Bonnie breathed heavily as she walked through the lonely halls of Whitmore, stepping closer to her destination. She bit her bottom lip as she turned the corner, bumping into someone. Their chest was hard enough to where she fell on the ground.

Bonnie groaned in pain as she rubbed her head, she felt hands on her causing her to look into forest green eyes. He kept staring down at her in awe…Bonnie was stunned as well since he was handsome. She inspected him closely and noticed that he wasn't wearing the uniforms that the patients wore.

Bonnie instantly knew who he was and felt like she couldn't breathe as a bright smile came onto her face.

"I'm sorry," Stefan Salvatore murmured.

Ah, Stefan Salvatore…a famous movie star who's face is littered everywhere on everything and everyone. People gushed over him all the time. He's been famous since he was a child because he started in the film industry as a child with a bright smile who missed his two front teeth. Bonnie remembered reading TIME magazine when he was on the cover, she read that when he had gotten horribly sick to the point where he had to be taken into the hospital that everyone held their breaths, the clouds were somber, it always seemed to rain, and people wore sad expressions.

But once that boy got better, everything was bright and happy again.

He was America's Beloved Son.

Stefan cracked a familiar smile at her that Bonnie couldn't put her finger on where she remembered it from. He helped her on her feet and still stared at her. "Bonnie Bennett?"

"Um, yeah…wait, how do you know my name?"

"You're as famous as I am," Stefan reminded him.

Then shit hit the fan inside of her mind as reality came crashing down on her like in a cartoon when the piano comes smashing down onto a character. She remembered where she was and who she was.

"Oh," she whispered softly. "I'll go then. Sorry for, um, bumping into you."

As Bonnie turned to go, she heard him call, "Wait!"

"What?" She asked harshly.

He seemed a taken back by her tone because no one had ever spoken to him like except for one person. "I think that you're innocent in all of this. That you shouldn't be here."

Bonnie raised an eyebrow at him then laughed loudly. "That's funny! You can joke?!"

Bonnie turned away from him again, walking back to the common room. She noticed him follow her as well and she stopped, whirling around to him. "What is it now?"

"I'm an honest person. I've been taught to never lie and trust me, I believe you. I've seen the way you look at your sister in your photos, you would've never-"

"How did you see those? They were in my room…" Bonnie trailed off then stepped back a little. "Why are you here?"

"I'm here to see you."

"I know that," she snapped at him. "Why though?"

"There's this movie that I'm doing about you"

"WHAT?!"

"Before you go probably suing everyone in sight including me, I just want to warn you that your mother gave us the rights to it."

"To what exactly?"

"Your life story, Bonnie."

"It's Miss Bennett to you, Mr. Salvatore," she sneered.

Bonnie stormed inside of the common room just as Stefan kept following her, saying, "Like I said before, I believe you unlike most people out there and I want to do this to not put you in a good light for the public, but to show everyone that you didn't do it."

She scoffed. "Do you honestly believe that people are going to believe a movie plot by some hot shot director and a couple of big time actors, playing a part? They're not that stupid, well, that's debatable actually since I'm stuck in here."

"They love me out there and I can speak on your behalf…tell your story."

"So you're playing me?"

"Yeah, they're making your character male to attract more of the male audience since the female audience will already be there because of me."

"Wow," Bonnie said stunned as she crossed her arms over her chest. "You are so obnoxious."

Stefan stared at her in shock as she turned, walking away from him. "I'm not…I've never…I've never heard that word before especially from a woman's mouth."

"Then I guess I have more sanity than most women out there which is ironic seeing as how I'm in here and they're out there," Bonnie chuckled.

"Now that's not true, seeing as how I see that you have most of movies in your bedroom," Stefan informed her, arrogantly.

Bonnie groaned as she rolled her eyes. "You're a good actor and that's it. My God, you are so arrogant. To think that you were actually supposed to the male version of Mother Nature and now you're like Satan or something. Now that should be a movie. Guess what? You can play yourself since you seem to think that no one is better than you."

Stefan was stunned once again at this woman. He had never been talked to like that at all. He was always treated with love, respect, and well, attention.

