Chosen One (Damon Salvatore) (Discontinued)

17.

Damon Salvatore looked over at Zoey finding her peacefully asleep. Memories of yesterday replaying his mind and he couldn't help but smile.

He has her. He has his wife whom he haven't seen in 22 years, he never got the chance to apologize, to tell her how sorry he was for divorcing her, for making her so heart broken, and now as he stares at her sleeping peacefully he can't believe that all this happened by chance.

Damon guesses he could thanks for Stefan for being born because if it wasn't for him who she came to see in the first place she wouldn't be sleeping in his bed to begin with.

So, with a happy smile on his face he gets up from the bed and carefully open and closes the door and goes to his brothers room and knocks on the door.

Stefan opened it a minute later as he raised his eyebrows in confusion.

"I owe you a thanks," he says scratching the back of his head.

"For what?"

"For Zoey, she's only here because it was your birthday, if it hadn't been for that I would have never gotten my second chance with her,"

"It's not the only reason why she came," he says opening the door wider.

"What do you mean?" Damon asked confused at his brother.

"I called her a few days before my birthday, I asked her to come to try and change your ways but she refused she refused at first to even come see you, to talk to you, but she eventually caved in and did anyways, she did exactly what I told her to do, to keep you in check, so I don't want a thank you because then I'll feel bad about it, she only came because I asked her too not just to see me,"

"You seriously doing this now Stefan? A day after we got together?" Zoey asks walking towards the brothers. "Damon, yes he is right I didn't want to come see you, but I didn't come here just for Stefan and to do what he said to do, I came because it was my time to understand why, why you divorced me after we had such a great relationship, in truths I got my answer and I'm with you again,"

"I understand Zoey you were really upset with me, knowing this doesn't change anything especially about how I feel about you, the only thing that matters is that you came back to me," he says caressing her cheek as she smiled at him.

"I don't regret it, coming back to you. It was my decision and apart of me really wanted to see you again," she says as Damon brought there foreheads together.

"How about a date today Zo? At the Grill?"

"Hey free food is fine for me," she giggled as Damon grins.

"Who said I was paying?" He asks as she laughed.

"Perks of being a vampire,"

"Mhmm babe," he said bringing his lips to hers.

"Okay I think y'all forgot I was right here at the doorway," Stefan says awkwardly as they pulled away.

"Guess we'll be seeing you," Damon said before vamp speeding out the door with Zoey.

"This time try not to compel that nice bartender," Zoey said as the two entered inside the grill as everyone stopped to stare at them. "Why are they staring?"

"Looking at you more than me if I'm being honest, there not used to seeing such a sexy, beautiful lady in front of them," Damon whispers in her ear as they went to sit down.

"Ah, Zoey and Damon how are you two doing?" Matt asked as he was cleaning out a glass.

"Dandy Matty, so I would like bourbon with a side of cheeseburger and fries, what would you like honey?"

"I'll take a scotch with a cheeseburger and fries myself,"

"Coming right up," he says before walking away.

"Ah Damon, and the girl we rescued I'm happy to meet you, I'm Alaric Saltzman," the brown hair man introduced with a smile as he shook her hand.

"Yes you must be that fellow Damon was carrying back home, how are you? I see stitches on your head for that I'm sorry about Elijah's actions,"

"I'm perfectly fine just banged my head when he threw me across the wall, and it's not a problem I'm used to that kind of stuff," He says laughing scratching the back of his head.

Zoey giggled.

"I suppose you are, what kind of vampire hunter are you when you hang out with vampires?"

"I only hunt the bad guys, Damon not one of them.... Well not anymore,"

"That's right I'm a changed man," Damon says while smiling proudly. "I'd do anything to make my wife- I mean girlfriend happy,"

"So y'all tied the knot again?" Alaric asked with a smile just as Matt came back with our food and drinks.

Zoey nodded happily as Damon couldn't help but examine his drink. Something about it was.... Off.

"And I couldnt be more happier that I am, Damon makes my life filled with joy," she says putting the drink to her lips.

"ZO! WAIT!" Damon screams but was too late as Zoey had ingested the plant.

She started violently coughing as the glass breaks on the table. Her throat was burning.

"Zo!"

"Stay back!" Sheriff Forbes yelled holding out a vervain dart.

"Sheriff what are you doing?!" He yells just as she shot the Dart at Zoey as her whole world turned black.
