Vamp

Chapter 9

It was quiet during the car ride. Elena and Bonnie were in Elena's car. I was trapped here with Stefan and Damon. Damon looked pissed. I honestly don't know if Damon wants to be human or not. I thought he would have missed his humanity. I can't really tell anymore. I just feel like a connection between Damon and I is just breaking away. I can't let that happen. We have been driving for 3 days straight. Why are we still driving? Elena isn't evil anymore. She's not out to kill me, but why were we still driving. Stefan turned into an exit. We drove to a gas station, "We're out," Stefan stated. Everyone was getting out of the car. I closed my door. It was chilly out. I could see my breath in the air. Where are we? Nothing seemed familiar. I wanted to go back home. It's just I don't feel comfortable anywhere anymore.

Damon walked towards me. I crossed my arms to warm myself up. Damon's blue eyes looked at me. They seemed more painful than before, "Cold?" He asked. I shook my head, but I could tell he could see the goosebumps on my arms. He handed me his leather jacket, but I shook my head, "N..no I'll be fine." I said. Damon didn't take my answer. He wrapped the jacket around me. I instantly felt the heat from him from his jacket. I looked up at Damon, "Are you okay?" I asked. Damon didn't answer. He was staring at something. I tried to follow his gaze. He was just looking down at the concrete. Nothing. Absolutely nothing, "Damon." I muttered. Damon looked up at me, "No," he muttered, "I'm not fine" he said looking up. "Damon, we'll find a way to get you back." I told him. Damon put his hands on my shoulders, "That's what's so confusing," Damon said, "I don't know if I do want to be a vampire again." I put my hand on Damon's face. I stroked his cheek like he does to mine, "Damon....you'll die like this. You've lived 200 years. You don't think you won't die. You'll grow older everyday now to your real age." Damon took my hand off his cheek and laced his fingers into mine. I looked at our hands for a moment. I remembered what Damon told me back at the Salvatore house.

I'm in love with you, Anna.

I remember his last words before he died. Before he killed himself.

I love you, Anna.

And you know what. I responded back saying.

I love you.

Damon followed my gaze, but I quickly looked up at him. Damon's face was close to mine. Just close enough to kiss him, "I won't die on you," he said, "not in a million years." I tried to speak, but I couldn't. My thoughts felt like they were lost in my head, "Good." I whispered to him. Damon put his face closer to mine and put his lips against mine. I slowly move my hands up to his head and he put his arms against my waist. Our hands unlocked. Our lips were moving back and forth. Damon brought me closer to him. I let go of his lips slowly. We just looked at each other for a while. Just complete silence. Am I in love with Damon Salvatore? Have I fell for his tricks. Damon didn't have any tricks. He just has something in him that can make you fall for him in a snap of a finger. Damon's thumb touched my lip. He started to stroke my cheek again, "What took you so long?" I asked him. A smirk grew across Damon's face. I could tell that he was feeling different now. He shrugged, "I guess I was scared." he said. I laughed, "Damon Salvatore scared?" I said. Damon laughed too, but than his laugh dissloved slowly, "I haven't felt what I feel for you from anyone, Anna." he said. I was breathing in a rhythm. I felt the inside of me smile.

My stomach felt like there was nothing in it. It felt empty. I shook my head, "Damon." I muttered. I got lost in his eyes. They brought me in a paradise. His blue eyes were like an ocean. Filled with things floating around with discovery. I leaned into him and pressed his lips with mine. I let go of them and looked up at him. Damon had his eyes closed. I felt myself grow a smile. His eyes opened slowly. He saw my smile. He gave me his signature smirk. I looked around us. The lamp post lighs were on, but other than that it was dark out. There was a shimmering full moon. Stars were winking. Just bieng here right now with Damon was beautiful. Damon put his hand on my cheek, "I really do care about you, Anna." he said. I nodded my head. I knew he did. Damon Salvatore was a man who looked tough on the outside, but was slowly breaking with emotions inside. "I know, " I told him, "I love you, Damon." Damon grew a smile and pulled me in for a hug, "I promise, I'll protect you." I believed every one of his words because he wasn't going to let anyone touch me.
