The Vampire Diaries

"Can we come stay with you? I don't think I can live here... All the memories..." Vanessa whispered.

A few minutes later Saffron came running out. "Ready!"

"Of course you all can, Ness, of course,"

---

Malvolio just glanced to Trinity.

"Are you sure it won't put you and mom out?"

"Of course it won't, don't be silly,"

Trinity gave a nod. "I am if you are"

"Can we bring Freckles daddy? He always likes it there."

Vanessa nodded, getting up and walking towards Leon. "Goodbye my love." She whispered, her voice thick with emotion as she pulled the throw rug up and pulled it over him after kissing him softly one last time.

Malvolio nodded in response to that.

---

(( Pheonix stop making it so I have feels! xD ))

Klaus got to his feet and waited by the front door for her.

"Give me a moment, I need to let Holly know first, so she can get the next flight home." Vanessa said thickly, heading upstairs. She came back down half an hour later with a small bag packed.

((I've already cried over this, it's your turn haha))

(( Really? I haven't cried yet haha.  I think the things I cry easiest is drama concerning Astrid and Adam, Astrid and Kol, Tatia and Klaus, Hope and Henrik and…. Uh… ))

Klaus just waited where he was in complete silence.

((It was during that big paragraph I wrote earlier, though I was so tempted to write "ill never let go jack" lmao))

Holly came down the stairs of the house she shared with her father in France, her phone broken in her hands where she'd crushed it unknowingly. She stood frozen at the bottom, letting the phone slip through her hand and land with a bang, staring blankly ahead even though there were shards of glass stuck into her palm.

---

Vanessa handed him the bag, headed over to Leon and gently took off his wedding ring kissing his hand before walking past her father and heading out the house.

Saffron smiled and called for her dog whom came running.

(( Ah, I nearly cried reading it. HAHA! You should of xD  I was tempted to have Astrid the one that dies and never came back but I think that'd emotionally murder me to the point I wouldn't be able to type replies because I love Kol and Astrid to bits, I really do ))

Klaus headed out after her silently.

---

"Holly?" Nate frowned when he came out of the living room and saw her, "What's wrong, what happened?"

---

Malvolio smiled

Holly's mouth moved a few times but no words came out, eventually she managed a "he's gone and they can't bring him back. Da- Leons gone and they can't bring him back." Before she completely shut down and started shaking.

---

Vanessa got into his car and put her feet up, curling up against the door.

---

((I love Ness and Leon though, so it killed me writing all that out))

"Where are we going to swim daddy?" She asked running around the grass with Freckles chasing her.

(( Kol and Astrid are my favourite, I think xD Haha. ))

Nate just frowned and with a small sigh took her hand, pulling the bits of glass from it before wrapping his arms around her into a tight hug. "Okay, Holly, okay." He whispered, not knowing what else to say.

---

Klaus got in and drove towards his home silently.

---

Malvolio just shrugged and glanced to Trinity.

Vanessa stayed as she was, trembling at the prospect of telling her youngest.

---

"I know you didn't like him but he was my dad too, he was all I had when you died, when mom died... And now he's gone." Holly whispered as tears rolled down her cheeks. "Killed by his own son."

"It's okay," Nate sighed, "You can be upset, Holly, don't worry. I understand." he replied, kissing the side of her head gently.

---

Klaus reached over to rest his hand on his daughters shoulder, rubbing her shoulder with his thumb soothingly.

"Any is fine with me really."

"The lake daddy! The one by the little waterfall?"

"We need to go home, I need to see mom, I - " Holly whispered, cutting herself off with a sob.

---

"How do I tell them daddy? I don't think I can do it."

"You'll find it from somewhere, manage to tell 'em somehow. I can't tell you how, Ness, just try and keep calm when you tell them, it'll scare them if you break down into tears half way through." Klaus advised.

---

"Sshh,"

---

"Okay," Malvolio nodded.

"I know you're not moms biggest fan after she left you again, but you were close before you got back together, she probably needs you too. Come with me? Don't make me go on my own?" Holly asked as she sobbed.

---

"I can't help crying..."

"I know it's hard," Klaus whispered, "You have to though, just be strong while your telling them. It's okay to cry with them but crying while telling them will just make it worse."

---

"Okay," Nate whispered.

Vanessa just gulped, not knowing how she'd manage.

---

"Thank you." Holly whispered before burying her face in his neck and sobbing.

"You'll do fine," He assured gently, "You don't know how to will now but when the moment comes you will."

---

"Don't thank me," Nate whispered, holding her close
