Just wanna say thank you for all the reviews! I appreciate and take into consideration every single one! I'm figuring out my writing and this story as it goes along, and i'm starting to realize i'm allergic to long chapters lol! anyway, i hope y'all enjoy this one and things are getting into tonnie territory hehe. (also, if Tyler or any of the characters seem a lil OOC i apologize, i really don't like the way how most of the time in the show the clearly teenage characters sounded n acted like full on adults, it was one of my biggest pet peeves and i just wanna make my tvd babies a lil more their age!)
Truthfully, Mason Lockwood was nervous about meeting the Petrova doppelgänger he had an arrangement with. She was ruthless, Mason had the displeasure of knowing that after he triggered his curse, Katherine was kind enough to compel everyone who saw but it still didn't stop her from holding it over his head, not afraid to tell anyone that he killed a man, regardless of whether or not he meant to. Which is why he's even in this mess.
"Where is the moonstone?"
"Somewhere safe."
"Don't you trust me?"
"I don't trust anyone."
Katherine scoffed, "Except the Bennett bitch, it seems like. I've only been around her once but god, you smell just like her."
Growling, Mason instantly wanted to defend his mate, although she still wasn't officially his. These past few weeks were rather chaotic, due to Tyler finding out about his werewolf side, everyone either hating Mason for being a wolf or simply dating Bonnie Bennett. (in Damon's case it was both.) As much as he wanted to mark her, it just wasn't the right time. With Bonnie's band of friends and her unwavering loyalty, he didn't think there would ever be a right time by this point.
"Leave her out of this, you'll get the stupid stone soon. Will you finally leave me alone once you have it?"
Taking his face in her hands, Katherine moved closer to Mason and lowered his head near her mouth, whispering seductively in his ear, "Oh Mason, that just doesn't sound like me. But, maybe. We'll just have to see if you could do anything else for me. If not, I'll be generous." And with a mocking pat on the cheek, the older vampire was gone, leaving the werewolf to grimace, alone.
"Lockwood...did you get a defective one? Because this can't be right. It literally can't be."
Bonnie turned to the concerned boy standing in the bathroom doorway, clearly just as distressed as Bonnie and failing miserably to keep it together.
"Uh, yeah I'm pretty sure I got one of every brand there is. If it says that then maybe it's right."
"No." Shaking her head, "There's no way. We've been safe!" Tyler outwardly cringed, he wanted to be here for Bonnie right now, but this stung him more than he'd like to admit. These past few weeks he's been closer to Bonnie than he has anyone else in his life, and the more time he spent around her, (even with the presence of his uncle, most of the time.) the more his sprouting feelings for the witch grew.
"I mean, think about it, you were both pretty drunk that first night, are you sure y'all were safe then? It's been almost a month."
She completely forgot about that first night, so Bonnie was, for lack of better terms, officially fucked. 5 pregnancy tests, all different brands, all done at different times (as if that was gonna change anything), all showing positive signs. She sat on the edge of Tyler's bathtub and sighed, she couldn't help but feel like she was in a bad episode of some supernatural version of Degrassi. Nobody had directly told her yet of the Lockwood's werewolf origins, but she had a hunch. Especially since as the days went on, Mason's possessiveness of her worsened and the unsaid tension between uncle and nephew was prominent whenever she was around, which was every day at this point. It no longer felt like regular human vs. human jealousy, but wolf vs. wolf, and stuck in the middle, Bonnie knew who she wanted to win and felt terrible for it. It ate her up even more now that she knows she's pregnant, with a werewolf-witch baby, nonetheless.
"I'm a witch, I've faced scarier stuff than this, witches, vampires, now werewolves, and hell, even Grams dying but Tyler, I'm terrified right now." It only took a second before Bonnie's voice quivered and the dam of tears she's been holding for so long, finally let go.
