It's a song we don't sing very often anymore. Written in 1911 by William P. Merrill, this song has a command we don't often hear from those in leadership positions today. The first verse reads: "Rise up, O men of God! Have done with lesser things; give heart and mind and soul and strength to serve the King of Kings."
As I have been studying the book of Nehemiah lately, this song kept coming to my mind. The strength of Nehemiah's leadership in the face of so much opposition has invaluable lessons for us today.
Six Traits that Made Nehemiah a Great Leader
Nehemiah was a man of passion. When he learned about the remnant who were in shame and the condition of the wall and gates surrounding Jerusalem, he wept and mourned over the state of that great city. How many of us today have shed tears, fasted, and mourned for the weakened condition of the church in so many places?
Nehemiah was a man of prayer. He turned to the only Source of all good blessings in his time of trouble. I have taken the time to color all of the times that Nehemiah prayed in this short book. I find it refreshing to thumb through the pages and see the times that he turned to God in prayer. Sometimes they were long prayers, and sometimes they were short utterances, but they were sent to the "Lord God of heaven, the great and awesome God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep His commandments." Do I recognize this great source of strength?
Nehemiah was a planner. It seems very obvious to me that Nehemiah had spent some time in thinking through what he would need in order to complete the task of rebuilding the wall, should he get the opportunity to do so. He needed time off, confirmation from the king that he had the authority to travel to Jerusalem, and letters for the timber he would need to rebuild the gates that had been burned. How often to I devote time to planning something that will help build up God's Kingdom, the church?
Nehemiah was a partner. After surveying the damage and assessing the work that was before them, he makes one of the most powerful statements in this account. "Come, let us build the wall of Jerusalem, that we may no longer suffer derision" (2:17, emphasis added). Rather than sitting back and expecting others to do the work, he joined in helping with rebuilding the walls and gates of Jerusalem. Do I ever think that the work is for someone else to do, or do I willingly join in with others to accomplish what needs to be done for the Lord?
Nehemiah was opposed from without and within. He was ridiculed, discouraged by friends and enemies, talked about falsely, and met with opposition on every side. In every instance, he met these darts of the devil with prayer and courage. He not only showed the strength that a man of God should have in times of trial, but also the way to respond to such opposition. How often when I am opposed is my first thought to pray and then calmly respond to the opposition?
Nehemiah was a provider. He provided courage and help for rebuilding the wall which gave the city of Jerusalem physical protection. He then began to make provision for the spiritual protection of those people who would reside in that territory. Ezra was called to bring the Book of the Law of Moses and he read it before the people – "the men and women and all those who could understand. And the ears of all the people were attentive to the Book of the Law" (8:3). Am I attentive to God's Word today, and do I see it as the provision of protection for my life?
The lessons from Nehemiah could go on and on, but I hope that if you haven't studied this book lately, this short list will whet your appetite to dig into the text and apply these lessons to your life.
Rise up, O men (and women) of God. Face the opposition with the help of the same powerful God who helped Nehemiah so long ago.
"Lift high the cross of Christ!
Tread where His feet have trod;
As brothers of the Son of man,
Rise up, O men of God!"

When I pick up my mail, the first thing I do is quickly shuffle through the pile and pick out any hand-addressed letters. Experience tells me these will be the items that are important to me – birthday cards, party invitations, thank you notes. No matter how high the mail pile, these items stand out from a homogenous sea of slick direct mail packages and faux "official" correspondence. They are the stuff of "real" life.
When it comes to business mail, I'm more impressed by truly personal communications than I am by free samples, special offers, or discount coupons. It's a case of actions speaking louder than words. As a business, it's easy to say that you take personal care of each customer, think of clients as family, and go the extra mile to make a difference. But, how do you prove it? Today's unprecedented technological advances make it easy to create "custom" messages based on all kinds of criteria from demographics to buying history; but – when it comes to building meaningful relationships – people still want one-on-one attention. They want to be treated like a real person.
For most businesses, it's not feasible to communicate personally with each client; but in the B2B world, where the sales cycle is longer and your business might be built on a few strong and strategic partnerships, it can work. Smaller businesses can also use some of these techniques selectively – focusing efforts on a few key customers or prospects. Either way, getting personal can have a positive impact on your relationships and your bottom line.
