CosmicAngel I am glad you love this story so much and I'll try to update sooner. If you haven't please check out my new story We Are The Afterlife.


"What do you mean you kissed her?" Damon yelled into his phone. Stefan called Damon in a panic when he got home and Katherine wasn't there. Stefan paced the room, while Damon grabbed the railing to the balcony of his hotel room. "I hope you know you just signed your death certificate."

Stefan put his hand on his face, and Damon pinched the bridge of his nose. "I don't know how to tell her," Stefan groaned.

"I hope you don't plan on lying, because there is no grantee you'll know when she finds out, knowing Katherine-she will. If you tell her at least you'll see the end coming, and you won't have to worry about being poisoned."

"She wouldn't do that," Stefan yelled.

"Let's not pretend like your girlfriend isn't a psycho bitch. While I love her, she's crazy. You never cross a crazy person especially when they are female."

"Can you just help me," Stefan moaned.

"I am you're not listen. You need to tell her that Melissa kissed you. Just like that. Melissa kissed you and you told her were you stood. Katherine will understand," Damon stressed.

"I kissed Melissa back, and making it seem like her fault isn't fair. I'm just as much at fault," Stefan pointed out.

"I can hear the brooding in your voice. I think you've progressed to the personification of a sad sack of shit," Damon groaned. "You need to find your balls and get your shit together if you plan on keeping Katherine and your life."

"I really don't appreciate the manner in which your help is coming."

"Did you really pull me always from my horny wife to sass me as I try to help you clean up your mess?" Damon hissed. "Do what the hell I said," he yelled at his brother.

"I know bu"- Stefan stopped talk when he heard the front door open. He peered around the corner to see his distraught sister coming to the kitchen. Her face was pale and tearstained and she was hiccupping hard cries. "What's wrong with you?" Stefan asked.

"Who are you talking to?" Caroline asked through her tears.

"Damon," Stefan said getting her some tissue.

When he came back over to her she grabbed his phone and turned the speaker on. "I need you two to be honest with me," she said between sniffles.

"Is that Caroline?" Damon said barley making out her voice.

"Yeah something happened," Stefan said filling him in. "What's going on Care?"

"Did you know that Klaus was fucking Hayley?" she demanded.

"Wow?" Damon said through the phone. "I'm going to kill that son of a bitch."

"No we didn't know, are you sure that's true?" Stefan said not believing that one of his oldest friends would hurt his sister so badly.

"He was with her in the office. We were supposed to meet today and talk about the divorce and he never showed. I can't believe I didn't know this was happening. He made me feel like shit for Tyler and now this," Caroline said looking up at her brother.

"Everything is going to be okay Care. I'll get Elijah or Finn to speed this divorce up and you can continue to move on with your life," Stefan said as he held her.

"I'm so stupid for even believing that he had changed. I can't believe that he had the audacity to keep holding on to that lie of a marriage after what he did to me," she said through gritted teeth.

"And he's going to pay for it," Damon said not being able to stomach his sister's pain.

"Don't worry about me, have fun with Bonnie you'll be home soon enough," Caroline said.

Damon felt a twinge of guilt settle in his stomach. He didn't plan on coming back home, and soon, he'd shut all communication off with his siblings. He knew this was going to happen and he didn't know how to let go. Stefan and Caroline were going through some serious shit, and he was just going to cut them off. What a craptastic piece of shit he was turning into.

"I'm going to make sure you're divorce goes through and Klaus is going to sign on the dotted line willingly," Damon promised. "Stefan do what I told you to and make things right with Katherine."

"What happened with Katherine?" Caroline asked.

"It's not a big deal," Stefan lied.

Caroline stood with her hands on her hips. "Stefan Antonio Salvatore, don't you dare lie to me," she yelled managing to break him with her piercing mom stare.

"I kissed Melissa," he confessed as Caroline gasped.

"You cheating piece of shit," she said hitting him with her purse. "How dare you do such a stupid thing?!"

