Bound To You
Chapter 7:
Silence.
2 hours worth of silence.
I can't even blame him this time. I instigated everything. It's my fault that we have been siting in complete silence for 2 hours. It's my fault that he won't even look at me. And to top it all off, it's my fault that I have once again, hurt him.
But none of this should have happened. None of it. And yet the only regret I have was stopping him.
As soon as Damon and I were out the doors of the bar, we rushed as fast as we could to my car.
Before I could blink Damon was pushing me up against the side of my Elantra, his lips on mine. Just like in the bar, my body quickly caught fire. The fire seemed to grow hotter and hotter the more of him I got; I gladly welcome the burn of his lips against mine.
Everything about this moment was incredible. The way his lips felt on mine, the way our hips felt against each other, his hard chest against mine, his tongue...
"God, you're so beautiful." Damon whispers against my lips.
I can't help but smile as I look up in his lust filled blue eyes. "Mmhm," I tangle my fingers in his dark hair and smash my lips against his. 'God those lips...'
I quickly lose any train of thought as soon as his lips were on my neck, biting me slightly with his blunt human teeth. I release a moan only resulting in Damon wrapping my legs around his waist, making sure there was as little space between us as possible.
"God, that feels so good." I say pulling his lips away from my neck.
"It's Damon actually," he says with a smirk.
"Shut up." I growl as I pull his body closer to mine.
I was about to attack his lips again only to be interrupted by someone whistling. I look over to see 3 guys, in their early 20s, looking right at Damon and I. The sight of them was what broke me out of my lust filled haze.
Damon chuckles, ignoring them, "So where were we?" he asks with a smirk trying to kiss me again.
I untangle myself from Damon and push him away. 'What the hell am I doing?' "No where." I say as I try to walk past Damon, only to be pushed right back up against my car.
"Are you seriously going to pretend that didn't happen?"
"It was a mistake, Damon. That never should have happened."
"We both know that's a lie."
I ignore his comment, "I've been drinking and I'm upset. I didn't mean to give you mixed signals. It didn't mean anything."
Damon laughs humorlessly, "That is complete and utter bullshit," his voice void of any emotion.
"Whatever Damon." I say avoiding his eye contact.
"Is that the same piece of crap your going to feed my brother?" he forces me to look him right in the eye, "I was drunk. It didn't mean anything." he mocks in a high voice.
"Your brother has nothing to do with this." I spit out through my teeth.
"He has everything to do with this!" he yells. "You're an idiot if you think otherwise."
"I love your brother, Damon! I love Stefan! It's always going to be Stefan!" I yell back, frustration very clear in my voice. 'Why do those words feel different saying them? Why does it feel like I'm forcing them out of my mouth?'
"If that's so true, if your love for my brother is so unbreakable, then what the hell is going on here?"
"I just told you-"
"Don't even try to recycle that bullshit again, Elena." he says quietly, "This is not the first time something like this has happened between us, and it most likely won't be our last."
I'm completely speechless as he continues to gaze at me, hurt very evident in his beautiful blue eyes. "You're lying to me, and you're lying to Stefan, but most of all you're lying to yourself." he says cupping my cheeks lightly.
I open my mouth to respond only for him to cut me off, "Don't try to deny it, Elena. We both know the truth, even if you refuse to admit it now." he steps back allowing me to breathe again, "I'll be here when you are." he says as he gets into my car.
We both know the truth, even if you refuse to admit it now. I'll be here when you are...
I've replayed the scene outside of the bar over and over in my head for the past 2 hours. But more haunting then his words was the vulnerability in Damon's eyes.
This is not the first time something like this has happened between us, and it most likely won't be our last…
I look over at Damon and can practically feel the tension rolling off of him. His hands were gripping the steering wheel like his life depended on it. I'm actually surprised that the wheel didn't morph under the stain of his hands.
"So are you going to talk to me at some point or keep ignoring me?" I say, unable to hold in my frustration anymore.
"I'm not ignoring you." Damon says, focusing on the road a head of him.
"Okay. Now say that while looking at me." the annoyance very evident in my voice.
His silence was enough of an answer.
"You are unbelievable-" my rant was interrupted by the sound of my phone ringing.
I look at the Caller ID and debating whether to answer or not.
"She's just going to keep calling you until you pick up." Damon says glancing at my phone.
I release a sigh before answering the phone. "Hi Caroline."
"Elena! Where are you?" Caroline's voice screeches through my phone.
