Damon was right about this party. It’s not just a college party. People from all walks of life are here dressed in costumes of every kind. I feel calm, content, at ease. I feel at…home.
Damon and I have been dancing like nobody’s business. I like dancing with Damon, he’s a mover. Not like the scum I’ve danced with over the years. He’s the only one who hasn’t tried to grab me, well at all.
It’s not long before we’re met by Stefan and Lexie, both clad in punk gear. Stefan in eyeliner. Lexie with high rag doll pigtails. I love them so much.
Damon leans into Stefan and I hear, “Keep an eye on her for me brother?” he looks over at me.
“Do what you gotta do. She‘s not going anywhere.” Stefan says back watching me and Lexie.
Walking over to me he says, “I have a few things I need to take care of. Stefan and Lexie will stay with you until I get back, okay?” he says holding my hand to his lips before kissing it and walking away.
“Stefan I wanna talk to Kit for a minute please.” Lexie says pulling me into the crowd until we’re on the other side of the room.
When we stop by a refreshment table she says,” You’ve been out with Damon this entire week.”
“I know. It’s his idea of a date apparently.” I say
“So he’s counting all this as one gigantic date?” she asks.
“I guess so.” I say
“Wow! And he hasn’t been acting all Damon on you, has he?” she asks with a look I can’t place.
“What do you mean by that?” What’s she getting at?
“Well, he’s not a nice person.” she says bluntly
“That’s crazy. That just can’t be true. He’s been so sweet to me.” I say , championing Damon.
“Damon sweet? The guy barely knows the meaning of the word.” she says
“Did you just bring me here to talk trash about him?” I ask fuming. Why am I angry about this?
“No, I’m sorry. Damon just gets under my skin is all.” she says, “But, you jumped to his defense fast. What’s going on with you two?” she asks.
“He’s my friend. He’s been helping me.” I say
“Friend? I don’t know about that one.” she smirks
“What’s that supposed to mean?” I ask annoyed.
“It’s only my opinion.” she says
“What are you two talking about over here.?” Stefan asks us.
“Just girl a little girl talk.” Lexie says
“I thought you’d be dancing.” he says
“We plan to. Heels. Stefan.” she says
“I wanna dance some more.” I say feeling the night taking away my worries.
“What are we waiting for?” Lexie says, as we pull Stefan onto the dance floor.
______________________________________________________
As we’re all dancing I feel a someone behind me. Whirling around to face the offender, I see it’s Damon, in a tux. A breathtaking, heart-stopping tux.
“You’ve changed.” I say a little too breathy.
“Now it’s your turn.” he smiles handing over my garment bag and a brilliantly pink cell phone.
“I don’t need a cell phone Damon,” cell phones are trouble in my hands.
“My number’s in it. Call me when you’re done changing and I’ll come find you. Deal?” he smiles.
“Okay. If I don’t call you in ten minutes-”
“I’ll come find you. I promise.” he says as Lexie takes my hand to find the nearest room to change in.
