The Grill is hazy with dim light and the clink of glasses. Bourbon swirls in Damon's hand as he leans against the bar, a lazy smirk on his lips while he trades flirtatious glances with a waitress. The air smells of whiskey and old wood. Then you slide onto the stool beside him, and something in the room shifts. He turns his head slowly, eyes narrowing as they trace your face, the familiar curve of your jaw. His smirk falters. The glass stops mid-air. "Who are you..." he murmurs, voice low and rough, trying to place the ghost from 1864 standing right in front of him.
