Flames of Love

Chapter 1: Play With Fire

When somebody's knockin,
When somebody wants me,
When somebody's trying to love me completely.
I get scared,
Don't know how it works.
Will somebody save me?
Or will I get burned? - Hilary Duff

Elena POV:

I watched as Bonnie walked away from the person Caroline killed, I felt sad for my best friend. She had been through so much in the past year. She came to stand across from me as Stefan took Caroline inside.

"I can't believe this is happening." Bonnie said in tears.

A familiar voice came around the . Oh great, just what we need.

"Oh,don't pout about it. We have a body to bury." He walked over to me.

"I thought you were calling the shots" he said, glancing at the body."No?''

"Sucks to be you, buddy" He said sarcastically to the body

I looked over to Bonnie to check and see if she was okay, and back at Damon.

The next thing I hear is Damon's "Ahhhhhhhhhh!''

He dropped the shovel and put his hands on his head. I looked at Bonnie. Her eyes were glazed over as she looked at Damon. She then turned the water hose on with her mind, pointing it at Damon, who was now on the ground, groaning.

"I told you what would happen if anyone else got hurt."

"I didn't do this" Damon said, in pain.

"Bonnie!" I said "It wasn't his fault!"

"Everything that happens is his fault, Elena" She said, her eyes cold and hard as stone.

The water was now rushing towards Damon.

"Bonnie, what are you doing?"I asked slowly.

Damon propped up on one elbow to see the water turn into flames rushing toward him.

"Bonnie, stop it! Bonnie, Bonnie, stop it!''

The flames kept on going, burning up Damon's legs.

"Bonnie, stop it, you're going to kill him!"

The flames were increasing, I had to do something. Damon might be a total ass who killed my brother, but there was no way in hell I am going to stand here and watch Bonnie kill him.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Ahhhhhhhhh!" Damon was screaming in agony and swatting at his legs. "Errrgggghhhhhh"

"Bonnie!" I yelled before jumping over the flames to push her away.

"Hey! Hey!" I said, grabbing hold of her arms, shaking her. The flames slowly started to recede.

She smacked me. "Why? Why did you stop me?" she said

"Because, this isn't us, Bonnie, this can't be us" "Come on."I whispered turning around to look at Damon, my arm around the crying Bonnie. He was swatting away the last of the flames, gasping. I wanted to go to him, to make sure he was okay, but I took Bonnie inside.

I helped her inside and got her through the school and to her car. "Bonnie, it can't be this way." I whispered.

"Elena, you need to make the choice, I want to be your friend, but I can't be around them anymore, they killed Grams." She said.

"I know Bonnie, but Damon's my friend, even after the things he's done. I tried to hate him, but I can't. He really needs someone right now."

"Elena! How can you say that? He killed Jeremy, Elena! Vicki is dead because of him! The whole town is a blood bath Elena ; B- E- C- A-U-S-E of him, I am living a life filled to the brim with secrets, I can't go a day without hearing how someone was attacked or worse killed. He is a killer Elena, he might act nice towards you and help you out, but that's just so he can get what he wants. It's all about him."

"Bonnie" I said. "Calm down, Damon has changed and you know it!"

"No he hasn't Elena, and the next time, you won't be able to stop me from turning him into ashes."

"Bonnie, don't be like this!"I said as she got in the car.

"Like what Elena? Trying to protect this town?, I'm going home, come to me when you're done with the blood suckers. You're just like Katherine."She drove away without another word.

I started to say no, to deny the horrible comment before slowly realizing that I was becoming just like her. I was turning into Katherine Pierce-caught between brothers.

I walked through the school hallway and whispered to myself. "I am just like her, Bonnie was right"

"What was that, Elena?" I heard a silky voice say.

What I hadn't realized was that there was leather – clad figure sitting, back up against the wall, staring up at me with cerulean blue eyes.
