Serena reached to grab her iPhone from her limited edition Prada tote and swore loudly when she spilled her hot gingerbread latte on her shoe.
" Lena' are you gonna be okay? I'm just going to run to the bathroom and wipe off my shoe."
Elena smiled brightly, truly feeling like she could manage being along and shooed her friend along. "C'mon Serena, I know those are Marc Jacobs holiday edition flats, go! I will be fine!"
Serena tottered as fast as she could to the bathroom not wanting to leave her friend alone for a minute.
Elena stood up and went to the counter to put more sugar in her Dark Cherry Mocha, and realized somebody bumped in to her.
She turned to face him, a man with soft-looking black hair and stunningly blue eyes and he was in a gorgeous suit.
She stuttered, "Hi,"
He smiled at her, "Hey, I'm Damon Salvatore. Your Elena Gilbert right?"
Elena blushed, "Yeah"
Suddenly, Damon's phone beeped and he glanced at it. "I'm sorry but I have to go now, here's my card"
Damon dug in his pocket and handed her a card with his name, number and occupation. Elena looked at it and her eyes grew wide, lawyer. He was a lawyer!
"Wait! Damon, are you a divorce lawyer?"
Damon turned to face her, " Yeah, uh, why?" he asked, feeling a little bit shy because after all, he just had spoken to ELENA GILBERT. She was a famous celebrity and was known for her amazing relationship with her husband for a year and a half, Matt"Mattie" Donovan. Why was she asking him if he was a divorce lawyer? Did she want a divorce?
Elena sort of let out a little sigh and turned to face him when her phone beeped and signalled that hid had a text. Elena saw it was from Nick, and quickly opened it, it was the list of the best lawyers in NYC. Damon was at the very top of the list.
She quickly put her phone away and whispered, " Um, I want a divorce."
Damon curiously looked up at her and motioned for her to sit down, she sat and he said, " Okay, but are you sure you want me as your lawyer? Wouldn't you prefer a divorce lawyer who, uh, has done celebrity cases before?"
Elena looked up at him and shyly told him that her friend Nick, had texted her a list of the best lawyers in NYC and that he was at the top of the list.
Damon nodded and asked her to tell him a bit about the divorce and why she wanted one and Elena told him shyly that she didn't feel comfortable with Matt anymore and that he didn't treat her well. But Damon could clearly she didn't seem very comfortable speaking about why she wanted a divorce in the first place, he leaned forward a little bit.
" Miss. Gilbert, would you prefer to discuss this at my office?" asked Damon, " or you could you just write me a letter explaining this and we could meet this Saturday? Some of my clients prefer to write me letters."
Elena nodded slowly seeming to be much more relieved and shakily spoke, " I'll write you a letter"
Damon whispered gently to her, " Okay, send it to my office."
The beautiful girl sitting in front of Damon twirled her hair nervously and looked at the sexy man in front of her with the stunning blue eyes and opened her mouth, " Thank you Mr. Salvatore. It was nice of you to stay when you had to leave a bit earlier, remember your phone?"
He smiled brightly at her, " Oh, it was just my buddy, he just wanted me to bring over some beer. Nothing important."
Elena shot him a lopsided smile and walked outside to the limo waiting outside and climbed inside, as soon as she opened the door, she realised that Serena had never came back from the washroom. But then across the street, she saw a tall, blonde, statuesque figure that was her BFF quickly hurry across the street and jump into the limo.
Serena was holding a tiny tiffany bag along with her purse and she raised her eyebrow and Elena's dreamy expression.
" Where did you go?" asked Elena curiously
" Well, after I came out of the bathroom, you were talking to that hottie and you seemed fine so I snuck out the back door. I know the barista, I dated him once." Serena winked playfully at Elena
Elena laughed, Serena was known in the papers and gossip magazines because of random dating escapades.
Serena slid along the leather seat so she was right next to Elena, " Soooo, spill"
Elena giggled again and turned to face Serena, " I found a divorce lawyer."
Serena's eyes got the size of saucers before she slid back onto her seat with a huge smile on her face.
The limo arrived at Serena's movie set and she kissed Elena on the cheek before waving and strutting inside, while looping her arm with the director who was waiting outside for her.
Elena smiled and told the driver to go to her penthouse again and when she tried to pay him at the end he told her it was not necessary.
Elena must have looked extremely confused as the driver explained that Serena's agent had paid for her limo already. Elena nodded and hurried back inside to her penthouse with her purple glittery pen in her hand.
Letter is next chapter! I HOPE YOU guys understood that Elena is not comfortable with Damon yet. She is only comfortable with Serena,
