Love is eternal - Damon Salvatore love story

Chapter 18: Under Control

I was dizzy when I woke up in the Salvatore guest bed. The last thing I really remembered was Damon grabbing me from the floor after that creepy vampire Ian, fed on me. I look around the room and almost jump out of my skin when I see Damon standing in the doorway with a mug in his hand.

'Gooood morning Ms Gilbert, are you enjoying your stay at Casa De Salvatore?' Damon says cheerfully. I flinch and stretch my arms.

'How did I get here?' I find my voice very scratchy as I try to sit up but Damon rushes over and I feel his hand suddenly appear on my back.

'Be careful, you lost a lot of blood'

'I gathered that part, how did I get here?'

'After we saved you and Stefan, I thought it would be wiser to bring you here so you could enjoy a happily, quiet sleep without your Aunt and brother asking questions

'Asking questions about what?' I ask

'The bite marks' Damon says obviously and I run my hand over the back of my neck to feel the slight outline of bite marks. I then look at my arm and see a similar one.

'I thought they'd be worse'

'I gave you my blood. Here, I made you a cup of tea' Damon hands me the mug he was holding. I look into it and almost gag at the smell.

'Thank you' I say, trying to not make it seem like I hated it but when I take a sip, I couldn't help but spit it out. It was WAY too cold and it was mostly just milk and water. To me it seemed like, Damon just dipped the tea bag in the water for one second and then threw it away.

'Damon, I appreciate it but I don't think I'm ever going to let you make my tea again' I say as politely as I humanly could. Damon gives me a confused look.

'Well, be thankful I actually tried to make something for you' he says and I smile

'Ok...Thank you Damon for making me tea but please please please, either let me show you how to do it properly or let me make it for myself now' I tell him and I see the smile appear on his face.

'Alright. Elena called me and told me to get you to school this morning so I came in to wake you up'

I groan and collapse back in the bed.

'I don't know, this bed is actually quite comfortable, I think I'll be happy to stay here'

'I'm not leaving you with Stefan' Damon says and I raise an eyebrow, sitting back up in the bed.

'Wait....Stefan's not at school?'

'No'

'Why?'

'He's not ready to go back yet' Damon says

'What do you mean not ready? What happened Damon?'

I see Damon physically tense up and I scoot closer to him to get the answer

'If I don't tell you, then you'll have to go to school and ask your sister' Damon says standing up from his spot on the edge of the bed.

'You bastard!' I curse throwing a pillow in Damon's direction as he heads for the door. It hits him and Damon turns around to face me. He picks the pillow up and throws it back to me and it hits me square in the face.

'I'm more powerful than you Gigi. Now go to school. I have to go to a meeting day about Founders Day so I want you gone by the time I come back. I told Elena what clothes to get you and she brought them over' Damon says before shutting the door behind him.

I roll my eyes and open the blanket, ready to get dressed for the day. I head over to the closet and open it to see my favourite t-shirt, jacket and pants.
