Bonnie moaned causing Stefan to lift an eyebrow and spoon her some more chocolate. Was it possible to find her even more attractive? She had that glow that many pregnant women get and her eyes reminded him of the crisp leaves on the trees. Her nose, which he found out that she loves it when he kisses her there, he hoped that their child will inherit instead of his pointy one. Her lips were the ones that you could just kiss all day and he would if he was a supernatural being and didn't need to breathe.
Stefan removed the spoon slowly from her mouth and kissed away any extra she had on her lips before licking his. The move made her hormones spin out of control and just as she was about to dive in for those lips, the doorbell sounded. Stefan got up to answer it and she heard a familiar voice fill the room. Normally she would've been happy to see her best friend but hates her timing.
"Hey, babe." Bonnie stood up to hug her.
"I thought I was your babe?" Stefan said causing the girls to laugh.
"Don't be jealous, Stefan, I was here first so it's only fair," Elena said turned to her friend. "Look at you, Bon, you look so cute. How was meeting the parents?"
"I haven't told you about that already?" Bonnie asked surprised as Elena shook her head sitting down in front of her occupying Stefan's seat. "Well, everything was going great until I went to the bathroom."
"So your bladder ruined the dinner? Did pee on the seat or something?"
Bonnie laughed and Stefan chuckled. "No, Elena, I may be pregnant but I have some control." The brunette shrugged. "Well while I was gone Stefan's parents started talking about us getting married."
"Married?"
"Yep," Stefan chimed in, "they think our child should be born into a married home."
"Well I see their reasoning but it's not like you two were dating before this happened. What did you say to them?"
"Nothing, I got us out of there before they started picking out centerpieces."
The girls chuckled and Bonnie shook her head. After a subject change, the girls started catching up on the past week. Stefan sat there to watch and listen, never has he full-on listened to two women engaging in a conversation. He wouldn't consider it a douche move, but most things he just wasn't interested in. With Bonnie and Elena however, he felt more drawn. He learned about Bonnie's slight cravings and differences in her body that he didn't know about.
He wondered why she hasn't told him about such things, but he then realized that he hasn't asked her about such things so she might've thought that he didn't care or just simply wasn't interested but he was. He wanted to know if she was craving pickles so he could stock up on some, he wanted to know if her feet were hurting so he could treat her to a foot massage, and he wanted to know if she felt tired so he could draw her a bath and feed her chocolates.
"Baby, how come you never told me about the things you told Elena?" Stefan asked moving his hand along her belly spooning her.
Elena had left about an hour ago and the two decided on resting for a while. What she told Elena has been on his mind since it left her mouth and now he figured that he should ask her about it.
"I don't know," Bonnie thought, "I guess I wasn't sure if you cared."
"Of course I care," Stefan said somewhat shocked. "I know I probably haven't been the best at this, but I want to know those things so I can help out somehow." Bonnie smiled. "Look at me."
Bonnie turned in his arms and stared into his eyes. Stefan pressed a kiss to her lips and rubbed the pad of his thumb along her cheekbone.
"I love you, Bonnie. I want to be your Elena, I want to know what you're craving, I want to know what you're feeling and what hurts, I want to be with you every step of the way and right by your side and I don't want that to change." He confessed.
"Well feel like crying but I'm holding back the tears." They both chuckled. "And I love you too."
Their lips met again and they later pulled away taking the nap that they intended to have in the first place.
It was exactly what she needed. A nice, normal day with her lover and friend. They decided to raid Bonnie's massive movie collection looking for a comedy. She needed a serious laugh and that was exactly what she got while watching Friday After Next. Day-Day and Craig said and did the right things to have the whole couch cracking up and even shed a few tears.
After the movie, they grabbed a bite to eat at Mystic Grill. They got situated in a booth and after ordering their food, Stefan excused himself to the bathroom.
"I love you." He whispered in her ear sliding out the cushioned seat.
Bonnie bit back her smile and blushed while Elena looked at her friend with a questioning look.
"What did he say to have you all blushin'?"
Bonnie looked past her friend and saw Stefan turn the corner. "He said that he loves me."
