Bonnie and Enzo were in the basement running through spells before the twins were brought home in a week. They had to wake Angela up somehow, and Bonnie didn't want to give up.
"Bonnie, Love, you need to pace yourself, you're overdoing it," Enzo said when Bonnie wiped blood from under her nose and leaned over and took some deep breaths.
"Enzo, I can't stop. There has to be a way to free Angela's mind, and I want to do this before the twins come home next week, and I definitely need to release her from her prison before the fall comes," she explained and then leaned up and shook her hands out and closed her eyes and mumbled a chant. The chant made her mind reach out and search for Angela's on the spirit plane. This was the last place she knew to look. She almost gave in when she caught a glimpse of a scared Angela running.
"Angela!" Bonnie called out and Angela turned and looked at Bonnie.
"You're her!" Angela gasped as they ran towards each other. "I've heard you in my head," Angela murmured as they stood only a foot a part now.
"You're trapped in your mind. A witch put a curse on you, and I've been searching for weeks for a spell to break you out. Ben is waiting by your side," Bonnie coughed into her hand, seeing the blood, she clenched her fist and wheezed.
Angela frowned. "Are you hurting yourself trying to free me?"
Bonnie shook her head. "No no. I'm okay. I just need to figure out how to get you out," she wheezed again and then reached out her hand and Angela grasped it. Bonnie felt a large jolt, and then blackness. When she opened her eyes, Enzo was looking down at her, his hand rubbing her cheek in slow circles.
"Ah, there you are love," Enzo murmured. Bonnie looked around. She was laying on the ground.
"You gave me a fright. You went really pale and passed out. You stopped breathing Bonnie," he said, and Bonnie sat up, her head exploding in pain. She winced and brought her hand up to her face and wiped away the blood that had poured form both nostrils this time.
"I found her. The spirit plane, that's where they hid her. I grabbed her hand and then I blacked out," she coughed into her hand and saw the blood.
"That can not be good. You need to take it easy. You can't try that again," he said and helped her to her feet. She leaned heavily into him; her legs shaky. His arms snaked around her waist and he held her to him, bearing all of her weight so she could rest her legs.
She sighed. "Enzo, I have to keep trying. I can't leave her there."
"At least ask for Freya's help. She can go into the spirit plane or whatever and bring Angela back. There's no need for you to go there again."
"I'm going back Enzo," she said with a hard tone and pulled away from him and staggered and swayed. He caught her again so she wouldn't fall. Maybe Enzo was right, and she just needed to rest.
"I'll rest, and then I'll go back there," she muttered when she realized she wasn't going to be able to walk on her own right at this moment.
"Rest and figure out what you need to do once there. Going in blind isn't going to help. You'll just be going to the spirit plane without a plan," he tried to reason.
Bonnie thought about this. He wasn't wrong. She needed a plan once she was there. It wasn't good enough to just grab her hand and just click her heels together and chant there's no place like home. She tried to right herself again anyways, to try and prove her strength but she failed as her legs gave under her again and he was pulling her against his chest. His deep brown eyes stared into her hazel eyes in silence. Before she could say anything, his mouth found hers gently. He nudged her lips apart and she gave and parted her lips for him to taste. He could taste the leftover blood in her mouth, the sweetness of her breath was hot on his face as he broke the kiss before taking her mouth again. Her hands gripped his shirt tightly in her hands while his hands found her hips and gripped her to him.
Her mind was feeling hazy, and the warmth of his lips on hers made her hungry for more of him. She clung to him for dear life as she was afraid that the spinning room would make her fall away. Their kiss became more urgent, and hers sought his more greedily, not wanting him to pull away. When he did, her brain was still feeling like mush that she didn't know what had just happened. When the world stopped spinning, she shivered. His arms were still around her tightly, but his face was buried in her hair. She felt him shiver against her and his breathing was heavy, and she realized that hers was too.
"I…I'm sorry," Enzo finally said. He didn't know what had come over him, but something had, and now that he had tasted her, he didn't think that he could just let her go.
