A/N Sorry for the long wait-I was so busy working on "Safe in Your Arms".

As promised, here is a summery for the story. Btw, pls help me reach 200 ;)

Warning: This is a filler chapter to ease from the stuff that had been going on lately in the story.

In my story, vampires are slowly taking over the world. Vampires have human companions and although authorities try to protect human rights, the vampires are doing what they please because no one really stops them. Elena was kidnapped and taken to Damon Salvatore, and at first he forces her to become his blood companion. However, the two develop a romantic relationship until Damon killed Vladimir, one of the most cruel leaders, to protect Elena from being tormented and bitten. Duncan, the other leader, punished the couple by sending Elena to the Dark Dimension, where Elena learnt about her fate-That she must die because her blood is special. It can end vampire existence.

During the time in the dark dimension, Elena became Stefan's blood companion, who is a vampire that cared only about her blood-and his revenge on his brother. During that time, Elena was put to sleep and she had blood taken to create hybrid armies, and she had been taken from Damon for six months, not weeks, like she believed. At that time, Damon was forced to kill and turn to his old ways.

On the other hand, humans Alaric and Jeremy, and Bonnie try to save the wounded persons after vampire attacks, and also try to free human beings from being treated badly. They attack on the Dark Dimension however Elena and Damon had already escaped by the help of a witch, Stephanie. Soon after, Damon takes Elena to a house he owned to keep her safe. However, they soon realize that Elena is pregnant with Damon's child, and that Klaus will come to take their baby daughter and kill her since she's the only one of her kind. However, the baby can be either killed in Elena's womb (killing Elena too) or when she is ready enough to know her powers. To protect her daughter from a terrible future, Elena spoke to Stephanie and begged her to remove the link between a mother and her baby so that Elena's powers will not travel to her baby's and she'll die instead of her daughter. On the other hand, Jeremy decided to help Elena and Damon after he learnt his sister is alive but he decided to keep it a secret since Damon is a vampire-and vampires were getting killed by Alaric and Bonnie along with the new device that was to be spelled soon.

Last chapter we saw Elena and Klaus's first encounter, and that Stefan wants Katherine back at all costs, that's why he is now determined to protect Elena's baby, because she is the last chance he's got if Klaus is dead-Because Stefan teamed up with Klaus in hope that he'll free Katherine. Jeremy was also caught by Bonnie and Alaric and they are not trusting him. Damon learns about Elena's plan on giving up her life for Cheryl's.

Hope this summary helped ;)

"Damon, my child…"

Damon heard a soft, velvety voice. It had been two days, and he hadn't yet spoken to Elena. She had tried to talk to him, but whether it was anger, anxiety, or sadness, he didn't want to face her. He was also feeling guilty for the things he said to her and the harsh sentence that he wouldn't love their daughter if she died. That was not true, he'll love Cheryl no matter what, but no girl could replace his Elena.

"Mom?" Damon gasped out semi-consciously. "What's going on? How are you here?"

"My child," Elizabeth Salvatore said, smiling at her son, dressed all in white. She looked like an angel. "I see that you are so sad, and scared…"

"I am, mother," Damon let himself cry, "They're after my girl and my baby."

"Damon, everything will be alright," His mum assured him. "I'm doing the best I can from up there. I can't do much, but Damon, have faith. And support Elena, Damon, don't abandon her. She's lost and sad, and I can see that."

"I know…"

"Don't leave her alone, Damon," The voice repeated again.

Damon woke up with a start. He noticed that he was sweating, and Elena was asleep next to him. He had been going to bed much later than she was, but still, he didn't miss the tear-tracks down her cheeks.

He sighed deeply. His mother was right. He shouldn't leave Elena alone. He should help her and support her, and then try to talk her out of the idea. But after all, Elena needed comfort and love, and courage-because she was ready to be killed-for their daughter.

Damon turned on his side to touch Elena's cheek. Her hand was on his pillow, almost waiting for him to take it. She was close to him, her body almost touching his, and if her eyes were open, he was sure that they'll be pleading. He sighed again, caressing her cheek more softly before grabbing her hand and putting it in his own.

"Damon?" She said in her adorable sleepy voice.

"Everything's fine, Elena. Go back to sleep," He kissed her palm, smiling softly at her. However, she only widened her eyes, a smile covering her lips. "Are you mad at me?"

"No, I'm not," Damon assured her. "I'm sorry, Elena. I didn't mean what I said."

"I forgive you," Elena tightened her grip on his hand. "And I'm sorry too, for not discussing it with you."

"What the hell's going on here?" Jeremy was holding his head, his body was paralyzed from the waist down. He couldn't stand up or move.

