Safest in your arms

Elena was shell shocked.. Him! The gorgeous looking man with the pericing blue eyes was the owner of this house.

"I'd love to show it to you, but I have a rush coming from the boat off the island people go explore and come back and shop it's a habit.." Damon tells her " You said you were looking for work, do you know how to waitress? Lex owns a diner and needs a big hand since her cousin Rose moved to new york last week, Shes been short a person for awhile." He told her.

"I do know how. I was a waitress from the time I was 16 years old till i…. " she trailed off she was going to say married but she doesn't want to bring up Nik or how he was.

All of a sudden this ball of hyperness came out of nowhere….

"DADDY!" Yelled Ava

Elena saw this little girl and instantly fell in love she ached for that child she lost. The doctor told her that she would be able to have kids again but who would want her how she looked now .

"Ava! How many times have I told you don't scream in the store?" damon scolded the child

"UMMMM, Like a million. HI! My name is ava, Im 5 years old and your pretty whats your name?" ava rambled on

"I'm Elena." She told her "Thank you damon when would you be able to show me the house? I'd like to look at it and start work asap." She asked

" well I can give you the address and keys and you can go see it if you like it come back we will work on payment or something then its yours." He told her

" Okay great!" she replied

Damon gave her the address and keys and Elena paid for her chips and sandwich and said good bye to Ava who wanted to know when she's coming back to play with her .

As Elena walked out she saw a car she thought she'd never see again in her life

Her Older Brothers car…..
