Hello, my lovely readers. There is a LOT of Delena in this chapter. Enjoy!

Chapter 8: Damon Salvatore vs. Elena Salvatore

After Stefan pulled out of the driveway Damon turned around and walked back into the Boarding House after he stole the key from Stefan. Walking downstairs he found Elena sitting on the floor of the cell. "I thought you better things to do than to entertain me." Turning her head slowly Elena glared at Damon.

"Yeah, about that… It turns out that we have some unfinished business." Leaning against the wall opposite the cell Damon watched Elena stand up and then press her face against the bars.

"Was it so good you came back for more?" Elena sneered at Damon.

"You know Lena as promising as it sounds to come into that cell and have more hot vampire sex I figure chances are you would just rip my thorat out. Since I'm not a vampire I think I need to not let you kill me." Smirking as Elena began to bang on the door.

"Let me out you stupid child. I swear to God I will get out of here and drain you and all your stupid family and your stupid friends." Giving the door a vicious kick Elena turned her back.

Damon began to chuckle. "You know who you remind me of right now."

"I don't give damn what you think you idiot." Elena snarled pacing the length of the cell. "I'm going to feed you your own intestines."

"Oh, no. You're going to want to hear this one," Damon replied.

Stopping Elena walked over to the door. "Why the hell should I care about anything you have to say?"

"Because, Lena, my world is a year ahead of yours. You know how badly you want that guy who looks just like me. Well, here's the thing, if he's anything like Katherine he's going to screw you over. He doesn't want you. He's scared of the big bad vampire, Klaus." Damon watched Elena carefully as her eyes light up in wonder.

"You're lying," Elena snapped. "Klaus doesn't exist. He's a myth. If he were real I would have met him. Hell, I would probably being living with him. I admire his work."

Narrowing his eyes Damon shook his head. "Somehow, I highly doubt that. Here's a piece of advice. Get over the guy. He sucks. He's going to hurt you and he's going to try to hand me over to that maniac, Klaus. So, we need to make sure that Klaus does not find me. We really need to talk to Rose. Then again she might go to Elijah on Trevor's behalf." Damon mused.

"What are you going on about?" Elena's head lolled to the side. "Are you always so boring?"

"No. When I'm a vampire I'm awesome." Damon smirked at Elena who rolled her eyes.

Then she looked at him with a big grin. "You know what if you let me out. I promise you I'll turn you."

"Are you kidding me? Do I have stupid written on my forehead? I let you out you kill me. Here's what you need to do, feel. It sucks. I know. There's nothing like a no humanity binge. But you need to let it in. Because I need help. If you don't all lot of people are going to die." Having no idea if Elena in this world was like the Elena Damon knew all he could was try to break through to her.

Giving the door hard kick Elena screamed in frustration. "The first I'm going to do when get out of here is stop by your house and turn Jeremy into a vampire. Then I'm going to watch him suck your Aunt Jenna dry. What the hell, I think I'll take him on a road trip afterward."

Rolling his eyes Damon sat down. "You know that one might work of D. Gilbert but I'm not him. So, go ahead kill the Gilberts. Kill Caroline and Bonnie and burn Mystic Falls High to the ground. I could care less." Damon really hoped Elena was buying this line of bullshit because his damn humanity was driving him nuts with pangs of guilt. 'She's not really do it.' He told himself. 'It's a game of chicken and you don't cluck. You make other people cluck. Poker face.'

Pressing her face to the bars once more Elena frowned. "Why if you're such a badass vampire in our world do you care about what I do in mine?"

Sucking in a deep breath Damon had to think about this one. "Because if there is any part of you that is like the Elena that I knew this isn't you. You're better than this. You loyal and you love your friends and family so much that you'd die to protect them. I get it your Elena Salvatore bad ass vamp extrodinare but I don't believe that there isn't a part of you that isn't human. And this guy, Dominic, he's not going to sweep you off your feet. You're not going to off into the sunset. I know. I've been there."

Elena turned her back on him. "You're wrong. He loves me."

"Really. And I'm the freaking Easter Bunny." Damon pressed on. "You think he's under the church. The one the founders burnt down in 1864, the year you and Stefan were turned." Elena spun around on her heel to stare at Damon.