4 Instances Where a Simple, Personal Touch Goes a Long Way
1. Customer Service: Please, I'm begging you. The first place to think about a personal touch is with customer service. This is, after all, where you get to showcase how well you care for your clients. Wherever possible, avoid sending me into a labyrinth of automated call attendant selections. Depending on call volume and available resources, I understand that a certain amount of automation is required; but keep it to a minimum. I can't tell you how many times I've been standing in my living room, pacing back and forth, making rude gestures, and shouting "Agent!!!!" into my telephone receiver because I'm that desperate to talk to a real, live person. Don't turn me into raving lunatic. It's not good for business.
2. Apology: If you do mess up, you need to apologize. Again, from personal experience, let me assure you that few things rub a disgruntled customer the wrong way more than a boilerplate apology. Whatever you did to screw up, I took it personally and I expect a personal apology. If you were my boyfriend, I'd want a hand-written note, some nice flowers, and a promise to be a better man. A nicely-formatted HTML email with links to your latest product releases is not going to make me a fan.
3. Thank You: I did something nice for you – I referred a customer, placed a big order, re-upped my contract, upgraded my service. The basic manners that your mother taught you apply in business as well as your personal life – say "thank you." I don't mean just that you should start your confirmation email with the words, 'thank you for your order.' I mean you should send me a personal note to thank me. An email will do, but something that's actually delivered to my real-life mailbox will knock my socks off.
4. Holidays: Last week I received the usual holiday card from my insurance company. Once again, they sent the same form letter and mini desk calendar that they've been sending since 1964. I'm touched. Even better, they packaged the damn thing with a letter about renewing my policies. Seriously? Was that to save on postage? It's the holidays. 2009 has been a rough year for many. This is a time to thank your loyal customers with sincerity and a personal touch. Sure – you might be sending me a Harry & David gift basket or Fruit-of-the-Month membership, but I'll be more impressed if you send a personal note talking about the business we've done this year and all the challenges we've overcome. I'd prefer to get a card featuring candid shots of your staff and some personal insights into their holidays than one with a gold embossed, holiday-agnostic image meant to convey joy, cheer, and good will toward men.
As businesses, we have so many amazing, automated tools at our disposal to find, engage with, and service our customers. In particular, the explosion of social media platforms and various widgets has expanded our consumer dialog into new dimensions. Still, there's nothing like an old-fashioned note – written expressly for the intended recipient – to make a lasting impression. Try it. You may be pleasantly surprised.
Do you have other ideas about how to create impact by getting personal?

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on U.S. President Donald Trump's planned meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu (all times local):
1:20 p.m.
The head of Israel's pro-settler Jewish Home Party has welcomed what he is calling a "new era" following the White House press conference with President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
In a tweet, Naftali Bennett said the "Palestinian flag was removed from the staff and replaced with an Israeli flag."
Bennett, a powerful coalition partner in Netanyahu's government, is a leading opponent of Palestinian statehood and believes Israel should instead annex occupied lands.
At the press conference, both Trump and Netanyahu were evasive about endorsing a two-state solution with the Palestinians, the international community's preferred solution for nearly two decades.
In his tweet, Bennett said the prime minister "displayed leadership and daring and fortified Israel's security."
12:55 p.m.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is vouching for President Donald Trump as the two leaders appear together at a joint press conference.
Netanyahu says there is "no greater supporter of the Jewish people and the Jewish state than President Donald Trump."
The prime minister was addressing a question from Israeli media about fears the administration "is playing with xenophobia and maybe racist tones."
Netanyahu says that he's known Trump, members of Trump's team and his family for many years. That includes Trump's son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner, whom Netanyahu has known since Kushner was young.
Netanyahu says he thinks any insinuation otherwise should be put "to rest."
12:50 p.m.
President Donald Trump says in a joint news conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that he will do "everything within our power to stop long-simmering racism."
Trump was asked by an Israeli reporter about a rise in anti-Semitic incidents and whether his campaign encouraged xenophobia. Trump notes that he won 306 electoral votes and fostered "tremendous enthusiasm" during his campaign.
The new president says the nation is "very divided" and adds he's hopeful to be able to "do something about that."
Trump notes that his daughter, Ivanka, and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, and their three children are Jewish. He says "you're going to see a lot of love" in the United States.
