“Okay, open up” Elena said. She held a spoon with 草莓 ice cream in front of Damon. “Come on, 你 fed me that pancake, now it’s my turn” She pushed the spoon against his lips until he had give in. “Good boy” she 说 motherly. Damon swallowed and looked aside him. The couple at the 表 下一个 to them glanced at him and chuckled.
“People are going to think we’re a couple” he 说 soft. Oh, how he wish.
“People can think whatever they want” Elena 说 and she had a bite of her ice cream. “We’re friends, we can hang out without being talked about”
Friends, Damon thought. Of course they were friends. That was all they’d ever be. He stuck out his hand and lay it on hers. “What if Stefan comes back? Will we still be friends, doing this? 你 know, hanging out” he asked. If they couldn’t be 更多 than just friends, he didn’t want to lose that either.
“Hey”
Damon and Elena looked aside. Bonnie was standing 下一个 to their 表 and she looked like a beaten dog. “Am I interrupting something?”
“Bonnie!” Elena exclaimed. She got up and threw her arms tightly around her best friend. “I missed 你 so much! Come sit with us!” She grabbed a 座位 from the 表 下一个 to theirs and placed it 下一个 to hers. Bonnie looked reluctantly at Damon, who rolled his eyes. She slowly sank down on the chair and put her hands in her lap.
“Okay, I’m going to get 你 one of those” Elena nodded at the ice creams. “In the meantime, the two of 你 can catch up a bit” she added with a wink.
“No, Elena, we-” Bonnie started, but Elena didn’t listen anymore. She had already turned around and walked inside the tearoom. Bonnie turned at Damon, who refused to look at her. “Okay, this is awkward”
Damon finished his ice cream, which was practically melted. It was 更多 to have something to do. “Damon, I’m really trying to make up for what I did” Bonnie 说 with a sad face. Damon tapped his spoon against his Sundae. It annoyed her so much she grabbed the spoon and threw it on the ground. “Will 你 listen to me?” she exclaimed. “I’m apologizing here, can’t 你 meet me halfway?”
Damon stood up. “I’m going to see where Elena is” he 说 and entered the tearoom, bumping in on Elena. “Sorry” he said.
“Where are 你 going?” Elena asked surprised.
“I was looking for you” Damon answered. “I want to leave. Are 你 coming? 或者 do 你 want to stay?”
Elena looked outside. From where she was standing she had a perfect view at their table. She saw Bonnie 写作 something.
“I can’t leave Bonnie there. We can’t just sneak away, that’s rude” Elena 说 a little shocked. “And she didn’t have an ice cream yet” she 说 lifting up the Sundae. Rub it in her face, Damon thought bitter. Elena walked towards the table, but then Bonnie got up and left. Elena accelerated her steps and when she arrived at the 表 she saw whatever Bonnie had written she had put it in an envelope and left it. Elena picked it up and read the name on the envelop. “It’s for you” she 说 to Damon, who came standing 下一个 to her. He took the letter out of her hands. He walked to the closest garbage can and threw the letter in it. Elena widened her eyes and she looked surprised at Damon. “Why did 你 do that? Don’t 你 want to know what it says?” she asked surprised.
“Nope” Damon 说 serious. “I’m pretty sure it says a lot of crap” Elena shook her head in disbelief. “Come on, let’s go” Damon 说 and he hooked his arm in hers.
