This takes place during the episode that Sybil makes Bonnie choose between Damon and Enzo. Just the moment that she choose Enzo will be written into this story. However from there will be my own version of what happens in Season 8. Hope that you enjoy.
BREAK BREAK BREAK BREAK
Bonnie Bennett stood there and watched horrified as the two most important men in her life fought against each other. Her best friend, Damon in which her relationship with him was currently strained and had been ever since he returned from desiccating himself. He was the man who she cared about more than anything in the world for and her everything. The one that she had grown so attached to that she felt this deep love and connection to. And perhaps was even in love with him before he desiccated himself, maybe she was still in love. But, it was something that she refused to let herself get into since his return. She was still angry and hurt towards him for leaving her behind to go and get into that coffin, because of that they hadn't been close since he came back. Mostly due to her pushing him away and closing herself off to him.
Then there was Enzo, the man that she had turned to during her pain over Damon leaving. She had no one else and Enzo was there to take her in. She had been with him for three years, had grown to care about him a lot, loved him in a way. Loved him for how he was there to prevent her from being alone, desperate not to be abandoned and loved by someone. She got with him convincing herself that he could make her happy, that she could move on with her life with him and not be stuck on Damon. She took the love that Enzo had to offer, in return giving the British vampire what she could. Took his love, because just living the rest of her life knowing that she wasn't enough to make Damon stay was too painful for her.
The more that she missed and thought about Damon, the more that she tried to put herself into her relationship with Enzo and focus on Enzo. She had love for Enzo, ignoring the part in her heart where it told her that it wasn't nearly on the same level that she loved Damon as. That her love for Damon was hundreds times stronger than what she felt for Enzo. That her heart truly was with Damon and that Enzo was just a second place thing that she settled on. However, she ignored those voices in her head and her heart, pretending otherwise. Drowning herself in Enzo whenever she could, clinging to him, because having him was better than being alone.
Now here she was being forced to choose out of the pettiness and cruelness of Sybil.
"What are you waiting for, Bonnie? Choose which one will live, which will die or suffer." Sybil demanded.
For a moment, Bonnie struggled not being able to make a decision. She really didn't want to lose either. Even though her heart kept urging her to pick Damon.
The two men kept fighting, Damon gaining the upperhand and preparing to rip out the heart of Enzo.
"Choose, Bonnie. Time is running out." Sybil impatiently stated.
Bonnie could see that Damon was seconds away from killing Enzo. Her heart told her to pick Damon, made her want to pick him. But, then there was another part that saw that Enzo was just a short time away from dying. Enzo had been the one that she was around for three years, the one that she had put everything into, in an attempt to move on with her life. Her heart told her that she didn't love him as much as she did Damon, but she believed that Enzo wouldn't abandon her, since Enzo himself had a life of being rejected and latched onto Bonnie when it could. They were together because of the two of them not wanting to be alone.
Enzo had been like a security blanket, the one that she used to convince herself that she had a sure thing with. No matter what she felt for Damon, her relationship with him was at a unsure place at the time. It was strained and she had pushed him away not only because she was still hurt over what he did, but also because she was afraid that if she opened herself up to Damon again that he would find a way to leave her again. Leaving her once again heartbroken.
That was why she closed her eyes and reluctantly and painfully made the decision, "I choose Enzo."
Sybil was somewhat taken aback. "What, are you sure?"
Swallowing, Bonnie responded. "Yes."
Damon heard her choice and turned to her wide eyed. "No, Bonnie don't do this to me."
"I'm sorry, Damon but I made by choice." Bonnie opened her eyes and looked at him with sympathy.
"I need you to choose me. Please change your mind, please." Damon pleaded.
"I have to choose Enzo." Bonnie returned to him, she hated having to make that decision.
Enzo smirked in a gloating fashion towards Damon like he had gained some sort of victory over him.
And at that moment Damon felt his world come crashing down. The main thing that kept him going since Sybil had overtaken him, was the hope and belief that he could gain Bonnie Bennett back into his life and that she would forgive him one day, that they could be close again. Despite the fact that so far she had rejected all of his attempts to regain her trust, to get her to find it in her heart to forgive him. He truly wished for the day when she would find it in her heart to forgive him, accepting him back into her life.