12:30 p.m.
President Donald Trump is asking Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to "hold back" on settlements for a bit.
In a joint press conference with Netanyahu at the White House Wednesday, Trump responded to a question about his position on the expansion of Israeli settlements, asking Netanyahu to "hold back on settlements for a little bit."
He says that a "two state looked like it will be the easier of the two," but says that if Israel and the Palestinians find an alternative that they like better, he'll support them.
Trump also says that he'd like to see the U.S. Embassy in Israel moved from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, but noted that "we're looking at it with great care."
12:20 p.m.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is urging President Donald Trump to "let us seize this moment" to seek new avenues of peace in the Middle East.
Netanyahu also says he believes reversing the "rising tide of radical Islam" is also possible with Trump leading the United States.
The Israeli leader is at the White House to meet with Trump.
In his opening statement at a joint news conference, Trump says Israel has no better ally than the United States and the United States has no better ally than Israel.
12:25 p.m.
President Donald Trump is opening his joint news conference with Israeli Prime Minister with a vow to encourage a peace agreement between Israel and the Palestinians.
But the U.S. president says the two parties themselves "must directly negotiate such an agreement."
Netanyahu adds, "both sides."
Trump reaffirmed the United States' "unbreakable bond" between the two countries. He called Israel a symbol of resilience. He says Israel faces enormous security challenges and is calling the Iran nuclear deal negotiated under former President Barack Obama "one of the worst deals I've ever seen."
12:10 p.m.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu (neh-ten-YAH'-hoo) has arrived at the White House for a meeting with President Donald Trump.
Trump and his wife, Melania, greeted Netanyahu and his wife, Sara, at the south entrance to the White House.
The leaders shook hands and the prime minister kissed Mrs. Trump on the cheek. Trump and Netanyahu embraced as they entered the White House.
The leaders were heading straight into a news conference with journalists from U.S. and Israeli media.
Afterward, they were to meet in the Oval Office before continuing their talks over lunch.
10 a.m.
U.N. chief António Guterres says there is no "plan B" for resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, after the White House suggested a two-state solution was one of many options for making peace.
Speaking to reporters in Cairo, Guterres said the international community must do everything it can to bring about a two-state solution.
Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry, standing next to Guterres, did not comment on the issue.
The two-state solution has wide international backing and has been a cornerstone of American diplomacy in the Middle East for more than two decades.
A senior White House official said Tuesday that Trump hopes to bring the two sides together and facilitate a peace agreement, but that peace — and not necessarily a Palestinian state alongside Israel — was the priority. The official spoke on condition of anonymity in order to preview the meeting.
4 a.m.
A Palestinian official says the goal of establishing a state of Palestine alongside Israel enjoys broad international support, expressing surprise at a Trump administration suggestion that a peace deal may not come in the form of a two-state solution.
Husam Zomlot, an adviser to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, says the "two-state solution is not something we just came up with."
Zomlot spoke ahead of a White House meeting on Wednesday between President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
A White House official has said that it's up to Israelis and Palestinians to decide what peace will entail, and that peace, not a two-state solution, is the goal.
Zomlot says it's not clear if the comments signal a shift from long-standing U.S. policy of supporting a two-state deal.
3:30 a.m.
The White House says rebooting the Mideast peace process is a very high priority for the Trump administration, although peace may not come in the form of a two-state solution.
A senior White House official says President Donald Trump is eager to begin facilitating a peace deal and hoping to bring the Israelis and Palestinians together sometime soon.
Trump is meeting Wednesday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The official says that peace is the goal, regardless of whether it comes in the form of a two-state solution. The official spoke on condition of anonymity in order to preview the meeting.
Other topics of discussion expected to come up Wednesday include expanded Israeli settlements, Iran and a potential move of the U.S. embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.

'Red Baron' PEACH
Prunus persica 'Red Baron'
Low chill variety: 250 chill hours / self-pollinating
hardy in zones 7-9;
Ripens late: usually mid-July
on Nemaguard rootstock: especially for Florida
Even Scarlet's petticoats were never this attractive:
The 'Red Baron' peach presents a dazzling display of red double ruffled blossoms in late spring for nearly 2.5-3 weeks! Large 3", juicy, firm, freestone peaches ripen in mid-July.
