A/N: I actually had time to write this so I decided to publish it for y'all. Hope you enjoy!

Disclaimer: *Insert the same thing from the last chapter*

Damon Salvatore had never been more grateful for Caroline in his entire life.

She had somehow managed to convince Bonnie to come over for dinner at seven and had told him he might have a chance with Bonnie.

After Caroline had told him Bonnie was coming to dinner on that night, he had kinda freaked out a little bit.

Bonnie and him were best friends, but after that kiss he hadn't spoken to her and he wasn't sure he could actually face her.

Maybe it was a good thing that there would be others at the house so she didn't have a chance to kill him, at least without witnesses.

As Damon stepped out of the shower with a towel wrapped around his waist, he wasn't really paying attention to what was going on around him much. He had too many things to think about, including the witch he didn't realize was sitting on his bed until she cleared her throat.

He was immediately aware of her presence now and just looked at her, then the clock, it was only five.

"What are you doing here?"He asked her.

"I needed to talk to you, without listening ears."

Damon was still just staring at Bonnie.

"Okay can we talk in the kitchen? After I put some clothes on?" He asked her.

She gave him a small smile as she brushed past him to go downstairs.

Damon closed the door behind her.

He put on some clothes, but as he went to leave his room, he hesitated. I mean the window was right there, perfect to make a nice escape for avoiding your best friend…

Focus Damon! He thought to himself as he pushed out of the door and down the stairs.

When he walked in the kitchen, she was sitting on the kitchen island, a pot of coffee brewing on the counter.

Damon analyzed her for a moment.

Her dark was curled, she was wearing a long coat so Damon could only see her feet which had golden colored heels on them.

Before Damon could over analyze all of this though she once again cleared her throat to draw his attention.

He had obviously been staring for a while.

"Damon, hello?" Bonnie snapped at him, raising her eyebrows.

"Um yeah, sorry I was distracted. What did you come here to talk about?" He asked, but almost instantly he felt like an even bigger idiot.

He know exactly what she was here to talk about.

She gave him a look that said, are you fucking kidding me?

He sighed, and figured he might as well get this over with without coming off like a complete asshole.

"I'm sorry, that was a stupid question."

She just continued to look at him.

He decided he would say his piece before she set him on fire.

"I'm sorry. I really shouldn't have kissed you while you were drunk and sad and that was not a good move on my part. You just started talking about how you might fall in love with me someday so I did what I thought was a good thing to do, but looking back was kinda not such a good thing to do so-" He ranted, cut off by her laughing it him.

"What's so funny?" He questioned, crossing his arms over his chest.

"I've never heard you ramble so much, it amused me." She responded, hopping off the counter to pour herself a cup of coffee.

Her back was now towards him.

"That night, I was so drunk and depressed about Enzo till you got there. Then all of the sudden my worry was gone and it was replaced with a sense of… comfort. You did what you thought was the right thing and I can't be mad at you for it." She told him calmly as she continued making her coffee.

This was completely throwing Damon off. Why was she so calm about this? It was kinda scary.

"I would just leave it at that but…" She trailed off now facing him.

Oh no.

"You don't go shopping with Caroline for nothing so we kinda have to talk about it."

Well, Damon thought. He was never going to tell the blonde anything ever again.

"So it's not a big deal."

She looked at him with the same look she gave him earlier.

"Why would you go shopping with Caroline then?" She asked him as he seemed to not want to make eye contact with her.

"Your birthday, I didn't know what to get you."

"My birthday is in February."

"Never to early to get a gift."

"It's July."

"Merry Christmas."

She was glaring at him now.

He sighed.

"Ugh fine. The night I came over I wasn't there for just a regular visit. I came to give you what I got for you and tell you something."

He slowly walked towards her.

It was now or never.

"Bonnie, somewhere along the way I just… I feel something for you, something that isn't platonic and I don't know how to deal with that without screwing up everything." He sighed, feeling as if a weight was lifted off of his shoulders.

The two stood no more than a foot apart now as Bonnie had seemed to stop breathing.

"Damon…" Bonnie started, not really knowing what to say to him in this moment.

He had just told her he felt something for her and she was fucking blanking, it was like all words had escaped her as the vampire just looked at her.

He gave her a small smile.

