The book of Ellie (remake)

Twenty-one

"You brought me to a bar?" I ask getting out of the car with Damon. "They're not gonna let me inside Damon."

"Sure they will." Damon says as we walk towards the entrance. We walk inside and my eyes immediately dart to the bartender who's staring Damon and I down.

"No...it can't be!" She exclaims. "Damon!" She hops over the bar and makes her way to him. "My honey pie." She says smiling. Damon pulls her in close and they passionately kiss.

I can feel my cheeks burning and a intense amount of jealousy overcomes me.

When they pull away she gives me a quick smile before hopping back over the bar. She sits four shot glasses out and grabs a drink from behind the counter.

"Listen up everybody! Here's to the man that broke my heart, crushed my soul, destroyed my life, and ruined any chance of happiness for me." She says pouring the drink into each of the shot glasses. What's crazy is that a smile remains on her face after everything she just said.

"Drink up!" She tells Damon. They both down the shots in seconds flat.

"Hey what's her name?" I whisper to Damon.

"Bree." Damon whispers back.

Bree walks back over to us. "So...how did you get roped in?" She asks, talking to me for the first time.

"Huh...me? I'm not roped." I lie.

"Honey, if you're not roped them you're whipped. Either way, enjoy the ride." She tells me smiling.

"Hmm..." I hum. "So how did you two meet?"

"College." She answers pouring more shots.

Damon went to college? Well then again he is pretty old...

"Wait you went to college?" I ask Damon chuckling.

"I have been on a college campus, yes." He replies downing another shot.

"It was twenty years ago when I was a sweet young freshman, when I met this beautiful man and I fell in love. Then he told me his little secret and I fell in love with him even more. You see I had my own little secret I was dying to share with somebody." Bree tells me with a smirk.

Damon leans towards me and whispers, "She's a witch."

"You changed my world." Bree sighs.

"I rocked it." Damon corrects her.

"He's good in the sack ain't he?" She asks me and I respond by widening my eyes. "But he's just a walk away Joe. But anyway...what do you want?"

"Here Ellie. Go call your aunt, tell her you're not dead." Damon says handing me my phone.

I guess that's my cue to leave.

I grab my phone from Damon and head outside. I scroll through my contacts and click on Jenna's name. Of course it only takes her two seconds to answer.

"Ellie where are you?" She demands.

"Hey...sorry. I crashed at Bonnie's last night and I just really wanted to get to school this morning." I lie.

"You could've called." I hear her sigh on the
other line.

"I know...I'm sorry. But I've got to get going. The bells going to ring soon." I tell her quickly.
