FRIENDS

💫 💫 💫 💫 💫

After Damon walked Angel home, the pair became fast friends. Soon enough the girl found out about the supernatural activity in Mystic Falls. The vampire and the werewolf were often found together or texting each other pretty much all the time. And Angel couldn't deny she was attracted to the vampire, but all those hopes and dreams came crashing down when she found she was just Damon's replacement until Elena finally paid attention to him. It wasn't long, since she and Stefan were on and off all the time. At that time, Angel got close to Klaus. The hybrid and the white wolf became close friends. Now, Angel was seen more with Klaus. The hybrid would go to her when he needed someone to talk to. Angel had become Klaus's person. It was odd to see someone as sweet and kind as Angel with a demon-wolf like Klaus. Those were Damon's words.

Damon had become more aggressive towards anyone who would even think to approach him, he was drinking more, and almost getting caught by people drinking from humans. Stefan, who had "turn off" his emotions was the one covering Damon's tracks. He nor any of his friends could figure out why he was acting out. Angel and Klaus weren't dating but they were hooking up. She didn't mind, Klaus might've been murderous with everyone but not with Angel. He liked how she didn't see him as a "monster" like everyone else. When he had done something bad or that he considered bad he would explain his reasons to the blonde girl, and she would sit there, listening to every single word. The hybrid felt appreciated. Especially when she would make him dinner, breakfast, or lunch. She would bake him pie, cake, or things like that. Rebekah, she loved the girl. She had a friend. A real friend. Someone she knew would never stab her in the back. Elijah and Angel had their own little book club that included only the two of them. Kol and Angel would be movie buddies or even cooking buddies, no one would expect Kol to like being in the kitchen. Well, no so much on cooking but more on the aspect of, if Angel was cooking he was there to get the first cookie, cupcake, brownie, and piece of cake.

The original family practically lived in her house. They were in and out as if they lived there. Angel had to admit that it hurt her feelings when Damon stopped being her friend. She was there for him when he would rant about Elena not noticing him, how his friends would always treat him as the bad guy, it was true that at some point he did things that he was not proud of but he had changed. Angel had been there for it all. Even when Elena ran back into Stefan's arms. Angel tried to love him, but he refused her love. Damon had an idea that Angel felt something for him. But, he had never been the first choice, so he felt like once she'd meet Stefan she would swoon as soon as she met him. But, when she met Stefan let's just say she wasn't his biggest fan.

FLASHBACK

Angel and Damon were sitting in the living room of the Salvatore Boarding House. The vampire and the she-wolf were having a nice conversation. When Stefan walks right in. "Damon!" they both heard. Damon instantly rolled his eyes, while Angel sat there, confused. "Damon! Where-" Stefan stopped mid-sentence as he saw the blonde girl in the living room. Stefan let out a groan that indicated he was annoyed. "Damon, how many times am I gonna say this?" his little brother asked. "Stop compelling people," the green-eyed vampire said to Damon. Angel looked amused at the situation. "First of all, I'm not being "compelled". And second of all, it's a bit rude to accuse someone without having any evidence of the crime" she stated with an attitude. She didn't like the way Stefan accused her friend. Stefan was shocked that someone else was defending his brother. Stefan, Elena, and Alaric were the only ones who did that. Damon smirked. Angel had come to his rescue. She rolled her eyes at the youngest Salvatore before standing up. She walked over to Damon and kissed his cheek. "I'm gonna go. I'll see you later, Damon" the vampire nodded and the blonde girl made her way out.

FLASHBACK OVER

Ever since that small encounter, Angel had disliked the youngest Salvatore. Angel was currently at the park. Why you may ask? Klaus wanted to paint her in "nature". Angel had laughed when he had first told her but he asked her nicely over dinner. And, well, the she-wolf could never say no to Klaus. So, for what felt like hours, Angel sat by the flowers and smile. "You owe me for this," she said through gritted teeth. Klaus simply smiled and nodded at everything she said. Angel was sure he wasn't even listening to what she was saying. Klaus told himself that what he felt for her was purely platonic. That there were just close friends, that often hooked up but no romantic love. Because he did care of her, but as a "friend". Then, Rebekah, Elijah, and Kol would laugh because they would see how jealous and possessive the hybrid could get when it came to her. He would never tell her that, that he loved her. That he wished that she would be his forever, that he wanted to be the one that would always make her smile.

But he couldn't. Angel was human or so he thought. Yet, she knew about the supernatural and what her closest friend and other people were. But, neither of them knew what she was. She wasn't ready to tell them, but one day she would. Stefan had set a meeting with Klaus, Elijah, Rebekah, and Kol. (Stefan only took Esther and Finn's coffins). As the two vampires walked into the Mikaelson home, they saw many of Klaus's paintings on the way in. The dinner went on until it was time for the conditions and all. Damon had left to fetch the coffins and when he return he saw a portrait he never thought he would see at the Mikaelson home. Angel.

There were at least five portraits.

Damon forgot all about Elena and the deal he had come to make to keep her safe. "Why do you have portraits of Angel all over this room?" Damon asked with a serious and jealous tone. The Mikaelson's and Stefan gave the raven-haired vampire a look. "Because she's art" Kol replied with a grin but the original family nodded.

"She's our best friend. She's practically family. We're either here or we're at her house. And she's kind of together with Klaus. Soon, probably even married!" Rebekah said the last part happily. I mean, possibly. They all saw the hurt look on Damon's face. He thought they had something, but he also knew he was the one who stopped talking to her, ignoring her calls, texts, hell, even the visits she would take to his house. All for Elena, because she needed his attention. It was Elena this, Elena that. Even when Elena often complained that he needed to change to be seen as the good guy. While Angel, she told him to be himself. He could've had a lover now all he had was a friend. Or was he even her friend, after all, he did to her? Damon Salvatore didn't want to be Angel's friend. He wanted to be more than friends.
