~ I wanted to get this up yesterday, but I was trying not to make Damon seem OOC when it came to a certain scene (You'll find out when you read it) and plus there were a few characters that I wanted to add that I haven't really had in scenes with Chelsea. Hopefully you'll love the scenes (:

WickedlyMinx: Well, I can definitely say that they will all be surprised.. but a few of them will be supportive (like her brother) and others will kind of freak out and deny it. I am actually looking forward to typing some of the reactions.

BloodMoonWanes: I hope that before this story ends for season 4... that one of the future chapters become your favorite over this one... lol They may be starting a family... but I'm bringing Chelsea into the spin-off... so we will have to see where that leads.

Nyamartian: Well, Klaus is impulsive and like any other person... he will say things that he will later regret. He's just lucky that Chelsea overheard the conversation with Elijah. Damon will find out about the baby... but I don't know if it will be because Chelsea tells him, she lets it slip on accident, or he hears it from someone else before Chelsea decides to tell him. Maybe no-humanity Elena will pick-up on the pregnancy somehow and then bring it up in front of Damon before Chelsea can tell him. The Damon scene in the finale (Graduation) will be good-bye... but I think mainly to their relationship. They will more than likely stay in contact with each other, but we will have to see. Hopefully I can get Chelsea to be on good terms with all the characters by the end of season 4... except for maybe Elena...

Sayomi-hime: The spin-off will be mainly Klaus/Chelsea at first but as it goes on there will be seeds for the triangle. I'm going to try have Chelsea and Elijah bond first... mainly as friends, but we will see how it goes. I'm hoping that with the pregnancy, she will be more careful with her magic because she doesn't want anything bad to happen to the baby. Hopefully I can get her and Bridget (her brother's fiance) to talk about it. Hopefully I can get Dylan and Bridget to make appearances in the spin-off... rather it's a phone call or in person. Because this is in-line with the season.. I can't update until after the episodes air. But I do try to update my other stories while I don't update this one... which they will be getting more updates over the summer before TVD season 5 starts and season 1 of The Originals.

Anna.B: I don't want to have any strain between Klaus and Chelsea until the spin-off... the way I'm thinking about it, it should only be a little bit though. Chelsea will be in Mystic Falls and I was thinking of having her with the Salvatores... sort of helping them torture Elena. I was also thinking about Elena picking up on the pregnancy and then mentioning it in front of Damon, who would be surprised by it. I have two ideas on how he should find out.. so we'll see what one I go with... lol Damon will react badly... but I don't think he would call it an abomination. I was thinking about having Chelsea end on good terms with everyone who will be staying in Mystic Falls... except for maybe Elena. Hopefully I can squeeze a scene or two with Chelsea's brother and his fiance before the season 4 finale and hopefully I can have a couple of scenes with them in the spin-off to (: I know Rebecca is in the spin-off so I think both her and Elijah will help with Chelsea. Rebecca more in a sisterly way. It might start out with Elijah helping Chelsea in a brotherly way and who knows... it might develop into more as Klaus tries to take down Marcel, which Chelsea will sort of have a part in. I'm not really a fan of Marcel either... and I don't think he'll make my list of top 10 favorite characters from the TVD world... I always look forward to your reviews (:

~ I actually wrote two paragraphs for this chapter before the episode aired. (: There really isn't any events from the episode in it...but I think that it will make it better since it's mainly original scenes... kind of... lol

~ There are scenes with: Chelsea and No-humanity Elena with Damon, Damon and Chelsea, Chelsea and her brother with his fiance, Chelsea/Klaus, and some scenes with some characters that you've been wanting Chelsea to have a scene with (: I hope you love them (:
~ I actually wrote the Chelsea/No-humanity Elena with Damon scene before I worked on the rest of the story... just to let you know (:

ENJOY!

Chelsea's POV

I told Nik that I wanted to go back to Mystic Falls to graduate. He didn't want me leave because he wanted to make sure that our baby was safe, but I told him that it was important to me. After an active night, he reluctantly let me go back to Mystic Falls. I told him that I would keep in contact with him until graduation, when I was going to officially move in with him in New Orleans. It was important to me not only to graduate, but to have some normal time before I moved in with him. I also had to tell my brother about me being pregnant, which I knew was probably going to be a shock to him.

