[Bon Temp: Merlotte's Three Years Later]

Bella turned, wiping the bar down, her baby bump still small, but it was starting to be noticeable. She glanced up at the door as Hoyt walked in. "Hey Hoyt, Alice is in the back!" She said, smiling.

Bonnie walked in, a ring glinting on her finger, and her belly swollen large. "Oh, hey Bella, Damon is out on a call right now with Jasper. I'll bring you back to the house after work." She said and Sam emerged and smiled at Bonnie. He walked over to her, leaning in and kissing her softly. "Hey you, how's business?"

"Oh, it was okay today I believe," He kissed her again. The wedding band on his hand, was a symbol of the vows him and Bonnie took two years prior. He never would have imagined getting married and having a child with such an amazing woman like she was.

Sookie came from the kitchen, wiping her hands on a towel. "Okay, all the sides are done. Caroline is finishing slicing the tomatoes for tomorrow for Lafayette."

Sam nodded. "Thanks Sook."

Sookie smiled. "No problem. I'm gonna go relieve the babysitter." She said and then looked at Bella. "I'll pick Karys and Sebastian up too, so don't rush. Be careful driving home!" She called as she walked out the door.

Something about faeries was that they were magical, and Jasper and she were able to have a son, who was two now, and he was the cutest baby. With Tyr's help, they have been able to stay under the radar for the most part. Bella and Damon had Karys and Sebastian, and then this was the third. She was on the rope about whether she wanted to have more children, or just let this be it. She figured she would wait until this bundle of joy was born and then she would decide later.

Bella finished cleaning the bar down. Her back was aching, and she needed to get off her feet soon.

"Bella, go on home, I'll finish up here," Sam said, walking over to the bar.

"It's fine," she said with a smile.

Alice and Hoyt emerged from the back. "All good to go." Alice said in her sing song voice.

"Thanks Alice." Sam said with a smile. Alice and Caroline were permanent fixtures here. Arlene had to go live with her parents in Shreveport because of the whole Rene issue, so he lost her as a waitress.

Jasper and Damon walked through the doors then.

"I thought you both were on a call?" Bella said.

"We were. I decided to send Andy instead." Damon said. He had taken over for Bud when Bud retired last year. Andy passed it up, surprising Damon, but when Bud offered, Damon thought, why not? Jasper was deputized, and so was Emmett. It was nice to have some muscle that was able to be some real backup when things went sideways on anything. The only place that heated up was Hotshot from time to time.

Emmett wasn't far behind the duo. "Care in the back?"

"Yeah, finishing tomatoes," Sam said.

Emmett smiled and went to the kitchen. Him and Caroline had been dating for two years. Jason took off to Texas on some sort of self-discovery mission. Whatever that was supposed to mean. It had broke Caroline's heart that he did leave, but she decided that it was for the best, because he was not fond of vampires really.

With Eric's ascension to the throne in New Orleans, Bill Compton became the new area Sheriff, and he went between Shreveport and Bon Temp frequently, but Eric traveled back from time to time, to spend time with Bella, to get to know his family.

"Okay, everything is stocked, and ready for tomorrow. " Bella said and smiled at Damon. "Sookie is picking up the kids, so we should meet her at the house."

Damon nodded. "Will do." He looked to Jasper. "You're on the on-call rotation tonight. You good?"

"Perfect. See you Sheriff." Jasper said with wink, and Bella and Damon left, heading back home.

[Salvatore House]

Bella and Damon pulled up at the house right when Sookie got there. Damon went and helped her get the kids out of the car.

"Thank you for picking up the kids. How's Jensen been?" Damon asked Sookie.

"He's been perfect. He sleeps through the night all the way now." Sookie said with a laugh. She looked at her sleeping son in the backseat. "He's perfect."

Damon smiled, a very sleeping Karys holding on to him, her head resting on his shoulder, and then Sebastian was wide awake, holding his hand. "Thank you, again. Go home and get some rest. Jasper shouldn't be too far behind us." He said and carried the kids in the house. He put Karys in bed, and helped Sebastian get in bed too.

"Daddy," Sebastian said, his tiny hand grabbing Damon's.

"Yes son?"

"I wuv you." His blue eyes were bright, looking up at Damon. His dark hair was slightly curled, like Bella's and he was just so perfect looking, like his sister.

"I love you too," Damon said and kissed his forehead and then left the room, making sure to turn on the starry night light on.

He trotted down the stairs to the parlor, where Bella was sitting, relaxing. He leaned in and kissed her. "Mmm. I love you wife."

