Vampire Diaries (with a twist) [COMPLETE]

Family ties (part 2)

Maria walks in and Stefan can tell she's been crying
Stefan:Didn't go so well?
Maria shakes her head and hugs him tightly
He kisses her head and holds her
Stefan:I'm sorry
Maria:you have nothing to be sorry about,you've been so good to me (kisses him)
Stefan:I love you
Maria:I love you too...
Stefan:how bad was it?
Maria:not as bad as I thought but it's over now,he knows and I think I'm ready to tell everyone else
Stefan:of course (kisses her again) it's going to be fine
Maria:I know... I just don't know if I can do this anymore
Stefan:you're strong
Maria nods and walks into the lounge where everyone is sitting and talking
She proceeds to tell them everything and everyone is understanding but Victoria is upset

Maria is outside with Joshua and Piper
Victoria:I'm just hurt that you couldn't trust me enough to tell me,you tell me everything
Maria:Vicky this isn't even about you okay? I trust you yeah,more than anything in this world but I had to know for sure...
Victoria:(hugs her) how are you going to explain this to Josh?
Maria:we have already
Victoria nods and hugs Maria again
Elena:(walking out) why were you so afraid to tell us? We're your family
Maria:I had to sent my daughter away for nearly 10 years because of all the enemies that Niklaus and I made..I couldn't bare to lose another child.. I just couldn't (looks at Joshua and Piper) and no matter what,my children come first
Elena:of course,I'm sorry,we could've helped sooner
Maria:no this isn't anyone's fault.. As a mother,I only want to protect my children... Niklaus can hate me if he sees it fit but Joshua will know his father and I will not keep this from anyone (looks at Elena then at Victoria) not anymore

Piper:Mommy look
Piper and Joshua are learning to vamp and now Joshua has learnt to climb a tree
Maria:Joshy come down from there
Joshua giggles and shakes his head
Piper:come down please?
Joshua:no way (laughs)
Elena and Victoria laugh
Maria:mommy has candy
Joshua:Candy?
Maria nods
Joshua:is it from a stranger?
Maria:no way
Joshua thinks for a second and then jumps down into Maria's arms
Piper:good job Joshy
Joshua:good job Pipa
They all laugh

Rebekah:she's great with them (smiles)
Kol:she sure is yeah..
Becca:how's Klaus?
Rebekah:Elijah says he's in his moods again,nothing Marcel and Elijah can't handle
Becca:he'll come around...
Rebekah:of course,he loves Maria... (Smiles)
Kol:I'm happy for him.. 3 children? Not bad brother
They laugh

Elijah:Look I don't care about your anger issues,we all have them Niklaus
Marcel:that is your son... your very own... You have 3 children.. 2 from the woman you've loved since she was born.. 1 from an equally incredible woman...
Elijah:that is your son and you will stop this act instantly
Marcel looks at Elijah and Klaus finally opens his door
Klaus:I've heard enough thank you and I know okay?
Marcel and Elijah nod
Klaus walks ahead
Elijah:and where are you off to?
Klaus:Mystic falls,you coming?
Marcel:you go ahead,I'll help them finish up renovations
Klaus:good,have them start making my sons room
Elijah:what?
Klaus:I want my son to live with me
Elijah:you're not taking him away from her!
Klaus:that was never my intention..she's most welcome to live here with us after she's learnt her lesson
Marcel:her lesson?
Klaus:only way I know how... I'll make her feel guilty Marcellus and then all will be renewed
Elijah shakes his head
Marcel:nice..(shakes his head and walks off)
Klaus:well?
Elijah:yes I'm coming with you.. just so you and Maria don't try to kill each other
Marcel:(turns to look at Klaus) again
Klaus laughs

Stefan:hungry?
Maria:Yes thank you (takes the pasta from him)
Stefan:(smiles) how are you feeling?
Maria:I've never been better
Stefan:(kisses her forehead) I'll see you later,Damon and I are heading out for a while
Maria nods and eats

Damon:There is someone who could help locate Katherine's whereabouts
Isaiah:Beth?
Damon nods
Stefan:okay....where are we going to find Bethany?
Nevio:Silas knows where she is
Stefan:there's no way I'm getting help from that psychopath
Nevio:you want to get rid of Katherine don't you?
Stefan:can't we just look for Katherine ourselves?
Isaiah:I like the Silas plan better
Stefan:fine...
Damon:I'll call Silas

There's a knock at the door and Piper goes to open it
Piper:Hi daddy (kisses his cheek)
Klaus:Hi.. is mommy home?
Piper:yes she's making dinner
Klaus:where's Joshua?
Piper:he's in front of the fire place
When Klaus walks in he sees Maria feeding Joshua and the house smells good
Maria:is that good?
Joshua:hmmmm
Maria:mommy has to finish cook love
Klaus clears his throat
Maria looks up and sees him
He walks over to Joshua and kneels down
Klaus:Hi buddy
Joshua:Daddy (holds his cheek)
Klaus almost can't contain his tears
Maria looks at them and smiles and then gets up to go finish cook
Klaus:just to be clear
Maria looks back at him
Klaus:I'm doing this for my son
Maria:He's my son too....
Klaus:whatever
Maria shakes her head and walks into the kitchen
Joshua:don't fight
Maria frowns and continues
Klaus:I have a gift for you..
He hands Joshua a bunch of candy
Joshua:thank you
Maria:Josh.. not too much candy before bed okay?
Joshua nods and eats a sweet
Klaus:I have a surprise for you
Piper:what is it?
Klaus:Uncle Marcel is helping them renovate your room.. and then they'll start on Joshua's room
Maria:what?
Klaus:oh don't look so shocked love,I want my children with me
Maria:you are not taking them away from me!
Klaus:I wasn't going to...
Maria:oh?
Klaus:you're welcome to move in anytime
Maria:what? Are you mad?
Klaus:I believe so
Maria:I'm not staying with you Niklaus,we'd kill each other
Klaus:you don't have much choice..
Maria:I do... I am not staying in your house.. I'm no prisoner
Klaus:you're lucky I'm not taking you away by chains and keeping you in New Orleans with me right now
Maria throws a glass at him
Klaus:easy! You'll frighten our children
Victoria:(walking in) hmm smells good in here.. oh.. What's going on?
Joshua:mommy and daddy are fighting
Victoria:Really?
Maria sighs and continues cooking
Klaus:we'll discuss this further..(walks out)
Maria:ah!
Victoria:what is it?
Maria:long story...
Victoria:he wants you to move in?
Maria nods
Victoria:I had a feeling
Maria shakes her head and puts her head in her hands
Victoria:I think you should.. especially since you're helping with his "empire"
They laugh
Maria:we'll see....
