A/N: Okay so sorry if this is late, and any spelling errors (did not get chance to really go through it much this week) and hope you enjoy the new chapter!
Bonnie and Kai are finally set to meet for real, and there is a little surprise at the end. Now I know this was cliche and ridiculous in show canon, but I'm taking the idea and making it better. Believable, at least. It's not going to end in the same awful way show-canon did. Please review and let me know what you think, even if it's just 'okay' . xD
TJBinx: Just in case it takes forever to update Fascinare, I will answer your question here. :) You're very right in that I always write in 3rd person. Which is why writing Fascinare can be hard, because I forget how to write in 1st person. Reason I did it is because we never got insight into Bonnie's head/thinking on show, and so I thought it would be better to tell it from her perspective. Especially since after her Grams died, was an important development stage for her, and we never see it! So thought I would give Bonnie a voice in her own spin off- sort of way :). The other stories were from a more mature Bonnie's perspective, and has more to do with Kai than Fascinare does.
Don't Have To Look Back Now
They were already kissing before any pleasantries could be exchanged. Elijah had easily lifted her and placed her against the hard wall, kissing her savagely. She indulged in his scent she had missed so much when lost in hell. A tangy spicy scent that was uniquely his own. She missed that smell, she had missed the soft lips that were now ravaging her own.
She could tell he had missed her too, by the way his hands gripped her protectively. The way he kissed her like a starving man, his tongue dueling with her own. She let out a sigh of ecstasy. This had not been the reunion she had pictured, but it was good enough.
"Why did you leave without telling me?" he whispered against her lips.
She pouted when he had stopped kissing her to ask that question.
"I was dead Elijah, not on holiday." She sighed, looking away from him.
He pressed his soft lips against her collarbone, trailing kisses up her neck in apology.
"You should have came to me when you were in trouble."
He stopped kissing to stare at her with a stern look. She hated when he played the typical big-brother role, he was used to playing with Klaus. She maybe younger than him, but she had been through more than he could ever imagine. She had grown up long ago, and was not the sweet innocent little peasant girl he remembered so fondly.
"I don't need help Elijah. I have always relied on myself. Besides, you left me for your idiot brother, remember?" she stopped their little intimate encounter, to glare at him.
"I never would have left you Katerina, had I known what would become of you. Besides, I plan on making it up to you," he whispered softly against her ear. Tickling the sensitive skin there.
She tried not to giggle like a young maiden in love, but it was hard to contain her sultry smile. She really had missed his way of making it up to her.
"And how do you plan on doing that?" She whispered back.
He bit down softly on her lower lip, causing a sharp sting of pleasure to erupt in her lower belly. Her body becoming warm as he pressed his cheek to her jaw, rubbing against it like a cat.
"I'm currently staying in a nice hotel near here, with a very nice hot tub." He looked up at her, his eyes full of mischief.
She was certainly up for that. Wanting to delay their long talk she knew they would have to have. There had been so much they never told eachother, before they were separated. She was still angry at the rejection, but was happy to have him back in her life. The only man other than Stefan, whom she had truly loved.
"That sounds great, but shouldn't we discuss the white oak stake you're looking for?" she watched his expression change into a guarded one.
"Of course you would know about that. Your knowledge of all things happening around you, never ceases to amaze me Katerina." He frowned, but she could tell he was impressed.
"Nothing gets by me sugar, so why don't you tell me all about it?" She waited for his reply.
"We will discuss it back in our hotel room. We're currently canoodling in Bonnie and her friend's place of residence. I would hate for them to come back and find us here."
She folded her arms, as he put her down.
"Fine, but I want to know everything Elijah. No more secrets. I promised you I wouldn't keep anything from you, and I expect the same in return."
He nodded in agreement, and placed his hand in her own. They held on, smiling at one another like two best friends reunited. She really had missed having him around. He felt like the only person that really knew her, other than Kai, but she could never be sure with him. He was too much like herself to ever fully trust.
"let's go christen that hot tub then," she teased.
He grinned back in reply, as they used their vampire speed to rush to his hotel.
Bonnie:
Bonnie felt drained by the time she got back home. She was looking forward to a long shower and some serious rest. She had gone for a long walk, after she had left the handsome vampire at the club. She seriously needed some peaceful meditation to get ahold of the power buzzing inside of her. Her and Liv had started a class to practice yoga and meditation, as meditation would help their powers. She remembered how hypnosis had helped her when Shane had manipulated her, and wanted to try another similar method to get her powers under control.
