Sarah: and here's quite the interesting little Season 1 fanfic. I hope everyone enjoys it.

CREDIT
As always, I must give out credit to my amazing beta Cameron, aka VDfan2107. Without him, this story would still be stuck in my head. That, or it would be so full of grammatical and spelling errors that I'd be ashamed once I read over it again after posting it. Thank you so much for all your help, Cameron.

DISCLAIMER
If I owned Vampire Diaries, I would have had Delena occur a lot sooner than they got together in the show. As it is, this story as it is written is all that I own. If there is a concept that is mine as it is portrayed, I will claim it before the chapter. If I use a concept or scene suggested by a reviewer, I will make a section like the one above that gives credit to that reviewer for the idea. If neither of these things happen, it is safe to assume that neither I nor a reviewer own it.

WARNINGS
ALTERNATE UNIVERSE! Alters from the show's storyline at some point between 1x08, "162 Candles", and 1x11, "Bloodlines". In other words, it takes place after Damon kills Lexi but before his and Elena's road trip to Georgia. Stefan and Elena are not officially a couple just yet. Alternating between Damon's and Elena's viewpoints with the occasional peek at Stefan's viewpoint. Starts with Damon's viewpoint. Rated M for more than just my sanity. You have been warned.

SUMMARY
After having his council meeting canceled; Damon decides to pay Elena a visit. When he finds out what time of the month it is for her, his libido goes into overdrive. What happens when Elena's hormones are thrown into the mix? And what will the consequences be? Damon/Elena

Chapter 1
Blood & Hormones

I smirk as I listen to Elena finish up in the bathroom she shares with her brother. The secret council meeting I'm supposed to be attending right now had been canceled and I decided to use my sudden window of free time to pay a visit to Elena. Sure, she won't be happy to see me. In fact, she's probably still pissed that I had killed Lexi and would try to throw me out of her room if it weren't for the fact that I'm a vampire and so much stronger than her.

As I wait for her to come back to her room, I fiddle with her favorite stuffed animal, a cute stuffed bear she calls Teddy. Teddy is relaxing in my lap as I relax on Elena's bed. I like Teddy, strange as that sounds. Something about him is comforting to me. Almost as comforting as Elena's presence. Not that I'll ever admit to any of that.

I smirk when I hear Elena flick off the light in her bathroom before opening the door to her room. "Damon!" she gasps, instinctively clutching the towel that is the only thing she's wearing. She scowls. "What are you doing here?"

"My plans for the evening got cancelled and I decided to use my sudden window of free time to pay you a visit," I reply.

She huffs. "Whatever it is you came to say, just say it and get out," she snaps.

Suddenly, I'm distracted by an absolutely mouthwatering aroma coming from her. Mingled in with her natural scent and the scent of a virgin is the delectable scent a woman gives off only at a certain time of the month. "Well, well, someone's a little bloody tonight," I tease.

"I'm not injured," she protests with a frown.

"I didn't say you were. But I can detect the sweet aroma of blood coming from you. And it's even sweeter than when it was at the Halloween party," I say with a chuckle.

It takes her a moment to realize precisely what I'm talking about. When she connects the dots, she turns crimson with embarrassment. "Get out," she orders.

I give her my most seductive smile as well as my best bedroom eyes. I sit up and shrug out of my jacket. "Is it a hot in here or is it just me?" I ask, tossing my jacket over to the chair at her desk before unbuttoning the top few buttons of my shirt. Her eyes fixate on the expanse of my chest that that act reveals. The delicious aroma coming off her becomes even more enticing as arousal mixes in with the other scents. "Definitely hot in here," I answer myself, unbuttoning my shirt the rest of the way and tossing it to mingle with my jacket.

Elena's mouth works soundlessly as her eyes eat me up. Her hormones are at their most extreme at this time of month. Even on a normal day, I know damn well she's attracted to me. Add in her raging hormones and the fact that I'm now shirtless for the first time in her presence and she's going to be putty in my hands. "Y-you should l-leave," she manages to get out; though I can tell that is the last thing she wants right now.

"Are you sure that's what you want?" I ask, lacing my voice with just the right amount of honey. "Because if that's really what you want, I guess I could leave." I set Teddy to the side and slowly climb out of her bed. Her eyes immediately fix on the bulge in my jeans that had appeared as soon as her scent hit my nose. She swallows hard and takes an involuntary step towards me. "It doesn't look like you want me to leave," I croon. A second step follows the first, the scent of her arousal becoming stronger. "It doesn't smell like you want me to leave either," I add. "What do you really want right now, Elena? I can tell we're all alone in your house at the moment. Only you and I will know what happens. Give in to what we both know you want."

