Elena was just wandering. She didn't know what else to do, really. With her big S.O.S. set up on the beach, and a decent fire smoking away too, her patience had run very thin when there was still no signs of life out there on the horizon or in the skies. She didn't really do 'sit and passively wait to be saved' very well, honestly, so in the afternoon she decided to take a look through the woods. After all, if she was going to survive on this island for any decent length of time she would need to eat and drink.

Shedding the small cardigan and tossing it onto the fire to get a little more smoke - she hardly needed it here, Elena practically felt like she was melting in her spot in the sun - she briefly considered changing into the one other set of clothing that she had with her, and then rather quickly decided against it. She had one other set of clothing, one. She couldn't exactly justify wasting it on her first proper day here now, could she? Still, the ridiculous shoes had to go too, and as she walked up to her backpack near the tree line she kicked the heels off in random directions. The now-dry converse shoes were a much more appropriate option for bush walking, even if the little black dress still wasn't.

Heading off in as straight a line as she could manage, Elena walked and walked until she came upon some huts and frowned. There were more people here? She thought that she and Eric were the only ones. Walking into the area with some caution, she looked around carefully for any signs of people in the vicinity. However, impatience reared its ugly head once more, and if there were people here then goddamnit she wanted a hut too! Sleeping on the sand was fun for one night, but she certainly didn't want to make a habit of it.

"Hello? Is anyone here?" she called as loud as she could, still tip-toeing through the area as though it actually mattered when she was yelling the way she was, "Who lives here? Anyone? Helloooo? Come on, someone's gotta be home!"

Damon didn't listen as Elena told him to go away--why would he start now? He continued to follow her, and when she stopped, he moved to stand in front of her, pulling her to him. He wrapped his arms around her tightly and rested his chin on her head. 'I know,' he said softly. 'So do I. Maybe at some point we'll be able to. For now... we'll do what we always do--manage.'

Elena had always been so good at staying strong, but when she felt Damon's arms around her she just thought what's the point? She heard the sound of one stifled sob before she fully realised that she had let it out, and as she pressed her face against Damon's chest she could feel herself shaking. She didn't even have the mental capacity at that moment to wonder how she felt about receiving comfort from Damon - it was a grey area she just wasn't capable of considering at that moment.

"We'll manage," she echoed, nodding and hoping Damon would choose to ignore the tears that had managed to escape even as she tried so hard to hold it together. She sucked in a sharp breath through her teeth and gripped the back of his shirt tightly, a very shaky breath following the sharp intake before she added, "We have to."

Damon kissed the top of her head and rubbed her back. He really could be sweet and caring. He'd just found with time that doing so led to being hurt. 'Yes, we do have to. But,' he said, cupping her face gently to turn her face up to look at him. 'You're smart, and brave, and strong, and... so damned resilient. It will be okay, Elena,' he said softly. 'Somehow.'

Elena smiled at him, but it was sad and clearly fake. She wasn't even really trying to make it look genuine, honestly. She brought up her hands to touch Damon's on her face, and squeezed lightly as she looked at him.

"Thank you," she said softly, and her next smile was still sad, but much warmer. She truly was glad he was there with her, even if neither of them wanted to be there, "We'll find a way to get back home, ok? It might take a while, but...we always figure it put in the end, right?"

Damon kissed Elena's forehead softly. His own smile was sad and forced, and when she said that they'd eventually find a way back home, it turned sadder.

'I hope so,' he said, his voice husky. 'But... I don't know.' He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close, needing the comfort himself, now.

"We have to, Damon. We can't stay here," she spoke against his chest as her arms wrapped tight around his waist, closing her eyes and letting out a quiet sigh. There was so much that she needed to do back at home, so many people that she would never see. The thought of being stuck here forever brought tears to her eyes again and she tipped her head up to look at Damon again.

"I'm so sorry," Elena said, her voice quiet and filled with guilt, "I'm so sorry, Damon. It's my fault you're here."

Damon rested his forehead against hers. 'We may not have a choice, Elena,' he said softly. His thumbs stroked softly over her cheeks. 'No, it's my brother's fault. And Klaus's.' He sighed and pulled her closer. 'I'm sorry that you're here, but I'm glad that I'm with you,' he confessed.

