TimeSkip and Graduation

Damon POV:

Hey guys nice to see you again last you heard from I was what 4 hahaha...good times but while you guys where away thirteen years have gone by, yea crazy right I'm seventeen now and thank god im graduating today don't get me wrong I loved highschool but for all the wrong reasons you see I was athletic as fuck due to being trained at a young age by my mom at the dojo so when I entered highschool I said fuck it and joined the football and basketball team which I was really good at it so naturally I was really popular with everyone even had a few girlfriends which made Selene mad for some reason had me confused for awhile but hey what are you gonna do but anyways yea did all that which was okay but after awhile it gets boring but I decided to continue sports to at least relieve alittle bit of my boredom.

During my junior year though I found something that really caught my interest; homicide detectives yea crazy right but just take a second and think about everything that goes into solving a murder or into finding a serial killer and tell me that doesn't sound like the most humbling yet difficult job in the world which I would fully enjoy doing, now how am I supposed to tell mom and Selene they will obviously fight me on this honestly the care a little too much about my well being especially Selene it kinda creeps me out sometimes but we are never going to tell her that right guys? RIGHT! alright cool thanks for agreeing with me there don't need to see either one of them angry no sir not me some other poor innocent soul can do that but let's just go home and see how this goes shall we see you guys in hell hahaha.

Selene POV:

Hey everyone glad your back it has felt like forever since I talked to you guys but hey what are you going to do now I have a quick question Jess keeps saying I'm talking like Damon more and more is that true? IS IT! I thought not I told Jess she was wrong but anyways let me give you guys a brief of the last thirteen years with Damon and Jess, well where to start oh I got it let's start with the lie I told Jess to get the sitter job okay well after Damon started going to school I decided to actually Persue a career in teaching and I two years ago I did I know I won't be able to be a teacher for more than 5@fuve years because of me being a vampire an immortal unageing species so there's that but I honestly love teaching and Jess and I have become great friend you could even call us best friends she even came to congratulate me in getting my teaching license along with which I enjoyed very much if I do say so myself hmph.... now Damon what can I say about Damon without being flusterd I mean the man is fine and I mean fiiinnnneee I guess being the chosen one does have its perks but he has really progressed well throughout his school years o have noticed he enjoys doing challenging task that are otherwise very difficult for other people my first thought was that he just wanted to challenge himself to see if he could do it but i later found out that it was just to occupy his boredom for the time being and then he got into sports which I was very proud of him, he took Pandora Senior High to the state Championship four years in a row in both basketball and football but then he got bored again after both season were over so I was worried about what he would do after all of this to which I still haven't found out yet but I really hated seeing Damon with other women it's like I'm standing right here god dammit but I eventually calmed down after seeing Damon eying me weirdly but he eventually would break up with them but for the oddest if reason let's take you back to our conversation after he broke up with his latest girlfriend🤬.

FLASHBACK TWO MONTHS AGO

Damon POV:

Hey guys I feel like I'm betraying someone I don't know why it's weird but I just broke up with my girlfriend Becca because of it we were together for a couple months which were great but this feeling I'm having just kept getting stronger as time went on so I decided to break up with her and I guess I'm single now even though I feel like shit after leaving Beccas house we decided to still be friends but I know she was hurt I believe she thinks I'm lost without a father figure but the same could be said for my mom and Selene but honestly I don't give a damn about that bastard to me he was just a sperm donor so I say fuck em me and mom are just fine without him and I have lucien as a father figure but no one needs to know that...not yet atleast, but I decided to go home and ask mom it Selene about this feeling I have been having to see if they have ever felt anything like this I really hope they can help me.

Selene POV:

Hey everyone Selene here I'm not in a good mood ever since Damon started seeing that girl Becca a couple of months ago but what am I going to do right, well I'm just staying focused right now until the times comes for Damon to take on the roll as the chosen one but that will come in time Ooo Damon is home I'll be tight back.

Damon POV:

I just get home and it seems Selene is waiting for I guess that's cool or whatever she has a smile that always seemed to make me feel better but not today I really just want to know about this feeling truly but I know she cares so I'll try to cheer up for her.

" Hi Selene how are you?" Damon ask half heartedly which Selene notices.

" Damon are you okay.... what's wrong?" Selene ask worriedly after seeing Damons half hearted facial expression.

" I should have known you would notice.... I broke up with Becca today!" Damon says sadly

" I see... Damon I know you don't like to talk about feelings and such but can you tell me why, is it about your father or something else?"

" huuuhhh... honestly Selene I don't really know except I keep having this feeling in my chest like I'm betraying someone, it felt like someone was squeezing on my heart every time I saw touched or even greeted Becca it just felt wrong but as soon as I broke up with Becca the feeling went away and I feel like shit because I know I broke Beccas heart at the sake of my own weird feeling!" Damon days sadly with his head down to hide the disgust he has with himself.

" Damon look at me I'm sorry about you and Becca and I don't have the answers your looking for but maybe one day you will find out for yourself I know your probably hating yourself because of this but don't okay you will be okay and I know Becca will be too okay just give her space okay and keep busy with something to oocupy your time while you get over the break up alright!"

