Delena's Miracle

Chapter 18/ The Bahamas

Elena's POV

-7:09 am-

I woke up in my lingerie.
Damon was naked and asleep.

Surprisingly Arabella hadn't woken up yet.

I quietly got up and tried not to wake Damon.

I went to the toilet and then realised something.

"Wtf!" I shouted.
Damon must've woke up from that and shouted back "what's wrong!?"

I ran back into our room and he was sat up in bed.

"I think I'm on my period." I muttered.
"What? That's impossible." He shrieked.
"Maybe not..we never found out if oreander was permanent.." I told him.

Then of course, Arabella started crying.

"I'll get her." He said as he pulled the blanket off him.
"Umm, maybe I should. Seen as you're a bit.." I muttered as I looked at him.
"Naked?.. yeah." He smirked.

I sped into the nursery and saw Arabella laying in her crib balling her eyes out.

Every time she woke up alone she would start crying.

"Sh it's okay sweetheart." I told her.
Once I was holding her she stopped crying.

I carried her into the kitchen and started grabbing what I needed to make her a bottle.

Damon heard me and walked in.
"Do you want me to take her?" He asked.
I nodded and handed him Arabella.

"Hi baby!" He cooed.
He took her into the lounge and I finished making her bottle.

Once done I went over to them and passed Damon the bottle.

He started feeding her.

"So you think Oreander restarted your productive system..permanently?" He questioned.

"Well, I can't think of another reason I'd be on my period...I am still a vampire." I told him.

"There's something else.." I said.
"Yeah?"
"Never mind. I'm going to have a shower." I blurted out.

He didn't seem to think anything of it.

Damon's POV

-6:31 pm-

I was getting buttoning up Bella's grow bag before bed.

"All done!" I exclaimed as I picked her up.

I grabbed a pacifier and gave it to her.

Then I kissed her head and laid her in the crib.

"Night night sweetie." I whispered.

After I turned off the lights and shut the door.
Elena was in the lounge, I walked over and sat next to her.

It was kind of awkward between us.
I didn't know why, it was just like, ever since Arabella was born we'd been more...separated.

Before we would be together nearly every second, either cuddling,hugging,even kissing.
Now we just woke up,looked after Bella and then once she was asleep for the night we went on our phones.

I thought I was being too paranoid, maybe because all of my plans for this vacation.

She was texting someone on her phone.
So I just went on my phone to clear some of the tension.

"Can I ask you something?" She said.
I looked over at her and replied "of course."

"Last night, while we were....." She muttered.
I smirked and she continued with "you said something,well asked something."
"What?" I asked.
"Never mind." She said as she shook her head.
"Oh! When I asked you to marry me." I said casually.
