A/N: This if my first fic! I'm not great with English (it *IS* my first language, I'm just not great at it, haha!). I know there are heaps of stories about Delena and babies and all that, but I wanted to have a go at writing my own story! I'm not sure how much of the TV show I'll include / exlude. Damon, Stef and Caroline are vamps. Elena is a doppleganger, Bonnie a witch. Jeremy is around (not sure who he's dating yet).

I'm trying for a supernatural element here, instead of just following them through a "impossible" pregnancy.

It's rated M because I swear a lot, and when I work up the courage I might try and write some smut (that's why I started reading fanfic... wink).

If you review, PLEASE take note this is my first fanfic. I'm not trying to be a professional or anything! (CC is welcome!)

I don't own TVD. But damn, I'd like to get me some Ian...

I'm from New Zealand. So I don't know much about America or the layout of the country / towns / much culture references etc, but I'll try my best to research stuff!

Damon ran his hands through his already messy black hair, he sat in front of the fire at the boarding house, bourbon in one hand, hair tangling with the other. He couldn't believe the young girl who just stopped by to inform him about Elena's condition. Was someone trying to play a joke on him? She claimed to be a witch from a coven three towns over, apparently they had performed a spell recently to enable one vampire to be able to conceive children with one human for all of eternity. She said there was much more to tell, but a friend closer to Damon could inform him of the rest, and she just left. Disappeared and left Damon with a wide open mouth, filled with questions that he wanted answers to this very minute.

So here Damon was, with no other explanation as to why they performed the spell aside from the fact that the first child was "important" and "must be kept safe", the rest, if any came along, where equally special because it was supposed to be impossible for him to conceive, however "they could die if it came down to it, only the first one is SOOO important". Some crap about the greater good, but Damon was sick of all this drama. He sighed and shot down the remaining bourbon and shot out to his baby blue Camaro to head over to Elena's house and confront her about the little secrete she was hiding.

Elena sat on the small counter top in her bathroom, contemplating whether to take the test she had in her hand, or just go to the doctor.

"This is ridiculous" she thought out loud. There was no way this could be happening. She'd never been intimate with a human before. Surely she just had some kind of weird flu, and the stress of her last month of high school – filled with exams and assignments and university preparations – had just stressed her body so much she was skipping periods. That happened, right?

"God, what a way to start a relationship if this was true" she again said out loud, to no one in particular. Her and Damon and only been together a few weeks– and only intimate once in that very short time, for Elena had been busy with end of year parties and graduation, and Damon, despite saying he'd never leave again, had left for two weeks to find Stefen after he'd taken off when finding out about the news of the happy couple.

*flash back*

Elena came running from her car through the door of the boarding house.

"Damon! Damon! Where are you?... We need to talk, it's really important!"

Damon casually strolled down the stairs, his smirk instantly appearing when he saw Elenas distressed manor.

"What can I do for you, sweet dove?"

Elena was standing in the palor of the house now, not entirely sure how was she was going to explain to the man who had cared for her for almost two years that she kept dreaming of him, and had ended things with Stefen the previous week while Damon was away because she realized she had stronger feelings for Damon then Stefen. How could she say all this?

So she didn't, she ran straight for Damon, who had paused at the bottom of the stairs, jumped up and clung her legs around him and kissed him. She poured all her thoughts into that one kiss, all her dreams, her feelings, her want of Damon into that one kiss in the hope that he would respond and understand what she wanted to say.

"I love you, Damon, I can't stop thinking about you! Don't leave me again! God I missed you so much!"

"Whoa, whoa, Elena! Clam down! What about Stefen? Where is this all coming from?"

Was that seriously all he could think about? "What about Stefen"? God, take me! She thought. Who cares!

Wait.. He'd only just gotten back from his trip to New York, I guess he didn't know Stefen and her where no longer together.

