Elena POV

I ignored the fact that Damon was straight outside the bathroom door, and hopped into the shower letting the warm water sooth and relax me, I let out a small moan and switched off the shower, "I hope that moan wasn't because you were thinking about me Elena?" I could practically see the smirk set on his face and his eyebrows lifted set in a cool arrogance, I stepped out of the shower and grabbed the white towel and wrapped in around myself before turning to look in the mirror, my face looked flushed and healthy giving a tinted glow, my mocha wet hair hung in loose curls framing my face and insinuating my chocolate eyes and for once I felt at peace. I closed my eyes feeling relaxed and felt a hand on my wet shoulder, feeling startled I snapped open my eyes to see Damons smirk and clear blue eyes staring right at me set in the usual sluggish seductive glint. I licked my lips instinctively before realising my mistake he turned me to face him his gaze never leaving mine.

Half of me wanted to scream at him to leave as I was just stood in a towel. Half of me wanted to melt into him and give into my deepest desires, I could feel my cheeks flaming and my legs wobbling under the crushing atmosphere that lied still within the room, Damon's hands lightly brushed my shoulders and his face so serious now that his eyes burned into mine with electricity that coursed and raged through my veins sending more blood to my already glowing cheeks, he slowly moved his face closer to mine our breaths becoming ragged and with no rhythm to our racing hearts, he moved closer to me leaning forward if I thought my heart had been going fast before this just pushed accelerate he moved his body moulded into mine he was pressed straight against me his nose against mine, I could feel the wall behind me and I knew this was it, there was no backing out now, his eyes still held mine and we become one transfixed with the other, his eyes shifted to my rose coloured lips, then back to my eyes, he closed the gap between us, his lips were soft and heavenly against mine, he was sweet. Tender. An angel, I become totally lost in his kiss and moved my tongue along his addicting lips deepening the kiss. His arms snaked around my waist pulling me closer to him, my hands tangled around his neck as we become more passionate and lost with each other, we battled for dominance until he pulled away, I stared at him with a dumbstruck expression and all I could think about was how much more of Damon I wanted and I mean all of him.

Damon POV

I pulled away from Elena; I could feel her heart racing and her body reacting to me just like mine did to her it was agonising, I didn't want her to choose me like this just to throw me away later when Stefan came back, I needed her to want me, be lost in thoughts of me and next time it would be her that did the seducing and chasing, and I knew that with one kiss I had her, she was hooked soon she would love me just like I love her she just needed to see what I really mean to her, I just needed to show her. Just once but I also need to deliver the message I came here to deliver and add one more burden to her list of growing problems.

"Elena We need to leave, pack your stuff, get ready and hurry, I will be back soon" I kissed her quickly on her cheek leaving her gasping wanting more and as I disappeared I laughed.

Elena POV

He left me standing there in a towel, by myself, with no explanation of what we were doing, our situation, why I was needing to pack and the kiss. Oh the kiss even the thought of it screamed at me about my choice of brothers and Stefan, sure we weren't together now and I didn't feel dirty or unfaithful and I knew for one thing I didn't regret it and next time in hell I would do it again.

Looking at myself in the mirror again I smiled, although I was truly annoyed at Damon for breaking the kiss when I really wanted to continue, I felt truly happy, he made me happy for the first time in a while, closing the bathroom door I started to get dressed and when done slipped out from the bathroom and into my room to see Damon sat on my bed with my case packed and a smirk set on his face.

"Okay then off we go" he grabbed both the cases and headed down the stairs me following behind him practically touching him, bumping into Jeremy on the way up Damon's smirk grew wider reminding me of a Cheshire cat and I laughed causing Damon to turn and glare as I knew he heard that thought just as loud as if I had spoke it.

"Erm Elena where you going?" Jeremy asked pulling a confused and concerned expression at me and staring at the suitcases in Damon's hand.

Before I could even comprehend the question and an answer Damon beat me to it giving Jeremy a prize winning smirk he pulled me down the stairs and turned to look at Jeremy.

"Romantic getaway, Me, Elena, Alcohol, A hotel with one room" he added with a wink causing Jeremy to shudder and look a tad queasy, shooting a look of desperation at me pleading with me.

"Just a road trip Jer, nothing like that, more like I have no idea, a hotel with two separate rooms and don't tell Jenna please" I asked smiling and waving as I was dragged out the door and into Damons sports car.

He shoved the suitcases in the boot and opened my door signalling for me to do so, when I was sat in with the belt buckled he closed the door smirking at a confounded Jer in the doorway and moved to get in the car on the other side, He cast a wink at Jer and I turned from Damon to Jer to Damon again to be caught by his lips, I couldn't control myself, automatically my arms hooked around his neck and he deepened the kiss before releasing me, my cheeks were flushed, Jeremy was still stood in the doorway as I saw Damon wave as I slunk in my seat not wanting to have any eye contact with my brother at all as of this moment that was all highly embarrassing after my speech in the house and I knew that was exactly why Damon had kissed me.

"Well Elena that was unexpected, seeing as this isn't a Romantic getaway and you are not sharing a room with me" I turned to glare at him seeing him smirking back at me.

"You're impossible Damon Salvatore" I growled turning my back on him to stare out the window.

"I think you'll find that everything is possible Elena" he whispered into my ear his lips lightly brushing my cheek as he moved away.

Okay so please review ! Can't wait to see what you think...

What do you think is the reason behind the road trip and will it give us a clue to Damons mystery mind powers! Love Steph x
