"I don't care!" She shouted at Kai as she threw a random object at his head that he quickly dodged by ducking last minute. Bonnie was picking things up randomly around her room in search of something that would hopefully hit him in the head and knock some sense in him. As if that was even remotely possible but it was still worth a try.

He rose from ducking, his nostrils flaring angrily. "Oh yeah? Well maybe I do!"

She scoffed as she held her lamp in hand, ready to toss it at him but momentarily distracted by the irony of his statement. "That's real rich. The sociopath suddenly cares."

Kai glared. "Reformed sociopath. And yeah, I do care. But only about what happens to you." He pulled out his cellphone and held it up to her face to show her the bright light. "See this, Bon? It's a neat little device that allows the person on the other end to actually answer!" He shouted the last part, forcing her to roughly smack his phone out of his hand.

"Funny, I could've sworn that those devices have a little red button that allows me to decline unwanted calls! Do you get that part, Kai? Unwanted. As in unwelcomed. As in I didn't want to answer because I was finally out having a good time for once-"

"With Damon!" He shouted in disgust.

Bonnie rolled her eyes, still holding onto the lamp in case he got out of hand again and she was forced to smash it against his thick skull. "No, not with Damon. With Elena and Caroline. Damon just so happened to show up. What am I supposed to do? Disappear every time Damon decides to crash our girls night?"

"I'd prefer it if you gave him a mind numbing aneurysm but disappearing works too." He shrugged nonchalantly.

"No!" She exclaimed, eyes wide. "Damon is Stefan's brother. Stefan is Elena's fiancé, therefore by extension Damon will forever be apart of my life. Therefore you two will have to learn how to-"

"Don't even say it." He forced out through gritted teeth. "I will never get along with that pompous bloodsucker. And he didn't just show up randomly, okay? He knew you were going to be there so he purposefully followed you guys there-Hey! Where do you think you're going?"

"Away from you!" She shouted as she left her bedroom and stomped her way into the kitchen where she could try to prepare herself a drink in peace.

It felt as if she and Kai were having this same argument every other week. Just last week she'd went to get coffee with Elena and Stefan to go over some of their wedding plans and what bridesmaid dresses were best suited for all girls. Damon, as Stefan's best man obviously showed up as well. So did Kai ten minutes later with the intent to kill as he splashed a steaming cup of coffee he'd just paid five bucks for only to waste on Damon's face. He'd been about to order another, this time with whip cream before Bonnie had grabbed him by the ear and forced him to leave with her where they'd gone to her apartment and had this same argument on repeat.

Bonnie was pouring herself a glass of wine when Kai entered the kitchen, looking appropriately disheveled. "So you think it's a coincidence, huh? That wherever you so happen to be he just randomly shows up?"

"I don't think these headaches you give me are coincidences." She mumbled as she began rubbing her temples before taking a long swig of wine, nearly emptying the entire glass in one gulp.

"And then you don't answer your phone. You could've been dead in a ditch for all I know-"

"My phone was dead, okay?" She repeated for what felt like the hundredth time. The choosing to not answer part was just another way to get underneath his skin for being an ass.

"So I decide to go check on you because it's so un-Bonnie like to not answer your phone. I was just going to take a peak inside the club, make sure you were safe. Then who do I see?" He clenched his teeth. "That pasty faced motherfucker, leaning all over you like he's thirsty for your damn blood!"

"Kai," She groaned miserably. "Insecurity is not cute on a guy!"

"Insecure?" He repeated in disbelief. "Insecure? No, no, no. I know you don't want any other guy the way you want me." He got closer to her as he spoke, closing her in against the counter as he placed his hands on either side of her. "But him? Him I don't trust."

She narrowed her eyes suspiciously. "Him or me?" When Kai tucked his lips together and said nothing, all of her anger seemed to return as she made a noise of frustration and used both hands to shove him away. He barely budged. "You're unbelievable!" She shouted. "I've given you no reason not to trust me, you-"

"It's been over a year, Bonnie!" He bursted before she had the chance to insult him.

She paused in slapping his chest, her hands tightening around his sweater as she blinked at him in confusion. "A year since what?"

Kai suddenly seemed sheepish now, a rare look on him as he avoided direct eye contact with her and began glancing around the kitchen. "Since we've been together...or not together, I don't know. It's been a year and I still don't know what this is." He said, gesturing between the two of them. "You've only told your friends about us a couple of months ago and that's because I showed up out of nowhere to beat Damon's face in when he touched your hip and then you sort of had to and we had that super awkward meeting with Caroline-"

"I remember." She interrupted with a groan as she let her hands fall. "Kai, I thought we weren't using labels? Just...having fun."

"For over a year?" He asked skeptically. "Bonnie, I practically have a fucking drawer in your room. I have a toothbrush here for Christ sakes! And you still can't say it out loud?"

"Say what out loud?" She asked, once again becoming frustrated. "You want me to go around announcing to all of Mystic Falls that you're my boyfriend?"