Her eyes grew. "I knew it and I told you so!" Bonnie shushed her feeling a little weird with all the staring they earned. "When did this happen?"
"When you came over a few days ago. He asked me why I didn't tell him about my cravings and when I said that I didn't think that he cared he said that he wanted to be there for me and that he loves me."
Elena frowned in awe. "Aren't you glad I came over?"
"He would've said it eventually," Bonnie rolled her eyes, "but you just sped up the process."
"Did you say it back?"
"Yeah, I love Stefan... Speaking of."
Elena turned to see the subject of their conversation making his way over. She badly wanted to congratulate the couple on their love but since Stefan whispered that he loved her friend in her ear and didn't say it out loud, Elena knew that he was still a little shy about it.
Just looking at them she could tell that they are in love the way that their eyes glow when they look at each other and the way that Stefan just couldn't seem to keep his hands off Bonnie. He would stretch an arm out behind her and after place his hand on her shoulder and touch her knee under the table which she noticed when his arm was a little too far away from the rest of his body. She was happy for them.
"Well I'm going to head out, I have to meet my babe number two at five for a little get-together, but I'll see y'all later."
"Bye, Lena."
"See ya, Elena."
Once Stefan heard the bell chime signaling Elena's exit, he wasted no time in kissing her. He didn't want Elena to feel like a third wheel and made a note to not show any PDA while she's present. But now she was gone and Stefan wanted to kiss his beloved and he noticed that she wanted to kiss him just as badly by how her tongue worked.
"I love you too," Bonnie said as they pulled away.
Stefan smiled and kissed her nose then pulled out his wallet and paid for the bill.
Whoever said that men look better in uniform was absolutely correct. Even though the uniform was really a costume, that didn't stop Stefan from looking like the hottest police officer in Mystic Falls.
Bonnie swore if she wasn't pregnant Stefan would've been out that costume and sitting in the nearest chair with her on his lap.
"Put your hands where I can see them," Stefan whispered in her ear from behind.
Bonnie smiled. "If I resist arrest will I be punished?"
"Yes, ma'am."
"You know," Bonnie said turning to face him, "I have a history of being a bad girl."
"Then I think we'll get along just fine," Stefan said then attacked her lips.
His hands trailed her back then gripped her ass in his hand. Bonnie moaned and she heard him growl and her feet started walking backward.
"Wait, Stefan, the baby." She hated to stop what was about to happen but she knew that if she let in continue they would've been anything but gentle.
"Ugh, such a cock block."
Bonnie laughed. "Well once this baby is out, I want to see you in this again."
Their lips met again and this time, Stefan was the one to pull away. "Are you sure you don't want to go to the party?"
"Yeah," Bonnie sighed, "I'm just not in the mood."
"Do you want me to stay with you? I could keep you company."
She smiled at his offer. "No, you have fun and I'll be in this bed asleep when you come home."
Stefan chuckled and kissed her again. "Alright, call me if you need anything."
Bonnie walked him to the door and watched him drive off before heading to the pantry for a snack.
ǁǁǁǁ
Stefan wasn't having much fun like he thought he'd be. Yes, he was with his boys, but Bonnie couldn't escape his mind. He would just hate it something happened while he was gone and was going to leave when a drink invaded his vision.
"No thanks, man. I think I'm gonna head home."
"No," Tyler objected, "stay at least for one more hour. Drink, have fun, dance with some ladies."
Stefan rolled his eyes, "You know I'm with Bonnie, but I'll have a drink."
Tyler smiled, "That's my man."
One drink turned to five and he was glad that Bonnie wouldn't be up when he got home. She would kill him for drinking so much or even at all, but slowly that thought was fading his mind when the alcohol came into effect.
"Wanna dance?"
"No, I'm good," Stefan said not turning to face her.
"But you said that there would be a next time."
Stefan narrowed his eyes and turned to face a familiar face but he wasn't going to let her know that.
"Remind me of your name again."
"Rachel." She rolled her eyes. "You seemed to remember my name when you were fucking me from behind."
"Yeah, well I've had a lot since then," he lied, "so sorry if I don't remember your damn name."