"On my way back to Mystic Falls-"
"Wait you left? Why did you leave? What happened? What-"
"Care, if you want any answers you need to let me talk." I say releasing a sigh before continuing. "Stefan and I broke up-"
"What?! Are you okay? What happened!-"
"Caroline!" I interrupt her once again, "Stop talking!" She apologizes and I continue. "Stefan went behind my back, to get Bonnie to help me with Damon. He said that he was doing it for my own good that Damon and I need to get over our issues. Which only caused us to fight and then we broke up." I say in a huff.
"Elena," she whines, "do you really think that is worth you and Stefan to be broken up over?" I try to interrupt her but she just keeps talking, "Stefan is your epic love, Elena."
"Look Caroline," I say getting very angry very fast. I hate it when she does that! Who died and gave her the power to tell me whom I should love? "Stefan doesn't trust me enough for me to get over the imaginary issues I have with Damon, myself." sighing I look over at Damon, he has a concerned look in his eyes as he looks back at me.
"Elena-"
"Caroline I'm fine. Damon and I are coming back home. I'll talk to you later. " I hang up before she could say anymore.
"Ah!" I yell throwing my phone onto the dashboard.
"Well we know which Salvatore she likes more." Damon says grinning at me.
I can't help but laugh at his comment, "What, now you're talking to me?"
"I'm not ignoring you, Elena. I'm not mad about what happened. I don't want to talk about it, but I get it." He says with a sigh.
"Then what's wrong?" I ask concerned.
"I just don't know how we're going to deal with all of this," he says as he furrows his eyebrows.
"Am I going crazy or is Damon Salvatore worried?" I mock, resulting in one of Damon's breath-taking smiles. 'God I love that smile.'
"Go a head and mock me all you like, but you know as well as I do that this," he says gesturing to the air between us, "predicament that we are in, is going to be difficult to deal with."
I nod. Damon's right. Simple everyday things are going to be a challenge but not impossible. Speaking of everyday things...
"Damon, can we go back to the Boarding House? Stefan is probably at mine and I want to avoid him a least until tomorrow."
He nods failing to hide the smirk on his face. 'Cue commentary…'
"Is Elena Gilbert asking to spend the night with me?" Damon says with a mocking shocked expression.
I roll my eyes and focus on the passing scenery for the remainder of the ride.
The Boarding House was quiet when we arrived. Stefan's car wasn't in the driveway indicating that I was right about him waiting for me at home. I follow Damon up the stairs to his bedroom and stop just within the threshold causing Damon to walk into the barrier.
"Is there a problem?" Damon says turning around to look at me.
I eye the bed and look back at him. "Elena the bed is huge and I won't try anything." He smirks before he continues, "Unless you're worried that you won't be able to keep your hands off my incredible body."
I roll my eyes at him, "No Damon. Unlike you I can keep my hands off your body." Damon raises an eyebrow at me. 'Shit! Why did that just come out of my mouth!' "You know I didn't mean it like that."
"Sure, Elena." He chuckles as he walks over to his dresser and throws me one of his black t-shirts.
"Thanks." I say, watching as he proceeds to stand there looking at me. "I'm not changing in front of you Damon."
"Why? It's not like I haven't seen that body naked before?" My eyes grow wide, "Calm down. It was Katherine's body. But you know, one doppelganger's body is another doppelganger's body." He says winking at me.
"Damon!"
"Fine, fine." He says turning around.
I quickly change into Damon's shirt and put my clothes on his desk. I turn around just in time to see him taking off his clothes. I can't help but watch as his muscles on his back ripple as he pulls his t-shirt over his head. He walks back over to his dresser and pulls out a pair of pajama pants. He doesn't hide his grin as glances over at me.
"You know," Damon says as he turns to look at me, "that is a good look for you." He eyes me as he pops the button of his jeans.
"And like I said the last time I was forced into wearing minimal clothing in front of you, you're disgusting." I say getting very distracted by his chest.
I look down the length of his chest and torso just in time to see him start to pull down the zipper of his jeans. As soon as I start to see a bit of skin I realize this is why he was grinning.
"Damon!" I spin around, trying to stop myself from blushing.
"Yes Elena?" he asks faking innocents.
"You're 170 years old and you still don't know to put on boxers!"
He laughs, "The less clothing the better, is my motto."
'Oh God. What am I getting myself into…'
I hope you all enjoyed this chapter as much as i enjoyed writing it. I had so much fun writing the flashback and showing the more romantic side of Damon.
As usual, please review and let me know what you think of this chapter.
Until next time :D
