Author's note:
this was originally the start to the seperate sequel story, but I rather decided to add it onto this story instead. So please read and review and beware hiatuses!
Mia let out a cry of pain. She felt as if something inside her was trying to rip itself out of her stomach. Kol was on the floor next to her, holding her in his arms. And then the pain stopped.
She sighed in relief but she knew it wasn't over. Before Kol could help her up she bolted to the bathroom connected to her bedroom.
She sat by the toilet, vomiting blood mixed with white, a bad mixture. Kol quickly pulled on his boxers and rushed over to her. She pushed him out and locked the door behind her. "Don't come in here. I don't want you to see me like this" Mia said.
Kol waited on the other side of the door. Listening intently as the shower was turned on and hearing more of her cries, and in the sound of pain he could still make out the faint heartbeat that came from inside Mia. She returned to her bedroom thirty minutes later with a towel wrapped around her.
She did not say a word to him as she slipped on a pair of underwear and her nightgown. She climbed back into bed trying to sleep but sleep didn't come. Kol climbed in beside her, pulling her into his arms, letting her sulk against his chest.
"You can't imagine that pain, Kol. I felt like I would die" Mia whispered. Kol kissed her forehead. He hated it. He hated how he couldn't help her, protect her, save her from going through that trauma. As she managed to fall asleep against his chest Kol stayed awake. Wondering how it was possible.
Vampires couldn't have children after being turned they were no longer human but dead. He knew he had to find out how it was possible but he would need help. He picked up Mia's cellphone off the bedside table, dialling Damon's number. The phone didn't ring for long.
"Hello it's like three in the morning" Damon complained.
"Mia's asleep" Kol stated.
"Good for her. Why did you wake me?" Damon asked.
"I think there's something wrong with Mia" Kol said.
"I think there's something wrong with you" Damon said.
"Damon, she's pregnant" Kol said.
"Please tell me you mean metaphorically" Damon said, not believing him.
"No. She's literally going to have my child" Kol said.
Damon paused before saying "No way, you're going to be a baby daddy!" and then hanging up.
Mia sat nervously in the Mystic Falls hospital waiting room. Kol sat next to her, filling in a form. His was serious and emotionless. He looked up from the papers to meet her dark eyes. "You seem pale" he noted. She did indeed. Her fair complexion seemed fairer than it used to be.
Her skin had an unusual light grey tint to it, like a human has when suffering from a cold or flu. She was too unwell to give a proper response, only stating that vampires were supposed to be pale and then saying nothing further.
They were quickly called into the office of Meredith Fell, a doctor they could trust on Damon's account. "What can I do for you?" Meredith asked. It was then that Damon made his entrance into the hospital room where Mia laid down on the bed with Kol at her side and Meredith on her other side.
Mia was confused to see Damon there. She groaned in annoyance. "You told him?" Mia said. "Told him what?" Meredith asked.
"Hey Meredith, he needs you to do a scan" Damon said, knowing Kol wouldn't know what to ask.
"Sure what kind of scan?" she asked.
"The scan you do to check for babies" Damon said.
Meredith was confused but did as asked. Mia sat patiently on the bed as a weird gel was rubbed onto her stomach and some weird monitor thing was being moved around over her lower stomach, showing the result on a screen. Meredith's eyes were wide with shock and confusion. "What is it?" Mia asked her, nervous now.
"You're a vampire and you're carrying a child" Meredith said.
"But there's more..." Mia noted.
"See that there" Meredith said, pointing at two small things on the screen. They almost missed it. "It means that there's more than one inside you. You're having twins" Meredith said.
"Anyway to know the genders?" Kol asked.
"No not until the birth. And there's no way to determine how long she'll be carrying them inside her, or what to feed them or what medication she'll need" Meredith said.
"She's a vampire. She doesn't need medical attention" Damon said.
Mia strode out of the hospital in a fit of anger. Kol and Damon walked out casually. Both tried calling out to her but she refused to listen. She stood waiting at Kol's car. Now she could hear the heartbeat inside her more clearly, wondering if that meant the children were human and if she'd be going through that pain for months.
The last time she was with a child she couldn't stand it. Kol finally caught up with her. "Mia, wait. Think about this. This is good" Kol told her. Hearing him say that only angered her more and she pushed him away.
"So me going through pain is good?" she asked him.
"No. I don't want you to get hurt. But the idea of our children makes me happy. You're carrying my children, Mia. Why shouldn't that make me happy?" Kol said.
He was finally making sense and reaching out to her. She hadn't considered that possibility. The possibility of them having a family of their own.
"It should make you happy. It makes me happy. I'm just scared that's all" Mia said.
"There are worse things to be scared about, my friend and my original friend. There are hunters out there remember" Damon said, reminding them of Antonio and how more were coming.
"We'll be ready for them" Kol told him.
"But will the children be?" Damon asked.
"Wait, what hunters?" Mia asked.
"Antonio was in possession of a white oak stake; the only stake that can kill me and now also you because we are linked. More like him are coming" Kol said.
"And you only thought to tell me this now?" she asked again.
That night the original family gathered at the dinner table for a family dinner. Again the dinner was called because of another special announcement from Kol and Mia.
They all waited patiently to see what the big thing was this time, hopefully thinking they weren't planning to run away to be married in Vegas. If so Rebekah would hunt both of them down. "Something's come up" Kol started.
"Please tell me the wedding's still on!" Rebekah worried.
"The wedding is still on but with some extra guests" Mia told her, rubbing her stomach.
They all looked at her and then back to Kol, realising what she meant. They all didn't believe it and who could blame them.
"Congratulations mother, you're going to be a grandmother" Kol said directly to Esther who was shocked and excited. And as the other originals remained quiet they could make out the small heartbeat coming from inside Mia. Rebekah jumped to her feet, wrapping her arms around Mia. "It's a miracle!" she said with a giggle.
And as Mia hugged Rebekah back she felt the ripping pain vibrating through her and she fell to the ground in pain, letting out another cry of pain.
Rebekah and Kol rushed to her aid, helping her stand. Esther stood from the table and moved to the other side where Kol and Rebekah helped Mia come to a standing position. "Let me see her" Esther said.
The original witch took Mia's hand sin hers, closing her eyes as she chanted something in a language none of them understood. Mia calmed her breathing as the pain inside her washed away within seconds. "Did you do that?" Mia asked Esther, who nodded and then hugged her soon to be daughter in law- the first time they actually hugged.
"I'm having my first grandchild" Esther said happily.
"Actually it's grandchildren. Twins" Kol told her.
"As long as you don't name one Renesmee, you won't lose your head" Rebekah joked, but all knew how badly she hated twilight.
