CHAPTER 3

When they got to Elena's apartement, she immediately turn on her computer and put her USB inside it.

"You're not really think I'm gonna help you write that novel, are you?" Bonnie chuckled as she poured herself a glass of water.

"I kinda hope so"

"Well, you can't avoid me, Gilbert. So spill"

"Okay, he asked me why I left him that morning and I'm not ready to answer it so I left him and got back to you, and you wanted to leave so here we are" Elena finished her speech and Bonnie jaw dropped.

"Just that? Seriously? Nothing more?" Bonnie shook her head.

"Nope" she popped the "p"

"Oh, I just thought maybe he kissed you or give you his number or something"

"I just...I was so caught up on the thought of searching for him and when it finally happened all I can do just stared at him and I'm blank, all things that I've been prepare to say was gone. Blank. None. Zero. Nada " She sighed and turn off her computer, "But he still the same guy that I admired, the same guy that's been haunting my dreams for the couple of weeks"

"Honey, anything is possible, right? Maybe someday you'll meet him again and that day you'll be ready." Bonnie tried to cheer her up and she just nodded.

She knew Bonnie was right, but she still blame herself for let him go just like that. And obviously she blame herself because why the hell did she not ready?


Bonnie decided to spent the night with her and the next morning she had to leave for work. Because Elena now was a jobless woman she had nothing to do but trying to finish her novel. Her novel basicly about love triangle and supernatural thing. So the main character fell in love with a nice bunny-eating vampire but she trapped a.k.a in love with his heartless sadistic vampire brother too. She finished chapter five and wanted to take a break by calling her mom.

"Hey Mom, how are you?" Her Mom picked up on the second tone.

"Been better, but I can't complain. How are you baby? Have you find any new job yet?"

"No, I still trying to finish my novel. How's John?"

"Well, he came by several times just to say hi or meet Jeremy but basicly he lived with his new family now. Safe and sound." Her mother said.

Elena's parents been divorced for five years because her mother found out that her Dad was cheated with his secretary since Elena was 13 so it has been 9 years . And her father and the secretary already had 2 daughters. So now Elena and Jeremy had a stepsisters, Rose and Katherine Gilbert. Rose was a slut. That was all Elena can say when they met 2 years ago, she always wears high heels and mini skirt. But, Katherine was better because she originally daughter from John and Isobel, while Rose was Isobel and her first husband's daughter.

"Well, that means he moved on and you should too, Mom. I mean you're still young and pretty"

"Young? I'm turning 40 in three months for God's sake!" Her mother always been sensitive when it came to age.

"And I'm turning 23 next month, and if you still wants to see me get married then you have to find me a new dad, cause I don't want John walking me down the aisle" She sighed.

"Okay, it have to secret between us then. I met Grayson Pierce two months ago and we have this...understanding" Her mom said carefully

"What? And you didn't tell me?"

"Like I said, it supposed to be secret. Even Jenna and Jeremy didn't know about this"

"Okay, this is a secret then"

"What about you? Anyone interesting?"

"Well, yeah one guy. His name is Damon and I met him 2 weeks ago. But don't get your hopes up, Mom. I can't promise you that I'll bring him for Christmas" She laughed when she heard her Mom let out a heavy sighed.

"Okay, but you have to at least try okay?"

"Okay, Mom. Love you, bye" She hang up and she continued finish her novel as she pouring down another cup of coffee.


Her phone ringing for like thousand times but she kept ignore it and try to focus on her novel. But when it buzzed and Elena got one message, she regret it. Caroline text says:

Damon asked for your number and I gave it. Is that The Damon that you're always talking and thinking about?

P.S: Answer your damn phone! – Caroline xoxo

My God, this can't be happening.


"Care how could you do that? Gave away my number to stranger is not safe" She let out a heavy sigh as she sat on Caroline's couch.

"Well, he was literally begged for it, Lena. And I couldn't deny his eyes when he did it" Carolines defended herself.

"Yes I understand, but still"

"You haven't answer my question, is that The Damon?" She asked.

"The one and only" Elena answered.

"Wow, this is actually a small world. Oh, and I got a date with Stefan tonight" She cheered, "Do you want to join us? I can ask him to bring his brother"

"No, don't! Don't you dare, Forbes!"

"Okay, okay chill girl. What happen to Elena that wanted to meet him so bad?"

"She...she is unavailable right now. My focus here is my novel so I can stay in New York, I don't have time for guys"

"But you do for Damon" Caroline winked to her as she walked to her bedroom.

Yep she was right, only Damon that could fill her head right now.


"She was the girl you've been talking about? Elena? Caroline's best friend?" Stefan asked his brother as he chose the tie for his date with Caroline tonight.

"Yep" Damon popped the "p" and let out a heavy sigh. "Where are you going?"

"A date, with your girl's best friend. You're not going out tonight?"

"Of course I'm going out tonight, You have to have gray hair first if you wanna see me brooding just like you always did at night" he smirked and Stefan just let out a fake laughter, " I have a date with Mona at The Sinisters tonight"

"Okay, don't care, back to Elena. Wow, fantastic, right?"

"Freaking fantastic, little brother" He answered sarcatiscly, "I didn't even realized I asked for her number to Barbie"

"Who's Barbie?"

"Your blonde date tonight"

"Nice, you got her nickname" Stefan went to his closet leaving Damon alone with his thoughts about one and only, his Elena.

Without even thinking Damon pulled out his Blackberry and looking for Elena's number that he saved under the name "Mystery Girl". He started to clicked "Options" and he just realized he was about to text her. He felt...nervous? Scared? If he was scraed, scared of what? Her possible rejection? . He never felt like that before, ever. He felt like he was gonna throw up. Should he text her or not? Suddenly his hand was no longer feel the present of his phone.

"You were about to text Mystery Girl. Who is she?"Stefan asked, he raised his eyebrows.

"Give me back my phone, Stefan" When Damon called him with his named, it's just means one thing. He was serious.

"Wait, it's Elena, right? You were about to text her. Wow, and I see you sweating too. Are you nerveous?" Stefan chuckled.

"Are you making fun of me? That is not funny at all. Now give me back my phone" Damon throw his hand to get his phone but Stefan is faster. He typed some words then he gave it back to Damon after he said "Sent".

"What did you do?" Damon whispered.

"I helped you, thank you. I have a date to attend to. See you, brother" Then Stefan opened the door and leave his brother alone. He looked down to his phone to see what was Stefan sent to her, and that text made him furious to his little brother. It says:

Hey, it's Damon. I was wondering if we could go to dinner tomorrow? I'll pick you up at 7 ;)

He was gonna kill Stefan.


It's a little short but I hope it's worth the wait!
