Disclaimer: I own nothing, sadly.

AN: Second story ever, I know this has been done many, many times, but I couldn't get this one scene to stop playing in my head. I got this idea from the books. Based on the song Good Riddance(Time Of Your Life), by Green Day. That song is EPIC. So it starts out with a little SE but only because its necessary, after that its all DE. So this is based after they kill Klaus. But the dagger was pulled out of Elijah and he took off. Elena just graduated and Jenna got the full story. R&R XD

"What the hell is a Kitsune?" I ask him questioningly.

"They're supernatural creatures, and kind of like werewolves." He tells me. "They can appear human but most of the time are in the form of a fox. The more tails a Kitsune has, the more powerful they are. They're very rare, I've only come across two and Damon has never even seen one. I'm pretty sure they originated from Japan sometime in the 1400's. They can perform magic like witches, shape-shift like werewolves, and compel like vampires."

"They sound fictional and scary." I tell him.

"So do vampires." He replies.

"True. So you were friends with this Kitsune?"

"Yes. His name was Ebisu. Meaning God of luck. Ironic, I know." He says with a smile.

"So when you saved his life back in 1903, he promised you one favor of your choosing?"

"Yes, and this is the good part." He says, smile growing bigger on his face. "Since Kitsunes can perform magic even more powerful than witches, I asked him for something extremely rare"

"And?"

"And he did it. I received the package in the mail a week ago, but I haven't opened it. I wanted you to be here."

"Well where is this package? Lets open it." I tell him, getting impatient.

He gets up and pulls something down from the top of his closet. He carries it back to the bed, sitting down beside me. He sits there, staring at the package, not sure what to do with it.

"Open it already" I tell him, smiling. He tears the paper off to reveal a blue box. He lifts the lid, and sitting inside is a rose. Not just any rose, a black rose.

"It's beautiful" I tell him. "But what do we do with it?"

"I don't know" He replies. He reaches down and picks up the rose, bringing it to his nose. He inhales deeply and sighs, a smile forming on his face.

"What does it smell like?" I ask him.

"I don't know how to describe it. It's like..." Stefan breaks off mid sentence, grabbing his throat and coughing violently.

"Stefan, whats wrong?" I ask, patting him on the back. He doesn't stop coughing, he falls back onto the floor with a thud.

"Stefan" I cry. Sitting on the floor beside him. I pull out my phone and call Damon. Please pick up, please pick up. He answers on the first ring.

"Why hello Elena. What can I do for you today?" He asks, I can practically see the smirk on his face.

"Damon, its Stefan. Something's wrong, I don't know what to do. Come home ASAP." I tell him quickly, hanging up and looking back to Stefan. The coughing had stopped and he'd gone still.

"Stefan" I say, shaking him. "Come on, get up, Stefan" I cry.

His eyes open wide and he inhales a deep breath. I bend down, hugging his chest, thanking god that I can feel his heart beating. Wait, what?

"I thought I'd lost you" I tell him, the tears streaming down my face.

He inhales again, pushing me away and clutching at his chest. I look at him, hurt on my face, until I see he's trying to breathe. I help him and he finally manages it after a few minutes.

I look at him in wonder and he puts his hand over his heart.

"I'm human." He says in wonder, a giant smile forming on his face. I smile in return, hugging him like my life depends on it. He pulls me back, then leans forward to kiss me. Well, one thing leads to another and soon we were both exhausted, me lying on his chest, him playing with my hair.

2 Months Later.

Stefan had been human for almost 2 months now. It had been the best 2 months of my life. It took everyone a couple weeks to get used to the human version of him. Stefan was thrilled with the new him and so was I.

Last week while I was in the kitchen at the boarding house, helping him make breakfast, I felt my stomach stir. Before Stefan could get a word out I was running to the bathroom and emptying the contents of my stomach. Stefan came in behind me and held my hair back. I was embarrassed at first but that quickly subsided when I realized my stomach wasn't finished. When I was done I washed my mouth out and Stefan helped me walk to the couch so I could lie down. He was looking at me with a strange expression on his face.

Two weeks later and I was still randomly getting sick. Stefan decided it was time for a trip to the doctors office. Stefan agreed to wait in the waiting room, like I asked. An hour later and I was finished with my check up. I walked back into the waiting room to see Stefan staring at the ground with a worried expression on his face. I walked up to him and pulled him into a standing position, I wrapped my arms around his neck and put my lips at his ear.

"Your going to be a father" I whisper to him.

He steps back to look at me in wonder. A giant smile appears on his face and he pulls me into a hug.

One Week Later.

We were on our way to Jenna's house. I hadn't seen her since I moved into the boarding house two weeks ago. Stefan wanted to tell everyone about the baby ASAP. I on the other hand wanted to keep it our secret for now. He had let me keep it our secret for a week. Now it was time to spill the beans. We pulled into the driveway and Stefan climbed out and opened my door. I grab his hand while we wait outside the front door. Jenna answers and a big smile spreads across her face.

"I thought you two had fallen off the edge of the earth" She says after hugging us both.

We follow her to the kitchen where Ric is making dinner while Jeremy watches. they turn around and wave to both of us. During dinner, Stefan squeezes my hand, meaning he wants to tell them now.

"Jenna, Ric, Jeremy, there's something we need to tell all of you." Stefan says with a smile. They all look at me suspiciously. "Me and Elena are going to be parents."

Jeremy drops his fork along with his jaw. Alaric does the same. Jenna however doesn't seem effected much. She smiles at both of us, reassuringly.

"Congratulations" She says. Thank god she didn't try to lecture us. Jeremy and Alaric pull themselves together.

"So I'm going to be an uncle?" He asks.

"Yep, congrats uncle Jer" Stefan tells him.

Jeremy smiles and goes back to eating. Alaric is still silent. Finally his head comes up to stare the two of us in the eyes.

"Does Damon know?" He asks slowly. Of course he'd ask that, Damon is his friend.

"Not yet, no" Stefan tells him. Alaric shakes his head and sighs, standing up to clear the table.

"Good luck breaking the news to him" Alaric mumbles.

After everything is cleaned up we say our goodbyes and head home. When we get to the boarding house I see Damon's car in the driveway. My heart speeds up instantly. Stefan puts his arm around my shoulders and leads me inside. There Damon sits in his chair, glass of scotch in his hand.

"You didn't tell me." He says simply, staring into the fire. Damn it, Alaric.

"We were planning to, Damon." Stefan says, apologetically.

"Planning to my ass. You were going to wait as long as possible before uttering a word to me" He says coldly.

"That's not true Damon." I tell him, walking over to stand in front of him.

"How could you?" He asks. He looks up at me, tears in his eyes.

"Damon, I love Stefan. He's human, and it was only a matter of time before we started a family. You knew that." I say, begging him to understand. I can't stand seeing that much betrayal and pain in his eyes. He stands up and sits his glass down.

"I'm leaving" He says. In that moment I feel my world crashing down. Damon can't leave.

"Damon please don't go" I beg him, tears stinging my eyes. I blink them away, trying to stay calm.

"Goodbye Elena" He whispers, walking towards the door. I just stand there and watch him walk outside and climb in his car. I don't look away until his car fades into the distance.

I can almost hear my heart crack.
