Chapter two guys! I hurried… so… hope you enjoy!
I decided to add an epilogue… so this will be a three-part fic as it says in the description now.
Review, please :)
This chapter was tough… because I didn't know what to add and what not. It's half T and half M… kind of in the middle. It isn't just for mature readers, but it's not for inexperienced readers either… understood?
I have a comment at the end… check it out! It's about Nian… (For all the Nina/Ian fans out there, you know what that meant)
I do not own anything about TVD or the characters. I only own my thoughts that somehow form into words in my notebook.
Damon POV/No one's
Six months had passed since Elena's transition, and it was still painful. Painful to watch Elena struggle with the cravings and consuming so much whiskey and alcohol that by the time she made it home, she was barely awake, although he had driven her. Even though Damon loved to watch Elena sleep peacefully in his own bed, and probably would like to stay there instead of having to go home in the dark, he knew that in the long run she would feel better in her own house.
That's how he always ended up sharing her bed at night. He had promised his disappearing brother, Stefan, who had shown up a month ago to apologize for everything before leaving again. He had promised to keep his distance, to let Elena figure out her own thoughts by herself, but Damon couldn't refuse Elena when she pulled his arm, motioning that she wanted him to stay with her.

Elena no longer went to school, even though it was her senior year. She continued her studies over in the library of the boarding house, staring outside longingly. Sometimes he sat down and asked her why she never went outside (for she had gotten a daylight ring, courtesy of Bonnie), but she always avoided his directness and instead quizzed him on the history of World War I.
She got her long hair cut to shoulder length and started to curl her hair, not as much as Katherine, but still adding waves to it. Once in a while she added colored hair extensions, which made Damon and Caroline discuss her abrupt and dire change in hushed tones.

A day soon after winter break, Damon was woken up by a great mass of limbs jumping on him, in his own bed for once. Bending down, purposely rubbing her lower body against his own, Elena whispered in Damon's ear,
"I'm bored… wanna have some fun?"
Unsure of what her exact definition of 'fun' was, but having a very good idea at the same time, Damon muffled a groan and pulled the girl off of him, getting up. He slipped on a pair of jeans that made Elena's face heat up and eyes darken at the sight of it. Damon felt a sliver of something he couldn't explain tremor through him.
Leaning close to where Elena sat in a crouching position, he whispered in a deep voice that erupted goose bumps on her thin body, "We'll see about that later."
Laughing to himself at the look of frustration on Elena's face, he walked out of the room and called down the hallway, "Now it's time for breakfast!"
Using vampire speed, Damon sped downstairs and by the time Elena came down in an outfit that made him wonder why he ever refused her, he was already flipping pancakes onto a plate.
Elena slid up next to Damon and wrapped her arms around his lean torso. Just as she opened her mouth to speak, Caroline came barging in through the front door, followed by Bonnie. While Bonnie lingered back in the hall, Caroline stalked into the kitchen and dragged Elena away by her arm. Apologizing to Damon, the blond vampire plopped Elena down onto a couch in the living room.
Astonished, Elena looked at Caroline. "What the hell was that?!"
"That was me saving you from something you need to think over."
Caroline noticed a confused look growing in Elena's eyes, and explained what she meant. "I know you love Damon- God knows how many know- but you need to make sure you're over Stefan before you sleep with his brother as a vampire. Sleeping with another vampire when you're one too, it's different then as a human."
Patting Elena's arm while sitting down next to her, Caroline continued, "Make sure he's not just a rebound."
Elena growled to everyone's amazement and dropped her best friend's hand. Her confused look was replaced with one of pure anger. "I'M NOT. Seriously! Ever since Stefan left, I had time to realize that what I felt for him was purely brother-sister and family." She took a deep breath to calm herself down. "My feelings for Damon? That's totally different. His love just… consumes me in ways I never knew any could. He makes me feel whole, like now as a vampire, I still have a purpose in life." Elena nodded towards the open doorway where a certain blue-eyed vampire stood listening. "That's all I need."
Looking down at her blond friend, Elena's now calm brown eyes pleaded for her to understand. Resigned, Caroline gripped her best friend's hands and looked at Bonnie, who was slowly coming towards the scene. "Come on, group hug!"
Laughing, the trio hugged tightly. The first to pull away, Bonnie smiled lightly and said in a whisper, "Go get you guy. Go convince him."
Elena hugged her two best friends one more time before bouncing off into the kitchen on feather-light heels, her hair bobbing in time.
Caroline's blue eyes glittered with the matchmaking qualities she had in her, while Bonnie's brown eyes were soft with love and hope for her best friend. Both wanted their best friend to be happy.
Running into the kitchen, Elena couldn't stop smiling. As she flung herself into Damon's waiting arms, she knew she had made the right choice.

She knew that too when she pushed the raven-haired vampire onto his bed, tearing off their clothes in the process.
Right before they became one, before both felt at home for the first time in a long time, Damon breathed, "Are you sure? Because I can wait-"
Crashing her lips onto his and sinking down on him, Elena whispered back, "For once, time won't tell." Neither held back their groans as they felt the brilliant sparks and heaven come upon them as they moved together in sync.
At that moment, they knew they were forever.
Time didn't tell for them at that moment.
Time already had, from the very first glance.

So… was that a good way to end it? I hope so!
The epilogue will hopefully be up before tomorrow's TVD!
Anyway, the note: I read somewhere on Twitter that both Nina and Ian smoke. Then I looked it up and found it was true. But Nina smokes more than Ian.
Weird… because his foundation (ISF) is based on the environment… and smoking is bad for it…
Anyway! One more Nian thing: (well two)
Ian: I'm extremely romantic and don't doubt a second that Nina is the only true woman for me!
Joy: What do you want to do in your future?
Ian: I want to be together with my girlfriend!
BOTH DOUBLE AWW.
Anyway. Sorry for the extremely long AN. I'm just in a crazy sort of mood.
Bye!
REVIEW, GUYS! :)
