Hi Guys! I'm so glad you liked the last chapter enough to come back and read this one! I think this one's a little wordy, so sorry about that, and it's also a little bit shorter than the 1st chapter. Here we explore why exactly Bonnie cast that spell. Oh and if you haven't seen already, I did update the 1st chapter a little. I decided that little Bonnie needed to be older so there we go! Enjoy!


Bonnie looked at the younger version of herself in awe. This little girl, sat unerringly staring up the driveway in front of her, looked so full of hope, so determined that the woman she was desperately willing to appear was about to turn in and drive towards the house, with a fierce spark behind her eyes, Bonnie almost didn't recognise her. She hadn't felt hope like that in years. Bonnie stared intently at the little girl, watching the smaller Bennett get up from the porch, grab onto that damn teddy bear, and set off towards the road that ran along the side of the house. As if in a trance, Bonnie followed, almost forgetting the man stood next to her. Kai had said barely anything since they arrived here, living out her memory, but right now, she didn't care. Brushing past him and avoiding his steely eyes, Bonnie jogged down the driveway, before coming to a stop underneath yet another large oak tree. Her vision blurred as she watched little Bonnie start sobbing into Ms Cuddles. There was the moment she remembered vividly; the moment she realised that her mommy was never coming back for her. That was the first time her heart broke.

She felt rather than saw Kai arrive next to her, his magic pulsing around them, silver and blue, tangling and with her gold, lashing around him the way hers did when emotions got the better of her. Looking up at him, Bonnie could only describe his expression as troubled. Ha, she thought, her own gloom momentarily put to the back of her mind. 'Maybe his 'newfound emotions' are getting the better of him' she thought, with a smirk in his direction.

"What's wrong Kai? You can stab, hang and drown your own siblings, but can't bear the sight of a little girl crying for her mother?", Bonnie sneered, "Well, let me tell you, living it was a thousand times worse." Her voice cracked and her eyes filled with tears again. Get a grip Bennett! You have got to stop crying in front of this guy. Kai just stood there, his mouth open like an idiot. His magic receded slightly, and it unnerved Bonnie. This silent, reserved man in front of her was, at present, unrecognisable as the sociopath that had caused her so much pain and misery.

"I…"

But that didn't mean she wanted to hear his thoughts on this particular memory of hers…

"Save it! This isn't why I brought you here. Stop feeling sorry for me." Bonnie demanded, turning back to her younger self, hastily wiping the water from her face.

"Why did you bring me here Bonnie?" Kai seemed to have snapped out of his speechless state, and now brought himself to stand in the way of her line of sight to 6 year old Bonnie. She scowled up at him. Green eyes meeting blue, and for a second, Bonnie thought she saw true empathetic sadness flash across those normally cold orbs. Her brain seemed to register this in the same instant that he stepped closer… 'I wanted to feel your hand on my chest'… 'Uh-Oh, she's being brave'… Her next breath was shaky as she stepped back, her gaze locked on her feet. The Bennett witch hated that he could do that to her, she could stand up to Klaus Mikaelson; Original Vampire Hybrid, and even dessicate him, but this one Gemini witch could cause her to curl up inside herself, weak, fragile.


Kai watched as Bonnie recoiled from him, her gaze instantly falling to the floor the moment he got close to her. Well what exactly did you expect? The Luke voice in his head scolded as he looked at the shattered girl in front of him.

"Bonnie, I…I'm sorry, I won't come near you again okay? Just tell me why we're here," he pleaded, willing his voice to be as gentle as possible.

Her head snapped up, and she scoffed at him. Bonnie Bennett sure could put on a very good show of being tough and untouchable when she was feeling the most vulnerable.

"I brought you here Kai, because I wanted to show you that even though you may have had a shitty life and a shitty father, that doesn't give you the right to be a complete psycho and murder people! I brought you into my headbecause I wanted to show you that there is always a choice."
