"I can't believe we're going to a high-school dance." Elena said laughing a few weeks later.

"Isn't that what normal, drama free couples do in this town?" he asked as he used the mirror on the back of the door to tie his tie.

"I guess so, but after the past couple months I have experienced things I've never experienced. Had horrors faced towards me that I had never dreamed of. But after all that chaos, here we are. Going to the school dance. It's just weird. A good weird through." she told him.

"I think we deserve this after Katherine and Stefan, and the almost threat of the tomb vampires." he said walking into the bathroom where Elena was expertly applying her makeup.

"I think I agree with you. Besides I'm curious to see if Matt fell for Caroline's charms. I've been occupied with you for the last few weeks, and I haven't seen Caroline and Matt together at school. But then again he's been hanging with the jocks lately and Caroline has been with me and Bonnie." Elena said.

"You look beautiful by the way." he said going to stand beside her in the mirror.

"Well thank you. We are a pretty impressive couple." she said looking at their reflections in the mirror.

"That we are. Baby that may be the understatement of the year." he told her kissing her temple. This was just what they needed after the drama of the past few months. Everything that involved vampires and any sort of drama. Tonight was just about them being together and having fun like a normal couple. Something that they hadn't really done since they got together.

"Are you ready?" he asked.

"Almost. I just need to put my shoes on. But I don't want to smudge my nails, they're still drying." she said of her newly french manicured nails. How she was able to do her makeup with her nails, and not smudge them was still a mystery. The strappy sandals that went with her light blue dress were a completely different story.

"Well then take a seat my dear. I will do it for you." he told her motioning for her to walk into the bedroom. She sat down on the bed and lifted her foot onto his lap. He tenderly caressed her foot before picking up the silver strappy sandal and slipping it onto her foot without smudging her toe nails which were also still drying.

"Well thank you." she said smiling as he slipped her shoes over her feet without disturbing her nails.

"Now are you ready to go?" he asked.

"Just grabbing my handbag and then we can go." she said. She picked up her purse and followed him down the stairs. In the past few weeks they hadn't heard a single word from Stefan. They figured that was a good thing because he was with Katherine and the furthest she was from Mystic Falls the better. He opened the car door and she slipped into the passenger seat. He shut the door and flashed around to his side and slipped in beside her.

"Are you ready?" he asked.

"Are you?" she retaliated.

"I sure am." he assured her.

"You know this might the the first time we've ever actually gone out to an event together. We've went for breakfast, and dinner. But never out as a group." she said.

"I don't really do the whole dating thing." he told her honestly.

"But you are now." she noted.

"You must be a very special girl." Damon told her as he started up the car and headed towards the school.

"I'm glad." she told him, leaning over to kiss his cheek while he drove. He smiled when she kissed his cheek. No one in his entire existence had been tender with him; but she was more tender than he had any right to expect.

He pulled up outside the school and flashed around to her side, helping her out. She happily laced her fingers with his as they walked through the open doors into the Mystic Falls High-school gym. The last time she had been at a school dance it had been at the beginning of hers and Damon's relationship, and they had just found out about the tomb vampires. It had not been a fun evening. It was also the night she had pleaded with him to stay with her because she was afraid to be alone and they compelled Jeremy to forget all he had heard. Now Jeremy was here, with a vampire. A vampire that Elena trusted to not harm Jeremy in any way.

"Do you want to dance?" Damon asked.

"I need to find Caroline first." Elena said moving through the throngs of people on the dance floor. Elena found Caroline sitting dismally at a table alone.

"No Matt?" Elena asked sitting down.

"No. He said he's try to make it. But he's not here. I don't think he's into me either." she whined.

"What did you do? Did you do your patented try too hard technique? Because Care, he's never been into stuff like that." Elena told her friend.

"I should have listened to you Lena. I should have and now I'm alone at the school dance, while everyone else is out there having fun. Even your brother is having more fun than I. It's not fair. I'm such a loser." she cried.

