After spending the rest of the morning and some of the afternoon at the library reading some book and researching things that interested her Bonnie went to the local café. A place that was the popular hang out spot besides the Mystic Grill in Mystic Falls. She went there to get some lunch because she was hungry. She took a seat at the counter as the place was busy as it often was at the lunch hour.

Jeremy Gilbert a close friend of hers came over and placed a BLT with some fries in front of her.

"Here's your lunch Bon-Bon." Jeremy said

Jeremy much like Caroline had been there for her after her accident having her to get through and cope with what happened. He was like a brother to her.

Bonnie slide the plate closer to her. "Thanks Jer."

"You're welcome Bon-Bon so how are you today?" Jeremy asked

They hadn't seen each other in a week.

"It's been relaxing." Bonnie answered. "What about you, you look like you're working hard as usual."

"I am but I this is a fun place to work at." Jeremy told her. "Saving up for that new car."

Bonnie placed a French fry in her mouth. "I'm sure that you are. How is Anna by the way?"

Anna was Jeremy's girlfriend. Jeremy smiled "She's doing alright, she asked me to say hello you the next time that I saw you."

"Oh, then tell Anna that I said hi right back at her." Bonnie said

Jeremy nodded his head. "I will. You seem hungry that's a pretty big sandwich that you ordered."

Bonnie eyed her sandwich. "I am very hungry even though I had breakfast this morning."

"Are you still doing a lot of art work?" Jeremy asked

Bonnie looked at her friend. "Yes I'm still doing a lot of art work."

"You're going to be the next Picasso." Jeremy exclaimed.

Bonnie laughed. "The next Picasso? Don't you think that you're going too far in that compression?"

"Maybe not the next Picasso exactly but you are very good at drawing and painting." Jeremy pointed out.

Bonnie sipped on her coke. "I guess."

Jeremy arched a brow. "You guess, you're very good Bon-Bon and I'm sure that other people would agree with me if they saw your work."

"You think so?" Bonnie asked

Jeremy gestured. "I know so people would love your work."

Bonnie shook her head. "You're just saying that to be nice."

"I'm saying it because it's true." Jeremy told her. "Have you ever considered becoming a professional?"

"As in sell my art?" Bonnie asked

"That's what I mean." Jeremy confirmed.

Bonnie sighed. "I don't know I mostly do art for hobby. Who's to even say that people would buy my work anyway?"

"Trust me lots of people who love art would spend money on your work." Jeremy said "You should consider it."

Bonnie pursed her lips together. "Who knows maybe I will."

"Hey if you decide to go professional as an artist you can make money and do it while doing something that you love." Jeremy pointed out.

"Since you put it that way I'll take it into serious consideration." Bonnie said

"Good." Jeremy said

Bonnie noticed at the corner of her eyes two teenage boys starting at her. She knew that it was because of her disfigured face. At least one person gave her that type of look when she went out in public. As if she didn't belong out or as if something was wrong with her. No matter how often it happened she would never completely get used to it. The two teenage boys kept staring to the point that it was starting to make her feel uncomfortable.

Jeremy noticed this and much like Caroline didn't like anyone messing with or bothering Bonnie.

"What the hell are you two looking at?" Jeremy snapped at the two teenage boys. "Mind your business and turn around and eat your damn food."

The two boys looked away under Jeremy's glare as if ashamed that they had been caught staring. They went back to eating their food looking at their plates.

"Sorry about that." Jeremy told Bonnie. "Some people can be such jerks."

Bonnie nodded her head. "Yeah thanks for standing up for me I appreciate."

"No problem you know that we always have your back." Jeremy said

"I know." Bonnie said "I have wonderful friends."

Jeremy went to serve other customers and Bonnie began to eat her food. She got out a medium sized note pad and a pencil and started to draw as she had her lunch.

Damon had entered the café expecting to get some lunch. He came her a lot because the place had great food. What he didn't expect was to see her, the woman with the disfigured face. The one that he had made a bet that he could make her fall for him and then break her heart. Bonnie Bennett sat at the counter eating a sandwich and she was drawing something on a piece of paper. He saw the scars that marked half of her face and inwardly cringed being the vein all about looks person that he was.

This was his opening to get he ball rolling on the bet. Knowing this he put on his nice guy act and approached the counter glad to see that a seat was empty beside her.

"Do you mind if I take this seat?" Damon asked her.

Bonnie heard the sound of a male voice asking her this question but didn't look up. "No go ahead."

Damon took the seat next to her. "Thanks."

"You're very welcome." Bonnie said

Damon waited for her to look at him but she kept writing on her note pad.

Jeremy came over. "What can I get for you sir?"

"The usual." Damon answered. "Bacon Cheeseburger, Onion rings and a Coke to drink."

Jeremy wrote this information down. "That will be right up." He went to fill in Damon's order.

Bonnie finally looked up and turned to see who had sat beside her. Her breath was taken away as her eyes landed on the incredibly handsome beyond good looking man. He had a chiseled face, kissable lips, black hair as almost black as mid night but what got her most was his eyes. They were a light blue and the bluest that she had ever seen and very intense. She was pretty sure that there weren't many men who looked better that walked the earth at least to her.

