I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy
'Cause you're the only one up in my heart
I was born to make you happy
Always and forever, you and me
That's the way our life should be
20 weeks and 2 days pregnant
Sunday, January 15th
It has been one week and a day since me and Damon have been dating. I don't want to sound cliché or anything but it has been perfect. I am now officially halfway through my pregnancy and believe it or not, in the last week I have grown. Damon and I have been talking about more and more names but nothing sticks. We want it to fit her so we are being a little picky. Everyone won't stop buying us things for the baby so my room and Damon's is overrun with baby items, which we have been spending most of our spare time organizing.
This is my most critical time in my pregnancy. The baby changes everyday, grows and learns. Since she has learned to kick she won't stop. My doctor is actually concerned over her cracking my ribs, that's how much she does it. I have been rubbing my belly more to calm her. Damon and I also have been talking to her more and more since she can hear us.
"Elena, Damon is here!" My dad calls from downstairs.
I look over at the clock. Ten o'clock. Okay.
I love him, I do, but a girl needs rest. And sleep.
Knowing he will just come up here, I wait for the familiar door opening to signal his arrival. I was right, about two minutes later I hear the floor creak outside my bedroom and then the door squeaking open.
"You are a morning person and that sucks." I grumble into my pillow.
I hear him chuckle and then start shedding his clothes. The first time he did this I was alarmed and told him to get away but now I crave it. It's not like he is naked. Just no shirt. We talked a little about going further but are in no rush since you know, pregnant and all. Also we are only in our first week of our relationship I don't want it to be too fast. Though it doesn't really make a difference since I'm already pregnant.
He slips under the covers of my bed and brings me closer. I sigh in content. I am never more relaxed or comfortable than when I am in his arms. How did I live so long without this? What is wrong with me. He wraps his arms tightly around me and nuzzles his nose into my shoulder.
I hum and wrap tighter around him as well. "How do you always get past my dad?"
"He always says something about nothing can happen since you are already pregnant." He shrugs.
I laugh into his chest. "I wonder what will happen after I give birth." I ponder. "Will we even be allowed to be in the same room?"
"Probably not." He says honestly.
"Maybe we can throw him our daughter and hope her cuteness will distract him?" I hope.
"You can wish all you want, but no." He chuckles.
"Damn." I grumble.
He pulls back a little so he is able to lift up my shirt and rub my belly. I smile. I love it when he gets like this. He gets so absorbed in her movements; it's the cutest thing to watch. Also whenever he is around or is rubbing my belly she tends to kick more. I totally feel like a third wheel around them.
He rubs it for awhile before leaning down and pressing a gentle kiss in the center. I feel my tears well up, like always, as I witness these gentle moments.
"I wish I could kiss my own belly." I pout staring up at him.
He kisses my stomach again before smirking at me. "There, that one was for you."
I shake my head and laugh.
We are quiet for awhile silenced by our thoughts. I smile when I think back to us telling Damon's parents. I was so nervous because well, they are rich and his parents. Damon is everything to me I didn't want them to hate me. I know that is absurd for me to think but I tend to over think lately.
"Damon, please." I pull back from his grasp. "Can I wait in the car then you text me when we are in the clear?" I ask with hope but know deep down there is no way he will allow that.
He looks at me like I am crazy. "Hell no. Get your ass in there Gilbert." He laughs.
Ha, ha Salvatore.
I grumble incoherent words but Damon just smirks like the cocky bastard that he is. Last night changed us forever. I was hoping when I woke up he wouldn't regret it or it would be awkward between us and it wasn't. I woke up this morning he came in my room laid down next to me and we kissed…..For two hours. Still making up for lost time. But then he dropped the bomb on me, he wanted to tell his family. He lives with them and he's stressed he just can't keep it a secret. I rolled my eyes.
My dad acts like we've been dating for weeks. When we came downstairs hand in hand my dad just smiled and went on with his normal business. I thanked him for that.
Damon walks in his house with ease almost like he is jumping with joy. Meanwhile I am stiff and tense, and honestly want to fast forward the next few hours.
"Damon hey I-….." But Helen stops seeing me. "Elena, dear!" She instantly brightens.
Damon rolls his eyes. "Good to know who you love more."
Me and Helen laugh while we share a hug.
When we break apart she leans down. "How is my little bambina." She says in a high voice.
"Mom, stop being weird." Damon says with a grimace.
