Bonnie One-Shot:

Elena had decided that after school the two of us would hang out at the Boarding House for some much needed Bonnie/Elena time. Lord knows I needed a break from magic and vampires for a while. It felt like I had been looking at spell books every night, I needed to socialize. Stefan was hunting, Mere was with her boyfriend, and Matt was at football and Damon… who cared.

So anyways, we were at the Boarding House, and Elena told me to wait because she wanted to do something with me.

She left, and I waited excitedly on the living room floor. My mind was racing, what could it be? It was not anywhere near my birthday.

"Ta-da!"

She laid it on the floor.

I stared, and stared.

"An Ouija Board?" I said, fake enthusiastically.

She sat down across from me, "Exactly!"

"What do you-"

"Well, I was thinking," she tossed her golden hair behind her shoulder. "That we could mess around with some ghosts, and see what they have to say."

Through clenched teeth I responded, "Ghosts are not here for entertainment purposes, Elena. Some of them might even be dangerous."

"Well, we won't know unless we try it out."

"By we, you mean me, don't you?"

"Well, yeah, I don't have your powers," she replied rolling her eyes.

"So this is what you wanted to do today? This was your plan for Bonnie/Elena time. Me entertaining you, with my powers?"

She scoffed, "Well, when you put it like that, it makes me sound selfish."

That was the last straw, she was not even trying to deny that she wanted me around today so that she would not be bored.

"That's because you are selfish, Elena!" I exclaimed, standing up with my fists balled at my sides.

"Am not!" she said, standing up as well.

She figured that with her height advantage over me at this point I would cower and apologize, but I was so not in the mood for selfish Elena.

"Oh, really? Did you ever stop to think, gee, I wonder how Bonnie will feel about using more of her powers to 'play around with me'. I am tired, Elena, I have been helping all of you out as best I can. Then you turn around and want me to do this for fun? You really need to take a step back and look around you Elena, you might actually see others besides yourself for a change."

A hurt look crossed her face, then it was replaced by anger, "You know what, you make yourself sound so important with you big magical powers, but without you, we still have Damon. He's far more useful than some witch."

"Hah! Because Damon is amazing! Damon is a god! Damon loves Elena! Damon is perfect!" I threw my hands in the air sarcastically. "Geez, Elena, don't you remember… You're with Stefan now. Not Damon. For real, Elena, you are even wearing the engagement ring Stefan gave you! We all know you want the brothers to yourself, but honestly, one day, Damon and Stefan will realize that you are just like Katherine… playing with their hearts, and they will leave you. Stop stringing them along and pick a damn guy already!"

She stood there with her mouth hanging open, I was shaking with anger.

I felt… so powerful. I had all that bottled up inside and releasing it felt so good… and the reaction on her face, priceless.

She finally closed her mouth and gave me the ice cold glare that she used to give to Caroline, crossing her arms she replied, "Jealous much, Bonnie? It sounds to me like you like Damon… and you are jealous of the attention he gives to me, not you."

I stopped shaking, "What? Are you drinking too much vampire blood, is it all getting to your head?"

"Face it, you're jealous. Always have been, ever since we began being friends. Every guy picked me, and you want to know why? Because you're worthless. You have nothing to offer to guys. You're worthless. Why even exist? All you do is get in the way."

That last comment hung in the air, and I knew I had to leave before I did something I would regret later when I was thinking clearly.

I grabbed my purse off the floor, and began to leave. I paused when I opened the front door and turned back to look at the Viper, "Go to hell, Elena."

Her eyes looked hurt as I turned back to leave.

She didn't even try to stop me and apologize. I was right, she was a selfish girl.

I couldn't face the people of the town right now, so I cut behind houses to get home. As I walked, Elena's words replayed in my head.

"You're worthless. Why even exist? All you do is get in the way."

There was no way that was true. Was it?

Sure, I get scared easily. Maybe even passed out on occasion, but she would too if she were a witch with more power than she could handle.

When I reached the house, I knew that it would be empty. My parents had to work late every school night until eight, it was only five forty-five.

I sighed, walking into the empty house. Damon had killed my dog, so I didn't even have a pet companion to greet me.

A headache was beginning to form, and I needed to sit down. I went straight to the medicine cabinet and grabbed two Aspirin. Then, I went to my kitchen and grabbed a water bottle out of the fridge.

I swished the pills straight down my throat and chugged the water bottle.

Throwing the water bottle away, I found a longing to go outside to think. That's what I did.

I sat down on the bench in my backyard underneath the tree in the shade. Rubbing my temples, I used the smallest amount of power possible to clear my head.

I closed my eyes and focused on the sound of the wind blowing through the trees and the grass. My body began to sway with the wind. I felt like dozing off.

"You're not asleep are you?" boomed a voice. Damon's voice, to be exact.

I practically jumped out of my skin, "Damon! Don't scare me like that."

He shrugged, sitting down next to me in his perfect finesse of black jeans, black shirt, leather jacket, and black motorcycle boots.

"What are you doing in my backyard?"

"Well, I just had a little… meal, and I was flying around when I felt a spark of power. I figured it was you, so I came to see what spell you were trying out this time."

I sighed, "I was just trying to clear my head."

"Birdie got something on her mind?" he asked, smirking.

"Actually Elena and I just got in a really big fight. You might want to go check on her, I don't think Stefan's home yet. You could score some Kudos if you go now."

He growled, causing my heart to speed up.

"I don't especially enjoy being ordered around, Cara. Not by you or anyone."

Everything got really quiet, and I snuck a peak to my side, hoping he left.

He was still there, looking straight at my neck.

I scooted away quickly, "Look, Damon. All I was trying to say was, if you love her as much as you claim you do, this is your window of opportunity."

His face relaxed and he shrugged his shoulders. Damon reclined on the bench with his legs stretched out in front of him.

"I don't exactly feel inclined to do so."

"What?"

"Elena is Stefan's problem now. They are engaged after all."

I couldn't help but gasp, "Are you saying that after all this chasing, you're giving up?"

"I'd rather think of it as, giving that problem over to Saint Stefan."

I smiled, "So, what made you… unlove Elena?"

He shrugged, "I guess I figured why go after Stefan's mate, when I've had someone who has been there for me the entire time?"

My heart practically stopped, he was looking right at me, "A-and wh-who might that be?"

He slid closer, until our knees were touching and our faces were mere inches apart, "It's you, Birdie, it always has been."

He looked down at my lips, and he tilted his-

*BOOM BOOM

My body jerked me awake.

"Bonnie, get up! We need your help."

"I'm awake."

The footsteps disappeared down the hallway of the boarding house.

I sighed, "It was just a dream. Back to the real world."

I couldn't help but notice, as I got out of bed a familiar black crow fly from its place on the tree branch outside my window...

Please review! Give me advice.. anything is appreciated:)
