Hey all, this is another Klonnie fic, I started it a while back and decided that it was worth finishing.
I love Bonnie with just about anyone but there's something about Klaus…this takes place around season four, except that Bonnie was missing from season three. She left with Klaus and no one had heard from her until she came back. Also, there's no cure in here but Stefan and Elena are broken up and she is with Damon.
Disclaimer: I don't own TVD, if I did, April would already be dead.
When bonnie came back from her journey with Klaus, she mostly kept to herself, not wanting to talk about what had actually happened. When Damon got bitten, she went with Stefan to see Klaus because she didn't trust him one bit and didn't know what he could do to Stefan. She went with Stefan because she couldn't bear to see her friend suffer.
But once they got there, the deal was her for the cure. She would have gladly let Damon die but Klaus also threatened to kill almost all of Mystic falls, so she felt like she had no choice but to leave with him. Stefan tried to fight him but Klaus just compelled him to leave the place after a day.
Ad when she came back, she was quiet and only spoke when spoken to. She didn't seem to care much for anyone anymore and her hatred for Damon increased considerably since it was his fault in the first place, in her eyes anyway. And no one knew what really happened. Stefan was a walking martyr while Damon seemed to minimize her actions, so much that she did set him on fire but got attacked by Elena immediately.
Elena becoming a vampire was a surprise to her and her relationship with Damon even more so. Stefan was the only one she seemed to spend most of her time with.
She was practicing in her bedroom when she heard the bell ring. With an annoyed sigh, she stood and walked to the door. Few people knew of her whereabouts.
"Caroline…" She gave her a half smile and let her in, wondering what the blonde could possibly want.
"Hey Bonnie!" She replied cheerfully and let herself in while Bonnie closed her eyes, pinching her nose.
"So…I need your help!" Caroline turned with an adorable pout, flipping her hair.
"Well, I am busy…why didn't you ask Lena seeing that you are vampires and all." She crossed her arms on her chest.
"You know I can't stand Damon." She said annoyed. "And plus, I wanted to see you. We haven't done anything for a while now."
"Well you know where I live, but of course you were too busy juggling Tyler and Klaus." She finished bitterly.
"Bonnie…" She said shocked.
"I am sorry…it's just been hard to readjust to it all, that's all. so how can I help you?" Bonnie faked a smile to her best friend.
"So…I am going on a date with Klaus and I need help…oh no I kinda forgot that he is the last per_
"It's ok care, I'll help you." She smiled but was dying inside. How could she help Caroline go on a date with him? She hadn't seen him since her return and did her best to hide herself from him. She couldn't begin to imagine what he would do if he saw her since she ran away.
They spent the entire afternoon getting her ready for her date and she finally left. She was left alone to think about what actually happened all the time that she had spent with Klaus and how she ran away.
"I will never help you!" She spat in his face and glared at him. She was strapped to a chair in what looked like an empty room.
"Oh but you will love, a Bennett witch is more useful in hands like mine than those of the Salvatore's. They don't know how to appreciate true power but I can." He smirked.
"I'd rather die than have anything to do with you! You filthy monster!" She yelled and he backhanded her so hard that she felt her eyes roll back and saw stars, feeling blood gushing out of her split lip.
"You will learn to respect me witch, do you understand me? You seem to forget that I hold your little world into my hands and there is no one that can save you. So I suggest that you get used to it SWEETHEART!" He spat the last part and left her alone to cry.
She was pulled back from her memories by another knock on the door and she wasn't pleased to see who that was.
"Damon, what do you want?" She rolled her eyes.
"What? Not happy to see me" He smirked and she rolled her eyes again.
"Whatever you have to say, say it."
"Oh you used to be some much fun before becoming Klaus' lackey." He grinned but didn't expect her to use magic on him. He flew right down the street and felt as if his entire bones were being crushed.
"AGGGGHHHHHHHH! STOP IT!" He writhed in pain. It was worst that burning. Where did she learn that trick?
"You will do well to learn manners. After all if I was in this predicament, it was your entire fault. Now…I take it you will learn." She released him and he gasped. This Bonnie was totally different. What the hell had happened with Klaus? Needless to say, he would watch his mouth.
"The originals are throwing another ball…." He said, putting a little distance between them.
"So?"
"We need to know what they are up to."
"And? I don't see what it has to do with me." She shrugged.
"You're coming. We need you. Elena needs you." Oh that was another way to say "we wanna use you."
"If she needs me so bad, why isn't she here?" she was starting to get angry.
"Look I don't have time for your witchy what not drama, do I look like Stefan? No. so get yourself ready in two days." He thought it was over.
"I see she has you tied with a leash. From the looks of things, I can't really tell who is sired to who." She huffed and Damon blanched a little. "Although I have to admit that you're pathetic. It took Elena to be sired to you to actually love you. Well congrats, I guess she just proved to be exactly like her predecessor in every way." She said with malice. That what he got for not thanking her and still demanding her help.