I scoff. "Please Damon, who sings to her?"
Helens eyes melt at that information.
"Thanks Elena." He says sarcastically.
I smile sweetly and about to reach up and kiss him but stop knowing Helen doesn't know. Damon catches that though and pulls me in. Our lips meet and Damon being Damon tries to deepen it but me being me knows Helen is right in front of us, so I cut it short. I look up and Damon pouts.
I cough and look at Helen hoping on some miracle she didn't see but right now, I doubt that. She is practically glowing as her mouth hangs open. Great. Damn Damon, for having zero self control.
"Mom don't go there." Damon warns.
All of the sudden she is squealing and running to Damon before she wraps him up in a tight hug while laughing.
"I am so proud of you Damon" She sniffles.
I am smiling at the moment before Helen booms over to me. I jump a little not prepared but she wraps her arms around me and doesn't let go.
"Thank you dear." She whispers. "You have no idea what you have done to this family. For the good. I love you for that. Thank you."
I nod feeling tears surface.
Damon looks between us, not knowing what was said. But he doesn't need to. Helen's words might be meaningless to some but I read through them. It meant a lot.
Awhile later Giuseppe and Stefan came down from bed and we all told them. Just straightforward, they didn't even bat a eyelash actually Stefan's reaction was "Okay, can I go to Caroline's now?" and Giuseppe's was "That good. I am happy for you two. Now I need coffee." Then got up and left. Almost like it was expected.
Did they see stuff between us, me and Damon might not have seen? I shake my head of the thought, nah. No way.
"I will make some lunch." Helen says still with a glow in her. Damn she must be really happy about this. "You two go off and do….whatever it is you do." She waves off before heading into the kitchen.
"Wanna talk?"Damon almost says miserably.
"Don't be nervous" I half laugh.
He smiles sheepishly but nods. We both head up to his room. My libido spikes thinking of all the things we could and are going to do on his bed. I bite my lip and cross the room. We both sit on the bed before he starts speaking.
"I know we have a lot to talk about but I just want to let you know I do love you and-"
"Damon" I laugh as I touch his knee. "It's fine. I love you. Don't freak out. I just wanted to make sure…." I take a gulp. "That you don't flake or that I am not….What you are looking for." I inhale.
I look down not wanting to meet his stare. Or his reaction. Yes I believe he loves me. I do. But he has been with so many other woman and way more experienced than me. What if he gets bored of me? Or I am not as good? Or not what he expected? I know, bad thoughts but I can't help it.
I feel his hands under my chin to make me look at him. I try to pull away at first but he doesn't make it easy. Finally I look up at him.
"Elena Marie Gilbert." He scowls. "If you think I am flaking now you have another thing coming. It would take a lot for me to leave you." He winks. "And not what I'm looking for? Do you remember a certain boy staring at you across the park at recess? I've always wanted you. You were always the girl I dreamed of having but never tried with because I never deserved you."
I gape at him. "What. You were the creepy boy in elementary?" I blurt out.
He drops his hands and laughs. "Yeah that was me."
I shake my head and laugh. "Sorry, that is just the first thing that came to mind."
"Don't blame you."
I smile before looking intently into his blue orbs. "Damon. You do deserve me. Probably more than I deserve you. Think more of yourself." I whisper. "You are an amazing person, I love you and your daughter will love you as well. You do deserve love Damon. I love you so…get over it." I laugh.
"Come here." He growls and pulls me to his chest. We roll around on the bed while I am squealing. He just has to tickle me….
It's war Salvatore.
We wrestle but I can tell he makes sure not to squish the baby, being the thoughtful man that he is. We are rolling around before he pushes me to my back and hovers over me. I know not to move. I don't want to anyway. I feel my breathing hitch while staring into his eyes.
He leans down and sucks on my neck. I moan in response. My libido is through the roof so this is basically heaven to me. I feel his hot breaths under my ear and his ragged breathing. I reach up and thread my fingers through his hair.
"Elena." He whispers silkily in my ear. "I love you too."
He has opened up so much this last week that I don't need a speech. He loves me. I am happy. Whenever I hear it I can't imagine ever getting tired of it. I'll never lose the feeling it gives me. I know I never will.
I am now nuzzled into his neck as he rubs soothing patterns along my back. Our legs intertwined beneath the sheets. I let out a deep sigh, I feel so happy and relaxed. I could stay here for days if I didn't have to pee all the time. Damon starts kissing my neck, face, arms and shoulders until he reaches my lips. I can't help but moan in response and press myself impossibly closer to his warm body.
