A New Beginning
CHAPTER 1
Bonnie McCullough finished hanging the small mirror on the wall and stepped back to admire her reflection. Her appearance hadn't changed much in the last two years; her hair had grown a few inches longer and now cascaded down her back in tight fire-like curls. Brown eyes, still wide with youth and hidden knowledge, stared back at her accusingly as she smiled. A few freckles had collected over her noes and cheekbones due to the hot summer sun. But other that that her skin was flawless with a healthy tanned glow. Her features were still small and elfin and her figure slim but curvy.
Smiling she winked at her reflection before twirling around the room admiringly.
"Not bad Bonnie McCullough" She spoke under her breath as she collapsed on to the new red sofa. Gazing around the small lounge she smiled in satisfaction. It had taken her almost a week to move in and make the place seem like home. "Well it is home now" she sighed. Moving from Fells Church had been a split second decision and she didn't regret it one bit. Everyone she knew from home had moved on and she felt like it was her time to branch away and start a new life.
Simply Fells Church held too many bad memories, memories she would like to forget; Elena's death . . . well both deaths actually, the incident with Katherine and Klaus, not forgetting the part that Tyler played in it all and Matt . . . Matt and his betrayal with Caroline Forbes. Bonnie scowled that was the past, over and done with; she wasn't the innocent schoolgirl anymore. Her innocents had been lost the night she found out that Vampires and werewolves and all things that go bump in the night were real. Her psychic abilities had even helped to destroy the old Bonnie; the sweet and innocent girl which everyone had grown to love.
She had changed a lot in the last two years, toughened up; she'd had too.
Bonnie scowled again not forgetting the real reason she left Fells Church behind, the name flowed from her lips soundlessly "Damon . . ."
Groaning she staggered over to the kitchen and poured herself a glass of milk. Pressing the cold glass to her forehead she winced, it was another one of those headaches; more like a migraine actually but Bonnie knew differently. Her psychic ability had strengthened dramatically since the night Elena came back and she still had no control over it. It would just come and go at the most inappropriate times, like in the middle of a date. The last time that had happened the man of her dreams had run a mile, and another time when she was performing her grading for Tae Kwon Do. The shear power of it all had slammed into her mind like a thought bomb, exploding all her senses and messing up her mind.
At first receiving other peoples thoughts and emotions had been so intense that she thought that her mind would disintegrate. But over the last year Bonnie had managed to build up a weak mind block, on a good day her shields would last for 10 hours and on a bad day only 2.
Today was a not-so-bad day.
Bonnie sighed and swallowed the two Aspirin she held in her hand, knowing that they would do no good. Distracting her mind always helped. Tuning out the voices she concentrated on unpacking her clothes and placing them in the new set of draws.
~~So what do you think of the beginning? I've reached a stand still with my other Bonnie and Damon fic so I decided to give you a short fic. I'll update every day or very two days.~~~
