Chapter 1: Breaking the Spell

Summary: Remember when Kai linked Bonnie's life to Elena's and said that there was no way to break it? What if Mystic Falls is still as it was before? What if Bonnie could "see" Elena and talk to her? What happens if there is a way?

DAMON POV

It's been three years and six months, I can't take it any longer. I had been going on the starvation diet until Stefan woke me up to help him deal with his issues, like damn. It's killing me to not see Elena. Now, of course, I'm at the bar, drinking away. Same routine, wake up, drink, talk to Elena as if she were here, drink, then sleep. Stefan and Caroline have me out and about sometimes, hang out with Alaric and Matt, and Bon-Bon of course.

"Hey Damon, how's it going?"

"Well, well. If it isn't little Gilbert, long time no see. Why you back in Mystic Falls?" I say a little surprised to see Jeremy after what happened with Elena.

"Just back in town to spend time with friends." He says, shrugs, and goes to sit with Bon-Bon over there in the back. I think nothing of it and leave to go to sleep.

BONNIE POV

I'm sitting by myself, waiting for Jeremey. No one is close enough around to hear me talk to 'myself'.

"Elena, quit with the longing face. We'll figure something out, I promise." I say to my "ghostly" friend.

"Bonnie, it kills me to see him this way. I love him, I just want to go over there hold him, and tell him everything will be okay." She says with a longing face and just looks at Damon. I see Jeremy come over and he talked with Damon. Thankfully, Damon got up and left. We can finally talk about the "Elena" situation.

"Jeremy, have you found anyting?"

"Actually, like you can see Elena, I can see Kai and another witch. They said they'll break the spell. The other witch is making Kai help because he messed with the Balance of Nature so bad." He says with a giant smile on his face "and, with the next celestial event, we can do it next week."

Oh my gosh, I can get my best friend back? I can seriously get her back? I look over at Elena and she has a huge smile on her face.

"Okay Jer, what do we need to do?"

"We need to do it at the place she 'died' at, and have her close loved ones there. Me, You, Damon.."

"Hold up Jer, Damon can't know about this just yet. He'll ge his hopes up or possibly not believe us."

"We can let him know. We just need to talk to him."

I huff at the thought, everyone but Damon knows basically. He was "asleep" for 3 years while we worked on this, so he shouldn't get mad.

"Okay, we'll tell Damon, but it has to be today that we tell him." and with that, I get up and Jer and Elena follow. We leave and I drive us to the Salvatore Boarding house to talk to Damon. Stefan lets us in and we hollar for Damon.

"Damon, get down here, its urgent." When we say that, he super speeds dwn and onto the couch with a bottle of bourbon.

"Damon, we've been keeping from you." I look beside of me and smile at Elena, who gets up and sits beside of Damon and looks at him lovingly.

"While you were 'asleep' for 3 years, I've been able to see Elena in a spirit form. She's not dead, but I don't know how I've been able to see her." Damon looks at me like I'm crazy. Since Elena can touch people, she looks at me and I nod my head. She touchs his hand and holds it. Damon looks all aound for the source of the touch.

"Damon, Elena is right beside you holding your hand. You can't see her because your keeping you emotions at bay. You could be able to see her, if you just let yourself." Damon closes his eyes, and takes in what I just said.

DAMON POV

If Bonnie serious right now? I mean, I can feel her holding my hand. I close my eyes and do what she said. I hopeing and telling myself that I can see her. I open my eyes and the best thing happens, I can see my Elena.

"Elena, can I really see you?" I look her, she looks the same as she did on the day of the wedding (clothes different of course)

"Damon, oh my gosh. I've wanted you to be abl to see me for so long." She stands up and looks at me "Why the hell did you go on the starvation diet, by the way?"

Oh crap... "It made the time go by faster, I just wanted to see you."

"Well, when I come back, we'll talk about this okay?" She sits down beside me again and she cuddles against me. I can actually hold her? Okay, magic confuses me.

"Bon-Bon, how am I able to touch her and hold her?"

Bonnie shrugs looks at Elena, "Do you have any idea Elena?"

"Not really. All I know is that since I'm not dead, I can do more things than the average apparition." I'm not arguing, I'm happy about this.

"Wait, why are you all telling me this now?"

Bonnie looks at Elena, and Elena lets out a breath.

"Well, Damon, there's a way to being me back and Kai and a witch can help"
