"Where are you going with this, old man?" Damon asked suspiciously. The Ghost looked like he was trying to figure out something in his own mind.
"Well, Damon. I don't usually do this, but I am going to show you both sides to the end of your story." Said the man.
"So-like an alternate ending?" Damon said with a confused expression.
"Exactly." The old man said with a toothy smile. "But remember boy, you may like what you see-" Paused the man. Damon smiled.
"And may not." Damon frowned.
"But, you can always change your future by your actions."
"Fine. Let's just go. I want to get his over with." Damon said taking another glance to tired Elena.
Elena sat her diary back down. Looking across the room before she turned off her lamp on her bed side table. Damon and The Ghost were about to leave, until Damon noticed something different about her face. The expression on her face was mixed with if you ate something stale or raw, and searching for something so hard to see like air. Elena noticed something off about her room.
"What is she looking at?" Damon turned his head to ask the Ghost, but he had vanished.
Damon looked back at Elena, and then all around the room to see if something had changed. He even tried sensing if anyone was near.
Then it hit him.
Like a bus running into him. He pieced all the parts of the puzzle together; Damon saw his shadow. Elena was looking at his shadow. Which meant Elena saw his shadow, and she knew someone was here.
Shit.
Elena started to slowly get up off hr bed. "Hello?" Elena's faint voice asked. "Is, umm, anybody here?" She continued. She walked over to Damon's shadow.
"Hello?" She asked again. She looked up and was standing right in front of him, looking right at him. Elena being the high spirited, having Plan B before she has Plan A, always thinking the 'what if's', couldn't help but ask.
"Mom? Dad?"
Damon's legs were about to give out. Did she really think there was an afterlife? Maybe there is. A voice popped up in his head.
Her eyes started to get teary, as she looked up at him, so hard, wanting to see something.
Damon put the back of his hand right next to her cheek, pretending to slightly caress it, without touching it.
A small tear fell from Elena's cheek. Damon could feel himself slipping away, but not from his legs, he was leaving this time period. He was heading to the future.

Damon fell, he fell hard. He fell hard for reality, he fell hard for humanity, and he had fell hard for Elena Gilbert. But now he had fell hard onto the ground. Into the cold Virginia snow.
He slowly got up, of course he was greeted by the Ghost again. "What year is this?" Damon asked looking around. It was slightly different around here, one of them being standing in a complete strangers yard.
"2017." Said the Ghost simply.
Damon almost choked on laughter. "You not serious right?"
"Am I never not?"
"Yes! Actually, like when you told me no one could see me? Elena Gilbert, almost caught me red handed, whatever your name is." Damon shouted.
"A shadow, is not you. All it is a type of figment of light, Damon." The Ghost paused. "Now, may we proceed?"
"So this is my future? The good ending or the bad one?"
"You will be able to decide that for yourself." Said the Ghost leading Damon up to one of the windows of the stranger house.
Damon looked inside. The house was lit, but empty. Damon was about to ask a question, but the Ghost's voice appeared in his head.
Life is patient. So you must be patient to. Wait. Was all the Ghost said. Damon rolled his eyes. Now he could hear many steps, coming down the stairs. And...laughter?
It was Elena. An older Elena. She still had her baby face, but a more adult like body, and with beautiful dark brown hair.
Elena ran down the stairs, laughing, and with...Damon...behind her.
"Is that me? With Elena?" Damon asked the Ghost, who of course didn't respond.
"Damon stop!" Older Elena complained and continued to laugh.
"Make me." Older Damon said with a smirk and with his vampire speed, grabbed Elena in his arms with her body slung over his shoulder.
Damon was liking this 'future' already.

Damon held Elena and then threw her lightly onto the couch. Sending her with more laughter. Damon plopped right next to her.
"Merry Christmas." Elena said with a smile. "Merry Christmas." Damon said back.
Damon, always making the first move, even in the future, moved forward and kissed Elena. Elena kissed him back, which led to more ecstasy and forceful kissing.
Elena tried to kiss Damon harder but he always did it ten times better.
Damon slid his hand up Elena's back making her shiver. In seconds Damon had Elena on top of him, for a change. He fiddled with her shirt trying to untie it in the back. Elena's shirt drifted off onto the floor.
They kissed more, and grinded a bit which made Damon pleased making a slight moan. They flipped over.
Damon pulled of his shirt in the process, and grabbed a handful of her brown hair. "Tell me you want me." He said commanding.
"No." Elena said with a smile. She played hard, now a days.
Damon slid his hand up her skirt towards her ass, which made Elena shiver even more. "Tell me you want me." Damon repeated in between kisses, he started to kiss her neck, which made her throw her head back. "I want you Damon." She said slowly.
Damon could feel the heat in his face, his eyes go red. She had thrown her head back, exposing her neck, which would make any vampire go crazy.
Damon took a deep breath ignoring the fact he hadn't ate in a while. Elena looked up towards him with a smile.
"Do it. I dare you." She said seductively. Damon smirked, extended his fangs, and bit into her neck, which made her smile in pleasure.

