Please after reading, read my Author's note. There are important ideas you can give your feedback on to me if you'd like to.
As Damon and I entered the kitchen Isabella had a huge grin on her face. She was leaning over the counter pouring herself a cup of coffee while talking to Erik. Her smile was contagious because I too found myself smiling. I sat down next to Erik as Damon went to kiss his mother's cheek.
"So how was your morning?" Isabella asked trying to keep the innocent look going but her mischievous eyes failed her. I glowered at her but before I could say my 2 cents Erik's once droopy eyes widened.
"Ewww. No need for sharing!" he whined. Damon in return let out a chuckle. I looked up at him and smiled. I knew our relationship was far from perfect, but we were going to try.
"So Elena how are Caroline and Klaus doing? Their kids?" Isabella asked curiously.
"Oh, they're doing great. They just recently got back from Rome. The kids are good too. Raman and Claire are such cuties."
"Cuties? Yuck. Mommy do we have to call them that?" Erik complained. He was so much like Damon.
"They are cute, but you're cuter" I winked at him. In return Erik stuck out his tongue at me. I laughed and tried to kiss him but he ran like hell out of the kitchen.
A deep chuckle overruled ours and we glanced up to see Giuseppe in the doorway. "Damon may I have a word." He asked looking kind of nervous. Damon just stared at him for a moment before nodding."
Isabella and I shared a shrug as the men both left the kitchen. I looked up from my coffee and knew that I was about to have to share some details.
I let out a sigh, "We're going to try Isabelle. We both love each other and hopefully it will be enough to fix it." I smiled while looking out to where Damon disappeared too.
"He's trying to fix it you know" she murmured following my gaze. I gave her a confused look because I just told her that fact. "Giuseppe, I mean. He's trying to make amends with our sons. Stefan won't be that bad. He took after his father, but Damon, well he was my son." She clarified.
I felt shock jolt up through my body. It never occurred to me that Giuseppe would want to make amends but it all made sense now. He offered for us to stay a couple more weeks here even though Damon could have gone back a while ago. I smile alongside with Isabella. I wanted Damon to not be bitter with his father too. Maybe just maybe this family was going to be whole again.
Damon's POV
I didn't understand why my father wanted a word with me. My business plan ended a few weeks back. "Is something the matter?" I asked breaking the tense silence.
"This family." I looked up in shock and winced knowing the direction of this conversation was going in. He took a deep breath before starting. "I screwed up. But now there's Erik in the picture so I have to fix it."
I closed my eyes and listened to the dreaded speech.
Elena's POV
I kept looking at the door which Damon disappeared through. Would he be okay? I billion thoughts raced through my head. I turned away to take a calming sip of tea when the door opened. I snapped my head around and saw Damon step through the doorway. I tried to read his face but he hid his emotions well. I could read Damon pretty well so I figured out pretty quickly that he was confused and conflicted with whatever just happened.
I was out of my chair soon enough and I grabbed Damon's hand and led him through the living room and then upstairs to Erik's bedroom. Damon looked at me confused. I just gave him a smile in return.
"Erik, honey? Your dad and I were wondering if you wanted to go to the park." I asked.
Erik jumped up from the trucks he was playing with and starting to run around looking for his airplane. "Yes! I'd love to fly the plane at the park!" he exclaimed excitedly.
I looked up at Damon and he smiled and didn't question my motives any longer. We went back down the stairs and made sure we had Band-Aids and coats. The saying always says that if you are prepared nothing bad will happen. We reached the car and buckled in.
When we got to the park Erik quickly sped off to the slides while Damon and I found ourselves a spot under a tree. I came here to get his mind off the very thing I wanted to know so badly. 'He will tell me when he's ready' I told myself.
"Elena?" he asked. I zoned back in to see his face.
"Hmm? Sorry! I zoned out for a bit."
"That's okay. So I wanted to tell you that we might be coming here more often." He said vaguely and I couldn't help but smile at him in return. They made up! After all this time they fixed it! This only gave me more hope for Damon and my relationship.
"This wouldn't have to do with your little Father Son bonding time would it?" I asked coyly. He reached out and smacked the back of my head.
"I don't know what you're talking about." He smirked. I then noticed he was looking behind me with amused eyes. I turned my body to look at what was so funny and then I was on the ground/
"Gotcha!" Erik yelled on top of me.
"Damon help!" I screamed slash giggled.
"Nope" he replied while biting into an apple he found in my purse.
"Hey! I was going to eat that! Erik yelled at him.
"Get him!" I encouraged my son! I finally felt the weight release from my chest and Damon was then tackled.
I then continued to watch and I knew anyone watching us would be jealous of our perfect family. I smiled at the thought.
I know I haven't updated in a very long time… the truth is I'm not really feeling Delena as much right now. I'm really obsessing over Kalijah, Kennett, Klaroline. This doesn't mean I don't like them because let's face it I am a ture Damon fan and if Elena makes Damon happy then I will ship them… of course I hate Elena in the show so that really had to do. This story of course is my own character of Elena (actually owned by Julie Plec) but I own her personality in this story. The next chapter will probably be the last chapter before the epilogue. Summer is almost here so I'll try to get the last Ch. Up this weekend. And then hopefully the Epilogue next week or if I'm really good I'll get it up also this weekend. I will try since I've been such a bad updater and the reviews make me smile every day and you guys have stuck with me through this painfully slow (updating wise) story.
-Now those who skip these long Author Notes Please Read the next short one b/c it's for me to hear your voice!-
The next chapter will be a sort of flashback and storyline of their whole relationship. Elena will be reflecting on her and Damon's story. I know at the beginning of my story you guys wanted flashbacks and I promised some and I gave some. This is your chance to tell me what you want to see from the gaps of their relationship.
