Codename: Damon Salvatore

Chapter 23- Knowing The Real Me

Bonnie's P.O.V

"Damon!" I called, approaching the table on which he sat with his friends. They were all laughing at something.

He looked up at me, his blue eyes questioning. "What do you want, nobody? Who are you anyway?"" Revulsion flashed in his eyes like I'd never seen before.

I backed away, feeling sick. "I need to apologize for what happened," I replied.

"For what? I don't even know you," Damon said, waving his hand dismissively.

My eyes widened. "How? We were dating," I reminded him, coming a little closer. I saw that Matt and Harper were seated on the table.

Damon laughed then, an evil laugh. "Very funny, whoever you are. I would never have dated you. I'm Damon Salvatore," He said, pointing at himself and raising his eyebrows.

"What? But I swear we were dating. Right, Matt? I'm Bonnicilious, remember?" I asked, a hopeless look on my face.

Matt looked at me with raised eyebrows. "Do I know you? She's crazy," Then he was laughing too. Harper joined in and Damon did too, louder than ever. My heart broke into a million pieces…

….and that was when I woke up. I sat up, my heart pounding in my chest at my strange dream. It had felt so real because I knew it could actually happen. I looked around, shocked to find I was in a strange room. It looked like a masculine room with basketball posters and posters of girl singers that I didn't know. There was also a board which had photos on it. I hopped up and looked at the board, shocked to find that I was in almost all of the pictures. They were recent ones of Damon and I and there was some that were just me. I looked around the room and realized in shock that I was in Damon's room. What was I doing here? All I could remember was the party…

The door suddenly opened and a little girl with brown hair and the most piercing Damon like blue eyes came in, a doll in her hand. She rushed up to me a happy look on her face. "Bonnie, you're awake!" She exclaimed, jumping up next to me. She spread her hands out as if she wanted me to hug her.

I did and she held me close to her. "Hey…" I trailed off, knowing that this was probably Damon and Stefan's little sister.

"Rose," She responded, a big smile on her face. She was gorgeous to say the least. There was something about being a Salvatore that made them breathtakingly attractive. It was unfair that we all had to live in this world with them. They were angels belonging in heaven.

"Hiya Rose," I replied.

"Damon is right. You're gorgeous," She responded, sitting onto the bed and smiling at me. She hugged her doll to her chest.

"Thanks but I'm not. Where is your brother anyway?" I asked, curious as to why he'd brought me to his room and left.

"He went to the store to get some things for breakfast," Rose explained just as there was a knock on the door.

"Yes?" I called, and there was a gruff reply of:

"Can I come in?"

"Yes," Rose and I called at the exact same time. She giggled and I smiled a little at her cuteness. I ruffled her hair up just as Damon entered dressed in the same outfit as the night before and looking worried. His concern melted into relief as he saw us.

"Good. You're awake, Bon," He murmured, coming over to put his hand on my shoulder and rub gently.

I looked at him, confused. I would have thought we'd been broken up. I looked down onto my arm and noticed that the watch was still on my hand even after I'd given it to him.

"Yes," I replied, "I am. Damon, I'm confused," I looked at his hand and then at the watch, waving my arm in the air.

Damon sighed. "Could you give us a minute, Rose?" He asked his sister, a kind look on his face.

Rose nodded. "Okay. I'll call you when breakfast is ready," She smiled, before running out of the room, closing the door carefully behind her.

"I like your sister," I told him, trying to change the subject.

"Stop changing the subject," Damon looked amused.

I sighed. "I don't understand. I thought you hated me. I thought you'd broken up with me," I muttered.

Damon pulled me over to sit on the edge of the bed. "I felt I hated you when we were on the stage but then you passed out and I was anxious and I realized I was in love with the actual you. Sure, the traits that Anna and Elena and Caroline put into you made you attractive, but they were placed on top of the actual you. And I realized that your traits were the ones I liked the most. The ones I fell in love with. The others helped but they were the reason I loved you. The reason I love you," He corrected, looking down at me cautiously.

"So you're not breaking up with me because I'm a fake?" I asked, my heart swelling with happiness.

"No, I'm not breaking up with you. Everyone makes mistakes Bonnie. They make us who we are. They create us and they help us to move on. I decided that if that little mistake you made was going to come between us, I might not find somebody I like, I mean love, this much. Besides, I like the cute shy you better than the sassy one who played hard to get," He winked at me and I blushed.

"Damon, I'm truly sorry for everything. I know I hurt you but I was acting out of spite most of the time. I love you, Damon, and now I'm telling the truth, I promise. I'm never going to lie to you again," I whispered.

"I hope not," Damon teased, touching my nose lightly. He brushed my hair away from the side of my face before cupping my cheek. He leaned his face towards mine gently and then we kissed; we were having our first real kiss and it was amazing.

"So does my mom know I'm here?" I asked, trying to piece together the pieces of what happened last night.

"Not exactly. Elena called her and told her you were sleeping over at her house," Damon explained, his arm around my shoulder. "I have to say though, I like the truth better,"

I smiled, "Me too," I replied, "So what happened last night?"

Damon sighed, "You might want to lie back for this," He pulled me down onto the bed and we lay side by side, our faces a few centimeters apart from each other. I felt the warmth of his body near mine and I was ecstatic at the way things had turned out.

"Hmm?"

"Well, after you passed out the cops crashed our party saying we weren't allowed to use the warehouse because it wasn't our property and stuff like that and they made us clear out. We took everything away and then I took you home here before I went to go pick up the rest of the stuff. The cops gave us a warning or something… we're not allowed to use it again," Damon looked disappointed.

"I'm sure you'll find somewhere else. It's good that you only got a warning though," I told him.

Damon nodded. "Yes, I suppose," He took my hand in his and squeezed it a couple of times. I looked at him, reveling in the glory of his amazing eyes and his wolfish smile. He was everything I'd wanted in a boyfriend and I was astonished I still had him because of what I'd done.

"Did Caroline and the rest of them get home safely?" I asked, wondering about their safety. They'd turned out to be not so bad friends after they stood up for me on stage at the party.

"Yes, they did. Bonnie, though it might seem crazy in their twisted weird way, they actually like you and think of you as a friend." Damon explained.

I nodded. "Yeah, I figured that out when they took the drinks for me on stage," I murmured, just as someone knocked on the door again.

"Breakfast's ready!" Rose called through the door.

Damon sat up. "I'm starving. Are you ready to meet my parents?" He asked me, smiling a little.

"I look a mess," I ran a hand through my hair and rubbed my eyes a couple of times.

"No, you don't. You look pretty," He replied, looking at me like I was insane.

I blushed a little but shrugged. "Whatever then, come on," I took his outstretched hand and we hopped off the bed and started downstairs, following his little sister.

"Damon, thank you for accepting my apology," I whispered when we were about to enter the kitchen.

"It's okay, Bonnilicious," He winked at me before we entered the kitchen. I smiled all the way through breakfast, chatting and making small talk with his family. I was a little uncomfortable but I realized I'd withstand it all for Damon. We kept our hands inside eachothers under the table, squeezing for support every so often. I looked up at his blue eyes and smiled, knowing he was the one for me.

A/N: Super short, I know! I 'm sorry but the epilogue will be WAY longer I promise ;) It will have tons of Bamon and interactions with other characters and stuff..
