You have no idea how hard it was to watch empire and write this. Here is an update please enjoy. Don't forget to review.


The trio made their way into the kitchen where Ms. Shelia awaited. Once they entered, her eyes cut up at Damon, and he was honestly terrified. "Sit, the three of you," she said her voice booming with bass.

"I'm sure you think that I have something to do with Stefan being here, but I assure you I have no clue how that happened," Damon interjected before Shelia said a word.

"Oh trust me that's the least of my issues with you Mr. Salvatore," she yelled.

"Did you tell her?" Damon said looking at Bonnie.

"No! I only told Katherine," Bonnie said.

"Why would you tell her?" he yelled.

"Oh and you didn't tell anyone," she said and his face dropped.

"Who did you tell?"

"It's not important," he said turning his attention to Ms. Shelia, "As you were saying."

"Who did you tell," Bonnie demanded.

"I told Lexi, and maybe Qetsiyah," he shrugged.

"And what is it you two are talking about?" Stefan asked.

"It's nothing," they both shot at him.

"It doesn't seem that way, Bonnie?" Shelia asked.

"I-uhmm," she said shifting in her seat.

Stefan grinned as he looked between Bonnie and his brother. "We said some things to each other in the hospital, and it led to other things, and it got better," Damon smiled at Ms. Shelia.

"Really? Bonnie?" she asked unsatisfied with his answer.

"I told Damon I loved him, and he kissed me," she mumbled.

"I didn't catch that, what did you say?" she asked again.

"Grams," Bonnie groaned as she rubbed her temples. "Do you want an essay?"

"Excuse you young lady," she yelled.

"I'm sorry I just had a long night," she said.

"It smells like it," Grams smiled. "You know better."

"I don't know what we're going to do with her," Damon tsked.

"I know what we're going to do with you," she said pointing at him. "Do you know what you did?" she questioned.

"No…"

"You turning into a vampire is effecting Sarah she's showing signs of vampirism," she said and Bonnie immediately stood and ran to Sarah's room. She was afraid something like this would happen. She knew Damon dying would only hurt their daughter. Sarah was asleep in her bed. She looked just as beautiful as Bonnie remembered her. Raven curls framed her face and her caramel cheeks were just as plump and rosy as her pouty lips.

"Bon," Damon said coming in. "I"-

-"No, I told you not to do this, I told you something bad was going to happen," she yelled.

"I know," he said reaching for her. "It's going to be okay."

"Child, there's no way of fixing this. Sarah's vampire side is surfacing and there's no stopping that," Ms. Shelia said from the door.

"What if there's a way to suppress it?" Stefan asked. "Qetsiyah said that's why it took so long to heal my, because my vampirism was being suppressed."

"That could work," Ms. Shelia said. "Get Qetsiyah's grimoire and be at my place in two hours," she said as she left the room.

"Bonnie I don't think we should do that," Damon said.

"You're right…you don't think," Bonnie yelled as Stefan snickered beside her.

"Look I get it I made a mistake that actually turned out the way I planned, sue me. But I'm a vampire, you're a witch, qualities we passed onto OUR daughter. It's not fair for you to choose who she gets to be."

"Do you really think a two year old with super strength, heightened emotions, a craving for blood, and a tendency to bite is a good thing? Do you think this is something she'd want when she's five, and in school and all she can think about is eating one of her classmates, or if she gets mad at someone and pulls a daddy and rips their heart out of their chest? Why wouldn't she want that?"

"Yeah and setting them on fire is any better," Damon smiled a humorless smile.

"Why don't you guys, just suppress them both just enough for her to learn to control them?" Stefan asked.

"Shut up Stefan," they both shut over their shoulders at him.


Officially a week had gone by since Stefan's passing. It was officially the start of spring and Caroline was in the mood for something new. A rebirth of sorts and she knew just the witch to help her. "If it isn't my favorite Parker," Caroline smiled. "I need magic, and you have it."

"Look I'm through helping you people. I'm here to learn and that's what I'm going to do," Liv yelled as she walked passed Caroline.

Caroline speed over to Liv and grabbed her by the neck. "I guess I forgot to say please. Please," she added as she vamped out.


Bonnie stood in Ms. Shelia's kitchen fixing dinner. She was snapping the green bean and mumbling under her breath. Ms. Shelia couldn't help but laugh at her granddaughter as she watched her. "I'm glad you found a creative release for your anger baby, but could you not ruin my dinner," she asked.

"I'm sorry Grams, I just don't understand him. Why is he so insistent on being a vampire and Sarah being a vampire? What good can any of this do? I'm not going back down that road," she protested.

"Sweetheart, soon all those memorize are going to wash away, and then what do you think will happen with you two?"

"We'll probably kill each other," Bonnie muttered.

"Do you honestly think that?" Ms. Shelia inquired.

"If you're asking because of the kiss, trust me everything I felt before is gone, because Damon Salvatore is a hopeless idiot," she yelled.

"And still you feel…"

"Grams," Bonnie warned.

"Look, I hardly see Damon as a suitable suitor for you, but if it's what you feel why fight it?"

"Jeremy, Elena, every evil thing he's ever done, the way he hurt me, used me. He's the reason I lost you. And now this," she said with tears in her eyes. "I probably would have been better off if he did die."

"Now child, don't you go saying things you don't mean. I heard you when you thought he was dead. You know you don't want that," she tsked.

"I just wished he could see it. That he can be a good person. That he deserves to have happiness and good things, and he doesn't have to force his happiness."

"If you lived over a hundred years having to keep only your best interest at heart, because no one else would, do you think you'd be much different?"

Bonnie quirked her brow at her grandmother. "I never thought I'd see the day you defend Damon," Bonnie laughed.

"I'm defending your happiness from you," she smiled. "He's not the only one that can ruin a good thing."
