"With your mother." He replied and made his way up to her mouth. "She missed them and I wanted to come see you."

"Well what if... I give you a massage. You're all tense plus I took the morning off and then afterwards we can go for lunch and to the doctors." She said and took the flowers from him. "Thank you for the flowers. Now get your butt in room 5."

"Yes ma'am." He said and shuffled away.

    Ever since Salvatore's Bar & Grill opened its doors, Stefan Salvatore always felt that he was more serious about the business than his partner and older brother Damon.
