Everyone was silent after Melrose had revealed the truth, about why she and Damarion came to Mystic Falls, they went into hiding, from the Original; Niklaus Mikaelson.

The man they had to deal with in his sudden arrival to the town, who left finally relieving the stress the town went under.

Melrose noted the tension build up and she knew the reason-Niklaus was authoritative, and controlling, and rules broken, meant punishment.

"That's pretty much our story-I befriended an Original vampire, and got myself and son dragged into there circle. For hundreds of years, Elijah tried to get us our freedom, and he finally did. He was the one who gave us the chance" Melrose admitted and Damon did not like the idea of how she spoke about Elijah, what was their relationship towards each other?

Melrose and Damon, had to talk with each other, they both knew it, the miscommunication, the lies, and the betrayal?

What will happen, when they try and sit down, will there be yelling? Tears? Laughter?

"and to think, that they couldn't have found a way into our lives again" Stefan sighed leaning forward on his hand.

"You don't have to get involved-

"Your family, despite the situation Mel" Stefan cut Melrose off who looked at him then to Damarion, and then to Damon who was looking down to his hands that was clasped on his legs.

"I'll take the Gilberts home, it's getting late" Melrose said as she stood up, Elena looked like she was going to retort but Damarion let out a sigh

"Don't bother, Mum likes to dote on people, she won't take no for an answer" Melrose shot a look to her son as he chuckled.

Damon peered up to the Fisher's and he was not sure, how to take in everything he just learned, Damarion was his son, his own name was in his.

Melrose, despite the situation, used the name he and her, had made when they talked about having kids.

To think, it was hundreds of years ago, and things didn't go as plan, was fate going to be fair this time? Or was it going to play its cruel games?

Melrose walked behind the three teenagers as Stefan followed behind," Make sure to not be a stranger Mel, we still have a lot to catch up on"

Melrose chuckled as she turned around giving the young Salvatore a hug," You have my word Stef"

She pulled back and felt the Older Salvatore near and she and exhaled not wanting to face him, but Melrose knew that considering the situation, he was still the father of Damarion.

He was his family, that he couldn't have since becoming a vampire, she knew how much he wanted children, and she couldn't take that chance away from him.

"I won't allow you not to see your son and if you truly believe he is yours that is. You will have to convince him to be a part of his life Damon, if you want to be" Melrose said looking into his eyes and felt her chest tighten, she knew, no matter how long, she was still in love with him.
