Chapter Fourteen:


Kai and Kol didn't say much, but they didn't have to. They were just there – for me – with me. It was enough and it made a world of difference. They didn't need to actually say anything for me to know that nothing had changed between the three of us. Their body language told me that much. Words cannot express how much I love both of them. They came into my life, when I needed them the most. And I can't picture my life without them. We just… fit.

It's been quiet, since everything that went down with Damon. I knew that part of that is my fault. I just didn't know what to say, that I hadn't already. I don't feel any different about all of this, than I did before. I was still theirs and they were still mine. There's nothing that Damon could do to change that.

"We love you… You know that, right?" Kai asked me, quietly, collecting me from my thoughts. I gave him a small smile and nodded. I do know that. "Good. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise, Babe." He advised. I cracked a real smile and nodded, again.

"And I love you, both." I assured both of them. Kai pressed his lips gingerly against mine, trying to be careful of my injuries from earlier.

"I hope you realize that we aren't going to let him get away with this. That bastard actually put his hands on you! How dare he?!" Kol seethed. Much to my surprised, he was taking the news harder than Kai was.

He's right, Babe. We're going to keep you out of it, but we're going to take of this. This isn't about us fighting your battles for you. It's about the fact that Damon thought it was okay to try and bully you back into that fucked up relationship with him. It's not right and we're going to talk to him about it. The less you know, the better." Kai agreed with our lover.

"I know that and I know that it would be pointless to try and talk you out of this, so I'm not even going to try. What I am going to do is say thank you for trying to protect me and having my back." I confessed.

"You don't have to thank us for that, darling." Kol breathed. I shrugged.

"I want to."


We spent the night just being together. We didn't do anything, really. We just cuddled and enjoyed each other's company. It's unbelievably nice to have that. I love them. They're my heart.


A/N: I know that this chapter isn't as long as the last, but this feels like a good stopping point. Stay tuned! There is so much more to come! Reviews are my bubbles! (Happiness)

Stay excellent.
