AN: Please don't kill me for the next couple chapters. I just had to write what the characters wanted. I, for one, am super excited about this story now. XD

Don't forget I can see how many of you read my new chapters. I'd love for at least half of those people to review.

I'm predicting five more chapters, maybe.

Dante's POV.

School sucks. It really, honestly sucks. What was I thinking? 'Oh I know. You were thinking your attracted to another guy'. God I'm an idiot. I should've stayed with my brothers.

This is not going to end well.

What if Alex doesn't want to be a vampire? Wait, of course he doesn't. I could ask Elijah to find a Kitsune so he can make another black rose, but that could take months. Well I guess whatever happens, happens.

Wait.

If something were to happen to his parents, he'd need someone to talk to. And maybe, just maybe, he'd want to stay a vampire.

Time to call in the big brothers.

Damon's POV.

"You got this little man, no question. Just get loose and step in the box. Look the pitcher in the eyes and tell him you aren't afraid of him. Wait for a pitch you really want and then just swing the bat. Remember to fire that back foot and it's outta here."

He nods and takes a deep breath.

"Hey look over there, hit those people in the chairs behind the fence."

"Ok dad" He says, smiling and walking over to home plate. I head back over to the dugout and stand against the fence.

"Hey coach, do you think he'll hit it out this time?"

"Yea. I know he will, Caleb."

"I bet he will too." Caleb says, standing against the fence.

I turn my attention back to the batters box. The pitcher gets ready for the pitch.

Strike one.

"Come on Alex, you got this." All the boys yell from the dug out.

Strike two.

Alex backs out of the box and looks at me. I smile and point to the out-field. He nods and steps back in the box. His shoulders stop shaking and he winks at the picture. I laugh.

"That's right. Be afraid pitcher. This one's gone." I yell.

The pitcher throws it, it heads straight for home plate. Come on, Alex, you can do it. He swings and then the air stills.

Strike three.

Alex walks over to me with his head down. When he stops in front of me I realize he's waiting to be yelled at.

"That was awesome" I tell him, smiling. He looks up with a look a shock and tears in his eyes.

"I struck out, dad. I sucked." He says.

"What are you talking about? Did you see the pitcher shaking when you winked at him? I thought he was gonna break down and cry." I say, knocking on his helmet. He smiles and pulls it off his head.

"Yea. I was pretty good, wasn't I?" Alex says, laughing.

"More like great."

"Do you think I'll be as good as you when I'm older?" He asks.

"I think you'll be better."

I open my eyes to the sound of something banging noise coming from outside my door. I climb out of bed, leaving Elena to her beauty sleep. I open the door and walk down the hall, trying to be as quiet as possible in case it's an intruder. I reach the corner and stand against the wall, creeping my way to the edge. I look around and groan, stepping out into the open. They pull away from each other and look at anything other than me.

"In my hallway, really?"

"Sorry" Alex mumbles, cheeks turning bright red.

"Ok then, going back to bed." I say. "Take it somewhere else please." I say, sighing and walking back to my room. Elena is nowhere to be found, on instinct I start to think the worse until I hear the bath running. Sighing, I go to join her.

"Want some company?" I ask, flashing her a smirk.

"Only if you plan on making me breakfast." She says, keeping her eyes closed.

"Oh so were negotiating now?" I say, pulling my shirt off and standing there in my boxers.

"Mm hmm" She mumbles back.

"Well unfortunately I don't feel like cooking today, I guess I'll just go take a shower. Bye-bye" I say, smirking and waving when she looks at me. She rolls her eyes and motions for me to join her.

Alex POV.

We both start laughing the second he's out of sight. We walk to my room and close the door.

"D we really shouldn't be doing this." I say, melding our lips back together. I sigh in contentment.

"Say's who?"

"Say's me, Adrianna." I whisper pulling away. She groans and lays her head on my shoulder.

"Come on, were just messing around." She says, kissing my neck. I back up and stand arms length away with my hands on her shoulders. I shake my head and go lie down on the bed, she walks over and lies down beside me.

"It's obvious, you know." She whispers into my ear.

"What is?" I ask.

"That your attracted to each other" She whispers.

"God, Adrianna. We're not gay so drop it."

"Well you both look at each other like you've seen the sun for the first time. Just saying."

Elena's POV.

I walk to the front door, wiping the whipped cream off my face from our food fight. I pull it open with a smile then freeze, happiness vanishing from my features.

"Elena, so good to see you again. This is my brother, Baltazar. We are looking for our younger siblings, Dante and Adrianna. I've been told they are residing here."

"May we come in?"
