Chapter 5: The Kiss & Bonding Time

Elena's P.O.V

I'm sitting in the class room and it's the last class before lunch where I have to kiss Kol. It's disgusting to even think about it, but I have to do it for Damon also I noticed that Damon is doing an amazing job on looking like he's heartbroken all day.

When the bell rings out for lunch, I head for the cafeteria to meet Kol even though I really don't want to, but if I don't want Kol to ruin my life then I have to. I hurry to my locker first when I see Kol walking towards me and all I can think is 'oh, something wicked this way comes'.

"Hi Elena, sleep well last night?" He asks with an evil grin.

"You're an ass, Kol! Now tell me what I need to do to get rid of the picture!" I snap.

"It's simple, Elena! You're gonna tell me how you broke up with him and if I believe you then we go to the second part of my plan where you kiss me in front of him when I've see his hurt expression you can delete the picture." He says amused.

"Fine." I snap looking like I'm about to break to make him believe it. "I told him that I-." I break down to make it believable. "That I only pretend dated him to make Stefan jealous and when Stefan didn't care I didn't need him anymore." I sob struggling not to smile because he bought every word of it.

"That was perfect, Elena! Really mean! I wish I could have seen it. Now to the kissing part." He says looking at Damon who walks to the cafeteria, but then stops to look at me with hurt and betrayal in his eyes. He was so good at it that even I believed him and I started worrying if it was real, but I know I have to do this now before I can ask him about it.

"Let's just get this over with." I say annoyed while he places his hand on my cheek caressing it and I resist the urge to push his hand away as he leans in. I close my eyes not wanting to look at his face as his lips touches mine and I feel disgusted! It's one this that he's an ass, but he's also the worst kisser in the world and I suddenly feel happy about bringing my toothbrush knowing I would need it today.

He's really trying to put feeling into the kiss and I go along with it not enjoying a second of it also happy that I skipped breakfast otherwise I might throw up in his face and that wouldn't have helped my case.

It's finally over when he pulls away looking over at Damon who looks like someone hit him and I see a tear rolling down of his cheek makes me struggle not to cry as well. Damon walks away fast while Kol is standing there looking like he has the time of his life.

"Well this is the most fun I have had in a while and I wish it didn't have to end, but a promise is a promise." He says handing me his phone where I delete the picture and making sure that he didn't have another one before giving him his phone back.

"Now Elena, I'm keeping your secret, but only as long as you two are broken up and yes I do know that when you graduate there's nothing I can do about it anymore, but at least it'll be fun until then." He says with another evil grin before turning around and walking away, but then he stops and looks back at me.

"And Elena? You're a great kisser and if you ever feel like having some real fun then you can come to me. It's an open invitation." With that, he leaves and I can't help, but think 'like I would ever have any kind of fun with Kol'.

I walk almost run to the bathroom as fast as I can to brush my teeth because it was the most disgusting thing in the world kissing Kol and right after I walk to the cafeteria to our usual table feeling lucky that apparently no one saw me kissing Kol. I spend the rest of the school day wondering if Damon is okay and how he was able to play it this well because acting was never his thing.

After school I drive to 'The Secret Lair' where Damon and I planned to meet after school yesterday to talk about everything there happened at school today because let face it our lives are spinning out of control. I drive to the woods parking my car a good walk from the lair to make sure no one would see our cars the same place. I walk the rest of the way to see that he's car is also parked a good distance from the lair and I walk in seeing him fixing up the lair.

"Damon." I say softly then he turns around walks over to me hugging me and I hug him back. "Are you okay?" I ask concerned.

"I am now, but this was the hardest thing I ever had to watch." He says softly as we pull away.

"Yes it was awful especially kissing Kol because that was disgusting, but you played it very well I even believed it." I say horrified that he might be angry with me; he notices my expression and hugs me again.

"I hated that you kissed him as well, but at least the picture is gone now and that's all that matters in this case." He says caressing my cheek. "About the acting I knew I could only pull this off if I thought of something sad, something I couldn't bear if it happened, and that you Elena. I thought of what would happen to me if all this had been happening for real. I mean it did happen and it was real, but if you had succeeded in breaking up with me I wouldn't have been able to keep it together." He confesses and I can really see the truth in his eyes, not more than a second later he kisses me passionately.

"Damon, I could never stop loving you, not ever." I say crashing my lips unto his feeling happy that the proof is at least gone. He kisses me back hungrily with love, passion and lust, knowing what he's thinking I unbutton he's shirt throwing it away. He takes of my dress as I kiss his neck, he start to caress me cheek and I wrap my hands around his neck unable to resist him one more second.

Like on a cue I feel his erection against my belly, we almost rip our remaining clothes off each other and I wonder how we have been able to resist each other before. He pushes me up against the wall before lifting me up; I lock my hands around his neck and my legs around his waist.

