Stefan was gone.

He left just like that, leaving everyone in the mist. Elena, Caroline and Bonnie were perplex, not understanding what was wrong with him. But Damon was hurt. He thought Stefan would be as happy as he was. In his head Stefan would jump up like crazy and hug Damon to death. He would want Bonnie to move into the Broading House, so he could take care of his future niece or nephew.

And now that.

"Did he just ran out on us", Caroline asked confused and focused on Elena. "What is wrong with him?"

"I don't know", Elena replied. She stood up and was about to to go after him.

"Maybe you should go instead of Elena", Bonnie suggested as she kept holding her boyfriend's hand. She felt how stiff und tight he got around his shoulders.

"Little fucker", he muttered and let go of Bonnie's hand. In vampire speed he was out of the house.

"Did something happen the last days? Something that might trigger this reaction", Caroline continued.

"No. Nothing. He was just as always, you know that Care. You have been here today and yesterday. Did you notice anything?"

"No, but I am not his girlfriend."

"Why do you have to blame me", Elena shot back.

"I am not blaming you, I am just..."

"Guys, stop fighting", Bonnie interrupted. "Only Stefan knows the reason why he fled after the baby news, and until he and Damon are not back let us not assume the worst case scenario."

Both girls agreed.

"Alright, can we gush about the big news then", Caroline jumped up like a little rabbit.

"What is there to gush", Bonnie rolled her eyes.

"One, you are having a baby and two, you are having it with Damon freaking Salvatore."

"Don't I know that already."

"Oh my god. Since when do you know", she carried on and could not get enough of the good news. Caroline already saw herself as the Godmother and generous antie, she would shower the baby with adorable gifts.

"Yesterday I was at a doctor's appointment and she told me that I was pregnant", Bonnie smiled. "I was so irritated. I always thought sleeping with a vampire is the best birth control ever."

"Well we all thought that", Elena mumbled. She came to stand next to her best friend and hugged her tightly.

"I am so happy for you, Bonnie."

"Thank you", she responded and they took Caroline into their hugging circle.

"If you need anything, we are here for you. You know that right?"

"I do. Damon wants me to move in", the witch revealed as she let go of her friends. They all decided to sit indian style infront of the Salvatore fireplace.

"Into the Broading House? Oh yes please!"

"Yeah, but I don't know if that is the right enviroment to raise a child."

"Why... what do you mean", Elena asked.

"It is not save here. This house practially has open doors for every single creature in Mystic Falls. I don't want to be worry all the time", she admitted.

"That's understandable", Elena nodded. "So how will you handle the whole situation?"

"Damon and I have not really spoken about it. I think I will stay at my house for now, we still have about six months to go until he or she arrives", Bonnie caressed her tiny belly. It was so surreal that there was an acutal human growing inside her womb.

"He is happy right", Caroline asked but was rudely interrupted by Damon reentering the house.

Alone.

"Damn right I am", he sounded frustrated. His hair was wild and he ran his hand through them.

All three girls turned their heads as soon as they heard his voice.

"No sign of my dearest brother. His ass is gone." His first instinct was to grab a bottle bourbon and drink it in one gulp, but Bonnie was there and her pregnancy was a reason to limit his alcohol consume.

He walked over to the girl group and sat behind his girlfriend, pulling her back to his chest. Both of his hands slowly crawled along her waist until they finally rested on her belly.

"Are you okay", Bonnie asked him and turned her head to face him.

"Now I am", he bend over and kissed her sweetly on her lips.

She smiled and turned her head back. "Damon..."

The said vampire his face in the crook of her neck. "I don't know how to feel. He stormed out and I could not find him. That is not what I expected from him."

"No one did", Elena said. "And what are we going to do now? Where can we find him?"

"There is a reason why he left, maybe we should leave him alone for some time. Not too long of course", Bonnie voiced.

"I feel so bad that I don't know what is going on with my boyfriend", Elena made a sad face.

"It's not your fault, Elena. Stefan just has his own damn head, he will come around", Damon pointed out. Then all of the sudden he pulled himself up to his feet and took his green eyed girlfriend with him. He swaped her off her feet, making her squeal in suprise.

"Now you worry about my baby brother on your own. Bon Bon and I need some alone time", he sang as he carried the witch bridal style up the stairs to his bedroom.

"Was that necessary", she frowned although it was sweet to be carried by her boyfriend.

"Yes, you need to rest. Too much drama and stress is not good for you and certainly not good for the baby", he warned and placed her gently on his king sized bed.

"What about Stefan, why could you not find him",she asked and pulled the covers over her body. Damon was right, she needed a healthy enviroment to make the pregnancy as uncomplicated as possible.

"I have no idea, I was trying to follow his scent but it was not strong enough. I can tell that he was really fast and that he left the town way north", he shrugged his shoulder trying to sooth his thoughts. Whatever was going on with his brother will he be explained sooner or later. His main concern with the pregnant woman in his bed.

"Wanna talk about it, how you feel?"

"No, not right now and not today", he admitted and lay down next to Bonnie.

"Okay." She snuggled closely to his chest, enjoying his strong arms around her body.

"We should talk about the furture."

"Should we", she raised her brow at him.

"Yep. We need to go house hunting since you obviously don't want to move into the Broading House. With me, my lost brother and the doppelganger."

"What about my house? It's safe there and we will not have to spend thousands of dollars on a new home."

"Have you seen your house Bon? It's tiny as hell, the baby needs some space and there is none."

"Excuse me, I have two bedrooms in addition to the living room and my bedroom. There is no need for more space. We are going to be a threesome not twenty people, Damon."

"Like I said, tiny as hell."

Bonnie rolled her eyes. "I don't want to move out. I like my house."

"I know you hate changes but sometimes they have to happen. This is the start of a new period in both of our lives."

"If you want to start fresh we could always move away from Mystic Falls", Bonnie stated.

Damon's eyes grew big, that was nothing he expected to come from Bonnie's mouth. He hated Mystic Falls from day one he arrived, but his brother was here. He did not know anyone else who slightly liked or accepted him. As time passed the town became his home and with getting Bonnie Bennett he actually felt glad that he came.

"Are you serious", he asked with delight in his ocean blue eyes.

"Does it look I am joking?" He face was straight. She was dead serious. "I want the baby to be safe and live a normal life. Mystic Falls is too dangerous. We are constantly on the risk to lose our lives. I cannot perform magic every single time whenever Klause or who ever is on a crazy spree to kill you or Stefan. I don't want that anymore, Damon. Enough is enough."

Damon agreed to all of that. With the baby comes new responsibilities and he did not want to raise his child with fearing for his or her life. And he did not want to die and leave Bonnie alone with the baby.

"You are right. Mystic Falls is not safe for you, the baby and me", he clapped his hands together. "How about Los Angeles?"

"LA? Too fancy for my liking. I thought about New York. Big city, but we should move to the quieter area, live in a cute house and have a nice garden."

"Domestic Judgy, sounds wonderful", kissed her cheek. "You are going to be a fantastic mother."

"I will do my best."
