Hello everyone. Okay I have to say this; the last chapter was a disappointment I only got 3 reviews. So it would be awesome if I got more this time. Anyway thanks to those who reviewed. Enjoy the chapter!

Elena entered the class and took a seat. Caroline and Bonnie followed suit then sat at either side of her. The bell rang and Mr. Saltzman, their history teacher entered the room passing Damon at the door. He greeted the class and began his lesson.

Elena took out her notebook and tried to concentrate, but gave up after a few minutes and began writing Damon's name repeatedly in her notebook. History was never her favorite subject and besides her mind was elsewhere, yup right outside the class room. That was when she felt a paper ball thrown at her, without even turning around she knew who it would be Stefan.

Stefan, the jerky football hero had a crush on Elena since God knows how long, and he never missed a chance to try his luck with her. Whereas she on the other hand wasn't interested in him at all, he was a jerk along with his annoying group of friends.

As the second paper ball made contact with her back she turned around with a glare. If looks could kill Stefan would be dead by now. "What?" she mouthed angrily. He simply shrugged and indicated towards the paper lying next to her, "Read it." her mouthed back. Reluctantly she garbed it off the floor and read, "Wanna go out with me tonight, just you and me no bodyguard allowed!" She turned around slowly, stared coldly at him and tore the paper and threw the pieces at him, showering him with the bits.

As she turned back towards the front she heard sniggers, most probably Klaus and Tyler; part of Stefan's jerk clan laughing at their friend on the embarrassing rejection. A satisfied smile spread across Elena's face, serves him right.

The excruciatingly long day of school went on until it was 3:00 pm and then it was time for cheer practice. Elena was the head cheerleader, and it had nothing to do with being ultra rich, she was pretty good at it and that was putting it mildly. Caroline was on the team with her as well. Elena loved cheer-leading and it also had its benefits in Elena's perspective; Damon would tend to her whenever she would get hurt, and she thought that was amazing. Even though it was just a part of his job, it was still all the same to her like actual caring. But there were a few things Elena wished weren't the way they were. Like Katharine Pierce; the slut bitch and her Evil minions being on the team. That bitch had an eye for her Damon, HER DAMON! The audacity of that woman!

Elena exited her last class and found Damon patiently waiting for her right outside of it. She linked her arm with his and dragged him towards the girls changing room. As they reached it she stopped and turned towards him, "I'll be back in a minute." She smiled at him and he nodded in response.

Elena went inside and got changed into one of her numerous practice out fits. Today she was going with a short black shorts and a fitted black shirt that defined each and every perfect curve of her body. As she noticed herself in the changing room mirror, all she thought was about Damon admiring her. She strongly believed that she was made only for Damon and whatever she was or had was restricted for the rest of the world, the girl's beliefs were akin to fairy tale romances; even in this time period. But it was her bad luck; she made hundreds of heads turn but she couldn't grab the attention of the one she was aiming for.

Elena sighed sadly at the mirror and turned to leave. She got out of the changing room with a feeble attempt at a seductive smile. Damon glanced at her, and then started walking. HE DIDN'T EVEN LOOK AT ME A SECOND TIME!, Elena huffed in aggression and followed quickly behind. Upon hearing the loud huff Damon smirked, knowing full well not getting the desired reaction had made her angry, Serves her right for annoying the hell out of me.

They reached the football field where a set of girls was already gathered. Katherine was in the center, with her minions Rebecca, Vicky, Andie and Rose surrounding her. Caroline was standing with the rest of the squad Anna, Lexi and Danna waiting for Elena. As Damon and Elena stepped on the field the 'bitch squad' turned their attention towards them. With a slutty grin plastered across her face, Katharine proceeded towards them," Hello Damon." she said in her confident manner. If there was anything that angered Elena more than Katherine herself it was her behavior towards Damon, the way she stared hungrily at him as if she was gonna eat him alive made her blood boil.Come on how could she do that! Damon was hers and nobody, nobody was allowed to even dream about him in that way; especially not Katharine.

So before Damon could respond Elena intervened "Hello Katharine." she said through clenched teeth and put her arm around his waist, as if to say 'back off'. The gesture didn't go unnoticed by Katherine, however she ignored it and continued as if Elena wasn't even there. "How are you doing, Damon?"

Damon, who was currently staring at Elena's arm around him,and was thinking about the stupidest situation one could get involved in; which was exactly what he was going through now. Being the infatuation of two teenagers; both who were at opposite extremes in nature, one was his boss's daughter and the other was a complete...vamp, for a lack of a better word. However both were complete nuisances. He never wanted to be in such a position, it was humiliating and frustrating. Fate wasn't on his side even in this aspect. He extracted Elena's arm from his waist and looked straight in Katharine's eyes. Wanting to get out of this situation quickly so that he could go and stand at his usual waiting spot, he gave her a half smile and said politely," I'm fine Miss Katherine."

And that was all it took for Elena's fragile heart to break. She stared at Damon in shock and started thinking, he acted differently with her, he prefers Katherine. Tears streaked her cheeks, she couldn't control them and they kept on coming. On hearing a sob Damon and Katherine turned towards her. Seeing her tearful face Damon realized instantly what had happened to her.

Elena knew it was childish but she couldn't help it. Feeling immensely humiliated Elena did the only thing she could, she ran. In turn she left an awestruck Damon and Katharine with a smirk across her face, behind.