"I swear judgey if you don't shut it_
"You'll what? Kill me?" She laughed humorlessly. "I'd like to see you try Damon, I am not the same little girl you bossed around…not anymore. So get out of my porch right now. I'll think about your offer." And with that, she slammed the door in his surprised face.
Damon walked home and actually thought about the witch. She seemed…darker. He missed their banter terribly and the sire bond thing was taking its toll on everyone. He was gladder to see her when she came back than he ever thought he would be but she just ignored him constantly and all the time.
Inside the house, Bonnie trembled horribly. A ball with the originals? Was she ready to face him again? There was only one way to find out. Before she lost her nerve, she texted Damon. I am in.

She took the two days to find a suitable gown and did she find it. If she was going to go to the ball, she would steal the show. They worked out that she would go as Stefan's date since she had no invitation- well no one knew she was back except for the gang. She found the most gorgeous pale green strapless gown that had ever existed. It was flowing and let her back bare.
Caroline was of course going as Klaus' date since Tyler had some business to take care of but Bonnie suspected that Caroline was starting to enjoy Klaus' attention. She never seemed to mind going on dates with him just to distract him. Actually Bonnie was pretty sure that she was falling for him. Well he would have the shock of his life tonight.
She got ready and waited for Stefan patiently. She had opted to rent a small flat on the outskirts of Mystic falls so no one would be able to find her. Half of her hair was swept up in an intricate pattern of waves and curls while the rest fell on her bare back and shoulders. She had the perfect evening makeup with striking smoky eyes. All in all Bonnie felt like a confident woman.
Finally there was a soft knock that signaled her Stefan's arrival. She took her golden clutch bag that matched her sandals and few accessories and made her way to the door. When she opened, she saw Stefan in a black tuxedo and he looked very handsome. He smiled at her, taking her in.
"Wow, Bonnie you're very beautiful." Stefan couldn't help but compliment her as he offered her his arm
"Thank you Stefan, you're pretty too." They both laughed and left.
The ball was already in full swing and Klaus seemed distracted. In actual fact, he was annoyed. For all the hybrids that he had sent after her, none were able to find her, let alone trace her at all. He felt so frustrated that she carried on eluding him. He was observing the ballroom from the top of the stairs and his eyes were on his date.
"Why hello brother, what's got your panties tied in a knot?" Kol appeared right next to his brother with a grin.
"As much as I appreciate you showing some brotherly concern, I will politely ask you to show it the same way you did when you were daggered." Klaus replied without giving his brother a look.
"I take it that your flavor of the month is not putting out." Kol chuckled. "Maybe she will like me better; after all, I have the best genes in the family."
"Stay away from her and I mean it." Klaus glared at his brother.
"Whatever, let me annoy Becca , she is a good sport." He walked impeccably down the stairs. Klaus finally decided to go down and indulge his date with a dance.
"My My Caroline you look exquisite." He said with a genuine smile. Her beauty was one of a kind.
"Thank you…" She blushed but enjoyed the compliment. She loved the way he treated her. "OMG, she came!" She excused herself from her partner and left him rooted on the spot. He couldn't move, his limbs wouldn't allow him, he couldn't believe it. She was here…did she come for him? It couldn't be. Not after all that happened. The floodgate of memories opened and crushed. She looked even more beautiful than he remembered. She lost the naïve look she always had and looked more mature. He composed himself and walked purposefully toward her.
Bonnie didn't expect her feelings to come back full force the moment her green eyes met his blue ones. She forgot that they were in a room full of people and only he mattered. He stood in front of her, ignoring the gang and took her hand. He kissed it slowly, much to Caroline's dismay and the other's surprise.
"May I please speak with you Ms. Bennett?" He drawled.
"Are you crazy? After you detained her against her will?" Damon said, surprising everyone, even Elena. "What? I like judgey." He shrugged
"Well, Damon I will give the choice to either shut up or die, either way I don't think that anyone would mind, maybe except for your date that you had to sire to care about you." Klaus almost echoed what Bonnie said Two days prior and it cut deep.
"No need to be unpleasant Klaus, after all we came in peace." Stefan said.
"Indeed you did, but I do not like being ordered by lesser beings." He threw Damon a dirty look.
"Well the only lesser being here is you." Damon said.
"You know what? I am getting my _
"Klaus…you wanted to have a word with me?" She asked in a small voice, touching his arm. He couldn't find his voice and just nodded upstairs where she followed telling the others that she would be fine. Her heart was beating wildly. She didn't know what to expect at all. It had been too long since they had been together…alone. He led her upstairs inside his study and closed the door carefully. In the next second, he had her against the wall.
"I should kill you!" He snarled viciously.
"Wh_Why?" She was suddenly scared as she tried to breathe but it was hard.
"You ask why?" He let her go and turned his back to her. She slid slowly on the floor. He let out a frustrated laugh.
"Klaus…" She started.
