Chapter 11
"There's nothing wrong with it!" He growled as he pulled it back where he had been offering it to her. He was giving her one of his bears for his niece and she had rejected the gift like it and he weren't good enough!
"That's not what I meant!" Elena told him. "I was just curious about why you got the Pooh Bear? He's one of my favorite characters." Before long, tears spilled from her eyes.
Kol ran a hand through his hair and then held his hands up in surrender, "please don't cry. I didn't get him. I had him. I have several." He admitted to her. He waited to see if she would throw that back in his face - the big bad original vampire cuddles Pooh bears! The only one who hadn't outside his family was Bonnie. Even Nik occasionally riled him about the bears.
Elena stopped crying and hugged him.
"Oh my god! THANK YOU! SHE'LL LOVE IT!" She squealed. "Thank you Kol! Thank you!"
Kol smiled at her. She had just earned another brother.
"You're welcome," he said sincerely. "Now come let me get you off your feet or Elijah will kill me when he gets out of the shower. Although I could always blame it on Klaus."

The entire rest of the matching nursery set had already been assembled along with a very expensive looking British stroller known as a pram.
"This is so beautiful!" She got teary eyed. "How did you all get this done?"
"Vampire darling," he preened. "I can do anything if I put my mind to it."
