Chapter One

Savannah Johnson stood in the driveway of the large home in Mystic Falls. She couldn't believe the size of this home. Was her new life going to be like this? This was the main question running through her head. Her life had not been the best, being raised by a single mother because her father didn't know about her. Then her mother becoming an alcoholic, because she was disappointed in her own life. But then Savannah became pregnant with her own daughter. This was the beginning of the end for the girls mother. She managed to stay alive for two years, enough to help Savannah begin to raise her daughter, Kinsie before passing away. This left Savannah heartbroken. Now she was on the search for her father, Zachary Salvatore. She had found this out through the court. Thankfully they had let her keep Kinsie, with the knowledge that she would stay with her father. Savannah picked Kinsie up off of the ground and made her way to the door. She rang the doorbell of the large home an looked at the door, which seemed to be as equally tall. A male answered the door, he was tall with black hair and crystal blue eyes. Savannah suddenly thought that she has the wrong home. This man was way too young to be her father. Older brother maybe. Savannah opened her mouth to speak. "Is Za-" She began but she was cut off by the male.

"It isn't mine." He then proceeded to shut the door in her face. Savannah's eyes went wide before she rang the doorbell again, angrier than before. This time a different male answered the door. He was a tad shorter, and more muscular. This male had light brown hair and green eyes. His hair color was lighter than her light brown. Maybe these two were her older brothers, or half brothers.

"Is Zachary Salvatore here?" Savannah said quickly before anyone could slam the door in her face. The male looked at her and then to the little girl in her arms.

"Why don't you come inside?" He asked her. Savannah looked at the male before taking a step inside. She looked around the inside of the home, it was even more huge on the inside. "Let's go in here." He said before walking into a Parlor room. The fireplace was lit and it wasn't a tiny one that you could find in any ole house. It was a huge one. "I'm sorry. I forgot to introduce myself. Stefan Salvatore." He said and stuck out his hand.

"Savannah Johnson, and this is my daughter Kinsie." She told Stefan. He took a seat on the couch and she sat opposite to him.

"She is beautiful." He said and Kinsie turned away from the male and hid her head in her mothers shoulder.

"Thanks." Savannah said with a smile. "I don't mean to be rude, but where is Zachary?"

"I'm sorry Savannah, Zachary passed away a year ago." Savannah's eyes went wide. She looked down at Kinsie. This was it, her fears were becoming a reality. This was some of the last days with her daughter. She did her best to keep herself calm. But she couldn't help the tears forming in her blue eyes. "What's wrong?"

"This was my last chance." She told Stefan. "I was supposed to come here and live with my father who didn't know I existed and I wasn't going to have to put my daughter in a foster home." A single tear ran down her cheek. Stefan stood up.

"I'll be right back." He said leaving the room. Savannah pulled Kinsie into her lap and looked at her little girl.

"Why you cry mommy?" She asked. Savannah wiped her tears.

"Nothing I'm fine." She said not wanting to worry her. Kinsie simply wrapped her arms around her mother. Savannah hugged her back. "Everything will be fine baby." She assured her. Stefan walked back down the stairs along with the other male.

"This is my brother Damon." Stefan introduced. Savannah nodded. She would say that it was nice to meet him, but his first impression wasn't the best. The four of them stood there in silence. "Don't you have something to say?"

"I'm sorry I said that she wasn't mine and didn't hear you out." He said quickly. Something told her that he wasn't usually the type to apologize.

"It's okay." She said to him.

"Savannah, we are your distant cousins. Zach gave us this house as our own. Since we are family. We would like you to stay here and have a stable life with your daughter." Stefan said and Damon looked at him.

"Oh hell no. She is not staying here with that thing!" Damon said and Savannah looked at him as if he has just started a war.

"It's a child Damon, would you rather have her taken away from her mother?" Stefan snapped. Damon once again became silent.

"Alright fine, but whatever happens its your fault." He snapped before quickly leaving the home. Savannah stood up and placed Kinsie on the ground before walking over to her newly found cousin and giving him a hug.

"Thank you." She told him with a smile. She pulled away and watched as Kinsie walked over and hugged Stefan's leg. He simply looked down at her. Not knowing what to do.

"Would you like me to help you with your things?" Stefan offered and Savannah nodded her head.

"That would be great. Thank you so much for letting us stay here." She smiled.

"Its not a problem." Stefan said once more. The three walked outside and too Savannah's beat up looking car that was her mothers. She watched Stefan looking at the beat up vehicle. "It was my mothers." She said simply and he nodded if he got what had happened. Savannah walked over and opened the trunk. Revealing their small bags to take inside of the large home. Kinsie walked over to the side where her car seat was and tried to open the door. Stefan opened the door for her and she grabbed her orange kitty stuffed animal. She hugged it tightly. "I don't know what she would do without that. I gave it to her as a promise that things will get better."

