Just Once
Chapter Two: Damon Decides
What was a guy to do? He had finally seduced the girl of his dreams only to find out that vampire can procreate.
He could either become a father to this child or leave Mystic Falls and never look back.
Damon came to a final conclusion on what to do. He had to tell Elena his final decision.
He walked down the stairs and out the door ignoring Stefan's constant asking about what was going on as he ran to Elena's house.
Pregnant. I'm freaking pregnant!
Damon got me pregnant and he wouldn't even act seriously for two minutes while I tell him. I bet he's already fled Mystic Falls and is never coming back.
Maybe I should just give up on it. Have an abortion; Damon can't possibly want to keep it. Just save myself time and money. I won't be able to handle the child if Damon doesn't want to help. I want to keep this child so badly.
That Dear Diary is what happened in the past hour or so.
-Elena.
Elena stopped writing and placed her diary to the side. It may be only be 3:30 in the afternoon but she needed some sleep.
She let a few tears leak out before she drifted off.
She barley managed a few minutes of sleep until there was a knock at her window.
She opened her window to Damon sitting there. "Can I come in?"
Elena nodded and Damon hopped into the bedroom and smiled at her.
Elena gave a weak smile to him and walked back to her bed.
"Elena." Damon said.
"Damon." Elena said as she sat down on her bed and placed her diary to the side.
"How long have you known?" Damon asked pacing around her room.
"A few hours." Elena simply said.
Damon nodded and sat beside her and grabbed her hand.
Elena looked at him weird when he started rubbing her palm with his thumb.
"I want to be apart of this." Damon simply said as he placed his free hand on her stomach.
Elena looked over to Damon and cocked her head.
"I'm serious." Damon said as he grabbed her hand with both of his.
"It'll ruin you reputation of Mystic Falls most eligible bachelor." Elena said with a smile.
"I don't care. I'm going to have this baby with you." Damon said.
Elena smiled and wrapped her arms around Damon. "Thank you." She whispered as she held him tight.
Damon smiled knowing this wouldn't be easy but he wanted to do it. He never had the chance to grow up, and this was his chance.
Elena pulled back from Damon and smiled. Damon gave her arm and rub and looked around her room.
"Who else knows?" Damon asked.
"Caroline." Elena simply said.
"That's it?"
Elena nodded in response.
"So when do you want to leave?" Damon asked as he got up from the bed and walked around.
"What?" Elena asked as she also got up.
"You're moving in with me, just incase something happens."
"I can't. That's asking a little too much of you."
"I told you I'm going to be apart of it. You can either sleep in my room, Stefan's room or the guest room."
"Damon…"
"Don't fight about it Elena. You're moving in." Damon said.
Elena sighed knowing that she wouldn't be able to win with Damon.
Stefan was walking around the boarding house looking for something to do. But his mind wouldn't get off how odd Damon and Elena were acting today.
Elena usually always went for lunch and Damon always makes some sarcastic remark. Something was wrong.
Stefan grabbed a book and sat down on the couch and finally calmed himself down for about nine seconds until the door opened.
"Damon?" Stefan called from the parlor.
"Can I help you?" Damon called as he placed a suitcase on the floor and the door shut.
"Just checking to see who it was." He called.
"Whatever." He called back.
Then Stefan heard some talking. He listened in carefully but he couldn't make out the female voice over the stomping going up the stairs.
Stefan rolled his eyes and continued listening to the conversation upstairs.
"The guest room?" Damon asked with a pout.
"Yes the guest room." Elena said with a laugh.
"Well I'm just across the hall." Damon said with a wink.
"Nice try." She said with a laugh.
Damon gave her a cheesy smile and laughed.
Stefan walked up the stairs and saw Elena and Damon laughing in the guest room.
"Hey guys." Stefan said a little concerned.
"Hi." Elena said with a warm smile.
"What are you doing?"
"She's moving in." Damon said with a duh tone as Elena grabbed the suitcase and moved it.
Damon jumped up and said, "No, you can't do that."
"Ok, mom." Elena said as Damon placed the suitcase on the bed for her.
"Is there something wrong?" Stefan asked after witnessing the suitcase incident.
Elena and Damon looked over to Stefan and Damon smirked, "You'll find out."
Stefan frowned as Elena jabbed him in the stomach. "He has to find out eventually."
"Find out what?" Stefan said.
Damon looked at Elena and said, "You want to tell him?"
"I'm pregnant." Elena simply said as she grabbed some hangers from the closet.
Stefan's face dropped and he went pale. "Shouldn't you be moving in with the father?"
"I am." Elena said a little quieter.
"Apparently we can procreate." Damon said with a smirk.
"He's the father?" Stefan said breathlessly.
Elena just nodded and Stefan's face dropped.
"We weren't together, you were gone and I was drunk." Elena said.
"You two were drunk?"
"Is that surprising?" Damon asked with a smirk.
"For Elena yes. I still love you Elena. I would be a much better father!" Stefan said while glaring at Damon.
"Whoa, this is my kid Stefan. I am not going to let you take it. You're still apart of this. You're Uncle Stefan." Damon said with a growl.
"Let's leave it up to Elena. I personally think you can't handle it." Stefan said as he walked up to Damon almost hissing.
Both guys turned to Elena and she frowned. "Stefan, you have to understand that Damon's the father. He wants to be apart of it and I trust him to go through with it."
