AN: Hey! I am So Sorry that it has been a while for this update. I had to do a little research for whatever Matt is which you will find out when I am done blabbing. Thank you for all reviews and faves as well as alerts.
Disclaimer: I own nothing but the plot.
After the excitement of having Bonnie back settled down, it was time for some answers.
The group waited patiently for Mrs. Flowers to return from the kitchen with some of her calming tea.
When she did they each took a cup, though the vampires could have gone for something a little more O positive.
"Why don't we start with you Matt?" Mrs. Flowers suggested as she took a seat in an arm chair by the fire place.
Matt looked up at the mention of his name and gave a short nod in agreement.
To be honest, he would have much rather skipped this sit down all together.
He had been the only true human of the group, and it was something he cherished.
In fact he had planned to get away from this messed up world of the supernatural after Bonnie's wedding, but now?
Now his life was about to be turned upside down forever, he was about to learn what kind of freak he had become.
Was it too much to ask to live a normal life?
This was all the fault of the Salvatore brother's.
Ever since they had come into town, his life had been nothing but pure chaos.
First Elena falls in love with Stefan, and yes eventually he had moved on but only to have Bonnie fall in love with Damon.
Not to mention all of the evil forces that had tried to destroy the small town since their arrival.
Now he would never be able to live a normal life, because now he himself was some sort of supernatural creature.
He fidgeted on edge as he watched Mrs. Flowers silently converse with her mothers spirit.
To anyone who hadn't known the old witch, they would have thought she was crazy, but Matt had had plenty of time to get to know Mrs. Flowers and his respect for her had only grown.
He also had plenty of time to learn that her mother's spirit was a very reliable source and had never failed when they needed her wisdom.
Mrs. Flowers broke out of her spell and peered at Matt with enthusiastic interest.
"So what's the verdict?" He asked, hoping his nervousness didn't show through his voice.
"Mama says that you are a very special kind of vampire." Mrs. Flowers answered.
"But, that's impossible, I can hear his heart pounding from here… and might I add that it is not helping my newly acquired craving for plasma." Bonnie exclaimed.
Mrs. Flowers smiled, an excited gleam in her blue eyes.
"Ah, but it is very possible my dear. You see there are many varieties of vampire species, only we don't hear much about them. Matt, you are alive because part of your soul still lives, but to stay alive you
need to feed regularly-"
"Look if I was a vampire I would be craving blood, and trust me blood sounds far from appetizing to me." Matt shuttered as he said this.
"Your kind does not feed off of blood, it is souls you consume."
"So I am some sort of soul stealing freak? Great, well Damon I take back every chastise I have given you for drinking blood, because apparently I am a demon compared to you now."
Mrs. Flowers lost her patience for a moment.
"Look boy, if you want to understand about your kind you will not interrupt me. You feed on the energy of a person's soul, but you don't take their soul. As for how you achieve this it is beyond me. I
suspect your survival instincts will let you know how to feed much like your typical vampire does."
"But how did he become this?" Elena asked confused.
"My guess is that since he died and Bonnie tried to save him with her blood but was able to bring him back to life, it all somehow resulted in this." Mrs. Flowers explained.
Matt just sat in silence trying to take in all of this.
Part of him wished that Bonnie would have left well enough alone and left him dead, but he didn't have it in his heart to be angry with her.
After all if the roles had been reversed he wouldn't have hesitated to do the same.
He sighed heavily.
"As for Bonnie, you are an entirely different matter. Why you kept your powers is beyond me. There are many types of hybrids that are half vampire, but Witch isn't one of them. You can only be one or the
other. My only guess is that you have such a strong tie to the druids that what was impossible became possible for you. We may have to do some research yet."
"So we don't even know if the same perks of vampirism apply to her?" Damon asked, and though he tried to conceal it, a hint of worry was prominent in his tone.
"Maybe the word impossible was too strong a word, perhaps I should have used unheard of instead. As we all know nothing is entirely impossible."
Bonnie could see the worry in Damon's eyes as he gazed down at her, and though she was worried as well, it hurt her to see him in such a state.
"Thank you Mrs. Flowers, and to your mother as well, for looking into things for us. I guess we have some research to do tomorrow, but as for now I think I will call it a night." Bonnie said as she stood up,
with Damon mimicking her motion.
"Your most welcome my dear, and we will do everything in our power to help shed some light onto your situation."Mrs. Flowers smiled reassuringly.
Bonnie led Damon up the stairs by his hand, leaving the others to converse about whatever they wished.
Once in their room, Bonnie sat down on the bed, Damon remained standing and began pacing.
"Damon, it will be okay." She tried to reassure him.
He paused in his pacing at the sound of her voice.
"But we have no way to know that Bonnie. I was an idiot to not think of all this the moment I knew I was in love with you and that you loved me back."
Bonnie stood up walking until she was in front of him.
She put a gentle hand on his cheek turning his head to face her.
"It is all going to be okay. Mrs. Flowers is right, just because something is unheard of doesn't mean it's impossible. We will do some research tomorrow okay? We will find others like me and go to them for
answers… but tonight let's not think of any of that." She pressed a finger to his lips when he was about to protest.
"I just got you back, and tonight I just want to be with you in your arms, no worrying allowed."
With her new found strength she pushed him onto the bed, taking him by surprise.
She climbed on top of him and crushed her lips to his, kissing him with everything she had.
When she finally broke the kiss Damon smirked against her lips, both of them breathless even though they no longer needed to breath.
"Well when you put it that way, how can I say no?" He chuckled.
He flipped her over so that he now was on top of her, kissing her fiercely.
Unlike every other time he had kissed her, this time he held nothing back.
Before she had been breakable even as a powerful Witch, now she was his equal.
Though they had made love before, this was entirely a new experience for both of them.
Both surprising the other with every touch, kiss, and caress.
It was after, while Bonnie was fast asleep in his arms, that Damon really believed that nothing was impossible.
He had feared that he would never be able to hold his little bird again, yet here she was in his arms.
He knew then that they would get through this all and come out on top.
He also knew that while there was certainly going to be new challenges on the way, they would find a way to overcome them.
They would fight side by side no matter what, for the rest of eternity.
AN: so what did you think? I know everyone is anxious for the wedding! I am as much as you are, and there are only a few chapters left of this story so it should be really soon. Maybe the ch after next? We will see. I have not yet decided whether there will be a future sequel for this one or not. I say future because it will be a while before I work on any sequels besides the one I have already started. I would like to complete a few stories before all that plus as always I have new ideas I am working on but those too will not be posted until I complete some of the ones I am already working on. Well R&R and let me know what you thought of this ch. I know it isn't the longest one I have wrote but I wanted to give you something.
