Bella pov
The lights were off and i sat on the end of my bed. My shoulders hunched as the tears feel down my cheeks. Silent tears. "What's wrong?" Damon said alarmed. I glanced at him standing at my door. I slowly looked down at the floor.
"Nothing" I sniffed.
"You know you're a crap lair" He said matter-of-factly but with his always playful smile. I tried to smile back but the tears just kept coming. He moved to kneel in front of me. His hands rose to my face and brushed away the hair that had stuck to my cheeks. His fingertips grazed up over my cheekbones to push the stray hair behind my ear. His eyes never left mine and they looked sadden by me being upset. "Now though I appreciate that you are really quite adorable when you cry, Are you going to tell me what's wrong?" he asked again I smiled at his attempts to cheer me up.
"What happened with Caroline's mum just made me think about my own parents" I whispered. He nodded slowly. "I don't think I'm ready to leave them yet"
"Well you don't have to, Caroline hasn't" he soothed.
"Yes but now she knows about her she doesn't want to be near her" I pointed out.
"Yes but in a few days Sheriff Forbes will forget about all of this" He said. "You can just compel your parents to not notice that you don't age" He smile at the last be because it was a bit funny. "Your old enough that your going to have to move out soon anyway, you can always go and see them when you really want to".
"I guess" I whispered. He cupped my face in his hands, looking into my eyes searching them.
"Good" he whispered. That's when I noticed a bottle of scotch on the floor at Damon's side.
"Now are you going to tell me what's wrong?" I said, eyeing the bottle of alcohol. He rolled his eyes, grabbed the bottle and started standing up. "Its Katherine isn't it"
"Katherine, Elena, everyone really" he said walking for the door.
"Katherine's not worth it Damon" I said. He froze. "And as for Elena she likes you". He turned to face me. "You are a good person Damon, deep down you are a good person" I whispered. I closed the distance between us. "You just have to show it" I smiled.
"Bella do you think I could ever find a girl that will like me instead of Stefan?" he asked.
"Of course, I mean I like you, you just have something about you that makes it easy to talk to you and be around you"
"Your probably the first person to think that about me" he smirked. I smiled back at him.
His expression changed, he looked confused, like he was trying to decide something about me. His eyes swept across my face, he looked at my lips before slowly looking back up at my eyes.
"What?" I questioned. I quickly realised what he was going to do, from the resolve in his eyes. Before I could react he leaned forward at vamp speed. Capturing my lips in his. His hand curving around my cheek. His other hand wrapped around my waist pulling me to him. My eyes opened in shock. My hands flew to his shoulders. I pushed him away. He seemed shocked. Looking at me eyes wide. "I'm so sorry Bella" he said. My ears picked up on the car engines turning of in front of the house. Damon and I went silent for a few seconds as we heard Edward knock on the door. "I have to go" I said quickly.
"Bella" Damon called after me. I ran down the stairs, and into Edwards's arms.
"Bella?" he asked. "Are you ok?" He asked his alarmed probably from the fact that the last time we spoke I had to hang up on him and that my eyes were still a bit red from crying.
"Yeah I'm fine" I said nuzzling into his neck. His arms wrapped around my back hugging my tightly to his broad, muscular form. "How was your hunt?" I asked in to the cold surface of his neck. He began talking but I was to occupied peering over his shoulder at Damon. He stood at the top of the balcony looking over the foyer. The look of both guilt and sadness on his darkened but still handsome face.
