"I ain't going over there this year, why don't you take Ariel instead?" I casually tossed the opportunity over to Ariel, with my hands tucked into my coat pockets I believed she could use this chance.
Damon's forehead creased creating a small mountain peak, and his eyes held a complex mixture of emotions. It was not quite outright displeasure, but a kind of restrained dissatisfaction.
"We're not getting a divorce. I'll take care of Ariel's situation"

"Damon, quit pulling my leg. Don't give me empty promises. No, they can't even be considered promises "I calmly rejected him.
I turned to go inside, but Damon grabbed my arm.
"Let me try" He pleaded for the first time.