At this time, the Red Baron peach is only available in 4g & small 7g sizes.
At only 250 chill hours, the 'Red Baron' peach can be grown as far south as north Tampa and north Orlando, where the zone 9 temps range at 210-310 most winters.
It is also thriving well in upper zone 8, as far north as Athens Georgia! That's a rather wide growing range for the average low chill peach -- most don't have that much latitude in temperature tolerance.
Red Baron is a richly flavored yellow peach with strong red exterior blushing. It is highly rated in taste tests, and a long-time favorite in Southern California and Texas. Our trees are grafted on Nemaguard especially for Florida home orchards.
The spectacular double, scarlet-red blossoms can last as long as three weeks in the late spring, with fruit ripening from mid-July to early August. On Nemaguard root stock, trees grow about 12-15' tall and nearly as wide.
Available Qty: 2

I really don't understand why men don't take their shoes more seriously. Granted there is a small (and growing) population that knows how to pick their shoes, and there is an even smaller obsessive group of sneaker and shoe geeks but, on the whole, men seem curiously unconcerned about their shoes.
Case in point, my own partner has a total of three pairs of shoes and two of them are cheap gym shoes. After ages of trying to get him to buy a nice pair of shoes, I finally got him to wear a new pair when I gave it to him as a Christmas gift.
So just to make it clear to all you men out there, women look at your shoes. And we do judge you by it. And the women who don't are probably not worth sleeping with anyway (god I'm going to get so much flack for that).
So a little bit of shoe investment will go a long way. You don't have to buy the store, but a good pair of casual shoes, gym shoes, loafers, boat shoes, boots and dress shoes. Not too much to ask for. I mean, women take so much time to get the perfect shoe for each outfit, why shouldn't men?
Flip Flops
Beach? Yes, please! Anywhere else? Either get a nice pair of sandals (no not those ugly hippie sandals!) to wear on the streets, or wear shoes!
Boat Shoes
Oh yes please! What used to be shoes for boring old men are so in right now. Wear them with your pants rolled up a little, or with short shorts. Men who wear this (below) show they have style and confidence enough to wear what used to be old-skool dad shoes.
Dress Shoes (top image)
Unless you're dressed up, these look pretty pretentious, so I would steer clear of these shoes, unless you're suiting up!
Suede Boots
These are sexy when worn right. But on the whole, a win. Shows a man who is current and yet isn't afraid of suede.
Now I'm not a sneaker expert but I know enough to know an ugly pair of sneakers. There are websites that can help with all the sneakers but even then I would take all of the reviews with a pinch of salt. A guy with a nice pair of sneakers shows that he is chilled and probably listens to good music too!
This is just the tip of the iceberg, but if you keep to these guidelines you'll be set for now. So good luck and let me know how other women react to your new stylishness.

Daily Widget Display
The Seven Days WordPress Plugin by the Wegrass Team gives you the option to set what days of the week a widget is displayed.
A nice graphical interface which you just click to show or hide what days your widget will appear.
So for testing purposes I have set up seven widgets with each one set to appear on a specific day of the week which you will be able to see in the side bar.
I like this plugin I don't think I have come across anything similar before.
This plugin has not been updated for sometime but still works on WordPress 3.7.1 .

This past week I was reading a story about someone who was going to do something that would probably be very regrettable but would have been an easy way out. In the story advice was given this person to "do the right thing and God will bless you."
When I read that I cringed. We can't help ourselves can we?

What the Obamacare repeal bill means for physicians
"This repeal may affect their bottom line, especially outside of major cities with high-traffic. Depending on the demographic of your patients, some may dropout due to lack of coverage or misunderstanding/fear regarding the new plan," he says. "They should plan ahead to boost new patient acquisition and encourage existing patients to return."
Changes in Medicaid
The American Medical Association are one of numerous medical groups that are weary over the GOP bill, in part because of its aim to eliminate the funding for Medicaid expansion.
Editorial: Healthcare reform must start with physicians, not politicians
Wayne Lipton, founder and CEO of Concierge Choice Physicians, a concierge group with more than 200 affiliate physicians in 23 states, notes that for doctors who care for large Medicaid patient populations, millions would no longer be covered under the new legislation.
