“As do I. Sometimes it’s a wonder I can stand to be around other women my age. They’re often comparing households and hats and gowns when I’d much rather be discussing the latest novel.”

“So what do you think of households? What I mean is, if you had a husband, what would you want most in your life at that point?” he asked her, honestly curious. She could travel the world if she was his wife...he’d just want to accompany her.

Caroline smiled as they walked, however, once they arrived to her home she was dissapointed that they had to part ways. Looking at her house and then at the sky, she knew her parents will be coming back soon. 
“Yes, please. Tomorrow morning would be perfect“. She didn’t want this moment to just end like this, so she got an idea. “But first, come! Just for a moment, I need to give you something“, she said as she took his hand and pulled him towards the back entrance to the house. 

Damon chuckled as she grabbed his arm and pulled him around the building. He stopped her then, as they were out of sight, and took a chance and kissed her softly.

He didn’t hold her too tightly, allowing her the option of pushing him away if she didn’t want this just yet. But he couldn't help himself. He’s been in love with her for ages.

Damon laughed at her and gently grabbed her hand, kissing it. “I look forward to laughing with you for as long as you will have me, Caroline…”
He pulled her closer, and slipped into a basic waltz, moving to music that wasn’t really there.
“May I escort you to town tomorrow?” he wondered, “We could have something to eat and just walk around. Spend some time together officially.”

She smiled when she accomplished her mission and made him laugh, feeling her cheeks heating up when he kissed her hand but her smile didn’t diminished. Instead she giggled as he pulled her into his arms and guide her into a waltz. Placing her hand on his shoulder and following his lead. 

“I would love to have you as my escort tomorrow or any other day, Damon“, she looked into his eyes and felt her heart fluttering in her chest. She never thought a simple walk could end up making her to incredibly happy and all thanks to him. 

“Good,” Damon said with a small smile, “I would love to escort you anywhere you may need to go, and on any given day.”

He slowed as they reached her home, wanting more time with her.

“Shall I call on you in the morning?”

Kate smiled back. “We shall see how this evening goes, but I do think you are well on your way to gaining my undivided attention.”

“I can say that gaining such attention from you would be a worthy boon, Miss Turner,” Damon returned smoothly, holding his glass up to her before taking a sip.

Once dinner ended, Damon stood first and offered Kate his hand.

“Shall we?” he said softly, knowing her mother would follow since they really shouldn’t be alone.

She smiled and nodded, taking his hand and letting him help her stand. “I do believe we shall. I look forward to getting to know you further.”

“Wonderful,” Damon smiled, “And I so look forward to knowing you as well. I do find such intelligent conversation exhilarating.”

Caroline understood that it was something he didn’t wish to discuss so she just nodded and didn’t push further. “I’m sorry”. She then leaned closer to his shoulder, “But since I don’t like seeing you upset…”. She jumped in front of him and started making funny faces to him to make him laugh. He had the cutest smile and laugh, and she always enjoy to see it. 

Damon laughed at her and gently grabbed her hand, kissing it. “I look forward to laughing with you for as long as you will have me, Caroline...”

He pulled her closer, and slipped into a basic waltz, moving to music that wasn’t really there.

It had been a subtle dig at her mother, but Damon had brushed it aside. Beneath the table, Tammy pinched Kate’s leg hard enough to make her wince.
“Since you’ve designed some parts should I expect a thorough tour on our stroll later?” Kate asked.

He smiled a lop sided smile. “Perhaps not tonight...but tomorrow afternoon should do well if you are willing to endure my company a second day?”

Caroline smiled brightly at him, “I want to be with you too, and even if you’re father don’t approve I will make sure that my father gives us his blessing to court. Because I want the same as you, to spend our lives together”.
She walked with him, smiling as they went. “Can I ask you something? What happened that had you upset earlier?”

He hesitated. “Only another argument with my father. You don’t need to worry yourself over this. Alright? They are a common occurrence unfortunately.”

Kate glanced at the bottle of wine brought to them, and then at Damon. “Your family’s wine, signor? I’m afraid I’ve never had it. My mother prefers French wines.”

“Some do,” he said with a smile, not even bothered, “But since I’ve designed some of the things on this ship...they allowed my father to stock his wine in the kitchen.”

