Things were getting chaotic at the armory and he was a little anxious about Bonnie being in the institution too long. Alex kept things closer and closer to her chest these days and he was barely able to keep up with the many missions she sent him on let alone try to keep steps ahead of her.

He's spoken to Bonnie but haven't seen her in nearly four weeks and he was missing her terribly. He didn't like her being there but she was determined. There was also talk about Rayna drama happening again. He had to see Bonnie and see how things are moving along on her side.

When he arrived he sneaked his way in and patiently waited for her in her room. The only time being there was when they first came to check her in. Her room was small and cold then but she managed to make it into her space in no time. He smiled remembering when she first started to settle at the cabin asking if he was going to stay there.

"Maybe but I'll barely be here don't worry. The cabin is yours." Not realizing he was being drawn back like the moth he was to her flame. One time he came back to the cabin and she was on the floor with books and papers everywhere, covered up to her neck in quilts. He remembered thinking how good it felt to come home to her like that and then she had just looked up at him when he came in and said "I'm freezing"

He sighed. That was his fault. He should have taught her to make a decent fire. He approached her and leaned down lightly touching her face "Sorry love" and when he did it, it caught them both off guard and he cleared his throat and quickly dropped his hand. Bonnie didn't say anything but they both had felt the change in atmosphere that night.

"It just wouldn't stay" she said referring to the fire place.

"Come on over here. First lesson. How to build a fire so you won't accidentally kill yourself and all my efforts will be for nothing. Bonnie rolled her eyes but came closer and he told her what to do to keep the fire burning.

"I think I have it."

"Good, because I'm testing you on it later."

He never really considered the cabin a home before but he soon became attached to it and couldn't stay away.

Bonnie then walked in and turned on the light. She saw him and surprised, she asked "What are you doing here?"

"It's bad out there love. You can't hide in here forever."

Her face lit up for him and she rushed towards him. She slammed into his body and their arms immediately wrapped around each other and kissed. Her leg slightly hiked up around him and he only wanted to bring her closer. Her kiss was fierce and he gave as much as he got.

Enzo broke the kiss, "Um love, we should close the door." Keeping an arm around her, he backed her up and shut the door.

She leaned against it and sighed "I've missed you"

"I've missed you too" he said stroking her cheek.

"Is that why you're here?"

"Mostly" he pulled her away and sat down and she sat on his lap. "There's more drama at the armory than usual lately and I felt like things are closing in on us. How are you doing in here?"

"Well ,I am getting a little more emotional than I thought." she said thinking about the group session she had today.

"You did look a bit down walking in here. Just say the word and I'll have you out of here."

She gave him a sad smile "I have to do this, just will take time to build some trust and stability."

He nodded his head understanding.

"I am glad to see you" She sank into him and put her head on his shoulder and a hand on his chest "What's going on at the armory?"

"For one thing, there's been word that Rayna Cruz is back on the radar. She lifted her head "And they're keeping things from me. They definitely don't trust me anymore.

Bonnie smiled "well you are keeping things from them. Maybe the same reason you're there, they keep you around, to spy."

"That's what I'm afraid of and I'm only really just keeping you from Alex. They can't have you."

Bonnie traced his jawline with her fingertips and her hand went behind his neck and started to kiss him. One of Enzo's hand went up her back and one on her thigh and he deepened the kiss. He laid her on the bed and continued kissing her. She slipped her hands between his jacket and wrapped a leg around him.

Enzo abruptly stopped and lifted his mouth from hers.

"What?" she asked

"I think they are doing the nightly room checks" and then he vamped behind the door before the orderly came and checked on her.

After they left she smiled and said "that was close. I felt like a teenager almost being caught with a boy in her room. Thank goodness I have a vampire boyfriend."

"Words you thought you'd never say, love"

He walked back to her and her smile fell and she looked up at him, sad "Don't go. Stay with me tonight"

She pulled him closer by his belt loops.

"That's risky love"

"They won't come back til morning."

"Well I was thinking along the lines of I may not want to ever leave you and check myself in."

She laughed "Please"

"And how can I resist that?" He sighed "don't look at me like that"

"How's that?"

He smirked and took off his jacket and placed it on the chair and slipped off his shoes.

"Alright, you win, come on little necromancer" he said as he laid in her small twin bed and lifted the covers for her to slip in. She snuggled up close, laying her head on his chest.

"So, how's Virginia?" he asked.

"Closed off. It's really tough getting her to speak, let alone about her family or the armory."

She looked up at him "thank you for staying with me"

"I'm staying for purely selfish reasons" she smiled at him "The cabin has been so lonely without you, love"


Well, I came back to it. Thank you for reading.
