Hello lovelies! I'm making it up to you for forgetting to update a chapter.
Chapter Four
They had been married for ten years now, he was happy with her. She had given him two beautiful daughters and two handsome boys. He was having a Christmas party for his employees.
"You're breathtakingly beautiful, Mrs. Mikaelson." Elijah said as he kissed Elena's hand.
"Thank you, husband." Elena said.
"What is it? I know something is troubling you."
"She keeps eyeing you."
He kissed her. "I'm still crazy about you. Darling, I've been thinking, could we make another child?"
"Yes, I'd love that." Elena said.
"We could leave right now." Elijah said.
"Let's retire to our room." Elena said.
They left the hotel ballroom and headed towards their room. The following morning they were woken up by Elijah's phone ringing.
"Hello."
"Daddy, when are you coming home?"
It was his 7 year old daughter. He was half asleep, half awake.
"In a few hours will be there."
"You promise?"
"I promise."
"Bye Daddy."
"Bye." Elijah said and then hung up. "Good morning."
"Good morning." She replied.
He kissed her, few hours later they were getting ready to head back home to their family. He had to wait to know if they were going to be parents again, the wait was long and then she had wanted to wait for the three months to pass before telling their family and friends. He was in his office and his secretary was giving him some papers.
"Good morning, Matt."
"Good morning. Caroline told me the good news about the baby. Congratulations."
"Thank you. We're really excited. Emma wants a little sister."
"I should start working on that case."
"Good luck."
"Thanks."
The time seemed to go rather fast, they had found out that they were having another baby girl.
"Hey, you're busy?" Elena questioned Elijah from the door frame as he was giving instructions to his secretary.
"For my lovely wife? Never." Elijah said. "Where are the kids?"
"They're with Niklaus and Hayley."
"So you want to have a lunch date with me?"
"Yes, husband."
"Excuse me, I'll be back later." Elijah said getting up and walking towards Elena, he massaged her belly and kissed her.
"What is it?" Elijah questioned.
"The kids want to go to Boston for their yearly vacation." Elena replied.
"It's already too close to your due date."
"It's only for a week, besides we're not even going on an airplane."
"You really want to do this?"
"Yes."
"What about my family?"
"They are on board with this. Your Mom will catch a flight to Boston and meet us there."
"I am not completely that happy about that."
"So we can start planning?" Elena questioned.
He rolled his eyes. "Yes."
"Thank you, babe." Elena said and kissed him.
After lunch, he headed back to his office. He was working on a very hard case when Matt stopped to say goodbye. He also got up and began to walk towards the door. Once he got home, Elena and the kids were making plans.
"Daddy!" Emma said and ran towards him.
"What are you doing?" Elijah questioned as he picked her up.
"We're writing down what we want to do for our vacation."
"Can we cancel it until the baby arrives?"
"No Daddy."
Elijah glanced at Elena, she was holding on to her laugh. After planning their trip and having dinner, Elijah and Elena put their kids to sleep.
"They are excited." Elena said.
"And so are you." Elijah replied.
"Yes."
Before he knew it, the day of the trip had arrived. It was early Saturday morning and the kids and his wife were excited, he on the other hand was panicking. The kids all got up without being asked and got their things down the stairs within minutes. Elena gave him a look when she saw him.
"Just in case, she decides it's time." Elijah said.
They were waiting for the rest of the family to head out, they made continuous stops along the way as they were driving with kids and Elena being pregnant. Finally they were in Boston.
"When is gramma coming, Daddy?" Emma questioned.
"Her flight is about to land. Do you want to go with me and pick her up?"
"Yes, Daddy."
They headed towards town, towards the airport to pick up his mother. They said hello and headed back home. They would take turns making breakfast and lunch, their dinners would be out in the town. It was already Wednesday and it was dinner time.
"Elijah." Elena said as he opened the car door.
"Yes darling."
"You were right about not coming, my water just broke." Elena said.
He looked around to his family.
"Change of plans, family. We're heading to the hospital."
They all moved as quickly as they could and headed towards the hospital. He got there as fast as he could. The Doctor in the ER checked Elena.
"The baby is coming fast. We need to act fast, Elijah." The Doctor said. "Tatia, get everything ready."
"Silas, is the baby okay?" Elijah questioned.
"Yes she is." He replied.
They got Elena ready for her to have the baby.
"No epidural." Elena said.
"It's going to be painful." Tatia said.
"I've done it for four times, I know and I said no." Elena screamed at her.
"Okay."
Elijah kissed Elena's forehead and three hours later the baby was born. He had another little girl, they passed Elena to the recuperating room. He had texted his family about the baby being born and he was waiting for Elena to be passed to her room.
"You did amazing, you are amazing, darling." Elijah said. "I love you."
