A/N: One shot story! I got the idea while I was cleaning earlier today but under different pretenses. I hope everyone likes it. I'm sorry in advances if any of the characters seem OOC (I did my best to keep them in character) and for any lemons. That's enough talking for now on to the story!
Cleaning
Chapter: 1
After running off to Georgia and breaking all her ties with everyone back home in Mystic Falls Elena was grounded for two weeks. Jenna was furious with her when she returned, she has been giving Elena a list of things to do before she got home from work, if she didn't get it done she would add another day to her sentence. If that wasn't bad enough she also wasn't allowed out of the house only to go to school. Today was the last day of her punishment.
Elena woke up and stretched her arms above her head, a small smile crossed her face. Today was the last day she had to be stuck in the house; all she had to do is find out what Jenna had in store. Elena got out of bed and walked to her dresser and put on a pair of sweat pants and a pink tank top. She walked to the bathroom and ran a brush through her hair and put it up in a messy bun.
After her morning rituals where finished Elena walked down the stairs and to the kitchen. She saw a note on the refrigerator from Jenna,
Elena, I want the house clean
by the time I get home at five.
When you're done you can go out with your friends.
Love Jenna.
Elena let out a loud sigh and took the note off the fridge and threw it away. She looked at the clock as she fixed herself a cup of coffee, the clock read nine o'clock, she still had time to clean and still probably see Stefan. She hadn't seen him since she gotten back from Georgia. Even if he was the reason she ran away in the first place she still loved him.
Elena finished her coffee and put the cup in the dishwasher along with a few dishes that was in the sink and started it. With a depressed sigh Elena looked under the sink and grabbed the furniture polish and Windex. She put the cleaners down on the couch along with a roll of paper towels and a cloth rag. Elena walked to the hall closet to gather the vacuum cleaner and duster and brought it back the living room.
Elena walked over to the radio and turned it on to a relatively good station that plays a lot of classic songs and a few popular songs from today. She grabbed the duster from the couch an dusted everything in the living room with enthusiasm due to a great classic that blasted through the speakers, Hungry like the wolf by Duran Duran.
Burning the ground, I break from the crowdI'm on the hunt, I'm after youI smell like I sound, I'm lost and I'm foundAnd I'm hungry like the wolfStrut on a line, it's discord and rhymeI'm on the hunt, I'm after youMouth is alive with juices like wineAnd I'm hungry like the wolf
The song widened down as Elena finished dusting the living room and moved on to polishing the coffee table and the two tables that were beside the couch.
"Hello Elena." An all too familiar velvet voice called from behind her.
Elena turned to face a smirking Damon dressed in his usual all black attire. "What are you doing here Damon?" Elena asked slightly annoyed because she wanted to get done and he wasn't going to help that.
"Came to visit my favorite little human."
"Sorry Damon today is the last day of my punishment and I really need to get done cleaning the house."
"Where do we begin princess?"
She ignored the fact the he called her princess and answered him, "I have to vacuum, clean the kitchen, and polish the tables." She gestures to the tables in the living room that needed to be polished. Damon nodded and took the vacuum.
Elena sprayed some of the furniture polish on the first table and began to wipe it. Damon began to vacuum as another song came on the radio, Relax by Frankie goes to Hollywood.
But shoot it in the right directionMake making it your intention-ooh yeahLive those dreamsScheme those schemesGot to hit meHit meHit me with those laser beams
Elena glanced over at Damon who was still vacuuming, his muscles rippling under his shirt as he pulled the vacuum. She couldn't move her eyes even if she knew it was wrong, there was something so intoxicating about the way he moved.
Damon felt Elena's gaze on him. "Hasn't anyone told you it was rude to stare?" Damon turned the vacuum off and wound the cord up.
"I-I better go clean the kitchen." Elena blushed a bright pink as she walked out of the living room.
Once she got to the kitchen she clutched her vervain necklace, it was still there, all those thoughts and feelings she had about Damon had been hers and hers alone. Alright I have to get done, those were just silly thoughts, and they didn't mean anything. Elena told herself as she opened the dishwasher to put the dishes she washed earlier away.
Elena bent down over the dishwasher to gather the plates. Damon bent down over her and whispered in her ear, "need help." Elena let out a small involuntary gasp. He grabbed a few plates a stood up brushing Elena's arm with his as he did.
Elena stood up feeling her heart pound inside of her chest due to Damon's close proximity and touch. She put the rest of the dishes away and went to grab the Clorox spray bottle to clean the counter tops.
When she turned around Damon was closer than before, her breath caught in her thought. "I can hear your heartbeat Elena." He said as a quieter song than the first two played in the back ground.
Well, I know there's a reasonAnd I know there's a rhymeWe were meant to be togetherAnd that's whyWe can roll with the punchesWe can stroll hand in handAnd when I say it's foreverYou understand
"Damon stop I need to clean." She tried to yell but it only came out as a whisper. Did she say clean? She meant to say Stefan, boyfriend who she loved. Right?
"Do you want me to stop?" He whispered seductively in her ear.
That you're always in my heartYou're always on my mindBut when it all becomes too muchYou're never far behindAnd there's no oneThat comes close to youCould ever take your place'Cause only you can love me this way
"Y-yes." She lied, the truth was she didn't want him to stop, she wanted him to kiss.
"Liar." Elena looked up at him which was probably the worst thing she could have done or maybe the best. When she looked into his blue eyes she felt something she couldn't describe, a sort of passion maybe.
I could have turned a different cornerI could have gone another placeThen I'd of never had this feelingThat I feel today, yeahAnd you're always in my heartAlways on my mindWhen it all becomes too muchYou're never far behind
Damon leaned towards her, she couldn't move or speak. She knew what she wanted and she knew what was right. Stefan part of her mind screamed, Kiss him the part of her mind that seemed to be in control right screamed. In a split second everything was quite when Damon's lips meant hers. There lips molded together, Elena ran her hands threw Damon's slick black hair to deepen the kiss farther. Damon wound his arm around her waist and pulled her as close to him as possible, there bodies molding together like puzzle pieces.
Elena pulled away out of breath as Damon continued kissing down her jaw and neck. Elena moaned in pleasure. As she tilted her head back to give Damon more access she caught sight of the clock and reality stroke her. "Damon, we have to stop, Jenna will be home in twenty minutes and the kitchen is still a mess."
"What ever you say princess." Damon kissed her lips one last time before departing.
Elena franticly cleaned the kitchen and finished just as Jenna walked in the door. "The house looks nice; you can go and have a good time."
"Thank you Jenna." Elena said going upstairs to change.
Cleaning wasn't all that bad Elena thought to herself as she pulled on a pair of jeans and a ruby top.
And there's no oneThat comes close to youCould ever take your place'Cause only you can love me this wayOohAnd you're always in my heartYou're always on my mindAnd when it all becomes too muchYou're never far behindAnd there's no oneThat comes close to youCould ever take your place'Cause only you can love me this wayOohOnly you can love me this way
A/N: Please Review!
Hope it wasn't to long.
Don't we all wish Damon would help us clean? (LOL)
For anyone who is wondering the third song is only you can love me this way by Keith Urban.
I'm still working on History Today I just have a little writers block and while cleaning I got the idea for this crazy one shot.
