Hey guys :)

so it is like eleven o'clock at night and I am very emotional from the Switched at Birth season 3 finale, the Fosters mid-season finale, and finding out who the Benefactor is on Teen Wolf. So, if any of you watch either of these shows you're probably a mess right now too. So I decided to update! I hope you like it...

Caroline Forbes was fuming. She dropped Klaus off at home before she went to her classes. Klaus had kept asking her if she was alright, and she was. To be honest, the encounter was extremely awkward. But she wasn't angry. She wasn't upset. She was just confused. She was completely and utterly fine. But once she started heading to her class, she thought just how much she wished she could run over Tyler with her car. She mentally scolded herself for such thoughts. And then she remember what a complete asshole Tyler was during their last few months together. No, she didn't want to see him, or cry, or even yell at him. She just wanted to ignore him. Forget he existed, but it didn't help that she still wanted to gauge his eyes out with fruit cutters. Stefan and Lexi were waiting for her outside the classroom and were honestly a little scared of her.

"Caroline? Are you okay?" Stefan asked the blonde.

"Okay? Do I look okay?" she snapped.

"Wow, what's gotten into you?" Lexi asked.

Caroline sighed and apologized, "I'm sorry. I'm just really upset and angry."

"Why?" Stefan rubbed her back.

"Tyler Lockwood is back to Mystics Falls."

Stefan's eyes widened, and Lexi just stood there confused.

"Tyler Lockwood? Your ex-fiancé?" Stefan clarified. Caroline nodded. "What the hell is he doing back?"

"That's what I'd liked to know." Caroline blew her hair out of her face annoyed.

"What did Klaus say? Does he know?" Lexi asked.

"He was there with me when I saw him. I just shrugged it off as if it meant nothing, but once I dropped him off I became very angry. I don't even know why. I never hated Tyler, but right now I do."

"It's understandable," Stefan started. "I mean, he emotionally abused you and then after the breakup moved out-of-town as if he was the victim and never tried to communicate. I'd hate him, too."

"Me three," Lexi spoke up. "He sounds like a jackass."

"He wasn't always," Caroline murmured. "But I have Klaus now, and I'm happier than I ever was with Tyler. I've moved on," Caroline turned her frown upside down.

"That's the spirit!" Lexi elbowed the other blonde. Caroline smiled at her two friends and realized how her drastically her life changed in five years, but it was still the best change that happened during her twenty-five years on earth.

...

Over the next few days Caroline didn't run into Tyler, which made her extremely happy. But someone else did.

Klaus was at The Grill having a drink while racking his brain for inspiration to finish his painting. For someone who paints anything and everything he sees, hears or feels, it was tearing him apart that he couldn't finish a simple art piece. He had felt this emotion so many times within the past couple of years; happiness. Whenever he thought of happiness he thought of his father's death, his siblings' smiles, and the beautiful Caroline Forbes. He started with yellow because that's the color of brightness. But that's all he's got, and its making him feel like a failure.

"Someone's being all mopey," chuckled Bonnie Bennett as she leaned across the bar to refill his glass.

Klaus looked up at her and gave her a small smile. "Just stuck on a piece," he answered.

"You'll get it," Bonnie smiled. "You're amazing, have you seen your work?" He smiled in gratitude.

"Bonnie Bennett! Guess who's back!" a voice exclaimed from behind Klaus. Bonnie knew that voice since she was five. She didn't even need to look behind Klaus to know that Tyler Lockwood was standing there.

"Tyler!" Bonnie moved out from behind the counter to hug her childhood friend. But after the hug broke, she slapped his arm with all her strength.

"Hey! What was that for?" Tyler cried.

"For skipping town and not talking to anyone for five years!" She didn't mention breaking Caroline's heart, but she knew that would create disaster especially if Klaus is sitting right there.

"I'm sorry, okay? I talked to Jeremy and Matt. Speaking of my best friend.. Where's Donovan?"

"I'm right here," Matt said as he came out of the storage room with a grin on his face. "Hey, man!"

As Tyler and Matt hugged and caught up, Bonnie sat down beside Klaus.
"I'd get out of here now if I were you."

"Why would I do that?" Klaus asked.

"So things won't be awkward."

