"Where were आप Damon?"Elena pleaded as she looked deep into his eyes. Her दिन had just been absolute hell, and no one saved her. Not even the one that cared most for her. At least not until the worst was over."I promise आप Elena, I will never leave आप again." Damon gripped her hand, and was at ease that she didnt pull way. He loved her so much, and he hated himself for not saving her at the school. Not stopping Klaus earlier. But at least she was alive.


Elena smiled slightly through her tears, knowing at least someone would be there for her, now that Stefan was truly लॉस्ट now. "It's time to हटाइए on, Damon. We need to forget about Stefan. What i saw tonight, everything i saw tonight, made me realize he's gone. We spent our whole summer searching for him,and I wanted to believe he wasnt a लॉस्ट cause, but he is Damon." she said. Damon could feel her pain. He could see it all over her face, her neck, and oh god her eyes. Such beautiful eyes. He gripped her in a hug, as she cried on his shoulder. He slowly rubbed her hair, and told her it would be okay. It would, wouldnt it?

"hey, hey, Elena. It's okay. Everythings fine. Stefan is gone now, okay?" He quickly got her a tissue to wipe away her tears. Even though she was quite striking in sorrow. "Im so sorry Damon. That i ever thought आप didnt care about him. I know आप cared about him just as much as i did, and im sorry for trying to, make आप into him. But now, he's just as bad as आप were, when आप first came to town, and you, your almost like what Stefan was. Why did आप have to switch roles?" Elena had stopped crying now, though the pain from her wound was excruciating.

"I dont know Elena I-" elena interrups Damon with a किस on the cheek. " Thank आप for getting me out of that hospital, and for दिखा रहा है up," she kisses him again, on the cheek. Maybe she saw it as a reward. She knew how he felt. She knew how she felt. But with everything going on, It would be the worst time to start something with anyone. Esspecially with the news for sure, that Stefan was lost. But....

Damon was startled at the kiss, with Stefan gone, लॉस्ट forever. This would be all that he had hoped for. The woman of his dreams, right infront of him, on the brinc of loneliness, sadness, and utter betrayl. Stefan was gone, and he repeated over and over again inside his head.

Elena leaned in, this time, चुंबन closer to his mouth. Maybe it was wrong. She knew it was wrong. Bad timing. But, she couldnt help what she felt.

Damon returned her kiss, just slightly off the mouth, building up to the ultimate moment, when he would finally किस the woman he felt such intense emotions for, such intense love, and suddenly, he heard a creak in the floorboards of the hallway....