His refusal should've pushed her away and made her storm off, but since he was in that police uniform, she couldn't stop herself from being turned on.
"Come on, Stefan. Take little ol' me for a spin." She said running her hands down his arms.
Stefan moved her hands away so she one-upped the move and decided to kiss him. He quickly pulled away and moved past her bumping their shoulders together.
Rachel rolled her eyes folding her hands below her chest. She wondered what was holding him back but then a sexy fireman walked by and she decided to go after him instead.
He didn't know how, but he made it home and like she said, Bonnie was asleep in bed when he got in. He decided to walk instead of driving home knowing that his beauty would yell at him if he didn't. He decided on taking a quick shower hoping to wash away some of the party smell.
"I love you," Stefan whispered as he got in behind her.
He heard Bonnie mummer something that he couldn't make out. He kissed her ear and closed his eyes for the night.
The next morning, Stefan woke up alone with a headache. He wanted to move to shut the blinds, but that would've done nothing but make everything worse. He chuckled when he saw Aspirin and a glass of water on the nightstand and wasn't sure if Bonnie would be mad at him when he found her. After taking the pills, he moved his feet to the bathroom and splashed water on his face. His eyes were closed and the events from last night rushed in his head and he wondered if he should tell Bonnie about the kiss. He didn't want her to get upset, but he didn't want to lie either.
"I thought policemen encouraged people to stay sober?" Bonnie said when she heard him enter the kitchen.
"I'm sorry, baby." He apologized.
"It's fine, Stefan I'm glad you had fun. Now would you please ride with me to Mystic Grill so I can have some pancakes?"
"Sure."
Bonnie smiled and took his outstretched hand as they started walking to the car.
ǁǁǁǁ
Stefan was in the middle of his sentence when someone entered and that someone happened to be Rachel. He took that as a sign that he needed to tell Bonnie what happened and even if he didn't want to, he needed to now when Bonnie turned following his eyes and asked who she was. He could see the jealousness on her face so he spoke up.
"She's meaningless, I met her a while ago then-"
"Met her how?"
This is exactly why he hated having girlfriends, they wanted to know every detail. "I uh, you know. I fucked her."
"I seriously want to kill you right now." Her face was firm.
"It was before we got together, I swear. She was at the party last night and uh," he saw the anger on her face, it was a look that he's never seen before and he even was a little scared, "she kissed me, but I pulled away as soon as our- whoa, whoa, whoa, baby, wait." Stefan stood up and stopped her from going over there. "She's not worth it, alright."
"I should really kick your ass."
"Me? Why?"
"You're the one who let her kiss you."
"How was I supposed to know she was going to do that?"
"Well you did fuck her a while ago so what do you think she wanted? A handshake?"
He smirked then stepped closer. "Mm, you're sexy."
"Don't even try to change the subject, Stefan."
"Say my name again."
"Shut up." She hated that she giggled so she pushed his arm and started towards the door.
He grabbed her arm and met their lips and his hand traveled and squeezed. Bonnie said his name in a warning tone, but he didn't care if they were in public, she's his woman.
ǁǁǁǁ
Bonnie woke up to laughter and it wasn't Stefan's but a woman's, so she made her way downstairs and heard chatter coming from the kitchen so that's where she went. She hated that she was acting so jealous lately, she knew that Stefan wouldn't be stupid enough to bring some other chick that he's slept with in the house while he knew she was upstairs… but what if he was? She wanted to look better than the trick and she couldn't do that dressed in his shirt and some shorts.
Bonnie made her way back upstairs to change into the shirt that she knows Stefan loves just for the simple fact that's it's a V-neck and he would tell her to sit on his lap so he could rest his head on her chest. She then pulled navy blue jeans up her legs and covered her feet with socks, messed with her hair some then made her way back downstairs. She stopped at the entrance of the kitchen to see the back of a woman with long brunette hair standing in front of Stefan who was seated. She didn't know what to say to gain their attention so she went with the first thing that popped into her head.
"I didn't know we were expecting company?" Bonnie said gaining their eyes.
The woman smiled and walked up to her pulling her into a hug. Bonnie smiled as best she could as she pulled away with her hands on her shoulders.
