Chapter Seven:

"Dude, how are we even friends if you've never seen Edward Scissorhands?!" Kai exclaimed in disbelief as he threw a handful of popcorn at Kol. Kol just smirked and chuckled.

"Forgive me, mate. I have no idea what I was thinking." He apologized halfheartedly. Kai just continued to shake his head.

"Maybe he needs you to kiss it better?" I suggested. They both looked at me.

"Perhaps it would mean more if it came from you, darling." Kol mused. Kai shook his head. I could tell that he wanted to mess with Kol, just by the look on his face.

"I'm hurt, Kol. You won't even try to make it up to me?" Kai pouted, obviously trying to get Kol to lay one on him. Kol gave Kai a smirk of his own before placing a tender kiss on Kai's lips. He moved his lips against Kai's in a sensual rhythm. Both of them were getting caught up in the kiss and damn was it a sight to see. By the time they broke away, they were both panting against each other.

"How is that for making it up, love?" Kol asked him softly. Kai smirked at him and gave him a wink, before giving Kol a peck on the mouth for good measure.

"Perfect," he breathed. "But I'm afraid that poor Bonnie was left out." Kai mused. Their attention turned to me and I gulped. They both looked at me with hungry eyes. I knew that I was probably in over my head, but I wasn't sure that I cared. I wasn't about to complain.

"Forgive us, darling?" Kol purred, as he kissed his way up my body. I tried to swallow the lump in my throat. When I had sprawled out on the couch, I hadn't thought anything of it. Of course, I never thought that laying down would make it easier to be seduced by my gorgeous boyfriends, either. I groaned, when his lips finally touched my neck.

"I dunno Kol. It sounds like she might forgive us. What do you think?" Kai asked, as hovered over both of us, as his lips captured mine. It was definitely a tight squeeze for all of us on the couch, but neither of them seemed to mind.

"I think we should keep making it up to her, mate." Kol insisted. They were sending my body into sensory overload. Kol's hands moved lower and my underwear were being pulled down. No warning flags went off and I felt surprisingly ready for it. Kai moved his tongue against mine in a magical way. Went I felt Kol's mouth touch my upper thighs, I jumped. They both pulled away. "Is this okay?" He asked me, quietly. I nodded, but didn't say anything. Kol's tongue shot inside of me and I gasped. Kai touched his lips back to mine and swallowed my moans. They both moved with seasoned precision. It didn't take long until I was hurdling over my release. They let me ride out my high.

"How was that, babe?" Kai asked me. I smiled at him, lazily.

"Perfect," I breathed. I let my eyes flutter closed and enjoyed feeling completely relaxed. I can't even remember the last time I had an orgasm. Wow. "Thank you." I whispered.

"Believe me, when I say that it was my pleasure, darling." Kol promised, before bringing his lips to mine.

"I… I don't think I'm ready for anything more… not so soon. I'm sorry." I apologized, forcing myself to focus.

"Hey, seriously, we both meant it when we told you no pressure. If you're not ready for sex, then we'll wait. Sex isn't a priority for us. Whenever you're ready is fine." Kai promised. The look in his eyes was so genuine, that hit me completely off guard.

"I can still…" I bit my lip trying to figure out how to word my off.

"It's fine, love. We were making it up to you, remember?" Kol reminded me. Is he serious? He really doesn't want me to try and return the favor?

"But… I… Are you sure? Because every time I've had… Well, it's always been because… something was expected in return or because someone wanted something." I admitted in a voice, barely above a whisper.

"We aren't Damon, sweetheart." Kol reminded me.

"I know that we're still getting to know each other, but I promise you that neither of us was tell you something that we didn't mean." Kai added. I nodded, still trying to take everything in. If nothing else, it showed how completely toxic my relationship with Damon was.

"We will never try to manipulate you, especially in something as personal as making love." Kol pulled me onto his lap and held me. Kai excused himself and returned with warm, damp washcloth. He cleaned me up and helped me put my underwear back on. They both held me and I nestled between them. This is nice.

"I don't know what kind of shit that idiot pulled with you, but I promise you that won't happen with us. We meant what we said. We want to take care of you." Kai told me.

"I don't want that. I don't want to be the only one who benefits from this relationship. If I am… then I'm no better than Damon." I argued.

"That could never happen, darling. Sometimes, we just need to feel needed. Let us take care of you, and I assure you that we'll let you do the same for us. There are much more than physical needs in relationships. Neither of us have really had successful relationships where our emotional needs were met. Believe it or not, sweetheart, you do that for us." Kol admitted. I looked up at him and he stroked the side of my face with his hand. Maybe they're right… Maybe we'll be able to figure this out together.

"Together?" I asked them, not sure why I need so much reassurance. Is something that wrong with me?

"Together," they agreed in unison. And suddenly, I wanted to believe that everything would be alright and actually work out. Maybe they're right?

"Whatever you're overthinking, don't. Whatever you think is wrong with you, isn't. Okay, babe? Damon is an idiot. And he's an ass for making you feel like something was wrong with you, when he couldn't appreciate what he had and mistreated you." I don't know how Kai does it, but sometimes it's like he can read my mind. "I'm serious, Bon. You're perfect the way you are. Eventually, you're going to be confident and comfortable with yourself. I promise."

-.-

We spent the rest of the day together. It was nice. They offered to stay the night and I accepted their offer. I felt weird staying alone, after Damon showed up earlier. We ended up talking about everything and nothing. They told me about what it was like growing up. Kol and Kai both came from big families, but they both felt ignored growing up. I could sort of relate as an only child, who really only had my Grams growing up.

"This is nice." Kol whispered, as we laid together in bed. I nodded, against him. We were watching some low-budget horrible movie on the SyFy channel.

"A guy could get used to this, watching movies so bad that they're good with his two favorite people." Kai mused.

"This could be our tradition." I suggested.

"Deal."