"I'm not even 18 yet, just a month ago I didn't even know if I wanted to go to college, let alone if I'd even live long enough to go. N-now I can't, and I-" Tyler did what was instinct, he pulled Bonnie into him and held her as if the world was in his arms, which wasn't too far from the truth, in his eyes.
Tyler had to admit, as jarring as the news and just this entire day so far has been, (Bonnie woke him up at the ass crack of dawn, begging him to do her a favor while his uncle was gone, and if the situation weren't so serious he really would have flipped her off and went back to bed, his crush be damned.) he felt relieved. This is probably the most reckless regular teenager thing they've done in a minute. Accidental pregnancy he can handle, accidental superpowers, not so much.
"Shh, it's okay." Lifting Bonnie's face, he gently wiped her tears, noticing just how much this beautiful girl has been suffering. Even though he's not one for girly emotions, Tyler felt his heartbreak too, her pain felt like his pain, it was hard to see someone he loved like this.
"Bennett, look at me, I lo-appreciate you, you're one of the most feisty, strong, and downright badass small fry witches I've ever known. Which doesn't really say much since you're the only witch I know but still,-" Bonnie hiccuped and smiled at that, causing Tyler to smile and continue, "Having a baby won't change that, no matter how old you are. Instead of just being a badass teenage witch, you'll be a badass teenage witch mother, and either way, that sounds pretty dope to me. You got this, you have Mason, and me, that kid will be a Lockwood so they're already set. You're not alone and from now on, I'll never allow you to be."
Still sniffling, Bonnie wrapped her arms around Tyler and gripped his shirt for dear life. Her silent thank you since she currently was not in her right mind to respond to something as real and heartfelt as that. She felt safe and warm, something she hasn't felt since Grams' death, and Tyler's scent wrapped her up like a plush blanket on a cold day, expensive cologne, and light musk. Tyler buried his face in Bonnie's hair, their height difference was more noticeable at this moment than ever. Coconut and hibiscus filled his nostrils, he could even smell a faint touch of Mason and now himself, imprinted on Bonnie. It was heavenly and soothing. He could guess that the unawakened wolf inside of him reveled in it. Tyler used to feel like this when he was younger when he was around the caramel-skinned girl more. It didn't matter who was with them, Bonnie's scent was always stronger than anyone else's in the room. At the time he chose to blame it on puberty and her wearing heavy perfume, but one day he realized she never wore perfume, and he was long out of the more hormonal side of puberty. It was him, it was always him blindly attracted to her, and Tyler felt stupid for realizing it just now.
"So like, I know I'm the cousin but can I be a god-parent?" Bonnie giggled while walking around the Lockwood property with Tyler, after her breakdown earlier, although still scared out of her mind, Bonnie felt a little better, choosing to spend the day trying to take her mind off of it by setting things up at the Masquerade Ball and staying close to Tyler, since she hadn't heard from her boyfriend since he left abruptly in the morning, mumbling about meeting an old friend from Florida. Bonnie knew he was meeting with Katherine, call it intuition, and for some reason, it didn't bother Bonnie as much as it should have. She did have Tyler to keep her company, after all.
"First of all, I haven't even told it's real parent about it's existence, we'll get to other specifics when the time comes."
Tyler held his hands up in playful surrender, "Hey, I'm just calling dibs before you make tweedle-dee and tweedle-dum the god-parents before me. I will fight for the spot if I have to." Instinctively, the small girl smacked his toned arm for calling Elena & Caroline that, but the smile faded from her face once one of the mentioned girls came into view.
Ever since that day at the carnival a few weeks ago, Bonnie's communication with the Scooby gang was scarce, only to discuss supernatural related things, judge her taste in men or just in passing. It hurt the girl to be so closed off to people that once were her everything's (Damon not included) but she honestly didn't feel as bad as she would have pre-Mason, (What Tyler liked to call Bonnie nowadays since even he noticed the difference in her during this time.) and she didn't know whether or not she should feel bad.
Regardless, it sucks being left out, intentionally or not.
"Okay Maybe god-parent, I have to catch up with Elena, see you later?"
