Damon P.O.V
We just drove past the Mystic Falls sign. This is where she was born, it is her home and I'm about the meet her only family to drop not one but two time bombs consecutively. So God help me, one wrong move and my impression will go down the drain.
After the heartfelt night of confessions we decided to take a quick trip to meet her brother who was visiting home for thanksgiving.
Elena was biting her lips I could sense her nervousness as she looked at her hometown.
'' Regretting your proposal already? ''
She looked at me and smiled before shaking her head.
'' Nope, I don't have regrets about anything. In fact these last few months were the best part of my life.''
I reciprocated the her happiness but was distracted as her worried expression came to my mind.
''Then why do you look so tense?''
She sighed as she glanced outside.
'' I am worried about how Jeremy will react to both news.''
I nodded my head as I kept driving but my mind wandered to thanksgiving when I received the life changing new and then same night when she purposed me.
("Marry me Damon, be mine and make me yours forever.'')
I just watched her with dumbfounded expression.
'' You… you want to marry me.?''
She smiled and nodded her head in affirmative.
'' Come with me.''
I gently lifted her in my arms and carried her back in our bed room.
Once she was seated comfortably on our bed, I went to our wardrobe and took out square box hidden at back.
I heard Elena gasp as she saw the box in my hands.
''Damon?''
I smiled at her as I bend down on my knees in front of her and held the box open containing an old Sapphire ring with tiny diamonds surrounding it.
''It was my mom's and she passed it on to me on her death bed. My grandmother's wedding ring who passed on to her only daughter so she can pass it to her daughter but as you know my mom only gave birth to boys so she asked me to give this ring to girl I want to marry one day.''
I felt tears starting to form in my eyes as I remember my mom but I shook them off and focus on Elena, staring at me through the veil of water that emerged in her eye. So with mixture of nervousness and excitement I finally asked.
''So here it goes.
Elena from the moment I laid eyes on you I knew one thing for sure that one day you will be mine and the more I came to knew you the more I want to spend my life with you because you make my life worth living by filling it with love and happiness. So will you marry me and make me the happiest man in this world?''
The barrier was broken as tears fell freely staining her cheeks as she threw her arms around me and kissed me with everything she has.
''Yes! Yes. A countless times yes.''
I breathe in relief even though she proposed to me first but still there was little doubt in my mind but now there is nothing but love and adoration as I slid my mother's ring on my Elena's finger.
The tears finally slipped from my eyes as I kissed her ring finger and then her lips.
''Thank you Lena for your love, for this baby and for agreeing to share your life with me. I can't wait to marry you, in fact let's go and get married.''
But before I can move she laughed and took my face in her hands.
''Wait a minute we need to take a small trip before we tie the knot.''
I looked at her confused as she kept on talking.
''We have to tell Jeremy about our baby and our wedding face to face and if you survive than we can get married.''
Ya right if I survive.)
I was still lost in my thoughts when I heard Elena's voice.
''There Damon, that white house, stop there.''
I looked at the modest looking house with swing on the porch as I stopped my car.
Elena beamed with excitement as she got out and ran up few steps while I followed her with our bag.
She used her keys to open the door and we went inside.
There on a couch sat Jeremy Gilbert who stood up in surprise as Elena jumped into his arms.
''Oh Jeremy I am so happy to see you.''
I could see he was taken aback by this sudden intrusion but he smiled at his sister and hugged her back.
''It's great to see you too sis, although I didn't expect to see you guys.''
He looked at me with same brown eyes that matched her sister.
''I thought your brother and his girlfriend is visiting? ''
I gulped as I looked at Elena and she eyed with the same nervousness.
''Umm Jer, why don't we sit down so Damon and I can explain about our sudden visit.''
He looked at us with suspicion but sat down on a chair leaving the couch for me and Elena.
Once we settled down we stayed quite for a while.
''So what is the reason that you guys came all the way to Mystic Falls.''
Elena squeezes my hand before taking a deep breath as she spoke.
''I am pregnant Jeremy.''
As I expected his eyes shot open wide as he launched at Elena and then me. So before he can kill me or worse, I decided to deliver another news.
''And we proposed each other so now we are engaged and soon we will get married" I took a pause before adding, "that is if you spare my life.''
I felt kick as Elena reprimanded me for my poor sense of humour.
I winced lightly but still kept looking at Jeremy who was in some kind of trance.
Finally after a long minute his face change to form an emotion which was anger as he stared murderously at me.
''You knocked-up my sister!''
Yup he is going to kill me.

Elena P.O.V
My brother was seething in anger as he stood up and pointed his finger at us and started screaming at us.
''I told you to be careful Lena.
All your life you never set foot outside of Virginia and only months after you start living in New York you told me you fall in love with some guy you barely knew and then you move in with him after few weeks even when I warned you so much.
I knew he was taking advantage of your innocence and I am right. He knocked you up so now you are stuck with him.
I can't believe you Lena, How can you let stranger take advantage of you. Our parents would be so disappointed at you because I am!''
He was still looking at us with anger as I felt the tears starting to flow down.
Before I knew it Damon was at Jeremy's side grabbing him by his collar.
''Apologies to your sister now or I will rip your toung out from your mouth.''
I gasped as I heard him threaten my brother.
I had to intervene and come between them as I used all my strength to push them away from each other.
I never saw Damon this angry, not even when he met Matt.
''How dare you threaten my brother apologise to him now!''
He looked at me and his face softened a little.
He brings me into his arms and then looked at Jeremy who was kind of shaken.
''I am sorry man but no one disrespect Elena in front of me. I know you are angry about this situation but I love and respect your sister too much for you to threat her like this.''
I looked at my brother pleadingly.
''I am sorry for being such a disappointment to you but truth is I am not sorry for loving this amazing man in fact I feel honoured that he is in love with me and I am proud to be his wife and mother of his child. If you don't want anything to do with us then I will respect that.''
I grab Damon hand and silently moved towards door when we heard Jeremy voice.
''Lena, wait. I am so sorry for those hurtful words. I am proud of the women you have become and I am sure our parents are proud of you wherever they are.
Please don't leave me you are my only family.''
Jeremy was crying too so I ran into his arm and just like that all was forgotten.
He wiped my tears away and looked at Damon.
''I am sorry man. That was out of line.''
Damon smirked at him and joined our hug.
''It's okay little brother. Siblings fight a lot and now soon we are going to be brothers' so consider this to be practice round. But in future keep your sister out and if you want then we can settle our argument in old fashion way.''
They laughed and shake their hands as both men called it a truce.
I am glad things were normal after that.
We were having lunch at grill when Jeremy finally asked.
''So when is wedding I suppose you want to get married before my niece or nephew came in this world? ''
We smiled and I rubbed my stomach.
Damon saw this and smiled at me before he answered my brother.
''This New Years we have set a date to start our new life.''
Jeremy was awestruck as he looked at me with puzzled expression.
''You guys are getting married on New years eve?''
I grinned and nodded happily as I raise my juice to make toast.
''Happy New years and to my new life.''
Both my brother and fiancé cheered with me to my new and happy beginning.