Stefan's face dropped and Elena walked up to him and said, "I broke up with you for a reason. I love you Stefan but I'm no longer in love with you."
Stefan frowned and nodded. "If Damon flakes out, I'll still be around." Then he walked out of the door.
Damon tried to lunge for Stefan but Elena stopped him. "Damon calm down!" She begged.
Damon calmed down knowing that Elena wouldn't let go of him and he would hurt her and the baby.
"He pissed me off." Damon muttered and then turned to Elena and she wrapped his arms around her.
"I'm not going to run, I promise." Damon whispered into her hair.
"I know." She said with a smile.
They just stood there in each other's arms until Elena pulled back. "I have to tell Jenna and everyone, see what their reaction is."
"Want me to come?" Damon asked.
"No, I don't think that would really help the situation." Elena said.
"Call me if anything happens, I don't want anything to happen to my little Damon Jr." He said as he placed a hand on Elena's stomach.
Elena laughed and said, "We are not naming it Damon Jr."
"Well since we haven't picked, it'll be Damon Jr. until then." He said with a smirk.
"See you later." She laughed as she walked out of her new room.
Damon smirked knowing this was going to be a long ride.
A Few Minutes Later
"What's wrong Elena?" Jenna asked as Elena walked inside.
"I need to tell you something and I'm not sure how you're going to take it." Elena said just as Jeremy walked into the kitchen.
"Promise I won't get angry." Jenna said with a smile.
"I made a mistake. I got really hammered about three weeks ago."
Jenna nodded for her to continue as Jeremy grabbed a sandwich from the fridge.
"And I was with Damon…" She let her sentence trail of to see if Jenna would catch on.
"Elena. You're pregnant?" Jenna asked as her eyes bulged.
Jeremy dropped his sandwich and he looked over to Elena. Elena smiled weakly and said, "Yea."
Jenna nodded and sat back in the chair she had just sat down in. "Are you ready for this? I technically can't control you anymore. You don't live with me and you're legally obligated to do what you want."
"Yes, Damon said he wants to help. Even Stefan's willing, I'll have a lot of help."
"If you need anything I'll be right here." Jenna said.
"Thanks Jenna." Then Elena turned to Jeremy. "You ok?"
"I'm going to be an uncle." Jeremy stopped for a minute. "Awesome!" He said as he grabbed Elena and put her in a huge hug.
"Ok Jeremy, you're going to squeeze it out of me." Elena said with a laugh.
"Oh, sorry." Jeremy said as he backed off of her.
"I have to go. I have about three more people to tell." Elena said with a smile.
Elena and Jenna said their goodbyes and Elena walked out the door. Next stop was either to see Bonnie or Matt.
Maybe she should call Bonnie before visiting.
She pulled out her phone and looked through her contacts list until she finally saw it.
Ring, ring, Elena was now freaking out that she wasn't going to answer but she finally replied on the final ring.
"Hello?"
"Bonnie can I talk to you?"
"Elena I told you to let me go." Bonnie said emotionlessly.
"I really need to speak to you. It's important." Elena said.
"Tell me." Bonnie said.
"It's more of something I have to tell you in person, where are you?"
"Meet me at the grill in 5." She said as she hung up the phone.
Elena frowned as she got into her car and drove to the grill.
Damon was walking around the house looking around to see if there were enough rooms in the house for a kid.
There were only three rooms. His, Stefan and now Elena's. He was confused, what was a guy to do? Buy a new house?
Then it hit him; he would get someone to build him the perfect house for himself, Elena and Damon Jr.
He smirked at the Damon Jr. bit and picked up his phone.
Time to find a contractor.
Elena arrived at the grill to see Bonnie and Matt sitting at a table in the back of the restaurant.
"Hey." Elena said as she walked up to them.
Matt gazed up to Elena and smiled. "Hi."
"I am so glad that you're both here."
"Can we make it quick? I have a hair appointment in 10 minutes." Bonnie glared.
"I know you're upset but just listen to me. I'm pregnant." Elena said trying to just get in and out, especially with Bonnie blaming Damon for her grams death.
Bonnie stopped glaring and her eyes grew wide. "What?"
"I'm pregnant." Elena repeated and then looked at the absolutely shocked expression on Matt's face.
"Congratulations for you and Stefan." Matt said with a frown.
Elena didn't say anything and Bonnie returned to her glare. "You have to be kidding me. It's not Stefan."
Matt's eyes shot open and he murmured something to himself.
"Stefan and I broke up about a month ago and while he was out I got really drunk, with Damon." Elena said wondering what Bonnie would say.
"Congrats I guess. I have a hair appointment." Bonnie said as she walked out of the Grill.
Matt looked back to Elena and frowned. "Damn Elena, looks like you have a huge mistake to handle."
"I know." She simply said as she grabbed her phone.
"I don't know what's happening between you and Bonnie and it's none of my business but she really doesn't seem pleased with you." Matt stated.
"It's been hard." Elena said to Matt as Caroline walked and sat where Bonnie was previously sitting.
"Did you tell him?" Caroline mouthed.
Elena nodded and looked at the both of them and said, "I have to go, and I'll be seeing you."
Elena walked out of the grill and into Bonnie and she instantly started yelling.
"Are you out of your freaking mind?"
Ok, hope you like the update! Review please!
