it's completely different than anything I have ever written. I have no idea how the fans will react, but I want to play it at the show tonight."

"Whatever you want to do Damon… It always works out for you."

Damon had a cocky smile on his face and picked up the lyrics he'd written. "Oh and I want Elena there. Figure out how to get her at the show tonight." Damon turned on his heel and was out the door.

Stefan shook his head and smiled. He hadn't seen Damon like this in a long time. Not since his ex. He pulled out his phone and dialed the one person he knew could get Elena here.

"Hello?" He smiled when he heard her voice on the other line.

"Katherine? It's Stefan Salvatore."

"Stefan," he could hear her smile over the phone. "To what do I owe this pleasure?"

"I'm actually calling for Damon. He really wants Elena at his show tonight. Is there any way that you could possibly get her to come? The security will let you in. So you don't have to worry about getting a ticket." He continued when she didn't respond. "I know it's a lot to ask and it probably sounds crazy, but he really does want her here."

Kat inhaled and closed her eyes. She had to figure out how to convince Elena to go to the show tonight. She listened as Stefan practically begged her to get Elena there. "Listen, I'll talk to 'Lena, but I don't know if she'll go. She was going on about how she and Damon would never work because of him being who he is." Katherine bit her tongue. Why was she telling him this?

She heard Stefan chuckle on the other line and she snapped out of her thoughts. "Trust me, I wouldn't be asking if Damon didn't want it. But to be honest, I think Damon really feels something for her. Just try to get her to come. Please?"

"Alright, I'll talk to her. But I'm not making any promises. I'll talk to you later Stefan."

"Thank you so much. I'll talk to you soon. Goodbye Katherine."

"Bye Stefan."

Stefan sighed and put his phone into his pocket. If Elena didn't show up, he didn't want to deal with his brother. She needed to come.


Katherine was almost jumping up and down when Elena finally agreed to go to Damon's show. Why is she so excited about this? Elena sighed trying to figure out what was going on. She stood up and went over to her closet when she noticed the time. They had to be at the venue for the show in less than an hour and she had no idea what to wear.

"You look great." Kat smiled as they walked towards the building. Elena looked down at her outfit. She had put on a silver dress that fell just above her knees. She threw on a pair of black boots and put her hair in a low ponytail. She didn't think she looked that good but she smiled and thanked her friend.

The security guard stopped them as they walked up. "Elena Gilbert and Katherine Pierce, Mr. Salvatore is expecting us."

The man nodded and let them inside. "This is crazy!" Elena nearly yelled as she looked back at all the people behind her. She and Katherine were sitting the front row; Stefan had two seats reserved for them.

"This will all be for you one day." Katherine smiled and looked over at her friend. She smiled brightly as she noticed Stefan walking over to them. "Hi Stefan," she said nervously up at him.

Stefan smiled, "hey Kat, I'm glad you're here. Both of you," he looked over at Elena. "Damon will be glad you're here, too." Both Stefan and Katherine noticed the slight blush on Elena's cheeks. "I'll see you two after the show." He turned and hurried back behind the stage.

Elena bit her lip as she looked up at Damon on the stage. He looked amazing up there, and the way the lights hit his eyes left Elena speechless. She couldn't look away.

Damon took off the guitar stepped up to the mic. "Thank you all for coming out tonight. It means a lot that you all are still supporting me." He smiled and continued, "I wrote a new song. It's a little different then what I normally write. I hope you guys like it."

He felt nervous for the first time in a long time as he began singing.

To kiss and tell, it's just not my style.
But the night is young, and it's been awhile and she broke my heart, broke it right in two,
and it took some time but I'm feelin' like I'm finally ready to find, find somebody new.

Elena watched in awe as she moved across the stage and the crowd when wild. This looked so easy for him, so natural. As he moved closer to where she and Kat were sitting his eyes locked with hers and the rest of the room fell away. Elena listened to the lyrics closely as if he was singing them to her. She almost felt as if he was.

'Cause maybe tonight it could turn into the rest of our lives, oh yeah.
Are you ready? Are you ready… to cross that line, put your lips on mine?

Elena heart raced and he smiled at her. Was he singing this to her? He couldn't be. Why would he be? Her thoughts all disappeared as he began singing again.

Do you wanna try?
Are you ready to say good-bye to all these blues?
I wanna kiss a girl
I wanna hold her tight
Maybe make a little magic baby
Don't wanna go too far just to take it slow
But no one should be lonely, I shouldn't be lonely.

I wanna kiss a girl
I wanna hold her tight
Maybe make a little magic in the moonlight
Don't wanna go too far just to take it slow
But I shouldn't be lonely in this big old world
I wanna kiss a girl.

Damon finally pulled his eyes away from Elena's as the crowd whistled and cheered. "Thank you!" He smiled and started his next song.

Elena shook her head. Did that really just happen? Did Damon write that song for her? She glanced over at Katherine who was singing and dancing to the music Damon was singing.

When the concert finally ended Katherine pulled Elena towards the stage where Stefan had went to. He smiled when he saw them both. "What'd you guys think?"

"It was incredible." Elena let out in almost a whisper. "I've never seen anything like that."

She jumped when she heard him laughing behind her. "I'm glad you enjoyed yourself." Damon smiled and approached them. He couldn't stop himself from looking her up and down. She looked perfect. He had to stop himself from grabbing her and kissing her senseless.

"I have to say, I'm impressed Mr. Salvatore. I don't think I've heard so many girls scream like that before."

Damon had to hold back a groan as he thought about her screaming his name. "Please Elena, call me Damon."

Elena nodded, "okay Damon." She smiled as she watched him.

"So Elena," he began as he stepped closer to her. "Would you be interested in going to dinner with me?" He noticed the hesitation in her eyes and quickly added, "I have much to discuss with you, with your music and all."

Elena had to stop herself from frowning when he said it was about business. "Yeah…I guess that would be okay. When would you want to go?"

Damon noticed the disappointment but didn't say anything. It was gone as soon as it appeared. "How about Thursday?"

Elena looked over at Katherine, who nodded in approval. "Thursday it is."

After they left Elena sat on her bed and stared at her blank notebook. She needed to write a song. She needed something new to sing. She finally laid back on the bed and looked up at the ceiling until she fell asleep, thinking about the blue eyed singer, anxiously waiting for Thursday to come.