" alright thank you Selene you always know what to say thank you for everything!" Damon says as he hugs selene which he finds very soothing for some weird reason.

After their talk Damon thanks Selene again and then heads off to his room to get some rest while Selene is stuck in a daze thanks to the surprise hug Damon gave her.

' he hugged me....he actually hugged me I can't believe it just calm down Selene it's not time for those thoughts just yet' Selene then gets her mind straightened out after that whole situation she had within herself and heads home to grade papers from her students.

FLASHBACK ENDED

Now you are all caught up except for the talk I had with a certain lycan who has been watching Damon his entire life and him and Damon didn't think I would notice hmph if it wasn't for Damon taking a liking to him I would have gutted him already but after the information the lycan gave me about what that voice told him about Damon and the bond the lycan has with Damon I let the lycan stay as long as he continued to protect Damon and Jess here is the conversation no flashback needed author just que the conversation already jeez.

" I know you are here lycan come out now if you wish to continue to see Damon!" Selene says confidently without a ounce of fear In her voice.

" I am here vampire what is it you want!" Lucien says threateningly as he prepares to attack at the first sign of a fight

" I want to know why you are here if your answers are truthful I will leave you be but if you are lying and here to get closer to Damon and take him away from here I will gut you before you can even blink!" Selene says threateningly as she watched the lycan, unaware of who this lycan actually is.

" I am here to protect Damon and his mother from those who would wish to do him or his mother harm and for personal reasons as well" lucien says calmly while watching Selene.

" I see so we are here for the same reason but also different tell what was it the voice told you that was different from mine Damon is my mate that is why I am here so why are you!" Selene say confidently as she watches the lycans eyes go wide after hearing what Selene just said.

" he told me(the voice) that Damon has my sons life essence in him and my loves warrior spirit in him and so I am here to protect him at all cost because what the voice said was true the first time I came in contact with Damon I could feel my unborn sons and loves spirit in him as I did with them a long time ago" lucien says happily but also sadly at the remembrance of what happened to his family so long ago.

" who are you lycan your story sounds familiar for some reasons can you shift back please if we are to stay by Damon's side we must trust eachother so please shift back so I may know who my partner will be in the coming future"

" as you wish but can you get me a change of clothes first if your truly his mate then I don't want the punishment he might give me in the future if I shift back butt ass naked in front of you"

" alright I will be right back then" Selene says alittle too goofy at the mention of Damon putting fear in someone for her.

When Selene finally returns she puts the clothes by a tree as lucien instructed before heading behind the tree himself and changing back and putting on the clothes and stepping out as himself which looks like a young version of will smith which shocks Selene to the core.

" yo...you...you are lucien king of the lycans that's why your story sounds familiar victor was the one who killed your family!" Selene says shocked at the development of Damon being the son of the king of lycans(in essence of course).

" yes I am but victor didn't just take my family he took yours as well!" Lucien says angrily

" what are you talking about lycans killed my family victor is the one who found me!" Selene says angrily to lucien

" No my species because if my did I'm sorry to say this but not even you would have survived the massacre do you know why I think victor killed your family!"

" no I assume it's because your a lycan always trying to place the blame on someone else!"

" actually not true but I believe he killed your family because your father was the one who constructed the prison that is holding William the fist lycan to this day and I believe he kept you alive because of who you look so much alike!" Lucien says that last part as he looks more closely and noticed that Selene looks a awful lot like sonja his love.

" I don't understand who is it that I look so much alike that he would be willing to keep my alive?" Selene says angrily and questionably at victors motives and at his reason for keeping her alive.

" you look like the daughter he condemned to death sonja also the live of my life!" Lucien says sadly.

Selene now understands why she was kept alive and her family was killed and feels sorry to lucien about his love and surprised that she looks like sonja and finally understands Damon's personality.

" thank you lucien for everything you have told me I see that my hatred for lycans was unjust and I can't say my hate for them will go away instantly it's been 600 years you know but I will try to abolish this hate for lycans and also we must both protect Damon as he is the chosen one but he must not know of what we are or who he will become that must wait for the future!"

" I understand as well even the voice told me I would be the one who opens Damon's eyes to the supernatural world I believe we will both be the ones who open his eyes to our world!" Lucien says happily at the thought of showing Damon around the supernatural world the crazy thing is that Selene is having the exact same thought ha.

CONVO END

Now you should be caught all up right good because I here Damon approaching so I have to go talk to you later.

Damon POV:

Heya guys welcome to MY story where did we leave off...ohhh right I am heading home to talking the women in my life about being a cop well I'm approaching the house so let's see how this goes huh.

As I am getting to the front door I'm getting super nervous about the decision I've made but it's not even about me deciding to be a cop it's about telling the two crazy women in my life and when I say crazy I mean black belt crazy you kno what I'm saying but I'm all about railing risk so here it goes

" IM HOME" Damon yells throughout the house.

