"Freya I was wondering if I could get your thought on something" Kol said not sure how to say it.
"Sounds serious, everything alright with Elena?" she asked a little worried.
"It's not serious and things are really good with her. For some reason this morning while I was making her breakfast, I had a fleeting thought of a child...hers and mine. Guess I found it strange considering I accepted a long time ago that I would never have children" he said looking out the window.
"What you're feeling is normal, you finally love someone enough to want to give them everything. What the two of you have, some people can only dream of. Not being able to have a child won't change that. I've seen the way she looks at you when you're not looking and vice versa. Elena is the best thing that has ever happened to you in a really long time" she said with a smile.
"She is the best thing that has happened. She's my life. I'm just worried that she will realize what she will be missing later on and resent me for it" Kol said looking out the window rubbing the back of his neck.
"She loves you, and I know she won't resent you. Kol...she came to you with her eyes wide open knowing what you are and that didn't even scare her off. But if it's bothering you that much then talk to her before you two get married not after" Freya suggested.
"I will. Now lets go do something fun" Kol said.
"These are beautiful Bonnie. Where did you find them?" Elena asked as she run her fingers over the silky flowers that would adorn the pews.
"I made them" Bonnie said happily.
"They're gorgeous and thank you. These must have taken you hours to make" she said.
"Well I used a little magic, but not a lot. I wanted them to be special for your big day" she said smiling.
"How much more is there to do for the decorations?" Elena asked.
"Caroline texted me this morning and said she was coming down this weekend with the vases she found and the flowers to go in the vases were pre-ordered by your future brother-in-law Klaus which are to arrive the morning of the wedding. Don't worry Caroline texted him which ones to order and before I forget did you get our flowers ordered for us and the guys?" Bonnie said.
"Sounds like everything is coming along smoothly, and yes I did get them ordered" Elena said smiling.
"Hard to believe at the end of next month your going to be a married woman" Bonnie said a little teary-eyed.
"Hey, we promised no tears for a happy occasion" Elena said smiling.
"That we did. Let's go eat, all this talk of the wedding has made me hungry" Bonnie said giggling.
Elena got home before Kol and set about making dinner. She sat at the kitchen counter thinking about what the future held. Dreams of becoming a mom ended the moment she fell in love with a vampire, yet she had no regrets. She couldn't imagine what life would be like without Kol, he was her everything. With a smile on her face she got plates and forks set out on the dining room table and finished up dinner when she heard the front door open and his voice.
"Elena? I'm home" Kol said from the entryway.
"I'm in the kitchen" she called out to him.
"Did you have fun with Bonnie today?" he asked as he walked up behind her and slid his arms around her waist, breathing in the scent of her hair.
"I did. How did your day go?" she asked him as he released her so she could finish dinner.
"It went good actually" Kol said.
"Then why the look on your face if it went good?" she asked looking at him.
"Well this morning while I was making you breakfast I had a thought about you and me with a child. Before you say anything let me finish, granted I found that strange considering..anyway I asked Freya her thoughts on it and she told me what I was feeling was normal because I love you and want to give you everything. The one thing I can't is a child and I just don't want you to have any regrets being with me" he said shifting his weight from one foot to the other.
"Kol Mikaelson, I love you and I love that you want to give me everything. I knew what I was getting into with you and I have no second thoughts about us. Besides once we're married I want you to turn me so we can have forever" she said watching his expression as to what she just said.
"I can do forever" Kol said with a smirk, loving her even more than he thought possible.
Later that night the moon was shining through the bedroom window Kol watched Elena sleep. The moon seemed to make her hair glisten and her skin flawless, pushing a strand of hair away from her face, he gently brushed her cheek with his fingertips. He didn't know if he would ever get over the fact that she was his and next month she would have his name, and with that thought he drifted off to sleep with a smile on his face.
