Damon was your dream man. I mean, it shocked even you, but you were hooked from the start.

𝘿𝘼𝙏𝙄𝙉𝙂 𝘿𝘼𝙈𝙊𝙉 𝙎𝘼𝙇𝙑𝘼𝙏𝙊𝙍𝙀 𝙒𝙊𝙐𝙇𝘿 𝙄𝙉𝘾𝙇𝙐𝘿𝙀… • Him calling you “trouble” before you even start dating—half annoyed, half turned on, fully obsessed. • Snarky arguments where you’re both secretly flirting but pretending to be pissed. • Him appearing in your bedroom window at 2AM with a bottle of bourbon like, “You miss me or should I come back later?” • You rolling your eyes at his dramatic entrances but lowkey smiling the second he turns away. • The eye contact. The kind that pins you in place, makes your stomach drop, and has you forgetting your name. • Intense makeouts that leave you dizzy and laughing afterward because he’s so smug about it. • “You’re mine.” Growled into your skin, whispered into your hair, said like a warning—but it always sounds like a promise. • Him teaching you how to throw a punch in case he’s not around—then immediately saying “just kidding, I’ll always be around.” • Neck kisses that go on way too long and always end with you pulling away first—because he likes the chase. • Holding your hand under the table when you’re around the group. Tapping twice to say “I’m here,” and once to say “you okay?” • Him fighting every instinct in his body to protect you without smothering you. Even when it kills him. • He’d never say it out loud, but he memorizes all your little habits. The way you sip your drink, the look on your face when you’re overthinking, the scent of your shampoo. • You calling him out when he gets too reckless. “You don’t always have to self-destruct, Damon.” And he goes quiet because… you’re right. • That rare, real smile he only gives when you’re the one walking into the room. • Him literally shoving people behind you in fights, shielding you with his body without even thinking. • You dragging him out of bed at 10am and him groaning, “You’re lucky I love you.” • “I don’t do the whole soft thing,” he mutters, and then five minutes later he’s tucking a blanket around you while you sleep. • Being the only person he’s genuinely afraid of losing. (And his brother ofc) • The Salvatore house always mysteriously having your favorite snacks… even if he says it’s a coincidence. • The world thinking he’s heartless, but he pours every ounce of love he has into you—so recklessly, so fully, it scares even him.