His feelings of affection and admiration towards her were more than words could ever say. He cared for he deeply, he loved her deeply, his love for her was deeper than any ocean on earth. He had known for a while that he loved her and just how strong that, that love was. However, it wasn't until he returned from his desiccation that the feeling came upon him that he had loved Bonnie Bennett, not just as a best friend, but perhaps even something more than that. That dawned on him when he saw her with Enzo and how bothered he was by that. How he wished that he would get to be her boyfriend, lover instead. Made him wonder if the two of them would have fallen in love and been together right now if it hadn't been for him deciding to put himself into that coffin.
Bonnie was the last strand, the last anchor holding him together. When they bonded in 1994 he figured that nothing would ever be able to break that bond. Until he returned to see just how angry, hurt that Bonnie was, in the fact that she was so distant and aloof with him. Still he always held into hope, until at this very moment when she had chosen Enzo over him. That was when he felt emotionally crushed, emotionally lost, and heartbroken all rolled into one. It wasn't the first time that a woman had hurt him. Katherine, Elena did before. Yet those felt like nothing compared to the amount of heartbreak that he felt now.
Shaking her head, rolling her eyes. Sybil ordered. "You heard her, now you have to let Enzo go."
Feeling defeated and rejected, Damon released Enzo from his grasp taking a step back.
Stumbling to his feet Enzo grasped for air.
Damon eyed Bonnie with that heartbroken expression on his face.
And seeing that look on his face made Bonnie feel hurt, because she knew that she had hurt him but felt like she had no other choice. She just had to pick Enzo because he was her boyfriend. That though couldn't stop her from feeling bad at the decision that she had made, feeling sorry for the Salvatore vampire.
"Damn that's gotta hurt, Damon. But, you lost and your life is now mine." Sybil tsked. "You put all of your faith and feelings into Bonnie, just for her to turn her back on you just like that. As if you are nothing to her."
Sybil's words put the salt in the wound of an already emotionally, wounded Damon, who kept looking at Bonnie. Seeing this Bonnie felt guilty and had to divert her eyes because she couldn't stand to see that on his face, knowing that she had put it there.
"Now that your fate is sealed and that you are still under my control." Sybil said towards Damon. "I need you to do something for me, I need you to kill Bonnie."
In anger Bonnie turned to Sybil. "What?"
Sybil told Bonnie. "I don't need you around any longer, dear you have been a thorn in my side, preventing from reaching the full potential of my goals. You'll interfere too much and although it was fun having you around to toy with, I no longer need you. The solution to making sure that I have full power is to get rid of you."
The Bennett witch glared with fire towards Sybil.
"As I said, Damon, kill her, kill her now." Sybil demanded.
Damon knew that no matter how strongly that he felt for Bonnie that he was still under Sybil's control. He was made to do certain things at times, even if he didn't want to. That's why he told Bonnie. "I'll give you a head start, you better run."
Bonnie heard his serious tone, knowing that he meant what he said, she took off and ran towards the exit of the building.
Damon waited for about twenty seconds and then started to give chase.
Despite the situation and Bonnie being his girlfriend, Enzo just stood, watching doing nothing as Damon chased Bonnie, still too under Sybil's control.
She ran as fast as she could exiting the building, then spotted her car, running towards it in the hopes of getting the hell out of there. She ran for her life, almost making it to her car before running into the solid wall of Damon's chest.
For a minute, Damon just stood there watching her to see what next move that she would make.
Bonnie tried to read how he was feeling, but the hurt that she had seen there right after she had picked Enzo, was now replaced by a blank, cool expression and she couldn't really tell what he was thinking or feeling at the moment.
WIth Sybil's orders swimming in his head, he grabbed her by the shoulders, thinking about just how he was suppose to go about killing her.
Knowing that if she didn't say something that she might soon end up dead at the hands of Damon, Bonnie opened her mouth to say. "Don't do this, Damon. I know that you don't really want to."
He only narrowed his eyes at her.
Pressing the terror that she felt to the side, Bonnie went on. "I know that the real you is there inside. You have to fight this, you can't let her win. I know you."
For a few long minutes, Damon just stood there holding her shoulder's with Sybil's voice in his head, demanding that he kill Bonnie. But despite Sybil's orders he just couldn't bring itself in his heart to do it. He knew that he would never forgive himself if he had killed her, if her ever did get the chance to break Sybil's control over him.
