Thanks for the Reviews, keep'em coming. Oh, and there's more to what happened to Stefan than what it appears, I can't say a lot right now though. Hehe.
Elena fell onto her king sized bed phone pressed to her ear she smiled brightly at the ceiling as she listened to the soft male voice on the other end.
"I can't tomorrow, I have a job interview." Elena said ignoring the maid as she came into the room, pretending to pick up stray clothes while glancing nervously at Elena.
Elena rolling her eyes seeing the servant obviously wanting something put her hand over the phone for her friend couldn't hear her. She couldn't talk with the maid around, she was a gossip and told her parents everything. "What is it Mia?" She asked.
Mia avoided meeting Elena eyes wanting to avoid confrontation with the young women. "The gate is still open. I was wonder were is Bonnie?" Mia mumbled softly.
Elena frowned. She hadn't realized that Bonnie wasn't back yet. "I wouldn't have a clue." She paused. "I'm sure she's just hanging out with Caroline or something," she shrugged carelessly. "Bonnie's a grown woman, she can be gone for a couple hours without having to call in the military."
Mia nodded nervously before quickly backing out of the room. Elena watched her leave, still frowning. "Bonnie's not home yet?" She asked herself almost worried, then she remembered the handsome man on the other end of the phone.
"Ah Elijah!" She said relived to hear the voice on the other end of the phone. "Sorry about that, what were you saying about the party." She smiled.

Damon walked towards his brother's grave, each step he took added another weight to his stomach. He visited the sight everyday, at was the least he could do. It was something he just could not get used to, it was something he shouldn't have to get use too. Stopping in front of the grave he looked down upon his brother's name as an invisible hand reached in and squeezed his heart.
"Such a girl," He said through gritted teeth. "You could have done better, Stefan. I still can't believe you took your own life over a woman." Damon glared at the grave and shook his head. He closed his eyes for a second and swallowed thickly.
He didn't have a body but he had placed his brother's grave on they're private island at his favorite spot were the sun always set, close to the shore, near the forest.
"How was that fair to me, you little shit head?" Damon said angrily at the grave. His whole body shook with anger, anger he wanted to release. Then he stopped, quite suddenly.
"Don't worry brother, I will get your revenge." He said softly. "I will make sure its possible for you to rest in peaces."
"Help! Help! Someone help me, please." Damon head snapped up and in the direction of the shouts. He snorted, lips twitching up in a grin.
He guessed his guest had finally awakened.

Bonnie, still bound and now blind folded, rolled from her place on the bed onto the floor painfully. Upon remembering her predicament, she had started screaming for help. Hoping someone would come to her rescue. A loud smash made her flinch and look up, moving her head around blindly.
"Help! Help!" Damon mocked pulling Bonnie to her feet yanking her blind fold away.
Bonnie blinked at the sudden brightness, disoriented. Recovering, she glared at the man who's painful hold on her arm was digging into the bruises he had already left there. She held in a groan.
"Look around you Elena!" Damon shouted, spreading out his arm to showcase what was around them. "Who's going to help you? Your in a hut in the middle of my island. No one is going to help you."
"I've told you, already. I am not Elena!" Bonnie shouted at him. He only laughed. Frustrated, Bonnie looked around the horrible hut with it's large, flimsy walls. It seemed to be made of twigs and mud.
"Don't try that again Elena. I am not my brother, I will not be fooled by deceitful whores like you! I'm hip to the game." Damon pushed Bonnie back onto the bed roughly.
Bonnie stared at him in shock. How could he dare make such a stupid mistake. He really seemed to think she was Elena. "Is Stefan here? Take me to him he will tell you who I am." Bonnie tried to reason.
Damon remained quiet, staring at Bonnie. A muscle in his jaw jumped.
Bonnie huffed. "Why won't you speak? Take me to Stefan!"She yelled at him. "Who in the hell are you anyway?"
Damon bringing out a small razor from his back pocket and walked towards Bonnie who backed away as far as she could.
Reaching passed the scared girl, Damon cut her bindings only to chain her leg to a wooden post in the room. He began to leave, wordlessly.
Bonnie started to follow only to realize the chain stopped her at the door. Her fearfulness rose. "You can't do this to me! This is illegal." She screamed, staring at the chain in horror before looking back up at him. "You can not hold me prisoner !"
Damon whirled around her so fast Bonnie almost took a step back. His face twisted with so much fury and madness that her blood froze.
"Newsflash, Elena, you are who I say you are. You are my prisoner and there's nothing you can do about it." He sneered. Bonnie did take a step back this time.
She swallowed the sudden fear blooming inside her. "I'm beg you, please." She started out and lowered her guard, "let me go."
Damon only glared at her for a moment before smirking widely. He turned and walked away.

