Enzo spent a good amount of time in his car after leaving Bonnie from their nice New Years dinner they were having. He was not expecting that he really wasn't. When she was just sitting in her bloody awful sweat pants on New Years Eve it just reminded him that she was missing out on so much. If she wasn't stuck there hiding from the armory Bonnie would probally be somewhere having fun celebrating enjoying her night. Then again there always seemed to be something with her so maybe not.

He knew she deserved to have a proper holiday celebration so he made it happen. He wasn't expecting anything to come from it. He wasn't trying to get anything out of it, he wasn't trying to seduce her. He let himself get a little carried away and he removed himself before they esculated any further. It wasn't just the promise he made Caroline to not make a move on Bonnie unless he was sure he was in love with her. He did not want to make things awkward for them when he visited her. He didn't want to complicate things besides she deserved better than him. Once they found out why the Armory wanted her Bonnie would go back to living her life without him in it. He kind of dreaded the day actually he had grown use to seeing her. He grew used to hearing her snarky comments, her horrible guitar playing, and the way her eyes lit up when ever she went on and on about her research. He would miss her.

He sighed. He needed to keep some distance between them maybe that way whatever these feelings were whether they were just lust or whatever maybe they would just go away.

It has been several weeks since New Years and he hasn't been to the cabin since. He took on a couple of jobs for Alex, they were jobs he didn't nessecarly need to take but he took them anyway. Maybe if enough time passed between them they could forget about anything almost happening and they could go back to normal.

When he went to the location things seemed odd. He looked around at the abandoned ware house. There wasn't any armory soldiers there. He took his gun and walked in cautiously as soon as he opened the door he was attacked with a wooden stake. He quickly caught it and then he looked to see his attackers and saw it was Jeremy Gilbert and Tyler Lockwood.

They both stood in defense position with Jermey holding a bow and arrow and Tyler holding another stake.

Enzo looked at them not happy to see both of them. This was the last thing he needed right now. He knew he couldn't fight them too much or he could end up killing them and he was pretty sure there was a certian witch at home who wouldn't be to pleased about that.

So he put his hands up in surrendor and said, "I come in peace."

"Oh, yeah, like we believe that for a second." Tyler said.

Then Jeremy pointed out his bow and arrow at him fiercely and in a demanding voice asked, "Where is Bonnie?"

"How should I know? The last time I saw her she cut my hand off." Enzo said.

"He's lying." Tyler said.

"Where is she? Enzo we know the armory are after her."

"They don't know where she is either same as me."

"Except you are lying I can tell." Tyler said.

Enzo muttered, "Uh. Bloody Werewolves."

Then he took a deep breath and said, "Relax Bonnie is fine, she is safe. I made sure of that."

"Why should we believe you?"

"Ask the doggy lie dector."

"He's telling the truth." Tyler said.

"I don't believe him for a second."

"Fine." He said and then he pulled in to his jacket pocket.

Jeremy pointed his Arrow even more but then Enzo said, "Relax, I'm just getting my phone. The best way to settle this is for you to ask the source yourself."

He then worked his phone and set up the Skype Ap. Then he called Bonnie. It took a while for Bonnie to respond, usually he didn't use this feature to call her, it was too dangerous if he got caught talking to her their whole mission would be in jeopardy.

Then Bonnie's face graced the screen her curly hair was scattered around her face. She looked like she just woke up. She almost took his breath away, even just waking up she looked amazing. He tried to settle himself and act as though she did not effect him so.

"Enzo?Is everything OK?" Bonnie asked immediately and suddenly worried.

"Just peachy."

"Why are you calling using this? You never did before." She said worry still etched in her voice.

"Nothing to worry about, I just needed to use it."

"Awwwww. Did you miss me?" Bonnie asked teasingly.

Normally he would tease her right back but he had an audience. He didn't say anything ready to show her Jeremy and Tyler.

Then she said, "Well, I think I could admit that I missed you."

He gawked at her surprised. She was surprising him more and more lately. This would have to top it though.

She put a stray curl behind her ear as she said it. She was waiting for his reply his words got caught in his throat it didn't help that he had an audience.

What was he supposed to say? That he missed her too? That he wished he was there? Then Jeremy coughed loudly and Enzo huffed annoyed.

