A/N: Thanks for all the response. I really appreciate that.
Here is the next chapter.
Ch:2 [feel me]
They just stood at the doorway, watching each other with emotions playing on their faces. Bonnie's anger returned with full force. Damon was seeing her after 37 hours and he can't help but stare. She was wearing a purple tank top paired with black skinny jeans. She looked...Damn.. cute. He had always known that she was hot, he had to be blind to not to notice that. But he wasn't. He can see that she was still angry with him and he can't blame her. It was his mess after all.
"Damon" she said sternly, folding her arms over her chest. She had no intentions of inviting him in.
"Bonnie" Damon said with the same tone, mimicking her posture as he slid past her, inside her house like he owns the place. He knew that he was constantly under the risk of getting his brain cells popped, but once Bonnie forgive him, it would be worth it.
Bonnie gaped at his attitude. Who he think he is? She was really tempted to give him a brain aneurysm or set him on fire. She could just do both. What She had been thinking when she invited him in her home? Oh yeah, She had thought that he was her best friend. She scoffed internally at looked at him as he turned to acknowledge her with fire evident in her pretty dark green eyes. He gulped, if glares could kill, he would be dead dead by now, with no way to return.
"Why are you here?" She asked as calmly as she could. She already knew why he was here, what harm is there in asking. Damon felt like it was, the calm before the storm. Unfortunately he was its only target and that can't be good. But he knew he would do this even after knowing all the risks to his brain cells. He can't let her walk away from him like that...she was his only best friend.
"I want to know how and where have you been" Damon answered slightly narrowing his ice blues. He didn't know where was she, she didn't tell him or answered his calls. So, sue him if he was slightly on edge. Bonnie narrowed her eyes at him before she snapped.
"Its none of your business " she glowered at him clenching her teeth.
Does it hurt him that Bonnie was shutting him out? Hell yes, but he was not going to show that, but he can't help as a tick formed in his jaw and his arms fell to his sides with balled fists.
"You are my business" he let it out through clenched teeth. He can't believe that she was saying that...okay he can believe it to some degree, after all he had hurt her where it burns the most but still.
"Elena and your family are your business,I am not on the list." Bonnie said through gritted teeth. Doesn't she knows that she was on top in his all lists? He can't say that he blamed her for not noticing her value in his undead life. he had done nothing to show how important she was to advanced towards her but stopped when she backed away from him. He frowned before sighing.
"Oh, come on Bonnie. Don't you know iam an asshole and I have this tendency to do things without thinking...all the time." He tried to make her understand that that was a mistake and it won't happen again. He can tell she was still unconvinced. It's going to take a lot to make her understand.
"yeah ,And I am always the casualty." She scoffed pointing a long and slender finger at herself.
"No Bon, you are my friend" Damon said with a hopeful look on his face.
She didn't know when her hand connected to his jaw in a slap untill she felt a tingling sensation in her hand . A few stray tears fell down her face, but she didn't bothered to wipe them. She was mad at herself for crying in front of Damon of all people. Is it weird that she could feel the pain of his slap?
A growl escaped his lips as his vampire face turned on .He looked at her and stopped. Her face was tear stricken...She looked vulnerable and for the first time just a 19 years old girl, who had lost and experienced too much for her age. His face transformed back to normal and softened. He slowly took a few steps towards her experimently and when she didn't backed away he continued. He stopped just in front of her and raised his hand to caress her cheek. As he touched her face, his hand started to burn as soon as it came in the contact with her smooth skin and he winced in pain, but never withdrew his hand. He cupped her face with both of his hands and hissed again at the burning sensation increased but held on as he wiped her tears with his thumbs. She looked at him with uncetainity and stepped out of his hold.why is he doing this to her?Why she was feeling things like this? She was not going to give up now...she had already endured so much pain.
"It's over" Bonnie said slowly looking down at her feet. It hurt her to say that she don't want their friendship anymore. But she was tired of getting hurt and being the only one caring for other one's feeling.
"Over? What?" Damon asked confused by what she meant when she Said that. She looked up at him and knew the exact moment he realised what she meant. His eyes widened, his jaw clenched, his palms turned into fists causing his knuckles to turned white, she thought the bones might pop out of his skin. He growled and took a predatory step towards her causing her to backup.
"You can't do this" Damon was hardly controlling his anger, he wanted to strangle her and knock some sense into her."you can't just call our friendship off like that." He all but yelled at her. How can she even think of doing something like that? Their friendship is very precious to him and he was not going to loose it. Bonnie narrowed her eyes at him.
"Oh, 'friendship'?"Bonnie said quoting it, her eyes shined with unshed tears. " if hurting me in the process of getting what you want is friendship for u, then I am better off with a friendship like this." She finished jabbing his chest from her finger, he barely budged. He let out a frustrated sigh.