"How do you know that?" Elena asked pursing her lips.

"You were shot to death. Stefan was as well and I'm guessing that Dominic turned you. Stefan killed your father. You love Stefan more than anything in the world but you fight all the time." Continuing his speech Damon watched Elena's face turn pale.

"You can't know all of that." Sinking to the floor of the cell Elena stared at the ceiling.

Sighing Damon pulled the latch on the door and pulled it open. Elena couldn't find the strength to attack him or to run out of the cell. "Look, Lena, I know it's crazy. I know you don't want to believe me but I'm telling the truth." Damon sank down on the floor beside Elena.

"Why are you telling me all of this?" Elena moaned staring at the ceiling.

"I need your help." Damon replied staring at her.

Turning to him Elena grimaced. "What do you think I can do?"

"Well, the thing is that I'm doppleganger. That's not a good thing at all because there is a seriously evil vampire named Klaus who wants to bleed me dry for some kind of ritual. Now, we're way ahead of his time but things are messed up here. So, I really don't know if there is a possibility that he could come after me sooner." Pausing Damon watched as Elena processed this information.

"But Klaus isn't real." Elena exclaimed pushing herself to her feet. "He can't be."

"Oh but he is." Damon responded also getting to his feet. "Not only does he exist but he's after your precious Dominic who would hand both of us over without a qualm to save his sorry ass."

Flashing forward Elena grabbed Damon by the shirt collar pressing their noses together. "You're lying."

Damon pressed himself closer inclining his head so their lips where a millimeter apart. "Am I?"

Elena's eyes searched his. "You're a bigger jackass than Dominic." She snarled.

"Yes, I am." Damon replied pulling her to him.

Groaning in frustration Elena ripped his shirt off and then his pants. Soon they forgot about doppleganger, revenge and Klaus.

An hour later Elena sat up. "You really aren't Damon Gilbert, are you?"

"Nope." Damon said propping himself up on his elbow and fingering her hair. "And you definitely not Elena Gilbert."

"You're in love with her? The other me." Elena asked.

"Yeah." Damon replied pressing a kiss to her shoulder.

"Are you going to tell her?" Elena laid back down and looked at Damon.

"Yes," Damon said quietly. "Just not any time soon. I don't think she'd take it well."

"Why not?" Elena asked reaching out and stroking his cheek.

"Because she's in love with Stefan."

"Ew." Elena made a gagging face.

"My sentiments exactly." Damon smirked as Elena rolled on top of him.

"I bet I can make you forget all about her." Elena said as she pressed her lips to his.

Another hour later they both becoming tired. "Do you think Stefan would notice if I slpet in this cell tonight?" Damon asked Elena whose head was lying on his chest.

"No, I doubt he'll care. Altough I don't think he'll be too happy that you opened the door."

"We need to negotiate."

"Is that what they call it these days?"

"He'll be happy because your humanity is back on."

"Is it?"

"Isn't?"

"Yes, I suppose so."

"What are you going to do when Dominic come to town?" Elena sighed and rolled away pushing her hands into her hair.

"I don't know, Damon." Damon rolled on top of her and began kiss her stomach. "Well, you could try staking him. Trust me. It'll make you feel better."

"I don't know if I can." Elena whispered.

"If he's anything like Katherine you won't have choice. This guy is a danger to us all." Damon reasoned staring Elena in the eye.

Nodding Elena's eyes pooled with tears. "I loved him so much for so long. I just… I don't know why he would lie to me about being alive."

"Well, he was probably on the run from Klaus but he's also a lying man whore who will do anything to save his own skin." Wiping away Elena's tears Damon began to kiss her again until she forgot all about her sire.

Outside the Salvatore Mansion another raven haired man stood at the door smiling to himself. It had been a long time but he was sure that Elena would be so grateful to see alive and well that she would do virtual anything for him. If she didn't there others who would do his bidding and she pay for her importance. Smiling to himself Dominic leaned forward and rang the doorbell.

To my Guest reviewer: It hadn't even occurred to me that readers might want to see what's happening in Damon S's. world while Damon G. is stuck in his body. So, that is what chapter ten is about. Thank you for the question that really inspired me to look at the story from a different perspective.