Letting her go he stepped to the side. "Leave, before I lose control of myself."
Bonnie made a move towards her car and then hesitated, looking back at him and worried at his state.
Damon pointed towards the car. "I said leave, now."
Seeing that perhaps she shouldn't press her luck Bonnie got into her car, shutting the door and stated in quickly driving off.
Damon watched until her car disappeared out of sight.
BREAK BREAK BREAK BREAK
Back inside of the building Sybil waited for Damon to return. She had sent Enzo off into another room and now was eager to found out how Damon followed through on her command to end Bonnie's life.
Soon Damon entered into the building. Sybil couldn't help but notice the expression on his face, the one that he had on earlier right after Bonnie didn't pick him.
"Aw, you look like a dejected puppy. Still stinging from the rejection that Bonnie gave you just now." Sybil nearly mocked.
Damon was silent on that comment.
Sybil sighed. "At least tell me that you made her pay for picking another man over you. She's dead right? How did you kill her?"
"No." Damon replied in a rough voice.
"What do you mean No?" Sybil blinked.
"Meaning that Bonnie isn't dead, I didn't kill her." Damon explained.
"So, she is still alive." Sybil was irritated by the thought.
Damon admitted. "Yes, very much alive."
Sybil scowled. "You ignored my commands that you kill her."
Damon nodded. "I did."
"You're suppose to do what I tell you to do. How dare you disobey my orders." Sybil raised her voice.
"Because." Damon mumbled.
"Because? Tell me why." Sybil pushed.
Damon raised his own voice. "Because, I love her."
Hearing him say that made Sybil feel anger mixed in with jealously toward Bonnie and how Damon felt about the witch. "That's why you couldn't bring yourself to kill her, huh. Because of your love for her."
"You heard me." Damon confessed.
Giving a humorless, bitter laugh Sybil went on. "Even after she has rejected you, picking for Enzo to live over you. Dooming your life to me, you are still so loyal and devoted to her. I would almost be impressed at the impact that she has on you. But, right now it makes you look quite pathetic."
The blue eyed vampire shook his head. "Call it what you may, but I'm not going to kill her for you or anyone. No matter how much you want me too."
"Fine then." Sybil gathered up her angry. "If you are too soft to do it, I guess I will have to find other creative ways for something or someone to end her life."
That send Damon into his natural protective mode over Bonnie. "You can't do that, you can't kill her."
Sybil arched a brow, "I can't do that? Really, you are under my control. What in the world makes you think that you have the power to prevent me from killing Bonnie?"
At that moment Damon thought and believed that he had lost out on regaining his friendship with Bonnie, and lost out on a chance of love with her because she wanted nothing to do with him. She had chosen Enzo, and Damon thought that she hated him. It crushed him to realize that he would never get a chance to be close to Bonnie's heart again. But, as he said before he could live with Bonnie hating him as long as she got to live.
If Bonnie died, then he would be devastated in a way that he couldn't recover from. That was why he made the decision to desiccate in the first place to keep her alive. He would do anything just so as long as Bonnie got to live, that's why he was about to do what he was what he was about to do.
"I'll make you a deal." Damon told her.
"A Deal?" Sybil repeated.
"In exchange for keeping Bonnie alive and safe from your hands." Damon added.
Sybil was intrigued. "Hmmm, what does this deal include?"
Damon commented. "You want me."
Sybil returned. "What does that mean? I already have you under my control."
Damon emphasised. "No, you truly want me, not in the way that I am under your control now. You want my loyalty, to be devoted to you. Stuck on you. That's why you have a problem with the relationship that I have with Bon-Bon. You wish that I felt the things for you that I feel for her."
"How do you know that?: Sybil questioned.
"I know that, there is no need for you to deny it." Damon challenged.
"Yes, I would love to have your devotion. A man like you at my every beck and call, would be a sweet dream." Sybil confessed. "Go on then with this deal of yours and I might be interested."
"I'll give you my lifetime of devotion. I'll be loyal to you, and I'll serve you, giving anything that you want. You'll get me in the way that you truly want me." Damon stated.
Sybil's eyes brightened. "I do love the sound of that…."
Damon interrupted, tone icy. "However, that's if and only if in return that Bonnie is safe from you. Meaning that you won't ever, ever kill her or hurt her physically. The only way that I will devote my life to you is if you are willing to spare hers."
