Damon Logic
A.N: Hi I'm sorry for only updating only now but I made the dumb decision of watching season 2 of vampire diaries again and I found myself wanting to punch Damon in the face *sighs* so I decided not to write anything until I mentally got over that traumatising experience. Anyway my sincere and heartfelt apologies for updating this late please don't kill me *hides under blankets*. I will admit that this isn't my best chapter but I tried…that counts for something right? Oh and we passed 100 reviews! Woohoo *dancing around the house like an idiot* Thank you thank you thank you thank you….*plants kisses all over your face*
Chapter 27
When her emotions were off Elena noticed a change in the dynamics between Damon and Bonnie, she'd usually shrug it off because she didn't really care about what was happening between them.
Now that her emotions were on and her body was filled with nothing but rage, she could think of nothing better than to drive a stake through Katherine's heart and then to grab Damon and to mark him as hers right in front of Bonnie in more ways than one.
Stefan has been trying to get her mind off killing Katherine by making her work out, but it really wasn't doing anything other than making her angrier.
She saw the friendship blossoming between Caroline and Stefan and thought nothing of it because Stefan has chosen her over Caroline before. She thought the same when she noted how Damon would constantly be found hanging out in Bonnie's room, helping her with homework or just talking about lord knows what. But now? After she caught that kiss between the two of them, she couldn't help but feel betrayed.
As far as she was concerned Damon and she were still in a relationship. She doesn't remember breaking up with him, sure that night at the prom it seemed like a break up, but that's not what it was. She just wanted to hurt him, so he could stop trying to get her to flip her humanity switch. Of cause she loved him, he made her feel alive, like she was perfect just the way she was and that's what she wanted most of all.
And that's what she would get, she thought punching another concrete slab Stefan presented in front of her.
"And?" Stefan asked with amusement dancing in his eyes as he dropped the broken slab on the ground.
"That did nothing for me, how was it for you?" she asked with a bored expression on her face.
He laughed and lifted another slab.
"Again" he commanded and she kicked the concrete slab broken like it was nothing. "Good, now focus on letting it go" he said talking to her like she was a four year old.
"Or we can skip this part and you can tell me where she is so I can rip her head off" she said glaring at his amused expression.
"I don't know where Katherine is… and even if I did I wouldn't tell you" He said crossing his arms for added effect.
"Stefan, you're the one that told me to channel all of my emotions into one single feeling" she said incredulous.
"Yeah, I realise that but I just figured it would be…Love or hope or compassion, not unwavering hatred for a ruthless vampire that's 500 years older than you" he said in a mocking tone which she chose to ignore. "Alright give me 50 pull ups" he said motioning to the beam in the ceiling.
She turned around and jumped effortlessly up towards the beam and began her pull ups.
"You wanted to kill Klaus when you got your emotions back" she said pulling herself up.
"I know, and I couldn't" he said crossing his arms mentally sighing.
"You don't think I can kill Katherine?" she asked in disbelief.
Stefan decided to not voice his thoughts and evaded.
"I don't think you want to kill Katherine" he said mentally patting himself on the back.
"Maybe you're right, maybe I just want to feel the warmth of her chest cavity as I rip out her heart and watch her face as she realises that I took it from her" she said dropping down to the ground on the balls of the feet. "Nah, I just want to kill her, it's that simple…I'm gonna go shower" she said leaving the room as Stefan inwardly groaned.
"Hey what's up with her?" Betty asked entering the room as Stefan picked up the broken pieces of concrete.
"She wants to kill Katherine" he said shrugging as she leaned against the wall.
"Still?...Normally I wouldn't say someone is crazy…but you guys need to check that girl out…something's not quite right up there" she said motioning to her head.
"She's lost a lot over the past two years…I guess it's taking its toll on her mental psyche" He said throwing the concrete pieces in a crate.
Betty burst out laughing as he rolled his eyes.
"That's not funny" he said dusting of his hands trying to hide the smile on his face.
"Oh c'mon Stef, you just told a joke…the least you can do is laugh" Betty said pouting adorably.
"I did not just tell a joke, I just made an observation" he said pulling off his jacket and t-shirt.
"A funny observ- Woah Stef too much hotness this early in the morning get some clothes on" she said covering her with her hands but still peeking through her fingers at his well sculpted muscles.
He just rolled his eyes and headed for his bathroom to take a shower.
"You flatter me Betts" Stefan said from the bathroom to which she just rolled her eyes.
"Hey Stef could I borrow your car…pretty please?" she asked hopefully eyeing his car keys.
"Why?" he asked turning on the water.
"My car's in the shop and you don't have anywhere to go since all your friends practically live here now…c'mon, I'll be quick…I just need it for a hour or two" she murmured knowing he could hear her.
"Where you going?" he asked running his hands through his hair under the hot spray.
"I'm meeting Katherine" she said sighing which made him freeze what he was doing.
"Katherine?...why?" he asked turning his head slightly to hear her better.