He pulls back looking me over as if appreciating every inch of me before attacking my lips. I claw at his neck trying to bring him as close as I could get while we kiss. He hovers over me and instinctively I wrap my legs around him. He smiles in response and continues kissing me. Our tongues are still intertwined as are we, and it's minutes later before I gasp and push him back.
He looks around, confused. His cheeks bright red from our little session.
"Sorry." My breathing still loud.
"What happened?" He asks gaining control of his surroundings.
"She kicked. Hard. It just surprised me sorry." I laugh and shake my head.
"She is totally trying to cockblock us right now." He half laughs half grumbles.
"She just knows her mommy is very happy." I gleam impishly before I pull him back to me.
"Mhmm." He moans into my mouth as we begin where we left off.
20 weeks and 3 days pregnant
Monday January 16th
Ugh.
Monday's suck.
I work my way through the crowd to get to Damon.
I really need Damon right now.
I've learned that when I am worked up or stressed I go to him and he instantly calms me. It's the weirdest and most amazing thing.
Caroline, Stefan, Damon and I are all hanging out at the Salvatore's house tonight to catch up. Plus Helen wanted a family dinner with all of us. I can tell she is very family-oriented and craves this, maybe all the years out on the road with Giuseppe got to her and she misses this. I think after my pregnancy came out Helen and Giuseppe realized how much they were missing and didn't know, hence them coming back. At first I could tell Damon hated them back. It was a change he wasn't used to and he had a lot of resentment about them leaving a lot of his childhood. I can tell now though, he is very happy with them being back. Though he would never admit to that but I know he loves them being here.
I keep walking through the parking lot until I see his Camaro. God I love his car.
I giggle and jump in.
"Hey babe." He tries to kiss me but I am too busy putting my bag in the back so I miss him. "Elena." He whines.
I roll my eyes, though, I want it just as much as him. He smiles when I am still and looking at him with the same fire in my eyes. He then leans in and kisses me. Sweetly. We have major separation anxiety. I don't know if that's because this relationship is new or what. Damon says it's because he loves me so much but I think I am going crazy. Even before we were dating we had this problem so now that we are finally together it just feels amplified.
We are still lightly kissing when there is an impatient honking behind us.
Ugh.
They need to get laid.
….So do I.
Damn libido.
Damon groans then pulls away before pulling out into the road. He hates it when he stops kissing before he is finished. It leaves him in a grumpy mood, to help I put my hand on his thigh. And I notice how he visibly relaxes.
Mhm.
Maybe I have the same reaction on him as he does on me.
I rub my belly on our way to his house. She is kicking off a storm. But then again, when isn't she. I already have a feeling she is going to be energetic and full of life when she gets here.
We arrive at the Salvatore house and Damon and I walk hand in hand. Anxious to spend time together. We don't care how or what we are doing. This last week our parents have been so supportive of our relationship, giving us our space. I appreciate it because me and Damon need it. We are the only people who understand how we feel going through this situation.
"We're home, Mom." Damon says and quickly tries to pull me upstairs before she can distract us. He probably wants to make out. But hey who am I to complain? We are just hitting the stairs when her voice calls out to us.
"Damon come here!" Helen calls from the kitchen.
"Damn it." He curses.
I try not to smile. He is so hot when he is sexually frustrated. He pulls me down the hallway grumbling incoherently. When we near the kitchen I can smell the delicious smell of Helen's cooking. My mouth waters from the tasty aroma. Thank god for the Salvatore cooking genes.
"Yeah Mom?" Damon sighs as we enter the kitchen still hand in hand.
"Is Caroline and Stefan with you?" She looks up at us curiously as she stirs something.
"No, haven't seen them since lunch" Damon shrugs and tries to leave again.
"Hi Elena dear." Helen says sweetly, Damon rolls his eyes. "You hungry?"
I shake my head. "I ate a big lunch." I smile at her. "But thanks."
She nods. "Okay, and Damon text your brother to come home. I know he probably went to Caroline's doing god knows what but he needs to come home. This is a family dinner." She says firmly.
Damon nods. "Okay."
I try not to laugh because she is spot on. I am almost one hundred percent sure Stefan and Caroline are having sex right now. They can barely keep their hands off each other so when they are home alone or out of school they jump each other at every chance they can get. I use to scold them for it but now I understand.