"Melissa kissed you!" Damon yelled, "That's why you say she kissed you. So you don't get the crap kicked out of you."

"I kissed her back it's still wrong," Stefan said.

"So you didn't kiss her and you pulled away. That means more than you think," Damon said.

"Are you really taking advice from him?" Caroline snorted.

"He is the only one of us in a thriving relationship," he admitted.

"Right you are little bro."

"And he wouldn't be in said relationship if it weren't for us," Caroline added.

"That is rather true," Stefan said joining Caroline in teasing Damon.

"Hahaha, you guys are so funny. And as much as I love you guys I'm going to return to my horny wife. Have a great time being miserable missing me," he gloated.

"I think I miss Bonnie more than I miss you," Caroline said.

"Yep I miss her and that skimpy yellow swimsuit of hers," Stefan added.

"Bye," Damon said ending the call as soon as Caroline and Stefan's laughter filter through the line. Damon huffed and puffed as he turned around and was met by his wife his anger at his siblings went away.


Moments before she joined Damon on the balcony she was facing her own crisis back at home. Katherine had found something on Teresa. Something that could get them information on Giuseppe, but there was a problem. Actually a plethora of problems, one of them being Tyler's involvement. "You said that you had my back in this Bon-bon," Katherine sneered into the phone.

"Yeah I did because we were in this together. What would possess you to get Tyler involved in this?" She whispered into the phone constantly looking to make sure Damon wasn't coming back in.

"Maybe it was the fact that my partner in crime is eight hours way by plane and never coming back," she yelled.

"What do you mean never coming back?" Tyler asked.

"See this is why you shouldn't have brought Tyler into this," Bonnie freaked.

"Will you calm down before Damon walks in on you," Katherine said trying to sooth her. "Bonnie and Damon are extending their honeymoon indefinitely in a few weeks. If you utter a word of this to anyone, I'll kill you," she said threatening him.

"You know asking politely is still a thing to normal people," Tyler sassed.

"Yeah well I have to make a strong case for my strong opinions. And Bonnie you need to do your part and flush out more information on Allister and his death from Damon by the time you two are state side again."

"Fine, but this is where Tyler's involvement begins and ends," she stressed.

"I'm not going to just let her do this on her own if you're not coming back Bon," Tyler groaned. "Teresa isn't as harmless as she looks."

"Well please try not to get caught by Caroline," Bonnie said knowing Caroline would catch on to something if he started to spend more time with Katherine.

"I'm going to propose to her soon, and she and Klaus are moving forward with the divorce so it's keeping Stefan occupied that's the problem," Tyler said as if he and Caroline getting married was nothing.

"You're going to what?" Katherine and Bonnie yelled together.

"Propose, it's not that big of a deal, it's been a while and we talked about it."

"I can't believe this I'm so happy for you guys," Bonnie cried.

"You made a pregnant woman cry, are you proud of yourself?" Katherine said as she glared at Tyler.

"Shut up Kat."

"Look, you two need to stop. If we want this to work we need to be able to trust each other completely."

"I trust Tyler with my life, but if we like each other out of the blue that's a red flag."

"She just knows she can't stop being a bitch long enough for us to like each other," Tyler said making Bonnie smile.

"Ha," Katherine smirked. "Bonnie you need to get on the Allister situation. Tyler you need to ensure that we get the file from Elijah's office, and I'll find something to keep Stefan busy," Katherine said.

"I wonder what that would be," Bonnie snorted.

"We all know Kat has a rather short list of skill sets no matter how impressive they are," Tyler smiled.

"You sound like Damon," Bonnie chuckled.

"Way to insult me."

"That's a compliment," Bonnie said.

"No it's not, and don't let him make you believe that," Katherine warned her.

"I'm going to enjoy spending time with my husband, and then I'll email you guys what I can get on Allister. Have a good night, and please don't kill each other," Bonnie begged.

"Love you Bon-bon," Katherine said.

"And Tyler good luck with the proposal make it big, but sweet."