"Those with high-risk illnesses will potentially have to pay more if they have interruptions in their insurance, and thus, may end up uninsured," he says "Many doctors will be facing more bad debt. For most practices, the issues will be far less than for hospitals, who will be facing much more losses because of unreimbursed healthcare. Emergency rooms may again become packed with the uninsured, impacting those emergency departments, their budgets and the physicians who work there."

The SEVA suit, Bulat suit, PSZ-9D Duty suit, and the Exoskeleton come with five artifact containers. The Stalker suit comes with three artifact containers, instead of two. The Exoskeleton skin has been changed from the Loner Exoskeleton skin to the Mercenary Exoskeleton skin.

~Just Believe 2015~ (Comics for Kids)
At AWYHM we understand that adventure stories and fairytales play an important role in the lives of the children who believe in them, and this especially true for children who face difficult times and have special medical needs.
This year "AWYHM's Just Believe event was even BIGGER reaching out to more children than ever before!
We believe we can make a difference in our community for all children, by spreading joy to those who need it most, and also leading by example and teaching others to give back as well.
With your help, we collected OVER 150 comic and Story books to distribute to the children at Central Valley Children's Hospital !
Our team of performers along with select community members hosted a "Bookfair " at Barnes and Noble in Fresno.
The public was invited to "shop in the name of Valley Children's" from July 8th-12th and part of the proceeds were donated directly to the hospital.
On July 11 from 10-12pm AWYHM characters were on location at Barnes & Noble for a meet and greet while collecting donated books.
Captain America, Super Girl, Wonder Woman, and Anna had the opportunity to greet children, and support this wonderful fundraiser!
On August 16th, Batman and Ariel delivered the books to Valley Children's, Madera
Sleeping Beauty, her 3 Fairy Godmothers and A Wish Your Heart Makes want to Thank everyone involved for her special day…

Nominate a child today!
Each year AWYHM participates in many events, but the one that touches our hearts the deepest is our annual "Just Believe" event for children with special medical needs!
This extravagant enchanted experience is presented by A Wish Your Heart Makes as a giveaway to celebrate a special child.
This year we have chosen 2 recipients- One from our central coast location, and one from our central valley location. This extravagant enchanted experience, presented by AWYHM was celebrated at the SLO Children's Museum on Sept, 28th. Read the story of our "Central Coast" recipient, Lorena Maduena, of Paso Robles below:
Lorena has a disorder called Hydrocephalus, or more commonly known as, water on the brain. When Lorena was born she was air lifted to Madera Children's Hospital. At only 5 days old, she underwent the first of many surgeries.
Last Easter, when most children were out hunting eggs and eating candy, Lorena had a major seizure that resulted in her being air lifted to UCSF. Just two weeks later, Lorena experienced another seizure lasting 40 minutes. What a scare!
Most Recently, Lorena had a major setback, a shunt malfunction which led to yet another surgery for replacement. Soon after this surgery an M. R. I. showed bacteria around the shunt, leading to yet another surgery, but this time to remove the shunt so the infection could be treated with antibiotics.
On Sept. 2, Lorena had surgery to replace the shunt once again.
At only 3 years old, this debilitating disease has left Lorena in a wheelchair until she can learn to walk. While Lorena developmentally seems like a 9 month old and her hearing is like that of a 6 month old, her surgery was successful and we are looking forward to future milestones.
If you know of a child that would benefit from this special event please fill out THIS FORM!

They Poured Fire On Us From The Sky
"They made us do crazy work in Natinga."- Benjamin Ajak (pg 213), I chose this quote because here in Canada nobody forces us to do anything, we have a lot of freedom in what we do, and in this quote its clear that they don't.
"My body hurts from walking so long"- Benjamin Ajak (pg 64). Our lives, when compared to this, seem so easy. We never have to walk so far or do anything so hard that our bodies start to hurt.
"I'm not your son. You can't call me son." - Alepho Deng (pg 160). I'm sure that this happens everywhere around the world including Canada and it's terrible.
The End
Jonah Rook
"no matter how bad the situation is, if you can't find any humor, then life is not worth it" -Alepho (194). I chose this quote because that is how people should think here, instead ignoring the humor in things and getting angry
"Although we never had enough food in Kakuma and it was hot, windy and dusty, and people were sick without help, we still had some fun." Ajak (pg 275). Compared to here we always have enough food and enough shelter, but when we don't we tend to miserable, very much unlike these poeple.
