"Sally, are you even listening to me?"
"Yeah", Serena whispered but kept her eyes on someone else than her cousin before her.
"Sal", the 15 year old bashed on the table, making her cousin face her again.
"What!"
"Can you just stop gloating at him and remember that we're together here?"
Serena sighed heavily and sat back straight on her chair again. The cousins were outside of a restaurant, enjoying their milkshakes- well, at least one of them. Serena practically had her eyes glued on her new crush Evan Miller, who sat a few tables away from them.
"Have you seen him?"
"Yes, and", Alexia asked. She was not interested in this guy and to be honest, fretful over Serena's obsession for him. He was the new and sexy guy in town and of course Serena decided, that he would be her next boyfriend.
"And? This guy is hot, hot, hot."
"Nope, not really and this is just your vagina speaking. You just wanna bang him and see if can hold a candle to your weird ex- boyfriend."
"Ex- lover not boyfriend. I just wanted to make Evan jealous, but he did not recognize me so I dumped him."
"Thank God, he was such a creep and Dad would have killed you, instead of just grounding you."
"You told uncle Damon that I was grounded?"
"Yeah, of course."
"And the reason why is", Serena asked with eyes wide open.
"Oh come on, like I can hide anything from Dad, he has his eyes and ears everywhere. Besides Mom called your Mom afterwards. You didn't actually think you could keep that a secret", Alexia rolled her eyes. Their mothers were best friends and shared everything with each other since they were little and their fathers were brothers.
"Was uncle Damon angry?"
"A little, but he had to laugh when I told him that uncle Stefan grounded you."
"My dad is crazy, he had no right and to be honest I didn't believe him, when he grounded me. Since when did he turn into this over- protected vampire daddy? That's your dad's job."
Both girls smirked.
"Yeah and it's also my job to make sure that the two of you make it home before it gets dark", Damon said out of nowhere. Of course he did not leave his children out of his sight.
He sat down next to his daughter, but not before kissing both girl's cheeks in welcome.
"Daddy, what are you doing here", Alexia asked, "this is our girl's day and we would like to spend it without you."
"But I don't want to be without you", he winked at the girls and kissed his daughter even harder on her soft cheek. "By the way, you're still grounded cupcake", he directed that part to his niece.
"No, I'm not. Mom allowed me to go out with Ali and I don't care what Dad says", the brown haired teenager responded stubbornly.
"You're still not speaking to Stefan?"
"Absolutely not and I will never talk to him again."
Damon laughed out loud.
"What's so funny", Serena asked a little angry.
Damon only laughed harder. He always liked messing around, especially with the girls and Bonnie of course.
"Uncle Damon", Serena whined and that's when she reminded him of his brother, when they were kids.
"Cupcake, you could never stop talking to Stefan, you're his little girl", he held her hand.
"I'm not little anymore and he doesn't understand it."
"But he's your father, he will always see you as his little girl. Just like I do. He raised you, told you everything, showed you the world. Everything he does revolves around you and your mother. He doesn't want to see you hurt, especially not by some horny guy, who cannot handle his dick."
"It doesn't feel like he wants to prevent me from getting hurt. He's trying to lock me up and not let me live my life."
"That is not true and you know that", now it was Stefan Salvatore who spoke. He lazily walked over to their table and took the seat next to his daughter.
"And what are you doing here", Serena asked, not even surprised to find her father appearing next to her. Where ever Damon was, Stefan was not very far. The brothers were basically inseparably.
"Your uncle was right, you're still grounded and you shouldn't be here."
"I don't listen to you anymore", she replied and crossed her arms in front of her chest.
Stefan chuckled and stroked his daughter's long, dark and straight hair. She looked just like her mother. She was the spitting image of Elena but her eyes were green, just like Stefan's.
"You don't speak to me, you don't listen to me, what am I going to do all day long?"
Serena just shrugged her shoulder, but as she saw her father's sad eyes her hard stares softened. She could never stay mad at him for very long, after all he was her Daddy. Her first love and her hero.
"I miss my little Serena, you have no idea how I suffered since the day you stopped speaking to me. You should ask your mother", Stefan continued.
"Or me", Damon mumbled as he threw an arm over Alexia's shoulder, pulling her against him and cuddled with his beautiful sunshine.
"And why are you trying to lock me up then? Daddy, I'm getting older I need to go out and see the world myself", Serena explained and turned her attention to her father.
"I know and to be honest I don't like it. The world can be such a cruel place, I just want to save you from getting harmed or hurt."
"I know Dad, but there are also good things in the world. You can't prevent me from getting hurt, but when it happens I wish you will be there and comfort me", Serena put her head on Stefan's shoulder, who placed a kiss on top of her head.
"Of course I will. I love you my little Serena."
"I love you too, Daddy, you're my hero", she responded and leaned on him even more.
...
Bonnie sat on her king size bed in her bedroom, while she talked to Elena on the phone.
"I couldn't stop smiling since they came home", Elena said on the other side of the phone.
"I'm happy that they're back on track, the last two days were horrific."
"I know, I couldn't stand seeing both of them so unhappy. It was saddening and it broke my heart."
"Mine too, that's why I just had to call you after Ali came home. I hate seeing them fighting, this is so unusual for them."
"Oh yes, I never saw Stefan like that. He was not angry, he had this fear in his eyes as if Sally will run away and never come back."
"In a few years she will be an adult, I think he can't wrapp his mind around the fact that she's slowly starting to become independent", Bonnie said.
"Exactly. In a few years she could probably have her own family, it's not like he wouldn't like it but he won't see her every single day anymore. She won't be around any longer, like he is used to it right now."
"Poor Stefan and poor you, it won't take long until the same will happen to little miss Alexia."
"You betcha. Oh, she's staying here over night."
"Alexia? Okay, I'm fine with that but Damon didn't tell me."
"Maybe he wanted to surprise you and take you out for dinner."
"No, I don't think so, he probably wants to stay at home and do nothing."
"Yeah, porobably. I have to go and see after the girls. See you tomorrow, Bon and have a good night."
"You too and kiss the girls good night for me."
"I will", Elena replied and hung up.
Bonnie put the phone back on the night stand and began to read a journalistic magazine.
"You read enough Judgy, it's time to relax", her husband whispered in her ear as he leaned down and massaged her bare shoulders. Bonnie put the magazine aside and folded her arms under her head.
"Why didn't you tell me that our daughter will have a sleepover at her cousin's?"
"Because Elena was right", he kissed her left shoulder briefly, "I wanted to surprise you, but instead of going out for diner, which is totally not my thing, I would rather indulge you with my hands", his hands wandered down to her back and drew small circles on the small of her back. Bonnie shiverd, she loved his strong hands and what the did to her.
"With a massage? That's a great idea."
"Oh, it's just the beginning. My hands can do so much more to you", he said only seconds before he turned her on her back and kissed her hard and passionately.
"And what would that be?"
Damon smirked wickedly. His right hand disappeard under her shirt and cupped her bra covered boob. Bonnie moaned, arched her back and smiled widely.
"Did I tell you how gorgeous you are?" Damon gazed down at his wife and continued to knead her boob. "You're such a beauty, a diamant, the love of my life."
"And you are mine", she whispered as he leaned down and started their night full of love and passion.
