Undisclosed Desires

He had kissed her but she kissed him back, he had surprised her with the kiss but she didn't want it to stop and then there was Damon sure he didn't kiss her the way Stefan did but the way he let his hand linger on her hip as kissed her on the cheek, she liked it having him touch her, it was a seductive move something she should have expected from him.

But Stefan she didn't expect him to kiss her like that ever, she didn't know that how he felt, she didn't even know how she felt herself but all she knew is that both of the Salvatore's where getting under her skin and she had no idea what she was supposed to do.

She had spent the whole weekend distracting herself from thinking about either of them and it was easy to do with the company of Peyton and Haley they spent the whole weekend in the house catching up and ordering in but soon enough it was Sunday night and they had to return to their lives in Tree Hill and she was so tempted to just go with them but she couldn't.

She stood outside her house and waved at the taxi as it faded away into the distance taking them away from Mystic Falls.

Life was so much easier in Tree Hill, how she missed the simpleness of her life there.

Now it was Monday, not only did she have to go to school but she also had to work with Stefan on Romeo & Juliet.

'Coffee, brother'.

Stefan looked at Damon as he stood in his doorway.

'I'm sure you've spiked it with vervain, so I'll pass'.

Damon chuckled darkly.

'No that's more your thing beside there is no more vervain not since our dear uncle Zach tragically passed away, anyway I bet your excited to go to school see Brooke or maybe it's Elena, do you think they exchanged notes on your kissing skills'.

Stefan looked at him.

'Yes I know all about it, I don't know how you managed to walk away from her and there was me thinking that you wouldn't play how wrong I was'.

She had considered skipping school, they would be no parents for the school to contact in her absence but she couldn't Brooke Davis wasn't going to hide from this.

She needed to face the angel first and then she would have to go and dance with the devil.

She was surprised to find that his car was no where to be seen when she arrived at school, it wasn't like Stefan to be late but then maybe he wasn't late and was avoiding her.

Maybe he was also confused by what had happened between them but she knew that couldn't be true he was the one that kissed her first, there was something there for him.

She went through the motions of her first few lessons alone, no friends to distract her from her silence and no him.

Not until till after break where she would not only have to face him Elena as they all had gym at the same time.

She walked into the locker room and found that she was one of the first people there maybe she would be able to get changed and out on the field anyone else but that wasn't to be as Elena walked in with Bonnie.

There wasn't much time for talk as the teacher command that they all be out on on the track in five minutes.

It felt good to be running, the track blurred beneath his feet, the steady beat of the other students footfalls on the tracks filled his ears and then he saw her she was on the other side of the track.

A run always helped clear her head, the cool air rushing past her face helped her focus on the track ahead and kept her mind clear.

There eyes met across the track and for that moment all she saw was him watching her, the rest of the world seemed not to exist as they just held each others gaze and then she saw him, he wasn't hard to miss leaning against his car when he realised he had her attention he lowered his sunglasses and held her gaze, stealing her attention from Stefan.

She continued for the rest of the day avoiding him but then came the one lesson where she couldn't avoid him.

When she walked into class she was surprised that he wasn't already there but as the rest of the class filtered into the room.

She sat in her usual seat by the window while everyone else sat in their pairs.

It wasn't until five minutes into the lesson that he walked in and made his excuses to the teacher before coming to towards her desk pulling up the only empty chair to the side of the her desk eliminating any space between them.

'It's not like you to be late'.

She commented and he nodded while paying attention to what the teacher said before the class started to discuss their assignment but Romeo & Juliet wasn't on either of their minds.

They both sat in silence looking through the book, such a tragic story of young love, she had never really paid attention to Shakespeare before as she read the pages of the story, she realised she was jealous of Juliet not having to deal with the struggle that she was going through.

He watched her as she touched her lip with her pen, she turned her head and stared at him her dark lashes emphasizing the beauty of her eyes.

Their hands rested on the desk, the smallest gap between their finger, he could hear the smallest shudder in her breath.

He turned back to look at her, she remained seated on her bed, eyes closed as she touched her lips delicately tracing them with her finger.

She hadn't really thought about being with anyone else, she loved Lucas but the reason they didn't work was because of the distance and now distance wasn't the issue.

The issue was that she never thought of Stefan than anything over than a friend but when he kissed her, something changed but then there was Damon.

'Brooke'.

She heard him say her name so softly, cautiously like he didn't know how she would react but she gave him a soft smile.

'I'm not used to you being so quiet'.

'I know, I just don't know what to say not since you kissed me'.

