Hey Guys! I'm so sorry it took me so long to update but I was away for the holidays. But I've spent my time well with writing the next chapters so all I have to do is just type them in. Here is the first one of the chapters. The next one will follow later this day. Enjoy!
Elena POV
'I'm going to take a shower', I said, deciding it was time to get up after making out with Stefan for hours.
'Okay, honey', Stefan said when I gently made my way out of his arms.
I got up from the bed, grabbed my stuff and got into the bathroom.
'Love you', Stefan called after me.
'Love you too'
I smiled to myself, happy that I was finally able to forget about what Damon did to me for a while and that I could make out with Stefan without feeling scared or something like that. I didn't ask him to join me in the shower though. I didn't want to push my luck. I was afraid that if I'd ask him I would be haunted by memories of that terrible night. That is was too fast for that kind of intimacy.
I stepped into the shower and relaxed as I felt the hot water run down my body. Then I did something I hadn't done before since I found out that I was pregnant, I looked down at my tummy.
Of course I knew that there wasn't anything to see yet since I was only pregnant for five weeks, but the idea of a child, my child, growing in my tummy, it just felt weird. All those times I had thought, dreamed and wished about being a Mom and not it was coming true.
I had lost my hope of ever becoming a mother since I was with Stefan. I didn't want to turn into a vampire because I wanted to have kids but I knew that I would never be strong enough to leave him. I just hoped that one day I would but now it wasn't necessary anymore. Now I could be with Stefan and have my own children.
I gently lay both of my hands on my tummy and smiled. My child.
Stefan POV
When I heard Elena go into the shower I decided it was time for me to get up too. Today I was going to do some research. I wanted to know how Elena could be pregnant since the only persons she had slept with were vampires and vampires weren't able to procreate. Well, that's what they always told us.
I got up from the bed and went downstairs to the library. There must be something about vampires creating children in one of those books.
I grabbed all the books we had with information about vampires in it and spitted through them. After nearly an hour my eyes fell on something. I saw the words 'creating children' and began to read carefully.
Elena POV
When I finished taking a shower and getting dressed I walked down the stairs to go find Stefan. He wasn't in the living room so I went to go take a look in the library. That's where I found him, sitting in one of the many chairs.
When I walked in he looked up at me, smiling from ear to ear. The slight smile I already had on my face grew wider by seeing him this happy. I opened my mouth to ask him why he was so happy but his words stopped me.
'Come here', he said with happiness sounding clearly in his voice.
I walked over to him and he held his arms out for me so I climbed into his lap. He pulled me tight against him with his strong arms.
'There is something I have to tell you', he said and I looked up at him questioningly.
Stefan POV
'There is something I have to tell you', I said. I couldn't wait to tell her. She would be so happy about the first part. The second part I wasn't so sure about. I didn't have any clue about how it would make her feel.
I saw the questioning look in her eyes when she looked up at me and decided to just tell her and start with the part that would make her happy for sure. I turned her around on my lap so that she faced me. Now that I was able to see her facial expression I was ready to tell her.
'When you were taking a shower I found some really interesting information about the child you're carrying. I just wanted to know how it is possible that you're pregnant so I decided to look for some information about that and I found it.'
I thought it was best to take a pause for a minute so I could take a look at her face. It didn't show anything yet. There was still the smile on her face which she came walking in with. When she noticed I was studying her face, her expression changed into one that told me to carry on.
'Only a male vampire is able to create a child because the body of a female vampire has to change to be able to carry a child and since vampires don't age and there body stays exactly the same from the time they turned, a female vampire can't conceive a child. There might of course be an option if a witch is able to cast some sort of spell but as far as I know there isn't one yet and it's not the case right now since you're human. A male vampire can only create a child a few nights a year. When there's a full moon, which you know is really dangerous for vampires because of the werewolves, a vampire can create a child if he makes love to a human.'
I took a pause again and she looked at me with a confused expression.
'You understand what I'm saying, right?'
'Yes, but I don't see why that makes you so extremely happy', she said.
'You don't get it, do you?'
'No, but I also don't know what exactly I should get'
'It wasn't a full moon that night when...', I didn't know how to say it, afraid that I would hurt her if I said 'the night that Damon raped you'.
'... When Damon did what he did to you so that means that the child isn't Damon's but mine', I explained to her.
Elena POV
I slowly let it sink in. The child was Stefan's. It was our child I was carrying. It sounded too good to be true.
'How do you know it wasn't a full moon?', I asked.
'Because I went out hunting that night and I wouldn't have gone out hunting if it was a full moon. That would really be too dangerous.'
My smile grew wider and wider when it finally sank in and I saw his smile growing wider as well. I threw my arms around him and hugged him tightly.
I hadn't felt that happy in a long time and I didn't know I could feel even more happy but when he whispered 'our baby' in my ear I felt my world explode with happiness.
I pulled a little away from him and took his hand and placed them on my tummy with my hands on top of his.
'Our baby', I said and smiled my widest smile at him.
He smiled back at me and I leaned forward to press my lips against his. It was a kiss filled with happiness, love and passion. I pushed my body against him but we both let our hands on my tummy. The feeling of his hands on my tummy where our child was growing felt so good that I got completely carried away in the moment.
I felt Stefan pull away and looked at him to see a pained expression on his face.
'What's wrong?', I asked. He didn't respond as fast as he usually did so I went on.
'There's more', I said. It wasn't a question it was a statement.
He just nodded
