Damon's Little Princess

Chapter 7: Katherine

Alyssa woke up in the middle of the night, thinking she might have overslept. Instead of going back to sleep, she got up and left her room, walking down the hallway as quietly as she could.

Damon was suddenly alerted by the floor creaking and immediately got up from bed and opened his bedroom door, sleepily looking over at Alyssa.

"Hey, princess. What's wrong?" He asked softly.

She looked around and reached her hands up, silently begging him to pick her up.

"Aaaaaw! Sweetie! It's past 3 am. Why are you up so early?" He asked softly.

Alyssa shrugged. "Can't sleep."

Damon picked her up and took her back to her nursery, and picked up a book of fairy tales before sitting with her on the rocking chair.

"And the princess and the prince lived happily ever after." Damon read aloud, finishing the story before kissing her forehead and laying her back down in her bed. Before he left the room, she grabbed his arm and whimpered.

"Tell me what's the matter." He said sternly. "You're supposed to be in bed, and I don't wanna play any games at this hour."

"Leaking..." She replied softly.

"What's leaking?" He asked.

Her face turned red with embarrassment and hid her face in her pillow. Damon suddenly smirked.

"Oh, I see. Did you wet the bed? Is your diaper leaking?" He asked her with a cutesy voice.

She blushed even redder, and she squealed into her pillow. Damon chuckled and took her out of her bed and changed her diaper and her sheets. After she was tucked back into bed, he smiled at her but also gave her a stern warning.

"Bedtime now. I love you!" Damon said while blowing her a kiss and leaving the room.

Alyssa instantly fell asleep after Damon left the room and slept in almost all morning.

Damon came back to her room to wake her up at 8 in the morning, but he saw that she was still asleep in her bed. He smiled and closed the door gently and went downstairs to see Stefan drinking another glass of rabbit blood.

"Is she up yet?" Stefan asked.

"Nope. She's still sleeping like a baby." Damon replied.

"Good. I'm going out in a bit to see Elena. I'm taking her to the fair."

"Oh, well, good for you! I'm going to stay home and have a little tea party with my princess." Damon replied while drinking from a blood bag he stored in the back of the fridge.

Damon relaxed on the couch while Stefan left to hang out with Elena. Damon tuned on the TV and watched the Twilight movie. He laughed at how stupid the movie was to him.

After about 30 minutes, he checked the time, and it was 10:30. He sighed and was about to go wake Alyssa up, but she was already at the top of the stairs.

"Good morning, Ally. Did you sleep well?"

Alyssa slowly nodded.

"Let's go get you some breakfast." He said while picking her up.

Suddenly, Katherine burst in through the front door. Damon looked at her with wide eyes.

"Knock, knock." She said with a smirk, but her smirk suddenly faded when she looked around at all the baby stuff around her.

"What is this? What's going on?" She asked. She took a few steps forward and saw Damon at the bottom of the stairs holding Alyssa.

"I can explain." Said Damon.