"Only if I secured the spot."
"Fine, you secured the spot."
"Fuck yeah."
Bonnie despised being persuaded (or rather manipulated) like this by Damon and Stefan, as soon as she had a full conversation with Elena for the first time in weeks, they immediately had to fall back into the routine of calling her for favors and then dropping her like a rag. It's degrading and frankly annoying.
"I know how you feel about helping us out, but since you're the one that's dating Mason, and you found out about his meetings with Katherine, we finally have an opportunity to get an upper hand on both of them, so, just hear us out."
Bonnie rolled her eyes at that and did not care if they saw it. Damon, she expects this type of shit from but Stefan? It's insulting.
They spent a few more minutes trying to persuade Bonnie to hurt her boyfriend, and the more they did, the more she realized just how much they have no regard for anyone in the name of Elena. It seemed sad and desperate from this angle, but Bonnie somewhat understood, Elena was the only human besides Matt in the Scooby gang and for some reason, the entire world was out to get her, does everyone have to get hurt to save one human being though? Shaking her head, Bonnie cleared those thoughts, choosing to help Damon with his stupid and dangerous plan, because crazy lives or not, Elena was her best friend, and she hoped Damon had the common decency to not do anything too bad to Mason, knowing they're still together.
Secretly, Bonnie was glad Caroline decided to join her in going to the Old Lockwood Property Well to receive the moonstone, after essentially leaving her baby daddy to the devil since she got the information on the moonstone's whereabouts, she was feeling a little tense, and no matter how scared and dreadful of the pregnancy she was, she didn't want to risk hurting her child in any way if they wanted her to do anything rough. Which truthfully, was gonna be hard with all the trouble they manage to throw Bonnie in.
Pulling herself out of her thoughts, Bonnie noticed Caroline was no longer by her side.
"Caroline!" Jogging, the young witch saw a frantic Caroline and Elena about to lower herself into the well.
"What's going on? You just took off in a blur."
"I heard Elena screaming. Help her, now!"
Bonnie grabbed the doppelgänger's hand, trying not to use too much weight or strength. She made a mental note that after this was done, she seriously needed to read up on all things pregnancy.
Bonnie and Caroline got a moment to rest but that soon ended when Elena yelled to pull Stefan up. Thankfully, the newborn vampire could pull him up herself, Elena was slightly harder though due to the vervain.
Bonnie finally could breathe once she saw the box holding the moonstone in Elena's hand, she thought their adventure for the day was over but Bonnie soon was overcome with a grave feeling, something wasn't right but she didn't know what. The aura of death washed over her and she subconsciously put a hand over her stomach, wishing whatever that was had nothing to do with Tyler or Mason.
Tyler jogged up the steps to his house, in a hurry because for some reason he felt something wasn't right with Mason, after him being gone all day and the drama with Bonnie, he felt slightly lost, so, running out of options, Tyler decided to ask his mother about his uncle's whereabouts. Hopefully, she'll know better than him.
"Actually Tyler, Mason headed back to Florida."
"What?"
"I'm sorry, honey. I know how much you two hit it off."
The young wolf felt like an entire bucket of cold water was dumped on him, he immediately wanted to deny it. "H-he wouldn't leave Bon- me. That doesn't make any sense."
"I know how close you guys got…. I was actually hoping he'd stick around...I thought that with your dad gone...anyway, he's gone. So, I guess it's just you and me now."
Carol attempted to console her son, it seemed like someone was always leaving him, more so than her.
Dejected, Tyler trudged up the stairs to his room, slamming the door in such a pubescent way it almost made him smile, but he couldn't, seeing as his uncle and his new cousin's father just left and he had no idea why. He soon grew angry, that dickhead chose himself over his own.
But, something still felt off, and with that nagging feeling, he knew telling Bonnie was not gonna be easy. Nothing ever truly was in Mystic Falls.
rip Mason, i still lowkey think that was one of the most useless tvd deaths ever lol.
