Damon's POV

'Welcome to Italy' the sign said as we hoped of the airplane. All around us people spoke the beautiful language, Italian. Grayson led us through the crowded airport as Elena held onto my hand. Ever since we had landed she was looking around with big, doe eyes at her surroundings. She also ha a massive smile plastered onto her little face. She caught me staring at her and she leaned up and rubbed her button nose with mine.

She giggled as a huge gasp escaped someone's mouth. Turning around I met big blue eyes. She was short and had a mop of black hair on her head.

"Nonna?" I ask her. Her tears filled her eyes.

"Damon?" My grandmothers thick Italian accent asks. I nodded and she opens her arms wide as I greet her embrace.

"My, My little nipote is all grown up," she squeezed my waist as my chin rested on her soft hair.

"I've missed you sweet boy," she said cupping my jaw.

"Wow you are one handsome fellow, boy," the Italian voice of my grandfather said from beside her. I looked up to see bright blue eyes, almost as bright as mine, looking at me. I walked up to him and held my hand out to greet him but he pulled me into a hug.

"I've missed you boy," he said into my shoulder and I was still shocked with the fact that he was hugging me.

"Me too, nonno," I said back.

"Damon, who's this dear?" My nonna asks as she points to the Gilbert's.

"Oh, this here is my lovely girlfriend, Elena," I said rubbing her arm and my nonna came up to her hand pulled her into a hug.

"You my dear are one very lucky girl to have Damon," she smiled to elena and she nodded.

"Indeed I am," she said and met my gaze. I couldn't help but blush.

"...And this is Grayson, Elena's Father," I said pointing to him. My grandfather shook hands with him.

"Thank you for letting us stay Mrs..." Elena trailed off as I remember I never told her there last name.

"Oh dear, call me Nonna," she smiled to Elena. I walked to Elena and kissed her crown.

"So shall we go?" My grandfather asks as we all agreed.


Elena's POV

The drive was wonderful. I loved all the little villages we past and the people around the areas. It was so much different here than in Mystic Falls. I was in the back seat of Nonna & Nonnos car with Damon and Dad beside me. Damon intertwined his slender fingers with mine as I leaned my head on his broad shoulder.

"So Elena, are you into anything in particular?" Nonna asks from the front seat.

"Yes well I really love to write," I said blushing as Nonna smiled at me. Her pale blue met mine. I can so tell Damon took his looks after this side of the family.

"That's wonderful! Oh here we are," Nonna said as we turned into a long driveway. Trees hung over the drive as we pulled into a round about that lead to the door. My eyes pooped out of there sockets as I saw the mansion in front of me.

"Wow," I breathed as Damon chuckled.

"Yes it is. It used to be a boarding house a while ago," Nonno said from the drivers seat. Slowly turning the engine off, I climbed over Damon to get out and see the beautiful house. It was perfect.

Once we were inside Nonna lead me and Damon to a bedroom. The giant hallways lead to a staircase. It was very old fashioned looking inside. From the Persian rugs to the giant bookshelves.

"Damon, I'm sure you recognize this room," Nonna smiled as Damon pushed the door open. A rather room came to my view, a giant bed laid slightly to the left.

"I'll let you two settle in," Nonna smiled again as she shut the door. Damon placed the suitcases down and let out a sigh.

"Welcome to my old room," my eyes opened again.

"This was your room?" I asked as he nodded.

"It's pretty grown up but you see my mother wanted to give me whatever I wanted." He explained and I walked along the polished wooden floors to a tile area.

"This was your bathroom?!" I asked as I looked at the walk in shower and giant bathtub along with huge mirrors above the sink.

"Yep," he said behind me and I felt arms wrap around me. I turned round and kissed his cheek before running and jumping on to his giant bed. I began to jump up and down.

"Your such a two year old," Damon chuckled shaking his head.

"And you love me for it," I giggled as he joined me.

"Of corse," he smiled wrapping his arms around me.

He slowly kissed my neck as I shivered under his touch. He pushed me down onto the mattress. He met my lips and sucked my lower lip in his mouth softly. A small knock stopped our movements. We turned to see Nonna with a giant smile.

"Oh how I love young love," she chuckled as I blushed.

"Damon, you have a very special visitor," she added with a bright smile as we got up and straightened out our clothes.


Damon's POV

We walked down the stairs and my heart pounded. Who could it be? I had no idea but I was nervous. Elena saw my stress and grabbed my hand, squeezing it softy. Grayson, Nonna and Nonno were facing the visitor. My jaw dropped as my heart beat.

The visitors bright green eyes saw me and he gasped at my appearance. Tears filled my eyes as he moved closer to me. I ran up to him and wrapped my arms around his broad body. He patted my back as he squeezed me with as much force. I cried into his shoulder at the thought I actually got to see him again. He rubbed my back. His masculine voice spoke.

"I've missed you too Brother."
