- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -It was one of the first nice days in a long time so the brunette doppelganger took complete advantage of it. She had originally chosen a short denim skirt paired with a flowing blue and white tank top. However upon thinking it over a bit more she lost the skirt and instead paired it with a pair of distressed skinny jeans, figuring that while it was nice out, it wasn't nice enough for a skirt and sandals. She personally couldn't wait for the summer months since she missed the sun but alas it wasn't here yet so she took what she could get.
School had been uneventful unless you counted two girls getting into a fight because one had slept with the other’s boyfriend. This did not qualify as eventful in the young woman’s mind, at least not anymore. At one time it would have been news that she, Bonnie and Caroline talked about for hours on end but since the supernatural world had invaded their small town of Mystic Falls she found that things that mattered once didn’t and things that she used to find interesting and entertaining she no longer cared to discuss or even hear about. It was strange but true.
After her last class she had met up with Jeremy by his locker, giving him her house key since apparently his had gone missing. This would have worried her at one point but now she was aware that anyone who could actually get into the house could get in without a key and those who couldn’t get in, a key wasn’t what was stopping them. She was grateful that he offered to go to the hardware store to have another one made as she always felt out of place in the town hardware store, something that she knew most women felt.
Figuring she had a little over an hour before her brother would be home she had originally decided to go hang out with Caroline at practice but her eyes caught the last text message she had received from Damon and her plans changed. She made her way towards her car, starting it and driving the familiar roads to the Salvatore Boarding House. She and Damon hadn’t spoken more than through a few text messages since the whole incident with his memory loss and her compulsion and it needed to stop. She missed her friend more than she probably should so today it was going to end.
Mere moments later she pulled into the driveway, knowing that Damon was sure to have heard the car but she didn’t care, shutting the door loudly. She stormed into the house and looked around, not seeing Damon and while normally she would go wander around the house to try and find him she really didn’t want to run into Stefan at the moment. Not that she didn’t love him as much as she always had but she really was not in the right place to have a verbal sparring war with him.
Taking a deep breath she sighed before making her way upstairs towards Damon’s room, knocking on his door as she did. “Damon?” She called, hoping she wasn’t interrupting anything.

------------------------------ [/b][/size]  ------------------------------[/b][/size] Damon had received a text from Elena and instantly rolled his eyes at it but he couldn't help but feel happy that Elena was coming over. It had been a really long time since the duo had talked and that actually really upset Damon and he wanted to tell her that but he just couldn't find the words too. Damon was going to text Elena but he got a text from Sophia and he instantly smirked, he couldn't help it but he wasn't sure what exactly to say to the other vampire...she did kind of give permission for Damon and Lexi to tease and flirt right? So he shouldn't be punished for anything he had refrained with all his might and that was something especially since it was Damon and usually he gave into temptation but he was pretty proud of himself considering he was completely drunk out of his mind...good thing he could actually remember the night.
Damon just shook his head and looked back at the text Elena sent him. He wasn't going to answer and he would just read a book on his bed and wait, if she did actually show up. She probably would considering it was Elena and when she said she was going to do something she pretty much did which could be really annoying. He went up the stairs and grabbed a random book he just thought would waste time and if he was lucky Elena wouldn't find him up here, maybe she would think that he wasn't home, he just had to be quiet and he would be fine. He wasn't looking forward to having a serious conversation with her, he just wanted to skip that whole part and he still felt guilty for hurting the brunette.
Damon heard the car door and for a minute he actually thought of hiding somewhere considering how hard she slammed that door but he just stayed in the bed and kept reading the book. Of course Elena had found him and Damon put down the book looking at Elena not sure what to say. "Elena...," he said trying to think of other words. "You're right I don't want to talk about this," he said honestly. "Let's skip this part and just hug because you know you want to," he said with a smirk. He was not in the mood to have some deep conversation in what happened when he had no humanity and actually had fun hurting the girl he still loved. Damon just wasn't prepared for this conversation to be honest he would never be prepared.
