Damon Salvatore: I will always choose you.

Unpleasantville

EDITED// 12-29-21

The party was pretty lame. Probably because there was no alcohol involved but I put up with it because we were vampire hunting.

Elena was anxious. She kept playing with her white earrings and looking around. I was completely different - I was actually looking forward to catching a vampire and forcing answers from it. It seemed pretty bad ass.

We left Stefan and Damon to scope out the dance and headed to the punch bowl where Elena did more of her paranoid things.

"Having fun?" Elena asked Bonnie and Caroline as they approached us.

Caroline was wearing a yellow cardigan with yellow and white flowers on the shoulders and Bonnie was wearing a white, thin strapped dress that had blue flowers and plants on it. They both looked gorgeous.

"No, but this took about two hours, so I'm at least staying half of that." Caroline replied in her normal manner.

"What's Damon doing here?" Bonnie snarled looking behind Elena and I.

The four of us turned our attention to the two brothers talking with each other on the other side of the room.

"He wanted to come. I promise he'll behave." Elena asserted, raising her brows at the two girls that had disgust written all over their faces.

"Don't worry about him. I've got him on a leash." I added to help ease their suspicions.

"So what is this, like, a foursome now, you two and the Salvatore brothers? Elena has one while Lily has the other?" Caroline mocked, causing me to choke on my drink.

"Damon and I are not an item." I warned, making sure to emphasize the 'not'.

"If I'm gonna be with Stefan, then I have to learn to tolerate Damon. It's not like I can kill him."

"There's a thought." Bonnie mused as she glared at Damon.

"Mmm, I'll help." Caroline smirked and they both clinked their glasses, staring daggers in the direction of Damon.

I chuckled and rolled my eyes at their actions. Elena was trying to hide her amusement but was failing miserably.

Elena left us to go and dance with Stefan because a slow song came on. I did remind her 'sisters before misters' but she only rolled her eyes and laughed thinking I was joking. I wasn't.

The three of us started talking about how dead the dance was when we were interrupted.

"Hi, Bonnie. Wanna dance?" Damon sang with a grin.

"I'm out of here." Bonnie replied, rolling her eyes and started walking off.

"Please give me another chance." Damon pretended to plead, blocking Bonnie off with his body. She didn't listen to him and barged past him.

"Back off Damon." Caroline scowled and followed Bonnie.

I stood there, leaning against the table with a smirk plastered on my amused face. Damon watched them leave and looked at me, rolling his eyes at how funny I was finding his failure.

"Where did they go?" Elena questioned, pretending to sound confused. Her and Stefan had just come back from dancing.

"I don't know." Damon played along, looking around for them.

"What did you say to them?" Stefan asked, trying to suppress his smile.

"I was perfectly polite. Elena... would you like to dance?" Damon tried for the third time.
