Bonnie's POV
"What are we?" Damon asked me as I put my shirt back on.
"I-I don't know," I stammered. Truthfully I didn't know what we were anymore. "I mean, this could be our last night on earth."
Damon rolled his eyes dramatically. "Don't give me the last day on earth speech."
I grinned kissing him. "Well, it worked on me, didn't it?"
I heard Damon grunt displeased "You know my feelings for you are more than just wanting sex," he said breaking the kiss.
"I know. I just don't know what we even are if we survive tonight."
Damon pulled me close to him. "How about if we survive tonight, then we let nature run its course? Simple as that."
I licked my lips nervously. "Okay."
"Let's get this show on the road. The sooner Ethan is dead the better."
Damon's POV
I was stupid! I should have told her I loved her. What if I never got the chance again to tell her? But you did tell her before and she blew it back in your face. That was because she was with Stefan then. She's not now.
"How come you have a weird look on your face?" Meredith's voice asked bringing me out of my thoughts.
"I was thinking of the many ways I could kill you," I snapped not in the mood to put up with that psycho.
She snorted. "Yeah, right. You look like your in love," she said singing the love part.
"Am not!"
"Am too!"
"Am not!"
"Am too!"
"Am not!"
"Am not!"
"Am too!" I yelled realizing what I just said. "Son of a bitch!"
Meredith laughed.
"That was too easy," she said smiling.
"Shut up," I replied lamely.
Bonnie's POV
Not again! Can those too ever not fight?
"I swear they could be related for how much they fight," Alaric said leaning against his car that was parked in the woods.
"Well, it's a good thing their not or else they'd really kill each other," I said with a half smile and decide to change the subject. "I know this might be weird asking my teacher this but how are things going with you and Meredith?"
"So well that after graduation I was going to ask her to marry me," he said pulling out a velvet box from his jacket handing it to me.
"Wow," I said as I opened the box. It was a silver ring with a blue stone in it. It was gorgeous for an engagement ring! "This ring will make her faint." I said handing him the box back.
He tucked it safe away in his jacket. "I was afraid I have picked out a ring she wouldn't like."
"She's going to love it. I'm happy for you two."
"I know it will probably cost me my job once the word comes out, but I don't care. Meredith's worth it."
"Everything's going to work out for you two. I know it," I said giving him a reassuring smile.
He ran a tired hand through his short hair and sighed. "I'll just be glad when all of this will be over. Then I'm going to sleep for like a month," he said making me laugh. "Damon does care about you. He's just too big of an ass to admit it. It's like in elementary school when little boys pick on girls because they can't tell them how they really feel," he explained.
"Actually, Damon's admitted how he feels about me. I just don't know how I feel about him," I revealed.
Alaric looked at me surprised. "It's because you can't trust him. Am I right?"
I nodded. "I don't know if that makes me a horrible person because I know it took a lot of strength for him to admit how he feels."
"Would you two quit talking about me like I'm not even here," Damon said irritated from behind making us both jump.
I looked at Damon sheepishly.
"I told you she'd never trust you," Meredith said next to Damon.
"I see you brought me the Warlock," Ethan said pleased appearing from the shadows.
Damon approached him pulling Alaric along. "That I did," he said pushing Alaric towards Ethan. "Kill him for all I care. You know what? I'll give you the dark haired girl for free. She's annoying."
Meredith glared at Damon.
"And a little scary for a human," Damon added.
Ethan chuckled. "Don't tell me a vampire is afraid of a little measly human?" He said eyeing Meredith like she was already his.
"Take me!" Alaric growled. "That was the deal!"
"Actually, I made a deal with Damon that I wouldn't hurt the red haired girl. Anybody else is up for grabs."
He looked so evil and I saw Meredith tense up. I didn't blame her.
"Damon, don't you do this!" Alaric yelled. "Don't you let him take her!"
Damon smacked his lips together. "One second thought, kill the girl first," He said clutching part of Meredith's shirt in his fist. "It's be fun to watch the Warlock squirm."
"What the hell?" Ethan said knocking Alaric out cold. "After all I'm tired of looking for a mate. She'll do."
Damon practically shoved Meredith at Ethan.
General POV
Meredith was doing everything she could to get out of Ethan's grip but it wasn't working.
"Damon, how could you?" Bonnie screamed in horror as she watched her best friend be bitten by a-
Ethan screamed immediately after he had sunk his fangs into his prey. Smoke sizzled out of his mouth causing him to fling his prey away from him.
"What the hell is in her blood?" Ethan demanded as his body began to sizzle into flames.
"Holy water," Damon said. "She drank a whole lot of holy water mixed with vervain before we came."
The night glowed with fire as Ethan's body burst into flames. With a matter of seconds his body disintegrated into nothing but a pile of ash.
Hope this chapter made up for the wait. I know the silver bullets weren't used after all.