He pushes inside me forcefully and I gasp loudly, I feel his hands on my waist guiding me fast up and down making our hips meet at every thrust. Within minutes I feel my release hitting me powerfully and my release trigger his, once we both stopped releasing he stops his movements and rests his forehead against mine before we lie down on the mattress.

I look at my watch to realize that I have to leave right now if I want to meet my brother on time so I get up and get dressed. Damon looks confused at me before he speaks up.

"Elena? Are you okay? Where are you going in such a hurry?" He asks softly and I turn my attention to him.

"Sorry Damon, but I got to go. I'm meeting my brother at school at four when he gets off." I say kissing his lips softly.

"Oh, too bad because I was really enjoying this." He pouts and I kiss him softly.

"Me too, but I promised my brother to spend some bonding time today because I've been distracted a lot lately so we haven't talked in a while." I say and I see Damon's smile knowing that he's just teasing me.

"Go Elena, It's okay. I know how close you are with your brother." He says getting up to wrap his hands around my waist and pulling me in for a kiss one last time.

"Damon, if you keep on doing that then I'm gonna be late." I say struggling to leave him.

"I know, but it's nice anyway." He says kissing my neck.

"Damon! You're making it very hard for me to leave maybe you should go home and spend some bonding time with you brother." I say trying to get him to go home as well.

"Why? I'm really enjoying this." He smirks sucking on my pulse point and I moan.

"Damon." I warn him.

"Ah, okay, okay! I'll go home and talk to my brother." He says letting go of me.

"That's my Damon." I say kissing him one more time not really wanting to go.

"I love when you say that." He kisses me back softly. "But if you don't leave now then I won't let you." He warned in a teasing tone.

"Fine, I'll leave now, but I'm texting you later." I say before walking to my car and driving back to school where I pick up Jeremy since we drove to school together today.

"Hi Elena, so what are we doing today?" My little brother asks me as he gets inside the car.

"Well, I was thinking that we could go to dinner on me?" I say sweetly wanting to make up for lost time.

"I would love that, but only if you can afford it otherwise we can hang out at home." He says sweetly and that's why I love my little brother always so sweet.

"No, I can afford it and I thought it would be fun for us to hang out other places than at home." I say driving to Mystic Grill for dinner, when we get there we walk in and sit by the table the waiter shows us to. She hand us the menu that we basically knows as good as our own house. "So what do you want?" I ask him sweetly as the waiter is standing there waiting for us to order.

"I think I'm gonna go with the usual burger and fries, what about you?" He asks closing the menu.

"I think I'll take the same for once." I say handing our menu's to the waiter as she leaves to get our food. "So how's school?" I ask him softly.

"It's hard, but I can keep up." He says sweetly as he looks up at me and I can see that he's telling the truth. "Can I ask why you're not with Stefan anymore?" He asks looking at me to see if he's allowed to ask.

"Of course you can ask, it's because we both moved on even when we were still together and then decided to be friends." I say softly.

"He didn't hurt you, right?" He asks concerned.

"No he didn't hurt me, it's all fine, Jer." I say sweetly and he looks relived.

"Good because if he did I would have killed him and I'm sure Damon would help me." He says protectively. He knows that Damon and I are close because Jeremy and Damon is also close friends.

"I'm sure you would; have you talk to Damon lately?" I ask wondering what he knows.

"Yeah, I did. It's so weird that he's your teacher now, you guys are best friends." He says looking weirded out about Damon being my teacher.

"Yeah, I must admit he's a good teacher, but I wish he wasn't my teacher." I say thinking of all the problems it brought with it.

"Yeah I bet, I mean I know how into each other you are, you two just never admitted it." He says with a smirk.

"You know I like him?" I ask confused because I never told anyone.

"Yeah, it's all over your face when you spend time with him, but it's the same for him I can just see it in his face the way he looks at you. I'm totally fine with you two as longs as you're not together when he's your teacher because that's weird." He says completely oblivious to the fact that I've just been with him.

"Yeah, I guess." I laugh a little. Jeremy and I spend a couple of hours at the grill talking and playing pool before we go home to spend the evening with our parents because we're both pretty close to our parents as well even though we're teenagers and supposed to hate them, but we don't.

"Hi 'Lena, Hi Jer." Our mother says as we walk through the door.

"Hi mom, Jer and I just spend some bonding time at the grill and we were wondering if you and dad have time to a family game night?" I ask sweetly as I kiss my mom on her cheek.

"Of course, your dad and I was hoping to spend some time all of us tonight since you two have been so busy lately." She says finding some candy as she always do when we have our family game night and we all sit down on the couch around the table. We just spend the evening together like we used to before and I'm happy that we're having our family game night again like old times.

Damon's P.O.V

I went home after spending some alone time with Elena in 'Our Secret Lair' and I'm not too happy that we couldn't just stay there because I love Elena so much. I always want to be with her, but I never imagined that she felt the same way and now I'll do anything to keep her to make her happy.