"I love you husband." Bella smiled as she kissed him back. They tied the knot late last year. Elena and Stefan were traveling in Europe on their honeymoon since they decided to take that leap. Elena was thinking about becoming a vampire, and that was something that she had played around with for the past few years. She didn't want to leave Stefan, she wanted to be there forever, and to be there forever with Bella, and her family. It didn't make sense to her to stay human, but at the same time. Forever was a long time.

A knock sounded at the door and Damon walked to answer it. He opened it, looking at Klaus. "Ah, you're here. Bella is in the parlor." He said and Klaus walked in.

Bella looked up at Klaus and smiled. "I didn't think you were coming until next week." She said and stood, hugging him.

"I was traveling through. I'm actually on my way to see Mr. Compton. How are the kids?" Klaus said, hugging Bella back.

"Doing great," Damon said. "They're sleeping now, but you can go up and check on them."

Klaus smiled. "Thank you," he said and walked up the stairs to peak in on his great-grandchildren. They were fast asleep. That void that he once felt was no longer there. Having family, and without the threat of Michael, he was able to move about freely without fear that Michael would come and yank it all away.

He walked back down the stairs. "They're truly perfect, you two. When will the third be arriving?"

"Going off previous growth patterns, we're thinking in three more months, give or take," Damon said, he poured himself some bourbon and offered Klaus some. Klaus took the drink.

"Boy or girl?" Klaus asked, taking a drink.

"We don't know. It's a surprise," Damon said, smiling at Bella. "She wanted it to be a surprise. I told her she would regret it later."

"Well, I might regret it later, but at the thrill of being surprised is there." Bella said and rubbed a hand over her belly. Her life was actually pretty perfect, she had to admit. It was a little rocky at first, but now that she was settled there in Bon Temp, with Damon, her kids, and family, life wasn't looking so bad.

She was also learning more about her powers. She was able to do some small things. She didn't have the luxury of growing up like Tyr had, so she was still learning. She made time for it whenever she could, but she liked being semi-normal for now.

"Well, let me know if you need anything. I will check in at Christmas," Klaus said and then he was gone.

Damon went and sat next to Bella, setting his drink on the table next to him. He pulled her feet into his lap and started massaging her feet. "Everything turning out like you thought it would?" he asked, after a few moments of silence.

"Well. No. I did not think my life would turn out this way. How long do you think we'll be able to stay here until we have to move again?" Bella asked, thinking about how the Cullen's had to move around a lot.

"Well…we could, or we could just come out…let the town know what we are?"

Bella frowned. "I don't know. Seems too risky. I don't want the kids to grow up being hated."

Damon sighed. "That is true. Well, I imagine when the kids graduate high school, we'll have maybe a couple years before people question why we're not aging."

"Then it's a whole new town." Bella said.

Damon nodded. "Yeah, but it won't be so bad. We'll have each other." He leaned in, kissing her temple.

Bella smiled. "Yeah, there's that." She said and then she yawned.

"Come on, let's get you in bed." He said, and stood, helping her up from the couch. They walked upstairs to their bedroom and got ready for bed. His hands moved over her bare skin as she took her shirt off. He ran a hand over her protruding bump. She was seventeen weeks pregnant, but she held her weight good. She would start filling out more at the halfway mark, it was always so sudden it seemed.

Bella turned in his arms, leaning up and kissing him softly. Her mouth moved over his, her tongue flicking across his, and then he was picking her up and carrying her to the bed. He lay her on her back gently, while he pulled her jeans off, and then her panties. He leaned up, pulling his own shirt off, and she helped him by unhooking his belt.

They slid together in the sheets, naked. His mouth traveled over her body and she hummed with pleasure. His mouth layering kisses as he wound down to her clit, lapping her up, and gathering a moan out of her. He drove her towards her orgasm, and right at the peak, he entered her gently, his erection was hard, like steel, ready to bust open for a release as they danced together in the sheets, the burning passion rolling off them, until she felt her orgasm rip through her, and then he was following shortly after.

After a few short moments, Damon pulled her into his arms, and she lay her head on his chest. She closed her eyes, radiating happiness as she lay in his arms. He kissed the top of her head as he felt her body relax fully against his, and sleep overtook her. He smiled, rubbing a hand over her belly.

"I love you," he murmured into her hair, and then he shut his own eyes, letting his own sleep take him. He was content with his life, and he couldn't wait for what else life had to offer him.