"Bonnie I said I am sorry for that." Damon said gently leaning down and grabbed her by her shoulders. " It was a mistake and it won't happen me." He said it so earnestly that she wanted to trust him but her brain isn't going to let her trust him so easily after getting betrayed so many times. He doesn't know what it was like to feel pain again and again but she can help him with that.
"Do you know how I felt when I saw Kai that day?" Bonnie asked quietly, if its not for his vampire hearing he would have missed it. She looked at him with a broken look on her face and if he would had had a real heart it would have leaped out of his chest at her site. He shook his head slightly at her question and let go of her.
"You know when I saw him... I relived that every moment again of his tortures" she said, choking on words slightly. He felt like a real dick for making her relive her pain again." I felt ...pain of every injury he caused me,every moment he taunted me. You know what he said to me?" She asked but didn't wait for a response "he said that everyone of you... used me. You all never wanted me for me ..." she said pointing her finger at her heart"..But for my powers and what I can do to save the day. And you..."Bonnie looked at him." Would forget about me and leave me there once you reunite with your love" she paused. He looked at her with angry eyes, how can she think that He didn't tried to get her out of there?
"Bonnie you know I would never do that" he said through clenched
Bonnie scoffed but continued causing him to balled his hands She didn't believe him now."And the funny part was... I almost believed him. And now I thought about that...he was right about you never coming to get me out of that hell."
"Bonnie Iam. ..sorry. I know I have been a jer-" Damon stopped short as Bonnie held her hand out. He could see all anger was back in her eyes...And Its not a good sign for him.
"Save it" Bonnie shook her head almost violently. She didn't want to to hear his sorry ass apology. She was sick of it. He needed to taste the taste of his own Medicine. He needed to feel what she had gone through and she was going to do just that." Just answer this. Do you know how much it hurt to relive your worse memories and pain?"
He took a moment and then shook his head in he didn't know how it felt or what she had gone through. Whenever He can't take his emotions anymore he just turned them off. Just like that.
"Then let me help you" she said and raised her hand as she watched his eyes widened.
He watched as she chanted something in Latin and braced himself to be set on fire. He opened his mouth to say something to stop her but before he can let anything out, he felt a piercing pain in his abdomen and doubled over in pain on the floor.
"Aaghhhhhh Bonnnniiie" Damon begged Bonnie to stop in pained voice. Bonnie wavered which caused the pain Damon was experiencing lessened to some degree. But before he can comprehend anything he again felt like someone has stabbed in his stomach. He grabbed his stomach And looked at Bonnie's tear stricken face with his own pained expression.
"Bonniee..plea...se" He rasped again and pain stopped. He gasped for air grabbing his stomach. Bonnie lowered her hand.
"Now you know how I felt" Bonnie looked at him with hard eyes as he get onto his knees still breathing hard." And you know? what you felt right now was nothing what I had felt considering you are a vampire. An-"
Her words died on her lips as she felt him wrap his hands around her waist and burying his face on her stomach. Her heart accelerate for unknown reason as she looked down at him. She had never noticed before that how black his hair wanted to run her hand through his midnight black hair and say it's alright but she refrained herself by balling her hands into fists at her sides.
"Iam really sorry Bon" Damon chocked on his words due to pain and emotions swirling inside of him like a tornado." And I promise you that I am going to make Kai pay for everything he has done to u" Anger was evident in his voice and something else she can't put a finger on and she believed him. But she was too shocked by his actions to say anything. She watched him as he stood on his feet and cupped her face wiping stray tears on her face. His blue eyes lined with tears bored in her green eyes.
"please Say something " Damon said caressing her caramel cheeks. She didn't know what to say at this moment so she said what the first thing came into her mind.
"I need time" Bonnie said now looking away and getting out of his hold. He let her face out of his hands only to hold onto her wrists with his both hands. She looked up at him.
"How much?" He asked hopping if she would change her decision.
"I don't know" Bonnie said quietly. He looked hurt but covered it quickly with his iron mask. He let too much emotions show for his own good. He let go of her wrists and stepped back. He knew every good thing that happen in his life he always do something foolish to drive them away and he has done just that. But he won't let Bonnie go this time, he can't. Even the thought of Bonnie leaving him for good hurts like hell. He had been through hell many times and trust him when he say that it is not a good experience.
"Okay ,then be quick." Damon said with a slight edge to his voice causing Bonnie to look at him. His face held no emotions and she knew she was the cause of it. "I don't know how much time I'd be able to give you." With that he zoomed out of her house in his vampiric speed slamming the door behind him.
Bonnie stared at now empty space in front of her, shocked. What had she gotten herself into? She grabbed her head and sat down on her couch with a thump. She sighed when she felt her stomach rumble. That spell she cast on Damon took a little too much out of her. She can feel a head ache forming as she rubbed her temple. She had a lot of thinking to do but first a grilled sandwich was calling her name desperately.
Thanks for reading.
Hope you all enjoyed it!