She had barely got through the door when Liv grabbed her into a big hug.
"Damn Bonnie, why can't you ever answer your phone?" Liv's voice was full of concern.
Bonnie honestly didn't keep her phone on much. She had grown to hate it when living in Mystic falls, with everyone calling her for witch duties.
"Why? I'm fine! I just went to the club. Nothing happened," Bonnie reassured her.
"I know you went to find that evil vampire bitch. I was worried she might have got her friends to jump you or something." Liv crossed her arms, looking worried.
Before Bonnie could give her reason not to be concerned, Tyler came into the room with a box of pizza. Eating a slice while watching them with interest. She could already tell that Tyler had heard their little conversation.
"What vampire Bonnie? Caroline said you were spooked earlier, and Liv wouldn't tell me what's up. Please tell me you're not involved with vampires again." Tyler looked more peeved than Liv.
Bonnie sighed. Tyler had been behaving like a big brother to her ever since they both left Mystic Falls. It was nice if she was honest. Her and Tyler had never really been close when she had lived there. Despite both of them going through life changing supernatural drama, they had both been so wrapped up in saving themselves and their loved ones to notice eachother. Other than a few times, Bonnie always remembered Tyler being more of an acquaintance than friend. Even though they had basically known eachother all their lives. When they both had decided to move away from MF drama, Tyler felt apologetic towards her.
He blamed himself for never really being there for her, when she had suffered so much at the hands of vampires, and even other witches. He could obviously could relate, and wanted to make up for the fact he had never truly thanked her for saving his life several times. She had always wanted siblings, and was thankful every day that she had Liv and Tyler in her life. Even if she wasn't used to getting told off by others, considering how lax her Father had been when she was growing up.
"Tyler it's fine. I handled it." She made a big show of looking brave, but Tyler wasn't having any of it.
"Please don't give me that Bon. You shouldn't have to handle anything vampire related anymore. We left all that shit back in Mystic Falls, so why are you dealing with vampires? Just tell me where they are, I will be happy to stake them!" Tyler looked like he was ready to go on a killing spree.
Bonnie felt too drained for this. Not wanting to argue, and was thankful when Liv intervened.
"Look Ty, Bonnie is fine, I made sure of that. I will tell you everything later. Right now you got a whole box of pizza you have almost eaten, and we're starved! It's been a long day. Can we discuss the drama later?" she looked at Bonnie and Tyler, waiting for them to agree.
Bonnie nodded, and Tyler dropped the pizza on the bed. It looked like he wasn't going to ask any more questions.
"Fine, but later I want to know what the hell is up. Caroline went to get Stefan, and should be here soon. Guess we should save them some pizza," he looked longingly at the pizza box before him.
Bonnie was thankful Liv grabbed the box before Tyler had a chance to eat it all. Even though he didn't change into a werewolf, he certainly had the appetite of one.
"Well then I think I should hold onto it, before you eat it all Mr Pig. Bonnie sit down, you look like you're about to faint." Liv was looking at her with more concern.
She honestly did feel tired, and forgot she was holding a bottle of wine. Liv noticed it, and her eyes lit up.
"Oh good, you brought wine to go with this pizza. Perfect combo," she nodded at the bottle Bonnie held.
"Oh this? It was a gift." Bonnie was going to share it, but Liv put her hand up.
"Then you hold onto to it Bon. You deserve it, with everything you have to put up with. Besides, I got to get up early tomorrow for an interview with one of the local baseball stars. Tyler is coming with me," she glared at Tyler.
Tyler flopped on the bed, covering his eyes.
"Do we really have to leave so early?" He sighed.
"Yes, and you were the one who hassled me to get this interview Ty, so you will be going!" Liv put on her best stern mother voice.
Bonnie smiled. Both Liv and Tyler had grown up so much since they had left Mystic Falls. Sometimes she felt like she was still growing up, compared to her good friends. She didn't feel as put together as a person as they seemed to be. Getting ahold of her expression magic was draining, and it often interfered with her life. Not to mention her sense of loyalty to Mystic Falls. Even though she had left it, she still felt like a part of her was dwelling there, still not ready to leave.
"Do you want a wine glass Bonnie?" Liv asked through a mouth full of pizza.
She snapped out of her daze, nodding in reply. She took the wine glass from Liv and filled it right to the top, knocking it back. She was not a drinker, but it did help soothe the chaotic thoughts and power consuming her. The wine worked faster than it usually did. She felt a nice light buzzing energy surrounding her, and guessed it must be the wine having an effect.
