Okay. Here is the last chapter I had done. What should I have Damon ask Elena to do? Any and all suggestions will be considered. Please be a dear, and review :)

Chapter 8: Convince Me

Elena found Damon where she thought he'd be which was sitting at the bar at the Grill. She also noticed that Stefan had been true to his word because he was at the bar with Damon. The two brothers appeared to be in heated discussion if the look on Damon's face was any indicator.

"What do you want? Shouldn't you be stocking up on hair gel and celebrating your return from the dark side with Elena?" Damon quipped as he took a gulp of his bourbon.

"Look, Damon, I didn't come here to fight. Elena asked me to find you. She was concerned that…," he started but was abruptly cut off by Damon.

"Save it! Concerned? Yeah, right! She's probably ecstatic that you're back to your old boring, morose self. Now the two of you can skip off into the sunset because everything is fucking sunshine and unicorns again."

Stefan frowned. "Now there's where you're wrong, Damon. It's you that she wants. I fucked this one up and she told me so. Hell, she even slapped me for it. You would know that if you didn't storm off like you usually do."

"Tell me another good one, bro. Like tell me that Katherine didn't just keep me around for a good roll in the hay. Tell me the sky is frigging green! Tell me anything else, because I don't buy this bullshit!"

Stefan let out an exasperated breath and said, "Well, why don't you ask her yourself. She's right behind you." He gestured for Damon to turn around.

Damon turned. He had a sarcastic smirk on his face as he looked at Elena. She didn't react to his expression, but instead ignored it and said, "It's the truth, Damon. I never lied to you, but here you go again proving my point. You're trying to sabotage things again like you usually do."

"Oh, come on, Elena! We both know that you'll always love Stefan. Me, I was just a walk on the wild side. I was a part of who you used to be. You would've never stayed with me if he was back to the way he was. Well, he's back, so now the two of you can live blissfully ever after," he sneered as took another swig of his drink and got up to leave.

Elena put her arm out blocking his path. "Yes. Yes, I still do love Stefan, but not in the way that you think. How he and I were will never be the same. Too much has happened; too many things have changed. I love you. YOU, Damon! Now stop trying to push me away! I'm not playing you the way Katherine did."

"Nice speech, Elena, but how can I believe otherwise when you told me once that it's always going to be Stefan? I..," Damon started but was silenced by Elena as she grasped him, pressing her lips against his in a searing kiss.

After they broke apart all he could do was stare and then he gripped her firmly, grasping the back of her head and returned her kiss fervently. In the back, Stefan looked away feeling awkward. He waited until they broke apart.

Elena took hold of Damon's chin and asked, "Does that feel like I'm still in love with Stefan?"

He looked at her then at Stefan who seemed uncomfortable but nodded in affirmation of what she had said. Then he told him, "If you hung around long enough, you would've heard our conversation and found out for yourself that it's you who she wants." Then Stefan looked at Elena and asked, "Are we good now?"

She nodded and then Damon and she watched him leave. When Stefan was gone, she looked up at Damon and said, "Now what shall we do?"

Damon rose a brow and smirked and said, "Oh, I can think of a few things."