"Please."

"You two hate each other, don't deny that."

"I've only ever met him a couple of times, but yes he is a twat."

"And this twat thinks you're a dick," Tyler turned around to glare at the British man.

Matt and Bonnie shared a look that said this wasn't going to be good.

"Hey Tyler, have you seen Caroline yet?" Klaus asked, an evil grin spreading across his face.

Tyler rolled his eyes, "You were there when I saw her. What exactly was that anyway? Since when have you've been dating Caroline?"

"Not any of your business."

"Ty, let it go," Matt grabbed his arm. "It's not worth it."

"Matt's right. Because I would definitely kick your ass," Klaus smirked.

"You want to take this outside?" Tyler threatened.

"No, he doesn't," Bonnie warned. "Both of you stop or go home."

"I have to go anyway." Klaus stood up and put his coat on and gave Bonnie twenty dollars for his expenses. "Bonnie, Matt, I'll see you sometime when my youngest siblings bring you around."

"Bye," Bonnie and Matt waved. Tyler just stood there staring daggers as Klaus walked out the door.

...

Once Bonnie was done with her shift, she started to head home. She mentally slapped herself when she realized that her daughter was spending the day with Kol. She turned around to drive to her boyfriend's condo on the other side of town. When she reached the place, she got out of the car and walked to the back door. She had a key that Kol had given her a few months ago, so she pulled it out and let herself in.

"Mommy!" Emma exclaimed, once hearing the back door open. She ran from the living through the kitchen and attacked her mother. Bonnie picked her up and hugged her. "Guess what me and Kol-ey did today!"

"What did you do today?" Bonnie asked as Kol came into the kitchen.

"He took me to the arcade! My favorite game is the ski ball machine! And guess what I won?"

"Hmm.. A car?" Emma shook her head. "A new house?"

"No, silly." Emma booped Bonnie's nose. "I won a big teddy bear! Well, Kol won that for me. But with the tickets I won, I got a magic eight ball, a tiara, and a bunch of candy!"

"Please tell me you didn't eat all the candy," Bonnie begged.

"Don't worry," Kol spoke up. "I only let her have a lollipop and a twix bar."

"Oh, since when are you responsible?" Bonnie joked.

"Since me!" Emma giggled and hid her head in her mother's shoulder. Bonnie kissed her daughter's hair, and Kol smiled at the sight. They weren't his family, but he loved them just as if they were. Emma took after Bonnie with her light brown skin, chocolate eyes, and dark hair. Her personality was a mix of both her parents: the brilliance and kind-heartedness of her mother, and the fierceness and open-mindedness of her father. Although her smile was all her own, Kol thought it was just as beautiful as Bonnie's was.

"Thank you for watching her today," Bonnie turned her attention back to her boyfriend. "You didn't have to, but I appreciate it."

"No problem," Kol grinned. "I love the little monster," he affectionately messed up Emma's hair, which made her pout and fix it.

"Kol-ey! Don't touch my hair!" Emma pouted.

"Sorry Em."

"We should probably get going," Bonnie said.

"No!" Emma cried.

"Yes, we need to get home."

"Actually, can I talk to you for a second?" Kol asked Bonnie. Bonnie nodded and let Emma go into the living room to get her stuff together.

"What is it?"

"Three things. One: I need my hello kiss." Bonnie rolled her eyes but nonetheless walked toward Kol and place her hands on his cheeks before pulling his lips to hers' in a lingering kiss. "Thank you," he smirked. She left her hands around his neck while absent mindedly playing with his hair as he continued to talk. "Second thing is I thought I'd be polite and ask you about your day."

"Eh, it was okay. Your brother-"

"Which one?"

"Klaus, came in and was drinking away his artistic failures but then Tyler Lockwood came in to say hi to me and Matt, but they kind of got into an argument. Other than that, work was just fine."

"And what about your classes this morning?"

"It was school, what do you think?"

"It sucked."

"Actually I kind of like school, but yeah it does. Anyway, what was the third thing you wanted to talk about?"

Kol chuckled as if he was embarrassed about what he was about to say. "I... Uhm, I wanted to know if you and Emma would like to move in?"

Now this caught Bonnie off-guard. "Excuse me?"

