Hey guys! I hope you enjoy, sorry it took awhile! Give me your input? I tried my best to restart Airena's life, tell me what you think! I love you all.
Damon threw down another bottle of whiskey as he glared at the fireplace in pure hate.
It had been thirteen years since he heard the overjoyed laughter of his angel, the four year old he had fallen in love with over the time he had with her.
Thirteen years, he spent drowning away his sorrows and stupidity in alcohol, much worse than he had before he found the bundle of dependence in the forest.
Every day it haunted him, he couldn't forget the feelings he felt when he walked out and she was gone.
He looked everywhere for her, every single day, until Caroline and Stefan had to force him to feed. But he felt even deader inside.
Who could blame him? The only thing keeping him human and sane, went missing from his life because he needed to soak up in a woman's touch, instead of clinging to a child.
But everyday he ached for her, wondering where she was, and if she was still alive, it was driving him insane. He needed her, just as much as she ever needed him: if not more.
"Airena," Piper called as she looked into the room the brunette teenager was occupying, "How do you feel?"
The girl stared at Piper through the full body mirror, adjusting her spring dress that clung to her curved body with ease, casting a small smile at her reflection before letting her soft voice fill the air.
"As feeling felt as you could feel, when you come back to the one place you never wanted to come back to over the cource of your life." Airena sighed, shifting her position to being face-to-face with the woman she had come to cherish.
Piper tilted her head, running her fingers through Airena's long wavy locks tenderly, "I know sweety, but with all things happening, Jason and I couldn't afford anywhere else."
The younger girl nodded, hugging Piper tightly before she shook her head, replacing her frown with a small smile. "Guess I will just have to indure it, all the people I knew here are probably old and gone."
Oh how she hoped. Airena couldn't find herself wanting to face her past, she wasn't ready. Only Katherine was obliged to interupt her future life. Not Damon, not the man that had abandoned her when she needed him the most.
She hated him... Or atleast, she thought she did.
"Com'on Aire," Jason called from downstairs as Airena put on her brown boots and shut her new bedroom door behind her, trailing her way down the steps softly.
She stopped infront of a man atleast in his early fourties, that was smiling down at her with a careing expression written all over his face. "Good morning, Jay."
Airena greeted as he held out her backpack to take with her to school.
"Morning Aire, you ready for a new day here in Mystic Falls?" His voice was filled with care, but Airena noted the sarcasm slightly and rolled her hazel eyes.
Ignoring him, Airena put her bag over her shoulders and pecked his cheek before she met up with Sam.
Piper and Jason were Katherine's way of showing Airena that she cared, placing the four year old in their care away from Damon's senses. And it worked.
In both scenario's. Piper attatched to Airena like any sane woman would, and Jason found the child suitable to be put under him and his wife's wing, instantly placing her in Sam's brotherly arms.
And that was exactly what Sam was to Airena, her brother. Wether it be blood or not, she loved the family with all of her being.