Sybil was taken aback. "You're willing to hand your life over to me, just to insure that I don't kill Bonnie?"
"Yes, I am." Damon said without hesitation.
"I'm partly admired by how far you are willing to go for her. It's the exact reason why you have be intrigued to see if you are willing to do the same for me." Sybil stated.
Cocking his head to the side Damon wondered. "Does that mean that you will take her deal, that you promise to never make an attempt to physically harm Bonnie, as long as I promise my lifetime to serving you?"
Pacing around for a minute, Sybil turned back to him. "How do I know that you aren't trying to fool me? That this isn't just a distraction for you to get me off of her back, while you really plan on not devoting yourself as you say."
Damon gestured. "I'll do anything to convince you that I'm serious about this deal, as long as you follow through with my request."
"A deal like you are speaking of would have to be sealed to make sure that it's locked tight. Such as a contract, a magical contract signed in our blood.." Sybil tested.
"Fine, if that is what it takes." Damon muttered.
"You do understand what a contract sealed it blood means don't you. As soon as it is signed, it's guaranteed, unbreakable with no loopholes. There is no way that you or I could get out of it." Sybil questioned.
"I know damn well what signing in blood would mean. That if either of us breaks it, that there will be hell to pay. Whoever breaks it first, will be the first one who has to pay a price." Damon stated.
Sybil gave a nod. "As long as you understand what it means before you get into it."
Damon pushed. "Do you want to make the deal or not?"
Sybil said. "Of course I'll make the deal, it's too in my favor not to make the deal. You're giving me everything that I want, so let's discuss what will be drawn up in this contract, shall we."
Damon returned. "We shall."
"You do what you said that you would do, promise your lifetime to serving me. Giving your life to being devoted and loyal to me, allowing me to shape you in the way that I want to in order to serve my purposes. I'll be the only one in your life that you will care about devoting yourself to and there will be no one else. For as long as you live you'll be loyal to me and you must never, ever leave my side." Sybil went on.
"You must forever be with me. If you attempt to leave me, then the deal is broken and I get to end Bonnie's life and kill her if you leave." Sybil added.
"Alright, I'll accept that part of the contract, now let's talk about mine. I won't leave your side for as long as you promise not to kill Bonnie. I you leave her alone, then I'll give you whether you desire." Damon let her know.
That brought a conquering smile to Sybil's lips.
"But." Damon pointed a finger. "If you in any way, shape, or form attempt to kill Bonnie, then the contract is broken. If you harm her, hurt her physically in anyway, so as much touch a hair on her precious had then the contract is broken. And my punishment to you is that I get to kill you."
The way that he said kill spent a chill down Sybil's spine to let her now she how sincere that he was. It left no doubt in her mind that he would kill her if she hurt Bonnie, but she brushed that chill to the side. "You won't have to worry about me killing Bonnie, I won't mess with her anymore. Once I get you that is."
Damon rubbed at the back of his neck. "And just to throw in something a little extra with this deal."
Sybil looked at him. "What else do you want."
"For you to let Enzo go." Damon took a breath.
"Let him go, why?"
"For Bonnie, I guess." Damon wasn't believing the own words that came out of his mouth.
"For Bonnie? You love her, but are willing to let Enzo go so that they can be together." Sybil was taken aback again.
Waving a hand, Damon went. "I don't like the idea of them together at all. I don't like it, but she says that he makes her happy and the she loves him. So for her sake you release him and he can return to her."
Sybil shook her head. "That's mighty noble of you, Damon. Not many men would be willing give a break to another man, so that he could be with the woman that they loved. Some men would do anything to stop that and yet you…."
Damon grew impatient. "Will you release Enzo or not."
Sybil replied. "I'll release Enzo, it's not like I need him now anyway, he just became useless to me now that I can get everything that I want from you."
"Fine, then do that." Damon cooly said.
"Now since you threw something else in, I want to add something to the contract as well." Sybil mentioned.
Wondering what else she had to add Damon listened.
"I want to erase your memories, completely of Bonnie Bennett." Sybil stated.
"What? Why would you want to do that." Damon hated that idea.
"It's simple. As long as you have your memories of her, it means that your feelings for her will still be there and you know what they say about the heart wanting what it wants." Sybil hinted.
"I just said that I would promise my loyalty and devotion to you. Why would I need my memories of Bonnie wiped to do that." Damon wished to know.
