NEW CHAPTER!
-Good morning beautiful- I heard someone whisperer in my ear. It is incredible how those simple words could make my day as happy as never before.
-Well good morning handsome- I said with a smile as I embraced him. He wanted to kiss me but I put my hand between his lips and mine.
-Morning breath- I said with a smile.
He shook his head –You should have told me that before. If there is one thing I do hate is bad breath-.
I faked to be upset and turned around and give him the back –Well, you should have thought about that before kissing me. Now that you have become addicted to it, it will be a real torture for you-.
He smiled and got out of bed –Now let´s go to my favorite part of the day… I´ll help you bath, you know I´ll hate that your human clumsiness will make you fall in the shower and heat your beautiful face- His smile. Oh God, that smile must be illegal!
-No, I am going to shower, while you are going to go to your house and get ready as well. Today´s my first day of school remember?- I knew that it didn't mattered if I was going to school or not. Klaus was going to take me away. But I wanted to enjoy my life before everything was over.
He took my by the waist and gave me a kiss –God, you do really have a bad breath- He said with his smiled that told me he was joking. I just shook my head and ran to the bathroom to get ready.
School was… intense. Alaric was my teacher of history and Caroline being a vampire, Bonnie a witch, Elena a Doppelgänger and I a vampire hunter, we were a nice group to behold.
Elena was quiet most of the time and at lunch time I could see she was nervous.
-Clam down. His not here- I said with a weak smile and giving her a little hug.
-There´s another thing that also bother me- She started as she let out a sigh –Can I talk to you for a minute?-.
I nodded and we went to the nearest tree where we could have some privacy –I don't know how to say this but… Kira, Damon is a very unstable person… vampire- She corrected –I do not doubt that anyone that has eyes can fall in love with you. But not him. His…- But I just stopped her.
-Stop Elena. Okay? I really consider you my friend. You have been really nice to me since I came here. But I do not think you have the right to interfere in my personal life if I do not give you that power-.
-I really like you too Kira, and I am so grateful that you have saved my life. And that is why I don't want you to get hurt. Damon is… he is someone that has suffered a lot! I don´t think that you can fix him-.
-And you can?- I asked her softly. I wanted to get into the bottom of this. She looked at me surprised.
-I know what Damon feel for you. What do you feel for him?- She looked at me with big brown eyes.
-I love Stephan- She crossed her arms and looked at me directly in the eyes.
-That wasn´t my question Elena. What is what you feel for Damon?- She stand there and looked at one side frustrated.
-Think about that. I will not judge you. But I don´t think you are right as to think of him as insensible. I think Damon can feel with much more power than you and I would ever could- I put a hand in her shoulder –Does not matter what happen. You are my friend- I gave her a weak smile and walk towards the table again.
My heart ached of course at the possibility she loved him back and he would just vanish from my life. But I preferred that than to live a lie, even if it was for a short time.
My classes ended and I was in the parking lot when I found Damon resting his perfect body against my black Traverse.
-How bad was it?- He asked as he, taking me by surprise, hugged me in front of everyone and gave me a kiss in the forehead.
-Not that bad. Ric is a very good teacher. And Bonnie, Caroline and Elena had been really nice with me- I said with a sad smile.
-But…- He searched for my eyes and took my chin in his hand.
-Nothing- I smile and turned to see Elena staring at us as she took a deep breath and continue walking.
-What was that?- He insisted again.
-Nothing really. Girls stuff- I smiled and gave him a kiss in the cheek.
His cellphone started to ring and he picked it up –Little bro. What the hell do you want now- He smiled at me and I could see real happiness in his eyes.
Suddenly his expression changed –What the hell was the Gilbert boy doing there?-.
-What´s wrong?- I asked him concerned and tried to hear the conversation but I couldn´t.
-Well, he deserves whatever happens to him if he was as stupid as to face Katherine alone- He rolled his eyes after I punched him lightly in the arm with annoyance at his words.
-Fine, fine. We´ll be right there- Stephan said something and Damon looked at me –Kira. I am picking her up-.