"I mean, your apartment is super small and it's all the way across town and I just hate how far away you guys are. And I know that small-ass apartment gets on your nerves."

"It's not like Emma is there all the time though. She spends the night at Jeremy's half of the time. And I sleep here sometimes when I don't have her."

"I know, but I want to make it official."

Bonnie gave him a look that said she couldn't believe what he was asking, "You're serious?"

"Damn right. I love you, and Emma, and I want you guys to move in. There's a guest room for all the times you have Emma, and my room is big enough for both of us."

Bonnie sighed and looked at the floor. "I'll think about it, okay? We've only been dating for eleven months, and I don't want to move too fast."

"Bonnie, darling. Trust me. I've never felt anything like how I feel about you in my entire life."

She gave a small smile and kissed his cheek. "I got to go." He nodded and broke their embrace. "Emma!" Bonnie called. Emma ran in with her backpack full with toys on her back.

"Bye Kol-ey!" She hugged his legs. He chuckled and bent down to kiss her hair.

"Have fun at your sibling dinner tomorrow," Bonnie said as she kissed Kol once again. She grabbed Emma's hand and started walking towards the door. "I love you, and I promise I'll think about it."

Kol smiled and waved, "Bye." He watched the mother and daughter duo walk out of his condo as he continued to hope they move in with him.

...

The next morning, Katherine rolled over in her bed expecting to snuggle into her husband's side. When all she felt was air, she opened her eyes. She sighed once she looked around the room and saw that he was not there.

"Not again, Elijah." She shook her head and sat up, swinging her legs over the edge. She gathered her hair into a ponytail before standing up. As she started walking to the bathroom, Elijah came in through their bedroom door.

"Morning sweetheart," he said.

Katherine turned around and glared at him playfully. "Exactly where have you been this morning, mister?"

"Getting ready for lunch today," he replied.

"But why? It's only," she looked at the clock and her eyes widened. "It's eleven o'clock?" Elijah nodded. "We're meeting everyone at noon, and the café is twenty minutes away." He nodded once again. "Crap. I got to get ready, give me twenty-five minutes!" Elijah laughed as Katherine threw herself in the bathroom.

True to her word, Katherine was ready in exactly twenty-five minutes. She walked down the stairs to meet Elijah in the kitchen.

"How do I look?" she asked as she twirled around. She was wearing black skinny jeans, a thin white belt to hold them up, a purple cami, a black leather jacket, and black heels to finish off the outfit. Her hair was naturally curled, as it is everyday. Makeup included simple black mascara and red lipgloss. Jewelry was a minimum except for a dolphin necklace her parents gave her when she was fourteen, her charm bracelet that she's been collecting charms for five years now (including her engagement ring she had made into a charm,) and her wedding ring that glowed on her left hand like a throne.

"Beautiful," Elijah smiled in his typical dress suit.

"You look dapper yourself, although you always do."

Within twenty minutes, Katherine and Elijah were sat at a table for eight, with a booth behind them that Emma, Christian, and Tate could sit, eat, and play at. The table for eight had four sides to fit two people. Katherine and Elijah sat on one side together, of course.

"Auntie Kitty-Kat!" the high-pitched voice that could only belong to Christian Salvatore exclaimed. "And Uncle 'Lijah!"

"Hey, kiddo!" Katherine smiled at her nephew as he ran to her. She picked him up and placed him on her lap. "We have to tell your daddy to stop having you call me that." When Christian shook his head she changed the subject, "Where's your mommy?"

"I ran away from her," Christian giggled.

"I would too," Katherine joked.

"Very funny," Elena said as she walked towards the table. She leant down towards her son, who was now hugging Elijah, and said, "We don't run away from mommy, okay?" Christian nodded,
"I sowwy."

Elena kissed her son's forehead and said, "It's alright. Just don't do it again?"

"I won't!"

"You're a good mother, Elena," Elijah spoke up as he moved Chris' long dark hair out of his eyes.

"Thank you," Elena smiled. "And I'm sure whenever you guys decide to have children, you'll be great parents." Elena glanced at her twin. "Or, well. Elijah will be great."

