A/N: I'd like to thank everyone who has revieved/alerted/favourited this story, it really does mean a lot, I could write everyones name but you know who you are anyway…I'm glad that I have positive reviews, I actually had my concern whether it was too dark/depressive but it seems you lot didn't mind. lol

Since I have Chapter 2 ready, I am posting it, didn't find any need in delaying it.

I really hope you'll enjoy this chapter too.

Oh and thank you everyone for forgiving me for the very short chapter, hopefully this one is longer and will satisfy you.

*Taking a deep breath* I hope I will not disappoint anyone with the chap/story.

Oh and I forgot to write this the last time:

PS: I don't own The Vampire Diaries book series or TV Show.

Chapter 2 - Consequences

"Come again?" Damon asked, still having trouble believing what he's hearing.

"Kill me" Bonnie said once again, determined.

Determined for what? To die? Damon thought, getting a little bit annoyed.

"Be careful what you wish for little witch, it might just come true"

"That's what I'm asking for Damon" Bonnie replied.

"For me to kill you?" Damon still had trouble wrapping his head around this situation. Bonnie nodded.

"You want me to kill you? To rip open your throat and drain you dry, till your last drop"

Damon expected Bonnie to flinch, to run away, but all she did was shrug. Damon only came to a walk and maybe have a snack but he found himself face to face with a feast.

Damon was toying with the idea of actually killing the little witch. He remembered how her blood tasted from the incident with Emily. It was sweet and exciting, something fresh. He wouldn't have to make her suffer too, he wouldn't treat her to a slow death, like he usually did with others. He would make it easy for her, just snap her neck and drain her dry. Just the idea was making him crazy, turning his eyes crimson and fangs growing.

Damon took a deep breath and shut his eyes, willing his control to take over, to get back to normal. No, he couldn't do that. He couldn't kill the witch, that would be a death wish. Stefan will kill him, then Elena will make him come back to life only to kill him again. Plus killing her best friend wouldn't help him seduce Elena. No, killing her would definitely be a death wish, then again it wasn't his fault that the witch had a death wish of her own.

Bonnie stood her ground. She hadn't thought about anything like this till she saw Damon. Then her mind was made up, her fate was sealed. Maybe it was fate that Damon came by, found her alone, defenceless and defeated.

She didn't get scared when she saw him transforming into his vampire form. She felt calm instead. Calm and content that it was ending, that soon she would find peace. In fact she felt a little disappointment when Damon returned to human form.

"Why? Why do you wanna die?" Damon asked, curious.

"Because I don't want to live" Bonnie replied matter of factly.

"Ok, lets start again. Why don't you want to live?" he asked again.

Bonnie stood, motionless and quite. She was feeling weaker by the minute, she slumped on the grass. "I hate you"

"That's not a reason to die. Oh but wait it is. Everyone loves me, and you being the odd one out makes you right on wanting to die" Damon smirked, trying to lighten the mood.

"I hate your brother as well" Bonnie said.

"Ah we're on common ground here. I hate my brother too" Damon smiled. It was good to hear someone else hating his brother. But why she did hate Stefan was beyond Damon.

"Wait is this about Grams-Witch, about what happened?" he asked.

Bonnie looked up at him, pure rage in her eyes. "You're such an insensitive bastard. No wonder Katherine never came looking for you" She spit out.

Damon was beyond angry now. He crouched and lunged forward, stopping in front of Bonnie. He was just about to attack when he stopped.

Something was wrong here. In the millisecond, before he was about to attack he saw that Bonnie just stood, not fighting him, or using her witchy powers to burn him.

"Ah. Good strategy witch, but it wont work. Using Katherine to get me worked up and kill you. It nearly worked though"

Damon was lost. He didn't know what to do or how to deal with this suicidal Bonnie. It was a first, for someone to ask him to kill him willingly.

"I'm not gonna kill you Bonnie"

"Why?" Bonnie asked. What was wrong with Damon anyway. He should've jump to the idea and killed her there and then. Damon wanted to, tried to kill her before what was stopping him now.

"1 because I don't want to kill you, I like our little banters some time. 2. Because I don't like my victims weak, I like them to put up a fight, to feel fear. That's the whole fun in it."

"Well then Damon do me a favour and just go away"

"Alright witch, lets get serious here. What's going on? Why are you here?"

A few minutes passed and just when Damon thought she was not going to answer him at all, she spoke.

"I don't want to see that face every morning"

"Whose face?" Damon wasn't sure why he was even bothering to talk to the witch but he had the feeling she needed it.

"Mine. I don't want to look in the mirror and see my face. Remember that its all my fault" Damon opened his mouth to talk but Bonnie cut him off. "I know its yours and Stefan's fault too, but mainly my fault. I made her do the spell knowing it would weaken her. But I didn't care, I didn't think, all I wanted was Elena to be happy. I made a choice and now I'm paying the consequences"

Bonnie wasn't sure why she was saying all these things to Damon, but she was bottled up, she needed to talk no matter who it was that was listening.