"Are you serious? Bonnie really isn't back yet?" Elena asked Mia.
Mia nodded, looking worried. Bonnie was a sweet girl. She didn't go out very often, let alone stay out all night.
Elena brows creased slightly as she thought but the thoughts were interrupted by the sound of the front door opening.
"We are back!" Her parents shouted coming into the room.
Getting up she hugged her parents. "How was France?" She asked giving her mother a kiss. "How's Jer liking school out there?"
"Wonderful! And he's fine and adjusting well." Kay, Elena's mother, exclaimed with a long sigh. "We brought you many gifts." Kay pulled her daughter down to sit with her on the couch.
"How were things while we were gone?" Grayson, Elena's father asked sitting across from them.
Elena smiled brightly, "Fine, everything was fine. Bonnie took care of everything, she's so responsible."
"Speaking of Bonnie, is she around?" Grayson asked.
"Um well," Elena stumbled over her words. She couldn't tell her parents she had no idea, what if Bonnie was simply spending time with that Kai guy who was sweet on her. She didn't want to get her friend into trouble. Plus, she had no doubt her parents wouldn't be happy about her not realizing her foster sister was gone all night. "She went to see her mother suddenly, she seemed upset about something." Elena lied ignoring the look Mia threw her.
"That girl has been getting int a lot of trouble lately." Kay shook her head. "What on earth is going on with her? I'm worried, but her behavior as of recently is disrespectful. Our family has a reputation to up hold. " Technically, all of the troubles Bonnie had gotten into were actually Elena's, Bonnie had just taken the fall for her.
Grayson frowned worriedly. "She can go see her mother. Besides she obviously spoke to Elena about it. Maybe talking to Abby will help her through whatever she's going through right now."
Kay frowned at her husband he always took Bonnie's side and excused her bad behavior.

Once again, Damon found himself staring down onto his brother's grave a day later. His anger had risen with the sun with another day. Damon hated the amount of rage that swirled around inside of him lately. It was all her fault. He wanted Elena to suffer for the life she had destroyed. He wanted her to suffer. He needed her to suffer to give him peace.
"Today," He told the grave, voice full of promise, "today I will make her pay."
The sound of Bonnie screaming only fueled his rage. He growled and made his way back to the hut he kept her at.
Arriving upon the hut, he found one of his workers, Felipe, a skinny, little man, picking up a spider from the screaming girls leg.
"I see you found her dinner, Felipe." Damon strutted forward, arms crossed over his sweaty, white shirt.
The mute man nodded happily.
Bonnie made a disgusted face "You're going eat that thing? Because I'm not going to eat it." She looked at him as if he were crazy.
Damon glared at her, annoyance clear. "You assume I'll offer you something else to eat? When you're starving you'll be more then thankful for a little creepy-crawly creature." He motioned for Felipe to leave with a dismissive wave of his hand. "That is why you were screaming?" He motioned to the retreating Felipe, expression condescending. He shrugged after a moment, "I suppose knowing my little toy's weakness is good. I think I might put twenty more in here, just to make you feel at home," he smirked.
"You better not," Bonnie warned, voice strong, eyes hard. "You're making a mistake."
Damon raised a eye brow, obviously asking what could she do to stop him. He moved forward and unchained the chain from the post. He pulled at it, forcing her to move.
Bonnie winced when the chain pinched her ankle, the metal digging into her flesh. "Ouch!" She quickly said. "It hurts! Stop."
Ignoring the wincing girl, Damon also took a tight hold onto her wrist when she lagged behind and began to drag her through the forest and towards the beach.
"It hurts," Bonnie winced trying to get Damon to stop. "Why are you doing this to me?"
"A pet needs exercise" Was his simple, demeaning answer.
Unable to take anymore of the pinching of her flesh, Bonnie simply stopped, refusing to move any further. They stopped on the beach, near the crashing waves. "You can't do this!" She repeated for what felt as if it were the millionth time.
Once again, as quick as lighting, Damon had turned on her, expression dangerous.
"I will make you pay. You deserve everything I'm going to do. You deserve to be punished." He growled out.
"What are you vigilante!" she panted, face furious. "Batman? Who are you to say I deserve to be punished? God?"
"Yes!" He shouted back, eyes mad. Bonnie's eyes widened. " I am Lord of this Island. I am king of this castle. I am God here and you are nothing. Being lord of this island, I will pass judgment on you right here, right now." He pointed behind Bonnie.
Bonnie turned, her eyes going wide when she saw the pier. Her breath caught in her throat.
"As-Assume you did have the wrong person?" Bonnie said voice low and shaky.
Damon snarled at her like an animal. "Don't think I will let you go over assumptions, Elena. You can't trick me. I'm not anything like the little boys you trick and break," he spat at her with his words. "If I did, however, have the wrong girl." He was beyond sure he didn't. "I would bury you on this island, and do everything in my power to find every girl that looks like you and who's name is Elena."
Bonnie looked at the monster before her "You wouldn't set me free?" She asked subdued.
"No," Was his simple answer. He dragged Bonnie to underneath the pier, pulling her through the water. He chained her chain to one of the posts. She watched him, biting her lip.
Bonnie looked at the water around her, her heart beat increased rapidly with fear. Images of herself of a child almost drowning in the pool at their old house, if it weren't for Elena, coming to her vivid and clear.
Damon, noticing Bonnie's breathing had become labored as her glassy eyes darted over the water in pure fear, smirked. "What are you hydrophobic? Afraid of a little water?"
Shaking his head, he began to walk away, heading back to shore. Then stopped, "oh and don't drown to fast, if I don't make it back in time before the tide rises to high." He smirked darkly. "The water raises really fast on this side of the island."