I couldn't help but stand in front of the mirror. I was holding my shirt up off my stomach with one hand and with the other hand was on my stomach. 'A baby' I thought with a smile. 'I'm having a baby' I couldn't help but smile at the fact that I was going to have a family. When I turned I thought it was impossible, but it was actually going to happen.
"I still can't believe you're pregnant." My brother said as he stood at my doorway.
"Me either." I said, not taking my eyes off of my reflection. "I didn't think I'd be able to have a kid of my own." I put my shirt down and looked at my brother. "I know you don't like Klaus but..."
"He makes you happy." Dylan said before I could finish and I couldn't help but give him a small smile. "He's given you the one thing that you've always wanted." I couldn't say anything. "Here." Dylan handed me a cup and I took a sip from it.
"Oh, my god." I said after I tasted it. "A chocolate milkshake. This is so good." I said and he smiled.
"Bridget had a lot of them in the beginning when she was pregnant with Anna."
"Maybe she just liked how you make them." I said as I noticed Bridget coming out of Anna's room.
"Or maybe I just wanted the chocolate." She said to him as she stood next to Dylan with Anna in her arms. "It was one of my cravings." She said as she looked to me. "You should be getting some to." I took another sip of the milkshake.
"I'm going to miss your milkshakes." I said because I had also told them about moving with in with Nik.
"We could move with you." Bridget suggested and I shook my head.
"I don't want you in danger while we deal with what's going on there. Besides, I can always come to visit." She gave me a small smile. I was about to say something, but then the doorbell rang. "I'll get it." I said as I walked out of my room with the milkshake in my hand.

I walked to the door and opened it to see him standing outside.
"Chelsea... I didn't know you were back." He said, clearly surprised to see me.
"Damon, what are you doing here?" I asked as he stood on the porch.
"I was going to ask your brother to call you to see if you wanted to help." He said before taking a step inside. 'At least he's not Silas' I found myself thinking.
"Help with what?" I asked before taking another sip of the milkshake.
"We're trying to torture Elena until her humanity comes back."
"And you want me to help torture Elena?" I asked actually liking the idea even though I wasn't going to say anything. "Let me just finish this and I'll help." I said before finishing up the milkshake.

I walked with Damon into the room where they had Elena. She was tied to a chair with her hair a mess. I knew that they were torturing her to try and get her humanity back. They thought that I might be able to lend a hand and to be truthful, I wanted a shot at her. I knew that I might lose control, but I was hoping that I wouldn't. Even from a distance, I could smell what they did to her as we stood at the doorway.
"Are you sure you want me to do this?" I asked in a whisper to Damon, who was standing next to me.
"We'd rather have you do this than Katherine." He said and it made me think that I was just a second choice to them now. "Besides, I trust you." I couldn't help but take a deep breath. He still trusted me even though there was secrets I was keeping from him. Not only about moving to New Orleans after graduation, but about the expression... and the pregnancy. I noticed that my hand moved to my stomach and I just hoped that Damon didn't notice.
"Stay right here incase I start to lose control." I said before I started to walk towards Elena. I knew that he would think about what I said, but I didn't want to hear it.