But maybe this was a good time to tell Elena about Sophia, he did send her that cryptic text awhile ago but never actually told her. So, they did have something to talk about but Damon knew Elena probably wanted to do this serious conversation first which he wasn't looking forward to but knew that it was inevitable to avoid it because of course it was Elena Gilbert who had to make everything right. He did miss having her around and teasing her though, so maybe this would be good even if Damon was dreading it. He just stared at Elena waiting for her to initiate the topic about that day. He was thinking about standing up but he knew he'd probably get irritated with something and stand up at some point.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -She didn’t wait until he spoke, instead she walked into his room, leaving the door open behind her since she didn’t know if she would need a quick exit or not, and made her way towards the bed where he was laying, pretending to read a book. She wasn’t stupid by any means and she knew Damon a lot better than most, which means she knew that he never just laid in his room reading a book unless he had absolutely nothing better to do. She also knew that there was a good chance that he had a hundred other things he’d rather be doing than read.
Which meant he was doing it to try and get rid of her. Which if he knew her at all he would know that the whole getting rid of her thing wouldn’t happen until they had it out. She missed Damon, more than she would really admit to anyone besides herself. She missed him but she wondered really why she missed him as much as she did. Was it because he was the closest thing that she had to Stefan or was it because he was Damon and one of her best friends?
Both answers concerned her for different reasons. The first one where he was just a stand in for Stefan bothered her since clearly there was no replacing someone, no one could ever replace someone else, but especially not Stefan. He and Damon were nowhere near alike other than their protectiveness over her but that was really where the similarities stopped. So why did some part of her feel guilty for using him as a stand in for his brother? The other reason, about being her best friend worried her since she knew that his feelings weren’t just friendly ones. She knew that he thought he was in love with her and maybe he was…but she had made it clear more than once that she loved Stefan.
Like she told him…it was always going to be Stefan.
She put her hands on her hips, waiting for him to speak first. When he did the words that left his lips did not surprise her though they did anger her a bit. “No.” She told him firmly. “I won’t just hug you and pretend like everything is okay because it’s not. I know that I asked for it when I took off my necklace and allowed you to compel me but before that…in the caves…Damon you would have killed me had it not been for Lexi! And I know you didn’t know who I was but I would have thought that looking like a woman that you claimed to love would have given me a bit of protection from you psychotic tendencies…but they didn’t.” She told him, wrapping her arms around herself as she felt a burst of cold come through, whether it was the air conditioner or the topic of conversation she didn’t know.
Either way she wasn’t comfortable…not one single bit.
“You hurt me Damon. I trusted you more than most people in my life, even when everyone, including you and your brother, has told me not too. And yet you do and say the things that you did. I know that you had your humanity turned off and your memories were all messed up, but really, was there nothing left of you then?” She asked her eyes boring into hers with curiosity and hurt clouding them.

------------------------------ [/b][/size] ------------------------------[/b][/size] Damon just wanted to pretend that he was occupied even though he wasn't, but if reading a book could get him out of the conversation the two were about to have then he'd be happy to read the book for the time being. He didn't understand why the brunette needed to talk to him so badly, couldn't they just pretend none of it happened? The things Damon did...he had hurt Elena and not only thought but she basically snapped on him and didn't want to see him again, it just didn't make sense to him why she was trying to speak to him now, why couldn't she try to avoid him also or just pretend none of it happened. Apparently Elena wasn't the type to forget, and Damon knew that but still hoped it wouldn't come to this.
Damon had missed Elena a lot...more than he could admit, and he didn't like it but he had to avoid her so he could get his thoughts and mind in the right place. She had to know that him hurting her was the last thing he wanted to do and when he did it his guilt rose even though his memory was lost before he still felt that guilt when he got his memory back from Elijah. God, he really did hate Klaus for compelling him to forget, the only good thing it brought was Damon meeting Sophia and maybe he would have met her if he did have his memory but he would have loved Elena and not given it a chance so him being compelled actually did something god.
Damon put the book down and got up to stand in front of her by using vamparic speed. "Don't you get it?! Just because I love you doesn't mean I can control myself," he told the girl a little angrily. He was compelled, what did she expect? For him to just stop what he was doing and be on his way because his love for her was so strong? "The world doesn't work the way you want it to Elena, I'm not Stefan I don't control every single little thing," he told the girl. Why was she trying to make him like such a good guy? He loved her and it wasn't his fault his dark side hurt her. "Do you want me to say sorry for what I did? You know I am, I didn't want to try and kill you...I wanted to drink you just to hurt Lexi, I was ready to break your arm before she came," he said with a frown.
