I've Fallen For A Killer

Chapter 12

Chapter 12:

It had been hours after Elizabeth's outburst. Her tears had finally stopped falling and was now calm and in a stable state. Enough to allow Damon to go out shopping.

She ran herself a relaxing bath, lighting candles around the edges and filling the bath with fluffy white bubbles that floated lightly on the waters surface.

Elizabeth stripped of her clothes and slowly slid into the water, sighing in relief as the hot water met her sensetive skin.

Her skin began to sooth slowly, closing her eyes, she took in a deep breath, smelling the beautiful sent of the Rose scented candles. Slowly exhaling, continuing the calming rhythm as she relaxed.

Time slowly slipped by her, her simple relaxing turned into falling asleep in the hot water.

Forgetting where she was, she slipped from consciousness and fell asleep.

Dream:

"You're nothing to me! You never where and you never will be!" Damon yelled at her, his fists clenched by his sides and his jaw locked as he gritted his teeth in pure loath and hatred toward Elizabeth as she fell to the ground in tear.

"Y-you said you..... Y-you said y-you loved me!" Elizabeth cried out, hiding her eyes with the palms of her hands, letting the tears pour from her eyes.

Her heart felt like it had been shattered in two. First Kane now Damon. Both breaking her heart, she couldn't take it.

Damon remained his stanse, his eyes boring down at her cowering body.

"You are worthless! Disgusting and you don't deserve anyone. Kane didn't love you! He never did and I sure as hell never will! Sl*t!" He kicked her in the head, causing her to be instantly knocked on the floor, her limp body unable to move any longer.

Damon then left, leaving her to slowly curl up into a ball, crying on the floor of her own living room, crying her eyes out as he walked away, leaving her in the cold, leaving her alone... Forever.

Reality:

"ELIZABETH! PLEASE ANSWER ME!?"

'Damon?' Elizabeth thought as her eyes fluttered open, her vision blurred slightly. She blinked a few times to clear her vision and saw him.

"Damon?" She asked weakly.

Damon held her cold, bare body close to him, his face stained with tears that gently cascaded down his face and into her own cheeks.

Damons beautiful blue eyes stared down at her, filled with worry and sadness. His eyes slowly widen as he hears her weak voice. A sigh of relief escaping his lips.

"Thank god you're okay." He whispers, pulling me into his strong arms.

"S-sorry... I must have fallen asleep." She apologises, wrapping her arms around his neck.

"You were underwater.... I thought you killed yourself." Damon whimpers.

For the first time ever, he sounded more scared than usual, petrified even.

"I wouldn't dare! I-I just had a nightmare..." Elizabeth sighed quietly, looking up at him with sorrowful eyes.

"Don't think about the nightmare. It was only a nightmare and that's all it will ever be! I promise I will protect you, no matter what. Even if you push me away, I won't go. I love you Elizabeth, I love you so much." Damon began to cry again, this time harder, making her heart ache as she hugged him tight.

"I love you Damon... Never leave me alone? Please?" She began to cry with him, her naked body curled up against him as she sat on his lap lightly on the cold bathroom floor.

Damon nodded.

"I will never leave you!" He promises, his voice filled with promise and determination.

Elizabeth sighed in relief, hearing his promise to her. She slowly pulled away and grabbed her towel, unfolding it, Damon took it from her hands and unfolded it for her, wrapping it around her cold body.

Elizabeth smiled weakly up at him.

"Thank you." She whispered, receiving a polite nod from Damon as he picked her up and carried her to her room.

He sat her on her bed lightly then went to her drawers. Pulling out a black vest top and a pair of grey pyjama shorts.

Slowly approaching her with a shy smile he gently removed her towel, drying her body for her with a gently touch.

"Lift your arms." Damon orders softly.

Elizabeth obliged and lifted her arms.

Damon slowly slid her vest top over her head and slid her arms into the straps. He then stood her up carefully, his touch so soft and gentle with her as he slowly lifted her left leg into the shorts then her right leg and pulling them up.

He smiled as he was now back to his original lever, looking down at her as she looked up at him.

Damon kissed her head with a delicate touch. He lead her to the desk and sat her down, grabbing a brush and standing behind her, brushing her hair for her.

He then grabbed the hair dryer and began to dry her hair. Looking at her through the mirror.

Elizabeth was so relaxed by this, her body at ease around him, she didn't feel like she was walking on eggshells around him like she did Kane.

Her eyes closed as he ran his fingers through her light Brown and blond hair.

Elizabeth smiled as he dried her hair for her. This was very different, but certainly the best feeling of relaxation she had ever had.

Once Damon had finished drying her hair and brushing it again, he poked her back up and carried her downstairs, into the living room and laying her on the sofa, putting the throw over her.

"I'll make you some tea and we can watch the next Harry Potter." Damon whispered as his kissed her lips delicately, lovingly.

Elizabeth returned the kiss with a small smile.

"I love you." She whispers as he pulls away.

"I love you too babes. Be right back." Damon said with a shy smile and walked off into the kitchen.

Elizabeth smiled slightly to herself.

'Well... That was different.' She thought to herself as she waited.

************************************

Woah! That was close!

Damon is so kind to her!

I wouldn't mind that in life!

Even if he is a secret murderer, that was adorable! And I wrote it!

Well... Let me know what you think!