He didn't know if she'd figured out that he was in love with her. Stefan knew. But neither had told Elena, as far as he knew. 'Fuck...' he muttered and lowered his head, kissing her.

"No, if I hadn't gotten on that stupid boat, you'd still be there. If I hadn't gone after him, if I hadn't been so damn convinced that I could fix everything, or-" She was cut off abruptly by Damon's quiet curse, and then his lips met hers and for a moment she froze. This was Damon, Stefan's brother. It was Damon who she fought with tooth and nail, who had killed Jeremy, who had done so many things that she hated. But he had also been there with her through everything, this included, and she had no idea how to sum up the feelings she had for him.

While her thoughts whirred a mile a minute, she almost pulled away to say something, anything really, but she didn't. Instead she raised up slightly on the balls of her feet and kissed him back. Perhaps it was a combination of all the events that had happened lately, or it was just how she felt, but for whatever reason, instead of shoving him away like she had done once before, she just leaned closer to him and let her eyes shut as she pressed her lips back against his.

Damon didn't reply to her protestations. He was too busy kissing her, deeply and thoroughly. His hands slid to her shoulders, then around to her back, pulling her in, close, against him. 'You have no idea how I feel about you, do you?' he whispered.

Elena held onto his shirt as she leaned into the kiss, and when Damon spoke she took a moment before she opened her eyes. "I'm not totally oblivious," she murmured in response, lowering her eyes briefly, then reached up to touch his cheek lightly. "I have more of an idea now."

She wanted to kiss him again. She couldn't deny it, looking up at Damon as she bit her lower lip lightly. She felt conflicted, guilty and swallowed hard but rather than pull away like she partially wanted to, she just leant back up again and pressed a soft kiss to the corner of his mouth before speaking again, "But do you know how I feel?"

Damon stroked her face softly. 'No, you're not oblivious.' He rested his forehead against hers. 'You're confused. Conflicted. You love Stefan, but you're starting to realise that you have feelings for me, too. So you probably feel guilty, too.' he said. 'How close am I?' There was no typically-Damon cockiness to his words. It was a sincere answer.

Elena nodded, smiling wryly and sliding her hand around to rest on the back of his neck as she closed her eyes again. "You've gotta stop that mind reading trick," she joked lightly, though her voice betrayed the conflict within her even if the joke appeared light hearted. She wound her arm around his neck and pulled him in closer as she sighed and gave her head a tiny shake, forehead still resting against Damon's.

"Damon, I... I just don't know. So much has happened, and my mind is like some kind of whirlwind, and I just...I don't know, you know?" she spoke in a quick rush of words, just loud enough for him to hear as her thumb brushed lightly against the back of his neck. "I'm sorry. You're right. I mean, Stefan's...Stefan. But you're Damon, and it's all a bit..." she flapped her hands a little, and looked at him, "But I'm not sorry I kissed you."

Damon hugged her close. 'I love you, Elena,' he whispered. 'I told you once... but I made you forget. I tried... I tried to be the good brother--the noble one, and let Stefan have you. But now... I'm not going to back off, Elena. I want you. I will do whatever I have to, to win your heart,' he promised softly.

"You don't have to try to be anything Damon," Elena said, shaking her head as she held him back tightly, "I wish you hadn't. I wish I remembered you telling me, and I told you before - I like you now. I'm...I'm not going to promise you anything, because you deserve better. But you don't have to do anything to win my heart." She leaned back a fraction to look at him, taking his hand in hers as she met his eyes with a serious look.

"You have my heart, you have for a while now. I have feelings for you, I don't know if it's love, but it's there. I'm not denying it anymore," she kept her eyes on his as she spoke, squeezing his hand lightly, "Okay? I don't know where this will go, but I'm not lying to you about it anymore, and I'm not lying to myself."

'I probably shouldn't have compelled you to forget. But... I couldn't let you remember. It would've made things too weird, all around.'

He hugged her tightly, holding him to her chest. 'I'm glad you know now.' He closed his eyes and sighed. 'I'm going to go see if there are any huts available or if I'm going to have to figure out how to build one. I'll see you soon,' he said, kissing her once more and hurrying off.
