A few days later Bonnie had met up with two of her best friends for lunch.

"So, how is married life," Asked her blond haired and green eyed friend, Caroline.

"It's going well," Bonnie answered with a tight lipped smile that was trying to break loose.

"You seem to get happier and happier every time we see you. Life must be good," Elena said when her straight brown hair and eyes.

"It is," Bonnie stated.

"It better be because if Finn treated you like that asshole Klaus I was bond to say something. I mean that guy had you so wrapped around his finger that you barely paid attention to us and then just…he just…uh he left you on the side of the rode like you were trash," Caroline finished with a huff. "I still hate him for you, you know."

Bonnie looked down at her sleeping daughter in her stroller and just nodded her head, "I know," she whispered."

"Hey Bon-Bon, don't get down over what she said. It may be harsh and true, but guess what," Elena asked.

"What," Bonnie uttered.

"You're happy now, a great friend, a great wife, and an amazing mother, so whatever that d-bag did is in the past and besides he was an asshole anyway. He took you away from us and when you were with him the only thing you guys did was have sex," Elena stated.

"It wasn't like that," Bonnie insisted.

"It was like that, Bonnie," Caroline added. "I always thought he was only using you for sex. I mean it's nice to be desired and wanted, but Bonnie, he did not deserve you. The way he treated you towards the end was horrible," she finished.

Bonnie placed her elbow on the table and leaned her head into her hand, "I loved him," she sniffed.

Elena reached out and grabbed her hand that was on the table next to her, "We know you did, but men like him are bastards. Trust me I know. You remember that guy Stephan I was dating," Bonnie nodded her head, "Him and his sleazy brother, Damon, wanted me as their play thing. I mean they actually wanted me to sleep with both of them. It's some sort of twisted thing they're into, sharing each other's women."

Bonnie lifted her head in shock, "When did this happen," she asked.

"A few weeks ago," Caroline answered.

"Why wasn't I told," she asked.

"I would have told you, but lately you have been so happy, I just didn't want to ruin it," Elena added.

Bonnie nodded her head in understanding, "Well I want every detail and what you did after the fact Bonnie stated, "and no more Bonnie is fragile crap either," she told them both.

"Fine," Caroline and Elena said at the same time, making all three women laugh.

It was later in the evening and Bonnie looked at herself in her vanity mirror. She was just informed by Finn that they were invited to the family's estate by Elijah for a family dinner. She didn't want to go, but Ester, their mother, had insisted. Bonnie hated her with a passion, but she never told Finn since he was the closest to her and she couldn't bring herself to ruin another of his familial relationships. So, gritting her teeth and straightening her spine she got ready for the dinner while Finn got Quinn dressed.

After driving the 40 minutes or so to get to the mansion Bonnie's nerves were on edge. She had made it a point to avoid family gathering as much as possible, but sometimes, like now, they were hard to miss. Bonnie held Quinn closer to her chest as Finn held the door open for her to walk through. She could already feel the pressure on her skin and images flashing in her mind. She needed to breathe, so she focused on her daughter.

Allowing Finn to guide her past the parlor and into the living room the family used the most, she was confronted with the whole family. She saw Elijah and his wife Kathrine standing in the far corner of the room smiling at each other. Bonnie always found it weird seeing them together since the wife looked like an older version of Elena. Then she saw Bekah leaning in her seat texting away, followed by Ester talking to a bored looking Kol, and lastly Klaus in his own dark corner drinking. From what it looked like to Bonnie he was already drunk or close to it.

Finn cleared his throat and all the females in the family turned towards them with smiles, while the men threw glares her way, Bonnie knew when she wasn't welcomed. Bekah stopped her texting and walked towards them in her black blouse, tight blue jeans, and sky high heels, "Give her to me," she squealed. As she took Quinn from Bonnie's arms, "How's my baby girl," she cooed as she carefully walked back to her seat with a laughing baby. Bonnie followed Finn to the couch on the opposite side of them.

"Oh just look at her chubby cheeks," Katherine said as she leaned onto the back of the couch to look at Quinn. "I just love chubby babies. Do you breastfeed Bonnie," she asked making Klaus, who was taking a drink from his whiskey, choke.

Bonnie hesitated, "Uh, yes I do," she finally answered.