So caught up in the energy buzz the wine caused, she didn't hear the doorbell go.
"I will get it. Bonnie, did you do something to my protection spell on the door? It feels off. Like something has trespassed here," Liv asked.
Bonnie had forgotten all about it. The spell had been affected when she had invited Elijah in. The spell became ineffective against vampires, once she had invited one in. It was mainly against those with evil intentions, to ward off thief's. She would have to re-cast the spell, but didn't want Tyler to know about Elijah. Liv had obviously kept silent about her dealings with the Original, and didn't want to give him further reason to worry about her.
"It was playing up. It's been a while since we did that spell, so I will re-cast it." Bonnie hoped Liv didn't bring up vampires or Elijah.
Of course Liv was smart enough to know what was up, and smiled in reply. Not asking anymore questions. She went to get the door, and Bonnie almost squealed with delight when a angry-looking Caroline stood there with Stefan.
"Gosh, you guys took your time opening up. Are you going to invite us in, or should we have the reunion party outside?" Caroline's sarcasm was back.
Bonnie had missed that, and Stefan's charming smile in reaction to her words. He hadn't changed at all, of course. His vampire beauty continued to make him look as young as when she had seen him last. His eyes looked more tired than usual, but he was the same handsome Stefan she had known since her teenage years.
"Promise not to feed on us? We have a no-vampire feeding-policy, in this place," Liv teased.
Caroline rolled her eyes, and Stefan laughed at Liv's little joke.
"We promise to not feed on you, unless humans are out of stock," he grinned.
Tyler threw him an not-so-amused look, while Liv laughed. Bonnie was feeling too light-headed and out of it to laugh with them.
"I was kidding, for the record." Stefan informed them, based on Tyler's hostile look.
"We know, come in and make yourselves at home." Liv gestured for them to sit on the chairs she had brought out for them.
"Oh goody, an invitation! Only took you guys a century," Caroline grumbled in annoyance.
"It's not like you guys grow old," Tyler informed her.
"Thanks for reminding me of my immortality Tyler. Why don't you tell me something I don't know?" It sounded like they were having a lovers quarrel.
"Okay honey, settle down. We come in peace guys." Stefan broke up the argument, standing himself inbetween Tyler and Caroline.
He saw Bonnie and smiled. She was honestly so out of it, she had almost forgotten them being there. She felt like she was floating in space, watching the scene from above.
"Hey there stranger," Stefan sent a warm smile her way.
He walked towards her and pulled her in for a big hug. She was a little taken back by it, even though it was not the first time Stefan had hugged or comforted her. He was always kind to her, even though she did blame him for many things. She was still grateful to have him in her life. Hugging him back, while trying not to throw up.
"You okay?" He asked, sensing there was something wrong with her.
"Sure, I'm fine," she lied.
She thought she must have been pro at it by now, always tricking her friends into thinking she had everything together; when it was evident she didn't.
"You sure Bon? You look a little peaky," Liv added.
Stefan nodded in agreement, and Tyler and Caroline had stopped arguing to look at her curiously.
"Your heartbeat has sped up above normal rate too," Stefan stated.
Curse his vampire senses!
Bonnie thought, annoyed that everyone knew there was something wrong. Before she could inform them once again that she was fine, she fainted on the ground. Her head spinning, her ears drowning out the concerned voices of her friends.
Kai
Bonnie had left Kai a little while ago, but it felt like much longer. He had to restrain himself from stopping her. Wanting to take off his little magical mask and reveal his true self to her. He had just formed his master plan, putting it together. There was now nothing stopping him from finally revealing himself and his plan.
Then the thought occurred to him, why didn't he? Technically there was nothing stopping him in that moment, so why not reveal himself?
This is what you've been waiting for, you big pussy!
He was pacing up and down his luxurious apartment. Deciding to pour himself a glass of wine to wallow in, while surveying the beauty of LA at night. Flashing lights and tall buildings, with the dark sky painting a scenic background. His vampire hearing could pick up noises of all cars within vicinity. It was usually therapeutic, but this time it was distracting as hell.
He was in no mood to relax. He would wait for Katherine, and let her in on his little plan to finally reveal himself to his Bonster. Also, the plan he had for Damon Salvatore. He had been thinking, and he knew Bonnie was not the only one he should punish. He had worked on the important spell, after knowing Bonnie had fainted. The magic he had cast on the wine had worked, and he had to work on the rest. He first needed Katherine. Making sure his deviant little vixen partner didn't interfere in his plans. He knew she had a relationship with the original vampire they called Elijah. The one his little Bon was currently hanging out with. He needed Kat in his plan to distract the original, so he could corner Bonnie.