"You know what bothers me the most? What I hate the most is that it was all for nothing. We opened the tomb to get Katherine out, we released all those vampires so you can get what you wanted, only to find out that she wasn't there all along. It hurts so much more to know it was for nothing. At least if you had gotten Katherine back, there would've been a comforting reason, we've done what we set out to do, we released Katherine, but no. It was all for nothing. Nothing"

Damon preferred to stay silent, not knowing what to say. It was true, it was all for nothing. All those years, he loved Katherine to the core, hated his brother, hated everyone, for taking her away from him. 145 years he grieved for the lost of the love of his love. Releasing her, saving her, that thought was what got him going for 145 years. He took risks, coming here, deciding to release all the vampires just to get to her, only to find out that she was free all along. She wasn't in the tomb, never had been. She was free, walking, living, knowing his whereabouts but not giving a damn. It hurt. He didn't want to admit it to anyone but it hurt.

"Does it hurt? To know she never gave a damn?"

Damon knew Bonnie wanted to hurt him, she was hurting and she wanted him to hurt too.

Damon's silence was giving all the answers Bonnie needed.

"You know you could've just left us in there? Save all this guilt and regret"

"I would've if it was just my choice, but there was Elena. If Stefan hadn't gone in to save you then maybe I would've left you. But he went in, and I couldn't have just left him in there. I couldn't do that".

It was always about Stefan, Damon realised. Always him. No one gave a damn about him. Never, but then again why should they? He was the evil brother, who killed out of joy, out of boredom. He was the one who had made everyone's life a misery. He really wished the witch would've left him the tomb. At least then he wouldn't have witnessed everyone's pitiful glances, how they felt sorry for him.

"But then again, I don't think I would've left you in there as well, even if Stefan didn't go in" Bonnie said.

Damon looked at Bonnie, surprised. Well, that was a first.

"For Elena" Bonnie finished quickly. "I would've done it for her, she cares about you"

"Because I'm hot, irresistible, charming and good-looking" Damon replied. He had enough of this serious mood, he hadn't been this serious and moody in years.

Bonnie chuckled, the Damon she was used to was surfacing.

"In a way I understand you. I think" Bonnie continued at Damon's puzzled expression. "You know, the obsession, the chase, the hate. Everything you've been through, everything you've done, it all comes down to one thing; Katherine. In your own twisted, crazy way, you love her. All wanted was to have her back. You've done everything for that reason. Your expression of love is different maybe to the one of us, buts its love in the end"

Bonnie didn't want to feel compassion to Damon, she wanted to hate him, but she couldn't help but remember how broken, pained, how heart-broken he had seemed when he found out that Katherine didn't care. Until that moment Bonnie never understood him, never cared about his love for Katherine, never even believed he did love her, she just thought it was a game. Until that moment. That moment she saw his face, the silent tears that he was urging not to fall, she couldn't help but feel sorry for him, and understand him.

Because of the spell, Bonnie's senses were at their highest that moment, so she was able to sense Damon's aura and feelings more than ever. She had felt his heart breaking, shattering to pieces. She had felt him losing the only line that was connecting him to this world, to sanity. She had felt his tears gathering, ready to fall, but him not allowing them to.

Damon was uncomfortable, he didn't want this, he didn't want anyone to understand him. He wanted everyone to hate him, to not understand his motives. He wanted everyone to know and believe he was a Class A jerk, an insensitive bastard. It was better that way. No one questioned him, no one got close to him. More importantly no one was able to hurt him.

"I'm out of here" Damon announced. He had had enough now. He didn't want to be here anymore. Here he felt…vulnerable. "This heart to heart thingy is not my thing witch, its more of a St. Stefan thing"

Bonnie gave a small smile. "I know. That's the reason why I talked with you I guess. Because I know that soon you'll forget everything I said to you. I know that you don't care, no matter what anyone says to you. Its not any importance to you. You can't feel Damon"

Her honesty was one of the things Damon liked and hated about the witch. She could be painfully honest and tell you what she thought without thinking of your emotions. She was the one who was insensitive not him, Damon thought. Damon turned to leave but was stopped by Bonnie.

"Damon? This 'heart to heart thingy', you should forget it ever happened. I still hate you, and I'd be happy if I don't see you around"

"Don't worry, I already forgot it. Like you said I don't care, I don't feel, its no importance to me. And don't worry you wont see me around"

And with that he left.

A/N: Usually when I write a fic/story I have everything planned, every chapter, ending etc, but with this story I have nothing planned yet, for the first time I'm going with my instincts and what comes to me that moment, so time to time, if I seem confusing or not connected I'd like to apologise from now. I'm not saying it will but just in case.

Hope you enjoyed.
