Warning: try to control your drool upon hearing the following scoop, female readers. It's bad for the keyboard.

On an upcoming episode of The Vampire Diaries, Damon Salvatore will wake up naked. But while there's no question about how fans will react to that scene, there is one pressing question regarding the development: Who will be the lucky lady by Damon's side?

At the People's Choice Awards, Ian Somerhalder told William Keck his birthday suited character will be lying with "another woman who is a hot vampire." So... Katherine, right?

"I can't say whether or not I'm in that scene," Nina Dobrev countered at the same event. "But it is a character fans are familiar with and Elena will definitely have an opinion on it."

We bet she will. The Vampire Diaries airs a new episode this Thursday night and you can view an Elena/Damon clip from it now.
