Author's Note: Hope you love the updated version! :D

Megan laughed hysterically as Elena recounted what happened in the middle of the night last night.

"Megan, it's not funny!" Elena groaned, tossing her head back. She should have known this was going to be Megan's reaction.

"Yes it is!" She continued to laugh as she continued to talk, "You saw Alaric, our teacher, naked in your house after having sex with your aunt!"

"He wasn't naked!" Elena flushed red with embarrassment.

"Naked, half naked, same difference." Megan managed to stop laughing enough to see how embarrassed Elena was by this. "Okay, okay, I'm sorry for laughing. It must have been very traumatizing."

Elena covered her face with her hands. "It was." She removed her hands and looked at Megan. "Trust me, I'm happy for them, but that was something no teenager wants to see."

She giggled. "Oh I bet." Elena opened her mouth, about to say something, but the sound of the front door opening stopped her.

Seconds later, Charlene came into the kitchen, practically gliding into the room with the dopiest look on her face as she hummed a happy tune. Megan and Elena stared at her, wondering where this was coming from.

The last time Megan had seen her like this was when Charlene told her about her and Damon, and the blonde had never come home last night. That's when she knew.

"Ohh, you were with Damon, weren't you?" Megan smirked at Charlene teasingly.

"What?" Charlene looked over at her and Elena. "Oh hey when did you guys get here?"

"We've been here the whole time." Elena answered. She rose an eyebrow at her sister. "So, what's going on with you and Damon?"

Charlene grew nervous and it showed on her face. "Oh, well I…"

"You might as well her. She's going to find out eventually." Megan said, and the blonde sighed.

"You're right." Charlene met Elena's gaze. "Damon and I…we're together. I would have told you sooner, but I didn't know how you'd react to the news, considering everything that Damon has done."

Elena took in her words and didn't say anything for what felt like forever. "It's okay." She finally said, "I've always known there was something with you and Damon but…I guess if you can forgive him, I can forgive him too, and if you want to be with him, I'm not going to stop you." She smiled, and Charlene pulled her into a bear hug causing her to laugh and return the hug.

"Thank you. I love you."

"I love you too."

Megan beamed at them both. "Well, that definitely turned out better than I thought it would." Charlene and Elena looked at her, and laughed in agreement, and she clapped her hands together. "Now everyone knows except Bonnie and Caroline and Jeremy and Stefan."

"Oh Stefan definitely found out." Charlene said.

An hour ago…

Charlene let out a fit of giggles as Damon rolled her over onto her back, setting down on the top of her. He smirked down at her as he leaned down and started leaving kisses up and down her neck. Sighing in contentment, Charlene tilted her head back to give him more access.

"Damon…" She sighed his name out, and he smirked against her neck as his hands grabbed hers and he put them above her head. He let one of his hands release her only using one now to keep her own hands above her. Then using his free one, he used it to hitch her nearest leg onto his hip.

Her own hips lifted up to press her core against him. He moaned into her neck in response, and she started to feel his face changing, probably feeling the need to bite her.

"Go…ahead…" Charlene told him with a moan, bucking her hips.

He didn't have to be told twice and his fangs sliced into her neck. Groaning, Charlene tried to get her hands free. Surprisingly, he let her, and she used one of them to bury it into Damon's hair to push his mouth closer to her neck. She let out a moan as he sucked the blood from her. There was something so erotic about him biting into her neck. It always brought her arousal to new heights when he did it, especially when they were having actual sex.

Once he got his fill, he released her neck, pulling back. His mouth was covered with her blood now and lustful part of her couldn't help but think how hot he looked right now.

Seeing the look in her eyes, Damon smirked and moved down to kiss her. She moaned at the taste of her own blood, her tongue sneaking out to lick the rest of it off his mouth like the first time they did. Charlene never thought she would be one of those who got obsessed with sex but that was slowly happening. It probably had more to do with Damon.

"How did you get so good at this?" Charlene asked breathlessly once Damon pulled away from her mouth.

He smirked at her. "Lots and lots of practice." He answered cheekily, leaning down to kiss along her neck again.

Charlene laughed a little as she reached up to stroke his hair, letting her fingers run through his thick locks. "As long as that practice is with me from now on."

"Of course." Taking her hand out his hair, Damon moved his head back to smile at her. "I love you."

Her heart fluttered at his words. "I love you too." As much as she would love to stay here with Damon all day, she needed to go back home, and she sighed. "It's probably time for me to head back home. Elena's probably worried."

