Chapter Six: "Lets try not to kill anyone tonight - your words"

Walking into the boarding house she looked around. It was everything she imagined it to be. She had seen this place so many times throughout the span of her life, but only from the outdoors. Being on the inside was nice. Looking to Damon she shrugged her shoulders before speaking.

"It's much smaller than I thought it would be." She said simply before grinning. Damon looked at her and shook his head. She was going to be well liked around here. Another Damon in female form, this was going to be Stefan's nightmare, he grinned at that thought.

"Well it is small compared to that giant building you call a home. How do you expect to live in there all alone? You are a very small person compared to it." Damon said placing his hand on the lower of her back to lead her to the den where no doubt Elena and Stefan were sitting. Callie looked at him and narrowed her eyes before softening her face.

"I like room to spread my wings so to speak." She said before they entered the room. Elena and Stefan had stopped mid conversation to turn their heads at the sound of Damon and Callie. Stefan stared at her for a long moment, while Elena just smiled as best as she could.

"This is Callie. Callie this is Elena and my brother Stefan." Callie offered them a polite smile before she nodded her head.

"Pleasure to meet you." She said before grinning. Stefan cleared his throat and smiled.

"Nice to meet you too Callie. I hope my brother hasn't been his self around you." Stefan said before grinning. Elena stifled a laugh before standing up and moving over to her.

"It's nice to meet you. I'm glad Damon made a friend." She said before casting a glance over to Damon. Callie then smiled and looked at Stefan.

"Oh I'm sure he has been his self around me. Luckily I have a bigger ego then he does, so he fails many times." She managed to come back with which made Damon chuckle. Callie then looked to Elena as she tilted her head. She did look remarkably identical to her sister, but she noticed the subtle differences in posture and facial expressions. Clearly she was a human, and innocent at that. Katherine held herself in an arrogant way. Lately, she hasn't seen her sister, which would make the rumors about her being captured true. She had hoped to speak with her sister before all this, but seeing as she was being held captive, she wouldn't be able to make that appearance. Elena looked at Callie, who seemed to be studying her, which made Elena a bit nervous. Damon had said she was a newly turned vampire, what if she wasn't in control of her blood craving and tried to attack her.

As if she had read Elena's thoughts, Callie responded to her.

"I'm sorry for staring; I was just looking at your necklace. My mother had one just like it." She said before she turned her attention to Stefan. It was true that her mother had one just like it, but it was lost years ago after Katherine was born. Elena seemed to ease up after hearing this and then looked to Stefan and nodded.

"While I would love to stay but I have to get home, I want to check up on my brother and I have some homework that needs to get finished." She said before kissing Stefan goodbye.

"It was nice meeting you again Callie." She said softly before she moved down the hall. Callie looked to the two of them before she clasped her hands together.

"Well looks like it is just the three of us. What shall we do?" Damon looked at Stefan and made a look, which had Stefan clearing his throat.

"Well I actually have some things around the house I need to take care of. I'll be leaving you two, my apologies." He said before smiling to Callie.

"I hope to see you around more often." Callie then laughed and nodded her head.

"You too sweet thing." She said before she looked to Damon and smirked. Once Stefan left she moved over to the couch and sat down.

"You're much more attractive than he is." She said crossing her left leg over her right, causing her dress to hike up her thigh. This was her signature move and it made boys crawl. Damon stared at her leg while he sat down next to her and then moved his eyes slowly up her body to her face.

"I keep telling people around here that. For some reason, I appear to be too driven." He said as he found his eyes wandering up and down her body again. She was like her own personal charm that made him go crazy. Something about her was different, and yet the same. When he actually got back to reality, he found himself only a couple of inches from her face. She was staring at him with an amused expression on her face.

"Well…if you really want to kiss me. Just do it, I take you as the take charge kind of guy…If I'm wrong, then you probably should back up." She said and too much her delight slid one of his hands around her waist, where he opened his fingers wide and pulled her closer to him. God, she smells so good, Damon thought. With his free hand, he brushed aside the tiny tendrils of raven-black hair that had escaped the knot at her neck to cascade over her shoulders. And then he placed his lips against her tender luscious lips. She tasted like all things he'd forgotten because he had gone so long without them, like freshly baked bread. Like sugar in one's tea. She smelled like sunshine and the clean air after a quick shower of rain. Her gasp sounded like the winter wind, quiet but cutting.

It was a refreshing feeling, to have a woman in his arms who willingly wanted to be there. Who wasn't enchanted to be there. She wanted him as much as he wanted her and that made this kiss all the more enjoyable. After what seemed an eternity, Callie broke the kiss and grinned.

"Now that is how you should kiss someone." She said as she sat there staring into his eyes. Her eyes got wide as she looked at him.

"What time is it?" She said as she stood up and fixed her dress. She looked at the clock and groaned.

"I'm so sorry but I have to go. I have an interview I need to get to. I'm sorry again Damon, but I really have to go. I'll call you tomorrow okay?" She said before she leaned over and kissed his cheek subtly.

"I had a great time." She said simply before she rushed out of the house, leaving a shocked Damon behind. Blinking he laughed before shaking his head.

"She's surely something alright." Damon smiled before he stood up. She better call him tomorrow, was all he was thinking.
