Bonnie's perspective:
I was pacing in front on the door to the Gilbert house. I could hear the movement inside as somebody rushed to answer the door. My stomach was in knots; the inner battles in my brain fighting whether to run or just open the door myself. Today is supposed to be the day when Jer and I tell Elena about us. Ever since Damon killed Elijah, things have calmed down… for now. Elena hasn't expressed a concern about Klaus since then and we feel like it is the correct time to tell her what is going on.
Suddenly the door opens and standing in front of me, smiling that infectious smile, in the object of current affection: Jeremy Gilbert.
"Hey Bon! Come on in. Elena still out with Stefan, but she promised she would be home soon."
At sight of him my own smile blasted full on. I walked around him trying to make sure I didn't touch him and get distracted. I suppose it should be weird to me that I like my best friend's little brother. At first it was and I had to remind myself of that point constantly. But now when I think about it, I can't picture my life without him.
However, none of this stops my heart from racing when I remember why I am here. What am I suppose to tell Elena? 'Hey Elena. So while your were out worrying about Klaus and trying to keep all of your friends safe… I, um, kind of developed the hots for your little brother. Oh but don't worry whenever we're around you, we'll try to keep it on the low profile, ya' know, so you don't yet weirded out.'
"Hey Jer! So what's up?"
"Not much I just got out of the shower, that's why it took me so long to get to the door. I figured answering in my birthday suite might have started the conversation with Elena a little differently then we would have hoped."
Damn it, Jeremy! At the mental image currently swirly in my head, I could feel the blood rise to my cheeks and hear my breathing rapidly speed. Unfortunately, Jeremy noticed all these too and his smug smirk took place on his handsome face.
"Bonnie Bennett!" Is your mind in the gutter because of me?"
"Shut up Jeremy. We need to stay focused and.."
"Hey," Jeremy interrupted, "I am focused. You're the one whose mind is on other things. Not that I practically mind, considering I'm the one who's on your mind, right?"
No matter how much I tried, I couldn't get myself to not flirt back. "Yes, Jeremy you are. But stop flirting, Elena's going to home any minute and we need to be able to tell her the truth without freaking her out."
"Hey guys, I'm home. What do you need to tell me?"
