Caroline had convinced Elena to leave the house to enjoy the summer weather. “Just because that cagna is visiting te doesn’t mean te should stay inside” And so they walked around the streets. random streets. It was a total coincidence they ended up at Alaric’s loft, seeing Alaric and Damon working, shirtless, it was hot. The weather. Elena crossed the street, while Caroline walked further.
“Hey, Caroline!”
Caroline looked around when she saw Alaric waving. She flashed to them. “You couldn’t tell me?“ she asked Elena. Elena pulled her shoulders. “Sorry” “Mind if I get one of these?” Caroline asked, looking at the gabbia, cassa underneath the tavolo with tools. “Sure, go ahead” Ric said.
“Can I have one?” Elena asked.
“No, sorry, you’re not old enough, Elena” Alaric said. He accepted the birra Caroline handed to him. She gave one to Damon too. Elena tried to swipe it from him, but he held it high above her head.
“Elena, can I talk to you?” Alaric demanded and before she could answer he pulled her away from Damon. Damon already knew what Alaric wanted to talk about and he shut the hood. He turned around and leaned against the car, taking a sip from his beer. Caroline came standing successivo to him, reaching out a small box. Still drinking Damon looked at the box out the corner of his eye. “What’s that?” he asked as he put the bottle down on the roof. “Painkillers” Caroline explained. “I told Elena she can only have one each day, but I don’t trust her with it. Can te keep these with you?”
Damon accepted the box and put it in his pocket. Then he looked back ahead.
“What is she doing here?”
Caroline looked and saw Bonnie standing just outside the garage.
“Hey”, Bonnie shyly said. “Can I talk to you?”
“No” Damon detto short.
“I wasn’t talking to you” Bonnie replied cold. She looked sharp at Caroline.
“Eh, yeah, sure” Caroline detto confused and she followed Bonnie to the other side of the street.
“Was that Bonnie?” Elena asked, who took Caroline’s place. Damon nodded and grabbed his beer, before Elena could take it. “Oh, come on, just let me have one sip, one. I just want to know how it tastes”
Damon let out a deep sigh, seeing no way out. “Alright, just a sip” he gave. He put his finger in the opening of the bottle and capsized it. Then he held it against Elena’s lips and slowly smeared them. When he wanted to take away his hand Elena took it and stuck his finger slowly in her mouth. Then she lay her hand in Damon’s neck and pulled him closer. She pressed her lips on his. She grabbed his hair and Damon gently pushed her down on the hood. His hands slowly searched their way up, while he kissed Elena’s jaw line. Elena pinched her nails in Damon’s back and curled up against him. She pulled up her knees and threw her legs around Damon’s waist.
“Elena?” she heard Damon say. “You’re drooling”
Elena blinked and shook her head. She wiped her mouth, avoiding Damon’s stare. Instead she focused on Caroline and Bonnie, wondering what they were talking about.
“I know he hates me and he has every right to” Bonnie cried. “But I can’t forget him. I tried so hard, but I can’t”
“I thought te hated him” Caroline frowned. “And even if, your family would never approve”
“I know! They would never forgive me, but I can’t help the way I feel” Bonnie said. “What does it matter, he won’t talk to me anyway”
“Well, why did te have to jinx Elena?” Caroline detto a little helpless.
“I just wanted to make her happy again!” Bonnie explained. “She’s been through so much and I wanted her to be happy. She’s been crying over Stefan’s departure and everything that’s happened to her. I just wanted to conjure a smile on her face. I never meant for things to get out of control”
Caroline sighed and looked at the other side of the street, where Damon and Elena were taking pictures with Elena’s phone.
“She has Stefan” Bonnie said, knowing what Caroline was thinking. “They’re going through a hard time right now, but they’ll work it out. They have to, they belong together. Elena can’t have both”
Caroline averted her head back to Bonnie. “May I ask where this sudden change of cuore comes from? te hated him and now you’re crushing on him?”
“A lot has happened while te were gone, Caroline” was all Bonnie said.
