Possessed by Damon Salvatore

Chapter 36

"Hey Elena. Um, you going over to Stefan's place, right?" I call Elena to plan up.

"Yeah. Stefan says I should give Damon a chance. He tells Damon has changed. All thanks to you", Elena says from the other end.

My heart does a double flip and I blush.

"Uh, he said that? Haha. Anyways, lets go together? I mean, if you don't mind", I ask.

"Yeah, sure. I'll come over to your place at, um, 6?"

"That will be perfect. See ya later", I say and keep up the phone.

I decide on a red top and black skinny jeans that Damon once complimented me on. But, then again, he always compliments me on almost everything I wear. He's so adorable. I know he's the bad guy that everyone doesn't particularly like. But I wish that they see this sweet, caring side of him. Also, he doesn't let people see the good in him. He is actually a vulnerable person. A vampire, rather.

But I will stand by him. Always. He will not be hurt ever again. I smile at the thought. Me and him, together for eternity.

At 6 in the evening, sharp, Elena knocks on my door. I open it for her while attending to my mom's call.

"Yeah mom. I get it. Don't you worry. I want you to enjoy your travel.", I assure her. "Okay. When will you be back? Everythings fine back here. I miss you too, mom. Come back soon."

I nearly choke with the feelings. I get off the phone and give a smile towards Elena. Without any word, sge comes up and gives me a sympathetic hug. Maybe this was all that I needed. My mom's absence created a void in me. Tears starts falling, silently. I hug Elena back tightly. Thats what girlfriends are for.

Elena takes me at arms length and says, " Uh huh, no crying. She'll be back soon. Now go over to Damon's party and get over with it."

I let out a small giggle and nod.

Together, in my car, we head over to the Salvatore Mansion. I hope everything goes perfectly.

We reach their place and find Stefan near the porch.

"Hey, Stefan", Elena squeels and rushes at him.

He sweeps her off her feet and swings her in the air. Ugh, I'mgetting jealous.

"Jealous much?"

Holy hell. When did he come?

"Shit. Damon. You scared me for a moment", I say, placing my hand over my heart.

"I missed you too", he says and bends down to kiss me. I am still seated on the driver's seat. He unbuckles the seat belt and picks me out of the car, without breaking the contact of our lips.

He chuckles and lets me breathe, out of habit. I raise one eyebrow and stare at him.

He realises finally and takes my mouth again. This time, he scoops me against his chest and carries me towards the door.

"Geez, get a room", Elena mocks.

"You and Stefan can use it first", Damon retorts.

"Hey hey hey. This is supposed to be a friendly evening", I remind them.

Stefan serves us some wine while he and Damon takes bourbon.

"Cheers", we all say and drink. This is nice, comforting. The fact that I am cuddled on Damon's lap makes it even more better. We talk on and on. About various topics. Sports, school, shopping, sex. Variety is the spice of life, they say.