"My heart pounded at the crying and shooting." - Benson Deng (139). Here we don't have to worry that much about gun shots or people being killed, but over there it was an everyday thing.
"I could no longer think much about my family except that I was alone and without them." - Benson Deng (pg 62). People here don't stop thinking about their families because they don't have to, because they are still alive
"My body hurt from walking for so long. Just when I almost wanted to lie down in my house and be with my parents." Deng (Pg. 64). Here, little kids don't walk till their bodies hurt and most aren't orphaned and left to survive on their own.
"Your arms, your legs, your joints, would be beaten until you became paralyzed." (Deng Pg. 276). Kids are getting beaten until they are unable to move any longer. Kids here are going to school and hanging with friends.
"But I was so weak and tired and overcome by sickness that I couldn't feel the hunger." Deng (pg 228). Here people are rarely so sick and weak that they couldn't feel their hunger beacuse if they are that sick they are supplied with medicine and food.

Disclaimer: I don't own The Vampire Diaries. I'm just not that lucky.
Summary: Damon/Jenna one-piece. No romance, just friendship. Sort of. Jenna knows the type and just isn't impressed. Damon begs to differ as he lands a helping hand. Contains some Damon/Elena undertones.
A/N: So, I really enjoyed writing the short witty banter between Jenna and Damon in some of my other stories and it sort of inspired me to write this. I don't know what it is or if it's any good, but I really like Jenna and I wish she was a bigger part of the show and I think she's pretty much the only who can verbally take on Damon. She's always so bitchy to him, but in that sort of endearing way. I love that. I think they could even challenge the epic Damon/Alaric bromance. ;-) So that's why I wrote this. I thought you might enjoy it.
Jenna was seriously agitated the moment she exited the supermarket. She hated grocery shopping, even more so when this was the largest supermarket in town and they literally had two employees working the store today, incompetent ones at that. It just frustrated her and made her want to take over the whole thing and fix everything that had to be fixed. So yeah, she had issues of the organizing kind. It was funny in a way, since in everyday life she was as chaotic as the supermarket she'd just left, but whenever she saw it with somebody else or within her job, she had this strong urge to fix it. Whichever way. And knowing she couldn't this time, resulted into a moment of withdrawal when she walked away from it. Her hands were itching and she was seriously tempted to go back in and give them a piece of her mind, but she managed to keep walking, shifting the paper bags in her arms every now and then to keep them from falling over. In her head she tried to get her 'to do-list' straight, knowing it was endless as usual. Laundry, cooking, preparing that presentation for tomorrow and above all talk to Elena and get it clear what was going on with her, since she had been distracted lately. Same with Jeremy. Great. She was such a suck-y parental figure. She didn't even a clue as to what was going on in the lives of the kids. They could be doing drugs or be on their way to a life of crime and she wouldn't have a clue. It was exhausting to be the cool aunt all the time and let them wander free, pretending to be okay with it. So it was decided. She was going to sit those two down and get to the bottom of things. It was obvious they had some major things going on in their lives. She was done being the cool aunt, she was going to be a parental figure. For real this time. So there. Now she just had to figure it where to fit that into her schedule. Before or after laundry?
Jenna managed to withhold a swear word (parental figure, remember?) when the first paper bag started to fall. She ducked, intending to grab it before falling to the ground, but therefore also dropping the other paper bag. The apples on top of one of the bags hit the ground and scattered all over the parking lot. It felt like a cheesy cliché from a movie and she resisted the urge to look around for that dashing stranger to help her out and whose hand she would touch as they both went for the same apple, causing instant sparks to fly. She smiled a little at the thought. What was she doing? Fantasizing about handsome strangers when she already had the perfect guy in her life? She crouched down, ignoring the pain from the still healing wound on her stomach and her hand went for the apple closest to her. She almost shrieked when from the corner of her eye another hand appeared and covered hers as she grabbed the apple. Her head went up and she was greeted by the features of a dashing, handsome…
"Damon." She sighed, getting up and placing the first apple back in the paper bag. "Can I help you?"
The dark, but not-so-much stranger smirked. "I think the question is: can I help you?"