-Back outside-
Damon's eyes went wide for the little private show they preformed, but what shocked him most is that older Damon didn't even hesitate to bite Elena. At all.
I mean he wasn't really disagreeing but still...It's Elena. Small, tight, fair, little Elena. But this Elena, wasn't the Elena he knew back home. But he wasn't about to complain.

Damon removed his fangs and Elena started to sit up. "A little hard, but it was okay." Elena said rubbing the blood off her neck. "Wonder when it's going to be my turn." She said as they both greeted each other with a smirk.
The Damon outside of the window was only in mere shock. Those words. 'Wonder when it's my turn.' Does that mean, in the future, Elena is a vampire? Damon thought to himself.
Future Elena and Damon put there clothes back on and started talking and laughing again. Damon was telling some joke or something that made Elena laugh extremely hard. Elena's laugh, has always been a beautiful sight. Damon wondered if Stefan ever saw it that way. Ughh...Not about to let him ruin my mood.
Damon heard more footsteps in the house slowly coming down the stairs. But not heavy steps, little light footsteps that could be mistaken for a mouse. Child footsteps.
"Mommy?" A vaint voice called from the top of the staircase. It was a little girl, and then another child, a boy, came from behind her. The girl had black hair, and brown eyes. And the boy had black hair, and blue eyes. Both of them had Damon and Elena's traits.
So those two children must have been...there children?
XXX
Elena's head shot up.
"Ariana? Nevaeh? I'm sorry, did we wake you two up?" Elena asked and walked over to her kids. Elena picked up her son, Nevaeh, and Ariana ran to Damon.
Damon smiled and picked up Ariana and placed her on his lap.
Both of the kids were staring at the tree. "You guys weren't supposed to see those til' morning." Elena said with a frown.
"Oh, don't worry. Mommy's just being stubborn." Damon said looking towards Elena with a smirk, which made her roll her eyes.
"Please, mommy." Nevaeh asked, pointing towards the tree. "Fine! But you can only open one each!" Elena stated and threw her head back in laughter.

-Back Outside-
Damon...and Elena...were a family. A real family. Damon thought even if he had ever gotten with Elena, force of not, she would only stay for the sex.
But they were a family. In a perfect house. With a perfect life. With two perfect, beautiful children.
"See Damon. Even you are a good dad, like your own. Your father only wanted what was best for you, like you would want for Ariana and Nevaeh." The Ghost said suddenly.
"Wow this is a lot to take in." Damon smiled.
Him and Elena were going to be together, he knew it. He couldn't help but tell his own mind and Elena, 'I told you so'.
"But wait, Ghost. What about Stefan?"
"Come on Damon. Let's take a walk." Said the Ghost placing a soft hand on Damon's back.
They walked in the deeper and deeper into the snow. If felt like really cold, quick sand. They walked more and more into the snow, it was almost up to Damon's knees now! What was going on? They walked more and more. Now it was up to his hips! Almost his elbows!
Damon hesitated but didn't say anything. This felt like a really confusing nightmare. Now it was up to his shoulders, same and the Ghost. Deeper and deeper they walked.
The snow had already covered the bridge of his nose. Now Damon held his breath and they walked right into the wall of snow.

Damon fell, again. Through the snow, he was now in another house. But a house he knew all to well. Damon looked around.
"Why am I in the Boarding House? Are we still in the future? If I live with Elena now, then why is this place even still standing?"
"One question at a time, boy! Now, first of all yes, we are in the future still. Second of all, this place is still standing because it's not totally abandoned. When you left to live your life with Elena, you left someone here also." The Ghost said. "Go into the living room." He finished.
Damon slowly walked into the living room. The house was awfully dusty, and it seemed to be even colder then it was outside. And no lights were on.
When was the last time someone payed a bill here? Damon thought. He now walked into the cold dark living room.
There was Stefan, sitting on the couch, in the dark alone, in a bundle of covers.
"Stefan?" Damon said shockingly. 'Oh yea he can't here me. Duh'
Well god dammit.
His brother looked like he had just gotten hit by three buses. And there was nothing he could do about it.
Authors Note: Hope you like! BTW, theres gonna be more chapters! Sorry i havent updated this story, Im trying to work on What I want is you and Unforgotten Face.
BTW again, Damon and Elena's son's named Nevaeh, is really the word 'heaven' backwards. Its a uncommon name, but I liked it.
