A/N: I know right, I've started a new fic without updating anything else. But this is just because of all the Bamony goodness we got in 5x22! Hope you all enjoy! Love you! Xoxo.

They both knew it would happen…. they knew that their friends would succeed in finding a way to bring them back. They just didn't think it would be so soon.

Bonnie and Damon's eyes stayed enclosed on one another as their family and friends brought them into a hug and held them tightly. They tried to feel something…anything, but they couldn't. It had been Bonnie and Damon for so long and now having others touch them just didn't feel right.

"Bonnie, I'm so glad you're back." It was Caroline who captured Bonnie's attention away from Damon. It was the smile on her face and tears in her eyes that made Bonnie notice that they were in the Salvatore Boarding House.

She tried to smile, but it didn't quite reach her eyes as she stared at everyone who tried bringing them comfort; Caroline, Stefan, Tyler, Matt, Alaric, and Elena and Jeremy. The way Elena was staring at Damon and the way Jeremy was staring at her, made her stomach church into knots.

She needed to get out of here. She couldn't be here with everyone right now. Her eye's then caught Damon's one more time and the look he was giving her told her that he would handle everything and find her afterwards. Or it could have been the bond that had formed between them, practically letting them know what the other was thinking.

"I'm sorry everyone, I…. I have to go…" Bonnie heard her name being called, but she exited the boarding house without turning back.

All eyes then flew to Damon.

"What all happened over there?" Matt's voice invaded the staring match everyone was having.

Damon realized at this moment that he should have just left with Bonnie and let the little Scooby gang make their own assumptions.

Bonnie was in front of the place she use to call home for such a long period of time; the place that she was practically raised. She enjoyed growing up here. And she missed her Grams, her namesake, so much.

She walked into the house and everything still looked the same… which was weird, because Bonnie knew that she had been gone for quite some time. There didn't seem to be a speck of dust or anything.

"I wanted to leave everything like it was….."

Bonnie quickly turned around to see Caroline standing in the doorway.

"Because I knew that we would find a way to bring you back. And though it's been a year, I knew that this would be the first place you would want to be."

The tears were back in Caroline's eyes and Bonnie couldn't bare herself to see it. She was grateful for what Caroline and everyone else did. She really was, but they didn't understand what they had done. But how could Bonnie tell her best friend that she wished that they would have given up on bringing them back.

"Caroline…" Bonnie's voice was just a little bit above a whisper, but Caroline could hear her clear as anything.

"I don't know what happened to you over there and I'm sure you want to be alone right now, but I'm here if you need anything and we're all here for you, I love Bonnie and I'm just so glad you're…."

Bonnie had her arms around Caroline in an instant. And even though she could feel all of Caroline's emotions running through her as she cried, it still didn't feel right.

After a moment, Bonnie released her hold on Caroline and looked into her watery eyes, "I love you too… but I just… I need some time alone. I'm sorry."

Caroline nodded, understanding. She would give Bonnie her space today but tomorrow she would come back in hopes that she would confide in her.

And then she left Bonnie alone with her thoughts. It had been a whole year since Bonnie and Damon died and the other side went crumbling down. It's crazy how it felt longer there, but now that they were back it felt as if they hadn't had enough time.

As Damon stared into the fireplace, he was more than glad that the gang of misfits had decided to exit the boarding house. Learning that it had been a year since he and Bonnie had left this world made him question a lot of things. Over there in the other dimension it was as if time had stopped. He didn't know whether it had been weeks or months or even years. And yet, he didn't care. He was as happy as he had ever been there. He was with Bonnie. He was at peace…. finally.

And now… now he didn't know what to feel.

"You're avoiding her aren't you?"

Stefan's voice brought Damon out of his concentration as he sat down beside him. And immediately he thought of Bonnie. He wasn't avoiding her….he would never avoid her. He knew that they would be seeing each other later this evening.

And then he realized that the her he was talking about was Elena Gilbert. She wanted to talk to him, hug him… kiss him…. be there for him, but he didn't want that. Not again… not anymore.

"If you came here to talk about the girl we use to lay down our lives for, then I'd rather be alone for a while." He actually would rather be alone right now either way.

Stefan glanced at him a little shockingly and then his attention went back to the fire.

It grew silent between them for a moment.

"I wanted to say that I'm glad you're back… that I missed you, and that I'm sorry I couldn't have saved you sooner."

Damon knew Stefan was sincere and that he meant well. He had missed his brother too, but he didn't want to be saved. He was happier where he was.

The sun would be setting soon.

Bonnie Bennett was staring up at the sky as she stood in the place where it all happened; where she and Damon knew there was no turning back.

And now they were back, but Bonnie didn't want to be here. This place… this world… she wasn't connected to it anymore. She and Damon had finally accepted what had happened to them and they had found their peace… with each other. Just like her Grams sacrificed herself for, and now it felt like it was all over.

Where she and Damon were, wasn't a hell dimension like everyone thought. But this place… this world, it felt like the hell dimension. It felt cold… dark… and she hated that she had spent her whole life here; never noticing the truth behind it all.

As soon as hands that made her feel warm inside, intertwined with hers, she immediately began to calm down and feel safe. Their eyes connected and instantly the image of them standing here a year ago before they were taken away, entered their mind. But as quickly as it had come…. it was gone.

"What happens now?" Bonnie's voice instantly brought tranquility over Damon as they both stared at the sun setting. Being away from her for just a couple of hours was pretty hard, especially because of the bond that they had formed. A bond that was stronger than anything seen on earth.

He squeezed her hand a little tighter, providing the comfort they both needed.

"We could always kill ourselves and go back."

She knew that he was joking and yet that thought had crossed both their minds earlier today.

"I don't think it works that way though."

"Can't blame me for trying."

She smiled.

"I think Elena knows I'm avoiding her."

The soft breeze that was gracing their skin instantly picked up, and for a moment Damon almost thought there was going to be a tornado. He then caressed the hand he was holding of Bonnie's, reassuring her, and it ceased.

"Easy there, little bird…. Or should I call you little witch again, since you've got your powers back and all."

Bonnie just smiled and rolled her eyes, "But I think you're right, because I think Jeremy knows I've been avoiding him too."

The veins formed on Damon's face for just a mere moment.

"Now that I'm a vampire again, remind me to kill him."

"I think you've learned how to restrain yourself a bit. Don't you think?"

"Not when it comes to you or anyone who thinks they can take you away from me."

She then turned to face him and grabbed onto his face gently, "You know that will never happen."

"You know they'll figure us out eventually…. I mean you will start showing soon enough."

Bonnie's hands immediately went down to her stomach, and Damon held his hand over them.

"I don't want to raise him or her here, Damon. I don't want …. "

He brought her into a hug, holding her gently against him, "I know, but you know I will never let anything happen to our little son or daughter…. Or you."

And Bonnie knew that without a doubt.

She and Damon had become more than just a team, more than just friends, more than just lovers. They now shared the same soul.

But this would just be a new challenge that they would have to face… together.

The End.

A/N: What did you all think? Just imagine if Bonnie and Damon were brought back, but they were really happy where they were. I hope you all enjoyed my little one-shot!
