Chapter 9,
Elena's POV,
Finally all my assignments were done! Completed, I loved it. I dressed for our date tonight, me and Damon. I was so excited! I decided on wearing a Whipstitched Leather Jacket, Reptile-Print Silk Blouse & Reptile-Print Laced Jeans, it was Gray leather. Sectioned construction with tonal whipstitching. Round neckline open front. Shoulder patches. Long sleeves with lace-up detail. Lace-up panels down back. Ruffled, asymmetric hem. Made in Italy.
Satisfied with my appearance I went to the living room,
"Aunt Jenna, I'm going out." I called and was shocked to see Alaric standing COMPLETELY naked with a sheepish Jenna,
"Uh... I'm naked. So do you want a Chunky bunny?" He said, holding a chocolate bar, blushed and went away,
"I am so sorry you had to see that." My aunt replied,
"Its okay. No problem... You... ah have fun. I'm going out." I said,
"On a date? Damon. Well you look gorgeous Elena." She said and I smiled,
"Thanks... Bye." I said and went into my car and sped away, I reached the Boarding house in a little while and rang the doorbell,
"Hey E..." Damon said before he stopped in his tracks making me worry. Alot.
"Damon? What is it? I overdid the dress didn't I?" I said,
"No! No, you just look really beautiful. Come in." He said smiling and I felt relieved. We made our way inside to the dining room and I was taken by the sweet and delicious aroma that was coming from the dining room.
"So what are we having?" I asked,
"Well, everything we are having except the wine of course is made by yours truly. And everything including the wine is Italian. I have made for us, Cacciatore, Italian pancetta, Tortellini in broth, gelato ice cream and Sangiovese di Romagna wine." He said,
"Okay, I only understood the Tortellini and ice cream part." I said sincerely as he laughed,
"It is old Italian food, you will love it. I assure you." He said. The table was beautiful, it up with the candles and good china and beautiful linens, it was just magnificent.
"Wow." I said and Damon smiled, I realized he had done a lot of work for me so after he set the table I gave him a passionate kiss,
"If I knew that cooking food would get this kinda reaction from you, I'd have done it ages ago." He said,
"Wow." I said after dinner, the food was really good. We were talking and laughing, as we made our way to the our lips touched. A spark went between us and we both shivered at the contact.
I sensed his vampire senses were going haywire at how soft our lips were. My body was tingling at how damn hot I felt in the middle of her thighs.
I pulled back and looked Damon in his eyes.
I knew he wanted to explore this more. All our pent up lust inside did all the talking.
I grabbed him and laid him back on the bed, straddling his waist. I kissed him, his tongue slipping inside my mouth as his hands ran up and down my body. He kissed me back, pulling at my bottom lip. I ground against him as he bit at my lip. I moaned in his mouth.
No words could be said between us as Damon took off my blouse and jacket, throwing it on the side. My hands struggled with his shirt and I ripped it from his body when it wouldn't come undone. His shaky fingers nervously pulled , my shorts down my firm thighs and tonged legs. I knew He couldn't believe that he was finally being able to have sex with me. He couldn't call it a fuck anymore.
It was making love. ...
We were both trying to catch our breaths.
"That was amazing."
Damon smiled cocky. His famous smirking appearing across his face. "I rocked your world so bad, you might not even make it through the night."
Elena laughed and rolled her eyes. That was the Damon that she knew...the Damon that she loved.
"Oh please." Elena playfully slapped his chest. "I rocked your world."
Damon's POV, Elena was peacefully sleeping, we had had a great time, but unfortunately I had to ruin it. I had to tell her. How? I didn't know, if I'd just tell her like that she might now believe me and I cant have that. The diary! I have to show it to her.
So I sneaked into Stefan's room. I found the 2010 edition of his diary and laughed at how gay it was, it was Pink! I mean come outta the closet Stef. Still snickering I took the diary to our room and saw Elena was awake,
"Hey. Where'd you go? I missed my pillow." She said pouting,
"Hey there gorgeous, look we have to talk." I said as I sat down next to her.
"Okay... Whats on your mind, are we okay?" She asked worriedly and I felt her heartbeat speed up.
"No, no, we're okay. I just... look, I wanted to give you sometime and thing to cheer up. I thought I'd tell you later, but I just cant hide things from you." I rambled and she took my hand,
"Look if you have something to say like you want to break up, then you should be worried. Other than that I can handle anything." She said and I felt relieved, relieved that I could tell her and relieved that she was just as afraid of us splitting as I was,
"Okay look, a few hours before you came, I found Stefan writing this. Then I confronted him about it and he agreed to it. I want you to read this." I said and handed her the diary.
I saw her read the diary and I also hovered over it.
I always loved Katherine and I know this is wrong but my love for Elena was there or was it really? I know that I may have used her to extinguish the fire in my heart that Katherine left. But what could I do? I was helpless.. Should I tell Elena what I truly felt for her? No, she is happy and I cant do that to Elena the way Katherine did that to Damon. I will let her believe I loved her with ALL my heart and pray to god that she never finds out. Because then, then I'd never be able to face her.
I saw her reading these lines again and again, reading them with so much anger it could have burnt the paper, I didn't know what to do, what did she want to do? Should I call Stefan? Should I pull her close, should I kill Stefan, should I go? I didn't know so I said the only to words that came to my mind,
"I'm sorry." I said,
"Its not your fault." She said hoarsely, she was angry and hurt.
"I shouldn't have..." I said before she cut me off,
"Its not your fault Damon. I just... now I know what my worth was. A fire extinguisher, a replacement, second best." She said,
"I... I felt the same way. When I found out that Katherine never loved me, she always loved Stefan. It felt as I was only used as a replacement or as a sex toy and most of all, second best. I think you should talk to him." I said opening up about my past,
"Can I do it tomorrow? Could you ask him to meet him at my house tomorrow night?" I asked,
"Ofcourse. I'll call him." I said and went to call Stefan. -
