This is how I would do it.
Main domain would be setup at /var/www/html/firstdomain
and the second /var/www/html/seconddomain

<VirtualHost *:80>
	ServerAdmin email at email.com
	DocumentRoot /var/www/html/firstdomain
	ServerName firstdomain.com
	ServerAlias www.firstdomain.com
	ErrorLog logs/firstdomain-error_log
	CustomLog logs/firstdomain-access_log common
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
	ServerAdmin email at email.com
	DocumentRoot /var/www/html/seconddomain
	ServerName seconddomain.com
	ServerAlias www.firstdomain.com
	ErrorLog logs/seconddomain-error_log
	CustomLog logs/seconddomain-access_log common
</VirtualHost>

Hope this helps