He had already done the big spell. It was draining, to say the least. He needed to get some magic juice later, from any roaming witch he could find. He was happy when his vampire hearing detected the footsteps of loud heels against the floor, as his door opened to reveal Katherine.
"And just where have you been?" He asked, approaching her.
"I was busy, Dad, what's the problem?" She gave him an agitated look.
He could already tell what the little minx had been up to. She smelt of lust and another male, probably vampire by his guess. It annoyed him that she was off having fun, while he had spent all his energy working on a big spell that would hopefully benefit them both.
"You smell of sex and fun, while Daddy has been working his ass off." He pouted like a child.
"Working on what, exactly?" She did a little shy gesture of tucking a lock of her curly hair behind her ear.
That wasn't usually like her, being shy. He guessed it must have been the vampire she had been looking for.
"Elliot, right?"
"Elijah! Actually. Look Kai, forget who I've been with or what I got up to, what have you been doing? I can sense the magic in here." She gestured to the whole room, indicating she knew he had been doing magic.
He smiled, happy with her astute observation.
"Yes, I have been doing a little magic. Time for a little pay-back, and the devil has come to collect." He rubbed his hands together in excitement.
"What did you do?" She now sounded worried.
She knew he had it for Bonnie, and Bonnie was currently working with Elijah. Although her concern was for Elijah, not the witch. She still felt a little anxious, knowing what Kai could do.
"Did you hurt her?" She thought she might aswell state the obvious.
"Not yet. If anything, I gave her what she wanted. See little Bon likes to sacrifice herself like a little lamb for her best friends, so I thought I would give her a nice little related gift. Not just Bonnie though, oh no, I want that little Salvatore bitch Damon to pay too. I know you didn't like him either." He looked at her, checking her response.
She was concerned when she heard Bonnie mentioned, but smiled upon knowing he would punish Damon. She wanted a little payback herself. The man had treated her like dirt, and made sure she suffered before her death. Still, she really didn't want anything to do with the plan. She liked being hidden, and Kai's plan could let the whole dumb Scobby Doo Mystic Falls gang - know she was still alive.
"Damon huh? I'm listening." She kept her face neutral.
"Well I would have tortured him directly, and believe me, it was tempting. Still, someone like him isn't phased by torture. Oh no, what really hurts, is going for the source of their affections. That being your twin, Elena. So you could say our dear little Elena is comatose right now, and you want to know the thrilling bit? Bonnie is sort of tied to her." He laughed like a mad man.
He laughed till he had tears in his eyes, like it was the most funny joke ever. Holding his sides while he bent over laughing. Katherine was shocked to say the least. She couldn't really speak. She had expected some form of torture from him, but not that. She forgot he was powerful enough to create such a spell.
"So what? She is asleep? And what do you mean Bonnie is tied to her? " Her face showed her confusion.
He stopped laughing and gave her an exasperated look, before explaining.
"Well, Bonnie's a witch, so witch's have a short lifespan compared to most supernaturals. They live as long as humans do, maybe longer if they use magic. I set up this little spell so that Elena stays asleep, as long as Bonnie lives. Okay maybe not until then, but she doesn't have to know that. I mean I had to make sure she wasn't going to break this spell, so I concentrated on making it concrete. She's not breaking this spell, unless I decide to show a little mercy." He smiled.
Katherine couldn't believe what she was hearing. She honestly should have been a little happy that precious little Elena was finally put away, but she wasn't jumping for joy. It was almost sad, but she didn't dare tell Kai that. She wanted her daughter Nadia back more than anything, and had been his partner to make sure she got her back.
"So what do you want from me?" She knew there was obviously something.
He grinned in reply, happy she asked.
"Ahh Kat, always one step ahead. What I need from you sweetheart, is for you to keep your little lover out of the way till I confront Bonnie. I'm sure that should be easy for you, seeing how you must have distracted him earlier. I guess you won't have problem in that department." He gave her an all-knowing smirk, that made her want to slap him.
"That won't be a problem." She sighed.
She did plan on keeping Elijah out of Kai's plan for revenge.
"Good. Then I guess it's time to visit my little Bonnie."
He laughed again like a man gone mad, and she shivered at how she could feel the waves of malicious excitement coming from him