He couldn't tell if she regretted, he wasn't used to her being nervous around him, maybe he had crossed the line but when she kissed him after he pulled away.

That was on her terms she had been the one to bring him back chase the temptation of him, moving his lips from her lips to that sweet junction on her neck and sinking his fangs into delicate skin.

'We should talk about that'.

He whispered as the teacher walked past observing the class at work.

'I know but not here'.

He nodded in understanding.

'Tonight, come to my house we can talk'.

She was sitting outside when he walked out of the building, he looked lost in deep thought but she had to speak to him, especially after the looks of confusion, lust and jealousy that where passed between him,Brooke and Damon.

It was clear that something had happened even if she didn't want to know, she had to find out the truth.

'Stefan'.

He turned at the sound of his name and looked at her before walking over to the bench where she sat.

'Elena, how are you?'.

'I'm okay, I know I have no place getting involved in your life but I'm worried'.

'Who are you worried about?'.

'Brooke, Stefan, it's okay I know that you have feelings for her'.

She heard him sigh deeply as he looked away from her.

'I wanted to talk to you but you where keeping your distance'.

'I know, I think I've know for a while I mean I've seen the way you look and act around her comfortable so human, you where never like that around me'.

'Elena that doesn't mean'.

She knew what he was going to say and she nodded.

'I know, so does she know how you feel?'.

'I don't know but I'm going to tell her'.

'Okay but Stefan do you think it was wise letting Damon, get so close to her I saw the way she looked at him today and the way she looked at you, her heart's a mess as it is and neither of you are making this easy for her'.

'I'm not trying make this harder for I want to be with her and Damon knows this he's bored and he's using it as another way to get to me, more punishment for Katherine getting locked in the tomb and while he can't get her out and it's working'.

'Stefan, the last time Damon was born he turned Vicki, he tried to kill Bonnie and he abused Caroline and he killed your best friend, all he knows is how to cause pain to others, your going to get her hurt Stefan, don't you see that'.

'I know but I can't do anything, he can't win'.

'She isn't a prize, she is human and you and Damon are either going to destroy her or worse let history repeat itself, you told me what happened with Katherine do you really want to lose her'.

She stood staring at the boarding house, she couldn't see either Damon or Stefan's car and wondered if anyone was really home.

She should have said no to coming over to his house to talk but Brooke wasn't the type to run and hide and she wasn't about to start now even though she could hear that voice in her head telling her too.

She sighed as she finally moved her feet towards the house, her heels tapping across the ground as she walked up to the front door to find that the door was wide open.

She turned and looked around and saw a crow sitting in a tree watching her, she had been seeing a lot of crows lately especially at nights when she couldn't sleep there a crow would be perched on her window frame.

She would have found the way it seemed to stare at her creepy but she felt safe in away knowing that out there in the darkness this bird watched over her.

'Stefan,Damon'.

She called out both of there names as she stepped inside expecting one of them to appear but all she got in return was silence.

She wasn't a stranger to this house, she had spent plenty of time in the house and even a few nights.

But now she was alone she didn't feel comfortable being alone in their home.

She stood in the hallway for a moment before pulling out her cell phone to call Stefan as she dialled his number the sound of creaking floorboards made her look up and at that moment the front door slammed shut behind her causing her to spin around and look at the now closed door and then she felt something brush her arm and she almost screamed as she turned round to find Damon standing there in the process of buttoning up his shirt, she had to quickly divert her eyes away from chest.

A smirk played on his lips.

'Sorry didn't mean to scare you'.

He commented as he noticed the shake in her hands and she shrugged.

'Don't worry about it, I didn't realise you where home the front door was wide open and you didn't respond when I called your name'.

'I guess I didn't hear you'.

He replied as headed to the parlour and she followed after him sitting on the couch as he went about pouring himself a drink, he took out two glasses and raised one to her and she shook her head but he poured her a drink away and placed it in front of her before sitting on couch beside her.

'Why did you come to the school today?'.

She asked as he took a sip from his glass.

'You wouldn't believe me if I told you?'.

'Maybe I would try me?'.

'I wanted to make sure Stefan was okay, I mean poor guy is confused, I feel sorry for him, being caught between two women is my idea of heaven on earth but not him, he's tearing himself apart especially after your party and the kiss'.

She was surprised by what she was hearing especially when it was coming from Damon, the last person she would have expected Stefan to confide in.

'He told you about that?'.

'Not really but it wasn't hard to guess, you must have been surprised, you thought you two where just friends and all the time he was fighting his feelings for you'.

