Blast From the Past
Author's Note: I've never done a story quite like this so definitely review and tell me if it's any good or not. I was reluctant to put it up mostly because I didn't know exactly where I'm going but I have most of it ready to upload so there will be quick updates. It takes place around 2x19 and 2x20 but it doesn't exactly follow all the events. Actually I'll probably change a lot of things about the Klaus battle. The way I wrote Bonnie's character she might seem out of character, sorry about that but it had to be done. So ready, enjoy, review!
Chapter One: Wacky Witchcraft
Flipping through her Grams grimoire in the Salvatore Boarding house, Bonnie came across a particular spell that sparked curiosity inside of her.
"To See Past Loves," Bonnie murmured the title and she looked up to see Damon, Stefan, and Elena descending from the stairs, arguing as usual. Bonnie stared at Damon with a calculating look, watching as the elder vampire scowled at Stefan and Elena. They were fighting over Klaus as always.
Ever since Bonnie had moved in here, as well as Jeremy, Jenna, and Alaric, all she ever seemed to hear was them arguing. Klaus was tearing them apart, he was tearing them all apart.
Maybe we need something to lighten the mood, Bonnie thought with a sly grin, staying on the page.
She waited patiently, trying to act focused on the book of spells in front of her until Damon left out the front door to go get more groceries since humans lived there now.
"Hey Stefan," Bonnie asked innocently, dragging Elena and his attention away from whatever drama was going on now.
"Yeah Bonnie," he offered me a smile as Elena and him joined me on the couch.
"I know Damon loved Katherine and he went searching for her for like 140 years but do you think he loved anybody in between then to now?"
Stefan cocked an eyebrow at her and Elena shot a confused look at me. "No, not that he ever told, or would ever tell me for that matter, but I have never seen Damon with anyone else for more then a few weeks, so I just assumed..." Stefan trailed off knowing she got the point.
"Why?" Elena asked curiously.
Bonnie flipped the book over and showed her the spell.
"Might lessen the arguing around her, provide for a distraction, maybe we'll even get an insight to the mystery that is Damon Salvatore?" Bonnie suggested with a sly smile.
Elena peeked a glance at Stefan, liking this plan already. "What do you think. Damon can't have only loved one person all throughout his life, there had to be more. Don't you want to find out?" Elena asked him eagerly.
Stefan overlooked the spell with a sigh. "It says you need the subject in the room and it will portray it to all in the room like a movie. Damon will be super pissed once the spell's over," Stefan pointed out.
"Sometimes you just got roll with the consequences Stefan," Elena told him with a smile, pecking him on the cheek.
Stefan was hesitant at first but with a reluctant sigh he agreed.
"I'll go get the supplies!" Bonnie announced and went up stairs to her room.
"Supplies?" Alaric questioned as he passed Bonnie on the stair case.
"We're going to a spell on Damon to see his past loves!" Elena announced with a grin.
Alaric glanced at the weary Stefan. "He's going to murder us all in our sleep," Alaric announced with a sigh.
"Are you going to watch with us?" Elena asked, as if it were some random movie rather then Damon's memories.
"Why not, he'll kill me anyway, even if I wasn't directly watching it," Alaric agreed taking a seat on the armchair by the fire.
"Klaus is going to be pissed off if we die at Damon's hands instead of his," Stefan teased Elena lightly.
Soon Bonnie was setting up the candles, lighting them and memorizing the spell in her head because as soon as Damon walked in the door she would have to say it.
The tell tale sign of the key twisting in the lock let them know Damon was home. Bonnie started chanting quietly as Damon walked in, carrying a few bags.
"What's going on?" Damon asked as Alaric and Jeremy took the bags from him.
"It wasn't my plan," Stefan announced as Bonnie finished the spell by saying Damon's name. Suddenly a bright light illuminated the room and screams followed as it flashed over all of them.
"Is everyone alright?" Stefan yelled as the light faded leaving the room back to normal except...
They weren't in the Salvatore Boarding house anymore. In fact they didn't know where they were.
"What the hell," Damon hissed, clearly enraged.
"It was a spell...a spell to see your past loves," Elena rambled out, clearly shocked.
"I didn't know it would actually take us back in time!" Bonnie admitted surprised and slightly scared.
They surveyed the room to see it looked like a college dorm room, two twin beds and a regular room lay out. Personal items hadn't been put in the room yet.
"Oh god..." Damon muttered looking around the room with a haunted expression.
"Do you know where we are?" Stefan asked him.
"Yes, my college dorm, in my room," Damon snarled at him, narrowing his eyes into slits. "How could you let them do this?"
Stefan looked sheepish with a guilty expression.
Suddenly the door opened and two boys walked, one with ebony hair and two bright blue eyes, everyone recognized him immediately he hadn't changed that much. It was Damon, though with slightly longer hair and less modern clothes.
"What time period?" Stefan asked curiously.
"1980's."
They all looked to the other boy to see he was as handsome as Damon with a shaggy head of light brown waves and two perfectly emerald eyes upon a perfect complexion with a thin, lithe frame and almost feminine cheek bones. He was adorably cute, and somehow equally sexy at the same time.
He was around the same as Damon, twenty-three.
"I get the bed on the right," the boy announced with a grin. Clearly this was Damon's roommate.
"Hell no, you can have the left," Damon countered with a glare at the other bossy boy.
The boy scoffed in amusement. "Rock, paper, scissors me for it," challenged the boy.
Damon laughed in amusement.
"I guess they can't see us?" Elena asked.
"We're probably just spectators, here to observe," Bonnie agreed.
"But why is it showing us this, it's supposed to show us his past loves," Jeremy asked confused. No one answered him, and Damon certainly wasn't saying anything.
Damon laughed in amusement. "Yeah, what are you twelve?" He seemed lighter and happier then the present day Damon. There was less of haunted look in his eyes and he seemed, freer.
"Are you scared of a challenge, Salvatore," the boy asked, raising a perfect brown eyebrow with an easy going smirk on his face.
Stefan looked back at his Damon to see a pained expression on his face. Then suddenly it all clicked and Stefan gasped. "This, him is your past love?" Stefan asked excitedly.
Damon looked over to him and glared as the other processed this as well with mouths opened in an 'o.'
"I didn't know you were gay, or bisexual I should say," Elena told him to trying to ease the tension. Damon looked like he was ready to kill all of them as he glared at her.
"I never refuse a challenge, Johnson," Damon spoke up with a sly grin and he held out a fist, ready to part take in the childish game as a tie breaker.
They played and Damon most likely with his vampire reflexes won with an award winning smile. He laughed in the boy's face and moved to put his things on the right side.
"You may have won the battle but not the war Salvatore," the boy announced with a teasing smirk as he moved over to the left side.
"I'd be careful if I were you, I'm an excellent strategist," Damon responded with a wicked grin.
The boy looked him over. "Your not so scary."
With that the memory seemed to end and everything became a tumbled mess of darkness before that bright light came again and left rapidly.
