The Youngest Gilbert (New Rewrite)

Getting Settled

Y/n walks into her room looking around at the surroundings she hasn't seen in days. Only seeing the same white walls and harsh bright lighting can really take a toll but now that she's home that feeling is gone.

She unpacks her bag and feels like someone is watching her. She sighs looking at the window  with an  annoyed glare.

"I know you're there"

Damon appears by her window with his usual smirk.

"What do you want?" she asks rolling her eyes.

"Open the window" he points at the lock.

"That's not going to happen" she shakes her head glaring at him.

"Come on we've done this a hundred times" he sighs.

"Yeah well you didn't try to kill me before" she shrugs and turns back around ignoring him.

In a flash he's lying on her bed flipping through one of her books with a smirk on his lips.

"I was just trying to be nice" he shrugs.

"Were you trying to be nice when you put me in the hospital?" she sarcastically asks rolling her eyes.

"Sweetheart I'm sorry" he puts the book down moving towards her.

"Damon I don't want to hear it" she shakes her head backing away.

"I screwed up I know but I want to fix everything" he assures her grabbing her hands into his.

"You had a chance" she shakes her head taking her hands away.

"Come on Sweetheart I know I screwed up but please just give me another chance, I promise to never screw up again" he pleads watching her every movement.

"You promised to never hurt me and you almost killed me Damon, and the worst part is I should be angrier at you..I should be screaming at you but instead all I was concerned about was how you were doing" she sighs looking away wiping away her loose tears.

"Sweetheart.." he steps closer speaking softly.

"My first thought when I woke up in the hospital was I hope Damon is okay and he's getting better" she rolls her eyes with a scoff.

Damon steps closer until he's directly in front of her and instead of saying anything he pulls her into his arms holding her as she lets out the built up tears that have been bottled up for weeks.

"I still love you" she hiccups into his chest.

Damon kisses her head and pulls her closer swaying them slowly.

She looks up after the tears stop and wipe them away before leaning up and pressing her lips to his pulling him closer.

Damon deepens the kiss pulling her impossibly closer savouring the moment not knowing if it will ever happen again if she finally sees him for what he is.

—————————————————————————

Y/n wakes up the next morning turning over smiling when she sees Damon sleeping beside her with a peaceful expression. The only time he looks completely at peace is when he's asleep or with her.

Memories of last night plays on a loop in her head. The way his skin felt on hers, his whispers in her ear. Everything felt right but she knows that if any one of her friends found out they'd freak out.

She moves closer laying her head on his bare chest while tracing imaginary hearts on his chest and leaning down to kiss his shoulder.

"Good morning beautiful" Damon's morning voice speaks kissing her head.

"Morning Handsome" she says back looking up pressing a gentle kiss to his lips.

"I missed you" he sighs contently smiling down at her.

"I missed you too" she smiles at him playing with a piece of his hair.

In a flash she's underneath him as he leans over her smiling down at her with a playful smirk.

"Damon! You scared me!" she slaps his chest lightly with a smile.

"I love you" he looks down at her with a serious expression mixed with adoration.

"And I love you" she smiles up at him warmly and grabs the back of his neck pulling him down to kiss her.

Ya'll their back! But in secret for now or else Jeremy would stake Damon for sure. And I know she shouldn't have forgave him so quickly but more emotions will come out in the next chapters.