Damon tugs at me to leave, Helen shakes her head and laughs. "You can go now, Damon."
"What, no lecture on no sex?" Damon exasperates.
I giggle because my dad and Jeremy are notorious for doing that which is why he probably expected it.
Helen turns to with an amused expression. "Damon Angelo Salvatore, you and I both know I gave up on that awhile ago. I am just glad it's with your girlfriend now instead of some random herpes girl." She cringes.
Some girls would find that a lot of pressure or weird but I laugh and look up at Damon with so much love in my eyes. Yeah we will get there someday but it will happen naturally. He looks down at me with the same love in his eyes. How is it possible to be so in love with someone? I never dreamed of it to be like this with so much passion, fire, lust, love. It's incredible.
"Ha, ha. Mom you're funny." He says in sarcasm. "But I know you only said that to keep Elena around. I know you are trying to steal her from me."
"Nonsense." Helen waves off. "She is just the daughter I never had."
"Well, I'm not sharing." He shouts as he pulls me out of the kitchen.
"Damon." I squeal.
He pulls me through the house until we reach his bedroom. The once tidy room now has baby stuff filling all the corners. I smile at the sight. I notice I am in a trance when Damon is sitting on the bed gesturing for me to come over.
I blush and make my way over.
I sit down next to him and let out a shaky breath. He does this to me, makes my body have all these reactions. It's not fair.
He smirks. "Let's pick up where we left off."
I gasp. "But Damon." I say in mock seriousness. "You should listen to your mom."
He growls before pining me on my back and hovering over. I giggle trying to get away but, what's the point? I love it.
He looks me over in appreciation like he always does before he crashes his lips against mine. We both moan from the contact, as if we haven't done this for days when in reality it hasn't even been an hour.
We continue kissing loosing track of time, I could do this for hours. We devour each other loosing ourselves. Damon's hands start traveling up to my chest before he massages my breasts. I groan and thrust my hips up. He curses before he grinds his not so subtle arousal into me.
I gasp at the feeling. Being pregnant makes me extra sensitive to things. He smirks before kissing me forcefully again which I grasp onto him tight, never wanting him to go.
[…]
Me and Damon are heavily breathing from our very long make out session. I am tucked into his chest while he has his arm wrapped around me. I love him so much.
I nestle in deeper and moan. "That was amazing."
He chuckles. "That it was."
"Didn't you have to text Stefan?" I suddenly realize.
"Shit." He curses.
He reluctantly lets me go while sending the text. I touch my lips and they are very swollen. I smile.
"Okay all sent." He sighs while getting comfortable on the bed again. "You hungry?"
I nod. "Very. But dinner is soon so I will wait."
He looks hesitantly at me. "You sure?"
I laugh. "Yes, Damon. I had a huge lunch. Thanks to you." I look pointedly at him. At lunch he came with a huge and I mean huge bowl of pasta that could feed eight but shared it only between us. Mainly me. I was so full after, I thought I was going to die.
He laughs. "Got to keep my girls fed." He smiles goofily at me.
I blush.
I love it when he calls us his girls.
Because we are.
An hour later after laying around and of course more kissing we hear talking downstairs, probably meaning Stefan and Caroline are finally done having sex and decided to join us. I feel my stomach rumble from the though of Helen's amazing food. I swear she is the best cook ever. She should open a restaurant.
"Damon, Elena! Dinner!" Helen calls from downstairs.
Damon helps me up before we make our way downstairs hand in hand. I can smell the food the closer we get to the kitchen. I can also hear Caroline's perky voice down the hall.
We enter the dining room and everyone is already seated. Me and Damon sit across from Stefan and Caroline while Giuseppe and Helen are at the heads of the table. My mouth waters looking at the turkey, casserole, pasta and salad.
"Damon, I saw your room earlier today and you really have to organize those baby things." Helen scolds.
Damon sighs. "I know mom. We are working on it. There is just so much, plus with school we don't have a lot of free time."
"Well, what about when you were just up there?" Helen asks.
Damon chokes a little on his water. Stefan starts laughing while Caroline is looking at me with a smirk on her face.
"Oh god, I don't want to know." Helen shakes her head back and forth.
Damon glares at the still laughing Stefan. "Trust me we did far less than Saint Steffie over there." Which earns a murderous glare from Stefan and Caroline.
I stifle a laugh.
