Hey, barely no one reviewed. :(

Anyway, here's the next chapter, it's very short. I think the shortest one so far, (since I wasn't very inspired, just kidding.) This is written in Aunt Judith's POV, 'cause I think it would be interesting to know what's going through her head. I hope you enjoy and please review!

Disclaimer: I don't own anything.

Recap (since I hate when I read a chapter and can't remember what happened before):

Elena left Fell's church after sleeping with Damon. She had his child; Miranda. Bad things happened and she needed Damon and Stefan's help. Demons are after Miranda and they want her parents dead too. She gets there and gets attacked. Damon has broken limbs and Elena has amnesia. Miranda stays with her daddy. Aunt Judith shows up and needs help, Robert has been kidnapped. She finds out about the supernatural world. Elena remembers. Josh, her sort of bf shows up. Things happen, a fight ensues, Elena sleeps with Damon. Everything is happy and Miranda pulls a prank on Damon. Judith shows up again, the demons want Damon for Robert.

Chapter 16

I Wish You Were Here

"What? No way." Elena said in anger.

"I... I want Robert back, but I know it's out of the question." I said.

I stared at my niece. I wanted to cry and hug Elena and never let go. For so long I had thought Elena was dead, I had somewhat moved on and found piece of mind because I knew she would be with her parents, but now she was alive. It was a miracle. But, I couldn't break down now, I had to be strong and deal with the mess we had all created.

"Do you have a plan?" I asked Stefan. He gave me a small nod, it wasn't very reassuring.

"Sage and some of his allies are to arrive soon. Once they are here we will assess the situation and plan from there." Stefan said.

He was so serious. He always seemed like the serious type, always brooding. He seemed, when Elena was in high school, the safe choice for someone to spend the rest of her life with. Damon was dangerous, mysterious; I never wanted Elena near him. But, over the years he had proven himself. He had grown out of his teenage rebellion. That's what I thought before. But, I know so much more now. He had been in that teenage rebellion for centuries. Dear me, I could never imagine doing that, it gives me a head ache to think about it. I looked over at the three young adults (I suppose Stefan counts as a teenager, though he far surpasses my years in existence). Miranda was now asleep in her mother's lap. Another shocking revelation. My dear niece had lived and had a daughter. Something I wished she could've lived to have and now she does. I looked over at Damon; he was far from innocent. But, for some reason I now felt remorseful for yelling at him earlier. We all had tough decisions to make.

"That's good." I finally said to Stefan.

Suddenly I felt out of sorts, almost awkward, everyone's eyes were on me. I could tell they were watching me to see if I would break down. I wouldn't. I was stronger than they thought; I had gone through difficult things in my youth. Some things that I would never like to divulge. I awkwardly said my good-byes and told Elena to call me when they devised a plan.

When I got home I put my purse on the couch and waited for Margaret to get back home. Over the years Margaret had become like a daughter to me. I loved her so much. Robert and I had always wanted children, but two years ago we had found out that I was barren; I couldn't have children. I had been depressed for a month over this issue, but Margaret got me out of the depression unintentionally. She had come home from school and had made a painting for me. It had six stick figures: Mommy, Daddy, Elena, Margaret, Robert and 'my other Mommy'. I had cried and hugged Margaret. I didn't want to replace her parents and I never would. She never called me mommy, but on rare occasions she would write it in her pictures or her homework that I was her mommy. And that was enough for me. I had Margaret, that's all that mattered. Margaret walked into the house.

"Hi, bye." She smiled and waved at me before going back outside to play with her friend's.

Now, at the age of eight, she was looking more and more like her big sister. She had blond hair and a fair complexion; it was almost like her skin glowed. Her eyes were the only things that were different; they were blue, but a deeper blue then Elena's. Personality wise she was sweeter and more caring towards others, she was very smart for her age and she always wanted to help others. She also had an interest in all things supernatural. Hmmm. I wonder why? Life here had almost been perfect over this past year, until Robert had gone missing and I was thrust into the supernatural world. Something I could've lived the rest of my life not knowing. Elena's whole situation was very confusing. I watched Margaret play outside and wished my husband was here next to me.

I would have him by my side soon. All I had to do was wait... and worry.