“Is your father here, Damon? I do not believe I’ve seen him,” one of the older men asked.

“He boarded in Ireland. He’s in his room now, resting. He was on a long commute.”

Caroline balanced herself on the rocks and when she crossed them she stopped and turned around to face him. “Damon, I would be the happiest woman on Earth by your side, and the proudest to call you husband”.
She took his hand in both of hers and caressed them, “Damon Salvatore, you’re worth everything”.

HE smiled at her, feeling immensely happy. “God Caroline...I want to be with you...for the rest of our lives. No matter what happens.”

He kissed her hand again as he started to move once more, heading towards the treeline with her.

He was definitely flirting with her now. She smiled back at him. “I think I would enjoy a walk on the deck with you immensely. It seems a fitting end for what is shaping up to be a lovely evening.”

“Lovely,” he said with a smile, “Just let me know when you are ready...but there is no rush, Kate.”

Soon the appetizers arrived, and Damon looked it over in approval. He wasn’t surprised to see some family wine on board.

“So am I. Granted, I looked forward to it before just for a chance to see you dressed so elegantly,” Damon admitted, “But actually going with you…it definitely is better. I hope I may escort you for the rest of our lives, if I can be so bold.”

Caroline smiled, “You’re so charming, you’ll make me blush with all those compliments”. When he talked about spending their lives together she smiled and gave his arm a squeeze, “Would you truly like to share your life with me? Do you see me as worthy to be your wife?”. She felt her heart beating so fast, there was nothing she could imagine to be better than becoming Damon Salvatore’s wife. 

“Only if you see me as worthy,” Damon said, some of the insecurities showing, “I only hope I can provide for us and make you both happy and proud.”

He helped her step over some rocks so that she wouldn’t fall.

Was he saying that just for show or did he actually mean it? Kate decided to believe the latter and gave him a real smile this time.
“Thank you, Mr Salvatore. You look very handsome tonight yourself. And please, I prefer Kate.”
Her mother pinched her under the table.

“I’m glad you’ve seen fitting to grace me with your nickname. I must insist you call me Damon,” he said, smiling as well, “Kate also seems more suited to you as well. I quite like it.”

He winked at her, fully flirtatious about it.

“Perhaps after dinner I could walk you around the deck? The stars are very beautiful once the sun goes down.”

“This is Tamera Turner and her daughter Kate. Mrs Turner is hoping to expand her business into America.”
Tammy gave Damon a sweet smile. “It’s a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Mr Salvatore. For my Katelyn as well.”
She stepped on Kate’s foot with her heel and Kate forced a smile on her face and a mumbled greeting. Kate hoped he didn’t consider it a slight against him–she’d just rather become acquainted on her own terms.

Damon hid his displeasure as he caught how the woman treated her daughter. “Katelyn? What an English name. I quite like it...and I must say you look beautiful, Miss Katelyn. That dress is becoming.”

Kate was tired of being paraded around to what seemed like every unmatched young man in first class. She was tired of being her mother’s pawn.
Still, when the very handsome young man showed up at their table she didn’t stop herself from looking him over and raising her own glass after his gesture.
“Do introduce your young friend, Mr Andrews,” Tammy said sweetly.

Andrews chuckled. “Yes this is Damon Salvatore, heir to the Salvatore Wine Company and quite an established Architect. Some of his work is here in this room, and in the more expensive suites.”

“Madame,” Damon said in greeting, his italian accent pronounced, “Is this your daughter? I do not believe I’ve had the pleasure of meeting her yet.”

He didn’t make a compliment. If he is going to, he will say so directly to her.

Caroline playfully made a thinking face, “I must consider this thoroughly, I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to dance again, and you know how much I love to dance”. But she couldn’t hold a serious face for long, and she broke out into a beaming smile. 
Lacing her arm though his, “I accept such galant offer”. She started walking with him and glanced at him, “I’m glad you asked to escort me to the Ball, now I’m looking forward to it so much more”. 

“So am I. Granted, I looked forward to it before just for a chance to see you dressed so elegantly,” Damon admitted, “But actually going with you...it definitely is better. I hope I may escort you for the rest of our lives, if I can be so bold.”