Damon was starting to become angry, it wasn't his fault, what did she want him to do? "Elena, I know I hurt you but what part of me was left? The way I feel about you? No, I knew nothing but...when I was about to bite you I did resist...is that what you want to hear Elena?" He didn't know what the right words would be for this girl. "I messed up," he said putting his arms up and to the side. "I'm not the saint, I'm not the hero who can suddenly make everything right," he told her in frustration. Sometimes it did suck to have so many flaws. He wished that he could have broken that compulsion when he saw Elena in the cave but he couldn't, he wasn't strong enough. "Everyone told you not to trust me and so did I, I think it's time you start listening. Don't trust me Elena, I'm not the good guy, and you've already been hurt by me. Let's just leave it alone," he told the girl walking back to the bed and he sat at the edge. He just didn't know what she expected from him.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Elena shook her head and sighed, moving so that she could take her bag from around her body and place it on the chair that was against the wall in Damon's room. She knew that she should probably just walk out and wait until he had calmed down but the problem with Damon was that he could hold grudges like none other...and she knew that because there was no Stefan at the moment to push him to get over himself it fell to her to do so. These were the times that she hated herself for becoming so involved with both Salvatore brothers.
"I didn't mean me Damon!" She shouted before collecting herself as much as possible. She didn't show her fear in front of him because now that he had his memories she knew that he wouldn't hurt her. “When you didn’t know who I was, at first you thought I was Katherine. So the fact that you would hurt me even though I looked identical to Katherine, who was apparently the woman that you were in love with, that’s what I was talking about.” She told him, her eyes flashing in anger. “We never talk about the fact that you love me. That’s not something I would ever throw in your face because I know that’s not fair.” She told him.
“I never asked you to be Stefan Damon.” She told him, though her eyes betrayed the lie she just told. She had tried to turn him into Stefan even though she hadn’t realized she was doing it early in the summer. He had confronted her about it then as well and she had realized he was right. It wasn’t a conscious decision but because she had always felt so safe with Stefan she had been trying to turn Damon into him…and that wasn’t fair to either of them.
"Why would you have wanted to hurt ME to get back at LEXI? What do I have to do with whatever the hell is going on between the two of you? Hurting me to get back at Stefan? I would understand though I know you didn't know who I was so you didn't know who I was in regards to Stefan, but why would you bite me to hurt Lexi?" She asked, not understanding any of this but at the same time also not knowing if she really wanted to know. No, that was a lie. She was a curious person by nature meaning that she always wanted to know what was going on, but a part of her wanted to bury it so they could get back to where they were before. She had already lost Stefan, and while she still had hope, it was harder each day to keep that hope alive…she didn’t want to imagine losing Damon as well.
She watched as he tried to walk away but she put her arm on his, hoping that he wouldn’t just shrug her off. "Damon, I didn't come here to fight with you. I wanted to talk this out because I do trust you. You've protected my friends, my family, me... you've done everything you could to help us. And yeah, your not Stefan...I don't want you to be. I want you to be Damon...the Damon that was my friend. We've come back to that place before...why can't we make it back to it again?"

------------------------------ [/b][/size] ------------------------------[/b][/size] Damon knew that this conversation would be going on for a long time...unless he decided to walk out, but he wouldn't because he did care for the girl and he did want to fix things. Damon just hated how he had to put an effort in this friendship when in reality all he wanted to do was be in a relationship with the girl and that was never going to happen. Yes, Damon was getting over her and he was starting to understand that her and Stefan did deserve each other. There was one thing Damon was bad at and that was letting go, he was getting over her but he just couldn't let go for some reason and he needed to find a way to do that, he just had to figure out a way how.
"But then I knew you weren't Katherine so it didn't matter to me," he told the girl. He knew she was getting frustrated and so was Damon, this whole topic was just angering him. "Besides this is the past so does it really matter anymore?" He asked the girl even though he already knew the answer. God, was there a way to make this conversation go faster? Damon really didn't want to talk about this, he was just going to become angrier and more annoyed with the girl, unless things actually got fixed between them which would be a surprise. Damon had hoped the conversation would be worth it.
