Dangerous Minds- Chapter Twenty-Six

Stefan

She's got this tension in her eyes, watching her from afar is tantalizing, enticing really.

"Playing with fire?" I ask her, watching as Elena ties up her hair, licking her bottom lip when she walks to the middle of my living room, slipping off her pink colored sweat shirt.

"That's what I said." She comments, smiling at me with a mischievous grin.

I should be drunk for this. In control of myself around her. But, I feel myself slipping. I feel my heart aching to reach out and grab her- touch her.

My mind is fighting with itself to keep my heart in check. This isn't the right time or place. This isn't how is should be between us. Throughout everything, Elena still has that glistening in her eyes. The one I fell in love with and I know that I shouldn't be doing this or even suggesting it. However, I can't help myself.

"Do you want a drink?" I ask her, watching Elena turn towards me, shifting her weight and with a smile, she nods.

"Aren't you still on the job, Agent Salvatore?" She asks, an undertone of genuine curiosity.

"No." I shake my head. I can feel my heart pounding faster than it should. My blood pressure must be rising because my pulse is quickening too. Elena moves a step closer, grinning with a mischievous smile on her face.

"What do you want from me, Stefan? A one night stand? One night of mind blowing sex and in the morning neither of us will talk about it again. We can pretend like it never happened." She leans forward, whispering into my ear. Her voice smooth and velvet like with seduction. "I'll never tell if you don't."

Sighing deeply, I close my eyes. Counting backwards. As if it'll help me calm myself around her. As much as I'm denying my feelings for her and saying that they're long gone. We both know that the moment our eyes met again, I'm a lying son of a bitch. Everything inside of me was reawakened and she's the only person in this world that can do that to me.

It's tempting, her offer. And, if I wasn't in the position of being an authority figure responsible for a fugitive. If I was anyone else or anywhere else with her. Truth be told, I'd accept what she's offering. Not because I miss her. No, it's because of these lingering feelings I still have deep within me- the ones that I can feel coming back up to the surface. It's because, I want those feelings to die for good.

"Come on, Stefan." She urges on, wrapping her hand around the red tie around my neck and pulling me against her, Elena strokes my chest as she pushes away from me and points to the cameras that are strategically placed in my apartment to keep an eye on her activities while she stays under my watch. "We can turn those off- for a little bit at least. Besides, isn't there a place where they didn't-" She stops herself, turning away from me as she bites down on her finger and smirks a little.

"Follow me." She states, telling me to wait five minutes before I do.

I'm an idiot. A fool for her. Deep down, I probably always have been. Deep down, I do miss her. Everything damn thing about her. The way her lips would kiss me, the way her soft skin felt so good against my hands. The smell of her hair, the sweet look of longing in her eyes.

"Come on." Elena whispers, taking my hand into her own and leading me into the bathroom with her. Elena closes the door quietly, as if that's going to make any difference and right before I can utter out a word, she presses her body against mine and cups my face into the palm of her hands. "You want me, Stefan. So, here I am. All of me. Right here. You can have all of me, just say it. Tell me, you want me." She states, licking her bottom as she leans forward and captures her lips against mine. A soft and gentle kiss quickly turns heated and passionate. My right-hand glides into her hair, running my fingers through the strands of her dark brown locks as I deepen the kiss and hoist her into my arms. Elena wraps her legs around my waistline, while her back is pressed up against the door of the bathroom and she moans against my mouth.