"That'd be nice, yes. Maybe then Damon would get the hint and I could stop trying to melt his face off with pumpkin spice. I like that drink but I hate him more."

Bonnie scoffed at his ridiculousness. "We're not in high school, Kai. Jesus. What next? You want me to wear your letterman's jacket?" She snickered, despite seeing the hard look enter his eyes at her mocking. To spite him further she wrapped her arms around his neck and looked up at him with half lids, feeling the affects of the wine finally. "I'll make a huge announcement, how about that?"

"Bonnie..." He warned, his voice low and menacing as he narrowed his eyes at her. "Cut it out. You're not funny. I'm trying to be serious here. You know how hard that is for me." He tried to remove her hands but she clenched them tighter together, keeping her hold on him as she brought her face closer to his, giggling.

"Oh, I know! It'll be at the next Founder's Day, does that sound good?"

"Bonnie, I'm serious."

"I'll get up on stage in front of everybody and tell them that I, Bonnie Bennett and am in love with Kai Parker and to prove my love I'll eat an entire pie whole-"

Kai stilled suddenly underneath her hold on him. "What?"

She chuckled. "Okay, maybe not a whole pie. You know how sick I get. But how about half? Or is that too little?"

He was suddenly giving her an intense look as he leaned in closer and his eyes searched hers. "Say that again." He whispered, sounding breathless.

Bonnie was confused. Wine did that to her. "I'll eat half a pie?"

"N-No." He shook his head quickly. "Before that."

Realizing what he meant and what she had said, Bonnie sucked in a breath of air, unable to find the courage to say it again, especially seeing as she hadn't meant to. It was true though, wasn't it? It'd been true for awhile now...Of course it'd take a glass of wine and a heated argument with Kai to make her realize it.

"Kai..." She said warily, trying to back away from him and retrieve her arms from around his neck.

He stopped her, keeping her hands in place and moving closer so that their foreheads were touching. She was breathing in each breath he exhaled and staring into the grey-blue of his eyes as they pleaded with her. "Bonnie," He whispered. "Please. I need to hear it again."

Finding the courage in his intense stare, she took a deep breath and refused to break eye contact as she whispered back to him, "I love you." Trying the words out for the first time to him on her lips. She found that she liked it.

He closed his eyes and let out a breath of air, almost one of relief as his shoulders sagged and he held her closer. "Again."

Bonnie chuckled nervously. The first time had been difficult enough. "Kai, I think-"

"Bonnie."

Swallowing, she stared at his closed eyes, finding that it was easier when he wasn't looking at her like she was the entirety of his world. Which at times it seemed liked she was. Moving back some hair away from his forehead, she repeated herself, slightly louder this time. "I love you, Kai."

He let out a small moan as he moved his body against hers, pressing his chest flat against her own so that she could feel the rapid beating of his heart against his chest. Then he was grinding his hips and she felt his erection straining against his jeans and touching her stomach. She opened her mouth in a silent gasp at the feel of him so hard from her words. And to know that she'd done that to him alone was turning her on. She gripped the back of his head to fist some of his hair in her hand as he continued to move against her, panting.

"I love you." She sighed breathlessly again. "So much. Kai, I-"

As if he couldn't handle to hear it anymore he was crushing his mouth against hers, swallowing her words and taking the air from her all at once. It felt like a frenzy after that as their mouths were fused together, breathing in each other's air and touching each other's body anyway they could. Kai was gripping her ass firmly with both hands and lifting her off the ground seamlessly and placing her onto the counter so that he could continue to kiss her with her legs wrapped around his waist. Hands on her neck he yanked her closer to allow his tongue better access to her mouth. She opened willingly, moaning into his mouth as she began to eagerly struggle to get him out his sweater, impatiently brushing it off of his shoulders.

He was smiling against her lips as he began having to assist her as the sweater had gotten tangled around his wrists towards the end. "I'm holding you to your word." He breathed out, tossing his sweater across the kitchen. "Founder's Day. Half a pie. Damon, front row center to witness it."

He stripped her of her shirt and tossed it with his sweater so that she was in nothing but her lacy, black bra and short denim shorts she'd put on for the club as she stared at him as he ran his finger between her breasts, his eyes fixated on the trail he made. Bonnie found that she was breathing hard, still struggling to make sense of all that had just happened. Shivers ran down her spine as his finger traveled all the way down her stomach to the beginning of her shorts where he stopped and glanced up at her questioningly.

She struggled to find her voice. "I...I can't completely belong to anyone, Kai." She whispered. "Not yet."

"That's fine." He whispered back, as if hearing her declare her love to him was suddenly all he'd ever needed. Some reassurance. He placed soft lips against her neck so that her eyes rolled back, his finger still lingering near her waistband. "But I belong to you." Moving his head upward and catching the surprised look in her eyes, he forced her to keep eye contact as he placed a hand on the back of her head. "I always have."

Realizing that that was Kai's own way of returning his affections, she was once again grabbing him by the back of his head and pushing him towards her so that their lips collided and the frenzy and tossing of clothes continued.
