It was a beautiful first day of spring the next day, and Tyler had invited Damon and Stefan to the Lockwood's mansion for a party to celebrate the occasion.

Damon happily marched into the nursery and gently woke Alyssa up. He helped her get dressed into a pastel yellow dress with a white bow on the front, white frilly socks and tied her hair halfway up, and clipped a white bow in her hair.

"Oh, my goodness! You look so adorable!" He exclaimed.

Alyssa giggled and lightly stomped her feet excitedly.

"Now, let's get ready. We've been invited to a party." Said Damon as he walked down the stairs with Alyssa in his arms.

Stefan was already in the living room, sipping from a blood bag. Alyssa saw the bag and gasped.

"What dat?" Alyssa asked Damon with curious eyes.

Stefan scrambled around to hide the blood bag, realizing he was caught drinking blood and smiled.

"Nothing! It's just a special juice pouch made for grown-ups!" Damon replied in a hurry.

"Oh, okie. I try it?" She asked.

"No, no, no, sweetie. That's not for little ones like you. I will go get you some juice, okay?"

"Okie."

Damon took her to the kitchen and grabbed her empty sippy cup, and filled it with ice and apple juice.

Stefan sneakily drank the rest of his blood bag and threw it away in the trash bin in the basement.

Alyssa ran toward the front door and jumped up and down in excitement.

"Man, you seem to have a lot of energy." Said Stefan.

"Outside?" She asked.

"Not yet. The Lockwoods are still decorating and getting everything ready."

She nodded and ran back to the couch.

"No running in the house. We told you that already." Stefan said.

This time, Alyssa started to get a bit grumpy. She crossed her arms and pouted.

"What's the matter, princess?" Damon asked as he approached her with the sippy cup in his hand.

"I wanna go outside!" She said while still pouting.

"Well, try to drink some of your juice first, then we'll go." Damon said reassuringly.

"Okie. Tank you." She said before drinking the juice.

"I'll go start up the car." Damon said before leaving the mansion.

Stefan sat on the couch and looked over at Alyssa. "Are you enjoying your juice?"

"Mhmm." She replied while already halfway done with it.

"You should slow down a bit, or else you'll get a tummyache." He warned her.

She stopped drinking it and took a breath. "Okie. I bring stuffie?" She asked him.

"Hmmm. Only for the car ride, okay?"

"Okie. Car ride stuffie."

"Are you hungry?" He asked her.

"Yah!" She said loudly.

"What would you like to eat?"

"Toast!"

"Alright." Stefan went into the kitchen to make her some toast with strawberry jam, and she happily ate it at the dining room table.