Once more, Sybil rolled her eyes. "No doubt that the contract will be signed in blood, all just about guaranteeing your service to me. Still even with that I can't fully trust that your feelings for that witch won't throw a little wrench into the deal. As long as your memories of there of her you'll be tempted to follow your heart and run into her arms."
The Eldest Salvatore knew that Sybil had a point. It was his feelings for the Bennett witch after all that prevented him from killing her, despite Sybil demanding that he did so.
"And I won't risk losing you to her. If you left me for her, that would break the contract allowing me to kill her, you wouldn't want your feelings for her be the reason why she dies now would you." Sybil teased.
"No." Damon growled.
"That's why you will agree to have your memories wiped away, and your feelings for her along with them." Sybil demanded. "Or else there will be no deal."
The thought of forgetting Bonnie was like a punch to the gut, he felt like his memories of the good times with her, and his feelings for her were only one of the few positive things that he had going in his life right now. But, he agree. "I hate what's about to happen. Take my memories away of her….if that's going to keep her alive."
Delighted, Sybil rubbed her hands together. "Then it's done, time to get that contract up so that we can sign it with our blood."
Damon felt sad and defeated, but told himself that it was worth it because Bonnie would be alive. Even if he wouldn't remember her.
Sybil saw the expression on his face. "Don't be so sad about forgetting about her, Damon. Soon she'll be wiped away from your memory and you'll eventually feel nothing for her."
BREAK BREAK BREAK BREAK
Bonnie had fled back to the cabin that she had shared with Enzo and that's where she had been for the last couple of hours. With a million thoughts running through her mind. About the two men she had to choose between earlier, she had no idea where Enzo was. And although she wondered about the whereabouts of her boyfriend, her thoughts were leaning more towards Damon at the moment.
She felt conflicting feelings, while she was glad that Enzo was alive and not killed by Damon, there was that other part of her that felt guilty about Damon. It weighed her down more and more with each passing minute, as the look of hurt on his face still was fresh in her mind. It made her feel awful.
Now she was very concerned about Damon and what her choice would do to him. Would Sybil decide to hurt him, because she had picked Enzo? What if Sybil decided to kill Damon at some point as punishment? All of these questions ran through her mind. She knew deep down that her choice had doomed Damon to something that wasn't good. She just couldn't stand Damon getting hurt because of it.
Suddenly, someone came through the door of the cabin breaking into her thoughts. Bonnie turned to see who it was and was surprised to see that it was Enzo. "Enzo?"
Enzo looked over at her with a grin. "Hello, love."
Bonnie asked. "Why are you here?"
"Now, that's not how I thought that you would greet me, after the time that we have been apart." Enzo joked.
Bonnie shook her head. "I mean, I thought that Sybil still had you."
Enzo said. "She did, but you won't believe what happened. Sybil let me go."
Bonnie asked. "Why did she let you go."
"Don't know, she didn't tell me why. She just said that she released me and that I no longer had to be under her control." Enzo responded.
"Wow, that's unexpected." Was all that Bonnie could say.
"I don't care what the reason, I'm just happy that she did so. Now that she did, I can finally get back to who I wanted to and that's you. This is great, don't you agree." Enzo commented.
She forced a smile into her face. "Yeah, it's great, I'm glad that you are back."
Enzo's grin grew wider. "That means that you and I can be together again, picking up right where we left off, love."
"Right, we can be together again." Bonnie said trying to tell herself that she needed to be happy that her boyfriend was back.
The British vampire just walked over to Bonnie wrapping her arms around her in a hug.
Bonnie hugged him back.
"By the way, you have no idea how grateful that I am that you picked me." Enzo said into her ear.
He couldn't see the expression on Bonnie's face, she she had her head on his shoulder, facing away from his face. That forced smile was gone, replaced by a expression of sadness as she once again thought about Damon.
BREAK BREAK BREAK BREAK
The following four days past and Bonnie tried to get back into coupledom with Enzo after she was reunited with him. However, she couldn't put her focus completely into that. Her mind was filled with Damon. Each passing day without seeing him, or knowing of his fate had her concerned, worried out of her mind for him. She wondered how he was doing, and what Sybil might have done with him. She just couldn't go on, until she knew that he was okay.