God this whole thing, is just weird.
"You boys just can't keep it in your pants can you." Helen exasperates.
Me and Caroline turn the other way and laugh.
"They are Salvatore's." Giuseppe grins proudly.
Helen rolls her eyes. "Let's move on." She coughs. "So Elena and Caroline, you two are good friends? When did you two meet?" She asks conversationally.
Caroline looks at me and I nod.
She is better at telling it than me.
"We met first in pre school where Elena was totally into her own thing, but I was like 'ohmygod' her dress is so cute. So I went over to introduce myself. She didn't like me at first, I could tell. But I pushed and soon we were best friends." Caroline explains. "Then we had kindergarten together and got closer then met Bonnie. Been inseparable ever since." Caroline finishes her story with a smile.
Helen coos. "That is so sweet. Also amazing how you two stayed in touch."
"Caroline wouldn't have it any other way." I chuckle.
Caroline brightens. "It's true."
"Damon didn't you say you knew Elena in elementary?" Helen asks him curiously.
Damon shifts uncomfortably. "Yeah."
"He was the creepy boy always staring at me" I smirk staring at Damon and watching his blush grow. "I didn't know until yesterday that it was him but I always saw a boy looking at me across the field at recess." I giggle.
"Damon was always a strange boy." Giuseppe joins in.
"Thanks you guys." Damon says with mock sarcasm.
"I forgot to tell you guys!" Helen blurts out. "I booked you guys for birthing classes next week. Hope you two don't mind? You don't have to go, just thought you wanted some classes." She smiles.
"I would love too!" I perk up. "Anything to make…..It less painful I am in!" I agree.
Damon looks at me and nods eagerly. "Anything to make her not yell and scream at me. I'm in as well."
I fight a smile and smack him playfully which earns a grin from him.
The rest of the dinner goes by smoothly. Caroline and Stefan took over the rest of the conversations, thank god. I don't need anymore of Damon's sex talks in front of his family. I am glad though Helen signed me up for birthing classes. I was going to do it soon. I want to learn what is going to happen to me in a few short months and how to deal with the pain I am not looking forward to.
The entire dinner Damon held my hand under the table. I find it so cute he is a hopeless romantic. You wouldn't think so when you first meet him but he totally is, though he would never admit to it.
After dinner Stefan and Caroline were the first to go up to a room while Damon and I snuggled up on the couch near the fire.
"I like it when our life is like this." I whisper into his shoulder.
"What?" He asks huskily.
"Easy. Happy. No drama." I smile more and nuzzle my face.
He kisses my head repeatedly. "Wanna go somewhere?"
I sit up and look at him with a raised eyebrow. "Where?"
Where the hell could this man want to go at 8pm?
"Just follow my lead." He smirks and gets up.
"You are trouble Salvatore."
"You love it." He smiles.
I roll my eyes and get up, following him. As we are putting our shoes and jackets on Helen comes out of the kitchen from washing dishes and scowls at us.
"Where are you two going?"
"Out." Damon replies shortly.
"Damon tell me." She puts her hands on her hips.
He groans. "I can't tell you because I am surprising Elena." He rolls his eyes.
I laugh at how hard he is trying to hide this from me. Man has got pride.
"Then come whisper it in my ear." She says firmly.
Damn. Getting to know Helen over the past few weeks has been amazing she is kind and sweet and loves her boys to the end of this earth, but it is interesting seeing her parent. Damon is about to be a dad but she still cares and looks after him like he is little, I like that. And you can tell Damon respects his mom and would do anything for her.
He sighs but complies to her wishes and whispers wherever we are going into her ear.
She looks up at him and beams. "Awe boy!" She grins happily. "Have fun you two!" She waves at us before returning to the kitchen.
I look at him skeptically as he opens the door.
"Come on, Elena." He sings.
I shake my head and go with it.
I trust him.
He grins, happy he got his way.
Men.
On the ride over I look around to see where we are headed but Damon is good at distracting me. Plus little munchkin hasn't stopped moving since I got in the car. It almost feels like she wants to be apart of this family moment.
You will soon.
I look out the window after awhile in confusion. We are headed to the edge of mystic falls. I have a cabin up here, this is the area where a lot of people go camping. If Damon wasn't my boyfriend I would be worried he was trying to murder me and bury my body out here.
After a few minutes the car stops and I look around.
Oh.
The falls.
Also known as the most romantic spot in Mystic Falls.