"Thanks Bon I will," he said before Katherine ended the phone call.


Rudy held the box containing Bonnie's case files. He slowly approached his desk and threw down the box. Around him the office was immersed in chaos as usual. He popped open the lid and looked at the contents. Inside the box was; Bonnie's passport and wallet, and a few folders outlining her case. This was all he had to go on to find his daughter. Her call couldn't be traced. But the simple fact that he knew she was alive was enough. His faith was restored and his promise was renewed. He was going to bring Bonnie home by any means necessary.

"You called," Jonas Martin said knocking on his partner's door.

"Yeah I have a dilemma," Rudy said sitting on his desk.

"That can't be good," Jonas said taking a seat. He studied Rudy for a moment trying to read him. Jonas knew about the call and how hard Rudy was trying to cross his Ts and dot his Is with this case. They had gone over every lead they were given in the few weeks that followed Bonnie's message.

"It's Abby. I haven't told her about the voicemail yet," he said as Jonas looked worried. "I know that look is followed by a lecture."

Jonas laughed. "You know what I always say. If I weren't a detective I'd be a teacher. I think you should have told Abby the second she and Shelia got home."

"What if this leads to nothing? I don't want to let her down again," Rudy confessed.

"You did everything by the books, and there isn't much we can do about the outcome. We have proof that Bonnie is still out there somewhere, and we're going to get her," Jonas said as he stood. "So put your game face on, and tell your wife."

"Thanks, for everything."

"If it were Greta you'd do the same for me."


Elijah walked into Klaus's office unannounced to see his brother in the throes of pain and regret. Klaus was drinking away his sorrows away. "What's got you out of sorts?"

"My own stupidity. All along I've been trying to figure out the right way to get Caroline back. I fault tooth and nail for our marriage to work. But the second she opens up, the moment I get a chance to fix it all. I ruin it," he said with a cold laugh. "I ruined everything."

"I'm sure you did a grand job of it," Elijah said as he poured his brother a cup of coffee.

"You have no idea. Caroline saw us in the office," he laughed be for he took a sip.

"She saw who?"

"Hayley and I," he confessed.

"I thought that was over," he said moving farther away from Klaus' desk.

"It was, well it is. It just happen rather suddenly."

"I can only imagine," he smirked.

"Caroline just took off, all I saw were blonde curls."

"Good for her." Elijah said with a proud smile. Nick glared at his brother with hurt in his eyes. "Now Niklaus let's not pretend like the girl doesn't deserve better."

"I'd hardly consider that barbaric jockstrap better."

"He treats her like a queen, she glows when they are together."

"She glowed with me."

"She did before you and in the beginning and then somewhere along the way you both because miserable. It happens and fortunately for you two it happened when you two were young. There is still time for you to be happy and to found someone else."

"I've never felt the way I do when I'm with her. I'd rather be miserable with her than happy with anyone else."

"So you care nothing for her happiness essentially."

"Essentially," he shrugged. "I'm not going to lose my wife."

"About that. I came here because we have a problem," he said.

"We always seem to have a problem."

"This is a really pivotal one. Rudy Hopkins has reopened Bonnie's case."

"They led Bonnie to rest. Her ashes are sitting in an urn on the mental of their fireplace. I saw the pictures myself," Niklaus yelled. "How long is he going to be a thorn in my side?"

"This isn't good with the kids we're bring in from Vancouver we have to stop the shipment."

"There's no way around that Mason went out last night to meet the truck. We need these kids and they are almost here," Klaus yelled.

"We need to get Stefan on this and let him know this is going to be a long stay."

"It can't be Giuseppe has a buyer for a little girl and I'm in negotiations for another. We get them here and out as quickly as possible and work on handling the fall out."

"We need to get Damon and Bonnie home."

"I'll get Caroline on it. I'm sure he wants to kill me anyway," Nik smiled.