"No, I get it Bon, just forget I said anything." He said turning away from her. Before he could take a second step, she had grabbed his hand and pulled him towards her.

All of the sudden, her lips were on his.

Damon felt as if he was dreaming again. Her lips were soft which he hadn't noticed the last time as his hand now rested under her chin,

Bonnie didn't know how to tell him how she felt so she hoped this would get the message across clearly.

They both pulled away considering one of them still needed air to survive.

This time however instead of awkwardness filling the air between them, it was a sense of comfort. They smiled at each other.

"I'm taking it that means you don't like me." Damon said.

"Shut up." She said laughing at him as he kissed her again.

"I told you Stefan!" Caroline yelled as her and Stefan walked into the kitchen.

The duo broke apart now standing on opposite sides of the kitchen.

Stefan looked slightly uncomfortable, unlike Caroline who was practically glowing with happiness.

"HI Care." Bonnie said taking a sip of her coffee she had left on the counter.

The blonde turned to the witch.

"Bonnie, we need to talk, now." Caroline said pulling Bonnie out of the kitchen before she could start to object."

As they reached Stefan's room, the vampire pushed them inside and closed the door.

Bonnie was now sitting on the bed while Caroline paced in front of her.

"Oh my god, I can't believe this! I did not think this would actually work I mean wow Bonnie this is so exciting!" Caroline rambled out.

Bonnie just stared at her, a slight smile on her face.

"Calm down Care, it's okay the world isn't ending." She said trying to calm her friend as Bonnie now sat against the headboard of the bed.

Caroline sighed, and joined Bonnie.

"I know this is just… kinda weird you know? I mean if I would have told you five years ago that you would be kissing Damon Salvatore in his kitchen you would have laughed at me."

Bonnie chuckled.

"Probably."

"So…" The blonde began. "You and Damon?"

Bonnie just covered her face with a pillow.

"Don't remind me Care, you think this is weird for you? I just realized I'm in love with my best friend."

Caroline stopped moving and just stared at Bonnie with her mouth hanging open.

"You're what!" Caroline yelled at her friend.

"Caroline be quiet!" Bonnie pleaded.

"You are in love with Damon?" Caroline whispered.

Bonnie just looked in front of her and didn't say a word.

Was she really in love with Damon?

As Caroline and Bonnie talked, the brothers downstairs were having a similar conversation.

As the two made dinner, Stefan just couldn't keep his thoughts to himself for any longer.

"You and Bonnie? When did that happen?" Stefan asked as the two prepared dinner.

Damon sighed.

"Are we really going to talk about this?"

Stefan just shrugged.

"I mean, this isn't weird to you? Bonnie and you used to not be able to stand each other, then the prison world happened. You two became friends, then Elena goes into a coma and now you are with Bonnie?" Stefan asked. He didn't want to ruin his brother's happiness at all, but he also didn't want him to hurt Bonnie either.

"I don't know when or how it happened, but all of the sudden she was just… there. She was there for me when no one else could be and all of the sudden I started paying attention to things I never did before. What she liked to eat, what she liked to wear, what made her happy, what made her mad, what I could and couldn't say without her giving me an aneurysm."

Stefan laughed at the last part.

"Being in her presence just made me feel…" He trailed off.

"Euphoric?" Stefan finished for him.

"I never told you that she was able to catch me before I dessicated myself." Damon started.

Stefan raised his eyebrows. He knew something was weird between them after Damon had woken up. He had just blamed it on the fact that Damon had left in the first place.

"She told me that I had hurt her, that me, her best friend, was causing her pain in the fact that she was never going to see me again. The last thing I heard from her was that I hurt her Stef. Even when my pangs of hunger faded away, those words, they hurt more than any of that." The raven haired vampire finished, regret in his eyes.

Stefan had never known that, he understood how much it pained Damon to leave, but that, that must have really torn his brother apart.

He knew his brother cared about the witch far more than he had let on.

"But she has forgiven you so stop throwing yourself a pity party." Bonnie said walking into the kitchen with Caroline on her heels.

Damon smiled at her.

"Can we talk?" He asked her.

She nodded her head as Damon lead her out of the front door and onto the porch

The sat in comfortable silence till Damon broke it.

"I love you."