Another silence and Damon clenched his jaw –My business brother. Better you think of how to get your brother in law out of the grave than to mess with me- He hung up and then made me get into the co-driver's seat before he enter the travers in the driver's seat and extend me his hand to lend him the keys.
-What´s going on?- I asked again as I gave him the keys.
-Jeremy tried to take the moonstone from Katherine. Actually he did it but now he is stuck in the grave with her. Believe me, he will have fun-.
I looked at him with a frown and closed my arms. He cleared his throat –Come beauty, she is a bitch-.
I just rolled my eyes and let him drive. I could not stop thinking that Elena could be in love with him. I could not think I could handle it.
-Are you going to tell me what the hell is going on in that head of yours or I have to compel you to tell me?-.
-You wouldn't dare!- I looked at him in disbelieve.
-Oh of course I would. You perfectly know that I am far from being a saint Kira. And I don´t like you hiding me things-.
-You still keep things away from me. Why can´t I?- I asked him raising my chin threatening him.
-Like what?- He frowned as he drive his way to the Boarding House.
-Well everything. I don´t know lots of things about you- I said as I turned to face him.
He just stared at the road with a clenched jaw –There are things you will never know from me. I can´t… I can´t tell you. So, if that´s what you are waiting for…- Even when his words where hard, his eyes turned and looked at me with softness and hurt.
I kept quiet and as we reached the Boarding House and I get out of the car. We got in and I saw Stephan and Bonnie.
-Where´s Elena?- I asked looking around. I also couldn't find Rose.
Stephan took a deep breath and shook his head –I don´t know. I´ve been trying to reach her for hours-.
-Last time I saw her she was at school- I said to him –Where´s Rose?-.
-Crap- Said Damon as he shook his head –Now what the hell is going on?- He was mad, really mad.
-We don´t have time. Jeremy is in that grave! I´ll have to break the spell- Said Bonnie. I knew she had a crush with Jeremy and this meant a lot to her.
-One problem at the time- I said as I tried to calm everyone –The only way I can think of getting Jeremy out of there is that I kill Katherine-.
-NO!- Said Damon as he took me strongly by the arm and looked at me straight in the eyes.
Everyone held their breath at the vehemence of Damon –I can believe that after all this years you still care for her, brother?- Stephan broke the silence and I was deeply grateful that he did it because Damon´s eyes were burning my skin.
Damon´s eyes turned to look at Stephan and frowned as if he had just said the most absurd thing in the universe –What? Just keep your dammed mouth shut Stephan- He then turned towards me and locked his eyes with mine –No way you are getting into that tomb. I will not let you-.
-Is the only way. I am the only one that can get in and out- I whisperer –Jeremy could die if she take´s the ring from him. I also have a ring. Remember I talked you about it. I found it in my parent´s room-.
-I said no. Find another way. Break the spell. You and I are going to search for Elena, while you try to find a spell that will let us get the Gilbert boy out-.
-Damon, stop it! I will help Jeremy and Bonnie is not strong enough to break the spell. I can do this!- I said as my cheeks started to get redder.
Stephan took a deep breath –Damon is right Kira, you are just recovering from our last problem. You are not strong enough right now to deal with Kathrine-.
-As I said, you stay as far away form that tomb as you can. I´ll call you when we reach Elena- Damon dragged me out of the door and as soon as we were out I set my arm free –Calm down okay? What the hell is your problem?- I asked him in disbelieve as I hated to be told what to do. I was a grown up girl.
He didn´t respond and instead he dialed Rose´s number – Where's Elena?- I heard him demand her,
-Thank the heaven you called. She´s about to do something stupid- Said the voice at the other line.
Damon opened his blue eyes and his mood didn´t lighted a bit- We are on our way. Take care of her, or I´ll cut your head-.
We got into the car and we started to make our way. We didn´t said a word to each other. Not even one.
When we reached the apartment when Elena was waiting for Elijah Damon had a shadow all over his expression.
-Stay here- And with that he disappeared. Oh this was so frustrating. He was treating me as if I was just made of crystal, or stupid enough to ruin all. But I would not be held against my will in a car ever again.
I got out and started to make my way inside.
-When did I ever take a decision? – I heard Elena´s voice said.