'I was surprised that's actually why I'm here we need to talk'.

'It must be hard for you though knowing that he still has feelings for Elena, I mean he loved her those emotions don't just go away and you said it yourself people that belong together always find their way in the end, to be honest I don't get why he's complaining I wouldn't mind being caught between you and Elena but if I had to make that choice I know who I'd pick'.

She looked at him, his blue eyes smouldering into hers almost hypnotising her, he looked down at her wrist and noticed that she wasn't wearing the bracelet Stefan had left her.

'What are you trying to do to me, Damon?'.

She was playing a dangerous game she had come to talk to Stefan about what the kiss meant and she was now sitting with Damon finding herself lured by his blue eyes, she had promised she wouldn't become a victim of there power but it was undeniable.

Her body and her mind craved him.

'I'm not doing anything unless you want me too'.

He replied his voice a low seductive whisper and then he looked up and smiled.

'Hello Stefan'.

She turned quickly to find Stefan standing in the doorway, his eyes blazing and his jaw tight.

'Brooke how long have you been here?'.

He asked his voice rough.

'Oh she hasn't been here that long I was just keeping her company until you arrived'.

Damon replied before she could even speak and then he turned to look at her.

'I'll leave you two too it but Brooke remember what I said'.

He said as he picked up his glass and smirked at her as he walked past, he gave Stefan a smug look before disappearing leaving Brooke to break the silence that remained between her and Stefan.

'Where were you?'.

Was the first question that came to her head as he walked into the room.

'I got caught up, talking to Elena'.

Hearing him say Elena's name didn't usually make her feel anything but this time it did, she felt it slowly building under the surface, who was she to feel this way towards Elena.

He was hers first but she had let him go, set him free into the world but she would always have a place in his heart.

Her mind was whirling with thoughts that only made her think the worse of this situation, caught up could mean anything but to her to meant one thing.

'Okay, what where you two talking about?'.

'Nothing important, what where you and Damon talking about?'.

'Just life'.

She watched as he sat down on the coffee table in front of her and he also noticed that she wasn't wearing the bracelet and he looked into her eyes curiously and she stared back at him.

Damon's words still played in her head.

'He still has feelings for Elena, I mean he loved her those emotions don't just go away'.

'Brooke'.

'Yeah, sorry look Stefan about our kiss, it was a mistake, I'm not over Lucas and you and Elena that's not over yet for me and Lucas the problem was distance but it's not for you and Elena, you have the chance to fix your relationship and give it a second shot, you loved her and you don't fall out of love with someone that quickly'.

'Elena and I are over?'.

'Are you Stefan it wasn't that long ago that you would have moved the earth to be with her, I've seen how she looks at you and she is clearly not over you and who am I to get in the way of that, you deserve a second chance at happiness and it's not with me it's with her and just because your not together now doesn't mean that it won't change in a few days or even a few weeks, you just need to be patient'.

He couldn't believe what she was saying, he knew that Damon had put the thought of him and Elena getting back together in her head but in her eyes he could see that this was her being honest.

She had said it herself she would never do anything to hurt a friend and even if Elena and had already talked about them, he knew that Brooke would never be really comfortable with him if she had to face Elena.

But he wasn't going to let her go so easily.

She had been at home for a few hours after leaving him in silence, he didn't even say anything as she stood up and walked out of the house and she didn't expect him too.

She knew that calling him wasn't the best idea she had but she was done with doing the right thing and she knew that he would come if she called.

He pulled up outside her house, he was pretty surprised that she had called him but when she said those words to him, he dropped what he was doing and headed to the house.

'Here I am'.

He said as she opened the door and stepped aside letting him come in closing the door behind him and then she turned to look at him.

'Thanks for coming'.

He knew why she had called him and what she wanted but he needed to hear her say it again as they stood in the hallway of her house.

'Why did you call me,Brooke?'.

He asked stepping closer to her but she didn't move as his hand came to touch the material of her top.

'You know why I called you?'.

'Tell me'.

She would have answered if his lips didn't claims hers, he felt her pull back and looked into her eyes.

'What about Stefan?'.

'He doesn't have to know'.

He replied his eyes turning darker as he leaned into kiss her again and make her forget about his brother.

This kiss wasn't like her kiss with Stefan this kiss was ravenous, his lips were soft and coaxing, yet firm and demanding as they worked their magic, sending needles of pleasure to every nerve in her body.

Of course Damon got into her head, but that doesn't mean the story is over of course not it's just getting started and how exactly how long do you think Damon is going to keep this from Stefan.
