Chapter 12

I began to open my eyes slowly and noticed Damon stating at me.

"Good morning gorgeous." He said smiling at me.

"Good morning."

I started to play with Damon's fingers with my own.

"Did you sleep well?"

"Mhmmm. How about you?"

"I slept extremely well, thank you." He said before he kissed the top of my head.

"Huh, I should get up….get ready so I can go and talk to Stefan."

"I am going to make you breakfast first."

I sat up and smiled at him. "So does this mean you're my boyfriend now?"

"No. Not until after…"

"Right."

"You get dressed, I will go start breakfast."

I got up and walked over to my dresser and Damon put on his pants and shirt and walked downstairs. I grabbed a pair of dark wash jeans and a green top. I got dressed and noticed Damon's jacket draped over the chair in the corner. I grabbed it and put it on before heading down to the kitchen.

"Smells great." I said walking into the kitchen.

"I see you stole my jacket."

"I look cute in it."

"Never said you didn't, I actually like it….you wearing my jacket." He said slightly looking up from cooking and raising one eyebrow.

"Good, because I like It too." Damon poured me some orange juice and set it down in front of me. "So what is for breakfast?"

"Well, you guys didn't have much so I am just making eggs and bacon."

"Sounds delicious."

Damon brought me my plate and sat down beside me. I finished eating qickly.

"Wow, delicious again Damon. Thank you!"

"Anytime sweatheart."

"Well I am going to head over and talk o Stefan."

"OK. Can you give me a ride? He asked smirking.

I laughed and said "Yea, come on lets go."

I pulled into the driveway and got out of the car.

"Well, here goes nothing." I said walking up he porch steps.

"It will be fine." Damon promised. "He is in his room." He said as we walked through the door.

I walked up the stairs and turned towards Stefan's room. I knocked and waited for him to answer.

"Come in." He called.

"Hey Stefan."

"Elena, hi. I was going to call you later, you didn't go to school again today?"

"Stefan I need to talk to you."

"Yea, so do I, Damon took care of the vampire last night."

"I know, he told me. Look Stefan I really need to speak with you can we sit?"

We both went to sit at the small table near his window.

"What is wrong Elena?

'"Stefan this is beyond hard for me so I need you to promise to let me get it all out before you say anything." Stefan nodded and I continued. "Stefan I can't see you anymore." His face fell and I could no longer look him directly in his eyes. "I am in love with Damon.

"Your what?"

"I love him Stefan. I can't explain it or tell you why but I do and I can't just deny those feelings."

"Elena, he is a monster!"

"He is not a monster!" I yelled standing up. "He protected me when you couldn't be bothered to come home, he made me feel safe when there was some crazy vampire after me, I love him and I want to be with him….that is final.

"Elena he is dangerous."

"He would never hurt me Stefan. You will not talk me out of this, I am sorry, I have made my decision."

Stefan said nothing. After a few minutes he walked out of his room.

"Stefan where are you going?" I asked following him.

"Go home Elena." He yelled back at me as he made his way to Damon's room.

"Stefan!"

Stefan flung open Damon's door and walked over to him. Damon was sitting in a chair looking out the window, no doubt listening to our entire discussion. Stefan threw Damon out of the chair and then walked to the other side of the room where he was and punched him a few times in the face. Stefan stormed out of the room and a few seconds later I heard the front door slam shut.

I ran over to Damon and knelt to the ground. "Are you OK?" I asked bringing my hand to his face and running my fingers through his hair.

"Yea, I am OK." He said getting up slowly. He pulled me in for a hug. "I would like to take you out tonight."

"What? Like a date?"

"Yes."

"OK. What time should I be ready?"

"Six o'clock."

"OK I will be ready." I leaned up and gave him a passionate kiss. "I will see you later."

I walked down the stairs and out to my car and drove home.


It was 5:45. Damon would be over in fifteen minutes to pick me up. I was just about ready I just had to put my makeup on. After I was done I went downstairs to wait. I was a little nervous, I wasn't sure why. I heard a knock at the door so I got up from the couch.

"Who is it?" I asked remembering what Damon had said to me about people out there that were dangerous who didn't need to be invited inside.

"It is your handsome date." He replied. I opened the door and smiled as soon as I saw those beautiful blue eyes staring at me. "Are you ready to go?"

"Yup all set." I said walking out the door and closing it. "So where are we going?"

"It is a surprise." He said opening the passenger door for me.

We drove for a while. I wasn't even sure where we were anymore. Damon pulled the car into a small clearing surrounded by trees. He turned off the car and got out. He was at my door opening it for me before I knew it.

"What is this place?"

"Elena, do you not get what a surprise is?"