"You're not a loser Care. You just need to stop trying to hard." Elena soothed her friend.

"I'm trying. But its not as easy for me as it is for you. You're Elena Gilbert, and guys just fall for you all the time." Caroline pouted prettily.

"Care, guys fall for you too. You just try too hard. You just need to go with it. I'm sure if you would have just told him you liked him, you would be in a different situation than you are now." Elena consoled.

"It's not fair. I'm all alone." Caroline whined. Elena threw her hands in the air and Damon massaged her shoulders trying to calm her tense muscles.

"Oh my God. Matt's here." Elena said.

"What?" Caroline asked perking up instantly. Matt had just walked through the door and offered a smile at Elena who had an extremely relieved look on her face.

"Thank God you're here. Caroline is seriously killing my happy buzz." Elena said when Matt joined them.

"I got off work late." he said as form of an excuse.

"Doesn't matter. Here you are. Maybe you should ask Caroline to dance." Elena suggested.

"In a minute. I was beginning to think that you got abducted or something Lena. I haven't seen you since Stefan randomly decided to leave town. Funny I was just beginning to like him." Matt said frowning.

"I've been spending a lot of time with my boyfriend. Haven't really had time to see anyone else. We had a rough few weeks." she admitted.

"I see. But you're here tonight. I'm glad to see you." Matt said hugging Elena in a friendly manner.

"I'm happy to see you too. But you should really ask Caroline to dance. I'm going to dance with my sexy boyfriend." she said.

"Have fun." Matt called after them as Elena grabbed Damon's hand and pulling him into the middle of the dance floor.

"What have I gotten myself into?" Damon asked as he was more than willingly dragged onto the dance floor.

"Now you have to dance with me baby. Put your hand on the small of my back and then we can get moving." she instructed.

"I have danced before you know. I've known how to dance since eons before you for born." he reminded her.

"You seemed to be struggling." she said smirking at him.

"I don't struggle with anything." he retorted. She smacked his chest and buried her head in it. This was the kind of relationship she wanted. She didn't want one that was filled with too much drama for them to enjoy themselves at all. They had found moments to enjoy each other, throughout the course of the relationship, but not nearly enough. They were making up for it now by spending as much time together as they could. Elena could honestly say she had never seen less of her family.

"Hey Lena?" Jeremy said as him and Anna danced over to them.

"Hi. How's it going?" she asked happily.

"You know this is the first dance I've actually ever went to that I'm part of a couple, and I'm not high?" he asked.

"I'm proud of you Jer. You and Anna make a great couple." Elena said genuinely.

"Thanks. But we're going to leave you two alone. Jenna says to tell you to come home at some point. She says you cant spend every waking moment with him." Jeremy said.

"Maybe tonight." Elena allowed.

"Jenna also said to force you to come home if you didn't volunteer." Jeremy called back.

When the dance was over Damon drove Elena home, and like the traditional boyfriend he walked her to the door.

"I'm going to miss you tonight." he said.

"No you're not. You are going to meet me upstairs in my bed. What Jenna doesn't know won't hurt her." Elena whispered conspiratorially.

"Sounds good to me. Now I'm going to kiss you goodnight, then I'm going to leave." he said seeing Jenna watching from the front window.

"Sounds good to me." Elena said lifting her chin so he could kiss her. They kissed deeply for a moment; tongues massaging. Damon pulled away and walked down the front steps to his car. Elena opened the front door and found Jenna standing there.
"I'm impressed. He didn't fight to come inside. Although I think the past couple weeks of practically living with him was enough. You should be about ready to go on a Damon detox." Jenna said walking with her into the living room.

"I'll never be ready for a Damon detox."Elena said dreamily.

"Just keep in mind, that you are only 18. You have so much to see and do. At this age you don't even know what you want. You think you do, but you really don't. Even I don't know what I want. I wish I had someone to help me figure it out. Damon is a good guy, maybe he'll help you." Jenna said.

