Bonnie came out of the shower drying her hair to notice that the loft that once held two men now held none. She shrugged. Maybe, she scared them off. Eh, it wasn't so bad. She could finish her room in peace and even get stuff moved into it later on in the night. She smirked at how long it was taking just to get into her room. It was the one part of the place that needed the repair. She tossed the towel aside and put her hair back up in a ponytail as she walked towards her room. Opening the door she froze and crossed her arms feeling suddenly annoyed. The room was finished. Her face crinkled angrily and she just huffed.

The whole room was painted. She didn't even get to finish and at any moment she could burst into a temper tantrum. Her fists clenched.

"Just breathe…" she gritted through her teeth

Couldn't she do anything on her own? She wanted to scream.

"Stefan!" she screamed

There was no answer.

"I can't believe you couldn't let me do this all on my own. I'm not forgiving you for this. You can't just do that. Some things need to be done by hand. What am I even going to do for the rest of the week!" she babbled

It went on and on and Stefan just stood there leaning against the wall listening. He never knew she had that much fire in her, but it sure was entertaining to listen to. He could only imagine the look on her face. After a few minutes, she just stopped. Bonnie walked out into the living room and plopped down on the couch.

Slyly he just slid in and sat beside her as she flipped through the channels on the tv. She didn't even notice him there. Or she did and was ignoring him. Stefan went with the second one.

"You're seriously mad." He said looking at her incredulously

"Well, yeah." She pouted

"And you're pouting." He trailed off

"Am not." She protested

Stefan chuckled and put an arm around her shoulders.

"Next time I'll listen okay?"

"Pfft." She rolled her eyes

She looked at him flatly.

"You listen? It's amazing." she said sarcastically

"Well, there was a reason for doing that." He said

"And that would be?"

"So, you couldn't avoid me when I ask about Christian." He said

Bonnie got up right then and started moving away.

"He's just…"

"Just what?" he asked

Bonnie looked at him.

"Not your concern. I'll call Meredith alright? That is if she's not already on her way." She said

"What happened while you were in New Orleans? If you there long enough to know Justin then there was something."

"Just stop Stefan." She said shocked that he kept pushing

He wasn't sure at first, but now he knew. There was something there and she wasn't talking. The look on her face was conflicted.

"It has nothing to do with you. Why don't you just go?" she said

He didn't move at first. Standing, he thought about walking over to her to console her, but just walked out instead. The door closed quietly. He heard her take a deep breath in an attempt to not cry. Her breath stuttered as she exhaled.

Not thinking about it anymore, Bonnie walked over to the corner where half of her stuff sat. She started hauling it all into her room. The only issue she had at the moment was the furniture missing. She shoved her boxes aside in the realization.

"Shopping it is."

Usually any girl would be excited about shopping, but when it was by yourself it wasn't all that great. Alone. She hated that word. Grabbing her jacket, Bonnie walked out the door and ran right into Justin.

"Whoa, slow down." He said stopping her

"Sorry." She said

"Going somewhere?" he asked

"Shopping actually." She said "You wouldn't want to go would you?"

"No way." He said shaking his head

"Oh it won't be that bad." She said "Don't be so dramatic."

She looped her arm through his and started for the stairs.

"Why don't we take the elevator? I mean it's in our loft." he said

"We're already in the hall heading for the stairs." She replied

"Ah." He said nodding

He sighed feeling like it was going to be a long day. To his own surprise though they looked through only one store. It was a huge furniture store and all of it was being delivered and setup as they left. Bonnie had picked out the things for her room and paid for it in her own money.

"Where'd you even get the money for this?" he asked as they left

"You. I did hustle you a lot. I just decided to invest it is all." She said with a small smile on her face.

"So, why did we really come out into the city?"

She looked at him like a retard.

"I would prefer not to sleep on the floor of my room." She snarked

He chuckled. It wasn't hard to see that something was wrong.

"So, where's your old friend?" he asked

"Probably back in Fell's Church." She replied "I shoved him out the door."

"Really? And I wasn't there to see it? Jeez, I really do miss out on all the fun." He said sounding all defeated

Bonnie nudged him.

"You don't miss much. I don't have that exciting life anymore."

"Do you miss it?"

"A little." She said "Not enough to go through it again though, that's for sure."

"Good, because I'd kick your butt if you dragged me into it."

"Oh highly doubtful!" she exclaimed

They both laughed as they turned the corner. Neither noticed the follower behind them. He watched her. She was exquisite. Even more, she was a witch. Not just any witch either, she came from a long line of witches, powerful ones. It was surprising that she'd stopped using her powers though. He'd been wondering why. She never used them against him either. It was strange. Something stopped her. That look on her face though…he couldn't decipher it. He didn't like her new choice of friends though. At least when she was with his sister, he could watch her. Now he could do so without his pain in the ass twin. He had a few days till she was on his tail so, things would be alright for now.

"I'll get you back." Christian murmured
