"Like what you see Bonbon?" Blue eyes gape and guzzle her up.
"Damon, Salvatore?"
"In the flesh." He wiggles his eyebrows. "Literally."
"Umm, wow. This is surprising. You know what, actually it isn't." She says shaking her head looking at him in all of his naked glory.
"I look better in person, right?" He grins, he's sexy. God is he sexy.
Bonnie couldn't bear the thought of agreeing to his statement no matter how delectable he looked. Especially since she was fully clothed and absolutely jealous of Elena at this moment.
"We are just here to pick up Elena, and I guess she is busy so we'll be downstairs."
"Hey, I'm Damon," He reaches to shake Caroline's hand.
Returning the mannerism, "Caroline." She smiles.
"Bonbon, don't be mad at me."
"Mad? No way. Why would I be?"
"I don't know you haven't returned my emails in a few weeks. Can I talk to you in private?" He pleads with a pouted lip. "Pretty Please?"
"How? Elena is in there, and this is a hallway?"
"Elena is not in here, and you guys can come in." The girls follow the semi-nude man into his hotel suite.
"Why would she have us meet her here?" Bonnie asked.
"She left and went to her room really quick. She said she'd be back."
Bonnie looks at the man in front of her and shakes her head. Damon grabs Bonnie's arm and leads her to his suite. When he gets inside he closes the door and locks it. "Bonbon, why do we ignore me now?" He pins her to the door with his arms placed on the wall on either side of her head. His face a mere foot from hers.
"Why are we talking in the third person?"
"Because, I feel as though we, need some answers, and this is a much more fun way of getting them." He looks in her eyes with a sexy glare she has never seen before and his sideways smirk softens her. Not that his abs and chest in their nude form didn't help, but his charm was obnoxiously endearing.
"What do we need to discuss Damon Salvatore?"
"So informal sweetheart. Come on, we have been friends a while now, right?"
"Friends? I mean we…" She could not even deny it. They became friends through their emails. She helped him through things with both Elena and Andie, and even vented about Enzo to him. All through emails, they have become very good friends. "Sure we can be considered friends."
"Exactly, in some ways you have become the closest friend I have, because I have confided in you about things I don't confide to anyone about."
"What is the point in all of this Mr. Salvatore?"
"Ouch, not 'D' or even a 'Damon' anymore?" Bonnie closely watched his perfectly pink lips as he speaks.
"You are easily detoured from the mission at hand. You need me to help you with something?" She looks his body up and down.
"Wow, I didn't know you were such a big eye flirt, Bonbon. I mean Miss. Bennett."
"It's hard not to stare at a semi-naked man who has me pinned against the wall."
"I can more than pin you Miss Bennett." His flirting gets more forward. "I mean if you want me to." He closes his proximity on her face and allows his aquamarine eyes to drop her heart-shaped mouth.
Bonnie clears her throat, tries to stand upright, and straightens out her clear glasses. "What did you need Mr. Salvatore?"
"I think Elena is having second thoughts about marrying Liam. I really think she has deeper feelings for me than him, and maybe if somehow you can get any information out of her for me this weekend it would be great." Bonnie's heart rose rapidly and then suddenly sunk in her chest.
"So that is what you cornered me in this room for, with your naked body and your semi-erect penis rubbing against my inner thigh."
"The towel was a given, I just showered, and the erection, well that is your fault, for being so damn cute. And it is not a semi- it's pretty erect, but your crotch is blocking it's solute. Probably because it would rather be inside of you." HE gave a guilty smirk, after making her swallow her pride, and then ignore his flirting.
"You are the same jerk from four years ago. Hitting on me, and asking about my best friend."
"I did this before?"
"The day I met you, you told me I looked like a good time and you tried to get me to sleep with you."
"So, I obviously find you attractive."
"I was with my boyfriend at the time."
"Oh yeah, the little Gilbert asshole."
"Well, you apparently want to be a part of his family, so I wouldn't go on the hate wagon about him if I were you."
"Boy, I am glad you dumped, him. You were way too good for him. Who's it now, the Brit?"
"This isn't about me," She rolled her eyes. "This is about you and your misplaced love for a woman who can't keep it in her pants."
"This Brit, he is kind of an ass too, No?"
"He's not an ass. He's amazing. And we are amazing, and it is never going to be any of your business." She looks at him, licks her lips then looks away from him in a way to completely dismiss any attraction between the two.
Damon's arms are still enclosing Bonnie in a trap between he and the door. His aftershave is seeping into her nostrils, and his body smells like a fucking clean version of a porn. "You know I may not see you face to face on a regular basis. But I have been writing you for the past three years, and you write me back. Whether you like it or not we have become very good friends. Because of this, you probably have kept it a huge secret, because you want to convince yourself you have no concern for me and my feelings. But you do. I have plenty of emails to prove it. Stop acting like my opinion doesn't matter to you, because I know it does."
"I need you to move so that I can go about my day."
"God, why couldn't I have met you before falling for your best friend?"
"It wouldn't matter. I think that you can't handle a woman like me, I'm too passionate for a man like you."
