What I Want Is You
Chapter 3- Secrets and Surprises
DamonxElena
Let's just say; Elena was speechless. So many questions were running through her head such as "What the hell are you doing here?"
"Well, I do own the place." Damon said reading Elena's mind. Elena's cheeks flushed red in embarrassment. "I-umm. Damon I thought-" Elena stuttered. "Well from the expression on your face, you obviously thought wrong. Miss Elena." Damon said and smirked. Yep, he hadn't changed a bit.
"What are you doing here? In Mystic Falls." Elena asked urgently. She needed answers NOW. "Well I could be asking you the same question." Damon said. "Last time I checked you were on your pretty way to-what was it? Oh, yes South Carolina, I think." Damon said. Elena put her hand on her hip, and tilted her head to the side in annoyance.
"Oh, I'm sorry. Please, where are my manners?" Damon said sarcastically. "Please, come in." He said and smirked. Elena looked at Damon suspiciously, but managed to walk inside of the house.
The place was covered in dust. It seems Damon hadn't came much later than Elena did. "Two weeks, before you to be specific." Damon said with a 'matter-of-fact' tone, reading Elena's mind again. Elena rolled her eyes. "Please stop doing that." Elena asked. "Oh anything for you, Miss Elena." Damon said and grinned. "And please stop calling me that." Elena said. "Alright Kitten."
"Damon!" Elena yelled. Damon was on her last nerves, but she wasn't going to get any answers with violence. "Okay, fine fine. ELENA." Damon said. Elena smiled. But now, it was down to business.
"Well obviously I have a lot of questions to ask you." Elena said. "As I, you. But ladies first." Damon said cockily. The two joined in the parlor, or living room, or whatever they called it, and sat on the couch, knowing today was going to be a LONG day.

"Let the questions begin." Damon said. "Or wait lets make this more fun. You ask a question, I give you a answer. Then I get to ask a question, and you have to give me an answer." Damon said. Elena nodded. "Fine, whatever." Elena said. "Alright then, go on ahead."
"Alright so why did you come back to Mystic Falls?" Elena asked.
"Well why did you Elena?" Damon asked. "No fair. You can't answer a question with a question." Elena said. "Fine, fine. But probably the same reason you did. Missing home, if you don't remember this is my birth place. And I was interested in who I would find still lurking in this dead beat town." Damon said. "I can see now, my visit is most definitely not a misfortune." Damon said. Elena blushed.
"Well now my turn. Oh, yay." Damon said sarcastically. "Alright lets see. If you knew or 'heard' I wasn't taking residence in Mystic Falls, why did I find you on my Front Porch?" Damon asked. Elena was silent for a moment. She just shrugged. "I dunno. I was just curious, and was hoping..." Elena paused. "That your dearest Stefan would be home, waiting for your arrival this whole time?" Damon tried to answer for Elena.
'Well he wasn't completely wrong.' Elena thought. "Well I'm not going to say 'no'." Elena said. Damon was kind of disappointed that Elena wasn't here to see him, but he wasn't about to tell her that. "My turn!" Elena almost yelled.
"When's the last you heard from...Stefan?" Elena asked. "Ah, lets see. Let me back track." Damon said. "Wow, that long huh." Elena said and looked to the floor. "Now don't worry just yet. I think maybe six or seven, give or take, months ago. We met up, or I 'found' him in Strasbourg , a little town outside France. Very beautiful, indeed." Damon said. "And did he mention anything about-me?" Elena asked.
"Woah, now don't get ahead of your self. You already asked a question." Damon said. Elena saddened her eyes and tilted her head in plead. "Alright fine." Damon said. "So does he? Ever talk about me or anything?" Elena asked. Damon looked to the floor, sad. "All the time." Damon said sinking in the words to his brain so he would never forget.
He could see Elena, after all this time still loved Stefan. And with out a doubt, he knew Stefan still loved Elena to. No matter what.
"Your turn." Elena said. Damon was silent for a moment, but came back to reality soon enough. "Well...After you left Mystic Falls, when you left Stefan, did you ever start dating other men?" Damon asked, very very curious. Damon smirked with pleasure to know Elena's answer. Something he could use against her in the future. Elena's face flushed white. "Okay well don't tell Stefan." Elena asked. Damon smirked. Damon was never the one to keep secrets. But he might consider this once for Elena.