He looks over at me knowing I realize where we are and smiles.
He opens his car door. "Walk around?" He turns to ask me.
I nod mindlessly, not knowing what to say.
We get out and walk around the park and falls. Not saying a word yet. It is not needed. I am glad though I brought my jacket with me because it is still winter and freezing cold, but doesn't change how romantic this is. Not one bit.
"This place holds a lot of memories." He says out of nowhere. "My dad and my mom used to come here, back when they were in high school; this is where they fell in love. My dad proposed to my mom right over there." He points to a gazebo smiling. "We use to camp around the corner or just have lunch here." He reminisces. "It is one of my favorite spots in Mystic Falls, and I wanted to share new memories here with you and one day our daughter."
I feel fresh tears surface my eyes. He wants his and his family's most precious spot to become ours.
I sniffle and wipe my eyes before looking into his eyes. "I would love to create new memories here with you Damon."
He smiles like he didn't expect that.
It makes me sad that he still doesn't expect I will love him back.
He holds out his hand and I grab it. We walk down to the river a short distance away looking and listening to the water.
"My mom told me when I was little to only bring the girl I plan on loving forever." He tells me simply before looking into my eyes. "I thought it would never happen seeing….I am a complete dick." He laughs. "And I've never loved anyone…till you obviously." He smirks looking at me.
I bite my lip looking up at him, fighting tears. He is really in this. He wants to love me forever.
Damn it. I can't fight the tears much longer and they come pouring out. He pulls me close holding on tight, making sure to never let me go. No man has ever loved me or touched my heart like the one standing in front of me. In a few short months he has become everything to me. I love him with every fiber of my being, so much that I can't put my feelings into words. So I don't.
I pull back just enough, before I'm kissing him with as much love as I can muster into a deep sensual kiss. I know he can feel all the love from it because he pulls me tighter before breaking the kiss to give me a small one on my forehead.
"By the way, you aren't a dick." I smile into his chest. "Well sometimes, but you are my dick." I bite my lip to control my laugh.
I feel his chest shake with laughter. "Why did that sound so dirty."
"Maybe it was." I laugh still leaning my head against his chest. "I love you." I say to him after a few moments. "A lot, just wanted to let you know."
He laughs. "I love you a lot too Elena. Super duper a lot."
I push him back laughing. "Did you just ruin a cute moment by using the words 'Super Duper'?" I cross my arms.
"Maybe I did." He smirks but I can still see the overwhelming amount of love in his eyes so I forgive him. But he doesn't have to know that.
"You are sleeping in the doghouse Salvatore." I smirk back, turning around nearing closer to the river.
"That didn't take long." He chuckles behind me.
I am shaking my head still walking along the river, I hear him not far behind me. I am walking when I see mud and I manage to jump over it and avoid it before I slipped. Whew.
I am about to turn around to warn Damon when I hear a yell.
I look to see him completely in the freezing cold river with his mouth hung open in shock.
Oh my god.
I laugh my ass off while pulling out my phone and snapping a quick picture. This is too good of a moment to pass by.
"I am-" He shivers. "-going to kill you when I get out."
I smile but feel bad because it is pretty cold. I go over to him to help him up but quickly pull back before he can grab me.
"Wait." I scowl at him.
"What? Seriously? Kinda freezing here, help me up." He groans.
"How do I know you won't pull me in?"
"Trust me, I totally fucking would right now." He says seriously. "But you are pregnant so I won't, but so help me god Elena, get me out of here."
"Okay, okay."
I lean down and give him my hand and quickly help him up. He easily gets back up on land and lets out a deep breath. I do feel bad though because he must be freezing.
"Do you have an extra change of clothes in the car?" I hope.
He shakes his head, still shivering.
"Blanket?" I ask.
He nods.
"Okay" I half laugh. "Let's get to the car."
I wrap my arm around his waist as we make it back up toward his car, mainly to keep him warm.
We reach the top and I can see his car now. "Sorry this happened." I say genuinely. "I was about to warn you."
He laughs. "A little late babe." But he kisses he on the cheek.
We reach his car and we immediately go to his trunk where a thick quilt for emergencies is.
"Damon you are going to have to take your clothes off." I advise.
He smirks at me and is about to open his mouth before I smack him on the arm.
"No, not like that." I mock. "You need to get the cold and wet clothes off if you ever want to warm up."
