Past Meets Present (1)

Chapter 19

I lead Damon upstairs and as soon as I closed the door , his lips were on mine fiercely kissing me . I felt his arms around me , pulling me closer to him . What was it about him ? Maybe it was the fact that he wanted me . He actually wanted me . We kissed some more and I felt Damon pull me closer against him .

The next morning , I woke up to a knock on my door .

I got up carfully , making sure not to disturb Damon and opened the door to see Bella standing before me .

" Yes ? " I asked with a yawn .

" I was wondering if you wanted to go to the beach . " Bella said .

I looked over my shoulder at the shirtless sleeping Damon asleep .

" Sure . " I said .

" Alright , I'll see you downstairs . " Bella said .

" Okay . " I said .

I quickly changed into a striped bathing suit with a cover up that showed some clevage and kissed Damon gently on the cheek before leaving . I walked downstairs and saw Bella waiting there .

" Where are the Cullens ? " I asked .

" Out hunting . " she said .

I nodded .

" We'll take my car . " I said.

She nodded and we walked out and I got in the driver's seat .

Bella gasped at my car.

" WOW ! " she said .

" Edward got it for me. It was a birthday present. " I added .

Bella got in and I drove to the beach .

" Nobody comes to this beach .They all go to La Push. " Bella said .

" I have NO idea what you're talking about . " I said laughing.

Bella laughed too and we got out and started walking .

" So you and Edward are close ? " she asked .

" We tell each other everything . " I said .

" He talks about you all the time . " she said .

" Yes well , I guess you can't help but talk about somebody that you've known almost a century . " I said giggling .

" Where did yo two meet ? " Bella asked .

" In Chicago . 2 years after he was turned into our kind . I met him while singing and we just clicked . I was his only friend and I taught him all that I know . " I said .

" Was there ever more ? " asked Bella .

" No , not really . Just friendship . " I said .

Bella looked relieved .

I smiled .

We drove back to the Cullen house and the Cullens were there with Damon.

Damon and Emmett were arm wrestling and Damon won .

Damon got up and walked over , pulling me into a hug and a kiss .

" Sorry I didn't tell you were I was going. " I said .

Damon rolled his eyes .

" I'm not my brother . " he said .

My phone rang .

" Excuse me . " I said .

I walked out onto the porch and answered it .

" Hello , sister . " Katherine said .

" Hey , Kat . How are you ? " I asked .

" I'm fine , I called to see how YOU were . " she said .

" I'm fine aswell . How is Mystic Falls? " I asked .

" It's good . " Katherine said.

" You're not back to your old tricks are you ? " I asked .

"Me ? Of course not . " she said , sounding offended .

I rolled my eyes .

" I have to go . " I said.

" Alright , bye , sister . " she said and hung up .

I walked back inside .

" Everything alright ? " Damon asked .

" Katherine . " I said .

" How is the little thorn in my side ? " he asked .

I slapped him lightly .

Damon rolled his eyes.

" We have to go get ready for training tonight . " Esme said .

" Training ? " I asked .

" We are training to fight the newborns tonight. Jasper has experience. " Carlisle explained .

" Oh , mind if we join ? " I asked .

" No , not at all , I've been dyeing to see your fighting skills . " Rose said .

I smiled .

" I'm going to go change. " I said .

Damon and I linked arms and walked up to the bedroom and I walked into the bathroom and changed into jeans , a white tank top and army boots and I was pulling a brush through my thick hair when I heard Damon talking to someone :

" Elena , calm down ..... I'm sure he's fine ......I know wierd things have been going on in Mystic Falls ..... No , I don't know what it could be .... Yeah , I'll be back in a few days .... alright..... bye ....."
