Author's Note: So here's another chapter for you guys!
That's for the support you give me in your numerous reviews.
Thanks BonnieFF, I love your stories (Love is a slow burn was the first I read, I think) and I am very glad that you read mine.
Thank you KhatF for your review, I understand what you mean about writing in English, and I have to tell you that despite the fact that you say English isn't your strongest side, I think you are doing very well. And also I love Scandinavia, so I was pretty amazed to see that someone in Norway read my story, though I only know a few words (but it's in Finnish sadly).
Thanks to Lula6791 too, and no you're not a freak for liking reading books!
Thank you to Primavera15 and Lily CullenSalvatore for your support throughout the chapters.
Enough said, now on to chapter 10!
CHAPTER 10: Let's get this party started
Friday night arrived quickly and the girls were very excited for Bonnie to loosen up and finally start to date again. Caroline and Elena insisted on assisting Bonnie with her preparation.
"Give me the hair straightener please Elena" demanded Caroline while brushing Bonnie's hair while she was observing her reflection in the mirror.
Caroline finished straightening Bonnie's hair, they now look darker, and were now down in her back. "Now scissors, El" she asked again.
Elena was so thrilled she didn't actually care about the cold way Caroline was talking to her.
"What? What do you need scissors for? Caroline?" Bonnie blurted out, she was obviously panicking at what Caroline was about to do.
"I'm cutting you bangs! It will look magnificent on you! It will emphasize your gaze! Not to mention that all the guys won't be able to take their eyes off you.." Caroline tried to comfort Bonnie, she put her hands on her shoulders. "It's going to be OK…close your eyes''.
"Open!" cried Caroline so proud of her achievement.
"Oh my god...Caro, it's beautiful!" Bonnie cried, her jaw dropped of amazement.
"Now, makeup!" Elena shouted, impatient. As Elena applied black eyeliner on Bonnie's lower and upper lid, and dark emerald eye shimmer on her upper eyelid Bonnie began to realize that just a little makeup totally changed her appearance, in a good way. Elena just added the final touch to Bonnie's makeup which consisted in applying carefully the mascara on her lashes.
"Thanks El, I really don't recognize myself here…You guys did a really great job!" Bonnie thanked them, they pulled together in a short hug.
It was 8 pm and the girls were now walking up the alley to Tyler's party, Bonnie breathed in and out as she was advised by Elena, yes, Bonnie felt really underdressed in that dress and was a little bit scared to see the reaction boys –and girls threatened by her- will have when she'll step in the house. "Everything's gonna be alright Bon! Take this…"Caroline trailed off, gesturing in her bag and pulling off a silver flask. Alcohol might be the solution for Bonnie right now.
"It's tequila, your favorite " she winked at Bonnie.
Bonnie didn't hesitate and took the flask off Caroline's hand, she took three sips. She needed to be in the mood to party, not completely drunk and puking her guts out.
They rang at Tyler's bell, but no one came, obviously the music was too loud for anyone to hear it. Caroline opened the door, and the three went inside. They got rid of their coats and made their way to the living room. Then Elena caught glimpse of Tyler and nudged Bonnie with her elbow.
"We'll see if you get the awaited reaction from Mister Can't-keep-my-hands-for-me" she teased, stifling a laughter.
"Hey Bonnie, hey girls!" Tyler greeted them adding a wide grin to Bonnie exclusively. "Told ya!" Elena whispered faking coughing.
"I'm going to see if Matt's here, coming Elena?" Caroline didn't wait for an answer and grabbed Elena's forearm pulling her out of Bonnie's reach.
Tyler closed the distance between Bonnie and him, and whispered to her ear " You are smoking hot, hope you know that before you go out there where a bunch of guys are waiting." He touched her ear with his lips which caused Bonnie to flinch a little. "Well you look pretty good too Mr. Lockwood" she retorted with a smile.
The DJ just filled the air with Tik Tok by Ke$ha, and Bonnie could spot that the dancefloor was really crowded. Infact Tyler had invited every single soul of Mystic Falls High School, and those people brought other people, who brought other people and so on. Even Jeremy Gilbert was there, uh oh Bonnie thought. But hey, it was her night and she wasn't going to spend it worrying about what Jeremy would or wouldn't do.