"I've got it. Thanks." She told him, suspiciously. "I'll see you around."
She was desperately praying he'd get the hint, not in the mood to deal with him.
"Don't be stubborn. I'll give you a hand. You're still hurt." He announced as he randomly started grabbing the apples around him. Jenna watched him, still standing up, holding only one of the paper bags. When his hands were full he stood up straight and took a few steps towards her, his piercing blue eyes locking with hers as he dropped the apples in the bag without even looking down. The impossible grin was decorating his face and Jenna had to do her best not to roll her eyes at him.
"Don't bother. The flirting might work with any other girl in this town, but not with me." She told him.
"Flirting?" Damon smiled, still standing impossibly close to her which, in all fairness, did make her a little uncomfortable. "This is not flirting. I'm simply helping out a beautiful woman in need of a hand."
"Oh, cut it out." Jenna told him, giving him a look. "You don't know how to deal with women, other than flirt with them. I know the type and I'm not impressed."
"You're a little impressed." Damon countered, so full of himself that she could vomit. "And that's okay. I'm just that irresistible."
"Ugh." She reacted, this time rolling her eyes. "You're severely overestimating yourself and it's not a good look. This isn't going to work on me, Damon. You don't get to kiss Elena and then flirt with me, her aunt in case you forgot."
"I never kissed Elena." Damon immediately replied, frowning slightly, then recovering. "Not really."
"I caught you two on the porch! Nice to see it meant that much to you that you don't even remember. You just confirmed every prejudice I ever had about you."
Jenna bent over to grab the other paper bag that was still on the ground, not bothering to pay any more attention to the obnoxious man standing in front of her.
"Oh, that!" He then nodded. "No, I remember. Wasn't what it looked like though. Trust me."
"I know what I saw." Jenna told him, eye to eye with him again. "And I'm telling you right now that if I ever find out you hurt her in any way, you'll be dealing with me. And I'm not nice."
"Have you given my brother the same speech? He's the one kissing her on a regular basis. Just saying." He shrugged.
"No, you see, Stefan I trust. You, on the other hand…"
"Jenna." Damon teasingly pleaded with her. "I'm stopping you right there, because there are words about to come out of your mouth that I know you just don't mean. And if you do, I'm offended. You don't even know me."
"I know enough." Jenna concluded, giving him the once-over, before starting to walk off. She wasn't even surprised when Damon rushed to catch up with her. She knew the type. They were persistent. And annoying.
"At least let me carry the bags to the car for you." He offered. "Stab wound to the stomach, remember?"
"I got it." She assured him.
Of course this was Damon's cue to reach out to the bags anyway and take them from her, not giving her the time to object. She sighed theatrically.
"You're not just gonna go away, are you?" Jenna fake smiled to Damon, who simply flashed her one of his undeniably irresistible smiles.
Jenna sighed again as she stopped walking. "What do you want, Damon? What's this about? Why does it matter what I think of you?"
"Well, I already know the answer to that last one. You think I'm ridiculously hot. Said it yourself." Damon answered, frowning, but his smile not faltering as he gave her look.
Jenna placed one hand on her hip. "Is that what you want to hear? That I find you attractive? Is that what you need to hear to boost your ego or something? Oh wait, that can't be it. Your ego is already big enough to fill up this parking lot."
"You wound me, Jenna. You do." Damon smirked as he started to walk towards her car again.
Jenna watched him take a few steps, then she caught up with him. Great, now she was the one walking after Damon Salvatore. She truly hated herself right now.
"What is this, Damon?"
"What? I can't try to get in your good graces again?"
"You can try, but you'll fail." She bitched, the words coming out harsher than intended.
Damon chuckled. "See, this is why I like you. You're feisty."
"Why do you even want to get in my good graces? Is it because of Elena?"
Jenna reached in the pocket of her jeans and got out her car keys as she awaited his answer. Damon immediately took them from her, balancing the two paper bags on one arm with surprising ease. He pressed the button to unlock the trunk as he turned to Jenna. She saw how he was about to open his mouth and she found how she couldn't resist asking the question that had been going through her mind for a while now.
"You like her, don't you?" She asked, before he had the chance to say anything.
Damon's ever present smirk instantly disappeared as he opened the trunk.