"Off. Please. My intensity would scare you away." He says as they are nearly kissing their lips are just that close. "You have perfectly pouty lips, pretty lips. I just want to..." He moves in on Bonnie's pretty mouth and-
("Damonnnn") A voice calls from outside. He straightens up and tightens his towel, then walks out first, allowing Bonnie a few minutes behind him.
"Hey baby." He says kissing her.
"Where's Bonnie?"
"In the bathroom I guess, I don't know." He lied.
"Please get dressed, I don't like sharing your body in such a way." She says as she flips her hair behind her back and straightens out her skirt after he slaps her ass.
"Sure thing." He says as he walks away and on his way to the room he bumps into Bonnie and holds her a little too long around the waist. "We are not finished talking."
"I think we are." She says roughly removing his hands.
"Are you going to help me?"
She rolls her eyes at him. "Sure Mr. Salvatore. I'll talk to her." She leaves without even giving him a second glance. She in her Nikes and yoga clothes hops to Elena and hugs her.
"Bon, you look great, how do you stay so fit."
"Ahh, my personal trainer has catered to me for the past few months. He is amazing."
"Oh yeah. I never thought about having a trainer. How does it work?"
"You hire someone who will design a workout routine to your needs, and fitness goals and then they workout with you based on your availability. And my guy works out with me three times a week."
"Wow. Well, training does a body good." Elena says.
"Thanks."
Caroline chimes in, not to mention he is a hot piece of ass. Like a literally hottie. I have no idea why Bon hasn't jumped on that."
Jumped on what, Damon asks as he walks out. "I guess Bonnie has a really hot trainer and Caroline thinks Bonnie should ask him out."
"Absolutely not." Damon said, shocking the girls, except for Caroline. Who smiled on Bonnie's behalf.
"What? Why not?" Elena asked with a slight attitude.
"I mean..." He stumbled on his words. "I guess I am a little more old school. I think he should approach her."
"Yeah?" Elena said.
"Well, let's not discuss Bonnie's love life. Bonnie could use a couple of margaritas before she gets ready for tonight." Bonnie says.
"Talking in the third person are we?" He says laughing, and making her smile. "Nice meeting you ladies. He kisses them on the cheek. Miss Caroline. Miss Bonnie." His kiss lingers on her cheek. "Talk to you later," He whispers.
Bonnie and Caroline walk out before Elena, who takes a minute to say good bye to Damon. As soon as they get to the hallway near the elevator, "Seriously? Bonnie you guys could not have possibly eye fucked any more obviously."
"What? Were we obvious?"
"Well, yeah, to me, because I know the back story. Maybe not to Elena. But she had to have sensed something."
"Yea, well short lived, he just asked me to get info out of her?" Her disappointment wasn't everlasting, more like an 'oh well.'
"Well, he just doesn't realize it yet, but he is in love with you."
"Care, shut it. No more of your bright ideas. Off to Margaretville for a couple of hours, then back to the room to get ready for tonight."
Elena walks up and the girls spend the afternoon catching up.
~oOo~
They first all get mani/pedis and then they hit up Margaretville. Hours go by and they drink and talk and catch up.
"Sorry I didn't ask you both to be my brides maids."
"We'd be lying if we said it didn't hurt. But we understand you have this awesome new life and your friends are the ones who really get to help you plan it all, so it only makes sense." Caroline said.
"Yeah, well… everything has happened in a matter of a blur. I know Liam and I have been together for years, but, I don't know, I just am not sure I am ready to be tied down."
"This wouldn't have anything to do with that gorgeous man we just left in the hotel would it?" Caroline asked.
"Partially. I just- Damon isn't the only one." Elena admits.
"What?" Bonnie's gasp was only caught by Caroline.
"He isn't. I slept with Elijah a few times."
"Katherine's ex fiancé Elijah?" Bonnie asks.
"Yes. Well in all fairness, she left him. It's just, I am, always with Rebekah and he is her brother and things lead up to more than friends."
"What. About. Damon. Elena?" Bonnie grew serious.
"I don't know. I love him as a friend. Same with Elijah. But Liam, he has given me everything. Like….Everything."
"Elena, why are you getting married?"
"It's time. I am twenty-eight. I want kids and a family and to start doing things that involve one man and one man only."
"Okay, is that man Liam?" Caroline asks.
"Damon?" Bonnie asks.
"Elijah," She mumbled.
"What? You can't be serious; your sister will kill you." Bonnie said.
"I can't think about everyone else when it come to my happiness. I have done that for years." Elena says.
"What about Damon?"
"I don't know. I wish I could just keep Damon forever. He is perfect, he really is."
"But?"
"But, he is my boss, and he knows Liam, and I know that no matter what, he will be there. If things don't work out with Liam, or Elijah."
"This is beyond horrifying Elena. He doesn't deserve that." Bonnie said.
"Bonnie, seriously, what is the campaign for Damon. If you think he is so great, you date him." Elena says laughing. Caroline laughs with her.