"We need that tomb stone Stefan" she said biting her lip.
"I don't think that's a good idea Betty…What makes you think Katherine would give you the tombstone anyway?" he asked getting out of the shower and drying himself off and wrapping the towel around his waist.
"I have something she wants" she said lifting his keys and spinning them around her finger.
"And what would that be?" Stefan asked shaping his hair in the mirror with his hair gel.
"Wouldn't you like to know?" she said smirking, contemplating stealing his car.
"What? You're not going to tell me?" he asked walking out of the bathroom with the towel still wrapped around his waist
"Dammit Stef, clothes…get some on!" she exclaimed covering her eyes which just made him chuckle.
"Alright, but I hope you know what you're doing" he said but then was cut off by her squealing.
"Thank you thank you thank you thank you…" she said zooming out of his room.
…
Bonnie strolled into the grill and waved cheerily at Matt who waved back before returning to cleaning a table with a bored expression on his face.
She slid into a seat and pulled out Zeek's grimior with a sigh.
"Now where is that locator spell" she whispered to herself while flipping through the pages desperately trying to keep her mind from drifting back to the conversation she shared with Damon just a few hours before.
Flashback (2 hours ago)
"She's right you know" Damon said sitting down across Bonnie in the Salvatore library.
"About what?" Bonnie asked not looking up from her book but really hoping he wasn't talking about what she thought he was talking about.
"We kissed Judgy...twice…you don't think that's something we should be talking about?" he asked raising a dark eyebrow in amusement.
With a sigh Bonnie put down the book and sat back to look the vampire in the eye.
"I didn't think there was anything to talk about…you love Elena, she loves you… and I…let's just forget it ever happened" she said smiling hopefully.
"No can do… look obviously you have an attraction to me, and obviously I feel exactly the same way, and while I'm not completely sure about my feelings for Elena…It can't be that strong since I'm making out with her best friend" Damon said sitting back in his seat crossing his arms. "I'm not about to declare my everlasting love to you but I am going to be having a talk with Elena about our sham of a relationship" he said when he saw her about to argue.
She sighed and crossed her arms in frustration.
"I don't want to be the reason for your break up, I don't want a part of any of this" she said glaring at him.
"News flash Medusa, you already are a part of this…but you're not the reason for our 'break up', Elena and I were doomed from the start" he said as if just realising it. "And I wasn't asking for your permission I was just informing you so that you wouldn't feel so weird around her anymore" he said rolling his eyes at the way Bonnie would avoid eye contact with the doppelgänger.
"So this is what?...a courtesy?" she snorted before continuing "Look clearly Elena and you had strong feelings for each other….and now it doesn't feel that way to you because she had her emotions off but you know when this is over you'll end up right back with her, so stop fooling yourself" Bonnie said packing up her books about to walk away when he grabbed her arm and tugged at it until she fell into his lap.
"Normally you're the voice of reason here but since you're not I feel it's my duty as your friend to tell you…you're blind and delusional if you think my feelings for Elena haven't changed at all. I'm not saying I want to trade her in for you…I'm just confiding in you as my friend about my fading feelings for my 'girlfriend'" he said wrapping his hands around her waist.
Yet another example of Damon logic, she thought, he says one thing and does another. Here he is clearly saying that he wasn't trying to trade Elena in for her but then why were his fingers inching their way up her baby doll? And why was his face inching closer to hers.
Bonnie realised that this is where her dilemma clearly lied, instead of forcing herself from Damon's clutches she was finding herself growing comfortable in this position. She obviously didn't feel bad about Elena catching them or she would have tried a lot harder to fight her growing feelings for the blue eyed vampire.
She sighed when he rested his chin on her shoulder.
"I realise that this is an incredibly awkward situation to be in, but I really don't want to lose this apparent friendship we have going. I know that you're Elena's best friend… believe me I get it but just…" he said in a softer and serious tone but was stopped by her pressing her fingers to his lips.
"Shh…Elena and I…have long past our expiry date when it comes to our friendship, I've told you that. but you need time or whatever to sort out this mess, all I'm saying is think before you make a decision" she said smacking him lightly on the cheek before getting off his lap and leaving the library.
End of Flashback
"Hey what are you doing?" Matt asked sitting down in front of her as she snapped out of her thoughts.
"I'm just looking for this spell Damon told me about…It locates potions" she added when she saw the interested look on his face.
"Potions huh?...what kinda potions are you looking for?" he asked getting up and sitting next to her to get a better view of the grimior.
"It's to locate the cure…we know Silas has it, but we don't know where exactly that is…I guess I'm just a little freaked out by how quiet his being" she said shrugging as she flipped a page.
"Shouldn't we be glad that he hasn't done anything? I mean maybe his backing off, maybe his going to look for another witch to do the spell" Matt said hopefully making Bonnie snicker at the thought.