Realizing that she was staring Bonnie diverted her eyes because her Grams told her that staring wasn't a polite thing to do even when it was a "positive" stare/

Damon could tell by have she had looked at him that she had found him attractive and saw his opening.

"Hi." Damon told her.

Bonnie blushed slightly, "Hi."

"Busy in here." Damon said keeping his tone friendly and nice.

Bonnie looked around. "It is as it's always in here at lunch hour."

"Beautiful day outside." Damon said to make conversation.

"I agree." Bonnie said

"This place has the best food." Damon told her.

Bonnie agreed. "It does."

Damon kept his eyes on her. "Are you from around here?"

Bonnie worked on her drawing some more. "As a matter of fact I am. I was born and raised in Mystic Falls."

"Interesting." Damon commented. "I've spent most of my life here as well."

"You have?" Bonnie asked

Damon nodded his head. "Moved here when I was five with my parents and brother and lived here ever since." He told her which was what happened.

Bonnie glanced at him. "Odd for such a small town I don't think that I've seen you around here."

"Maybe you have but you just don't remember." Damon suggested.

"No I'm sure that I would remember a face like yours." Bonnie told him.

Damon wanted to smirk at the compliment but he kept the nice guy look on his face.

"I think that I have seen you around town." Damon told her.

Bonnie arched a brow. "You have?"

"Yeah." Damon said "By the way I'm Damon Salvatore."

"Bonnie Bennett." Bonnie told him.

Jeremy came serving Damon his food.

"Bonnie huh?" Damon said

"That's my name." Bonnie said eating a couple more fries. She paused. "Salvatore that last name sounds familiar to me."

Damon cleared his throat. "Really?"

"Really. I feel like I have heard that name some where before." Bonnie said

"Must be the small town." Damon said

"Must be." Bonnie said

Damon brought his attention to the piece of paper that Bonnie was working on and saw that she wasn't writing as he had thought but drawing. It was a good very well done drawing one of the best that he had ever seen. The drawing seemed alive like it wanted to jump out off of the paper at him and Damon was very impressed.

Damon cocked his head to the side. "You draw?"

"Draw and paint yes." Bonnie let him know.

"So then you're an artist?" Damon asked

Bonnie shrugged a shoulder. "I guess you could say that."

"Well you're a very talented drawer Bonnie." Damon said and meant it even if he was suppose to be playing her.

"Thanks Damon." Bonnie said

There conversation lasted a little longer before Bonnie finished off her lunch, paid the bill, and put her note pad away.

"I have to go now." Bonnie let him know.

"Okay talk for talking to me during my lunch." Damon told her.

"You're welcome." Bonnie said

Damon watched as she stood up. "Hopefully I will see you around."

"Maybe you will." Bonnie said "Later Damon."

"Bye Bonnie." Damon said and watched as she left the café.

Katherine Pierce was back at her house when her phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was Damon calling so she answered it.

"Hello Damon." Katherine tried a sexy voice.

"Guess what happened today Kat." Damon started

"What?" Katherine wanted to know.

"I went to the café today and I saw Bonnie Bennett there." Damon said

Katherine was very interested. "You mean Bonnie 'two faced' Bennett.?"

"Who else would I mean?" Damon asked as if the question was silly.

"Tell me what happened." Katherine said

Damon shifted his phone to his other ear. "I talked to her."

"Did she talk back?" Katherine asked

"Of course he did." Damon answered

Katherine flipped her hair behind her ear. "How was she?"

"Seemed like a nice girl." Damon said "Or whatever."

"Then it should be easier for you to fool her." Katherine told him.

"Getting Bonnie Bennett to fall for me is going to be a piece of cake and then I'll break the harsh truth to her." Damon's voice was cocky. "Then you'll owe me a ton of money."

"As long as you get the job done I'll pay you." Katherine said

"Believe me I will." Damon told her.

"Okay Damon I guess I will see you tonight." Katherine said suggestively.

"Believe me I'll be there." Damon said

Katherine ended the phone call with Damon a evil smile crossed her place. The plan had been set in motion to hurt and humiliate Bonnie Bennett. What Katherine hadn't told Damon was that she and Bonnie had been going to the same schools since elementary on up. Her and Bonnie were never friends. Bonnie would hang out with Caroline Forbes and Jeremy Gilbert all through the school years.

In middle school Katherine started to become full of herself and her looks and she took notice of how others looked comparing herself to other girls. She noticed that as each school year passed into the next that Bonnie Bennett would became more and more prettier the closer that she got to puberty. Guys started to notice to as they got closer to that age in which boys thought about sex and noticed how good girls looked, they noticed Bonnie with her Mocha skin and her mossy green eyes.

Katherine didn't like any attention being taken away from her. She wanted all of the guys to be on her. So she grew jealous of Bonnie Bennett just because Bonnie had been so pretty and Katherine couldn't stand it so she had a hatred for Bonnie even though Bonnie never did or said anything against her. When Bonnie had gotten into that accident and her face was messed up the boys no longer flocked to her and that was something that made Katherine feel better about herself.

Now she had a chance to inflict pain and heartbreak on Bonnie Bennett just because she wanted to. Katherine was going to enjoy the humiliation on Bonnie's face once Damon revealed the truth. When he told her that he would never fall for someone who looked like her. Katherine was playing a game and Damon Salvatore was simply her pawn.