Telling Enzo that she wanted to go out and ran an error, she left him at the cabin while she went out and drove into the town of Mystic Falls. But, she really wanted to do it to get away and clear her head. She was walking downtown when she spotted him, it was Damon standing on the sidewalk with his back turned to her.
Bonnie was relieved to see that at least physically he seemed to be fine enough, at least to be still alive. Before she could stop herself she found herself approaching him. "Damon."
Slowly, Damon turned to see who called out his name, facing her.
"I….uh." She paused as to what to say. "Just wanted to check up on you, I haven't seen you in days."
The blue eyed vampire gave her the look over. "I'm sorry, but do I know you?"
Bonnie shook her head, thinking that he was joking at first. "Of course you know me, Damon."
"I have never seen your face once in my life, so how is it that you know my name?" Damon questioned her.
"Oh, come on, stop messing around." Bonnie waved a hand.
But, Damon just gave her a emotionless expression.
This made Bonnie furrow her brow. "You're not being serious."
"I am being serious." Damon said expression changing to confused. "I don't know who you are, who are you and why are you talking to me."
"I'm Bonnie, you know Bonnie Bennett. I was…..am your best friend. We're friends." Bonnie insisted, wondering what was up with him.
"I don't recall anyone named Bonnie Bennett, We can't be friends as I've never met you a day in my life." Damon pinched the bridge of his nose.
Bonnie swallowed. "I get it, this is your way of getting back at me for the choice that you made the other day isn't it."
Damon arched a brow. "I don't know what choice you are talking about, you must have me mistaken for another man, because you have the wrong guy here."
That's why she saw that Damon was being serious, he really did look like he had no idea who she was. Bonnie could sense that something wasn't quite right with this picture. "Are you saying that you really don't know me?"
"I don't." Damon confirmed.
Bonnie could really see now that something was off about him, he wasn't acting like the Damon that she was used to, or his usual self. "What's wrong with you?"
"What's wrong we me is that you are telling me that I know you and I don't, lady. So, just go away." Damon grew annoyed with her.
"I'm not going away until I find out what is going on with you. This is important to your life." Bonnie told him.
"The only thing that is important to my life is this one woman. Her name is Sybil and there is no one else for me." Damon stated.
"Sybil? Are you kidding me?" Bonnie was taken aback by what he had said.
Before Damon could say something else, Sybil stepped outside of a shop and saw the two of them. She came up and joined next to Damon.
Sybil said. "Ah, Damon I see that you waited out here for me just as I requested."
Damon glanced at Sybil. "Yes, I did."
"Listen go and wait in the car for me, I'll be right there in a minute." Sybil said.
"Yes, my queen." Damon told her in an almost robotic voice.
Hearing him call Sybil a 'queen' had Bonnie's senses that something was wrong with Damon growing.
Turning Damon walked away towards the car, away from the two women.
Then Sybil turned to Bonnie with a satisfied look on her face. "Oh, Bonnie so disappointed to see you alive."
Bonnie turned her attention to Sybil. "What in the hell did you to him?"
Sybil batted her eyelashes, pretending as if she was innocent. "Why do you think that I did something to him?"
"He's acting worse than he did before, like he doesn't remember me. I know that you did something." Bonnie accused.
"Well, there's no use in denying it. What I did was just have Damon turn his life over completely to me. His mind is mine to tell him what I want him to do, and he is with me to serve everything that I ever need or want. I can mould him into the man that I want him to be." Sybil confessed.
"You're brainwashing him." Bonnie grew upset with the thought.
"Now, I don't like the term brainwashing." Sybil returned.
Bonnie retorted. "How did you get inside of his head to do it, washing away his mind and getting him to call you your queen."
Sybil looked at her. "If you really must now, I accomplished doing what I did, because Damon allowed me to, this was all his idea."
Bonnie scoffed. "Bullshit, Damon would never volunteeringly allow you to take him and turn him into your robot to serve you."
Sybil shrugged. "But that's what he did, Dear."
"I don't believe you. Why would it be Damon's idea to allow you to do that to him." Bonnie folded her arms across her chest.
"For you if you really must know." Sybil sighed.
"For me?" Bonnie frowned.
Taking a dramatic breath, Sybil explained. "I was going to find another way to have you killed, since Damon couldn't follow through on my orders to do so. I let him know that there would be other ways where I would kill you, but Damon he didn't want to see me end your life. He offered something to me for exchange in making sure that I don't make an attempt on you."
