Gilberts [Damon Salvatore]

Chapter 18. Under Control

Damon is laying on my veranda, I open my room to take my jacket and gasp "My heart will stop one day"

"Use it, what you will do today?"

"I have to__"

"Drive your kids, Mom. you know I have a son called Stefan too"

I look at him confused "What do you want?"

"I take you to talk about wanting to start a new life and get to know each other"

"As?"

"Single parents"

"That's weird but I will call you after driving them" 

"Well, I will take you after the party"

 I nod smiling and get downstairs, and Elena is walking out of the house, I shout "Jessica! School time!"

Elena shouts too "Come on Jeremy, going to school! Walking out the door now!"

Jenna says "Forgot this" She gives her a thermos

Elena says "Thank you"

Jessica gets downstairs "Here"

I say "Ready, let's go"

I opens the door, John is there, and he was about to knock, John with a smile "Eliana"

"OH MY GOD! Hey" I hug him, and he hugs me back "Good to see you, I missed you so much"

"I missed you more" He left me "Elena, Jessica"

Elena says "Uncle John! Hi"

Jessica says "Hi, uncle"

John looking at Jenna "Jenna"

Jenna says "John, you made it"

John says "I said I'll be here before noon" He enters the house.

Jenna says "Oh what you say and what you do are typically two very different things"

Jeremy comes down the stairs, saying "Uncle John, what's up?"

John says "Hey!" Jeremy slaps him on the shoulder and leaves "I had some business in town; I thought that a visit was in order"

Elena asks "How long are you staying?"

John says "I don't know yet"

I say "Okay, well, I'm gonna drive them, I'll see you later to sit like always"

John says "I will make our coffee" 

We leave; Jenna looks at us and closes the door.

《♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡》

I get back home, and John opens the door for me "Let's sit in the kitchen"

I head into the kitchen and sit down and take off my jacket "Where's Jenna?"

"In her room, how are you?"

"better and you?"

"It's okay, the nightmares are over"

"Kind of"

John looks at my arms "The scars are gone"

I look at my hand "Yes, I recovered"

"Mrs Lockwood's news?

"Still angry" My phone rang 'Undead, Rick' "Wait" I answer "Yes, Rick"

Alaric on the phone "Emergency come to school"