He looks around for people but obviously there isn't any. Not at this time of night or season. He starts taking off his shirt but I turn around and lean against the side of the car to give him privacy.
"Oh, come on." He laughs. "Its not like it's something you haven't seen."
"I am just trying to be being considerate." I explain.
"Well don't. Because it is insulting that I am here naked and you aren't even enjoying the show."
I scoff.
I choose the greatest men don't I?
Yep.
Appeasing him and to get a glimpse I turn around just in time to see him lowering his boxers. Great timing.
I look down and immediately blush before I look to the side quickly.
He shakes his head. "For someone who is pregnant you sure are a prude. I am going to change that."
"Good luck."
I look at him again and he finally has a the big quilt wrapped around him. His cheeks are flushed from the cold, his hair is still soaking but damn he still looks amazing. I smile and reach up to kiss him. We kiss for a few moments before a cold gust hits us.
"I will drive, you need to get in the car Damon before you get hypothermia or something."
He surprisingly hands me the keys he fishes out of his wet pockets and gets in the passenger. I am in shock for a few moments he is letting me drive his second baby before I get in the drivers side. I turn on the car and crank up the heat.
"Make sure you use the clutch well and don't press on the gas too much, its sensitive." He tells me firmly.
"Yes dad." I say in mock sarcasm.
"Trust me babe, I am not your dad." He laughs.
I shake my head.
I am about to pull out of the parking spot when he groans next to me. "God it won't go down."
I frown in confusion before he points to his very hard dick. Oh.
I cough. "Maybe just wait for the car to heat up?" I suggest.
He scoffs. "There is only one way to relieve a Salvatore boner."
I smile and shake my head. "You Salvatore men are too damn cocky for your own good." I say as I finally pull out and start heading to his house.
We finally arrive and Damon and finally somewhat warm but his other problem is still very up. I hope we can sneak past Helen and make it up to his room before she jumps to conclusions I mean, us coming back from the most romantic place in Mystic Falls with Damon naked, while wrapped in a blanket is kind of sketchy.
I open the door quietly and look around, all the lights are still on, but no one in sight. I turn around to Damon and nod. We make our way inside and I close the door as quietly as I can muster before we tip toe down the hallway and upstairs. We are about to open Damon's bedroom door when her voice makes us jump.
"What is going on?" She asks half amused.
We turn to look at her like a deer in headlights.
"Mom." Damon groans. "Don't start."
She crosses her arms and raises her eyebrow.
"We were walking along the river when there was some mud that Damon slipped on and next thing you know he's soaked through, he had to take his clothes off since he was so cold and wrapped him up in the only thing in his car." I explain.
She nods. "I figured it was something like that, don't worry. Damon get changed and take Elena home, it is a school night she needs to sleep. Night hun." She waves at me before entering her room again.
"Whew." I whisper.
When we get in his room he quickly chooses some sweat pants and a simple white t-shirt before we are on our way back to the car.
"Am I driving this time?" I ask with hope. I don't know why I like driving his car.
"Nope."
Damn, it was worth a shot.
We get in and head on over. My dad should be home now or soon but he will not be happy I am out this late on a school night. Especially with my pregnancy I need a few more hours than normal so this will definitely mess with me tomorrow.
We pull up in front of my house and I sigh. As much as I want to sleep I hate leaving him. It should be illegal to leave Damon.
I groan and pout.
"I know." He half smiles.
"I had fun tonight Damon….And thanks for saying those things to me and opening up….I know it takes a lot for you." I stare at him deeply. "But I wanted to let you know that I hope to be forever with you as well and that one day I hope we can take our daughter there and tell her the story of how her dad fell in and her mom had to rescue him." I giggle.
"You wouldn't dare." His eyes gleam mischievously.
I laugh before leaning forward and kissing him lightly. He needs to know I love him. It might take time but he needs that reassurance and tender love. Yeah the lust is nice but sometimes he just needs to know I am here, not for his amazing body but for his heart, as corny as that sounds.
"I love you." He whispers against my lips.
"I super duper love you too!" I laugh before jumping out of the car and running to my door before he can catch me.
"You will pay for that Gilbert!"
"Karma is a bitch isn't it?!" I yell before opening my door and closing it.
I am walking up the stairs when my phone buzzes. I roll my eyes and open the text.
Revenge is also a bitch ;)

Long ish wait? I dont know what is considered a long wait or not haha but here is a update! Love me?
