I drove to the daycare.To see the kids.I walked into the principle's office.He was a young man.A year older than Sorin.He had his charming smile on."Ms.Smi-"I cut him off.

"It's Ms.Whitlock.I came here to make a few things clear.I lied on the papers and forms due to a complicated situation.Now,I am free of that situation and came here to change the information."

"That is against the law.""And you're basically in love with me,you would never snitch on me."He sighed."Alright.Let's correct the papers."We handled it in a few minutes.He was fast.

"Where are the kids?All three of them?""They are at their lunch break."I nodded and called the driver.While he was on his way,I called Liz and told her all about it.

By the time we handled everything,the lunch break was over and Lux was here.We got the kids mid-day and came back to the mansion together.I took off my wig and my lenses at the car.

"I won't need these for a long time,I think."Kids we're tired and they fell asleep almost instantly."What now?""Let me think for a second,ok?"She nodded and backed away.

"Raven?"We were almost at the mansion."Yes?"She looked around us and at the kids."I want to get back with Xander."I scoffed."Are you really ready to put Elijah through all that?"

"Elijah deserves a father like Xander.He is still that caring guy and he has apaologized to me,behind Sorin's back,multiple times.I don't want to lose him!"

I got mad and then we arrived.Before we got out of the car,I stopped her."Elijah...He's a sweet boy and I love him as his auntie.However,I just want you both to be happy."

She tried to leave but I held her back once again."If Xander will make you both happy,then tell him you forgive him.However,I won't be responsible if things go bad."

"It'll only be my fault if I or we both get hurt."We both gave each other a nod and then we left the car.

With me changing the information with the correct one at the daycare,Sorin had found my number.He texted me first.

"I'm downstairs."

I looked down the mansion's window.I was wearing my silk pjs with a cropped top and a short shorts.It was white with black buttons and hem lines.

"You can't be here?""How long have you been back?"I nodded

"You can't be here?""How long have you been back?"I nodded."If I answer a few of your questions,will you leave me alone?"He rolled his eyes and said 'yes' without meaning it.

"How long have you been back?"

"Ever since my birthday.September 24th,if you forgot.Which,I don't believe you did because you were filled with pure rage when you busted the club with guns."

A long silence came in between with his upcoming question and his previous one.

"Asher and Avalon-"I cut him off."No.I didn't tell you about them because you deserved to know!I told you because I had enough!I had enough!ME!"