"We're gonna have to talk sweetie since me and Eli are planning on having one of our own. You can totally give me some pointers," Katherine stated not allowing Bonnie to say anything.

"She reminds me of Klaus with all this curly blonde hair," Ester said coolly as she looked directly at Bonnie. Bonnie's body tensed against Finn's, "Though Finn also had curly blond hair and the same with Kol. It's our dear Elijah that was always the dark haired one."

Finn could tell that Bonnie was getting upset, "Enough talk. When are we going to eat," Finn asked changing the subject.

Quinn clapped her hands at the word eat and tried to speak, but all that came out was gibberish; the three women around her fussed over the baby with Katherine demanding to hold her. All Bonnie could think was that this was going to be a long night as she felt Kol staring at her and Klaus pouring himself another drink.

It was after dinner and to say the least Bonnie was ready to get the hell out of her with her man and child. They were back in the living room having coffee and deserts and she couldn't get what had expired out of her head. It was a complete nightmare. Kol kept looking at her with a smirk which pissed the hell out of Finn, but he didn't want to say or do anything in front of his mother. Klaus, whenever she spoke, would sign dramatically and mutter snide remarks, which forced her to just stop trying to speak or answer anyone. And Elijah ignored her completely, but the one who really got to her was Ester.

Bonnie hated her deeply and it was just her luck that she was dragged into another dinner with the whole family. It was hard on her and always made her very upset. All throughout the dinner Ester kept making comments on Quinn's looks. On how Quinn reminded her of one of her 3 youngest sons, reminding Bonnie that out of Kol or Klaus she didn't know who the real father of her child was.

Wanting to be free even for a moment Bonnie stood from her seat and said, "Excuse me please," as she hurried from the room not waiting for a response. Making a quick dash down a few hallways she made her way to a bathroom that was far from where the family sat. Bonnie closed the door behind her, lowered the toilet lid, and took a seat. Her head immediately dropped into her hands and she started to cry.

She didn't know why she just couldn't put her foot down when they had to have these family gathering. She always felt drained, heartbroken, and just downright disgusting whenever they got home. She didn't know how long she was there, but she soon felt a presence in the room with her and she looked up with a gasp, "Klaus," she whispered as she quickly stood from the toilet and wiped her face.

"You look ravishing," he slurred a little as he took in the firm fitting dress that stopped a few itches from her knees.

"You're drunk," she stated as she tried to side step him and walk out the open door of the bathroom.

"Not drunk enough, apparently, if I still want you," he said as he grabbed her by her upper arms and pulled her back in front of him and kissed her.

Bonnie tried to push him away, but couldn't. When she felt that he was trying to slide his tongue in her month she twisted her head to the side and broke the kiss, "Stop it Klaus,' she grunted out as she tried, unsuccessfully, to push him off.

His lips kissed her up and down her neck before he whispered in her ear, "No matter how hard I try to forget you, I never can. I still love you."

Bonnie felt tears well up in her eyes, "Klaus I'm with Finn now and I love him. Now stop," she said pushing him as hard as she could.

Klaus pulled back from her neck to see a red eyed and upset Bonnie only to sneer at her, "So, you claimed to love me once, but you still slept with Kol and in my own bed at that. So now all of a sudden you're some saint? Don't want to do to Finn what you've done to me even though you claimed love once as well," he shouted the last sentence as he shook her. Bonnie moved her lips as if she was about to say something when they heard a voice.

"Enough Klaus," Elijah said as he walked closer to them.

Looking back at his brother Klaus dropped his hands from her body before turning back to her and said, "You disgust me," as he stormed away. Bonnie let out a sob before she covered her mouth with her hand.

Elijah walked closer to her and put his plan into action, "I believe that you can clearly see what your actions are doing to my family. You have hurt my brothers, have torn them apart, and I will no longer stand back and allow it," he said as he put his hands in his suit pants pockets. "You have ruined this family enough with your whorish behavior…"

"I…" Bonnie started to interrupt him.

"Don't ever disrespect me by interrupting me again," He said firmly as he looked at the small woman in front of him. "I'm giving you a choice now, to leave this family, to divorce Finn, and walk away with a large sum of money or I can make your life with this family a living hell. You choose," he told her before her turned his back on her, leaving a devastated Bonnie in his wake.
