Dear Diary
Stefan. It will always be Stefan, but how can I NOT have feelings for Damon too. Sure I mean, he has had his moments, like killing my brother, and just being a dick, but he really is good inside. How can I not love that too.
Elena sighed put her head down on my pillow, and tried to go to sleep. Unfortunately, just like the last few days, she couldn't, not without thinking about him. Damon, she thought. I just couldn't hide my love for him anymore. Then I had to worry about Stefan I loved him too, I probably always would, but for some reason I feel like I'm not worthy of him. Loving his brother, I guess I really was Katherine's doppelganger. I couldn't tag him along anymore, not like I did Matt, Tomorrow I will tell him, and Damon, what I feel. With That Elena fell asleep, and she slept a peaceful sleep, which hadn't happened in a long time.
The morning was there before she let herself believe it. Her phone buzzed, a text from Stefan, "pick you up at 9:00am" she replied "okay meet you outside." She showered, got dressed, ate a bagel then waited trying to think how she was going to do this. I'll just tell Stefan I need to talk to him and Damon, he'll think it's strange but will agree. Damn it he will be heart broken, but I can't just act like I still have feelings for him, then him and Damon will think I am just like Katherine. Just then a car pulled up, but Stefan wasn't inside, Damon was. She opened the passenger side door, and there was Damon and his breathtaking smile looking at her.
"Where's Stefan?" She asked warily.
"He's fine, he just had to do something, Caroline had a little slip up and needed help. So I'm on Elena duty."
"How long do you think he will be gone?" She asked thinking alone time with Damon might not be a good idea, yet she yearned for his attention.
"Probably all day depends on how worked up Caroline is, which usually can be a lot. Why do you not want to hang-out with me all day because I'm sure Stefan will be happy to make other arrangements." Damon replied he sounded seriously hurt.
"No no" she said almost immediately, "It's just, I'm sorta glad, we never get to hang out, just us, I mean."
"I know." He said, his smile returning, "so what do you want to do today Elena?"
"Can we just stay at the boarding house today, it's going to be empty, and we will be alone, right? Because I need to talk to you."
"Ya it will be empty, what do you want to talk about?" Serious concern yet playfulness in his voice.
"Just...stuff."
"Okay whatever you want."
That was the great thing about Damon he loved to have a good time, but if you needed him you could rely on him to be there for you. They were almost at the house when Damon looked at Elena, with a confusion you never saw much.
"What?" She asked blushing a deep scarlet.
"Nothing you just seem to be deep in thought. Are you okay?" They were pulling into the drive way now, almost time to come clean.
"No, I mean yes Damon, we'll talk inside.
With that he had parked the car and was already opening the door for me, holding his hand out to lead me inside. With a sigh I took it and as we walked through the door to the house, I blurted out exactly what I didn't want to say yet, "Damon, I love you." He stopped, turned to look at me, with a smile he whispered I love you too, swept me into his arms and kissed me like I had never been before. I had to pull away after a few minutes. I looked at Damon desperately "Now what on earth do we tell Stefan?"