She took Tyler's hand and pulled him towards the dance floor. She went to the DJ. "Hey, Riley! You mind do me a little favor? Could you put Rude Boy next?" she batted her lashes in a flirtatious way, hoping to smother him.
"Anything for you, hon" He replied, completely under her charms.
"Thanks!" she giggled, now returning and dancing towards the dance floor. It was very crowded but when she made her way towards it, she noticed that the people were making room for her to dance. She caught glimpse of Dylan Arkin watching her, while he danced with another girl. He tossed the girl aside without any explanation and made his way to Bonnie.
"Hey beautiful…"he said in a whisper placing his hands on her hips, and approaching his body to hers. Bonnie acknowledged him, and tried to provoke him to see how he would react. She placed her hands on his butt and got the reaction she was expecting "I wondered how long it would take you for you to succumb to my delicious toned body" he said with a smirk.
As promised Riley put Rude Boy and Bonnie felt that it was time for her to let go of Dylan before he was about to think she wanted him.
As he leaned to kiss her, she escaped saying "Well, it's my song! Gotta go, sorry!" she smiled widely at him and runned to Tyler who was talking to Matt, they seemed to have make up since he last punched him which was two weeks ago.
"Hey, Ty, wanna dance? It's my song!" she cried while she pulled him by the wrist, he didn't have time to reply or to excuse himself to Matt that they were already on the dance floor Bonnie dancing in front of him in a very explicit kind of way. She moved her hips and butt as Rihanna did in her video, and Tyler was –at the very least- enjoying it. Bonnie had one hand on his neck while she danced and sang to the song.
Elena was talking with Stefan, as a friend, and sipping a delicious Mojito freshly made by the barman Tyler had hired when she saw a caramel skinned girl with bangs dancing with Tyler, who had the widest smile on his face. "Wait a minute," she cutted Stefan "Is that—" she couldn't finish her question." Yeah, it's Bonnie, she's wild tonight don't you think?" Stefan giggled "But I don't think my brother would like it" he said on a more serious tone.
Bonnie and Tyler were now face to face, and seconds later Tyler was leaning in and kissed Bonnie. He smelled of alcohol and nachos thought Bonnie, but her breath wasn't the best either, she had drunk Tequila.
The kiss lasted a while after the song was over and they parted for air.
That's when Bonnie spotted Damon by the bar, an arm around a girl who seemed to be dressed as a hooker.
Bonnie let go of Tyler to talk to Damon.
"Hi, Damon, I haven't seen you in a while. I missed you, you know" she began, hoping they could talk for a bit.
"Well, well, well, isn't it little Bonnie Bennett standing in front of me?" he said obviously pissed.
"So…how have you been?" Bonnie asked, still trying to make conversation.
"How I've been? Well, besides you bringing your jock over to my house for a dinner I had cooked for you and I, I feel great! Isn't it right, Alison?"
"Oh, because I hurt your little feelings by leaving early, well you didn't have to spill it all in front of Tyler, and act jealous and all since we're not even an item! Plus, I'm pretty sure you don't do girlfriends, well I thought a no-strings-attached- relationship suited you better, so I brought a friend over." She shouted at him, glaring at him with a feeling of anger growing in her.
"Yeah, on second thought I prefer that, no strings attached relationship...Besides, it's not that you cared now that you have your little boyfriend and that it's official. Now, get out of my way, Alison and I have business to attend, so if you please…" Damon added, smirking at Bonnie in a way that made her whole body inflame.
"Toodles!" Alison said with a cheerful voice, waving at her.
Well, you won't smile as much when you find out what you're in for, poor girl, Bonnie thought.
She was so unnerved by his behavior, that with her powers she managed to make the girl trip while walking on her 5 inches high heels, she poured all the content of her drink on Damon's new John Varvatos shirt.
"Man! Can you be anymore clumsy?" he yelled at her, but soon he saw that Bonnie was responsible for it and added "Well, I was going to take it off anyway", he pulled to a stop, and everyone was staring at him because of his yelling. He unbuttoned the shirt and was now shirtless. Every girl in the room gasped and the boys and Bonnie were fuming.
God, I despise him! Bonnie thought to herself.