"Why do you keep bringing up Elena?" He asked, not looking at her.
"Because she's the only reason I can think of that makes it so important to you that I like you."
"Don't sell yourself short, Jenna. It is possible that I just want to you to like me because I like you."
"It's possible, but highly unlikely. What is with you and Elena anyway?"
The question sounded casual, but she was genuinely curious. Elena never bothered to give up any information on the subject and it was in Jenna's curious nature to wonder. She wasn't stupid and she'd noticed the tension between them, not to mention her front row seat to the kiss.
"We're friends."
"You kissed."
"We're good friends." Damon shrugged.
"She loves Stefan." Jenna stated.
"Oh, I'm aware of that."
"And you're older than she is."
"You're not wrong." He nodded as he placed the bags in the trunk and turned to Jenna. "Are you done prying?"
Not even close.
"It hurts, doesn't it? To love somebody who doesn't love you back?" She blurted, suddenly fitting the pieces together as she saw something in Damon's eyes she had never seen before. A kind of vulnerability that she'd searched for in every low- life scumbag she'd ever dated, but never managed to find.
"So now you're assuming I love Elena?" Damon asked, raising an eyebrow, pretending to be okay with the subject, but not succeeding in hiding that he was slightly uncomfortable.
"I have eyes. I see the way you look at her." Jenna challenged him.
Damon sighed, his eyes focused on Jenna. "What do you want me to say?"
"You don't have to admit it. I just… I just don't want her to get hurt. I don't want you to hurt her."
Damon took a deep breath, visibly pondering his next words for just a second. "I couldn't if I wanted to."
"Good." She nodded, looking down for a second.
"So where does that leave me? The promise not to hurt Elena? Carrying your bags? I say that earns me some brownie points." Damon cockily announced, his smirk firmly back in place, apparently deciding he was the one who had to be in control of the conversation and not the other way around.
Jenna tilted her head. "Maybe."
"I'm not the devil, Jenna."
"I never said you were."
Damon nodded slowly and then motioned to the bags. "Can you take it from here?"
"Yeah." Jenna assured him. "Thanks for the help."
Damon stepped forward and closed the space between them. It startled her as he looked straight into her eyes again, making her feel slightly uneasy. But she'd rather die than admit that, so she returned the stare as confidently as possible. She then felt his soft touch on her hand. Her first instinct was to pull away, but it was then that she felt the cold metal of her car keys as he gently placed them in her hand, his touch lingering just a little too long, before dropping his arm back to his side.
"Take care of yourself, okay?"
"I will." She promised him, surprising herself when there wasn't even a hint of sarcasm in her words.
"Don't go around carrying heavy things like this again. You need to be careful. You got hurt pretty bad."
"I know."
Damon seemed to hesitate for a second. "I'm serious, you know. And if there's no one around to help with these things…just call me."
Jenna squinted suspiciously. "Okay. Who are you and what have you done with Damon Salvatore?"
"I told you, you didn't know me." He smirked. "I have some redeemable qualities. I'm no Saint Stefan, but he's in a league of his own, so you can't hold that against me."
"He makes her happy, Damon." Jenna spoke sincerely, but gently.
"And so I'll continue to live in his shadow. We all have our crosses to bear." He smirked sadly.
The words surprised her, but she decided not to get into them.
"Thanks again for the help."
"You're very welcome. I'll see you around."
"Yeah, you will."
He gave her a quick nod before walking off, Jenna following him with wondering eyes. He'd surprised her and while she was convinced that some of it had been smooth talking and that these kind of guys were the masters of charming their way back in, she believed this particular guy. She even felt for him. And while she didn't like the fact that he was in love with her teenage niece, she knew she didn't have anything to worry about. He'd look after her. Always. She smiled as she remembered how she'd dated hundreds of scumbags, always believing that she could be the one to change them. And now, after finally having given up on that idea, she was proven wrong. Even the bad guys could be tamed. And it really did only take one girl.
A/N: Yeah, this was completely random, I know. ;-) I always find it difficult to write Damon all vulnerable like this, but I hope it shows that all of this also came from the guilt he feels. He feels responsible for getting Jenna hurt after provoking Katherine. Like maybe he felt like he owed her some honesty when she asked about Elena. If that makes sense at all. ;-) Anyway, reviews would be lovely!
