Stefan Salvatore & Maya Gilbert ~ The Vampire Diaries

Smoke & Fire

Damon and I are moving into a new place, not to far away from the Boarding House. We thought it was about time we took that step, we obviously had to stay close because Stefanie.

The first few nights were perfect, just absolutely amazing! Then, one of those perfectly amazing nights turned into a nightmare.

"I love you" I whisper, my head on his chest. "I love you too" He whispers back, kissing the top of my head. "This is perfect, it's everything I've always wanted" "Good, I'm glad I make you happy" I lean up on my hand.

"You do, very much" We kiss and it turns passionate as I climb on top of him. "I love you, Maya" I smile and kiss him, ripping off his shirt. He kisses down my stomach as he rips my shirt.

My phone starts ringing, but I ignore it not thinking anything of it, when Damon's goes off next we ignore it not even hearing it.

"Oh Damon!" "Maya, fuck" "Damon?" I question, he looks at me with his eyebrows furrowed. "We have to go now!" Stefan appears out of nowhere and says.

"No! N.. no, St-tef... I have to get St-tefanie!" "It's to late, you have to get out of here or you'll die" "No I'm leaving without our daughter" "Our daughters dead! She wouldn't want you to die too!" "No, no, no! No she's not!"

They rushed me out just as the house collapsed on itself. "Nooo!" I scream, crying. Damon has to hold me back as I tried to reach out for my baby girl who was now buried underneath wood, ashes, etc. my baby is gone.

"No, Damon let me go!" "Maya" Stefan says, standing in front of me. "Our baby girl is gone" I say and collapsed on the floor in tears. "It's all my fault!" 

I was sobbing in Stefan's arms, who- he himself- had tears streaming down his face. "It's not, listen it's not your fault at all" "I shouldn't have tried to live a normal life, Stefan... I'm so sorry I killed our baby!" I sob.

Damon
"I... I killed our baby! I'm so sorry Stefan I'm so sorry!" She sobs in his arms. "Sh, it's ok, it's not your fault" He whispers, rubbing her back and holding her against him.

"I'm sorry Stefan, I'm sorry... she's... oh God... our baby!" She sobs, starting to hyperventilate. "Hey, look at me" She looks at him, tears streaming down her face and barely with it.

"This is not your fault, do you understand me? Stefanie is in a better place, somewhere that she doesn't have to have people worrying about anyone taking her for some kind of revenge. It is not your fault" I see her nod and start sobbing again.

She eventually cried herself to sleep, which is when we brought her back to the Boarding House and laid her down in my old bed... well my bed.

I lay down next to her and she starts to stir. "Sh, everything's ok" She nods, cuddles up with me and goes back to sleep.

1:30a.m.
I was fast asleep with Maya's head on my chest when I wake up to her screaming and crying in her sleep. I woke up with a startle that's for sure, it sounded like someone was killing her. Turns out, it was the killing of her and Stefan's baby replaying through her mind again.

Stefan ran in and we looked at each other with sympathy, she just lost her baby girl. "I'm sorry brother" "Thank you, brother"
