Goodbye small town girl
Chapter 1:
Bonnie packed everything she thought she needed. It was hard to concentrate, though, with the tears clouding her vision and all the emotions that have been building up inside of her ready to surface. She just had to leave this miserable town. It was a magnet to bad luck and danger and she had had enough of that to last a lifetime.
She walked over to her closet and grabbed more clothes before placing them into her travelling bag. She stopped in her tracks thinking about her childhood here and how she never left mystic falls before. She couldn't just walk away from everyone and everything here without at least a goodbye. If she had to say goodbye to anyone it would be Caroline. She was the only one who didn't use her for her witch powers except the time when she bewitched her daylight ring. But that was alright. After all she didn't exactly welcome the new vampire Caroline warmly. Tears began to sting Bonnie's eyes again. Caroline was still Caroline if not a bit stronger than before. But she was the only one between her Bonnie and Elena who did not change from their usual self since vampires entered their lives. Instead Caroline is still bubbly and energetic as ever. She was always optimistic about everything. Elena on the other hand is too caught up with the Salvatores she doesn't spare a second glance at her friends anymore.
Sometimes she wished the Salvatore brothers never came to mystic falls. They would have lived a happy normal human life without any of this stupid drama. But of course, bonnie remembered, how can she forget? Klaus would come anyway to kill Elena in order to become a hybrid. Vampires… ugh, Bonnie thought.
The doorbell rang causing bonnie to jump in surprise. Who on earth would visit an angry witch? She specifically told Elena she didn't want to have anything to do with them anymore. She walked to the door and peeped through the peep hole… it was Caroline. Exactly the person she wanted to see.
She barely blinked twice before opening the door and hugging Caroline who broke out in tears.
"He's gone bonnie" Caroline whimpered, "Tyler's gone! He's dead. He-"
"Shh. Everything's gonna be okay." Although Bonnie highly doubted that.
"I-I don't understand! How come we didn't die?"
"Caroline, I don't think Klaus started your bloodline." Bonnie answered.
Caroline looked at her friend still sobbing. "You know what?" she said calmly, "I wish he did. We would have been out of our misery by now." She said the last line with frustration.
"Hey, hey. Don't say that." bonnie stroked Caroline's arm, "Tyler wouldn't have wanted you to be like this. He would have wanted you to live your life to the fullest!" bonnie looked down. She also wanted to say how she didn't think living in mystic falls would achieve that. But Caroline beat her to it.
"Which is why I'm leaving this god damn town." Caroline vented out rolling her eyes.
"You're leaving?" bonnie exclaimed. Caroline looked at her friend with an apologetic look.
"Yeah, I just need to get out of here. Please Bonnie try to under-"
"oh no, no. I get it! I'm leaving too!"
Caroline looked so surprised it was comical. Bonnie grinned at her friend and pointed at her travelling bag on the couch. Caroline gasped, "you're leaving too!"
bonnie nodded, still smiling.
"Perfect! We can travel together!" Caroline squealed. Bonnie's smile flickered. "Caroline, I only have enough money left from grams to go to a motel in Georgia or something, not Paris." Caroline giggled and rolled her eyes, "Bonnie you are in the presence of a vampire! I can use my vampire voodoo to make people let us in on flights, into clubs, and we can stay in whatever hotel we want! Not to mention ultimate shopping." Caroline babbled on walking around the living room. She stopped and turned back to bonnie. "Everything's for free when you're with me!" she smirked her Caroline smirk.
Bonnie sighed with a smile, "I'm really glad I'm going with you. If there's anyone else in the world who needs this vacation us much as I do it's you."
Caroline "aww'ed" before pulling her friend into an embrace.
"And," bonnie continued, "I can't possibly say no to your vampire voodoo abilities on cashiers." She laughed.
They both laughed a bit before they fell quiet; their troubles catching up to their lighthearted planning.
Caroline perked up suddenly. "I'm gonna go home and bring my stuff over here. Then we can decide where we're off to." Caroline started to head to the door.
"Don't you need a hell lot of time to pack all your stuff? I've been to your closet. It's like a mall in there."
"Ha di ha ha, bonnie." Caroline stopped in her tracks and looked at her best friend with a smile, "I've already packed since…"
they both stared at each other. The unspoken words were known to both girls. "Since her mom and Mrs. Lockwood told her and Tyler to run away." Bonnie watched Caroline's face fall.
"Hey" bonnie said as she walked over to Caroline. "Do you want me to come with you? I can help carry the luggage."
"No, no, no." Caroline looked up trying on a smile, "it's fine I can carry them by myself. Besides, I'm the one with supernatural strength." She teased.
"Wow Caroline I'm so jealous! I want to be a vamp now!" bonnie played along.
Caroline opened the door and walked out to the porch. "Hey! Be careful with what you wish for." Caroline warned with a devilish grin that could make any guy's heart stop. Bonnie grinned back at her before closing the door.
"Bonnie! I'm right outside! Calm down I didn't get kidnapped by the council." Caroline laughed, reassuring her worried friend. She parked her car by the pavement across bonnie's house and opened her trunk to carry out her luggage: 5 pink leathered travelling bags.
"You were gone for 2 hours! ugh…" bonnie sighed in relief, "sorry, im a bit jumpy with all that's been happening."
caroline sighed too, "yeah I understand. But…" she continued, "that will be all over once we're out of here!"
Bonnie laughed, "yeah that's true. Now hurry up!"
Caroline hung up and looked at her luggage. With one sweep she was able to carry all 5 bags. Smiling smugly to herself she began walking to Bonnie's house.
"Oh my…." She stopped dead in her tracks. Her face paled of color and her knees began to go weak.
"Tyler?" she cried out to the figure standing on her best friend's porch. She dropped everything and sprinted towards her boyfriend. He didn't respond to his name, but once Caroline pounced on him, he started to notice her.
"caroline?"
she started to hug him so tight. If he weren't supernatural he would have had a broken spine and splintered ribs. She pulled back and stared at him with tears in her eyes.
"Your alive!" she hugged him once more.
Klaus was shocked. She thought he was Tyler. Well, he was possessing Tyler's body ever since Alaric staked his own. Bonnie helped him transfer to Tyler's body to keep him from dying along with the rest of his bloodline, which included Caroline and the Salvatores. The real Tyler thought he was dying but he just got possessed by Klaus… all that will soon be over though. He will be back in his original body with the help of the witch, and Tyler will return once more. He decided to go to the witch's house to demand help but was interrupted by Caroline.
He looked down at Caroline who was hugging him tightly. He never got that sort of attention from her. It sent a shiver down his spine. He wrapped his arms around her and buried his face in her hair, breathing in the smell of roses she always seemed to carry. He could play along, act Tyler. He could get at least a kiss from her or maybe even more…
Suddenly he broke the embrace and held Caroline at arm's length. Forcing her to look him in the eye.
"Caroline, I'm not Tyler." He said.
Caroline stopped smiling and stared at him. The British accent was heavy. Tyler could never pull that off.
She gasped and pushed him away her hands over her mouth. "you…" she whispered.
Frustrated she pushed him even further away with a cry although he didn't budge much. "Klaus! I thought you died! What the hell…" she stopped venting out and stared at Bonnie's door as if it had just spoken to her.
"bonnie…" she whispered before banging on her door so loudly, bringing the living daylights out of it.
"hey care, what took you so long? I-" Bonnie stopped talking once she caught sight of Tyler.
"oh god." she said.
Caroline grabbed the amused looking Tyler and pointed at him. "Explain."
