Damon had thought about what his brother had said but the more that he thought about it, the more he thought that everything they had talked about was impossible. You hated him after all and everything that he had done couldn't be fixed by honesty. You, on the other hand, had noticed the absence of the annoying older vampire but you didn't think much of it. You just figured that he had gotten bored but it made you uneasy so eventually you made your way to the Boarding House.

"Damon!" You yelled as you opened the door and walked in.
"Well hello, there little human, what are you doing here?" He asked.
"Looking for you." You answered, "you don't usually go so long without causing trouble just wondering what you were doing."
"You care about me." He teased as he moved closer. "Did you miss me?"
"Miss you?" You asked. "No, more like wondering what you were getting up to. You know when you're this quiet it usually means you've got a breathing blood bag in your bed."
"Wow, you think so highly of me." He rolled his eyes.
"What are you doing Damon?" You asked.
"Nothing." He answered.
"So where have you been?" You asked.
"What does it matter to you?" He asked, "you don't like me, shouldn't you just be happy that I'm not bothering you?"
"You're trying to distract me." You muttered as you looked around, it didn't seem like anything was out of place but you knew that didn't really mean anything.
"You're being rather annoying today... How about you go away?" He asked.
"Rude." You muttered as you turned away from him "whatever just wanted to make sure that you were okay."

You left after that and decided that you were getting nowhere, you didn't go very far though, you stayed close to see if you could catch him leaving the house, you were so involved that you didn't hear the person coming up behind you. "What are you doing?" Stefan asked as he leaned down behind you so that his mouth was near your ear.
"Jesus!" You yelled in surprise as you jumped and turned to look at him.
"If that's how you feel about me I won't tell you you're wrong." Stefan teased as you tried to get your heart to settle in your chest. "What are you doing?"
"Your brother is being weird..." You answered as you turned back to the house.
"Right... So you're spying on him?" He asked.
"I tried asking him what was wrong, he didn't want to tell me." You explained.
"Why do you care?" Stefan asked.
"I just... He's usually hurting someone when he's this quiet but it doesn't look like anything is going on." You said with a shrug as you squinted trying to look in the window.
"He's not doing anything here... I've been here, he just spends all day drinking..." Stefan answered.
"That's not weird to you?" You asked.
"No... Not after the conversation we had." Stefan answered.
"What conversation?" You asked.
"Doesn't matter," Stefan said as he started to walk away from you, you followed after him.
"It does matter, it matters a lot, so how about you tell me what you're talking about." You suggested as he opened the door.
"The only person that can tell you about that is Damon so stop asking me." He said as he pointed to the man sitting on the sofa, Damon turned to both of you as you walked in and rolled his eyes.
"Why are you still here?" Damon asked.
"Because you are acting weird." Your answered hands flung up in the air, Stefan had walked away from you again but you didn't care as you walked towards Damon. "There is something going on with you!"
"There is nothing going on with me, maybe I just got bored of you." Damon glared as you nodded.
"You know the fact that you are trying to push me away is reason enough for me to think that it all has something to do with me... So what is it?" You asked.
"See this is why you are so interesting... You're human but you are not afraid of me at all." He said, "Stefan said that I should tell you the truth, the truth is you're interesting and I wanted to apologize for everything that happened before."
"That was it?" You asked.
"That was it." Damon nodded.
"All of this and all you wanted to say was sorry... Stefan was right, you are troubled." You rolled your eyes. "Next time just say sorry, don't make me worry about you."
"You worry about me?" Damon asked.
"Of course I do, when you're not being a jerk you're not that bad to be around." You answered.
"You're so confused..." Damon admitted.
"Yeah yeah, whatever... Look now I know that you're okay I've got to meet the girls." You answered as you turned away.
"You're a strange human," Damon said with a small smile on her face.
"People have told me that before." You called back as you left the house.