So gingerly, she climbed off of Damon and told him to take a seat, explaining exactly what happened with Stefen,

"I ended things with Stefen, I remember someone saying 'if you love someone else while in a relationship, and can't decide who to pick, pick the second one, because if you truly loved the first, you would never have fallen for the second person'. This saying kept running through my mind for months and months, until one day, I realized how I didn't love Stefan at all anymore, our relationship became safe… I don't want safe, Damon! I want passion and adventure! I've wanted exactly what you have to offer! I want you Damon"

Damon was taken aback by her confession. He knew Elena deserved more then Stefan could give her, when Elena was around Damon she was different then when she was with Stefen, always wanting to do exciting things, laughing and joking around constantly. She seemed conformable around Damon and finally she could see that too.

Damon didn't say anything, but leaned in to where Elena was sitting and kissed her tenderly on the lips, taking only a quick break to say "God, I've waited for this moment these last 2 years, Elena. I love you so much"

That night had led to one of the most passionate nights of Elenas young life, and if she didn't have Caroline's end of school party to organize and attend the next day, she wouldn't have left the house for the rest of the summer.

But when she did leave, a huge smile on her face, her body being treated to kisses as Damon bid her farewell until later at the party, she couldn't be happier. She was in a relationship with Damon Salvatore, the man she'd been dreaming about since she first laid eyes on him.

And so, here she was. In an exclusive relationship with the man she'd been denying her feelings to for so long, and she was either seriously stressed or pregnant. God, how was Damon going to take this if it was true? She hoped Damon didn't assume she'd cheated with a human –then again, Damon could compel it out of her, so she knew she was safe there.

"Fuck it" she thought, as she started to lift her skirt to use the bathroom, she herd Damon yell from downstairs

"Elena! I know you're home, I can hear your heartbeat!" His voice got closer and closer. He sounded a little angry, perhaps he had tried calling her, but her phone was off because she needed time to think for herself with no distractions.

Elena quickly walked out of the bathroom connecting her and Jeremy's rooms together and greeted Damon.

"Why didn't you tell me? I had to hear it from a witch from three towns over that you where possibly pregnant! You must have known with all the symptoms you've been having, and we thought it was just the flu, Elena! How long have you know for?"

"Well actually, Damon, it hasn't been confirmed, I was just about to take the test when you called me out"

Elena tried to keep her cool, what witch had come and spoken to him? How come the witch had known before either of them had? What the fuck was happening?

"Oh, Elena I'm sorry, I thought you'd been hiding it from me because your phone is switched off… Go and take the test babe, then while we wait I'll explain about the witch that visited me".

With a nod of her head Elena turn on her heels and strolled into the bathroom, closing the door behind her. She blocked out all thoughts of anything as she peed on that stick. Not thinking about anything. This was all too real for her, she was over this supernatural crap! And while she'd always wanted a family, she'd resigned herself to maybe just being a kidnygarden teacher to have her fill of little feet around.

When she'd finished her business and washed her hands, she bought the pregnancy test out to her bedroom, where Damon was laying back on her bed, playing with her little teddy bear.

"Sit, Elana. I've spoken to Bonnie quickly while you were in the bathroom, she's coming over because she can explain more about what's happening"

Elena sat down close to Damon, for some reason it felt really awkward between them.

"This test only takes a minute, I have another one in cause it's a false positive or… negative.. hell I don't know how these things work! God this can't happen!" Tears started streaming down her face, suddenly she felt Damon leather clad arms around her, pulling her closer.

"Shh, baby girl. We'll figure this out, everything will be all right, I promise. You wanted excitement and adventure, eh? Well, this is a little scary, it could almost be a little adventure!" He kissed the top of her head gently, and suddenly she felt comfortable and safe, no longer awkward.

Elena giggled a little, he always remembered every little detail she said, no matter how long ago. He could always make her smile even in tough times like these.

Elena glanced at her watch, a minute had been long over it was now more like five. It had seemed she was too comfortable in Damons arms that she somehow even forgot about the reason why she was upset. She hadn't seen him in two weeks, she supposed she just missed being close to him.

She took the pregnancy test off her lap, not making a big deal of it, and turned it over so she could see. Positive. The damn sign had changed into a little positive sign. A wave of nausea crashed over her and she shoved the positive pregnancy test into Damon's hands and ran into the bathroom. He was about to say something, when the doorbell rang, signifying Bonnies arrival