"I love you, too." Elena said.
Once she was in her room, he texted them to give them the number of her room.
"She's so pretty, Mommy." Emma said and kissed her little cheek. "Hello Ava Grace."
The rest of his kids got to hold and kiss their new sister.
"She'll come down." Elena said standing right in front of him and got to fix his hair with her hand.
"Yesterday, I was changing her diaper." Elijah said.
"You blinked." Elena replied.
She looked at him and she was still so in love with him.
"Can I put him in jail?"
"For what, Elijah?"
"Stealing my daughter."
She gave him a look. "I was her age when we conceived her."
"Oh come on parents, not right now." Emma said walking down the stairs. "She's ready. Mom, we got to get going."
"Bye husband." Elena said and kissed him.
"Save me a dance."
"I will." Elena replied.
Elena and Emma walked towards the door. Her other three kids were already waiting for them, their third eldest was his father mini version.
"Why do we have to dress like monkeys?" Emmett questioned.
"Because that's what your sister wants."
"Why not a tie? I hate this thing." Emmett replied as he got inside the car.
"You can take it off when the wedding is over." Elena said as they got inside the car.
They headed towards the church, there were people already waiting for the bride and the groom was already there.
"She's coming right?"
"Yes." Elena answered. "You know her father would try to convince her not to marry."
"He never liked me."
"He never liked the idea of his daughter marrying anyone at all. If, he could he would had sent her to a convent. He likes you, it's only that she's his little girl."
Everyone started saying that the bride was about to arrive.
"You should be inside already."
"Okay." He said and then hurried inside the church.
"He's here right?" She asked as soon as she saw her mother.
"Yes." Elena said and then kissed her daughter's cheek. "You look beautiful, my little ladybug."
"Thank you, Mama."
The wedding ceremony was beautifully done.
"She's really happy." Elena said to Elijah.
"I've noticed that."
Elijah had noticed that his Emma was dancing with one of her brother's friends.
"Before you know it we would be having another wedding." Elena said. "It's part of life."
She wanted to laugh at his face.
"At least I have my Ava Grace."
The song ended and they were stopped by Ava.
"Daddy, Daddy, when can I marry like my sister?"
Elena tried to muffle a laugh.
"When you're old, older." Elijah replied.
"Oh, okay." She said and went to play with her cousins.
"You're having a lot of fun." Elijah said.
"Only a little."
He kissed her.
"They're ready to fly, it's just that I am not ready."
"Yes I know how you feel."
After a few more hours the newlyweds left the venue before the party ended.
"Mom, can I take off this thing?" Emmett questioned.
"Yes, you can."
They continued dancing, he still made her feel butterflies in her stomach every time.
"Daddy, Daddy. I know who I want to marry."
"Who?" Elena questioned.
"Micah." She replied and walked away.
"She's not lost." Elena said.
Elijah gave her look.
"Okay, okay. I won't say anything."
They continued dancing until Elena felt a little tug in her dress, they stopped dancing to look down.
"Mommy, I sleepy." Ava said. "Daddy can dance with sister."
She gave a look to Elijah, Elena picked up her little girl, Elena walked to the table and as soon as she sat down her little girl was fast asleep. She watched her man dance with his daughter.
"Hey, are you having fun?" Elijah questioned.
"Yeah, watching you dance with your daughter and with this one asleep."
"She's something else." Elijah said.
"You were the one that wanted the extra child." Elena replied.
"I didn't hear you complain."
"No, I loved making her."
"I know." Elijah said. "We should start planning our trip to New York."
"Yes." Elena said.
The party ended.
"Everything was beautiful." Rebekah said. "We had a lot of fun."
They all headed home. The kids went straight to bed. Elijah helped her put Ava in her bed, then headed to their room to get ready to go to bed. They kissed goodnight. The following morning, they were woken up by their little girl.
"Daddy, daddy I want pancakes."
"Okay, okay were getting up."
They got up. She made sure her Daddy made the pancakes.
"What's happening here?" Emma questioned.
"Ava made your Dad make pancakes."
"Nice." Emma said. "I want some too."
"Me three." Emmett said.
"Me four."
"Okay, okay." Elijah said. "But someone has to help me set up the table."
"You." Ava said to Emmett.
Emmett was going to reply but one look from Elena and silence him.
"You have to help me."
"Piggy back." Ava said.
"Piggy back." He replied.
Between the four of them they set the table. Elena took that time to go and stand beside Elijah.
"Who would had thought a one night could end like this?"
"Not me." Elijah replied. "It has been the greatest years of my life."
"Mine too and I'm happy with the family we have." Elena said.
"It's too early for your mushy." Emma said.
So this was the original end of the story, there's two remaining chapters.
