Dark And Dangerous Love (A Vampire Diaries Love Story)

Chapter 7

Matts POV:

I was working at the grill as usual, since Vicky died and my mum had left, everything changed. I spotted Jeremy and Tyler talking together. At least they were getting along. Tyler looked depressed, why wouldn’t he be?

The girl that he loved, died for no apparent reason, and let’s not forgets that she was one of my best friends.

"I will have a bourbon please." some girly voice snapped my out of my thoughts. I looked up to see Rebekah sitting down on a stool a smile on her face.

I nodded as I went to get her drink. I put the glass in front of her. I was about to walk away, when she started to make a conversation with me. "How are you?" She asked, "Been better." I said.

"If you want anything, or any help at all, I'm here for you Matt." she said to me in a sweet voice.

I looked at her after everything that had happened she acts as if nothing happened. I felt anger start to build in me but I had to stay calm."I’m fine" I told her harshly. She looked upset and I felt guilty, but why? Why would I feel guilty? I didn’t do anything wrong, and I also don’t like her.

"I know that you don’t like me Matt, but I’m trying to be the good guy. Isn’t that what you told me? To be the good person?"

"You might try to be the good guy, Rebekah, but whatever you do its not gonna change anything. You have done a lot of bad things. Being sweet and trying to be a good friend for a couple of weeks isn’t going to do anything. I have to see you change to be your friend, or more than that." She looked at me and she nodded.

"Your right, and when you see that I’m the good person and that I actually care then tell me. But you should know that I like you Matt and that I care for you and if you ever need anything, just tell me.”

I looked at her and find myself believing her. "Thank you Rebekah, for saying the truth. I hope that you can actually change." She nodded her head as she stood up, placing a 5 dollar bill on the bar.

"See you around." She said as she turned on her heel and walked out of the grill.

I stood there thinking about what I had said. Was I being too harsh? Maybe I should go to her house and apologise for being so mean to her.

‘What the hell!’ I thought to myself. I know that I’m a kind person and that I’m not harsh towards people, but why would I want to apologise to her after everything she did?

I looked down at the bar as Rebekah’s image popped in my head. Her long golden hair and her big green eyes and- wait! ‘When the hell did I start to think about Rebekah?’ I thought to myself. I shook my head to clear my head as I continued to clean.

Damon’s POV:

I tried to open my eyes but I couldn’t, so I closed them back again for a couple of seconds. The last thing I remember was Klaus telling Stefan to turn it off, before he snapped my neck.

I opened my eyes again to see that I was still on the floor. I groaned as I stood up hearing the familiar crack of my bones. I looked around the room and saw Elena on the floor with her hand on her neck as she was passed out.

I quickly walked over to her and heard her heartbeat fading. Once I had reached her and put her head in my lap, I bit into my wrist. As to marks appeared and blood started to come out, I put my wrist to Elena’s pink lips as she started to drink. Seeing that the colour was returning to her face, and that her heartbeat was beating normally, I pulled away my hand.

I picked her up and walked up the stairs. I walked into my room and put her in my bed. Then walking over to the bathroom, I grabbed a cloth and washed it with water.

I brought it back to Elena and started to clean the blood off her. Once some of the blood was off her, I walked down the stairs and poured myself a large glass of bourbon.

I pulled out my phone and dialled Stefan’s number. After a couple of rings, it went to voicemail. I signed at the fact that Stefan had left with Klaus, turning his emotions off.

I poured myself another glass of bourbon as I called Stefan again, which again resulted in him not answering. I heard soft footsteps from the side and turning around I saw Elena coming up to me.

I smiled at her as she sat on the seat next to me on the couch."You ok? What happened after Klaus snapped my neck?" I asked wanting to know the whole story.

She looked at me as tears started to well in her big brown eyes "He’s gone, Damon. I never thought he would leave, but he’s gone." She said as tears started to fall down her face. I wiped the tears away from her face. "We’ll get him back Elena. I promise you, we will get him back." I assured.

"I don’t think that we can Damon, I watched him with my own eyes. He turned it off. At first he looked as if he was fighting the compulsion, but he still turned it off. Then he drank from me, without even thinking twice!" She said to me as her voice started to break. With every word that she said, I felt my blood boil in anger from knowing that Stefan had turned it off for good, and from the fact that he had drank her blood without thinking.

I looked at her as I wiped away the last of her tears. "I will do everything I can to get him back, Elena. As much as I hate him, he will always be my brother and I’m gonna get him back." I told her in a firm voice and every word I said, I meant it, because Stefan will always be my brother no matter what happens.

Elena smiled at me as she hugged me tightly. I hugged her back, breathing in her scent. She pulled away as she said with a smile. "Thank you." I nodded my head at her as she stood up.

"Elena, what does this make us?” I asked wanting to know what had happened, with Stefan walking in on us kissing and the fact that she was in love with me.

"I don’t know Damon, but I know one thing for sure is that I love you Damon." She said with a smile. I looked at her feeling my heart flutter and felt a smile make its way across my face. I walked over to her as I cupped her face with my hands. I looked into her brown eyes. "I love you, Elena." I said with sincerity in my voice "I love you too, Damon." She said to me as she leaned up and pressed her lips to mine.

"Isn’t this cute." I heard someone’s voice say from behind me. I turned around as I saw her; her long brown curly hair, brown eyes and black leather jacket, pants and boots.

"Katherine.”