I want to be with her for as long as I live, I want us to move in together, have kids with her and grow old with her. She's all I'll ever needed because I know I can't survive without her, but with her I know I can survive anything or at least fight until my last breath because she makes me want to be better to be someone she deserves.

When I walk inside, I think for a second and then decides to take her advice about brother bonding time because despite everything I do love my brother. I walk upstairs to knock on Stefan's door hoping that he's home and alone in there.

"Come in." I hear Stefan say.

"Hi Stef, I was wondering if you're busy tonight?" I ask hopefully and he turns around to look at me.

"No, I'm not busy tonight. Something in mind?" He asks confused.

"Well yeah, remember when we were closer and used to play video games together?" I ask feeling bad about letting our relationship get to this.

"Yeah, I do." He says looking sad, but then smiles at me.

"I miss that a lot, so I was wondering if we can do that again." I ask as I see a smile appear on his face.

"I've missed it too, Damon. Yeah I would love for us to have a game night again." He says getting up to follow me to my room because we always had our game night there. "Hey Damon." He says and I turn around to look at him. "I'm sorry that I dated the girl you liked, I didn't know you felt that way about her and that she felt the same about you." He says looking a little shameful and I feel bad for him because he had no reason to feel bad.

"Stef, don't feel bad about it okay? I could have told her how I felt, but I didn't and she didn't, so it's not your fault. I feel so bad for being in love with your ex-girlfriend." I say feeling my guilt return.

"Damon, don't feel guilty about it, okay? I forgave you, Elena and I was always better as friends we both knew it before we were willing to admit it. So what do you think about a clean slate? Elena is my friend and your girlfriend?" He says with a smile and right there I know why I missed my baby bro because we always cared about each other.

"That sounds good, but as I'm sure you already heard Elena is my student now so I'm not allowed to be with her at this point." I say knowing I can't tell my brother that I'm dating one of my students.

"Come on, Damon. I know you and you don't care about rules and I know Elena she always listened to you and that usually got her into trouble that she didn't care about. I know for a fact that you can't let each other go." He says seeing right through me.

"God! You know me too well, yes we're still together, but we're keeping it a secret until she graduates." I say in defeat.

"I just knew it! Don't worry I'll keep you secret and I have your back." He says and right there I could have kissed him for being so supportive when I'm dating his ex-girlfriend.

"Thanks Stef, now let's game." I say excitedly about spending some time with my brother once again.

"Sounds good, but wait! We forgot snacks." He says with a big smile running downstairs to grab some snacks and we spend the evening together playing some different PS3 games like Tekken where I always kick his ass, but I must say he got better.

Elena's P.O.V

After I spend the evening with Jer and my parents playing games I say goodnight to them all and walk to my room feeling exhausted. This day was good if you count out kissing Kol, but this day could have been a disaster so it turn out pretty awesome anyway.

I change into my pajamas and get into bed, I just wish Damon could be here with me, but it's too risky if someone who wanted to hurt Damon and I found out, so I have to settle with texting him.

Are you awake? Xoxo Elena. I smile as I receive a reply.

Yes, I couldn't sleep before I've said goodnight to you. :) How was the bonding time? Xoxo Damon.

I can't sleep either before I said goodnight. :) The bonding time was good; I really missed spending time with Jer and my parents. What about you? Did you spend time with Stef? Xoxo Elena.

I'm happy to hear that. :) Yeah, I took your advice and spend some bonding time with Stef. It was like old times where we used to game all night. Thank you for suggesting it. Xoxo Damon.

Oh yeah, I remember the nights where you two wouldn't let me come over because of your gaming night. :) I'm happy to hear that it's like that again. Your welcome I just wanted you and Stef to have fun like you used to. Xoxo Elena.

Yeah that was fun, you were always mad at us when we did that. Xoxo Damon. I just know he's sitting with a teasing smirk on his face right now.

Ha ha, so funny, Damon. Not. :( I really miss you, Damon. Even when you're teasing me. :) Xoxo Elena.

Yeah, I'm funny like that. :-p (I know your rolling your eyes at me) I miss you too, Elena. I wish you could be right here in my bed by my side. Xoxo Damon. I giggle.

Yes I did roll my eyes at you! I really want to be in your bed by your side. Xoxo Elena. I blush even though he can't see.

We can see each other tomorrow after school though. Xoxo Damon. I smile wishing that it could be tomorrow after school already.

I'll look forward to that. Good night Damon. Xoxo Elena.

Me too. :) Good night, Elena. Sleep tight and dream about me. :-p Xoxo Damon. I roll my eyes at him again knowing that he's sitting with his teasing smirk again.

Hmm, We'll see, but in the meantime sweet dreams about me. :-p Xoxo Elena. I tease back smile for myself.