With that, she finishes closing the distance between us so that she can fling her arms around my neck and pull my head down so she can crush her lips to mine. That's all the answer I need. I wrap my arms around her and pull her body flush against mine. I trace her lips with my tongue and she instantly parts them, allowing me to plunge my tongue into her mouth. After tasting and exploring every crevice of her mouth, I tease her tongue into a war for dominance, which I win after a good battle. Then I have to break the kiss so she can get much needed oxygen into her lungs. Her hands trail from around my neck down my chest and over my abs to fumble with my fly in an effort to rid me of my jeans. I easily bat her hands aside and take care of unfastening the fly myself. Elena immediately pushes my jeans off my hips and down my legs. I step out of them when they're around my ankles and her arousal soars even higher when she sees that I've gone commando today. Then I whip the towel off her and eagerly examine her body. There are actually quite a few subtle differences between Elena's body and Katherine's as well as one major one in the form of Elena's birthmark.

As soon as my visual inspection of her body is complete, I pull her into my arms, spin us around, and back her into her bed before tumbling her into it, landing on top of her in a carefully controlled sprawl where most of my weight is resting on my arms and legs. I grind my hips against hers in a promise of what's to come and am rewarded by her eyes rolling up into her head briefly in pleasure.

I place a quick kiss on her lips before kissing my way up her jawline and down her neck. I pause at the juncture where her left shoulder meets her neck to leave her with a very obvious hickey before continuing to kiss my way down her body. The next stop I make is her breasts, pulling first her left breast into my mouth to suckle and tease while my left hand fondles her right breast. Once I have given her left breast the proper worshipping it deserves, I switch breasts to deal equal treatment to both before placing a kiss in the valley between those beautiful mounds of flesh and continuing to kiss my way down to that glorious virgin place between her legs.

Once I reach that sacred spot, I first trail my tongue over her slit to lap up the magnificent blood seeping from it. It is the most divine tasting blood I have ever had the pleasure to taste. She inhales sharply at the sensation. My dick is already aching to be inside of her but I know enough to know that I have to make this experience the best it possibly can be in order to have her running back for more in the future. I latch my mouth over her clit while gently sliding one finger into her core to begin the work of stretching her inner walls to more easily accommodate my rather large erection.

As I work her entrance with my hand, I treat her clit to all the skill I have accumulated over the decades. I soon have her gasping and mewling under my attention. By the time I'm working her core with three fingers; her walls are starting to flutter around them, signaling her oncoming orgasm. At the last second, I withdraw my fingers to lick them clean, reveling in the taste. She starts to groan in disappointment but it quickly turns to a cry of pleasure as I plunge my tongue into that special place. That is all that's needed to send her over the edge, pouring a mixture of menstrual blood and her sweet nectar into my mouth and down my throat. It takes nearly a full minute for the flow to ebb. I swirl my tongue around the entrance of her core, lapping up the excess. Then I withdraw my tongue to begin kissing my way back up her glorious body. I capture her lips as I carefully ease my dick into her at long last. And her virgin tightness is the most sacred heaven I have ever experienced. She gasps into the kiss as I pierce through that bit of flesh marking her as a virgin. Rather than trying to pull away as some virgins do, she wraps her legs around my hips and pulls me even deeper, all the way in until my pelvic bone brushes against her clit.

I rest there a moment, allowing her body to adjust to this new experience. Once the pressure around my dick eases some, I start up a pattern of slowly pulling out until just the tip of my dick is inside of her then rushing back in until my pelvic bone brushes her clit. I'm startled when she suddenly starts purring her pleasure. I've only rarely gotten that compliment of my skill. To get that sign of sexual approval from Elena is the icing on the cake of this evening.

I soon have her inner walls fluttering around my dick and I feel my own release coming on strong. But I'm determined not to fly first. By this point, my mouth is back at the spot I'm determined to leave a prominent hickey, proof that tonight really happened. I resist the temptation to sink my fangs into her flesh to taste the blood in her veins. Now is not the time for that. Perhaps on some future occasion, but not now. Besides, a bite mark would tell Stefan precisely who stole Elena's virginity. A hickey will leave it up in the air. I want to keep Stefan guessing as to who she was with tonight for a while. Though I will definitely hint at what went on tonight when I get back to the boarding house.

In the end, Elena and I take flight together as our releases occur simultaneously. The force of my release is enough to shoot stars across my vision as proverbial fireworks go off in my head. But I'm not going to stop with just one go at it tonight. I'm going to keep it up until she passes out on me. But first we both need to rest for a moment to recover from the explosive first round.