Bonnie looked up into Dr. Salvatore's cold blue eyes. She knitted her eyebrows in confusion then one of the orderlies took her away from the common room and to Dr. Salvatore's office. She really hated it here. It was so gray and bleak to the point of boredom whenever she was alone in there, waiting for him. He always took his time to get to her, reminding her that she was nothing in here…that he wasn't scared of her.

Bonnie heard from Caroline that he was good at what he does and that Alaric wanted him to take special care of her. Bonnie had mentally thanked Alaric for what he did. He apparently wanted her to get the best treatment that she could possibly get here. That made Bonnie feel warm for a moment until Dr. Salvatore told her that her manipulation won't work on him anymore and that once he was finished with her…she would be raw, dependable, and worst of all, vulnerable.

She sighed heavily as she leaned in her seat, waiting as always.


Damon's knuckles turned pure white as he gripped whatever it was that was in his hand. He stared down at his little brother who was talking to his newest patient, Bonnie Bennett.

Enzo came beside him, warning him, "Damon, don't-"

"Goodbye, Enzo," he growled, stomping away from him and down to where Stefan was.

Stefan turned around in the hallway, rolling his eyes. "What do you want now?"

"Well," he drawled out sarcastically. "What I really want is for you to go away…but you always seem to pop up back in my life."

"I'm not here for you."

"But you must've known that I'm always here so why risk it, huh?" Damon questioned curiously.

Stefan scoffed. "I'm doing a movie. I'm here for Bonnie Bennett."

"I can't believe you," Damon almost yelled at him. "You're really doing a movie on a serial killer like her."

"She's technically not a serial killer or in fact, a killer. I have some common sense to know that she obviously didn't do it. She loved her sister more than anything in the world so why kill her? Did you know that her step father tried to change the will where if her mother were to die than everything goes to Bonnie and her sister, Bonnie would have more than her own sister, Damon. She's innocent and you're just too bitter to see it."

Damon scoffed. "How about you stick to your make-up and fake tears and leave the investigator work to the real detectives, Stefan?"

Stefan scoffed lightly. "That is so like you. Always the judgment first then comes the real logic later on. Even when I wanted to be an actor, you told me to stop daydreaming and be realistic."

"Because that was a stupid dream job, Stefan," Damon angrily mocked him. "You always get your hopes up and everyone lets you, not having the heart to tell you anything. Oh, I made Stefan sad! Is he gonna cry?! Oh, I don't want to see him cry because then that makes me cry!"

"You were always jealous of me-"

"Being jealous of you is like being jealous of Quasimodo, Stefan," Damon chuckled in amusement. "I have everything that I could've ever wanted."

"Well, not everything," Stefan taunted.

"This is why I can't see how the whole fucking world is in awe of you," Damon murmured. "They don't know you like I do…the real you. You practically own the sin, Pride, Stefan."

"And people are surprised that I seem to have an older brother," Stefan said sarcastically.

"Guess people can guess now that we've become estranged," Damon muttered under his breath. "Anything you have to say to Miss Bennett, you have to run it by me first since I'm her doctor. If I find out that you went behind my back to talk to her then I will make sure that your visitation is declined, Stefan. You being my brother will only further determine me to get you out of here as soon as possible."

Stefan nodded. "I would like to speak to her then-"

"Sorry, can't right now since I have a session with her. Make an appointment up front and I'll get back to you."

"Jackass," Stefan muttered under his breath then walked away, starting to write down everything he perceived about Bonnie in their first meeting.

He wrote down a word on the pad of notebook paper, underlining it twice.

OBSTRUCTIVE

TBC…


THANK YOU FOR THE REVIEWS, FOLLOWS, AND FAVORITES!

Stefan will be a main character in here as well, but he and Damon are estranged from each other so it will cause a lot of trouble in Whitmore. Bonnie dotted on Stefan until she realized how narcissistic, vain, and arrogant he really was. He does think that he's the best since he's been getting attention since he was a child. Damon is jealous that the world paid close attention to Stefan when was sick and Damon always felt left out whenever his little brother was involved…their history is kind of sad so I'm scared to write it a little bit.

I hoped you liked this chapter.


REVIEW. FOLLOW. FAVORITE. Until next time…
