So this is after 6x10 I guess… Bonnie did the xmas tree thing still and if everyone seems to think I've completely made Bonnie hopeless I just want to say that… that could never happen not if I really wanted to stay in character. I just think she's been through a lot and even though Bonnie is this bright light of endless hope… hoping can be very tiring and when you're with someone else like she was with Damon it's easier to I think have enough hope for the both of you versus dealing with what looks like a tunnel with no light at the end by yourself…

Btw I think I'm only changing is the Ric and Damon still fighting thing since I already had them sort of make up and no Delena moments…


After burning down her 'Christmas tree' Bonnie had decided that was her goodbye to her life and friends in Mystic Falls. She didn't like the thought of being stuck here forever but as long as she was around she would strive to be somewhat productive... Well as productive as you can be, stuck alone on repeat in 1994.

She was dressing, bathing on a regular basis again, and stopped drinking… as much. And for shits and giggles she had been practicing her hand at picking locks and hot wiring more cars, and she was getting pretty good at it. She was still reading, her grimoires and all sorts of different things from all the books that filled Damon's room, and all sorts of different things like books about cars, architecture, gardening/farming, & home maintenance. If this is going to be my home might as well learn how to take care of it. Kai had actually inspired her to look into working on how to fly especially after taking that road trip to New Orleans.

She was wearing one of Damon's shirts again but more as a reward to herself for picking herself back up. Like she always did, and always would because she was a Bennett and Bennetts' are fighters.

She had been cooking more too, she always had to fend for herself when she was growing up but only learned a few basic recipes, now she had all the time in the world to learn how to make whatever she wanted... Of course now that she was all alone she realized eating anything you've made always tasted better when you have someone to share it with.

She drove over to her old house (in Damon's Camaro.) to look through some of Gram's old recipes, like her famous spiced apple pie, and zesty pesto plus a few others she wanted to try... For some wild whim Bonnie found herself gravitating towards her old bedroom.

Walking into her childhood bedroom with a small feeling nostalgia washed over her like it did the first time she had been here. She then walked over to her small jewelry box her mom gave her. It was the one thing she had really kept throughout the years and recognized for some reason it called to her so she grabbed it as well then left her childhood home. She needed a few things from the grocery store to make dinner tonight.


After Kai got away with all the traveler's magic removing the no-magic border Damon and Stefan decided to move back into the boarding house.

And Kai, the little punk, seems to be making himself scarce. Damon was thinking as he read.

With Caroline's mom in the hospital she had been understandably spending less time at the 'study sessions' with Damon and Stefan.

"Well I'm going to the hospital to check on Caroline and Liz." Stefan announced, "Are you going to be okay while I'm gone?"

"Will you please stop babying me? Look I tried witch drugs it turned out bad: life lesson learned. Bonnie and Nancy Reagan were right, and from now on I'll just say no. But seriously it happened like a week ago, so can you just let it go?" Damon asked.

"Bonnie told you that?" Stefan remarked and crossed his arms staring skeptically instead at Damon.

"Well 'drug haze Bonnie' did… It was actually the first thing she said to me." Damon arched his eyebrows and smirked.

"You realize this means drugs are actually smarter than you, right?" Stefan smiled.

"Ha. Ha. Stefan made a funny, now get out of here so you and go and be a supportive boyfriend… And tell Liz I said hi and that she's going to make through this, because she's strong!" Damon said as he reclined into his lounge chair to pick his book back up.

"Caroline's not my girlfriend." Stefan stated.

"Right, you're just friends… Blah, blah, blah… You just talk about her constantly, are always worried, and want to be there for every waking minute she allows you to be… Oh! And let's not forget the little smile you make every time she sends you a text message." Damon teased.

Stefan opened his mouth to say something, but then his phone chirped. Damon watched his brother mindfully, "Lemme guess Caroline? …Well go ahead."

Stefan rolled his eyes, and then pulled out his phone, his mouth formed into a line.

"Geez Stef don't hurt yourself trying to fight a smile!" Damon continued his joke, but Stefan ignored him and then furrowed his eyebrows.

"Damon you should hear this!" Stefan said urgently.

"Yeah I don't think I need to hear your lame pre-relationship sexting with Barbie, so hard pass."

"Damon! Caroline says she's been trying to get a hold of Elena since yesterday, she's been calling and texting her, and didn't see her at all last night!" Stefan exclaimed, "Was she with you? Have you seen or talked to her recently?"

"No, I haven't seen her since I almost broke Matty Blue Blue's neck… And last night I was with Ric using him for his Occult Studies resources." Damon answered, "I'll try giving her a call…" Damon stated standing and pulling out his phone.

Damon heard the dial tone ring and Stefan stood closely watching.

"Elena's phone." Damon heard, "Kai. What have you done with Elena?"


She parked Damon's Camaro in the same spot where they had first found it.

She looked over to the passenger's seat where her jewelry box sat.

Why did I even grab that thing?

She remembered how when she was younger she would keep all kinds of different things in it. She decided to reminisce and opened to see what treasures in held inside. Colorful bracelets, beads, and sparkly hair barrettes lots of little trinkets a little girl would have. And the secret compartment she didn't even realize was there until she was eleven. There's not gonna be anything in there now in 1994. she thought, but still had a tugging sensation to open it anyway...

So she did.

A sparkle shined out as she pulled it open. In there was a simple silver chained, tear-shaped white stoned necklace. Where did this come from? Bonnie thought confused never seeing the piece before, It's certainly is beautiful.

So she decided to try it on, looking in the rearview mirror to see how it looked, she thought. I wonder if this is a diamond? ...Hard to tell since it seems like it wasn't cut real fine… Maybe it's old I guess?

Shrugging to herself and her new necklace, she then placed her box back aside and was about to head into the store, suddenly feeling lightheaded, and a strange sensation pulsed through her body and then she passed out. She inhaled sharply as she returned to consciousness. Maybe I need to take a nap when I get back? She thought still feeling a bit hazy.

Just as she was about to get out of the car a noise startled her.

Talking.

Two people talking!

Bonnie sprung out of the car to find two people talking and walking a couple spaces over.

Then she spun around to see that the parking lot was filled with people coming in and out of the store.

Oh my God! This isn't happening! This isn't real! It must be another dream or something!?

She actually pinched herself.

Ouch. Okay so it is real.

...

I'm back! Right? ... But how? Did Damon? But where is he then?

This thought made Bonnie start again. Start running to the boarding house.


So just when she is settling with the idea that maybe she's going to be stuck for a while… ;) Plus Kai still has kidnapped Elena! This should be fun! Lol