"Sure Elena, that's why for the past year you didn't try to make me my little brother when he was gone," he said sarcastically. "It doesn't matter anyway," he told the girl. "We both know I'm never gonna change," he sighed after. For the whole year Elena had been trying to turn Damon into someone he wasn't and that was Stefan. Damon didn't realize it at first but then he started noticing a pattern and how Elena wanted him to do things in a certain way and he had to try and act good but it wasn't him and the girl had realized that, well hopefully she did.
"Elena, do you really think I know what's wrong with me?" He asked the girl although it was more rhetorical. Damon was starting to become angry, he didn't have all the damn answers. "I'm a psychopath, not as bad as Klaus but pretty up there and when I have my humanity off I do worse things so knowing you were friends with Lexi just made me want to kill you, for the fun of it," he said irritated. "Is that the answer you want? That I wanted to put my fangs into your neck and drink you? Or that I wanted to tear your head off? Maybe that's why but I don't have all the answers," he told the girl frustrated with himself and her. "Now, do you want an apology or what?" Okay, he wasn't sure why he was asking her if she wanted an apology, he should say it but he didn't want to at the moment.
"Because...I hurt you Elena...I shouldn't have even if I was compelled," this was what made Damon jealous of Stefan because Stefan always had the strength to resist whatever it was when it came to Elena but when Damon tried he failed. "Maybe one day we can but that's a long time from now, I miss you and I do want to talk to you again I just don't know what to do. I screwed up Elena," he said with a frown. He knew he wasn't going anywhere since Elena's arm was in the way, Damon could move it but he wasn't going to, he would just try and resolve this, it seemed to be working though.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -She shook her head, taking a deep breath to try and quell the tears. “Damon, do you remember what happened when Stefan was compelled?” She asked him, trying to make him see that she understood. “Sure, when he was simply under Klaus’ control he was able to fight it. But when Klaus compelled him to turn off his humanity he bit me in about 2.5 seconds. And I’m apparently the love of his life.” She told him, remembering the feelings of hurt that she felt that night. “He’s held me when I cried, kissed me when I was happy, and been with me in all ways possible. And yet he still did exactly what Klaus said to. He turned off his humanity and then he fed from me. Would have killed me if Klaus hadn’t been there to stop him.” She told him, wanting him to understand.
“So you trying to kill me…that’s not what I’m upset about. I mean yeah it was scary and yes I was a bit upset by the fact that you did that but I’m over that. My issue now is that you’ve avoided me for so long. Damon you are my best friend. Hell I tell you things that I don’t tell Bonnie or Caroline or Jeremy or even Stefan sometimes. You and I talk about things that are uncomfortable and while sometimes I wish that some of the things you wouldn’t say you give it to me straight. I know I can get the absolute truth from you and not sugar coated which others tend to do.” She explained.
“You and I have fun together and we can laugh and mess around and not have to feel guilty because of it. And I miss that. I miss having someone I can scream at and who will scream back at me and I don’t feel guilty because of the things I say. You don’t let things affect you the way that others do and I miss that…I miss you.” She whispered, knowing that she wasn’t explaining things as well as she should. She did love Damon, probably more than she should, but it would always be Stefan who owned her heart and she prayed that she wasn’t leading Damon on by saying the things that she was. Everything she said was true and she knew that she was being selfish but she didn’t care. She had lost so much, she refused to lose anyone else.
“We all screw up. God knows I have. Think about just in the short amount of time that you’ve known me and my friends? Jeremy was a drug addict, I fell in love with a vampire, Bonnie almost set a car wash on fire because she didn’t really know at the time that she was a witch, Caroline killed someone because she was turned and none of us realized it… we’ve all screwed up in ways that are unimaginable to others and yet we’ve all gotten through it. None of us thought that Jeremy would get over the drug problem and now he’s fine. You yourself didn’t think that Caroline would make it a week as a vampire and I’m more proud of her than ever. We can get through this…but you have to want too.” She told him, her eyes beseeching his to understand where she was coming from.
She took the dark haired man’s hand and squeezed it before placing it above her heart. She knew a lot of people would consider it sexual but it wasn’t, it was simply trying to show him how much she did care about him. “You’re in my heart Damon, and once you are there…you can’t leave. So don’t give up because it’s hard or because you’re embarrassed. I forgive you…but I don’t want to not talk this long again. Or else I really will kick your ass….or at least have Lexi do it.” She stated with a laugh, her eyes hopeful.

