Love is a Four Letter Word (For itconsumesher)

[prodigalsavior]

Every now and then, the constriction of the village tightened around him until he wanted to throw something through a wall. It wasn't often--for the most part he'd learned to be content in his three years here--but when it happened, it was like a restless burning he couldn't shake.

He was a vampire, a predator. Once upon a time, he'd been death lurking in the shadows. He took what he wanted. He didn't ask for permission.

And now...well, on several levels, yes, he had everything he wanted. People weren't happy about it, but so far no matter how badly he acted, no matter how far he pushed against the boundaries, no one snapped back. He didn't know what to make of that. Shouldn't they be snapping back? Shouldn't someone be drawing lines?

Granted, he was all ready to rip through the lines already drawn, as well as someone's throat. He remembered the last real taste of fear he'd had, the night he and Rebekah had hunted those girls through the club, and he shivered just a bit. Biting his lower lip, he sent her a message.

My room. Now. I have a plan.

She nodded ever so slightly, her fingers sweeping over the small of his back. "Yes. You and I are a lot alike." She murmured. Truthfully, she had a long list of reasons as to why she would choose him.

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

He nodded a little. "We really are," he agreed. His fingers swept up to cradle her cheek, fingers lightly teasing in her hair.

Lifting her head, she tilted it back to look up at him as his fingers teased through her hair, causing her to shiver a little again. Her eyes trailed over his features before she leaned up to kiss him again, not wanting to let go even long enough to walk back to the hotel.

Damon watched her back for a moment, then kissed her again, fingers trailing up to bury more thoroughly in her hair, holding her close against him.

Breaking away from the kiss, she offered a little smile. "Race you back to the hotel?"

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

Damon laughed slightly, but nodded. "Sounds fun."

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

Rebekah smirked without responding and disappeared before he could do much else. She only stopped when she got to the hotel, pausing outside the door as she twisted back to look for him.

He pushed himself to follow her, but she had a head start and was twice his age. Still, he wasn't just a second or two behind her, shaking his head as he came to a stop.

Rebekah smirked a little as he stopped in front of her. "What?"

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

"I think you cheated," he said, leaning in to steal a kiss.

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

"Do you think I'd do something like that?" She tilted her head slightly, kissing him back as she slid her fingers into his hair again.

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

"Mmhmm....oh, absolutely," he murmured against her lips. "What was it you wanted to do here...?"

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

Suddenly she smirked a little more, pulling back. "We need to go to your room."

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

"I like where this is heading," he said with a smirk.

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

"I thought you might." She chuckled, leaning in to kiss him again before she pulled away completely. "Come on, let's go up."

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

Damon nodded a little, taking her hand to lead her to the elevator, smirking a bit in memory, which he likely would do for a while now.

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

"I can guess what you're thinking about." Rebekah replied with a smug little look, leaning back against the elevator wall.

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

"Are you telling me you aren't?" he asked, moving over to her to steal a kiss.

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

"I'm thinking about a repeat some time in the future." She slid her arms around his waist, kissing him back again.

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

"We should take regular elevator rides," he said against her lips, smiling a bit.

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

"Mmm, I agree." She nodded, snaking a hand up to tug sharply at his hair, pulling his head back as she leaned in to playfully nip at his neck just as the elevator doors slid open. "But, for now, let's go to your room."

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

Damon shivered at the nip, eyes darkening, but he shifted a bit away at her words. "Yes, m'lady," he said with a bit of a smirk, moving off the elevator.

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

She smirked as she enjoyed the way his eyes darkened, sliding past him after she let go. "Very good, m'lord." Walking down the hall to his room, she glanced over with an interested look. "Do you trust me?"

[prodigalsavior.livejournal.com]

"Impeccably," he assured her, fishing out his key when they got to his door. He opened it, and let her precede him into the room.

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

"So you would let me tie you up?" She asked it so casually as she entered his room, immediately peeling off her jacket to toss it onto the couch.