As I stepped up to Elena, she slowly moved her head to look up at me. Her hair was a mess and I could tell where her skin had to heal from what Damon said they did to her.
"Oh, it's you." She said and I ignored her as I carefully bent down so our faces were equal. "Do they really think you'll help?"
"Let's just cut to the chase Elena." I said, not really wanting to deal with her longer than I had to. "They won't stop until you get your humanity on. Now, I know how it is to be emotionless." I stood up and looked at her. "You feel more powerful because nothing affects you. The emotions don't cloud your judgement and you can see clearly. There's the emptiness and you think that things don't matter." I stopped for a minute because I couldn't help but think about how I hurt Damon in the past when I had my emotions off. "Here's the thing Elena," I bent down so our faces were equal again ", things do matter. You might not think that now, but when your emotions come back and trust me they will... you'll realize that shutting it off is a cheat. You might think that you have nothing to come back to, but you're going to realize that you're wrong."
"Why do you care?" She asked and I took a deep breath as I stood up straight.
"Because despite what has happened over the last few months, I still care for Damon."
"But you don't love him." Elena said and I squinted my eyes as I tried to control myself.
"I do still love him." I said, knowing that he was listening. "Maybe not in the exact same way that I used to, but I do love him. I'm doing this for him. I know it hurts him to see you like this and because of that, I'm doing this." I took a deep breath and reluctantly focused on her head. In seconds, Elena started to scream from the aneurysm I was giving her. After a few minutes I stopped and she looked at me.
"Is that the best you can do?"
"Not even close." She let out a little chuckle.
"I thought expression was supposed to be more extreme, like what you did at prom."
"Who said anything about expression?" I asked, pretending like I didn't know.
"I figured out that you were using it after I recognized the same power with Bonnie. You don't deny it." She said when I didn't say anything and I could slightly feel my control slipping. "Unless you're holding back for a reason." I couldn't help but hope that she didn't figure out about the pregnancy already. I focused on her head again, but I gave it more power. Her scream was louder than the first time so after a few moments I stopped it.
"I get that your brother died and if I'm being honest... if it was my brother, I might have done the same thing." I said, hoping that I wouldn't have to risk losing control if I used my magic again. "But that would be before I noticed that there are people around that care for me. There are people that care for you. I'm not just talking about Damon and Stefan. There's also Matt, Caroline, and even though you almost killed her... Bonnie still cares. And those are just the people that are alive. There's also Jenna, Alaric, John, and even Jeremy." I noticed that she moved her head at the mention of Jeremy. "Do you really think that they would want to see you this way? Jeremy and Alaric are looking at you from the other side, helplessly watching and wanting to help you. They can't so it's up to the people that are let here, like Damon and Stefan. They both love you and they won't give up until your humanity is back."
"They're going to be waiting a long time." She said and I noticed that she looked back at Damon. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. 'I hope it doesn't consume me' I thought about the expression before I opened my eyes and focused on Elena. She instantly screamed in reaction to what I was doing to her. I was giving her aneurysms while trying not to lose control, but I knew it wasn't going to work. The aneurysms stopped after a few seconds, but then it changed to her muscles constricting. 'Similar to prom.' I thought before noticing that I was losing control. She started to gasp for air, the lights on the wall started to flicker and I knew that if I kept going that they would explode. I kept waiting for Damon to stop me, but he didn't. After a few seconds the paintings on the wall flew off and I felt Damon's hands on my shoulders.
"Chelsea stop." He said, but I couldn't really hear him. "You're going to kill her."
"I thought the point was to have me bring her close to death." I said without my magic stopping.
"This isn't you Chels." Damon said before I closed my eyes. I took a deep breath and slowly brought my hand up to my head. It felt like something changed in me with my magic. It felt like I was gaining more control over it. When I slowly opened my eyes Elena was back to normal... at least she wasn't close to death.
"Nobody really knows me." I said in a whisper before walking away.