Damon simply nodded. "Alright, well for a while no. I couldn't even look at another guy, but since I didn't see him ever anymore...yeah. I'm kinda actually in a relationship now." Elena said shyly. "Then why do you keep on asking about him?" Damon asked.
"Nope you just asked a question." Elena said. "Hey, I made an exception for you. Now its your turn to repay the favour." Damon said. "Well I dunno. I mean it's been so long and- lets change the subject." Elena said. "Your turn."
Before Damon could ask anything Elena heard a big crack of lightning. Elena jumped at the sound. "Damon what time is it?" Elena asked. Damon looked at his watch. "Hmm, almost 8:00pm." Damon said. "Oh wow! I've gotta go!" Elena said and stood up, heading for the door. But Damon wasn't just done with her yet. Damon stood up also.
"Wait, to where? Where are you staying?" Damon asked. "Why do you care?" Elena asked confused. Damon just shrugged. "Well I'm staying at a friends house." Elena said. "Now if you excuse me, I have really gotta run, like now." Elena said in a rush.
Elena ran to the door, but before she could open Damon was in front of it. "Damon! Please move!" Elena whined. "What? I don't get a Good-bye Kiss?" Damon asked and smirked. Elena rolled her eyes. "Damon, come on. Be mature about this. We have both grown up." Elena said. "Not me, I don't get any older."
Elena put her hand on her hip, annoyed. And arched an eyebrow. "What do you want from me Damon?" Elena asked blankly. "Well I haven't seen you in years. It would seem some kind of affection would be proper." Damon said, smirking. "I hate you." Elena said. "And after all these years? I thought we grew up."
Elena rolled her eyes and kissed Damon on the cheek. "Fine. Alright? There." Elena said. "It will do, for now." Damon said seductively. Elena knew what Damon was trying to do. But the thing is, she still hasn't forgot the things he had done in the past. Elena still remembered all the horrible things Damon had done to the people she loved.
Killed Vicky. Tortured Stefan all his life. And Damon was acting like nothing had ever happened...Or was Elena just be over dramatic?
"Now, you may pass Elena." Damon said. Elena rushed pass Damon to the door. "Thanks Damon." Elena said. "For what?" He asked. "Well for answering my questions, I needed to know all along." Elena said. "My pleasure." Damon said with a grin. And with that Elena was out of the door and gone.

Elena ran as fast as she could all the way back to Bonnie's house. Since she didn't go to Damon's in her car, or since he didn't suggest to drive her back to where she was staying...it was the only solution. Elena stopped in front of Bonnie's house to catch her breath, but continued on.
Elena pounded on Bonnie's front door since it was locked. But not surprisingly; an angry face came outside to greet her. "Elena! How could you just leave me like that! I can believe you-" Before Bonnie could finish ranting on, Elena interrupted her. "Okay Bonnie. I know this looks bad and I am completely sorry, but I have bigger news." Elena said. "Wow. Really? You leave Mystic Falls, come back and act like a crazy person!" Bonnie shouted. "No Bonnie trust me! YOU NEED to know this!" Elena shouted back.
"What? What ELENA, could possibly be SO important!-"
"Damon's back." Elena said almost to fast.
Bonnie gasped. There was the longest silence in the whole word going on, right now in Bonnie's house. No one said a word.
"How long have you known?" Was all Bonnie could ask. "Just about an hour ago." Elena said softly. "How could this happen- I mean I thought...is Stefan with him?" Bonnie asked. She was awfully confused. Elena looked to the floor. "Umm no." Elena almost whispered. Bonnie's head shot up in 'awe'.
"I'm sorry Elena. I knew you really wanted to see him." Bonnie said and gently put her hand on Elena's back. "But maybe it's for the best." Bonnie added and without realization, ruined the moment. Elena wasn't stupid. She got that Bonnie hated Stefan. Didn't even like the Salvatore's or any vampire species. But Elena didn't care. Stefan was her lover. The one she wanted. Even if she couldn't have him.
"Well what are we going to do?" Bonnie asked. Elena shrugged. But then her eyes got tense. She knew Damon wasn't here because he was 'homesick'. And damn it if she was wrong, but she knew Damon was in Mystic Falls for a much much bigger reason, and she was going to be the one to find out.
"We will wait and see how Damon acts. We will wait and let him play his little games. But when he least expects it; were going to find out why he's here. And then were going to get him the hell out out of this town. Fast.
