I'm going to do something a little out of the ordinary. When I read FanFiction, I often like to listen to music while doing so. So like pairing a fine wine with gourmet cheeses, I am going to suggest songs that would fit well with the feel of the chapter. Keep in mind, it isn't the lyrics that match, but sometimes they will, but the tone of the music. For this chapter, I suggest: Coldplay - Paradise. It is upbeat yet romantic and fits well because all Damon wants to do is be in paradise with his beloved. Thanks :)

Chapter 6 - Nine Days

Elijah led Damon out to the park nearby their house and sat on the bench. Damon huffed and proceeded to sit beside him. "Damon," Elijah started, "I'm sure you know about Stefan." Damon raised his eyebrows sarcastically which told Elijah he knew. "Well, Klaus was taking him to get hybrids, he wants to start an army again, and it's the same old game. He needed Stefan to accompany him, but as we know, Stefan is as hard as a sponge; he caved again with little effort on Klaus' part and had gone mad. But now he's coming back for Elena and I was sent to make sure that she's okay. Obviously she's being well taken care of." Damon sunk back into the bench. "Why did Stefan agree to go with Klaus?" Damon asked. "Well," Elijah stated, "Klaus thinks he's found a cure for vampirism, which means that Stefan could potentially be a human again and be on Elena's side. They would be the same. But first, before we get into more detail, you need to explain to me what is going on with dear Ms. Gilbert." Damon explained the situation to Elijah as he promised to keep it a secret, and Elijah, as everyone knows, is a man of his word. "Damon, do you even realize what you've done, you can't keep this up forever; it's a charade!" Damon didn`t care what Elijah thought, and he knew once they had a child, all would be fixed, and Stefan would leave, too heartbroken and confused to return. This could be Damon`s ignorance speaking to him, but what did he care, his throbbing erection, still hard from playing with Elena, told him otherwise.

Elijah warned Damon about having children, and how upset Elena may become, knowing there isn`t anything she can do about it. But it was true. If Stefan came back and discovered their affair, she would rip her head off, in the state that he`s in, he would need some time to recover. A baby, however, would change things. The spell on the baby would keep both the child and her mother safe, and Damon had no problem fighting his brother to keep their relationship alive. This all seemed so complicated and messed up in a way. Lies after lies were creating such a difficult situation, but he knew that after all this was said and done, their life would be normal again, or, as normal as it could be.

Elijah stood up quickly, he was supposed to return to Stephan, but decided he wouldn`t in fear of what Stefan may do, once he found out Elijah was lying. But not in fear of what he would do to Elijah, because sweet gorgeous faced Elijah was strong, however, his cheating Elena was not. Damon shook Elijah`s hand and walked back towards the house, as Elijah walked away, speeding off into the distance. Damon entered the house, slamming the door behind him. Now he was angry Stefan disturbing their fun like this. After almost breaking the hinge, he removed his leather jacket and crept up the stairs slowly, enjoying the scent of Elena's arousal still lingering in the air. His pants fell to the floor halfway up the stairs, then his shirt, until he was just in his boxers. He slowly entered the bedroom to see Elena quietly sobbing, just a little. He rushed up to her and sat on the bed, holding her in his arms. Surprised by his presence, she shuttered and fell into his arms. "Elena, what's wrong?" Damon's sense of concern was sexy and touching. "You weren't there," Elena most definitely making a reference to their previous conversation in shower. Damon thought for a second and then looked into her eyes, finally realizing what she was talking about. "Did you?"Damon asked not sad, but jokingly. "No," Elena admitted. Damon was shocked, I mean, they were so horny and then abruptly stopped when Elijah came forth, he would expected her to finish, but she didn't, she waited for him. This was another very potentially romantic time if it wasn't referring to sex. He was still touched and still very horny. He didn't want to go rough about this just yet, he wanted this to be romantic. Just then a huge yawn burst from Elena's mouth. Damon could see just how badly she needed a nap, it had barely been a week since she almost died, and all this stress was getting to her. As badly as he wanted to have sex with her, he pushed himself to do better. He grabbed a pair of pajamas from her drawer in Stefan's room, that would have to be moved soon, he thought, and brought them in and dressed her sleepy body. She snuggled up to Damon who was also tired. Wrapping her arms around him she whispered, "Thanks." Just to hear her being grateful for Damon made him smile.

Two hours later Damon woke up to movement, lots of it. He opened his eyes to see Elena rapidly humping his leg, her pajamas still on, though he could feel her wetness through her shorts. "Really?" Damon asked huskily. "Oh," Elena didn't seem to realize his would wake him. Quickly he reached his hand down and inside her shorts. He then slipped a single finger into her dripping pussy, her walls clenching hard on just the one. He slipped another in and she wriggled up and down while he pumped them in and out. Sex with Elena was amazing. He was usually selfish with all the other ladies he'd been with, only caring about his own release, but with her, he wanted Elena to cum a million times before he got his own. She moaned as her head thrashed against the pillows, her hair whipping around each time. Then...nothing, she fell asleep. He removed his fingers and went to the hall closet to grab a towel to clean her up. Once again, Elijah interrupted. He was standing in the hallway clicking a pen he had found on the dresser. "Nine days." Elijah's voice stern and smug. "What?" Damon asked impatiently. "You have nine days," he continued, "Until you'll be getting a visit from the ripper."Damon's eyes widened and he tried to argue with Elijah, who sped out of the house faster than lightening. Only nine days? He needed to move fast if he wanted Bonnie's help, she wasn't the easiest person to negotiate with. After all, she was a Bennett.