"Hey," Katherine slapped her sister's arm. Katherine then yelped when she felt someone poke her in the sides. She turned around and there stood a blonde who reminded her a lot of her husband. "Rebekah, don't do that," Katherine growled.

Rebekah rolled her eyes at her sister-in-law before walking over to her brother. "Aren't you going to give your baby sister a hug?" She opened her arms. "It's not like you haven't seen me in two months."

Elijah handed Christian back to Elena before standing up to hug his sister. "Well, it's not my fault you don't come around."

"I'm never invited."

"We'll have to change that."

"We might have to," Rebekah smiled.

She turned to Elena and Christian, "How's my little guy?" She asked Christian.

"I good. I miss you and Uncle Matt," Christian pouted.

"Aww, honey. We're trying to plan a wedding, but we'll come around soon, I promise."

"Speaking of wedding," Elena started. "Let me see your ring!"

Rebekah laughed and held up her left hand. Her diamond ring sparkled in the sun.

"Rebekah, it's beautiful!" Elena exclaimed.
"Woah, could Matty Blue-Blue even afford that?" Katherine added.

"Matt's always been very careful with his money. He must have saved it for something important, and well.." Elena looked at Rebekah. "You're that special person." Rebekah grinned.

"I hope one of my brothers show up soon so I'm not the only guy," Elijah muttered.

"Don't be grouchy," Rebekah nudged her older brother. "You're not the grouchy sibling. That's Klaus."

"And I'm the noble one, Kol's the narcissistic one, Finn's the pessimistic one, and you're the sensitive one."

"Someone mention my name?" Kol announced his arrival by appearing behind Rebekah.

"Yes, we were just saying how much you love to look at yourself in the mirror," Elijah grinned while slapping his hand on his youngest brother's back.

"I am very good-looking, right Rebekah?" The girl in question scoffed but still gave her brother a hug anyway.
"Eh, you're okay."

"Uncle Kol! Auntie Bex! Uncle 'Lijah!" A boy with flaming red hair squealed as he ran towards his Aunt and Uncles.

"Tate!" Finn called after his son, but Tate was already hugging Rebekah's legs. "I'm so sorry. He's been talking all morning about how much he missed you guys."

"It's okay," Rebekah smiled down at her nephew. "I've been excited to see him, too. He's gotten so big."

"I'm two now!" the young boy held up two fingers. He looked around, "Where's Uncle Nik?" Tate asked.

"He should be here soon," Elijah look around. He saw that Jeremy and Emma had arrived and were talking to the twins. "Shall we all sit down now?" Elijah suggested, gesturing to the table.

Katherine turned her head, "Yes. Not many people are in this room, but I'm sure we're annoying them anyway," she glared at this elderly couple, who were the only people in the room besides the party of ten, who had been giving them dirty looks since Christian had ran inside.

"Kol-ey! I just saw you yesterday!" Emma exclaimed once she saw that Kol was there. "What are you doing here?"

Kol chuckled and ruffled Emma's hair, again. "I'm having lunch, Em."

"Me too! And don't touch my hair," she slapped his hand away.

"Kids, you can sit at this booth here." The waitress came with crayons and coloring maps to keep them busy.

Klaus entered the café exactly when the rest of them started to sit down at the table. Elijah and Katherine, Elena and Jeremy, Kol and Finn, and Rebekah were all seated. Klaus took the seat in between Rebekah and Elijah.

"Niklaus; always fashionably late," Elijah acknowledged without looking up from his menu.

"It's never a party if you're not the last one to show up," Finn added.

"Nice to see you guys, too." He leaned over to Elijah, "Why are the Gilberts here?"

"Katherine and I both have news," was all he said. Klaus sighed and rolled his eyes.

"Hello, I'm April and I'll be your waitress today." The waitress was indeed April Young, who didn't realize who she was serving until she saw Rebekah's, Elena's, and Jeremy's faces. "Oh my gosh, hey guys!"

"April! How are you?" Elena asked the young girl she used to babysit.

"I'm good. Just finishing up my last year of college."

"Where are you going?" Rebekah asked the girl who was one of her first friends when she moved here, despite being two years younger.

"I'm at MIT, but we got off for vacation a few weeks ago so I came back to help my dad. He retired, you know. Anyways, enough catching up. Can I get you guys anything to drink?"