"I'm sure you can stay a little bit longer…we could continue this in the shower." Damon said suggestively, doing that eye thing. The very thing that annoyed the hell out of her once upon a time, but now she grew to love it.

"That's very tempting but no." Charlene told him, pecking his lips before she moved them, so she was on top now. She sat up and straddled Damon, smirking down at him as he pouted up at her. "Next time." She kissed him one last time before climbing out of bed and she started looking for her clothes that was scattered in the bedroom.

"You're so mean to me." Damon said, pouting at her again as he lifted himself, letting the covers fall over of him and gather over his hips.

"Well, that's one of my best qualities, and probably one of the reasons why you love me. You like it when I'm a little mean." Charlene purred, turning her head towards him while she put her panties and bra back on. Her eyes raked over his form on the bed and groaned to herself. Remind her again why she had to go back home? Pouting, Charlene finished putting on her clothes but instead of putting on the shirt she had on last night, she grabbed Damon's shirt that she used to sleep in and slipped it on. "I'm stealing this." She informed him.

Damon put his arms behind his head, smirking at her. "That's fine with you, you look better in my clothes anyway."

"Well, thanks." Charlene laughed as she grabbed her bag and hooked it over her shoulder. "I'll see you later, Day. Love you."

"Love you too."

Giving him one last smile, Charlene headed over to his bedroom door and opened it, stepping outside of the room. She closed the door. When she turned around to head downstairs, Stefan was heading her way and he looked shocked to see her coming out of Damon's room in one of his brother's shirts.

"Charlene?"

She blushed in embarrassment, but managed to wave to Stefan in greeting. "Hey, Stef." She quickly sprouted out an explanation, "Uh yes, uh, me and Damon are together. See ya." She quickly left Stefan standing there in shock.

Present…

"Oh wow." Megan laughed. That was almost as embarrassing as Elena's thing. She could already picture the look on Stefan's face when he saw Charlene leaving Damon's room, which made her laugh a little louder.

"I know." Charlene sighed, running her hand down her face. "That's definitely not how I wanted Stefan to find out about me and his brother."

"Oh well, he'll get over it." Megan told her reassuringly. "He loves you like a sister, Charlie, he just wants you to be happy, even if it is with his brother."

Charlene smiled softly. "I know, but still."

Megan nodded in understanding. "I get it, but at least you don't have to worry about telling him anymore." She said.

"True."

Their conversation was interrupted by the sound of the doorbell ringing. Megan went to go answer it. Damon and Stefan were on the other side.

"What are you guys doing here?" Megan questioned as Charlene and Elena slowly made their way over.

"Hey, uh, can we talk?" Stefan asked.

"Um, yeah, what for?"

"We went to see Katherine and Demetria." Damon explained.

The air grew serious, and Megan nodded solemnly. "Okay, yeah, come in." She allowed Damon and Stefan inside and she took a hold Stefan's hand while Charlene went over to Damon.

They all gathered in the kitchen, standing around the island. Damon and Stefan explained everything that happened when they went to see Katherine and Demetria. Elena was the first one to speak once they were finished.

"You don't believe her, do you?" she asked.

Damon, who was beside Charlene with his arm around her, snorted a bit. "No, of course not. We just want the moonstone."

"According to Rose's friend Slater, there's a way to destroy the spell that Klaus wants to break." Stefan explained.

Megan looked surprised. "Really?" When her boyfriend nodded, she glanced over at Charlene, who didn't look surprised by this news. Her friend must have been there when they found this out.

"No spell, no doppelganger sacrifice. Ergo you live." Damon gestured over to Elena.

The brunette frowned. "How do you destroy it?"

"By releasing it from the moonstone."

"That doesn't sound very sound." Megan pointed out. "How do we even know that it will even work? We can't just take someone's word for it."

Charlene nodded in agreement. "She's right."

"Well, we have a crafty witch on our hands." Damon said, and Megan knew exactly who he meant.

She shook her head. "So, you already talked to Bonnie about this, and she agreed to help?" She already knew the answer to that question. Of course her sister did, especially if it would save Elena from having to die.

Stefan nodded. "She did. She agreed to do anything she could to help us."

"You do realize Katherine and Demetria have the moonstone in their possession?" Megan couldn't help but remind them. "There's no way they will give it you without something in return."

"We're gonna get it from them."

"Well, what he means to say is, we will pry it from their cold, dead hands if we have to."

"Bonnie just needs to find out a way to release the seal long enough for us to get in, get the moonstone, and get out in time for her to return it."

Megan crossed her arms over her chest. "You guys have it all figured out, don't you?" There was sarcasm in her voice.

