'Here I am in a place I didn't want to be, getting ready to do something I would have never done a year ago with people I don't know, life really is funny sometimes'
Damon sits in his car, which he had jasmine recover, and gets sent to him over the last week, currently in front of the Cullen house waiting for Rosalie so they can go to school.
After that night of questioning from the Cullens, who did not believe him about his strength level, he stayed in a hotel and used some money to buy a house in forks.
For the past week, he and Rosalie made no significant progress in their relationship of it could even be called such.
They both seek to be in each other proximity but would seem to have trouble taking their relationship to advance any further, as of the moment they for whatever reason the relationship has not advanced not even a date.
I the car Damon finally sees Rosalie exit the house and the rest of the family following behind her before going into their respective vehicles and leaving as they do so he watches them with a different gaze for each that held different feeling behind each, as his opinion of them has been set based on what happened the night after he saved them, they thought he had left and proceeded to discuss him further.
Flashback
"Let's put it like this even in my weakest form which I'm currently in even if all the vampires in the world attacked me I would survive and kill them all."
"....."
There was no response, but Damon didn't need one the look on their face said it all, they did not believe him, or simply couldn't, they have lived most of their lives thinking they were the strongest creatures on the earth, and could only be killed by another of their race, now to hear one person could solo their whole race would shock them, actually if they believed him right away Damon would think they were either stupid or too trusting.
"Do you even know how many vampires there are in the whole world?" Asked Carlisle
"Of course not, that's just how confident I am." Answered Damon
"And we are supposed to just believe this?" Asked Edward
"If you want, I guess."
"LIsten I never asked you all to trust or believe me for all you know all I told you was a lie, disregard the information if you want." Answered Damon as he started to get annoyed.
"Damon calm down."
Perhaps feeling his emotion through their bond Rosalie calls out to him, and it works as HE looks at her and all the annoyance he felt disappeared and he sighed.
"I think this will be it for tonight, I'm still a little hyper so I am going to leave as I still need to organize a place to stay and some other thing as I left where I was in a hurry, as you would expect." Says Damon coming up with a good excuse to leave.
"Yes, I think that's best, as I'm sure everyone is still a little shaken." Says Carlisle
"Right then."
Damon turns to leave, one step away from jumping back into the forest he hears.
"You'll be back right?" An unsure voice asks
Hearing this Damon comes to a halt, and turns to look at Rosalie.
"I won't leave, I'll see you tomorrow."
"Okay." She says as he disappears into the forest.
"....."
After Damon left the Cullens family did not move and kept waiting, trying to see if he really is gone, after standing there for ten minutes and finally feeling that he left they started talking.
"What should we do now."
"We can't trust him, he already put us in danger once, what to say it won't happen again."
"What do you guys mean, it was a mistake," answered Rosalie
"Rosalie we need to think about our family, and right now he is an unknown and a very dangerous person that could endanger our family."
"I think we should give at least a bit of trust for saving us, after all, he didn't have to."
"That's true, but he put us in danger in the first place, so is it really worth it to trust him?"
"So Edward's little infatuation with the human girl, won't put us in danger or is just more worth it to risk this family for him and not me," Rosalie asks angrily.
"Calm down Rosalie, this isn't the same thing." Says Carlisle.
"Oh, how is it not, they are both our mates and provide some sort of danger for this family yet, this family is only willing to take that risk for Edward?" Asks Rosalie angrily.
"..."
Quiet enveloped them as Carlisle was unable to respond.
"Sigh"
What they didn't know was Damon Hadn't left and was in fact listening to their conversation from a distance, and hearing their thoughts on him, shook his head.
'I find it really funny all the trouble they are willing to go through for Edward to be with Bella, even going to war with the Volturi, and they can't even do something this simple for Rosalie, I wonder if I should kill them?"
'It's a good thought but it won't work out she would be too sad.'
Coming to this and hearing their conversation unlikely to continue he turns and leaves.
Flashback Ends
"Damon let's go."
Looking over at Rosalie now in his car he smiles.
"Sorry sorry, just lost in thought."
As they drive to school Rosalie asks him a question.
"Are you sure you want to do this?"
"It's fine, I want to spend more time with you and since you have school all day this is the best way to do it."
"I'm sure you realized we haven't made any progress in our relationship, so how about we finally go on a date."
"..."
"Really??" Rosalie asks with a voice full of joy.
"Of course, you sound like you thought I would never ask."
"After all, you took so long, and...."
"And?"
"And I could feel all your emotions from the mate bond remember." She says to him
"..."
'What does feeling my emotion through the bond have to do with anything.'
Screeching Screeching!!
The car suddenly slides to a stop, as Damon turns to look at Rosalie with a look of regret.
