Summary: Bonnie was okay with being alone. She was okay with not falling in love. She was okay with her form of happiness. Then Scott showed up. Scott was a romantic. He loved the idea of everything being better. He loved to dream, and love. Together they could be something else. Maybe even happy.

Disclaimer: I own nothing. These two shows (Teen Wolf and The Vampire Diaries)...I wish. Would be making some type of bank.

Enjoy


Bonnie looked in her mirror running over a thousand scenarios. Scott and Tyler could get along. They would become best buds, and partners.

Or Scott could hate Tyler, and Tyler would return the sentiment, and then they could try to kill each other.

Bonnie was not sure what would happen. Scott was off because of Tyler, and she assumed it was because of his Alpha status. What if he was not so keen on other Alphas roaming around. The Alpha pack had been keeping them on their toes as of late, and that was all. Still Bonnie could not let Scott get hostile with Tyler. Tyler was stronger, and could take him out much easier. Plus Tyler needed to make it easier on himself. She wanted him to be okay. Getting into it with the Alpha of a very strange pack, who was also connected to hunters and another pack with Alphas was not being easy.

"Alright Bonnie, time to defuse a situation."

She smiled at herself liking what she had done. Her hair was of course straight, and was chocolate brown. Her make up was natural, not overdone. She was wearing her standard boho hippie wear. It almost felt like two years ago.

"Except now you are trying to make things better between to deadly werewolves."

Bonnie was not even shocked at how calm she was when she said that.


When Bonnie opened the door, she only expected one or the other. Scott or Tyler. That would make it easier to explain what she was trying to do. If it was Scott, she would try to convince him a little that Tyler was no threat to his Alpha status. If it was Tyler, she would tell him that Scott is an Alpha to his own pack and that he may sense Tyler's status as an packless Alpha. Instead she was met with both of them. And as it seemed, there was some tension.

"Hey, you're both here...on time."

Scott just nodded. Tyler stood there nodding.

"Well why don't you both come inside for a second? I just need to go get my phone and purse."

A nod from both was all she received. She moved to the side letting both boys in, closing the door after them. They moved awkwardly through the space until Bonnie could move pass them and get to the stairs.

"Okay...be right back."

This was much more awkward than it should have been.


Scott looked up to the slightly taller Jeremy. He seemed to be looking around, studying the place. Scott did not like that. For some reason Jeremy reminded him of Jackson. There was an air of total asshat surrounding him. He remembered how Jackson would insult threaten demean him. He had even went out of his way to get with Allison just so he could out do him. Despite Scott acting like he forgave and forget those actions, all of which happened no more than a few months ago, he had not quite gotten over it. Instead he just turned the other cheek and did his best to move on. He even defended him when Jackson was having problems as the Kanima. He did what he could to make amends with the guy that was part of the reason his high school career was a living hell. Thankfully Jackson had apologized for all that he had done, and even expressed his gratitude for helping in him his time of need. Scott had felt good to know that Jackson did care. Now, the newly created werewolf had moved with his family, leaving the group a little short. But now the presence of Jeremy was doing well enough to fill in that gap.

"So..."

Scott snapped out of his daze.

"I'm..."

"I know who you are. Bonnie has talked about you."

"Oh yeah, we went through this already. Well anyway cool of you to come with us to lunch. Bonnie is good, but it is nice to have a local help us out."

Scott just nodded. He kept his eyes on Tyler, as if trying to find anything that he could use later. He had focused so hard that he noticed something. Or lack of something.

"Hey Bonnie."

Scott was ripped from his study when Jeremy said her name. He turned to see the girl come down, phone and purse in hand. She was rifling through her purse, looking for something.

"Hey guys. Sorry that took longer than necessary. I just needed to find..."

She got quiet as she focused on her purse. Then the sound of something jingling caught Scott attention. It was Jeremy who said something.

"Your keys?"

Just then Bonnie pulled them out with a satisfied look on her face.

"My keys."

She moved past them toward the door, and motioned for them to follow.

"Alright boys, lets go have an awesome day out on the town."


They spent the next few hours driving and visiting important places. Museums, stores, anywhere to show Tyler. It was as if Bonnie was trying to impress him. Scott hated that. He would have been okay with it if it had not been for Jeremy getting closer to Bonnie. He would move closer to her just to "look" closer, and they would touch. It happened a few times, and it was finally when they were on their way out of yet another random shop, that Scott voiced his frustrations. Unfortunately it was in the most unorthodox of ways.

Just as Jeremy got close to Bonnie, Scott heard a quiet yet sever rumble erupt from him. He felt his lip curl up and his eyes darken. He was growling. Growling at Bonnie's no good ex boyfriend.

He did it a few more times, almost by instinct, until they stopped. It was around five when they stopped.

Bonnie was trying hard. Really hard. She was never this peppy, or bubbly, or social. She was talking and being friendly with Jeremy. It was so awkward. Well to Scott it was. It was just Bonnie was generally quiet and really mature. Occasionally she would have these moments of genuine peppiness, and it resulted in her voice getting slightly higher and her talking with a southern valley girl accent. That was how Scott knew it was sincere. When she had the slight distinction to her voice, she was happy. It was really a subtle difference, but it was something he found fun to pick up. Scott even made it is his mission to try to get the southern valley girl to pop up a few times. Still this Bonnie was so unnatural.

"Alright, we have been to almost every hot spot in Beacon Hills, sans the warehouse district, and the high school..."

Bonnie was looking at the list she had created, as if it was important. Scott glanced at Jeremy, who ha the same expression as he did. This was just weird.

