Unconditionally

Chapter 8

"See, it has only been a week and I know you so well already." Damon smiles.

"Do you do that with every girl you meet?" I ask, laughing.

"Do what?" He asks.

"Get to know them, use them, and then find another girl?"

"Ouch Elena. I do have standards you know, after all I am Giuseppe Salvatore's son." He raises his hands, praising himself.

"Yeah and so is Stefan, but he is much better than you." I state.

"Are you always so mean? Or is my hotness affecting you a little too much?" Damon smirks.

"Are you always so full of yourself or is that your best pick up line?" I reply.

He laughs. "You are something different, Elena Gilbert."

"Don't get used to that, I'm soon to be Salvatore." I smile.

"Well, I guess that's a good thing. Girls dream of getting married to us."

"Yeah, I can see that." I scoff, reminiscing about Stefanie.

"So, I'm having pancakes. What about you?" I ask him quickly, trying to change the topic.

"I'll have coffee." He replies. We find a place to sit in the corner and order our food and drinks. It's a little weird, cause I'm supposed to have breakfast with my fiance but instead, I'm hanging out with his brother nowadays. To be honest, it's not entirely my fault. After all, Stefan is always busy with 'I don't know what' and I just get bored. Plus, Damon is a great guy, even though he is an ass sometimes.

"So tell me, Damon. How's Stefanie?" I chuckle.

"Who? Oh.. that girl. Well I honestly have no clue." He answers blankly.

"Huh? Aren't you guys like a thing?" I ask curiously.

"Nah, she's not really my type. She talks a lot too, always blabbering about something." Damon laughs. I nod my head silently, not wanting to be too nosy.

"Well, she's hot though." He chuckles.

"Yeah, she kind of likes you." I say softly.

"Yeah I know, all girls do." I roll my eyes. The cocky Damon is back on track.

"Of course they do." I shake my head.

"I know right, everyone wants to date me. Even guy maybe." He considers.

"I wouldn't even consider dating you if I wasn't engaged to Stefan." I laugh.

"Oh please, we both know that you wouldn't even look at Stefan if you met me first." Damon says confidently.

"Yeah right." I scoff. But I wonder, what would actually happen if I had met Damon first?

-----------------------------------------------------------

We leave after we finish eating and my Dad calls me to tell me Bonnie has a surprise for me. Ad we're reaching Damon's car, he abruptly stops and I bump into him from behind.

"Damon, what's wr-"

"Shit!"

"What?"

"Shit it's her. Again. Shit." He says nervously. What is going on? I step forward and notice him staring at a pretty girl in high heels and a super short dress. So now he's scared of a girl?