-Is not very polite to listen to others conversations- I turned around and saw Elijah standing behind me.
-Klaus did a deal with you didn´t he?- He asked me as he enclosed his eyes and looked at me with his hands in his pockets and walking towards me.
-I don't know what are you talking about- I said as I looked at him straight in the eyes and lift my chin.
-Rumors do not lie when they say you are gorgeous Kira Adrian. But I wonder if smart enough? My only advice for you is to choose the right side, because if not… you will die- He took my chin in his hand and I got out of his reach rudely.
-I am afraid you and I should talk latter you see. I have to save the life of the Doppelgänger and the oldest Salvatore alive, excuse me- He disappeared and I heard the conversation upstairs shut down.
I ran upstairs as quickly as my legs could let me and I saw Elijah throwing two hearts to the floor beside the bodies that contained them. The scene gave me chills and I really wanted to throw up.
-Kira!- Damon looked at me in shock, anger and worry. But I knew that anger was the strongest of his emptions.
-Move one muscle and she´s dead- Said Elijah as he looked at me in the eyes and passed his fingers full of blood threw my cheek –Keep them safe Salvatore- He smiled and got closer to me until I had his mouth in my ear. Damon made of his hands two fists and started to walk towards us made a furry.
-You and I, we have to talk- And with that he was gone. Could just one vampire get out of a room without their dramatically speed? I guessed not.
-Both of you. Get your asses in the fucking car RIGHT NOW!- Yelled Damon as mad as hell. Well the bad news was that it was me the one that had to endure most of the rage.
Elena and I went to the car and didn´t said a word until we reached the boarding house.
-You two are the most stupid women I had ever met. You, trying to play the heroine and scarifying yourself, well here´s news for you Elena, we are all going to die anyway. If Klaus, made the sacrifice he will not stop. He will want all of us dead for getting in his way-.
Elena just put a hand between them letting him know she had heard enough –I know that what I did was wrong. But I will not anyone die for my cause. And I will take my decisions from now on Damon. Even if you like it or not-.
She went to the house and disappeared in the door. I could not escape so easily.
He wasn´t even looking at me. I took a deep breath and raised my hands in surrender. I made my way following Elena but it wasn´t going to be that easy.
-Why you can´t do a single fucking thing I tell you?- His jaw was so clenched I really thought he was going to break it.
-I don´t like to be treated like an idiot. I can help and I will- I said as I tried to get closer to him.
-I know you are not an idiot. Point proved. Now can you please do as I said? I have enough trying to safe Elena´s ass from all the trouble she gets herself into- Now that made me mad.
-Oh well, don´t worry Damon. I am not yours or anyone´s responsibility. I can perfectly take care of myself. If you want to play the nanny, there´s Elena. Now if you excuse me-.
-This is not going to work- He whispered in my back.
His words hurt me like hell. I loved him so much but we were so different. Or maybe so similar that none of us will give in.
-The only thing I can tell you is that I will do anything to protect you- I said looking at nowhere with my eyes stained in tears.
He turned me around and locked his eyes in mine –What are you talking about?- He demanded as he put both of his hands in my arms.
I shook my head with a sad smile –She feels for you Damon- I said as I looked at him straight in the eyes and saw his confusion.
-You wanted to know what was in my head in the afternoon. Well that´s it. Elena talked with me. She asked me to stay away from you saying you were dangerous. I asked her what she felt for you…- His blue eyes looked at me in shock.
-She didn´t said anything, but I could see in her eyes, that deep down, she feels something Damon- I bit my lip and shook my shoulders – I thought you should know-.
In that moment Elena appeared with tears in her eyes –Stephan! He´s trapped in the tomb with Katherine-.
Damon rolled his eyes and shook his head –For God´s sake can we just have one moment of peace!-.
Stephan trapped with Katherine, Elena feeling something for Damon, Damon feeling something for me, me loving him, Klaus in town and Elijah wanting to have a "conversation" with me. Things where just starting to get dramatic. And if only I knew this was the tip of the iceberg…
SOOOOO…. HERE IT IS. HOPE YOU LIKED IT.