------------------------------ [/b][/size] ------------------------------[/b][/size] Damon gave the girl a nod, he knew exactly what happened and it sucked but it was what it was. "But Stefan still had the strength to delay what he was about to do to you, if Klaus had done that to me you would have been dead in a second," he told the girl honestly. Damon wasn't really strong in his mind and he would give into compulsion very easily. "I'm not strong Elena, Stefan is. His love for you let Klaus interfere before he killed you," it didn't really make sense what he said out loud but it made sense to him. "What exactly do you want me to understand? That our friendship is so strong that you want to forgive me? I'm not even ready to forgive myself," he told the girl. God, Damon was such a stubborn guy,
Damon actually felt pretty special that Elena could tell him things that she hadn't told anyone, he just felt really special and he wasn't getting hope of the two becoming in a relationship because well, he understood now that his brother and Elena were meant to be together. That was one thing Elena could count on him, Damon telling her the truth no matter how harsh the truth was, he was glad that she appreciated that. He knew he could be a dick about things from to time but at least it was better to be a dick rather than someone who lies to not hurt someone's feelings, that had never been Damon's way. He didn't like how she trusted him considering Damon did mess up sometimes but it felt good to be trusted.
"That's because I'm better than others," he said jokingly but cockily at the same time. "And...I miss you too," he said while looking at the girl. "It's been a long couple of weeks and I wanted to talk to you but I still felt guilty," he told her honestly. "Elena, I never want to hurt you and when Klaus compelled me to forget...I was just weak and I'm sorry," he said with a frown. "And never take your vervain necklace off again that was stupid of you," he said with a smile. She was an idiot for taking it off, he could have tried more than just a kiss or he could have compelled her to kill herself right away. At least he had restraint when he forgot about everything, not a lot but enough to make him not do a lot of harm.
"I do want too, I want to fix things Elena," yes, Damon could be a stubborn asshole but he wanted his friend back real badly, he valued their friendship a lot actually. Although he didn't want this conversation he was glad the girl came over and forced him to communicate with her. He was a bad communicator but this just may be one of the best conversation he had handled. "I'll let you slap me next time," he said with a chuckle. "So that's it? We gonna hold hands now and sing kumbaya?" He said jokingly. The friendship had finally been fixed, thank gosh. He was just glad to be in her life.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -She laughed when he asked if she wanted to sing Kumbaya and hold hands. “I have a better idea. Meet me at the Grill tomorrow night and we can have drinks on you.” She stated with a laugh before sobering up. “Oh, wait, it’s going to have to be two nights from now. Tomorrow is Stefan’s surprise birthday party courtesy of Lexi.” She stated, the look on her face clearly showing that she had no interest in going to a birthday party for Stefan who was at the moment under Klaus’ control and not exactly being the friendliest of people towards her.
Trying to bring back the happiness that had been in the room only moments before she put on a smile, though it was clear her by her eyes that it was a struggle. She didn’t want to admit to anyone how badly she missed Stefan, and not for the reason that people thought. She doubted anyone knew how close the two really were. Stefan while yes was her boyfriend he was also one of her closest friends. She talked to him and Damon about things that she couldn’t talk to anyone else about and while she talked to them about different things, it was still a place where she felt at home at.
“Okay, so you, me, the grill, two nights from now, drinks are on you…food is on you.” She told him with a laugh. “I like that plan. Hey maybe we should fight more often? If I get free food and drinks out of it.” She stated with another laugh before giving him a hug, her arms wrapping around his waist as she laid her head on his chest for a few minutes. It took him only a few seconds before his arms wrapped around her though it was several moments later before they pulled apart. It was clear that things were still a bit strained but they would get back to normal with a few more days of dealing with one another front and center.
“Okay, well I’ve got to go. I’m having a movie night with Jeremy tonight which equals out to me having to get there early to make sure things are set up as he’ll be twenty minutes late.” She stated with a laugh, pulling away and picking up her bag. “I’m assuming I’ll see you tomorrow night?” She asked and upon receiving a wave she headed out the door.
Taking a deep sigh in relief as one relationship was mended.
