Deadly but Silent

"Genevieve?" Damon asks. I ignore him, and sit in the chair across from my brothers. "What's wrong?" Stefan asks. "Did Matt do something?!" Damon asks, jumping up. "No, Damon. Matt didn't do anything." I say. He sits back down, and they look at me confused. "What's wrong?" Stefan asks.

I take a deep breath, and look at them in the eyes. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry for everything! I'm sorry for being rude, for hurting you, for killing you, for ruining your lives, for ruining your relationships-" I'm cut off when two sets of arms wrap around me.

I keep apologizing as tears fall, and Damon lays my head on his chest. I start sobbing, and shaking, as I let in all the pain my brothers have caused me the past 153 years. Damon moves the hair out of my face, and shsh me. "It's okay, Genevieve. I've got you." He says.

I open my eyes, and see I'm in a bed. I slowly sit up, and hear movement. I look to my left and see Damon with a glass of blood and a glass of water. "You had a panic attack, and passed out for two days." He says. I nod, then gulp both glasses. He then hands me a blood bag, and I drink that as well.

"I'm sorry for everything I have ever done, Genevieve. I've missed you, and I hope you can forgive me." He says. I vamp speed to him, and hug him tightly. "Will you be my brother again?" I ask. "Of course, twini." He says, causing me to smile.

I hold my index finger out, and he smiles, then wraps his around mine. We then squeeze, and pull to each other. Then we clap opposite hands, and hit ankles. We finish our hand shake, and smile at each other. "It's been 147 years. I can't believe we still remember the handshake we made when we were seven." He says, making me smile.

I walk down the stairs, and Stefan looks at me. "Hey, your awake." He says, standing up. I smile, and vamp speed to hug him. "I'm so sorry!" He whispers. "I love you, Stefan!" I whisper to my little brother. "I love you to, Gracelyn." He says.

My phone rings, so I pull it from my pocket and see Matt calling.

Oh my gosh! Matt, I'm so sorry! I-
I know. Damon told me. It's okay. I'm just glad you made up with your brothers!
I feel so bad.
Don't. It's okay.
Do you wanna go on a date tonight?
Depends.
How about we go see a movie.
Actually, I've got a different idea. I'll pick you up at six. Where clothes that are okay to get dirty.
Okay. I'll see ya in two hours. I love you.
I love you to, Grace.

There's a buzz on the phone, and I smile. The world is finally giving me a happy ending. I have my brothers back, and I'm in love with Matt.
