26. No More Tears Baby Bro

Damon's POV
I looked in the mirror and the wolf bite slowly healed, there was a knocked on the door,
"Come in" I shout as I do my shirt buttons up, in the reflection in the mirror I could see Stefan come in with red sore eyes, I turn around and sigh,
"No more tears Stefan" I say wiping his tears away, he looked at the ground as more tears trickled down his red flushed cheeks,
"I'm here, I'm not going to die, I'm cured" I whispered as I pulled Stefan into a tight hug,
"I know but I thought I was going to loose my big brother, I'm not ready for that, I never will be, I know I've lost you before but I knew you were still alive, but I couldn't handle it if you died, your the only family I have left" Stefan sobbs into my shoulder, I just stroked his hair, soothing him, as a big brother would do, Stefan and I haven't hugged since Katherine died, things went wrong, for some reason I started hating him because Katherine "was supposed to turn just me" but she played around with the both of us, making us think that she loves us but mainly me because she claims to be in love with Stefan, Katherine contradicted herself, how? By saying to me that she never loved me, then when I was dying and Lucy was by my side, she said to her "it's okay to love them both I did" like what the hell, but who cares about Katherine right, I know I don't,
"Wow you two are hugging for the first time ever" I hear Caroline's voice from behind me, I pull away from Stefan who stopped crying and I turned to face Caroline,
"He's my little brother aren't I allowed to hug him" I say,
"Of course, it's just I never seen you two hug, you two are always fighting and competing against each other, the only time when you two don't fight is when we are stuck in an situation or we are trying to kill someone" Caroline explains,
"Yeah yeah whatever" I saying, motioning my hand in a yapping sign,
"Hey I'm not that chatty" she says offended,
"You really are" I say as I walk out the door, leaving Caroline and Stefan on there own, I go into the lounge, Lucy sat there, her neck healed, her eyes red,
"Sorry about that" I say walking past her, making it sound so sarcastic, I don't actually mean it, she deserved it, Elena stood near the fire with a bandage around her wrist, holding a glass of bourbon,
"You drink bourbon?" I ask in surprise,
"Yeah I drink any kind of spirits or liqueurs, I tend to like the strong stuff" she smiles at me,
"I've been thinking about what you asked and yes I would like to come and live with you" she gives me a small kiss,
"That's great, you don't have to move in as soon as possible" I say putting my arm around her,
"We haven't found a strong enough witch to take my place yet" she leans her head my chest, she made me feel so wanted, so loved, it's crazy, I've never felt like this for a long time.