"Well, I think we should finally go to lunch, well dinner technically, somewhere...Scott any suggestions?"

He looked at Bonnie and she was looking at him, a little hectic.

"Uh...how about that Mexican Restaurant off of main? They have relatively reasonable prices."

Bonnie looked at Jeremy, as if looking for his approval. Something Scott also hated.

"How does that sound?"

Jeremy just shrugged, as if not really caring.

"Sure why not."

Bonnie gave a smile. A tight one.

"Alright let's go."


"So...Scott?"

The young werewolf looked up from his near empty plate. He had settled for a quesodilla special, with steak, and rice and beans on the side. He liked it, often reminding him of the few times his mother would try to cook him an authentic Mexican dinner. It rarely happened, but it was nice for her to try. One day he would have to try and cook for Bonnie, give her a nice dinner that she would love. But not with Jeremy there.

"Yes?"

"Well back in Mystic Falls, one of Bonnie's dearest friends had told me about you and her. So...I just want to know: are you taking care of little Bonnie here?"

Scott could of swore he heard an innuendo in there. Was he suggesting something else? He looked to Bonnie, and saw her recovering from something. Most likely from shock.

"I...uh..."

Scott did not know how to answer that. He glanced at Bonnie again, who was sending death glares at Jeremy. He would have smiled if the moment was not awkward enough.

"I need to go to the bathroom."

He stood up quickly and left.


As soon as he was out of sight, Bonnie turned to Tyler and her eyes narrowed even more. Tyler had only seen her do that to Damon, and that generally meant he would have gotten an aneurysm. That was in the past, she stopped doing that sometime ago, but still, the look had the effect to even put a manic lion down.

"What was that?"

She whispered it, as if Scott could possibly hear that.

"What I was just joking?"

"Tyler that was not funny."

"Oh come on."

Bonnie shook her head, not the least bit persuade. He forgot that Bonnie was not Caroline and could not be swayed by a little change in his voice and a look. He forgot how much he really did not know about Bonnie.

"Tyler my...our sex life is off the table. It hasn't even happened."

"Oh fun. Look I'm sorry. I'll apologize when pup comes back out."

Bonnie was about to respond when she heard that.

"Wait..."

"Yeah, not hard to figure out."

"How?"

"Caroline told me. Plus it didn't help every time I got close to you he would snarl and growl a little."

"Wait, that's why you kept getting so close."

Tyler gave her a devilish smile. She would have found it charming if she was not heavily annoyed with him. She sighed and looked down at her plate.

"Okay then, look. I think Scott has picked up on you being an Alpha

Tyler's look screamed confusion.

"How?"

Bonnie shrugged.

"I don't know. I thought it was a werewolf thing."

"Well I didn't pick up on it, seeing as I am a packless Alpha."

Bonnie wanted to say he did not get to spend much time in a pack, as an Alpha, or as a werewolf. But she could not. That was completely disrespectful. Still it said something. He had not spent much time as a werewolf. He had spent maybe four or five months as one, not really in a pack. Then has spent the last six or seven months, as a packless hybrid Alpha. She just sighed.

"I don't know it was just a theory. Still that may be the answer. I just wanted to warn you that he might see you as a visible threat. Could you please just lighten up a little. I know when people tend to irk you now, you kind of react badly. Like standing close to me just to hear him growl..."

Tyler just shrugs.

"Tyler."

Her voice was stern and irritated. He knew Bonnie could take a joke, and this Bonnie was scared. Did she really care that much about the kid. With his own sign, he took Bonnie's hands as if in a dramatic moment.

"Look I promise I will not be an ass. Or a monster. Or a Rival. I will be on my bestest goodest behavior just so I can impress your kind of gullible boyfriend. And I will make sure to play nice."

Bonnie titled her head to the side, and rolled her eyes. Despite that she had a small smile on her face.

"Do you promise?"

Tyler nodded.

"I promise."

They smiled at each other, just about to break out into laughter, when someone spoke.

"It's true..."

Bonnie turned to look at the person who spoke. Scott. He looked destroyed.

"Scott?"


She did not even take her hands out of his. They were really doing this. He had not heard the rest of the conversation, having saw them and got lost in the fact that Bonnie's hands were in Jeremy's. When he finally came to all he heard was Jeremy telling her he promised. What did he promise? He would not know, he did not want to find out. And now they were sitting there, hands still connected looking as if nothing had happened. Nothing intimate was going on.

As if Scott's heart breaking meant nothing.


A/N: Uh updating is being a bit of a problem. I tried to update awhile ago, but the site and I were having problems. And then the much longer chapters somehow got deleted from my computer...who is being a piece of Sugar Honey Ice Tea...that is why this chapter feels rushed and a bit choppy. I just got upset and just wrote the bare basics of it kind of...but I ain't , I am taking it slow right now. One chapter update this time. I'm sorry. Anyway Scott has this idea that Tyler is Jeremy. Why? Never met Jeremy before. And Bonnie doesn't talk much of Mystic Falls. So he assumes Tyler is Jeremy in just how they are acting around each other, which will be explained somewhat in the next few chapters.

Next chapter will be a semi aftermath type scenario. Let me just tell you now, Scott is not talking to Bonnie. He thinks she is going to leave him. Angst, awkwardness, and Allison ensues (did you really think she would be gone?)

I will be back on my regular three chapter update after this.

Thank you for reading. If you have any questions, feel free to hit me up with a message or just the comment section. I will try to answer all your questions as soon as possible.

Read. Review. Critique. Enjoy
