If Words Could Speak
Chapter 7
Damon Salvatore had never felt as nervous as the day he had finally decided to ask Bonnie Bennett out. It had been a decision that he had thought long and hard about and he had finally decided to give it a chance. Yes he knew deep down that he was also falling for Elena, but she was miles away while Bonnie was right here and she had been his friend for so long that he at least owed it to her to see if they could become more. After all nobody ever knew where one important decision would taker them. Maybe it would be a good thing.
Sighing Damon made his way out of his room and went over to Bonnie's. After all he didn't want to miss this opportunity before he missed out on the chance to be with a great girl. He opened her door room and immediately wished he hadn't because the sight of what he saw made him squirm slightly and made him more than a little bit embarrassed at what he had just walked into.
Bonnie laid in her bed as naked as the city night sky as she cuddled next to a guy Damon had never seen before who also seemed to be very naked and wearing the cheesiest grin that Damon had ever seen who was this guy?
Before Damon could think twice about leaving them as they were Bonnie's eyes met his in shock as she pulled up her covers hiding her and the boys body from Damon's prying eyes. He had a feeling he had a lot of explaining to do and judged off the look on Bonnie';s face he knew that he would probably have to do it fast before she cut across the room and kicked his ass all over the place for not knocking in the first place. And God knew that he would deserve it.
"I might be new here mate, but I was pretty sure you Americans were accustomed to knocking before you barged in anywhere." The guy said
"Most of us are, I just didn't know that Bon-Bon had any company or else I would have gladly taken the time and consideration to knock before entering this sex dungeon."
The guy smiled at him in amusement but Bonnie didn't seem too thrilled about the joke he had used to smooth over the ice. It was clear she was still pretty pissed off at him for cock blocking her.
"I guess I better get going." He said inching towards the door.
"No mate you can stay. I was just about to head off to class anyway."
Damon averted his eyes as the guy who was in Bonnie's bed got out of it exposing his full glory and didn't look back until the guy was already to the door and smiling back at Bonnie.
"I'll see you later gorgeous." he said with a wink.
Before Damon could say a word a pillow was tossed to his face as Bonnie who was now dressed in a rather convenient robe darted to the door right next to him.
"What the hell Damon? Haven't you ever heard of fucking knocking?"
"I'm sorry I didn't know you were entertaining a guest. I would have came back later and let you have your way with him."
"Why did you come here anyway?"
Damon clammed up feeling somewhat embarrassed. He couldn't ask Bonnie out now that he had seen her butt ass naked fucking another guy, but he didn't know how to avoid the subject either.
Luckily for him he didn't have to explain himself as his phone gave a loud shrill cry. He dug around his pocket as he produced his phone and looked down at the unknown number. Curious he pressed the talk button and held the phone closer to his ear.
"Hello?"
"Hello, Is this Damon Salvatore."
"The one and only and you are?"
"I'm Elena's roommate Caroline."
"I'm sorry Caroline, but why are you calling me?"
"It's probably nothing and I'm worrying for no reason, but I haven';t seen Elena in a couple of days and she doesn't really get along well with her relatives so I know she wasn't with them and I saw that the last person she wrote to was you so I was hoping that you might know where she was at."
"I'm sorry Caroline I have no idea. I didn't even know she was missing."
"I'm sorry to out this all you. I know you probably don't really know her personally, but I've tried everyone else and you were the last resort. "
Dread filled Damon as he felt his heart pound. Where the hell had she gone? And why hadn't he felt something when she went missing? Surely he would have felt something if she was hurt or in trouble he refused to believe anything else. He had to do something. Anything.
"Don't worry Caroline. We'll find her. I'll come there and we can look for her together."
"Oh Damon, You don't have to do that."
"I don't think you get him much I do."
"Okay just text me when your here."
"Will do."
Damon hung up the phone as he rushed straight to his room. Bonnie followed him on his heels as she asked what was wrong. He didn't answer her as he packed his stuff. He didn't know how long he would be up there but he knew he wouldn't leave until he found her. He had to find her. She had to be okay. A person as good as Elena Gilbert couldn't leave the world. It just wouldn't make sense.
A hand turned him around as he looked into Bonnie's concerned eyes.
"Damon, What's wrong?"
"It's Elena."
"What happened?"
"She's missing. I'm going to help search for her."
"What about school?"
"I can do my work there."
"I'll come with you than."
"No Bonnie. You have to stay here."
"And let my best friend go through this alone. No way in hell. I'm coming and that's final."
Damon nodded not willing to argue as Bonnie went to her room to pack. Damon sighed and picked up a picture of Elena and looked at it. Where had she gone?
