AN: 'Kaay I love Vampire Diaries and have had this idea floating in my head from sometime. Don't flame, it's an AU fic.


Chapter One: Elena POV


"Elena what are you doing in there?" Jeremy called through the bathroom door.

"I'll be out in a minute." I called back. I checked the clock, 2 minutes. I sighed and looked at the test: Positive. No way could I be pregnant, surely it must be wrong. Stefan told me vampires couldn't have children, and he is the only person I've slept with.

"Elena!" Jeremy shouted.

"Okay." I put the test in the laundry basket temporarily, and opened the door for Jeremy. "Happy?" I muttered.

"Very." He smiled, slamming the door.

I walked to my room, shut the door and sat on my bed. I had to tell Stefan, but how? He was under the impression that vampires couldn't have children, he'd think I've cheated on him. My hands fell involuntarily to my stomach. What did having a baby that was half vampire mean? I was so caught up in my thoughts I didn't notice Bonnie stood at my door,

"Elena, you coming?" She asked, looking at me weirdly.

"Uh... yeah." I stuttered with shock. I followed her to her car, and she turned to me. "What?" I asked.

"I don't know what it is, you seem... different."

"I do?"

"It's probably just me." She shrugged, turned the keys in the igniton and heading off to school

We parked next to Stefan's car. I got out and saw him sat on a picnic bench, it made my stomach churn. I walked over to him and tapped his shoulder, "Hey." He smiled, kissing me passionately. My stomach churned even more.

"Excuse me!" I said as I ran to the bathroom with my hands firmly over my mouth. I reached it in time, throwing up violently. Afterwards I flushed it and opened the door to find Caroline staring worriedly at me.

"Are you alright, Elena?" She asked, slipping her brush back into her bag.

"Yeah, just something I ate." I told her, cupping some water and washing my mouth out. She looked unsure, but she bought it.

I left the bathroom to be met by Bonnie and Stefan, looking concerned. "Are you okay?" He asked.

"Fine, just something I ate." I told him, glancing at a no-so-convinced-looking Bonnie.

"Can I talk to you Elena," She asked with a fake grin, "alone." She added looking at Stefan, he held his hands up defensively. She dragged me back into the bathroom, checking all the cubicles to see if anyone else was in. There wasn't so she turned to me, "Okay I'm not accusing and if you're not, that's fine." She said.

"Go on."

"Are you..." She checked the cubicles again, "... pregnant?" She whispered.

I looked at her with fake disbelief, but sighed. "Don't tell Stefan." I whispered.

"What are you going to do?"

"I'm keeping it, if that's what you mean."

"I mean about Stefan, he's bound to notice a bump eventually." She said, patting my stomach.

"I have to find the right time." I sighed, pushing her hands from my stomach.

"I'm so happy for you." She grinned, clasping her hands together.

We left the bathroom to find Stefan leaning against the lockers, I smiled and walked up to him. "Everything alright?" He asked me. I looked at Bonnie who turned to talk to Caroline.

"Yeah, absolutely." I smiled, he smiled back as we walked to our first class.

...

Bonnie drove me home, luckily I was the first one home so I had time to get rid of the pregnancy test. I ran to the bathroom but heard Jeremy coming upstairs, so I raced into my room. I was going to tell Stefan tonight, when I went over to his place. I was going to tell him straight, I hadn't cheated, it was most certainly his child. But Jeremy unexpectedly burst into my room,

"Hey Elena, you okay?" He asked.

"Yeah. Why?" I asked.

"I heard Caroline talking to Matt about you throwing up this morning at school."

"Oh."

"So are you okay?" He repeated.

"I'm fine, just something I ate." I lied, he smiled and left the room.

I sighed and picked up my cell, I was telling him now. I went downstairs and out to my car, and set off to Stefan's. I felt so nervous about his reaction, and Damon's for that matter. Damon as an uncle, and Stefan as a father. It wasn't hard to imagine, just weird. I arrived finally, my stomach churning again, it wasn't just the nerves doing that.

I opened the door to find Damon slumped on the couch flicking through TV channels. I coughed to his attention, "Ah Elena, Stefan isn't back yet."

"Oh," My stomach flipped as I felt sick again, "can I use your bathroom?"

"Sure-" I was already halfway up the stairs when he answered. I threw up violently like this morning. I heard Damon knocking on the door, "Elena?"

I flushed the toliet, "I'm fine... Damon." I opened the door, "Really."

"Stefan's back."

I went downstairs to greet him, we kissed passionately just to annoy Damon. "How are you feeling?"

"Um... that's kind of what I wanted to talk to you about." I said, biting my lip. I saw Damon sit the arm of the couch, looking curious.

"What is it? Are you sick?" He put his hands on my shoulders.

"Uh... yes and no?" I answered.

"What is it?" He was worried now.

"I'm..." I looked Stefan straight in the eyes "... pregnant." His eyes widened with shock as his hands dropped from my shoulders.

"You're what?" He asked.

"Wow... awkward turtle." Damon said.

I ignored him, "I'm pregnant." I repeated.

"B-But I... we... vampires can't have children." He was confused. "Are you sure?"

"Of course." I whispered.

He put his hand on his forehead, "Pregnant, Elena?" He sounded shocked now. "I mean... have you, you haven't ch-"

"I haven't cheated on you, I would never do that. This baby is yours, Stefan." I said, he and Damon flinched at the word 'baby'.

"I... I-" He put his head down, "I need to think." He said walking out the front door.

I was left stood staring at the open door. Was he happy? Angry? I felt Damon standing next to me, "He'll come around, he always does."

"He's capable of anything Damon, you of all people should know that." I whispered, my hands on my stomach again.
