''I just don't need love," Maria said, merely shrugging. Her lanky body was leaning against the bar counter and she had one hand around her waist and another gripping a margarita. Damon stared back at her and sighed; he simply could not figure this girl out, no matter how hard he tried. He grabbed his drink of choice, a Jack Daniels, and stood to the side of her.

Maria raised an eyebrow at him. Damon had been acting weirder than ever lately, but she couldn't figure out what his deal was. He seemed intent on showing her there was love in the world, more specifically love for her, but she just couldn't see it. It's not like she ever thought about love anyway. It was more of a Damon thing, and since he was her friend, she went along with it.
