Hey guys, sorry its been a while since I've updated but I've had a few personal things going on but I promise I'll be updating all of my fan-fics this week.
Damon and Bonnie was sitting on the bouncy castle whilst Stefan and Caroline were finishing up the final touches before the guests arrived for the twins birthday party.
"I can't believe the twins are four today."
"I know" Bonnie replied to Damon as she snuggled up to him.
"Do you ever regret getting with me?" he suddenly asked a surprised Bonnie.
"No, where did that come from?" she asked her husband.
"I dunno, I suppose when I look at how lucky Stefan and Caroline are to have been blessed with Clay and Clary...I..I wish we could have that, you know, but unfortunately I can never give that to you."
Bonnie turned around so that she was looking straight into Damon's beautiful blue eyes and placed a hand on his cheek and started to rub small circles with her thumb.
"As long as I'm with you, that's all that matters to me Damon, I knew we wouldn't be able to have kids when I got with you."
"But I wish I could, I'd love to be able to have children with you Bon."
"I know, and I would you but I know that's not on the cards for us but it doesn't bother me because I have you."
Meanwhile Stefan had just put the last tray of food in the dining area when Caroline walked over to him after checking on the twins who were in their bedroom playing with Liz.
"What's wrong?" she asked him noticing the concerned look on his face straight away.
"Damon" was all he said.
Caroline went over to the window and saw that Damon and Bonnie looked fine sitting on the bouncy castle talking to one another.
"I don't understand" she said as she turned and faced Stefan with a puzzled look on her face.
"I couldn't help but overhear his conversation with Bonnie"
"Stefan that's really bad listening on other peoples conversations" she interrupted him.
"I know Care, but I feel for him, he wants a child with Bonnie and hates himself because he can't give her that."
Caroline just looked at Stefan, when Damon had first arrived in Mystic Falls never in a million years did anyone believe that he'd be the marrying type and settle down, she guessed it was only natural now that he had found someone who loved him for all of him that he'd like to create another human being with his spouse, she felt kind of guilty that she and Stefan had been blessed with not one but two children considering that they were both vampires and had done some unspeakable things in the past especially Stefan.
Her thoughts was interrupted by the sound of the doorbell ringing letting them know that the guests were arriving.
"Can you go get the twins and I'll answer the door?" she asked.
"Sure" Stefan said and walked over, placed a kiss on top of her head and headed in the direction of the stairs.
It was two o'clock and the party was in full swing, there was children everywhere.
"Be careful" Damon said as Clay and Clary went running past him into the garden to join their friends on the bouncy castle.
"We will Uncle Damon" they shouted back in their usual sync together which made Damon chuckle to himself.
He joined Caroline and Stefan in the kitchen who was starting to unwrap the food for the kids.
"Need a hand?" he asked seeing how stressed his brother and soon to be sister in law looked.
"Please, can you start to take those trays out and see if everyone is okay for drinks please and get my mom to help too" Caroline asked.
As if hearing Caroline, Liz came walking through the patio doors.
"Need a hand sweetheart?"
"Please mom, can you help Damon and see if anyone needs a refill?"
"Sure, Bonnie is already on the refill job" she smiled to her daughter and grabbed a couple of trays.
"Thanks mom" Caroline said as she and Stefan carried the last few trays out to the garden table.
"Right we'll let the kids have five more minutes them call them to sit and have some food" Stefan said
"Okay" Caroline replied as she started to set out the plates and cups for the ten friends the twins had invited.
She felt a bit of a terrible host because Caroline hadn't really spoken for more then five minutes to some of the parents because of all the running around she was doing making sure the children were okay and sorting out all the presents and then checking on the food, she was grateful that Stefan, Damon, Bonnie and her mom were more interactive with them then she was.
Stefan and Damon started to round up all of the children and within ten minutes they was all sitting down and nibbling on their food, they'd obviously built up an appetite from all the running around and jumping on the bouncy castle.
"This is such a beautiful house" Amy-Leigh said to Stefan and Caroline
"Thank you, it's been in our family for generations" Stefan replied to her.
"So do you all live here?" she bluntly asked.
"Yes we do" was all Caroline said back to her, she never liked Amy-Leigh she always felt she looked down on her because of being a teenage mom, Caroline only knew her because of her younger sister Lisa being in Carolines year at school.
"Oh, I must admit I'm surprised you and Stefan are still together, I remember Lisa telling me when she found out you was pregnant, you was still in high school and had only been with Stefan five minutes before he got you pregnant."
Caroline could feel her blood starting to boil but wasn't going to show it to this stuck up cow in front of her who was obviously jealous of Caroline for having a lovely home, a fantastic fiancé, supporting family and friends and most of all her two beautiful children.
"Well what can I say, I suppose me and Stefan are obviously meant to be for one another" with that Caroline turned away and walked into the kitchen to have five minutes to calm down before she ripped into Amy-Leigh's throat.
Having heard the little conversation between the two women Stefan was about to go after Caroline until Damon stopped him.
"I'll go" was all he said and headed in the direction of Caroline.
Once he went into the kitchen he saw Caroline standing over the sink wiping away a few tears that had escaped her watery eyes.
"You okay?"
"Yeah I'm fine, I shouldn't let her get to me, she's never liked me" Caroline replied back.
"Ignore her Care, she's not worth getting upset over."
"I know, it just irritates me that's all Damon, people looking down on me and Stefan for being teenage parents."
"Hey, you listen to me, you're a fantastic mom to those kids and Stefan is a brilliant dad, never forget that" he said as he wiped a tear escaping from Caroline's eye.
"Thanks Damon" she replied as she gave him a hug and then walked over to Stefan.
"Hey you okay?" he asked noticing that she'd been crying.
"Yeah I'm fine" she smiled.
Liz came over to where Stefan and Caroline was.
"You okay sweetheart?"
"Yes I'm fine mom, shall we go get the cake?" she asked looking at Stefan.
"Yeah" he replied and they headed back over to the kitchen.
They got the cake out of the box, it looked like to cakes made into a big one. On one side it was covered in pink with a picture of a castle and at the top it read 'happy 4th birthday Clary' on the other side it was blue with a picture of a rocket which also read 'happy 4th birthday Clay.' Stefan and Caroline put four candles on each side so the twins would both have four candles each to blow out.
Stefan and Caroline both carried out the cake and started to sing happy birthday as to which everyone joined in singing. Once they placed the cake on the table Clay and Clary blew the candles out and everyone clapped and cheered.
