ANTHER LOVE // E.GILBET 1.

3. Friends to have dinner witch.

WHEN HOLDEN LEFT THE SHOWER and walked back into his room, he saw Damon lying in his bed, hands behind his head. He wore a smug smirk. "What do you want?" Daniel asked dully.

He walked over to his drawer and took out clothes for the day as Damon watched with narrowed eyes. "I just wanted to chat with my baby brother," Damon said in good mood. Daniel let out an annoyed breath. "Also, I found this..."

Daniel looked at him to see Damon holding the picture of the blonde woman. "Melanie was definitely hot," Damon smirked causing Daniel to rush over to Damon with vampire speed. He wanted to take away the only remaining picture of her he had.

Damon also got out from bed and swooshed over to the other side. Daniel glared at him. "Easy, buddy," Damon smirked darkly. "Don't get too angry. I'm just reminiscing the past."

"Give it back to me," Daniel hissed and Damon chuckled.

"You know what's funny to me, Daniel?" Damon asked with a hint of anger. "Is that you are the one to scold us for loving a woman, who died years ago, only to love one yourself!"

"It's different!" Daniel shouted walking closer to Damon. And that's what the older brother wanted. To infuriate Daniel.

Damon knew that Daniel was good when it came to self control. He had seen him cure people, who were soaked in blood and not even flinch at the sight. And he wanted his brother to truly kill.

Daniel drank from people, that was the truth. But he was being gentle about it. He always cured them and erased their memory afterwards. Damon was far different from Holden. "Damon," Stefan called from the doorway with a serious face and both brothers turned his way. "Give him back the photo."

"Fine, jeez," Damon rolled his eyes then placed the photo on the desk and patted Daniel's shoulder. "Don't pout. I'm just teasing."

As he was leaving the room, Stefan followed him with his look. He then turned back to Daniel, who was glancing down at the photo with a frown.

His face then hardened as he looked at Stefan. "If you want something, say now or go away. I don't have time."

"Actually, I do want something," Stefan nodded his head then left the room, and Daniel got the chance to dress up.

After that, Daniel walked into the parlor and saw Stefan sitting on a couch, a thoughtful look on his face. "I need a drink," Holden commented and poured himself a shot of bourbon.

"Elena invited me to have dinner with her and Bonnie," he stated and Daniel let out a laugh. "What?"

"She's not messing around, Stefan. She already wants you to meet her friends," Daniel commented and took a sip of his drink before sitting down on the sofa in front of Stefan.

"That accurate, huh?" Stefan questioned with a small smile. Daniel saw the happiness in his eyes as he spoke of Elena.

"Is that all you have to say?" Daniel questioned in boredom and Stefan quickly shook his head.

"Elena also invited you," he said and Daniel narrowed his eyes in confusion. He had no idea why Elena was also inviting him to the dinner.

"Me?" Daniel asked with raised eyebrows. "Since when I'm in Elena Gilbert's 'friends to have dinner with' list?"

Stefan shrugged his shoulders. "I have no idea, but she thought you were nice and she wants to know you," he said. It was weird to Stefan at how Elena wanted to meet Daniel. That's practically all she was talking about until Stefan agreed to ask him.
