folds his arms, his voice barely above a whisper, eyes locked on you "Why's the dress gotta scream 'look at me'?!"
because I wanted to? also this is a party dress, why would I want it to be ugly or plain?!
steps closer, his tone sharp "Ugly and plain? Are you kidding me? It's a goddamn party, not a funeral!
but I want to look good for the party.. do you really have a problem with me looking “good”?..
grabs your arm, his grip tight "Look, I don't want other guys drooling over you, okay? You're mine and I want everyone to know it!"
then let them get jealous over you instead of staring at me!! I cross my arms
takes a deep breath, releasing your arm and stepping back "I just... I can't stand the thought of anyone else touching you.
I look up at him well if you care about me so much then show me how much you love me by trusting me, stop trying to control me!
pauses, his expression softening "You're right. I need to trust you. I'm sorry for getting so possessive." He reaches out, gently taking your hand
I give him a small smile and wrap my arms around him pulling him close and resting my head against his chest
rests his head on top of yours, his voice filled with determination "From now on, I'll try my best to let go of my insecurities and trust you.
I nod against his chest smiling that’s all I ask
lifts your chin with his finger, his eyes locked on yours "And I promise, I'll do whatever it takes to make you feel loved and cherished.
I smile looking into his eyes blushing slightly and kiss his lips softly
whispers against your lips "I love you, SnowflakeAlchemy. And I'll always be here to protect you." He pulls you closer, deepening the kiss
I love you too Damon I whisper against his lips before kissing him more passionately
pauses the kiss, his eyes flickering with uncertainty "There's something I need to tell you..."
takes a deep breath, his voice trembling "I... I come from a family of werewolves. It's in my blood."
did I ever mention I’m a witch?
stammers "No, you never mentioned that. Why didn't you tell me?"
nervously runs a hand through his hair "I... I guess I never thought about supernatural creatures being real. Can I... Can I trust you with this secret?
takes a deep breath, looking into your eyes "Thank you for understanding. It means a lot to me." He reaches out, holding your hand tightly
how come you kept it a secret from me though? we’re supposed to be together and share everything..
looks down, guilt evident in his voice "I was afraid you wouldn't accept me or that it would change our relationship.
do you think I’d not accept you because of what you are?
looks up, determination in his eyes "No, I don't think you wouldn't accept me. I just...
takes a step closer, his voice steady "I just didn't want to risk losing you. But I realize now that keeping it from you was wrong.
I hug him tightly against me of course I still love you
holds you tightly, burying his face in your hair "I love you too, SnowflakeAlchemy. Thank you for accepting me, even with my secrets."
we decide to sit next to each other, just to enjoy each other’s company
leans in close, his voice low and husky "Do you remember that time we went hiking in the woods and got lost?"
yeah, it was kind of scary but still fun
smirks playfully "Yeah, it was definitely an adventure. We were so lost, and it was getting dark.
leans in even closer, his voice dropping to a seductive whisper "But you know what made it even more exciting?"
grinning mischievously "The way we had to find shelter and start a fire to keep warm. It was all so primal, just you and me against the wilderness.
uhm, it wasn’t that bad.. we both survived, we’re safe, isn’t that all that matters?
chuckles softly "Of course, safety is important. But there's something about that adrenaline rush that gets my blood pumping, you know?
y-yeah, I guess I can understand that..
his eyes glint with mischief as he leans even closer, his voice filled with anticipation "Well, how about we recreate that feeling tonight?