Giuseppe sat at his desk trying to finish the paper work for a little girl he sold to an old war vet and his wife. The couple seemed eager to have someone to watch their twins and twelve year old Jasmine Welch was that someone. He had just gotten off the phone with Damon who was due back home a week ago. He knew in his heart something was off with his son, but he didn't want to believe it.

"I have an update for you. One you won't like," Teresa said as she entered his office.

"Well, have a seat," he said getting up to fix them both a glass of scotch.

"I saw Katherine with Tyler again. They're doing something I don't know what it is though," Teresa said as she rubbed her temple.

"That doesn't seem too bad. Get Whitney in there with Tyler or bring it to Caroline's attention we can sniff her out."

"I'm on that one, I'm worried about your reaction to this," she said giving him a manila envelope.

Giuseppe open the envelope and took out the pictures. They were two of Damon and Bonnie in Paris and then there was an ultra sound. Giuseppe looked at the previous pictures and noticed Bonnie looked a little heavy in the stomach. She was pregnant and there was nothing he could do to stop the baby from being born. He felt a pain shot up his arm and started to roll his shoulders.

"Take an aspirin," Teresa said getting one out of her purse.

"How far along is she," he asked as he took the pill and washed it down with scotch.

"Four or five months. That's not all. Damon got the house. There were movers there yesterday bring in some furniture and a contractor is fixing up the kitchen."

"What did I tell you to do?"

"Get rid of Katherine and Bonnie."

"This," He yelled as he shook the pictures in her face. "Isn't what I told you to do Teresa," he yelled at her.

"Calm down before you have a stroke," she said in a soft voice. "I'm going to take care of it."

"NO!" he yelled. "You keep an eye on Katherine I'm handling Ms. Hopkins on my own."

"Giuseppe, don't push him."

"Push him. He's half way around the world with his whore wife. Where am I going to push him? He already made up his mind that he wasn't coming back. You failed now I'm going to fix this. If you want to help get my son on a plane NOW!" he demanded.

"Yes sir," she said gathering her things.


Bonnie set on the bed looking through Damon's laptop for anything that could lead to Allister. She found a few files on Teresa, but none of them showed her anything new. She was sure that there had to be something on Allister's disappearance. He and Silvia had the same background story. They were both old money and had connection in the trading world going back to Columbus landing in the new world.

"What's so interesting there," Damon said coming into the room and undressing.

Bonnie quickly closed the files and put the laptop on the night stand. "Just thinking up some names," she said as she rubbed her growing belly. She was bordering five months and once they landed in Florence she was scheduled for a doctor's appointment.

"Anything good?" he said lifting the covers off of her feet and rubbing them.

"Well I was thinking something creative and meaningful for a name would fit our child."

"So Damon," he smiled.

"Something original," Bonnie stressed.

"Damon is the most original name I know," he smiled up at her.

"What if it's a girl?"

"That's the beautiful thing about Damon its unisex," he said making her laugh.

"Really?"

"Of course."

"Well what does it mean?"

"The most important."

"I think you mean the most full of shit," Bonnie laughed.

"Oh really," he said pulling her closer by her leg.

"A little," she admitted as she climbed on his lap. "I just want to pick the right one for him, not you," she smiled.

"Our kid is going to have a perfect life, because you're his mother. Not because you gave him a name that is fitting of the great thing he might do in the future."

"You could be right."

"Could?" he questioned.

"Yeah just a little right."

"Maybe I need to restore your faith in me," he said untying the string on her night gown.

"I think that is going to be a long hard job," Bonnie said as she removed his member from his boxers. "Really hard."

"Mmm," he moaned as he brought her core down on his member. "I bet you like it really hard," He whispered in her ear as he thrust into her wet core. Bonnie only moaned louder so Damon grabbed a hand full of her hair. "Do you like it really hard Bonnie?"

"Uh, god yes," Bonnie moaned as he kissed her neck and stroked deeper in her core.

"I love you Bonnie," he said as they reached completion.

"I love you more," Bonnie said kissing his cheek.