Damon smirked. "Yep. We're awesome." He winked in Charlene's direction, and the blonde just shook her head as she stepped out his grip.

Charlene placed her hands on the counter. "Here's the thing, we don't want you to do it." She glanced over at Megan and Elena, who both nodded in agreement.

Stefan and Damon exchanged startled looks.

"What are you talking about?" Stefan asked, looking back over at the girls. "Charlene, we don't have a choice."

"There's always a choice, and we don't want you to do it. What about Klaus? You know the age old vampire who wants to sacrifice my sister." Charlene nodded towards Elena.

"We'll find him after we get the moonstone." Stefan tried to reassure.

"How do you plan on doing that?" Charlene countered.

"Oh, and is that going to be before or after Klaus comes here and kills everyone we care about, including you and Damon?" Megan argued, giving Stefan a pointed look for giving one to Damon, who looked startled at the fact that she included him into the people she cared about. She couldn't blame him for that, and even though she didn't show it often, she did care about Damon, not only just because he made her best friend happy.

Stefan sighed. "Girls, if we can de-spell the moonstone, we can save Elena's life." He said, trying to make them see reason.

"I know. Everybody keeps saying that." Elena mumbled bitterly to herself as she left the kitchen.

Before they left with her, Megan turned towards Damon and Stefan and said, "We appreciate you wanting to help, but please don't go through with this horrible plan." She grabbed onto Charlene's hand and they left the room together.

After discussing the plan together, Megan headed over to the boarding house with Elena and Charlene in tow. Despite telling Damon and Stefan to give up on the current plan they had, she knew they wouldn't listen and would do it anyway with or without their position. So, she and her friends had to come with a different one. One that neither Damon or Stefan would agree with.

"Are we sure we want to do this?" Elena asked as they stood on the front porch of the boarding house.

"Definitely." Megan responded, and Charlene nodded in agreement.

"It's only way to keep the people we care about from getting hurt." The blonde said, putting her arm around Elena. "We can do this."

Elena took a deep breath and let it out before nodding. "Okay."

Charlene gave her a smile, then she opened the boarding house doors, stepping inside. "Rose?" she called out. "Are you in here?" She didn't have to repeat her question as said vampire came down the stairs, tying a silky robe around herself.

"It's not nice leaving someone to fend for themselves." Rose was saying, but she stopped, seeing it was Charlene, Megan, and Elena, who looked away in embarrassed for the second time today. "Sorry, thought you were someone else."

"It's fine." Charlene said shortly, and Megan looked over at her best friend, surprised to hear her sounding rude.

"There's no one else here." Rose told them awkwardly.

"We know." Megan informed. "We're actually here to talk to you."

Rose looked surprised. "Oh, then I should probably get dressed."

"Yeah, good idea." Megan nodded. She grinned broadly before heading back upstairs. "What was up with that?" Megan asked Charlene.

"Oh, she tried to kiss Damon."

"What?!"

"But it's okay, he didn't let her kiss him." Charlene told her before she could go upstairs and yell at Rose.

Megan breathed in relief. "That's good." They didn't have to wait for long until Rose was dressed and back downstairs.

"It's a bad idea." Rose shook her head as they talked in the parlor room.

"No, it's not." Elena disagreed. "From what Charlene told me, your friend Slater obviously has more information about Klaus. You guys just gave up too easily.

Rose frowned at her. "Because someone blew up a coffee shop with us in it."

"That's beside the point Rose." Charlene told her. "There's more that we could learn from him. That's why we want to go back to Richmond so we can find out."

"Exactly. He might even know of a way to stop Klaus." Megan added. That was a long shot, but you never know.

"Why are you coming to me with this?"

"For one, you owe me one." Charlene reminded her. "If I hadn't told Damon and Stefan to let you go when you kidnapped me and Elena, you would be dead right now and we wouldn't be having this conversation."

"Or maybe it's because you know they wouldn't want doing this." Rose said, "And their moonstone caper gives you a chance to get away."

"That's definitely part of it." Megan could admit that. "We know they just want to help us protect Elena, but they are willing to let everyone we care about die, and that's the last thing we want to happen. So that leaves us right here, asking you to take us to Slater."

Rose sighed, sitting down on the couch. "What exactly do you hope to achieve by doing this?"

"Remember how I offered Slater the chance of getting a daylight ring?" Charlene reminded her. Rose looked at her shocked.

"I definitely would be willing to make one for you." Megan said to Rose, turning the older vampire's attention over to her. "But of course you have to be willing to make a deal." Then she grinned, holding out her hand. "So, what do you say?"

TBC...