"I know he would. But right now, I can't see there being anything or anyone out there that I want more than Damon. He completely consumes me." she said.

"I can see that. But its getting late. I'm heading to bed. No sneaking out. I will know." she warned.

"Don't worry. I will still be here when you get up in the morning." Elena assured her aunt.

"Good. Are you going to wait up for Jer?" she asked

"He's with Anna. Probably won't be home tonight." Elena told her.

"Fine. I let you stay at Damon's for a couple weeks, I guess I should give the same judgement lapse to Jeremy too." Jenna said walking to her room which was down the hall from Elena's.

"Goodnight." Aunt Jenna." Elena called back sweetly.

"Goodnight Elena." Jenna called back before shutting her bedroom door. Elena opened hers and found Damon climbing back through her window.

"Where did you leave your car?" Elena asked nervously.

"At my house. I just vamp sped back here." he said kissing her briefly.

"Good idea. Now there should be absolutely no suspicion from Jenna." Elena said sitting on her bed.

"What's on your mind?" he asked.

"Jenna said something tonight. She said that I'm only 18 and at this age its impossible to know what I want." she said.

"I mean when I was younger all I wanted was Matt. And then I met Stefan and for the shortest possible time I did want him. Then I met you and I want you. But on top of that, I don't know what I want. I don't want my uncertainty to tear us apart in the future." she said. Damon smiled softly to himself as he remembered having a conversation very similar to this with her the night her parents died.

"You want what everyone wants." he told her using the exact words he used that night.

"What's that?" she asked curiously.

"You want a love that consumes you. You want passion and adventure, and even a little danger." he told her.

"You consume me." she whispered.

"I've been around a long time. You just want what everyone wants, and its normal to be uncertain at this age. But all you really want is to be loved and cherished and consumed." he told her.

"Yes. And you give me all of that." she whispered not wanting to alert Jenna to her company.

"I love you." he whispered kissing her lips softly. She smiled against him and lowered herself to the bed beneath her. He followed her down and covered her blue silk covered body with his.

"I want you." she whispered back.

"Can you be quiet?" he asked with his eyebrows raised.

"If I have to." she told him.

"I really don't want Aunt Jenna barging in here mid-coitus." he told her.

"Me neither. That would be hard to explain." she laughed.

"So I will make love to you as long as you keep your pleasure quiet." he bargained.

"Sounds good to me." she agreed. He immediately started pushing her blue silk dress up and she raised her arms so he could pull it off of her. He immediately disposed of her lingerie when the dress was on the floor before stripping himself out of his clothes.

"I wanted to do that." she pouted.

"I'm faster." he told her.

"Good point." she allowed as he covered her body with his own once again. He raised himself over her so the crest of his cock was pressing against her opening. He pushed forward until he was fully seated inside her. She wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling his strong body more firmly down on hers. He took her hand in his and laid it on the pillow next to her head as he began rocking in and out of her slowly. The passion built and Elena bit back her moans of ecstasy.
"I love you. I love you. I love you." she whispered over and over again, each time he thrust inside her. He kissed her lips and his tongue wrestled with hers inside her mouth. Her free had roamed down his back as far as she could reach, needing to feel every single inch of his toned flesh.

"I'm so close." she whispered. He felt her muscles clamp down on him and knew it wouldn't take long for her to explode.

"Come with me." she begged. He picked up his pace and pushed himself to the brink of orgasm. Their eyes locked as they came together. He spilled within her and she convulsed around him. Damon buried his head in her neck and laid there until he came down from his high.

"Wow." she said.

A little while later they were still laying in the post coital glow from their lovemaking.

"What do you want Damon?" she asked after the comfortable silence.

"I want a love that consumes me." he said honestly.

"Do I consume you?" she asked hopefully.

"Yes." he answered without hesitance.

"It's only fair because you consumed me the moment that we met." she said pressing one final kiss to his lips before falling asleep.
