Reader Comforting Damon After a Bad Day

When Damon storms into your home, his shoulders are stiff, dark circles adorn his eyes, and his breath is tense.

You call his name, concern fills your voice as you stand up from where you’d been sitting.

This couldn’t be the same as his usual grumpy demeanor, especially not with the hour being so late for him to arrive.

He snaps that nothing’s wrong, he’s fine as he quickly walks past you.

You roll your eyes as he obviously is not fine. Damon’s never been one for talking about his problems, and you couldn’t just let him sulk alone for hours.

So you call his name again, this time reaching for his hand.

He flinches in surprise and initially jerks his hand back, but doesn’t lose your grasp.

"Damon…I can’t let you carry this burden alone. Please, let me help you." You say, still gently holding his hand in yours. 

He immediately opens his mouth to pose a counterargument, but all he lets out is a soft sigh, seemingly realizing your genuineness to help him.

"Why do you even bother?" he asks, his voice not particularly harsh as before.

"You’re important to me, Damon. I care about you…” you assure him.

“Of course I know that you care…” He hates to feel so vulnerable, but after dwelling in that thought, he curls his fingers around your hand still grasping his.

"...I’ll never understand you."  he mutters. Though perhaps that'll be challenge he’ll be up for.
