Hi again! I was a little surprised that I am the only one who actually made a story with a D/E coupling... GO ME!! Oh, yes. You know I'm good. Well, anywhozle, here's chapter two!

Chapter Two: Unexpected Meeting

Elena ran back to her house for a quick stop. All she really needed was money and clothes. But mostly money to survive.

She 'borrowed' a few hundred dollars and continued on her way. The streets were oddly empty, and no one inside their houses seem to paying no attention to who or what was outside. There could have been a giant glob of a monster and no one would care. Elena rolled her eyes at the oh-so-true thought.

She neared the entrance of the town, didn't even bother to look through it just in case that certain someone was here. But somehow, she knew he wasn't. She turned back to take a last glance at the quiet town. Saying a mental goodbye, she turned at went on her way.

Stefan moaned and felt around on his bed for Elena. Feeling only cotton sheets, he glance up to see... nothing.

He shot up, looking all around the room. No one in there but him.

He briskly got off the bed and got dressed, then headed out the door. His green eyes scoping out the land before him. No one in sight. Cursing, he headed to her house, hoping she went there in case she thought that her aunt might worry. But once he got there, he knew she wasn't in there. He didn't know how, he just did.

He turned around. The streets were empty. Kinda like the-whole-human-population-has-ended kind of way.

An idea popped into his head. He'd go check out Matt's house. If she wasn't there, then he'd go to Bonnie's house. He'd go anywhere if he thought she was there.

Elena was walking down a semi-busy highway. Every car that went by sent shivers down her spine. She didn't know why, though. Maybe it was because she had the strange feeling that Stefan woke up and discovered that she's gone.

Suddenly, a sleek, shining black car pulled up beside her on the empty road. Elena froze, trying to gather a explanation if it was Stefan. She only knew two people with cars like those.

The passenger side, tinted window rolled down, unveiling a very handsome face. With black eyes. And a smile that was creeping on his face.

"Hey, what are you doing out here?" Damon said, leaning on his steering wheel.

Elena glanced up through her long, black lashes. Her icy blue eyes fierce with excitement. "Looking for you, actually."

His eyebrows shot up, surprised by her answer.

"Can I get in? My legs are actually kinda killing me."

He make a wickedly handsome grin. "Sure."

She opened the door, climbed in, and once she shut the door, Damon shot off down the road. Heading into a direction Elena never thought she'd be traveling to.

So what do you think? I know I need to make my chapters longer... but just tell me okie? R&R!
