The night couldn't have gone more wrong. Damon had almost burned, she couldn't find Jenna, someone had taken her things...and then came the news that Caroline was in the hospital. And rushing there, Elena was pacing one of the halls waiting for news when she found herself tugged into an empty room.

Necklace yanked off, and a few spoken commands before she found herself in the hallway once more, blinking. She'd missed something....hadn't she? Hand rose, fingertip running along her locket in wonder. What had just happened?

	Damon had come back to the hospital to support Elena more than check on Caroline. Caroline and him were not on the best of terms, even if his blood had been used to heal her. He spotted Elena looking a bit dazed and he walked over to her. "Are you alright?" he asked. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Without questioning it, at his voice, she turned, arms winding tightly around his neck. "I'm so glad you're here." Glad he was there...moreso than she would have been to see Stefan, even. Which should have given her pause. But it didn't. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Damon was surprised by the hug and.... awkwardly returned it. "You are?" he asked. Elena never seemed glad to see him. Maybe the kiss on the porch had meant something after all.... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Of course," she nodded, pulling back just slightly to look up at him. "I...I guess I didn't realize before tonight just how much you mean to me. But when you were about to burn..." Why she was telling him this, she couldn't guess. But she was. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He blinked at her words. "Do you.... do you really mean that, Elena?" he asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Brow furrowed slightly. "...yeah. I was ready to run into the burning building. I would have if Bonnie hadn't... She held me back." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He found himself smiling at her and leaning in to brush his lips over hers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Elena returned the kiss, her eyes sliding shut. She wanted Damon more than she could say. And she wanted him to know that. The kiss deepened, her tongue slipping between their lips as her eyes slid shut. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He pulled back after a few moments. "We should stop.... and continue this... later," he said. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_doppelganger_ 2014-04-06 02:13 pm UTC (link)
	Elena nodded, trying to catch her breath. "Yeah," she nodded. "You're right." Caroline first. But she couldn't bring herself to pull away completely. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Come on, lets go see her," he said opening the door to the ward Caroline was on and holding it open for her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nodding, Elena moved forward. But she stopped in Caroline's doorway, her hand moving up to stop Damon. Her friend was in bed, eyes shut, her chest rising and falling peacefully. "....we shouldn't wake her." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Yeah, you're probably right," he said. He was only there for Elena, to make sure she was handling everything okay. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_doppelganger_ 2014-04-06 02:22 pm UTC (link)
	Moving back out, she shut the door gently behind her. "...thank you. For saving her." For doing that for her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I didn't do it for her, Elena. I did it for you," he said. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_doppelganger_ 2014-04-06 02:27 pm UTC (link)
	"I know," she nodded, looking up at him, eyes serious. "And I'm so thankful. And so appreciative." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mystic_damon 2014-04-06 02:28 pm UTC (link)
	"You're welcome," he said, softly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She smiled at that. And then, arms winding around his neck, she leaned in, lips brushing against his. "You're so much better than you give yourself credit for." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He was surprised by all of this, not sure what was happening. He pulled back after a few moments. "Have you talked to Stefan?" he asked. He didn't want to be the 'other' man, again. That had hurt too much the first time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He nodded his head. "We probably shouldn't..... do anything else until you have," he said. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_doppelganger_ 2014-04-06 03:03 pm UTC (link)
	"Right." He was right. Of course he was. As much as she wanted to just...jump him right now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I should take you home, Elena," he said, placing his hand on the small of her back. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_doppelganger_ 2014-04-06 03:14 pm UTC (link)
	"Okay," she nodded, letting him guide her out the door and show her home. By the time Damon got home, Katherine was stretched out on the sofa, with a clear line of sight to the door. She was leafing through Elena's journal, getting caught up on all she had missed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Damon walked inside and instinctively knew there was someone else there. He walked into the library and saw Katherine there. "Get out," he said, straight away. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