Two hours later

I smirk as I hold Elena close to me. She has a good deal of stamina, having kept up with me for nearly two hours before passing out after our last round, which was just as explosive as the first. I have never had a partner who drew consistent explosions from me, not even Katherine. I think I just might give up on freeing Katherine in favor of Elena. I sigh. As much as I want to, I can't spend the night in her bed. I want her to realize that tonight really happened when she sees the hickey I left her with in the mirror. And besides, I want to subtly rub Stefan's nose in this. Subtly because he'd damn well try to lock me up again if I made it blaringly obvious what happened tonight.

I carefully extricate myself from Elena's grasp and tuck Teddy into her arms in my place when she whimpers. She clings tightly to the stuffed bear, burying her nose in his fur. I then slip into the bathroom she shares with her brother to clean myself up before returning to her room to put my clothes back on. I hesitate briefly before placing a feather-light kiss on Elena's lips before slipping out her window and taking off for the boarding house, a smirk on my lips.

When I make it onto the property, I start whistling cheerfully. By the time I make it inside, Stefan's in the entry hall. "What have you been up to, Damon?" he demands.

"Who says I've been up to anything?" I ask.

"You wouldn't be so cheerful if you haven't accomplished something," he retorts.

"I'll just say this: the cherries are ripe for the picking tonight," I tell him.

He frowns in confusion. He's so naïve that he doesn't realize I'm talking about virgins rather than fruit. And his words prove that: "Cherries are only in season during the summer."

"That's where you're wrong, brother," I say cheerfully. "Any season can be cherry season. You just have to know how to find one that's just ripe." I start up the stairs before pausing. "It felt damn good popping tonight's cherry," I call back. "Oh, and if you see Elena, tell her I said 'hi'."

I chuckle as his confusion at what seemed like a complete topic change radiates off of him. I finish making my way to my room, a grin on my lips. This is going to be fun.

Elena

6:00 the next morning

I groan as my alarm clock goes off. I sleepily blink my eyes open and sit up, wincing as I do so. The cramps are going to be horrible, today, I can tell that much. I then look down at my body and curse myself for being so stupid as to pass out in my bed stark naked. Gonna have to change my bedding with all that blood on it. I sigh and carefully climb out of bed to begin stripping it. I then carry my bedding into the bathroom to stuff it into the laundry basket Jeremy and I use for linen. Then I go back into my room to pick out my clothes for today before returning to the bathroom. I lock both doors after I set my clothes on the counter.

I happen to glance at the mirror only for something to catch my attention. I turn fully towards the mirror and gasp in horror as I recognize the reddish spot at the juncture where my neck meets my left shoulder as a hickey. I grip the counter as my body starts trembling uncontrollably. I had thought it was just another one of those crazy dreams that my subconscious likes to give me. But this hickey is proof enough that last night really happened: I really gave my virginity to Damon. This isn't good. This really isn't good.

Before I can start hyperventilating, I reassert firm control over my body. I don't have time to start worrying about the consequences of last night. I have to get ready for school. And I'm going to have to wear a different shirt, one with a high collar. Hopefully no one will notice the hickey if I wear a shirt with a high collar.

I close my eyes and groan. I have no idea what the hell I was thinking, allowing that to happen in the first place. With a sigh of resignation, I begin getting ready.

Stefan

7:45, the high school campus, by the tree he waits for Elena

I feel a smile light up my face when I see Elena heading towards me. But as soon as she's standing next to me, I notice there's a subtle difference in her scent today. I can detect her familiar perfume, her body wash and shampoo, but something about her personal scent under those scents has changed. "Elena, are you okay?" I ask.

"I'm fine," she says. "Why?"

"Just wondering," I reply as I realize what is different about her scent. She's lost the scent of being a virgin at some point since I last saw her yesterday. It's almost like a slap in the face because I had thought we were getting close. But who would she have done that with? And why? She's been showing all the signs of being interested in me. But now she's gone and slept with someone else. Because she had a shower this morning, she had washed off any lingering scent bearing the identity of who she had been with. I turn towards the school. "Well, we should get to class."

"Okay," she says. When I don't wrap my arm around her shoulders like I have every morning before school for a few weeks now, she frowns in confusion but doesn't press the subject.

Damon

On the high school's roof

I smirk. Elena doesn't know that vampires can smell the scent change when someone loses their virginity. And Stefan's too damn polite to raise the topic to her. But Stefan's going to be treating her rather differently now that he's recognized what changed in her scent. Perfect. Thing's are going according to plan. Elena will be mine and of her own will. She just doesn't know it yet. I chuckle as they both make their way into the school. Thing's are finally going in my favor. And I plan on keeping them heading in this direction. Once Stefan and Elena walk through the doors to the school, I shape-shift into a raven and take flight. I'm going to win the girl this time around. To hell with Katherine. She was a cheat and I now see that she had planned on stringing Stefan and me along for eternity. Elena's so much better and she's going to be exclusively mine.
