I don't Believe In Monsters

Chapter 35

Alaric's POV

"Careful, dont fall Lena." Damon says supporting Elena's arms as we walk up the stairs of the Mikaelson place in Mystic falls. We are finishing packing today and are leaving tomorrow.

We all have some stuff left here. Damon has not let go of Elena once since she has a belly bump now. Its almost like he thinks it going to bust.

"Damon I'm a month pregnant Im not going into labor." She says with a grin across her face.

"Yeah well you'll be thankful when you can't see your feet and don't know where there leading you." He smiles back smartly.

I never thought that I would be a grandpa at 32. Thats weird to think about. But I couldnt be more excited.

We walk into the house and go to our old rooms and start packing the rest of our things.

Damon's POV

Elena and I speed up to our room and start packing things. I get a box from the side of the room and put it on the bed. I go to my dresser and grab four bottles of bourbon and place them gently in the box. There's more where that comes from.

I open my sock drawer and pull out two more. Place them in the box. I rush to the nightstand and there is five more bottles of bourbon, plus a bit of vodka. Cant forget the tequila. I place them all in the box and glance at Elena who is staring at me like I just kicked a puppy.

"Damon seriously? I just watched you put thirteen bottles of alcohol in a box. You seriously have a problem." She says staring at me..

"Yeah well I'm the best problem you ever had." I smirk closing the box.

"Touche Salvatore. Touche." She says folding a piece of clothing.

Twenty minutes later we are finished and Elena sighs.

"Im going to miss this room." She smiling slightly.

"I am to. Its the room mini you or me was created in." I smirk. She rolls her eyes.

"One last kiss. One last kiss in this house." Elena says.

I walk over to her and cup my hands around her beautiful face and kiss her. This lasts for a few.

"Ur mm.." Ric coughs in the hallway.

"Right then let's go." Elena pulls away blushing.

5 minutes later

Alaric, Elena, and I walk in the parking lot heading to the car.

I notice a box in Alaric's hand and automatically know what it is.

"Bourbon box buddy?" I ask.

"You know it." Alaric laughs.

"See Elena? Grandpa Ric knows whats up?!" I laugh. Elena tries to shake her head but ends up laughing.

"Oh God, please don't call me that." Alaric smiles.

We pack all of the things into the car and get in. We drive to my house. We have a long drive tomorrow.

Three hours later

I lay on my bed waiting for Lena to get out of the shower.

How am I so lucky? How did I get someone so beautiful? How am I going to be a father now? I didnt even think that was physically possible. Im so happy.

Elena walks out in her underwear and a black shirt of mine. Shes so gorgeous.

She runs over and lands on the bed and kisses me. "I love you." She smiles tiredly.

"I love you too baby. Goodnight." I say and kiss her.

She lays with her back towards me and I wrap my arm around her swollen stomach. What a life.