I walked to the basement and went straight for a blood bag. I lost control of my magic and Damon found out about the expression, if he knew that Elena was telling the truth. My free hand went to my stomach and I couldn't help but listen to my baby's heartbeat. I let out a sigh, knowing that it was okay.
"At least you're okay." I whispered, knowing there was no harm done after I lost control. I kept my free hand on my stomach as I drank from the blood bag.
"Are you okay?" Damon asked and I noticed that he was standing at the doorway. I quickly took my hand from my stomach and stood straighter.
"Better because of this." I held of the bag before drinking more from it.
"Are you really using expression?" He asked, which shocked me. I could lie to him, but he's seen how I've been losing control. I just nodded my head, not knowing what to say. He showed some concern, but I could tell that he was upset. "Why?"
"I was going to help Bonnie." I honestly said, telling him what I told Nik. "I wanted my mom back," I looked away from before I continued ", and I was going to help get Jeremy back along with Kol."
"You wanted to bring back Kol?" He asked me in disbelief. "After what he did?"
"If we would have listened to Kol, then Jeremy would still be alive." I basically shot at Damon. "He was the only one that didn't want to go after the cure because he knew it would raise Silas. Kol said that Silas would release hell on earth." I couldn't help but picture the day he made Nik think he was dying. "Silas himself is hell on earth," I said after a few minutes of silence ", but I'm not going to help to drop the veil, not anymore. I've had time to think about it and it's just not worth it." I finished the blood bag and put it in the garbage can that was near the freezer. "Not after what's happened." I turned towards the freezer and reached in for another blood bag. 'I might have to only drink live after I move." I couldn't help but think before closing the freezer. I held the blood bag in my hand and stared at. Damon didn't move, which sort of made me nervous.
"Why did you come back?" Damon asked me and I couldn't help but let out a sigh.
"Graduation." I honestly said, not sure if I wanted to mention the pregnancy. "And I also had to tell my brother about something that happened. I'm moving in with Klaus after graduation." I carefully said to Damon. He was silent, like he was taking in the information.
"Please tell me you're joking." He said and I let out a sigh. When I didn't say anything, he knew I wasn't joking. "You're moving in with him? What about us?"
"What about us?" I asked when I turned to him. "We haven't been together since you found out about the compulsion that he put on me the night Elena turned. You knew my true feelings for you, but you didn't try as hard as you could to get me back... if you really did want me." Damon looked hurt, but I couldn't stop. "I know that no matter what you say to me, you do love Elena." I took a deep breath because I thought that I might lose control and I didn't want that to happen for a second time in the same day. "What I said earlier to Elena is true. I do still love you and I don't think I'll stop, but it's not like it was before. I love Klaus and after what he's given me," I thought of the baby ", I can't just leave him."
"We can't end like this Chels." He quietly said as he stepped up to me.
"I know, but he'd be royally pissed off if I left after finding out I was pregnant." 'Did I just let that out?'I couldn't believe that I told him.
"What do you mean your pregnant? Vampires can't..."
"But hybrids can." I said before he could finish. "According to the witches in New Orleans when you're born supernatural and become a vampire, you can still have kids." My free hand went to my stomach and I could tell that Damon looked at it. I wasn't sure if he was listening for the heartbeat, but I could hear it. He looked at me with surprise and disbelief on his face before I walked around him with the blood bag in my other hand.

I walked up the stairs and into the living room, where I saw Rebecca.
"I thought you were in New Orleans with my brothers." She said with surprise and I noticed that Matt was on the couch.
"I was but I wanted to come back for graduation." I said before taking a few steps closer to her. "Plus I had to talk to my brother. He needed to know about you know what." I put my free hand on my stomach and Rebecca knew what I meant.
"I never got a chance to thank you." Rebecca said, which made me slightly surprised and confused. "For what you said at Prom." I gave her a small smile.
"You're welcome Becca and I'd be happy if you could join us in New Orleans after graduation. I don't want to be the only girl in the whatever house Nik picks out." Rebecca gave me a small smile.
"I'll think about it." She said before I walked out of the house.

When I stepped out of the boarding house, I took a deep breath. Damon knew everything that I was keeping from him, but I wasn't sure if I wanted to know what he thought about all of it. As I started to drink from the blood bag, Damon was the one to drive me to the boarding house which meant I either had to ask for a ride back to my brother's or walk there by myself. My car was in the driveway, but the keys were upstairs and I wasn't sure that I wanted to go in just to get them. When I finished the blood bag, I decided to walk by myself... even though I knew it probably wasn't the best idea.

As I walked to my brother's house, I couldn't help but feel a gentle breeze every now and again. It was nice to feel on my skin. After a few moments, I started to get the feeling like someone was watching me. I stopped and turned around but didn't see anyone, but when I turned in my original direction, I saw a hooded figure.
"Silas." I said, which was the only thing that would leave my mouth.
"It seems I can't fool you anymore." He said, which meant my guess was right. "Where's your friend Bonnie?"
"I don't know." I honestly told him. "If I did know, who would be sure I would tell you?"
"You two are the ones that can do the spell." Silas said, obviously avoiding the question. "If I can't get her to do the spell, I'll make you."
"And what makes you think I'd help you after what you did?"
"I may not be able to get in your head anymore, but I can get into your friends heads. Maybe even your brother's." My eyes went wide and I automatically sped to my brother's house.