"Don't call me that!" He threw a lamp violently on the wall and tears started forming in his eyes.
"I never meant to hurt you…"
"You didn't? What did you think would happen huh? That I'd be happy that you ran off the day after I finally showed you my heart? But that was your plan all along! Get under my skin and then leave me high and dry! You knew that I would let my guards down little witch!"
"That's the problem!" She yelled. "You can't love me Klaus! We are on different sides! You were just infatuated and by the looks of things you moved on!" She said bitterly.
"You lost the right to be jealous when you disappeared! What was I supposed to do? I looked for you everywhere but you didn't want to be found. Well so if that happens to be the case Ms. Bennett, you have no right to be jealous!" they were facing each other, no one wanting to back down.
To be honest, Klaus still loved her with all of his heart but her betrayal cut deep, too deep.
"I am not jealous! But it's nice to see that while I was trying to come to terms with what happened you seemed to have moved and with my best friend!"
"Well, no one asked you to leave but I can tell that you did a good job otherwise I wouldn't have realized that the world had more to offer!" he didn't mean what he said but at that time, he didn't care anymore. He just wanted to hurt her the same way she hurt him.
She gasped a little and was lost for words.
"Yes little witch! And what was I even thinking? I will outlive you and see you wither away! I finally came to my senses and found a match in Ms. Forbes!"
Bonnie felt like thousands of knives were piercing her heart at the same time. Tears streamed down her cheeks but Klaus was too angry to even acknowledge that. How dare she come back and pretend that it was all ok? She retreated to the door without a word.
"Don't let the door slam on your way out."
The rest of the night was a nightmare for Bonnie. She had to endure watching Klaus flirting with Caroline and that just hurt beyond measure. It invoked another memory…
"Why do you always draw me?" She said as she flipped through his drawing book.
"Because to me, you are the epitome of beauty…" He smiled and seemed so much younger and happy.
"Care to dance? I am Kol" A young and very handsome man with boyish charms asked with a smile. He seemed to have a little of Elijah in him. 'Where is Stefan?' She thought because she knew who he was. Stefan had filled her in.
"Er…" She hesitated.
"Come on, I won't bite. I promise." He smiled. His good mood was so infectious that she decided to give in. he couldn't possibly drain her dry in public. And plus, he was a total eye candy.
They both joined the dance floor and Caroline had to admit the two formed a stunning pair.
"You're new?" he asked in her ear.
"Not really but I only came back recently."
"Ah you felt homesick I suppose."
"Something of the sort." She nodded softly.
Klaus was in the process of getting a drink when he spotted them. The flute that he held in his hand crushed without him even noticing it. She was laughing at something that his idiotic brother said and had never looked more breathtaking to him.
"You could burn holes with that stare…you didn't expect to see the witch, did you?" Rebekah appeared next to her brother.
"Don't you have a date to entertain?" He growled.
"You missed her, didn't you? You still love her." She smirked.
"Did you know she was around?" He suddenly spun to look her in the eyes.
"Maybe yes maybe no." She waltzed to the dance floor. So the wrench knew! He felt like staking her at that precise moment.
From that moment, Klaus was over affectionate with Caroline and Bonnie had had enough for the night. She went to find Stefan who was discussing with Elena who looked helpless as usual even though she was a vampire. Bonnie just rolled her eyes as Elena gave Stefan her best puppy eyes. Where the hell was Damon?
"Hey Elena, Stefan, I'm heading home." She said calmly.
"Why, we haven't found anything yet." He looked puzzled.
"Yes, we haven't." Elena echoed Stefan.
"And I don't think you will, not tonight at least. He seemed more engrossed in Caroline than anything else." She covered her bitterness with sarcasm.
"Let me at least get you home." Stefan said and Elena seemed to mind. Probably because she was still used to having both brothers to herself.
"Nah, I am fine. Stay with Lena. She needs you here."
"But_"
"I am a witch and I am powerful, nothing will happen to me." She patted his shoulder gently and took her leave.
She was grateful that Stefan had left her with his car keys. She did a quick spell to conceal her exit from the originals. Well, one original in particular.
"You seem distracted." Caroline asked Klaus because he kept on looking around.
"When I have a beautiful lady in my arms like you, never." He smiled charmingly at her.
"Does it have anything to do with Bonnie?" She enquired and his undead heart almost skipped a beat. Not that it was beating anyways.
"No Love, it doesn't…it just seems weird to have this ball without our mother dearest." He lied and Caroline seemed satisfied with that.
BKBKBKBKBKBKBKBKBKB
Back at her comfortable flat, Bonnie was seething with rage. How dare that bastard? How dare he talk to her like that? His words cut deeper than anything that he could have ever done. And wasn't Caroline supposed to be with Tyler? That traitor! In her anger, almost all of the light bulbs and mirrors burst. She had become more of the powerful witch that she was meant to be. She could feel the power in her veins and she smirked slowly. She felt more free and daring. This town would know who she was.
