"I needed to see you. I need to talk to you Angel," he said caressing my cheek with his finger.

I wanted to be mad at him so much and part of me was, but the other just wanted to forgive him, to feel his touch on my skin, once again.

"Let's talk, but outside, there's a lot of people inside," I said coming out.

He turned and started taking steps so that I could follow him. He gestured to the car that was parked in front of our house to leave and later I saw that the people inside that car were Julian, Owen and Elijah.

"Guys, I'm going out, I'll be back," I said before trying to close the door behind me. I'm saying trying because I didn't manage to do that before the moment when Matt started screaming.

"Bay Bay do you want me to talk to that jerk? Don't go alone with that idiot, I'm coming with you," screamed in such a way that I thought the whole world heard.

Before I could answer him Damon shouted back at him a response, which was something like this.

"I heard everything and by the way dude when I said I had to see YOU I didn't mean Bailey AND YOU, or ONLY YOU. So shut up and go to sleep."

I face palmed myself because it felt like I was watching kindergarten kids fight, it was really embarrassing. Before Matt could answer something back, which I'm sure he would, this time it was Shay who interrupted the conversation.

"We know you hear us, so hear this once again, I DON'T LIKE YOU AND I WILL RUIN YOU ONE DAY, you son of a-"

"Shay it's enough," I said finally closing the door.

"Would you come with me to the Lover's Park?" asked Damon waiting for me to say something so that he could towards that direction.

I nodded not saying anything else. The park was close to our house and he didn't want to stay here because I suppose he didn't want to stay here because we had potential stalkers.

"Do you want to say something while we're on our way? Do you want to start?"

"No. I want to start talking when we reach the park," he said and moved a little faster seemingly not to make the walk any longer.

We walked for approximately 5-6 minutes and we were already there. We sat on one of the benches and I looked at him to see if he was going to start or he needed another reminder.

"Angel, I...I actually don't know where to start from. There's so much on my mind and there's so much that I want to tell you, but it feels like my thoughts are getting tangled up," he said looking at me with an expression that reminded me of a question mark.

"Maybe it's because you're drunk Damon. How much did you drink?"

"It's pleasant to hear that you still care about me," he said smiling at me and caressing my cheek once again.

"Do you think that people stop caring that easily? It's not easy to switch off really strong feelings. If people could do that, I think most of them would for sure," I said looking at him and not pushing his hand away.

"You're right. You're always right angel. How do you do that? Maybe it's not you, it's your eyes that do this to me?" he said coming closer to kiss me, but I pulled backwards. I still couldn't do this yet. I was hurt, really.

"Angel, I didn't sleep with Jenna. Trust me, I didn't. The only person I want to sleep with now is you," he said caressing my hands, which were on my thighs.

I blushed a little at his last words. I cleared my throat and continued.

"Why didn't you say something when I asked you back in the apartment?"

"I don't know. Maybe I was shocked to see her there, maybe I didn't know what I was feeling, because so many emotions were mixed up in me. I was angry that you kissed that jerk, I was hurt because I wanted our conflict to just disappear and at that moment I didn't know which one to choose," he said drawing circles with his finger on my hand.

"Good to know Damon. And I'm sorry I kissed Lucas, I don't know what got into me, maybe I was in the same situation as you were when you saw Jenna in your apartment. I was really hurt and I thought you didn't want to have me by your side. You just wanted to have me whenever you wanted, from time to time and that's it," I said looking down, avoiding his eyes.

"Hey," he said lifting my chin with his finger, "did I make you think that? Where did those stupid thoughts come from? It's not like that, it's even the total opposite, I can't wait to see you every day. What you're making me feel is so new to me that I don't even understand how to control it sometimes. Here, put your hand on my heart," he said putting my hand on his heart.

"Do you feel this heartbeat? Do you?" he asked and I nodded answering his question.

"This heartbeat is for you, it's because of you. This heart is beating only for you angel," he said still pushing my hand towards his chest.

"Damon...I..."

"Wait, don't say anything just yet," he said putting his finger on my lips so that I would be quiet.

I looked back into his eyes signaling him that he could continue.

"I'm also sorry for kissing Jenna during the game. I still don't think that it was a bad thing as it was a game, but if that hurt your feelings then I'm ready to say sorry angel," he said taking my hand in his.

He was melting my heart, just like that, with every word, with every touch. How can I be mad at him? Just how? I didn't want to be mad at him anymore, I really didn't.

"Angel, I'm not done, I'm also sorry for-"

"Damon, stop it, really, it's enough," I said putting my hands on both of the sides of his face.

"No wait, this one's the most important. I have to say it. I'm really sorry for playing you and your feelings back in high school. How stupid could I be to do that to you? HOW??? I'm still shocked at how I didn't recognize you after what I did. I don't want you to hurt because of it anymore. Of course, it would be unfair of me to ask you to forget all about those painful memories, because it's a very hard thing to do, but I just want to suggest you to replace them with the good memories that we'll create together. What do you say?" he said holding my hand.

I started crying because I waited for those words for such a long time. I was hurting for such a long time, that it just came running. I was finally emptying myself from that pain from those horrible moments of my life. I wanted to wash away all the bullying, the hate, the pain, the sarcastic laughs, and the disrespect with my tears. I was so grateful to him for the words he just said.

He started to wipe my tears with his thumbs and that's when I smiled at him and kissed him real hard. What I just loved about our kissed was that they have always been so emotional, so sensual, and I wouldn't even be afraid to say that they were full of meaning.

He broke the kiss, looked at my hand that was hurt because of the little accident at his house and started kissing every part of it. He was putting little kisses on it and it was the most beautiful feeling ever to me, that was the sweetest thing to me. Then he looked back at me from below, the smirk of his came back...Oh God how much I loved that smirk, it was driving me crazy in a bad way, but now it does the same, just in a good way.

His face came back to mine, he winked at me and his lips collapsed with mine, again. We kissed for what felt like forever and maybe it was forever.

I forgave him.