Bonnie said nothing, waiting for Sybil to tell her more.
Sybil went on. "Damon said that if I promised not to try to kill or harm you, that he would give me what I really wanted and that was him. He agreed to serve me, be devoted and loyal to me for the rest of his life to keep you alive. The idea was too good for me to pass up, so I agreed. We signed a contract sealing it in blood, and now what you see is the Damon that is a result of that."
"He gave you his life and mind to serve you, to spare my life?" Bonnie nearly stuttered as it impacted her.
"You get it now." Sybil directed. "That's exactly what the man did. He was that desperate to keep you alive. How stupid can you be, Bonnie that man worshipped the very ground that you walked on, yet you pushed him away. Are you really that clueless to see how deeply that he felt for you, because I certainly could. If I had a man like Damon Salvatore giving me all of that affection and attention I would jump on him. Not you do, you acted like you preferred Enzo."
Learning about what Damon had did for her warmed Bonnie in her heart, the thought of him sacrificing himself in a way so that she would remain alive had her feelings all sorts of strong, positive feelings for the man. And knowing that he risked himself for her, overwhelmed her. Ever since he had desiccated himself, leaving her behind it made her doubt herself.
Doubt herself in the fact that she before had thought that Damon cared about her. One of the things that had hurt her so much when he choose to do that, was that it made her doubt that he cared about her as much as she did him. She didn't think that she meant that much to him because of that. But, hearing about what he did from Sybil made her re evaluate those thoughts and feelings.
"To me you made the wrong choice in picking Enzo, I mean Enzo is okay. But, compared to Damon, he's not even on the same level as Damon is. Damon makes for a far more interesting subject, a better man in every way. But, I'm glad that you picked Enzo, because it allows me to be in the position where I am today. You don't deserve Damon being devoted to you, so devoted that releasing Enzo was his idea." Sybil finished.
Bonnie was completely caught off guard by this. "Damon told you to release Enzo?"
Sybil admitted. "Right, it was another thing that he did for the sake of you. I guess he believed that Enzo was what you wanted, so he did that because he thought that it would make you happy. Surprises me too, because Damon clearly was bothered by you and Enzo being together, you could see it in his eyes, like he wanted to beat Enzo senseless whenever Enzo discussed the two of you being involved. You were to blind to see it perhaps. But that just confirms to me more that you made the wrong choice.
The fact that Damon did something so selfless for her, having her boyfriend release, just seemed to make the love that she had hidden in her heart for Damon bloom all the more. She was taken aback and again warmed by how far that he had went just for her.
"Damon made that deal, right before he signed the contract, and before I wiped his memories of you away. You shouldn't have a man like that wrapped around your finger like that. But, he's all mine now and his devotion will be to me." Sybil gloated.
"You have no right to back him into a corner like that and take this memories away." Bonnie reacted furious.
"Don't blame me, you had your chance. I gave you a chance on who to pick, your decision was Enzo. You're the one who put Damon in the current fate that he is in, if you want to blame anyone look at yourself." Sybil said back.
Bonnie became more furious. "You put me on the spot to make that cruel decision, and knew what you were doing when you did that. I was forced into , just because I didn't want Enzo to die, doesn't mean that I'm okay with Damon being hurt and used by you, because I'm not. I didn't want to have to decide what I did."
Sybil gestured. "But you did, now Damon is mine and he belongs to me. You have Enzo be happy with that at least. And I have Damon, I think that it's best for all parties involved if we just settled for how it is."
Bonnie glared Sybil. "The hell with settling. You're going to pay for this."
Sybil just laughed, mocking Bonnie.
"You won't get away with this, Sybil." Bonnie told her through gritted teeth.
"I already have." Sybil smirked. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I have my guy waiting for me back in the car."
An upset, pissed off Bonnie watched as Sybil walked away. Now that she knew the truth about what happened to Damon, she just wondered what she could do about it and if there was anything that she could do to fix it.
BREAK BREAK BREAK BREAK
I always thought that the show should have went more in depth into Bonnie's feelings after she choose Enzo, to show how it impacted her and Damon. And the fallout from that, instead of having her and Damon not interact for most of the season smh. I apologize for any spelling or grammar errors that I made. Thanks for reading.