The woman frowned. "You have no idea who I am, do you?"
"Sorry,"
"No, it's not your fault, it's Stefan's. I'm his twin sister, Sasha."
"You didn't tell me you had a twin." Bonnie looked at Stefan.
"That's exactly something that he would do," Sasha answered.
"You're lucky I told her that I had a sister."
"Hey, be nice," Bonnie said.
Sasha smiled and stood beside her wrapping an arm around her shoulder, "Yeah, Stefan, be nice."
"Oh no. My life is over."
The girls chuckled and Bonnie moved to the refrigerator looking for a red apple that she craved.
"Sash brought you some more apples this morning."
"These are perfect, thanks." Bonnie smiled over at her once she picked the reddest one.
Stefan grabbed her waist as she was walking by and pulled her on his lap and rested his head on her chest. Sasha smiled as he did so and even though she just met Bonnie, she could tell that she was better than Tracy.
"So, Sasha do you live around here?"
"Yeah, my fiancé and I-"
"You're engaged?! Let me see the ring." Bonnie didn't mean to interrupt but she couldn't help herself.
Sasha extended her hand out smiling when Bonnie gasped and smiled herself.
"It's beautiful, congratulations."
"Thank you, Bonnie."
"Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt, continue."
She giggled. "Yeah, so Michael and I live about fifteen minutes away."
"What, that's so close," Bonnie said chewing. "We need to visit you two sometime."
"Yeah, sorry I couldn't be there for the big dinner with my parents. Stefan told me about it."
"Oh, that's fine, I wasn't there when the whole conversation went down."
"Lucky you." The twins said.
Bonnie and Sasha smiled at the look on Stefan's face. "That never gets old does it, bro?" He rolled his eyes. "Anyway, I should get going. I'm excited about y'all's visit."
"What she meant to say was that we'll think about visiting you two sometime." Stefan corrected.
"Why are you so mean to your sister?"
"What are little brothers for? Stefan's been like this since he learned how to talk." Sasha said and Bonnie now got why Stefan acts the way he does—he's the baby twin.
Bonnie stood when she did. "It was nice to meet you, let me walk you out."
Sasha smiled and nodded standing up walking beside Bonnie to the door. Stefan knew that he's now lost Bonnie. She and his sister seemed to get too much along and now he knows that he'll be seeing less and less of her. He stood when Bonnie came back minutes later and moved his hand along her stomach before kissing her.
"Good morning."
She smiled and kissed him back. "Good morning."
"Are you going to cheat on me with my sister?"
Bonnie laughed. "No promises." She winked then headed for the stairs.
Stefan followed her up telling her that he had something to give her. She tried guessing what it was but Stefan wouldn't give her the satisfaction of telling her if she was right or not. When they reached the room, Bonnie sat on the bed as he instructed her and closed her eyes and when she opened them, he was on his knee in front of her with a box in his hand. A ring box.
Stefan opened it and pulled out a ring. "You know I have trouble with commitment but damn, Bonnie Bennett you may have changed me." Bonnie smiled. "I want you to wear this for me. You're my girl and this also symbolizes that I'm yours too. As long as you wear this ring I promise that I will never hurt you intentionally and that I love you, Bonnie Bennett."
She pulled him in for a hug. "I love you too."
"So you'll wear it for me?"
She smiled. "Yes, I'll wear it for you."
He smiled and slid the ring down her finger then stood up wrapping her in his arms and kissed her head. Bonnie smiled and hugged him back glad that he was starting to take their relationship seriously and she realized that she really needed to too.
When Stefan let her go, Bonnie headed to Elena's house to tell her about the events that happened that morning.
"Wait, Stefan has a twin?!"
Bonnie chuckled. "Elena, after all that I told you, you're more interested in the twin part?"
The brunette shrugged. "Well, the ring part is damn amazing too. I can't believe you changed Stefan."
"I didn't change him."
"Oh please, Bonnie Bennett you got the magic touch or should I say vagina."
"Elena!"
The girls giggled. "I'm kidding, Bon, I'm really happy for you two or should I say three."
The girls smiled and got ready to go to lunch.
