Disclaimer: Sorry didn't put this in the 1st chap. I don't own Vampire Diaries, although I would love to have Damon ;)
Chapter 3: I'm sorry
Alexis walked up to their graves. She stopped about three feet in front of them, taking a deep breath. She knew that she needed to talk to them, to tell them… She took another deep breath and walked up to her parents' graves. She bent down, facing her mother's headstone.
"Hey Mom, Dad." She whispered, her voice shaking with emotion. "I know it's been a long time since I was here last, and for that, I'm sorry. I just couldn't deal with it. First you guys, and then Elena's parents… I just couldn't take it. I had to leave, to run away… And I know, running away doesn't solve anything. You always told me that Dad, and now, I realize that you were right." She stopped, wiping away the tears that were falling down her cheeks.
"I had to come back. I needed to see you guys again… I miss you so much. I missed everyone here so much too." She cleared her throat. "I just wanted to come back here and apologize… I know that I wasn't the perfect daughter, and for that, I'm sorry. I should've been better, I shouldn't've-" She cut off, hearing a twig snap behind her. She jumped up, turning around, getting into a fighting stance. She saw Damon standing behind her, holding his hands up in surrender.
"Whoa, easy there." He said.
"Are you following me?" She asked, glaring at him. He chuckled.
"Ah, no. My parents are buried here too. I heard you crying and came to see if you were okay." Damon replied.
"Oh, I'm okay. Sorry for jumping down your throat like that." She said, relaxing a little. Damon chucked, knowing that he would be the one to jump down onto her throat not the other way around. Alexis looked at him, confused.
"It's okay, most people think I'm stalking them." Alexis laughed, wiping the tears off of her cheeks. "I'm Damon, by the way, Damon-""Salvatore, Stefan's older brother." Alexis finished. "I'm Alexis, Lexi, Langton. Nice to meet you."
"Pleasure is all mine." He replied, "So, you've met Stefan huh?" Alexis nodded.
"Yeah, he was at Elena's house earlier. He really didn't say much though."
"Yeah, that's Stefan. He's the broody and silent type." Alexis scoffed.
"And you're not, right?"
"Nope, not my style. I'm more, open and dangerous." He said. Alexis noticed that when he said "open" , his eyes widened a little.
"Dangerous huh?" Damon nodded. "Hmm. What's life without a little danger?" She asked, causing Damon to smirk. All of a sudden, she blushed. "I'm so sorry. I don't know what got into me. I'm normally not so-""Straightforward?" Damon asked. Alexis nodded. "It's good. I like a girl that knows what she wants." Alexis smiled. "Do you want to get out of here?"
"I don't know…" She replied, she really didn't know him all that well, and she didn't trust people that easily.
"Aw come on, you look like you need to have some fun." Damon urged.
"That obvious, huh?" Alexis replied, Damon nodded. "I guess so, yeah. But I need to head back to Elena's house once school is out." Damon nodded, once again. "Where are we going?"
"Want to head back to my place?" He asked her. She looked at him, more doubt, and a little anger creeping into her mind.
"Um, that's not my style." She said, angry at herself for almost being used… again.
"Not for that." Damon growled. "Not all guys want women for sex." Some just want them for their blood, Damon's mind added. Alexis blushed.
"I-I'm so incredibly sorry. I just… I've been used way too much."
"It's fine. Let's just go have a good time." Alexis nodded. Damon headed over to his car.
"That's your car?" Lexi asked, seeing the beautiful blue car. She loved old muscle cars. Damon nodded. "Beautiful." Damon smirked.
"Almost as nice as that 67 Impala you got there." He replied, causing Alexis to grin. He got in his car and started it. She got in her Impala and followed Damon as he drove off towards his house.