Fifteen minutes later, once everyone was settled with their lunch and have all done their fair share of catching up, Katherine picked up her wine glass and knife and clicked them together nicely.

"You didn't have to do that," Elijah told his wife. More people who have since been seated in the room looked over at Katherine. She shot them all daggers before they went back to minding their own business.

"Yes, I did. It's fun. Anyway, you're all probably wondering why we invited all of you out to lunch."

"I have a guess," Jeremy muttered.

"Shut it, Little Gilbert." Katherine shared a look with Elijah and he nodded for her to continue. She took a deep breath, "Elijah and I have been married for two years now.. And well, I'm twenty-five and he's twenty-nine and both our careers are taking off, so we decided that it's the perfect time to start a family." The look on everyone's faces was the exact opposite of shock. They all had a feeling this was coming. Katherine ripped the band-aid off, "I'm pregnant."

"I knew it," Jeremy whispered to Elena.

Elena ignored her adoptive brother, and stood up to congratulate her sister. "Oh my god, that's great! I'm so happy for you! How far along are you?"

"10 weeks."

"You're almost done with the first trimester. Have you gone to an ultrasound yet?" Elena asked. She looked up and saw that the Mikaelsons were congratulating their brother also.

"Yes. I found out when I was five weeks by a pregnancy test, and I told Elijah that night. We scheduled an ultrasound for the next week and the doctor confirmed it and everything."

"You've known for a month and you didn't tell me," Elena accused.

"Sorry, but we wanted to wait."

Jeremy spoke up, "Well I'm incredibly happy for you guys. Being a parent is, it's an amazing feeling." Jeremy looked at over at Emma, who was teaching the young boys how to draw a house.

"Thank you," Katherine gave her cousin a side hug. "I'm actually excited! I just don't want to deal with the crying, the up-all-nights, the diapers, the mess... Can't the baby just start out at like.. Age two?"

"No, you do not want the terrible twos."

"Okay, how about three?"

"That sounds good," Elena chuckled. "But you'll be fine."

A few feet away from the Gilberts stood the Mikaelsons who were having their own version of congratulations.

"Have you told mother yet?" Finn asked, after the congratulation hugs.

Elijah nodded, "Her plane lands in two hours actually."

"You mean she's coming here? To Mystic Falls?" Kol asked.

"Yes, she wants to help Katherine with maternity things. It's only for a couple of weeks."

"But now that she has two grandchildren, and Rebekah's getting married, I bet she's going to move back, " Klaus said.

"Why did she move away anyway?" Rebekah asked. After Rebekah graduated and didn't need her mother anymore, Esther decided to move away from Mystic Falls all the way across country to Palm Springs, California. Her children all stayed there (Rebekah, Klaus, and Elijah did. Kol went away to start baseball, but he moved back when he met Bonnie, and he also wanted to be closer to his siblings. Finn and Sage lived in Brooklyn, New York for a while, but moved back because they preferred the quiet town to raise a child in.) She never really visits, just calls a lot. Klaus and Kol never pick up, but that doesn't stop her from trying.

"Guess once we didn't need her anymore, she didn't want to stay here."

"We never needed her in the first place," Kol said. "We got along just fine without her for six years."

"And we've done good for another six," Rebekah added.

"I honestly don't want her here," Finn spoke up.

"That's a shock. You're her favorite son, don't deny it." Kol scoffed.

"She's not the same mother I remember. She's not the mother I love."

"I don't even remember that mother."

"Kol, Finn. Mother is coming to town, whether any of you like it or not. I'm not too happy about it either, but it is what it is." Rebekah and Klaus rolled their eyes at Elijah always being the voice of reason.

"Fine," Kol said. "But if she ever wants a family dinner, count me out."


Wow, so Katherine is pregnant! How many of you saw that coming? And what do you thinks going to happen now that both Tyler and Esther are back in town? And Kol asked Bonnie to move in with him, will she do it? And I know I said I'd introduce Jenna and Alaric in this chapter, but I couldn't figure out how to fit them in, but they'll be in here soon.

So.. I would love it if I got at least three reviews! Please?

Thanks for reading :)
