Ten Years Later

Chapter 3:

6:30 am

"Why are we up sooo damn early?" a sleepy Damon asked seeing as the whole gang was at the airport on the way to their hometown, 2 days later.

"Because this flight is 5 hrs and is the last one until 7 tonight." Meredith said in the same tone as Damon, as she laid her head on Matt's shoulder.

Flight 23A to, Albuquerque, New Mexico is now boarding. Passengers, please start boarding.

"That's us, come on babe. Maybe on the plane we can get some sleep." Stefan said as he helped Elena who was carrying Vanessa and he carried Tyler on the plane.

3 hours later

"Hey Grayson, ready to go shoot some hoops?" Zach asked his friend since High School.

"Yeah hold on, babe I'll be home later." Grayson said to his wife, Miranda.

"Okay have fun you two." Miranda told her husband before she kissed him and left.

Then she went back into her kitchen where Katherine, Stefan's mother and Zach's wife also Miranda's friend was.

"I swear those two act just like the kids did." Katherine said as her and Miranda laughed.

"Speaking of the kids, have you talked to Elena?" Katherine asked.

"Yeah she told me that the kids are doing fine as is everyone else." Miranda said thinking of the last time she talked to her daughter.

Now every since the kids all ran off, the fathers have fixed their problems. The only thing is that they hope and pray that they will see their kids again. The thing that they don't know is that the mothers have been talking to the kids for the past 10 years and know everything, unlike them. After a year the kids decided to call and tell their mothers that they were okay and where they were. The only thing was that they made them promise not to tell their fathers where they were. Even after the mothers heard everything they decided it was best not to tell. They only time they saw the kids was in pictures they sent and Katherine and Miranda were at Stefan and Elena wedding as Klaus, Caroline, Damon and Bonnie's mothers were at theirs. When they had to go they would tell Zach and Grayson that they had to go on a business trip and would come back the day after the wedding. Every day the fathers wish and pray that their kids would come back just so they could apologize for what they put them through. Once they found the letter that all the kids wrote it tore them to pieces knowing that they were the reason they left. But boy are they in for a surprise.