I laughed and said "Sorry."

We walked for a little while until we came to a large blanket and a basket. Damon sat down and reached up for my hand.

"Join me?"

I took his hand and sat down next to him. When I sat down he handed me a bouquet of a dozen of black magic roses tied with a purple ribbon.

"Oh my god, Damon. They are beautiful, thank you. How in the world did you find twelve black roses?"

"I have my ways." He said lifting one eyebrow. "Are you hungry? There is some sandwiches and chicken salad." He said pointing over to the basket.

"Damon this is perfect." I said looking into his eyes. I leaned in and grabbed his lips with mine.

Damon brought his hand to my cheek and slowly layed back bringing me back with him. Damon broke the kiss after a few minutes still cupping my head with his hand.

"Why don't you have something to eat." He said as he slowly sat us up.

"OK. Yea, I am actually starving." He handed me a sandwich and a small bowl with some chicken salad.

"What do you want to drink? There is water and soda."

"I will have a water."

He handed me the bottle and layed on his side to watch me eat. I finished my sandwich and ate about three quarters of the chicken salad.

"Mmmm. That was great. Thank you." I layed down on my back and looked up at the star filled sky. "You know…this is very romantic." I said turning my head towards him.

"Shhhh, you will ruin my reputation." He said as he leaned in close to my face.

He leaned closer to grab my lips with his. He moved on top of me and started kissing my neck.

"Damon?"

"Mmmhmmm." He said between kisses.

"Can you….?" I said moving my head so my neck was more exposed.

"You want…me…to bite… you?" he said again in between kissing my neck.

"Mmmhmmm." I said as I ran my fingers through his hair.

He didn't argue this time or try to talk me out of it. He knew that I enjoyed it as much as he did, although I was sure he would always wait for me to ask; he would probably never ask me if he could bite me. He moved off me slightly so I could sit up and take my shirt off so I wouldn't get blood on it. We both layed back down and he gently brushed my hair out of the way. He kissed my neck like he always does before he bites and sunk his teeth in. He didn't take much blood this time, probably since the past few days he has taken a lot. It felt amazing though. I loved how connected I felt to him every time he did it. I felt him lick the excess blood from my neck and then leaned up to my ear and whispered "I love you."

"I love you too." I said. He moved his head so it was right in front of me and looked me in the eyes. He ran his fingers through my hair and I closed my eyes and let a little moan escape my mouth "Damon?"

"Yes?"

"I have an odd request." I said biting my lip.

"Anything."

"Can I have…a taste?"

"A taste? Wait you want to…"

I nodded my head yes and rubbed his arms with my hands. He rolled off of me and sat up. He took off his leather jacket so all he had on was his white cotton t-shirt.

"Come here." He said.

I got up and leaned my back against him; I rested my head on his chest. He bit into his wrist and then put it in front of my mouth. I put my lips to his wrist and drank in a small amount of his blood. He rubbed my bare stomach with his other hand and a few seconds later he moved his wrist from my mouth. I had drank a small amount of his blood before when he found out I betrayed him and went after the book with Stefan without him. But it was different this time, it was more sensual. He got up and gently placed my head back onto the blanket. As soon as my head was on the blanket he was back over me looking deep into my eyes. He leaned down to kiss me and I moved my hands under his shirt and rubbed his chest and stomach.

After a few seconds I lifted his shirt up and we broke the kiss for a half second so I could lift it over his head. I moved down to his pants; I unbuttoned them and then pulled the zipper down. He smiled into the kiss and quickly got up and took his pants off so he was left in only his boxer briefs. He came back to laying down beside me and started rubbing my stomach with his fingertips again. He kissed my bellybutton and then unbuttoned and unzipped my jeans. He gently wiggled my pants off my hips and slid them easily down my legs. He kissed me all the way up my legs, kissed the inside of my thigh. I moaned a little and he smirked and continued kissing up my body not missing an inch. He reached behind me and un clasped my bra and tossed it to the other side of the blanket with the rest of our clothes. He worked his way back down my body and pulled off my panties. He quickly removed his boxer briefs and came back on top of me. He placed a gentle kiss on my lips, he lined himself up and very slowly entered me.

I immediately felt our connection grow. I didn't think it would be possible to feel more connected to this man but I was wrong. Our bodies just molded together as he continued to move inside of me. We both reached our climax at the same time and he lowered his head down to my ear and whispered. "Wow." I giggled and echoed his words. He slowly rolled off of me and grabbed an extra blanket that was under the basket and covered us with it. I cuddled next to Damon and he wrapped his arm around me and pulled me even closer. We both stared at the star filled sky above. It was the perfect night.