" Damon your home" Selene and Jess day at the same time.

" hey mom hey Selene I'm glad your both here I wanted to talk to you both about something" Damon says nervously which both women notice immediately

" did you get someone pregnant I'm not mad at you but I swear Damon I had the safe sex talk with you for a reason jeez" Jess says mockingly to Damon.

" WHAT YOU GOT SOMEONE PREGNANT" Selene yells towards Damon

" NO woman jeez stop yelling goddammit I'm going to go deaf over mom why did you have to go and do that huh?" Damon says as he glares at his mom

" we..well I saw you were nervous so I just wanted to raise your mood is all" Jess says nervously as sees Damon's glare

" now what I actually wanted to talk to you guys about was about the career I wanted pursue for the foreseeable future"

" Ohhh okay that makes a lot more sense then Damon going and getting someone pregnant" Jess and Selene say at the same time.

" HEY... what the hell is that supposed to mean I'll have you know I have lots of.... sweets that I must take into consideration about the proper way to eat them!" Damon switched his whole choice of words after feeling two pair of glares on him

" now as I was saying I want to go to the police academy and pursue a career as a homicide detective?!"

" WHAT..but what about those killers and all the criminals you will have to face...Damon no I won't allow it" Jess says as if she could really order Damon pshhh

" Damon is this really what you want to do, being a detective will take a lot of work are up for it?" Selene ask as she stares at Damons eyes looking for any signs of second guessing.

" yes I'm sure Selene I really feel like I can do this and I'll put the work in whatever I have to do and mom what the fuck do you think your doing trying to order me around I'm not one of your students mom I'm your son and second I could potentially save a lot of people by taking a lot of killers out of the equation don't you get it mom what if it were you or Selene do you think I would just sit here and do nothing while the bastard just kept living and living life no mom I wouldn't I would the bastard to the ends of this earth until I caught him because loosing both of you would kill me inside mom!" Damon says emotionally at the thought of losing her and Selene.

" Ohh my baby boy I know you would Damon I just worry is all I'm sorry for doing that if you really wish to take this career path then I want you to get every book you can find on detective skills and we are going to start practicing here alright that's our deal how about it?"

" okay mom you got it I love you both so much!" Damon says as he pulls both Jess and Selene into a tight to let them know he will always protect them.

" And we will love you always Damon" Jess and Selene say at the same time.

After that conversation two grueling months of detective training begun from attention to detail to human behavior (and supernatural behavior unbeknownst to him) to critical thinking to problem solving to communication skills both written and vocal and an understanding of human psychology. After the two months of trading it was finally time to graduate which I must say I am super excited for today and I am valedictorian so I have to give a big speech to my peers as well my senior class super nervous I am, but I am confident in my speech so here it goes.

We are in our seats waiting for principal Smith to start the graduating ceremony as I look around at my classmates and the audience I spot my mom and Selene sitting close by waving at me and I wave back saying I love them hoping they can read lips which they could and mouthed back an I love you too.

The principal finally starts the graduation ceremony but as you know as valedictorian I have to give my speech and that's when I hear Mr.Smith say: Let's give a round of applause for graduating class of 2020 and also to our valedictorian Damon Corvinus come on up here Damon!"

As I'm walking up the stairs to the platform speech in hand I look out and all you can hear is screams " DAMON, Damoooon" I cant help but smile at everyone for that and I look at my mom and Selene I couldn't do anything but say what a great life.

" My fellow students, we only arrived here four short years ago, and now it's already time to leave. How did it all go by so fast? It seems like only yesterday that we were skinny little freshman fighting with the locks on our lockers,trying to figure out where our next class was, and looking clueless to all the upper classmen. Now we are the upperclassmen, the seniors who stand here ready to graduate and move forward in the world. Yet at this seminal moment, we can't help looking back.

How do we measure the time we've spent in high school? In the beginning, we measured it in class periods, counting down the day to eventual freedom. As the days and weeks passed, we measured it in semesters, and later in years as we moved from being those clueless freshman, to becoming sophisticated sophomores who thought they had it all figured out. By the time we reached our junior year, we were confident that we were prepared to take over for the graduating seniors, and we couldn't wait to " rule the school."

And now here we stand. Our rule is over, and it's up to the next class to step up into our shoes and take over. I know that as I look out at all of you, I will measure my time here in a much different way. I will measure it in all the friendships I've enjoyed these last four years. Some were pretty casual and others were much closer, but I'll remember each one fondly, as I'm sure you all will too. And when many of our high school memories begin to fade, that's how we'll ultimately measure the time we spent here l, not in periods or semesters or even years, but in the friendships that we made and the times we shared together.

Congratulations my fellow graduates of the class of 2020, Wherever we go and whatever we do, may we always be friends when we meet again."

"Woooooo, Go Damon Go" all I can here is cheers and claps after my speech and I look at mom and Selene and see tears coming down their cheeks with a smile on my face and I can even see lucien nod his head at me from beside the bleachers and then I sit down and for my name to be said once more for the last time at pandora high.