"I've noticed you acting strange," Bonnie said in a heartbroken voice. "But I didn't think that you can be working against us…"

"No, I'm not working against you, Bonnie," Jeremy said, almost pleading. "Please understand that."

"I can't," Bonnie replied, tears in her eyes. "God, I trusted you so much." She wiped away the cool tears. "I did a spell to make you unable to move. There is no use in trying to escape."

Suddenly, Alaric appeared next to Bonnie. Apparently, Jeremy was in one of the cells they used for vampires.

"We know that you're not a vampire," Alaric added, "We tried vervain. But I want you to tell me what they make you do."

"Alaric, I'm not working with vampires," Jeremy insisted. "I would never do such a thing! Why are you doubting me?"

"You have sent texts to Damon Salvatore, for God's sake!" Bonnie cried out, "How could you do this to us, Jeremy? And to your sister? Or do you not care if we'll get her back or not?"

"Elena is okay!" Jeremy exploded before he could even mutter the words.

Alaric and Bonnie's heads whipped around to face him. "What?"

"I went to see Elena," Jeremy confessed, "Bonnie…Your best friend is pregnant."

Elena was preparing a Caesar salad when she felt a kick in her belly. It was the first time that she felt her daughter kick with more strength, and although she hissed a little from the pain a warm smile tugged on her lips. Yes, her daughter was alive, and she was a baby-Not some kind of supernatural being like they were picturing her. No, she was just a little, fragile baby.

"You felt her, didn't you?" Damon said, as he stopped chopping the vegetables and wiped his hand with a paper towel.

"Yes, I did," Elena smiled, "And…Oh my God, Damon. When she hears your voice, she just jumps!"

"What?" Damon asked, amazed, and Elena smiled as Cheryl seemed to jump again. "I've noticed her doing it before, but I didn't know that until now. Whenever she hears you, she either jumps or kicks…"

Damon rubbed his hands against Elena's belly. "I can feel her, you know," he explained, "Vampire senses are sharper than humans. I can feel her like I feel you." He put Elena's hand on her own belly. "Look," He instructed, "Here is her hand."

"She's kicking with her hand, then," Elena smiled. "Clever baby."

"And I can feel her feat," He continued, exploring Elena's belly, and she could feel the baby jump inside her.

"She's developing faster than a human baby," He said, "She's not as fragile as human babies are. Her bones are more firm, I can sense that about her."

"Just like her dad, then," Elena grinned, "She'll be strong and determined."

"But she'll be beautiful like her mother," Damon captured Elena's lips in his own. "And she'll be warm, kind and unselfish."

"I can't wait to hold her," Elena stated, though she knew that there was a high chance that she wouldn't be able to hold her, because Elena could be dead.

"Elena," Damon took her face gently in his hands. "You will hold her. We both will. We're going to be fine. We are going to buy a new house outside of Mystic Falls, and I will be the one to stop the vampire-human war that is going on. For you. With you. I won't raise my daughter in an environment that is…war."

"I know…"

"It will be okay, Elena," He assured her again, "We'll fight for what's ours. We will live again."

Then, all of a sudden, Damon kneeled down in front of her.

"Elena, I've been thinking about this for quite a while now," His voice was soft, almost shy. "But I never asked you before."

Elena was frozen as Damon took out a small box. "Will you marry me, Elena?"

Never in a hundred years did Elena expect something like that. Her dream would come true-to become Mrs. Elena Salvatore. To keep living with him, to raise her child, to be able to call him her husband.

"Yes!" She almost screamed, and then Damon had slipped the ring into her finger, admiring how perfect it fit into her thin, long finger. The ring was his mother's, a diamond ring with a special gem on it, which was very expensive. Now, it was going to be Elena's, his wife's.

Now he just had to fulfill his promises-That he would cherish what he had forever.

As Elena smiled at the sight of the ring in her finger, Damon took this opportunity to lift her up on the kitchen counter, kissing her without giving her a chance to breathe or talk. His hands stroked her hips and waist as his finger traced up and down her spine, causing her to shiver.

"Ah, we better stop, Mrs. Salvatore," Damon purred against her cheek. "We don't want you to over-exert yourself, don't we?"

Elena pouted, making her look adorable even more, and Damon kissed her again, gentler this time.

He knew now that he was going to cherish her forever. He wouldn't push her to give up her mortality, or to make her feel anything less than his wife and his soulmate. On the contrary, he knew that Elena was a strong, independant woman, even as a human.

"Come on, let me help you down," Damon said, and Elena twirled around him, placing a kiss on his lips before he guided her to the couch and continuing the cooking himself.