I stepped into the house and was met with Dylan's eyes.
"What's wrong?" He asked and I just let out a sigh of relief.
"Nothing." I said with a small smile. "Nothing's wrong." I walked into the kitchen as calmly as I could. "I'm glad you're okay."
"I'd be even more okay if you taste this." He held a spoon out of a pot. "It's sauce." I tasted it and coughed a little.
"Just take it a little easy on the vervain." I said with a small smile before getting a bottle of water from the refrigerator. "Otherwise it's perfect."
"Okay, then tell Bridget that the food will be ready soon." I just gave my brother a nod before walking up the stairs.

I found Bridget in Anna's room with Anna in her arms.
"Dylan says the food will be ready soon." I said, which made her look up from Anna to me. She gave me a small smile before looking back down at Anna.
"You'll be holding your own kid soon." She said as I stepped into the room.
"In nine months." I said with a small smile as I looked at Anna. "Unless it grows like Bella's in Twilight." Bridget and I both let out a little laugh. "Either way, Anna will have someone to play with growing up."
"Do you want me to warn him about how to handle you in the future?" I knew she was talking about Nik and how I would probably start to act because of the pregnancy.
"I think he could figure it out on his own." I said with a small smile as I tickled Anna's belly.

After spending the rest of the day with my brother and Bridget, I went into my room. I laid on my bed and I couldn't help but wonder about how Nik would be with the baby. I couldn't help but smile at the thought of my own kid as my phone rang.
"Hello." I said when I answered it because I didn't bother at looking who called.
"Hello love." Nik said and I couldn't help but smile.
"I was just thinking about you Nik." I told him and I could almost feel his smirk through the phone. "I already miss you."
"Then come back." He said to me.
"Graduation hasn't happened yet. It's important to me and I needed some time with my brother before I officially move in with you." I was quiet for a minute because I was waiting for him to say something, but when he didn't... I spoke again. "I love you."
"I love you to." I couldn't help but smile.
"I think I'm gonna go to sleep. I'm tired."
"Good night love." He said and I smiled.
"Good night Nik." I said before hanging up. I put my phone on the bedside table and snuggled more on my bed. A part of me wanted Nik to be sleeping next to me, but I was also glad to have my whole bed to myself. As I drifted to sleep, I couldn't help but wonder about the future.

~ I think this is one of my favorite chapters that I have written for this story. I'm not sure if it was because of the torture scene in the chapter or if it was because of the episode... but I enjoyed writing it (:

~ I tried to fit a Chelsea/Silas scene in this chapter because I'm pretty sure some of you have been wanting one and also a Chelsea/Rebecca scene.
~ I'm starting to think of ideas on what Klaus, Dylan, and Damon should get Chelsea as a graduation present in the finale. I would like to hear your ideas... no matter what they are.

~ I'm not sure how many of you have seen the extended promo for the next episode... but Kol is returning! I hope it's permanent because then he can be in the spin-off. They did say that at least one character that died will come back permanently and even though I want it to be Kol... I think it's going to be either Jeremy or Alaric.
~ Since ghosts are coming back for a little while... I'm thinking about bringing Chelsea's mom back for a little bit... depending on what ghosts show up in the next few episodes.

~ I'm also hoping that you read either 'Secret Memories' (which I have a feeling I will be changing the name of it), 'The Salvatore Sister' and/or 'The Other Hybrid'... they will be my three main stories after this ends with TVD season 4. I'm also going to be ending 'Things Change' soon because I've lost the muse to write that story... and then I won't feel as overwhelmed when I start two more stories after TVD season 4 ends. One is the alternate version of this story 'Out of Place' and the other one will be my first non-TVD story.. which I hope you look out for. I also have some other stories that I don't update as often (because they don't get as many reviews) but I hope you are able to check those out and review them as well (:

~ I want to try and have more interaction with my readers so any ideas you have would be nice... if you want to share (:

~ Before I forget... this story has passed the number of reviews that it's season 3 version 'What's Hidden Underneath' got. That makes this my most reviewed story so far. (

R&R 'till the next udpate
