I froze in my spot and stared at him and so was he. Did he see me taking shower? Naked? Oh my gosh! I can't face him for eternity if my thoughts are proved right.

"What are you doing here?" I croaked out, somehow, with wide eyes.

"I got here the second you turned on the shower. But-" I couldn't wait to hear the rest and live the rest of my life feeling awkward and embarrassed as hell.

"Just leave." I shut my ears and refused to listen to whatever he had to say and kept shaking my head.

He held my hand and removed it roughly. "Just listen to me, Trix. I got here as soon you stepped into the bathroom. Got here as in inside your bedroom and not your bathroom." He said each words very slowly.

"Really?" I asked him, with relief washing over me.

"Yes! And I stepped in only after I heard you putting on your inners." He smirked, eyeing me up and down. Damn, I felt weird being under his gaze.

"That explanation was unnecessary." With that I stormed out of the bathroom and attacked my closet. I also took a mental note that I should always take my clothes inside the bathroom and to keep the widow closed.

I grabbed something from tops section and bottoms section of my closet and rushed back to the bathroom, finding Damon standing by the door.

"Go and wait there." I pointed at my bed and he smirked before walking over to my bed. Since I'd already put on my undies, I didn't mind him listening to the sounds of me putting on the rest of the clothes.

I stepped out after dressing up and stood in front of him, maintaining a good distance from him.

He patted the spot next to him on the bed, with a million dollar smile on his face. That smile was cute. So, I didn't refuse.

"What do you want?" I asked, turning to face him. Though I sounded incredibly rude, I didn't know how else to ask him that question.

"Heard about Klaus." He said, facing me.

"Elijah said he'd help and we have Stefan, Jacob's pack and Edward's family as backup either. You don't have to worry about a damn thing." I shrugged.

"He'd kidnapped you, Trix." He raised his voice a bit, referring to Elijah.

"He didn't kill me." I replied dumbly.

He was about to say something but I raised my hand to shush him." Damon, I don't know whom to trust and whom not to. All I want is, Elena and my friends to be safe."

"You just sounded like Elena." He said.

I looked away from him. His eyes were pulling me towards him. I needed a distraction. I got up from the bed and walked to my couch where my clothes were dumped. I picked up the thing that looked like my PJ's top and started folding it.

I felt a presence behind my back and turned around, like a sane human. Damon was standing and was looking into my eyes. I didn't wanna turn away, his eyes we're too beautiful to ignore but I managed to open my mouth, instead of making it a stare down contest.

"What?" I whispered.

"I'm sorry about whatever I'd said the other day. I was-" I cut him off by placing my fingers on his lips.

"I'm not ready to talk about it now." I said, removing my hand off of his lips and looked away.

"But-" I didn't cut him off this time. It was the sound of my room door bursting open.

Jacob and Edward stepped in giving their best death glares to Damon. I looked back at Damon and found him gritting his teeth, his jaw bone was visible.

"You should leave." Jacob hissed.

"What if I don't?" Damon stayed loyal to his cockiness.

"We'll make you to." Jacob said taking a threatening step forward. When did they become 'we'?  Jake and Ed must be really getting along!

"Try me." Damon smirked at the guys.

Before anything destructive could happen, I stepped in between the guys, with both of my hands stretched out to block the guys, as if it could stop them.

"I'm tired of everything." I said to no one in particular.

"Damon, please leave. We can talk later." I said, pleading with my eyes. He shot me a look, which looked like sad or longing and a death glare at the guys before flying out of my window.

I sighed and sat down on my bed. Edward joined me shortly and held my hand. Awe.

"Where you guys a thing, before all this whole kidnappings happened?" Edward asked, calmly.

Uh-oh. I also heard a growl finding it's way out of Jacob's throat and he was literally shaking and was looking at me dead in the eye, when I looked up at him. 

I thought I'd have to wait until my birthday to drop the news that Damon and I were dating. After the breakup, I decided to drop that bomb on my birthday either. I guess, it had to be disclosed before that. If not, a certain russet coloured wolf may tear open my mouth and take out the words.

Damon, could you come back and save me from these guys?

"I heard all of it." Edward chuckled.