Then he said, "The reason I called was that Jeremy and Tyler are here and I need you to tell them that you are fine and safe."

Bonnie's eyes widened and asked, "What?"

Then Jeremy grabbed the phone from Enzo and said, "Hey Bon."

"Jeremy!" She said in a state of shock.

"What is going on here?" Jeremy asked.

"I should ask you the same thing. Your not trying to kill each other are you?"

Then Enzo shoved Jeremy out of the way and said, "Don't worry I didn't hurt him. It's just a musunderstanding. They think I mean you harm just clearify it for them and we can go our seperate ways."

Then he handed the phone back to Jeremy.

Then once Bonnie saw Jeremy on the screen she said,

"Oh, yeah, I'm safe. Enzo is protecting me."

Then Tyler moved into where Bonnie could see him too and he said, "Bonnie the last time I heard about you interacting with Enzo he knocked me out during my turn. I almost killed you!"

Bonnie sat silent for a moment seeming to try to formulate something in her head.

She put her hand through her hair and said, "Enzo did not have to do this he is protecting me OK. That is what matters now and I trust him."

Both Tyler and Jeremy stared at her in disbelief.

Jeremy had a scowl on.

Then Jeremy looked at Enzo giving him the death glare.

Then Jeremy asked,"What is this some kind of Stockholm Syndrom thing?"

"Jeremy!" Bonnie yelled in scolding voice.

"So what are you two a thing now?"

"That is not your business Jer!"

Enzo looked at Bonnie's frustrated face and then at Jeremy angry face. Then he said, "How about I prove my intentions are honorable ones?"

"How could you possibly do that?" Tyler asked.

"I'll take you to her and you will see she is safe and protected and that way if anything goes wrong then you can always swoop in and rescue her."

Jeremy gaped at Enzo letting that simmer in his mind. Then he said, " us where she is now."

Then Bonnie said, "No."

Jeremy looked at Bonnie apalled and said, "Come on Bon, let us help you."

"No, Jeremy I am not roping you and Tyler into this. You guys have escaped all of the Mystic Falls craziness. You moved on from this."

"Bon, I didn't really go to art school I just left town being a hunter somewhere else. We found the armory and got help from them so we started working for them. After what happened to Tyler we left them but I ran into an old friend from the armory and he told us they were on the hunt for you for a long time. So just let us help you, you don't have to be the sacrificial marter this time."

Then Enzo said, "Maybe we should let them help. That way we have back up."

"We already have back up in Caroline and Ric. Caroline knows where I am now and besides we don't need back up. Jeremy, me and Enzo got this OK. You left Mystic Falls for a reason, we didn't get back together for a reason. You moved on with your life in whatever way you wanted to do that."

"What about you? You are putting your life on hold again."

"We are working on it. I will get my life back on track and I trust Enzo to help me to do that. He has been protecting me this long . I trust him."

Enzo had to suppress a satisfied smile as she said that. Her saying that meant everything to him.

Jeremy was about to say something else but Enzo cut him off, "She said her peice, she's not going to change her mind."

Jeremy gave Enzo his phone back and said, "Fine, whatever, I don't need this anyway."

Then Tyler said, "We do have friends in the armory they'll let us know if anything goes wrong."

Then Jeremy rushed out there in a huff and Tyler ran after him.

Enzo watched them for a moment as they left.

Then he turned to his phone Bonnie was still on his phone's screen.

"Sorry about that." Enzo said.

"Hey, you handled that pretty well." Bonnie said.

"Yeah, so did you. Thanks for sticking up for me, by the way." Enzo said.

"Thanks for not fighting him."

"Hey, you once told me it is not very attractive for guys to fight over you so..."

A smile formed on her lips and she said, "Thanks for listening."

Enzo smiled at that. Then he said, "Well, I better get going before someone sees us talking."

"Enzo, don't be a stranger. I mean I know you can't call or anything but if your staying away for any other reason then you have to then don't. OK."

"OK, I'll be back as soon as I can. I promise."

"I'm holding you to it." Bonnie said with faith and hope in her eyes.

It amazed him just how much trust she had in him. That face right there made him promise himself no more stalling he was coming home.
