“So this is where Damon and I first met” Elena said standing in the entrance hall.
“Interesting” Caroline said. “Come on, let’s get outside” She grabbed Elena’s hand and dragged her outside.
While Caroline and Elena were having fun outside, Damon was in the kitchen slicing the cake. The cake had been another idea of Caroline. Both Damon and Elena thought it was a little too much, but Caroline was not easy to say no to.
Damon felt how someone was watching his back and he turned around seeing Alaric in the doorway. He turned around again and carried on with the cake.
“You need help with that?” Alaric tried to start a conversation. “You can put the slices on the plates” Damon said, waving the knife. Alaric walked to the cupboard and got out all the plates that were in there. “Do you even have enough cake? There are quite some people out there” he said trying to sound casual.
“Probably not” Damon shrugged. “Whoever’s the quickest gets a piece” He put down the knife, but still avoided to look at Alaric. “I’m sorry”
“It wasn’t your fault” Alaric said feeling uneasy.
“I shouldn’t have stabbed Jeremy. It was a jackass thing to do” Damon said. “You trusted me and I almost got the most important person in your life killed”
Alaric shook his head and waved his hand to make Damon shut up. “It wasn’t your fault” he repeated. “You tried to tell me. You said you didn’t want to do it, you didn’t mean to. I should’ve listened to you. I should’ve realized something was wrong. I shouldn’t have thrown you out”
“I was bounded by Bonnies spell and Stefan was helping her” Damon said. “They would’ve found me anyway. You just reacted the way every father would react”
“Well, I’m still sorry” Alaric said.
“Apology accepted” Damon smirked and he stuck out his hand, which Alaric accepted.
“Moron” Alaric mumbled, but with a grin.
“We’re almost there, Elena”
Damon and Alaric turned around and saw how Caroline was helping Elena inside.
“What happened?” Damon asked worried.
“Nothing” Elena annoyed and she tried to push Caroline away.
“She got dizzy” Caroline explained.
“I had a few drinks” Elena said.
“One, Elena, you had one beer” Caroline said. She pulled her friend further into the kitchen.
“I just need to eat something” Elena said with a look at the cake. Damon took two plates of cakes and followed Caroline and Elena into the sitting room.
Caroline helped Elena on the couch and sank down on her left side, Damon on her right side. “Can I get you something?” Caroline asked sweet. Elena shook her head. “No, I’m good” “Alright, then” Caroline said. She looked at Damon. “Take good care of her” “Don’t worry, she’s in good hands” Damon assured the blonde girl and Caroline and Alaric left them alone.
“Can you tell me what happened now?” Damon asked still a little worried.
“Caroline and I were dancing when I got dizzy” Elena said. “It’s nothing. I’m fine” she tried to reassure her overly worried boyfriend. She leaned forward and took one of the plates. She pulled a bit of cake and smeared it around Damon’s lips. She leaned forward and licked the cake off his face. While they kissed Damon grabbed the other cake with his hand and smashed it in Elena’s neck. “Aaaah!” Elena shrieked. “Damon, you son of a bitch!” Damon leaned to her neck and kissed it, eating the cake. “Ah, that tickles!” Elena giggled. “Stop it! …No, stop it, Damon!” she laughed.
