Bound To You

Chapter 8:

The next morning I'm slowly woken up by someone running their fingers up and down my arm. It was really soothing; calming my whole body. I snuggle into the person's chest and practically purr at the sensations. I can't help but whine as soon as they stop, igniting a laugh out of them, a laugh that I would recognize anywhere. "Damon!" I yell jumping off his chest, "What the- Oh my God." I say as everything from the day before comes back to me, "That all really happened yesterday. It wasn't just a dream." I say under my breath.

"Nope. Just add that to the list of wonderful things that has happened to you." Damon says. I grab the pillow behind, me and whack Damon in the face with it. "Was that really necessary, Elena?"

"What happened to you not trying anything?"

"Hey, I kept my promise. It's not my fault that you couldn't keep your hands off of me." He says with a smirk.

Rolling my eyes, I look over and watch as Damon stretches causing the silk sheets slide dangerously low on his body.

Sitting up, I stretch out my back, "I need a shower. So, do you mind?"

"Is that an invitation?" Damon smirks as he slides out of bed.

"No." I say as I follow him to his incredibly large bathroom, "Damon!"

Damon doesn't say anything as he turns the water on in the shower. His Glass shower. 'This would only happen to me.'

"Thanks." I say as Damon hands me a towel wordlessly, and leans against the sink. "Damon, don't make me say it." I give him a warning look.

"Fine." he sighs theatrically, "You're no fun in the morning."

After he turned around I take a quick shower, keeping an eye on Damon just in case he did turn to look at me. As soon as I was done I dry off and quickly put on the clothes I was wearing from the day before.

"Your turn." I say as I ring out some of the water from my hair with the towel. I turn to face the mirror as Damon jumps in the shower. My eyes involuntary keep moving to watch the reflection of the shower as I finish getting ready. My conscience keeps scalding me each time my eyes look over at Damon; each time it seems to get quieter and quieter. I forcefully try to calm down my heartbeat as I watch the water droplets run down Damon's chest down to his- 'Elena!'

My cheeks immediately get hot when I notice Damon smirking in the reflection. 'God! Why me? Why me? Why me?'

"Elena." I reluctantly look back at Damon's reflection and watch as he steps out of the shower and walks up right behind me.

"How is it fair," he whispers seductively in my ear, "that I can't watch you in the shower but you can watch me?"

"I wasn't watching you." I say trying to prevent myself from blushing anymore.

"Really..." he says as he purposely brushes his body into mine as he reaches over for the clean towel. I internally curse myself when my breathing hitches, causing Damon to grin. "I don't believe you."

I was saved from saying anything by the sound of someone knocking on Damon's bedroom door. "Elena."

"Just a second, Stefan." I say as I motion for Damon to get dressed. By the time I am at the door Damon is fully dressed drying his hair with the towel. "What do you want Stefan?"

"Can we talk about yesterday?" he asks pleadingly, pulling at my heartstrings. 'Stay strong Gilbert.'

"What is there to talk about? The fact you don't trust me or that you went behind my back to try to 'help me'?" I say using air quotes around 'help me'.

"Elena it was for your own good."

"Enlighten me Stefan. How exactly was binding me to your brother 'for my own good'?" The longer the conversation goes on the angrier I'm getting.

Damon, knowing me so well, realized this right away. "Okay, Elena. He got the point your mad, he's sorry. Now let's go before either of you say something stupid." he says pushing me out of his bedroom and towards the stairs.

"Damon-"

"Don't worry Stef. I'll have our girlfriend calmed down for you when we get home."

Damon and I step outside and walk to his Camaro. As soon as we pull out of the drive way I hear my phone ring. I look around the car confused until I see Damon slip it out of his back pocket. "Why do you have my phone? Damon answer me!"

He just ignores me, "Hello Blondie." he says with a smirk.

"Damon?"

"The one and only."

"Damon give me my phone!" I say trying to pry it out of his hand.

"Elena. Have some respect. I'm on the phone," he mocks scolding me.

"Give me the phone!"

"Don't you have anything else to do?" I hear Caroline say through my phone, "Maybe find some children to steal candy from." I try to suppress a laugh, and fail.

Damon glares at me. "Wow Blondie. That's a good one." he say sarcastically and as snarky as possible, "I hope you didn't damage too many brain cells thinking of that one, or did you ask your Lap Dog of a boyfriend to come up with that?"

"I heard that, Dick!" Tyler yells in the background.

"Damon!" I say punching him in the stomach resulting in him rolling his eyes at me and hands me the phone.

"Someone's violent this morning." I hear him say under his breath.

"Hey Care. What do you want?"

"Really, Lena? What do you want? Really?"

"Sorry. Damon and I just woke up and I'm already exhausted." I say with a sigh, "It's-"

"Wait did you just say you and Damon just wake up? As in woke up together?" she says putting emphasis on 'Damon' and 'together'.

"Look Care, it's a long story-" I try to say but Caroline wasn't having any of it.

"Elena Gilbert, please tell me you're not switching Salvatore brothers. Cause I swear to God-"

"Caroline!"

"-think about what you're doing to Stefan! He loves you Elena, and you're breaking his heart by doing this. And of all the guys to going after you pick his asshole of a brother. Just because he's hot and amazing in bed doesn't mean-"

"Caroline I am not in the mood for a lecture that I don't need." I say looking at Damon and noticing that his face is completely emotionless. If I didn't know better I would think that he wasn't listening in on my conversation. "If you want to talk and actually know the truth, instead of jumping to conclusions, then let me know." I say and hang up the phone.

After a few moments of silence, I can't hold in my frustration anymore. "God she just gets on my nerves sometimes. I love Caroline like a sister but God sometimes I just want to kill her. She constantly thinks that she knows everything that's happening between the 3 of us but in reality she knows shit!" I say taking a huge gulp of air. I look over at Damon and see him trying to fight back a smile. "What the hell are you smiling about?"

"Hot and amazing in bed. That's how Caroline describes me?" he says with a smirk, "and she wonders why I don't believe her when, she says she hates me and can't stand the sight of me." I roll my eyes. Typical Damon. 'Talk about a 1 track mind.'

"Seriously. That's what you got from her ridiculous lecture? Your skills in bed?"

"That was the only part that you should've listened too, Elena." he says looking at me, "That was the only part of her lecture that was 1000% true." he winks at me.

"Where are you taking me?" I ask changing the subject. I don't know why but thinking of Caroline being with Damon is just making me angry and a little hurt. 'What the hell is going on with me?'

"Home. I need to give Ric the 411 on our little situation. The last thing I need is for him to see me in bed with you, and him staking me in my sleep."

"Good idea." I say as he pulls up to my house and turns off the ignition.

"And while I'm doing that you're going to call Judgy and get her to unbind us." he says eyeing me and rushes on when I try to argue, "You are doing this Elena. Even if I have to compel you into doing it."

"You wouldn't dare." I say through my teeth.

"Try me." he narrows his eyes at me, challenging me to defy him, "I. Dare. You."

We stare at each other in silence, just daring the other to look away, both of us refusing to back down but both knowing exactly how it's going to play out.


So that's the end of chapter 8. I hope you all enjoyed it.