"I highly doubt it, I'm the only Bennett witch strong enough to do it besides Lucy and we have no clue where she is…and even if he does find another witch to do it, we can't let him drop the veil…Its too dangerous for all of us" she said shuddering at the thought of all the tomb vampires coming back.
"Yeah I guess" he said thoughtfully and Bonnie could see he had something on his mind.
"You know, if there's a way to bring Vicky back I'll do it right?...I'm not sure what the consequences for her actions were for what she did last time, but I promise I'll try." She said squeezing his hand.
"You're a good friend Bonnie" he said smiling before pecking her on the cheek and leaving to get back to work.
She smiled and went back to reading through the grimior.
"Is that your other boyfriend?" Andy said gasping dramatically "Scandalous does your other hottie know? Or is he too busy fawning over the doppelgänger?" she asked smirking from her seat opposite Bonnie.
"Didn't Damon instruct you to leave town?" Bonnie asked in a bored tone going back to her reading.
"No one tells me what to do" Andy said glaring at Bonnie who still wouldn't make eye contact with her.
"Right, then why are you here exactly? Isn't it an instruction from your master Leo?" Bonnie said looking up at her with an amused smirk.
"You don't know anything" Andy hissed angrily before composing herself to speak in calmer tone "However I am curious about that Vampire boyfriend of yours" she said sitting back in her seat and crossing her arms in thought.
"What about him?" Bonnie asked not bothering to correct the young witch in front of her.
"How is it that magic doesn't affect him?" Andy asked intrigued.
"His special like that" Bonnie said shrugging nonchalantly.
"No one is that special" Andy said narrowing her eyes dangerously.
"Well he is, and if that's all will you please leave I'm waiting for someone" Bonnie said not waiting for a response as she went back to reading the grimior.
"Too bad, I'm not done talking to you yet." Andy said defiantly making Bonnie sigh.
"Fine" Bonnie said closing the grimior.
…..
"Where's Bonnie?" Elena asked walking into Damon's room as he sat on his bed marking off things on a map.
"Grill" he said not looking up as he looked marked off another spot.
"What's she doing there?" Elena asked going to sit down next to him.
"Meeting someone" he said shrugging as wrote down an address on a sheet of paper.
"Like a date?" she asked leaning closer as he looked over his shoulder to look into her doe eyes that were twinkling at him.
"Nope not a date…hey did you know there's a huge pack that just blew into town?...Bridget counted at least 20" he said getting up and walking toward his cupboard to pull out his leather jacket.
"Where are you going?" she asked frowning as he slipped it on.
"To introduce myself…I would invite you to tag along, but then you'll want to talk about my unholy friendship with the little witch and I'm not quite in the mood for that" he said winking and leaving the room.
She glared at his retreating back until she heard his phone ring. She was about to pick it up when she saw who it was when a pale hand flashed past hers and grabbed it.
She looked up into his blue eyes as he answered the phone.
"Yes Judgy?" he answered sighing before leaving the room again.
….
"Welcome to the Salvatore Manor boys" Jamal said walking into the manor like he owned the place followed by several others, some in their 20's and others in their teens.
"Stefan what's with the racket?" Bridget asked groggily as she woke up from her sleep on the couch as the pack entered the parlour.
"Wrong guy, wrong species" Jamal said leaning against the wall with his arms folded as the rest of the pack sauntered into the room picking up things and inspecting the room.
"Jamal?" she asked in disbelief as she wiped her eyes.
"Bridget, it's been a long time" he said smirking at her as she frowned at the way the pack surrounded her.
"Unfortunately not long enough…what are you doing here?" she asked starting to feel on edge.
"I just came to show the guys the new digs you're staying in…nice place" he said looking around the parlour appreciatively.
Before she could say anything Stefan strolled into the parlour but stopped abruptly when he saw the people standing around. He furrowed his eyebrows and looked at Bridget's tense stance realising something was wrong.
"What going on?" he asked stepping toward Bridget despite the low growls he heard from the pack.
"Well if you haven't realised it already Salvatore, your house is filled with werewolves…but you can relax, we're only here to deliver a message" Jamal said smirking and stepping away from the wall to walk toward Stefan.
"And what message is that?" Stefan asked turning to face Jamal who had a thoroughly amused look on his face.
"Tomorrow night at the full moon, Joshua wants you to deliver the four Bennett witches to him in the caves beneath the local high school or his sending the phoenix vampires on a killing spree through mystic falls" Jamal said nonchalantly "Now I suggest you don't run because you know how we get at a full moon, we'll hunt" he said looking at Bridget with a satisfied smirk when he caught her shiver.
"Why in the caves?" Bridget asked trying to ignore the growls from the werewolves around her.
"How should I know?...I'm just the messenger" he said shrugging and then left the parlour followed by the rest of the pack.
"Hey are you ok" Stefan asked her when the pack left.
"I'm fine, we need to call everyone and get them ready for a fight…Joshua wants a show down? He'll get one" Bridget said determined as she left the parlour while dialling Bianca's number.