"I agree, I think Damon and Bonnie would be a cute couple. They are both gorgeous." Caroline said.
"Oh, okay." Elena says sarcastically. "No offence, but Bonnie isn't Damon's type."
Bonnie's head turns sideways and her eyes squint in the lens of her glasses, "Oh, what is his type Elena?"
"Oh I didn't mean it in a negative way, it's just, he is kind of obsessed with me. I like the idea of having him there, because he is an amazing guy."
Bonnie gets quiet for a few minutes then speaks, "So, if he wanted something more serious, what would you say?"
"I don't know. I guess I can see myself with him. He was kind of clingy though."
"So just leave him to the side to suffer in silence waiting for you?"
Bonnie?" Elena looks to her friend strangely. "Do I need to know anything about you and Damon?"
"No. I Just asked because a couple of years ago you seemed hopelessly in love with him."
"Oh I was, then Liam and I got back together."
"Now you love Elijah? What will you tell Katherine?" Caroline asks.
"I will tell her that you can't help who you fall in love with. It isn't my fault she left him and didn't want to be who he needed."
"Well, would ya look at the time. We have to get ready? Let's take you back to your hotel and We will go back to our and meet up in about three hours?" Bonnie says after looking at her phone."
"Geez, yeah. I guess I should go back to the hotel. I will just get ready in Damon's room. Chances are I will be tugged all over the place tonight."
Parts of Bonnie felt overwhelmingly jealous Elena would go to Damon's room and use him for sex, then go hop in Liam's or Elijah's bed later. "Okay, let's go." Caroline could tell when Bonnie was bothered and covered it up. We are going to be in your Limo later? Right Elena?"
"For sure. Ya'll are my girl's from way back. I will make sure you are in my limo. "
"Okay, because we don't really know anyone else that is here but you. We barely know the rest of the wedding party."
"Girl's no worries. I got you." She promised.
Hours later they all meet up. Bonnie and Caroline took Cabs to get to the Aria and they wait inside of the Lobby. A large group of people have gathered and they feel out of place. They try pushing through the crowd to get to Elena and when they do they try holding on to her.
"Elena, we are in your Limo still, right?" Caroline asked, because the group of women surrounding Elena was far too large to fit in one cab and they had a feeling she didn't look out for them.
"Well, Haley did the seating arrangements, so I told her to make sure you were in my limo."
"Where is Haley?" Bonnie asked.
"Here she is. Haley the girls want to know what Limo they are in."
Haley checked her Phone. "You guys are in the very last limo." She said with a smirk.
"Bonnie didn't like how she said it and neither did Caroline. The last Limo? As if they were just thrown in at the tail end of the party. "Seriously Lena?"
"I am sorry. Come on you guys know I can't plan it all alone. Haley did the arrangements for the party limos. I apologize."
"So we have to worry about being drunk in a limo full of men we barely know? I just saw all men get in that limo." Caroline yelled.
"Sorry, hey they are all either family or wedding party, they won't hurt you?" Haley said.
"What's that matter? We don't know them. We came here for our BEST FRIEND." Caroline yelled. She and Bonnie looked to Elena for an out, and Elena just got into her Limo with her teeny tiny gold sequenced dress on.
"Fine." Bonnie looked to Elena, then Caroline. She grabbed Caroline's hand and said, "Let's go Care."
Everyone was in limos expect Bonnie and Caroline. They stood outside of the limo for a while and decide to catch a cab. "Whoa whoa, hey, what's the matter love?"
An English gentleman gets out and talks to the girls, "What the meaning of this? Why catch a cab when we are all set to head out in the limo?"
"No offense, but we don't know you, or all of those men in that limo. We would rather be safe than sorry."
"Hey we won't hurt you. I assure you. We just want to all have a good time in Vegas, no harm, no foul. We have some champagne in the limo and we are ready to enjoy the night. We don't bite I promise." This beautiful English gentleman, with his wicked grin, gave both Caroline and Bonnie tingly feelings.
"Come on Care we are already running late. Let's just take the limo there, we can always leave by cab if we want. But let's at least show up together."
"Fine Bon. But I am so pissed at Lena. I can't believe she didn't make arrangements or at least fight for us."
"We have three more nights in Vegas. This is just one. Let's fucking make the best of it. No Enzo, no Tyler. Just me and you bestie."
"Alright. Yeah. Fuck it!" Caroline says. They get into a limo and introduce themselves.
"Hey I am Bonnie and this is Caroline." She looks to the nice guy who spoke to her and Care. "I am Klaus, this is my brother Kol. Those are the Salvatore Brothers. Stefan and Damon." He said.
"Suddenly, things don't seem so bad after all." Caroline said to Bonnie.
"Hey bestie." Damon says to Bonnie. She rolls her eyes. Klaus invites Caroline to sit next to him and have a drink, and she ends up inevitably sandwiched between Stefan and Klaus.
Damon sits by Bonnie and proceeds to flirt shamelessly. Kol was never a man to run from a little competition. He joined in on the conversation and before you know, he was pouring shots to take with Bonnie and Damon.
