His name is Damon.

Floor 3

          Stefan pulled up and let Damon get out and go in. We waited several minutes and he came back out flashing the room key cards. "Third floor," he said when he got in. Stefan pulled around and parked the van. I was able to grab all my own stuff in one trip without any help.

          The hotel was really nice inside. There was a lot of gold coloring. The breakfast area looked nice and large. Damon and Stefan had their own room...I was almost disappointed because I was very slightly wishing I could sleep in the same bed as him! But it's probably better if we didn't just yet.

          The girls and I entered our own room and we all flopped on the bed with big relieving sighs and shared a chuckle. Caroline pointed a finger as she explained she would be right back because she needed to go to the boys' room to grab a blood bag out of their cooler.

          After the vampires of the group had their nutritional needs met, we loaded back into the van and headed for the nearest IHOP. They have the best pancakes and that's exactly what I ordered. Two pancakes with chocolate chips and two scrambled eggs and two sausage links. It was really good.

Later that night in the hotel when the girls and I were on the two beds watching a romantic comedy that was on TV, Caroline perked up as she caught words from the room next door. She intently listened as she heard Stefan ask Damon if he's nervous about meeting my family. Damon answered "not really."

          "What is it?" I asked her, noticing how she was so focused.

          "Damon and Stefan are talking about you," she replied.

          "What? What are they saying?" I asked, nervous and excited.

          Caroline didn't answer. Instead, she kept listening. Stefan said to Damon that he thought I liked my necklace pretty well. Damon answered back "yeah, I think so too". Then Stefan proceeded to say that he is glad we could all do this. Damon agreed.

          Caroline filled me in on the conversation. I blushed a little.

          The next morning I awoke and took a shower. Afterwards, I knocked on Damon's door and he answered with a sexy grin. "Yes?" he asked.

          "Would you like to come eat breakfast with me?" I asked.

          He softened his eyes and granted my question. It was a nice little walk for me and him. Walk as in down the hall, on the elevator, and a few more feet to the breakfast area, but it was still nice. We held hands and it made me jittery.
