Open: Nope.

Damon was happy to be back in normal Las Vegas. Well, the new-normal Vegas. He still didn't understand how this place worked or why he was there but he didn't mind the new-normal Vegas all that much. He had the pretty Elena Gilbert all to himself.

Damon hadn't fed in awhile and while it'd be easy for him to find a human to feed from, there was one human in particular that he wanted to quench his thirst. He had been feeding from Elena quite regularly and giving his blood to her when he accidentally might have taken a smidgen too much. After feeding from Elena he would compel her to forget that it happened and all the two did together was hang out. Damon got what he wanted and Elena was none the wiser to it. It was a win win, really.

Damon headed to Elena's room, he knocked on the door. He could hear her heart beat through the door and he could already taste her blood. Damon fought back his vampire instincts, crossing his arms and leaning against the door frame as he waited. Good things come to those who wait, right?

"I know you will," Elena assured him, eyes full of trust. He had watched over her when they were transported to a strange place, Elena didn't doubt that he would watch over her no mater what happened.

He didn't want her to worry about him but she did. How could she not when he was being such a protector for her? Elena wouldn't press it for now but her eyes were definitely on him, studying him. She would watch over him in exchange.

"Ummm...not too long ago. The last day or so. Why?"

He saw the trust in her eyes and he bit back a frown. If she knew that he had been using her as a source of food and making her forget about it, she likely would have a different opinion. But even if she found out and ended up hating him for it, he'd still watch over her and make sure that she was safe.

"I just though that he was dating blondie. Usually boyfriends don't bring jewellery for other women."

"He is dating Caroline," Elena nodded. "And she knows all about the necklace. He's trying to be nice, Damon. That's all." She was certain Klaus wasn't interested in her that way at all.

"I think they picked it out together." And she obviously didn't have any problems with it. Though Damon certainly did.

"Hey..." Her hand stretched for his. "It doesn't mean anything, I promise. He loves Caroline and even if he didn't I wouldn't be interested in him."

Damon briefly wondered if the necklace was Caroline's idea and Klaus facilitated it. It didn't really matter who was responsible as his fun was now ruined.

Damon watched as Elena took his hand before his eyes moved to meet Elena's. Did she think he was jealous? "I know that." Damon made scoffed, trying to make light of the situation and direct the conversation away from the fact that he definitely wasn't jealous.

"You're not interested in Mikaelson? Big, bad Original vampire?" Damon gave a small grin. "I can see why. The guy has the ego the size of the entire planet." Klaus' ego was almost as big as Damon's.

Elena's grin widened at that. "It's not the ego." Because obviously Klaus wasn't the only one with an ego. "He's just not my type." Oh sure tall, British, and very charming but even if he wasn't with Caroline there would have been something about Elena and Klaus that didn't match up.

"And he's not the person I've been spending all my time with either." If Damon caught her drift. Her other hand moved his, cupping it between hers. "You've been watching out for me. You care about me. And...it's not exactly a one-way street there."

Damon looked at Elena. He wasn't jealous. Not in the least. Maybe if he told himself that enough times he'd convince himself of that fact.

Damon curled his fingers around Elena's hand. He definitely caught her drift. "Of course I have been watching out for you Elena. I promised to keep you safe when we got here and I'll be damned if I let anything happen to you." He moved closer to her, leaving little space between the two of them, his eyes trained on hers. "You're the most important person here."

"I'm hardly the most important person here," Elena disagreed, though the smile didn't fade from her features. He was just incredibly kind to say as much. "But I do appreciate you looking out for me, Damon. It means a lot." She knew that he would never let anything happen to her.

Elena smiled up at him a moment longer before deciding to take action. Leaning in, her lips gently brushed his cheek, right at the corner of his mouth. "Thank you," she murmured.
