It was two in the morning when Elena woke up to a sharp pain. She jolted up to see what looked like water and blood all over her. Elena's eyes widened.
"Jeremy! Bonnie! Caroline!" Elena yelled to them, she hoped she was loud enough.
Obviously she was because they came in.
"I think it's time" Elena groaned.
"Okay, Caroline and Jeremy hold her hands while I get ready" Bonnie went to go get supplies.
"You're going to be okay" Jeremy took his place next to Elena.
"I just want Henrik out of me" Elena groaned in pain.
Bonnie came back in.
"Okay I need you to push" Bonnie ordered.
"AHHHHHH!" Elena screamed when she did.
*7 in the morning*
At seven in the morning Elena gave birth to a baby boy, Henrik Jere Gilbert. Elena took a shower to get the blood off while Caroline and Bonnie changed the sheets and put on new ones. Jeremy was downstairs holding his nephew with pride. Henrik had Kol's hair, lips, nose, and boy parts while the rest was Elena. Elena came downstairs and saw Jeremy rocking the baby back and forth. Elena looked alive again, which she was happy for. Being almost dead was a pain in the ass and it killed her. Elena walked next to Jeremy.
"You look bright and shinny" Jeremy smiled.
"I feel bright and shinny" Elena smiled back.
"Want to hold him?" Jeremy asked.
Elena nodded, she hasn't held him at all yet, she just wanted to get to the shower because sitting in your own blood is nasty. Elena gently took Henrik from Jeremy and smiled when Henrik opened his eyes and looked at Elena. Henrik and Elena had matching eyes and she smiled. Elena was going to love this baby always. Bonnie came down and looked at her.
"You look happy" Bonnie pointed to the baby.
"I feel it and not just because I can walk on my own again, which I'm happy for" Elena smiled.
"Yeah, but you do know you and Caroline have to stay out here right?" Bonnie asked.
Elena sighed and nodded.
"When you were in the shower I put a protection spell on Henrik so in case Kol tried to track him down than he couldn't" Bonnie confessed to her.
"Okay" Elena nodded.
"Bonnie and I will be here until tomorrow and then we'll be leaving and you and Caroline are to stay here" Jeremy touched Elena's cheek.
"I understand just please be careful, Kol knows about the baby being here now and Kol will do anything to get me and Henrik" Elena warned her friend and brother.
"We will" Bonnie nodded.
Kol woke up and looked at the time. It was noon and Kol shot up, today was the day the baby was going to be born, unless it happened already. Kol mentally laughed at himself for thinking the baby would come out this early. Kol went downstairs to see his brothers and sister in the living room along with Greta.
"Hello" Kol said to her.
"Klaus called and asked if there is a possiblity if I can track down your baby" Greta got to the point.
"Can you?" Kol asked.
"I tried and the witch must have blocked the baby as well" Greta answered.
"Damn it" Kol groaned in annoyance.
"There isn't much I can do" Greta said to him.
Kol nodded and went back to his room. He pulled clothes out of his closet and picked out an outfit. He got changed into a black t-shirt, with blue jeans, and his boots. He walked back downstairs and out the door. He went to the grill and got himself a drink. He looked to see that guy that was at Elena's house, he was with a blonde haired guy. Kol listened to their conversation.
"Yeah Jeremy took Elena to the lake house so Kol couldn't find her" Tyler said to Matt.
"That's probably a good choice" Matt agreed.
"Yeah, Caroline and Bonnie went up there as well, Jeremy called and said him and Bonnie would be back tomorrow" Tyler said to Matt.
"So when is Elena going in labor?" Matt asked confused.
"Oh she woke up at two this morning and her water broke, she finally had the baby at seven this morning" Tyler replied.
"I have to call her" Matt said.
"Yeah, want to play pool?" Tyler asked.
Kol got out of the conversation and grew pissed. He paid for his drink and left the grill. He flashed home and walked into the house to see Elijah on the couch.
"What happened?" Elijah asked.
"I listened to, two boys that know Elena and they said she finally had the baby at seven this morning" Kol was mad.
"Oh Kol" Elijah put a hand on his shoulder.
"I need her found Elijah, I can't miss the baby's life" Kol was panicking.
"You won't, Klaus and Rebekah are finding a way to see if they can find them" Elijah reassured him.
"They're at some lake house, the dark haired boy said that the Gilbert's had a lake house, he just didn't say where" Kol got a drink of whiskey.
"This is a new lead" Elijah said looking at his little brother.
"Maybe to you, I don't know where it is" Kol refilled his glass.
"I'll call Nik" Elijah left the room.
Kol sighed and sat in the living room drinking his sarrows away.
Elena poked her finger and put a few drops of blood in Henrik's bottle. Elena fed him and of course he tasted the blood along with the formula. Elena thought he hummed in happiness but she wasn't sure. She was sitting in her room on her rocking chair that was there watching her son in awe. Everyone else was putting his crib together and Elena was grateful she had people who cared for her. Someone knocked on the door and Caroline showed herself.
"Hey Lena and little Henrik" Caroline touched his face and he looked at her.
"Hey" Elena smiled at her.
"You look like you were born for this" Caroline was talking about the motherhood.
"Yeah, I just wish he wasn't going to stop aging after he turned a certain age you know" Elena looked at Henrik and smiled.
"Yes but it will be worth it when you get him away from Kol" Caroline reassured her.
"What about Henrik? What happens when he hits the age and I'm old and I die? He will live forever and I can't do anything because I'll be dead?" Elena sighed.
"You're right" Caroline was rendered speechless.
They sat there watching little Henrik drink his blood formula. This was going to be a long life time.