Savannah closed the trunk of her old car and moved to grab the bags but Stefan had already taken them. Savannah grabbed Kinsie's hand and walked with her back inside of the home. The two followed Stefan up to the second level of the large home and straight back. He opened the door revealing a large room. It already had beautiful wood furniture on the inside. Savannah couldn't believe it, she stepped into the room further and saw a door leading to a side room. She walked over to the door and opened it. "This used to be an old boarding house in the 50's. This room was always given to the mothers and their children so that if anything happened to the children the mother or parents would be right there to be with them." Stefan explained. Savannah smiled.

"Thank you so much." She said once more.

"That's what's family is for." Stefan said. "I'll let you two get settled. Let me know if you need anything." He then left the room. Savannah walked over to Kinsie and smiled at her little girl.

"What do you think of it here?" She asked. Kinsie smiled.

"I like it mommy." Savannah walked over to her and picked her up before kissing her cheek. Kinsie then yawned, she looked down at the girl and smiled.

Kinsie shook her head. Savannah knew that her daughter did not like taking naps, but it had been a long day for her. She nodded her head.

"Yes it's nap time, and I promise when you wake up we will still be here." She promised and Kinsie shook her head. "You can lay on Mommy bed." She persuaded and Kinsie smiled.

Savannah walked her daughter over to the big bed and laid her down before kissing her forehead. "Have a good nap baby." She said. Kinsie turned over and cliched her kitty closer to her.

As Kinsie napped, Savannah tiptoed around the rooms, putting their items away. She would have to ask Stefan to help her set up Kinsie's crib. But all of the clothing was put away and she could finally relax. She climbed up on the bed and closed her eyes for just a moment.

Then there was a slight knock on the door.

Savannah sat up and quietly walked over to the door."Mommy?" She heard Kinsie ask.

"I'm here," She said before opening the door. It was Stefan.

"Can I help you with anything?" Stefan asked.

"Can you help me set up her crib?" Savannah asked and Stefan nodded.

"Sure." He said walking into the room. The two of them made their way into the side bedroom. "How are you guys doing? Is everything going okay?" He asked.

"Yeah it's fine. Kinsie just woke up from a nap."

"Sorry." He said grabbing some material for the bed.

"No it's fine don't worry about it. She needed to wake up or she would be up all night." She said with a little laugh.

"Oh okay good." He said beginning to build the crib. "Hey, why don't you and Kinsie go get dressed and I'll take you out for dinner."

"No Stefan, you don't have to do that." Savannah said. "You have already done enough."

"Really don't worry about it. Damon hasn't gone to the store in a while and there is no food in the house." Stefan explained and Savannah nodded.

"Okay, and your sure you don't need any help?" She asked and he shook his head.

"No I've got this." He said. Savannah nodded once more and walked out of the little side room. She walked over to the bed and sat down next to Kinsie.

"Stefan take us to dinner?" Kinsie asked.

"Yes he is baby." Kinsie smiled and Savannah got up off of the bed and helped Kinsie get off of the bed as well. She led her daughter over to her dresser.

"Mommy I wear dress." She said and Savannah could hear Stefan laughing from the next room.

"I hate to burst her bubble, but this isn't a fancy place." He explained.

"It's fine. I wouldn't want you to take us to anywhere fancy." Savannah told her. "She is going through her 'all she wants to wear is dresses phase. It took her a lot of convincing to wear jeans in the car this morning." He laughed before walking into the room where the two girls were.

"Its all complete, I'll let you two get ready and I'll meet you downstairs in a few minutes." Stefan said and Kinsie ran over to him and gave his legs a hug."

"Thanks." She said with a smile.

"Its not a problem." He said with a little laugh.

"Come on missy lets get you dressed." Savannah said and Kinsie went running towards her mother as Stefan left the room. Savannah got Kinsie dressed in her favorite blue dress, before changing her own clothing. She placed on jeans and a red top with little white polkadots all over. She looked over to her daughter who was playing with her cat stuffed animal. "Ready?" She asked and Kinsie nodded.

Kinsie took her little kitty and held it close to her before walking over and grabbing her mother's hand. The two walked downstairs to see that Stefan was waiting for them. "Are you girls ready?" He asked. Savannah nodded.

"Would you like me to drive?" She asked him and he shook his head.

"No, I'll drive. You have been driving all day." He walked over to the door and opened it for them. "Lets go." He said closing the door behind them.
