Our New Life

Chapter 6

1975:

It's been twenty-five years since she chose to live with Damon, twenty years a long time. Now when she looks back, it feels like a few months, when she started to control her hunger, when she tried compelling people for fun just to practice with Damon. Damon didn't leave her side for once in those years. He kept looking for hope that could bring Katherine back. And she chose to help people and took part to make this world a better place to live. Not like her Steve but still, she was making it better somehow.

They were helping each other to achieve their goals. Sticking together, she was helping him find her, and Damon kind of became a good guy, just to help her for no other reasons.

In all those years they traveled to a lot of places, for work and for fun too. After becoming a vampire, y/n's changed completely. Now she thinks about her human self and her vampire self, she prefers this one. She became more confident, sexier, and more fun.

She wasn't scared of anything now. She was living a fearless life with Damon and Man! Damon's company was indeed fun.

Right now they were moving to New York, well because they didn't have any other place to go, New York was quite fun and y/n also wanted to go there. After Steve's and Bucky's death she moved to Georgia and never went back. Going there brought a lot of memories and made her smile.

"Mom, what if nobody becomes my friend." The only reason she was sad was her friends. "Oh, honey. You will. I promise. Now c'mon daddy will drop you at your school." her mother said, kissing her.

"Why are you smiling huh?" Damon asked her. She sighed, her head on the car's window. "Nothing, just thinking about the time when I came to new york. The time when making friends was the only biggest problem I had." Damon chuckled and with that, they started a life in New York.

The next was pretty exciting for y/n. Damon went to meet a friend of his, he also asked her to go with him but she denied it. She had to visit all those places where she grew up.

She went to Brooklyn, in that alley where she grew up with her two friends. Everything got changed of course but still can see herself with those two boys.

"Goodbye! Be safe kids." her mother said waving at them. They were going to school together. She holds Steve's hand making that little boy blush.

She walked towards the diner where they used to hang out almost every evening. Where she used to go on double dates with bucky and Steve, feeling extra but Steve used to ask her so she had to.

"Steve this is Sally, Sally this is Steve, your date and this is y/n our best friend." Bucky introduced them to Steve and his dates. She could see that Sally was looking upside down at Steve, making him feel uncomfortable.

After a few hours, Sally left Steve, no matter how many times that would happen, it always makes y/n angry.

She went to Steve and sat down where Sally was a few minutes ago. She filled her plate with food and started to eat. She could feel Steve's eyes on her. y/n looked up at him "what? Eat!" she said trying to sound angry but when he gave her that sweetest smile that she loved the most, she couldn't help but smile in return.

After visiting all the old places, she wanted to go to Steve's grave but there was nothing because they didn't find his body. So she went to the statue they made in his honor, well in Captain America's honor. She was looking at the statue when someone placed their hand on her shoulder. She turned around to find a man in his late 50s with a kid. "I'm sorry to bother you, ma'am. But I think I've seen you somewhere" he said hesitantly. "Um. I don't think I know you, sir," she replied politely. "What's your name if you don't mind me asking." "my name is y/f/n"

He gasped at that and the next question made her gasp "did you know Steve Rogers?" she looked around to see if someone was looking or not. Making sure no one was looking at them she asked "who are you?" that man smiled "I'm Howard Stark, the owner of Stark Industries. And this is my son Anthony Stark" which made her chuckle. She remembered Howard Stark the last time she went somewhere with Steve and Bucky was his exhibition. "Howard stark? Hmm, I think I've heard that name somewhere." she said smiling "how do you think you know me Mr stark." she asked him "Well, a friend of mine showed me a picture once of a beautiful woman whom he loved the most, who coincidentally looks just like you." he said, making her chuckle. "Well, you have quite an amazing memory." and then she looked into his eyes, compelling him "you don't remember that photo Steve showed you, you know nothing about Steve's love life," she said and he nodded. She pulled back and smiled at him "so what you do y/n" "by profession I'm a doctor but I can pretty much do anything." she said being cocky. That's what she does, act cocky after being a vampire.

"That's amazing, I kinda need a multi-tasker for help." he chuckled.

And from that day she got appointed by Howard Stark not officially more as a friend, whenever he needed help she was there, as a lifesaver. She wanted to join Shield but didn't because of who she was. Only a few people know her.

A few years passed and she was still in New York, working with Stark. Damon was in New York too, working with some of his buddies.

She was in Stark's house for dinner. During those years, working with Stark. She made friends with his wife and his little son.

"Do you age y/n, like ever," Maria asked, making her laugh? "I mean look at your face, nothing has changed since the day I saw you." "she is right y/n '' Howard also had to interrupt. "well...I use a lot of beauty products" they both laughed at that.

She noticed Tony wasn't eating his food. Nor was he talking with anyone. When the dinner was over, she went to tony. "What happened buddy? Why so angry?" she asked playfully.

At first, he didn't reply, making her frown. "I'm angry with dad" there came the reply. "Oh okay, what did he do? Tell me" "he is always busy, always talking about his work or that Captain America friend of his, he loves him" he grumbled. She laughed seeing that little boy being jealous of Steve. "oh, so you don't like Captain America?" "like? I hate him" she sighed. "Well, it's okay if you don't like someone you know. You can't like everyone all the time. But hating someone is not right, someone you don't know, hating someone is not cool." she told him nicely. "You know your dad always talks about you with me, how much he loves you. But I don't hate you. That even makes me love you more, you know. Always listening to your stories makes me love you more." she told him. "Dad always talks about me," he asked surprisingly. She nodded "always" then she mentioned him to come closer when he did "it's okay. I don't like a lot of people too but don't tell anyone." she whispered in his ear making him giggle.

With that, she left the Stark residence and went towards her house.....
