Ric supposed he could understand a bit of both sides of the argument. On the one hand Elena was sixteen and about to get married. On the other hand, the human Damon was applying his 19th century codes of morality to the situation, and it was not Ric's life to make decisions with. Ric wasn't stupid enough to think teenagers never had sex. And it certainly wasn't his place to tell Elena what she should or should not do. Especially given their current situation on the island. And he didn't think confronting either Elena or Damon about the issue would do anything except antagonize them and make them less likely to ask for help should they need it. Pride goeth before the fall.
Instead, Ric had decided to embrace the situation. To be a friend and to be there should anything be needed. And to that point and purpose, he'd invited the new proud father out to drinks. He was still a bit wet behind the ears, this Damon. More innocent than the others he knew. Doubtless the kid could use a drink.
He'd asked Damon to meet him at the local bar. And by the time the boy showed up, Ric was into his second drink. "Hey," he smiled, raising a hand. "Alaric Saltzman. Nice to meet you." Again.