"Jeremy," was all Bonnie said before she took an uneasy step back. He let his arms drop to release her. When she didn't stagger or fall, he relaxed. Tears brimmed her eyes, but they didn't fall. She took a few steps backwards, hesitantly at first. What was she doing with Enzo? She loved Jeremy. Loved. Her heart didn't sing at the thought of his name anymore. She realized that for a while now, but she ignored the ache. The aching that she had felt since the day Enzo brought her Gran back to her. Was it just because Enzo was the hero in this story? Was she attracted to Enzo because she had given her one of the most important people in her life back to her? Was this just gratitude she felt? No. This was more than gratitude for a man that had done something heroic for her.
Before she registered it, she walked back to Enzo. She looked up into his lust-filled eyes. "I don't know what…. this feeling is. I can't describe it. I just…" she looked down now at her hands, which shook. "I just know that everything inside me is burning. Burning for…. you," she said as she looked back up at him. He let out a little growl as he reached out and yanked her against him again. This time he took her mouth hungrily. Her hands automatically lifted his shirt up over his head. She broke to look at him. His body was incredibly strong and when she moved a hand down his chest, she felt his muscles ripple under her hand. She took in a breath and then she crushed her mouth to his again. She let him rip away her shirt and then he moved his hands to her bottom and hitched her up, forcing her legs to wrap around him as he moved her against the wooden door that was closed in the basement. Once he had her pinned his hands went to her breasts, filling his hand with them. She moaned and then he was popping her bra apart, freeing her breast. He took one of her nipples in his mouth and she gasped with pleasure. Her hands wound into his hair as his tongue darted in circles around the nipple. His hands worked at her waist, pulling away her jeans and panties, leaving her standing there naked in front of him. He leaned back to look at her, admiring her stunning beauty. Then her hands were undoing his jeans, her heart hammering in her chest as she sprung him free. His body collided against hers again and then he was entering her quickly in one quick thrust. She gasped, adjusting to his large size, and when he saw the wave of pleasure fall over her face, he thrust into her fast and a little rough as they rode their pleasure together.
"Enzo," she gasped as she felt herself tense, the tingling hitting her belly first and then she came around him hard, vibrating around him. He groaned as she clenched around him. He thrust a few more times before emptying himself in her.
They stood, entwined together for a few moments before he leaned in and kissed her gently on the lips and then on the forehead. His breathing was starting to settle when he finally pulled away from her. She took in the sight of his naked body and she bit her lip. He was built like a god, and she should feel ashamed of what just transpired between them, but right now she couldn't feel anything but bliss.

Ezra and Freya were sitting at Mystic Grill enjoying lunch when Bonnie and Enzo came in. Bonnie seemed a bit flushed for some reason, but Ezra disregarded it. "Hey you two. How's the spells going?" He asked as he popped a fry in his mouth.
Freya swiveled her head, her blonde curls bouncing as she looked to Bonnie and Enzo. Her green eyes seemed to smile as she looked at Bonnie. "Hey Bonnie," she sang.
Bonnie tried a small smile and then sighed as she moved into the bench seat next to Ezra, and Enzo took a seat across from her next to Freya. Ezra and Freya moved over for them, Ezra still continuing to eat his food. "Well, I found Angela on the spirit plane. I'm having a hard time because it's taking a huge toll on my body," Bonnie explained and snatched one of Ezra's fries from him.
"The spirit plane is very taxing on the physical body," Freya said, frowning now. "You shouldn't try to go alone. I'll go with you. If Angela is there, then it should be simple to pull her back."
Enzo raised a brow. "It's simple?"
"Well yeah. Once you've found her on the spirit plane, it's just a matter of grabbing a hold of her and pulling her back with you," Freya explained and then ate a fry herself.
"I grabbed her hand before I blacked out," Bonnie said, leaning forward.
Freya shook her head. "You blacked out; your body was too weak. You have to chant the release part of the spell in order to pull her back."
"If only I knew that, I could have chanted it before I blacked out," Bonnie muttered, mostly to herself.
"Were you standing next to her on the physical plane?" Freya asked.
"Well no. I was in the basement…"
"You have to be next to her when you do the spell. Come on, let's get back and I'll go in with you. I'll lend you my power to help you get there," she said, taking a drink of her lemonade before batting Enzo's arm to signal him to get up. They slid out of the booth and they all headed back to the boarding house.
Once back at the boarding house they walked up the stairs to the room that Angela was in. Ben was still at her bedside. He was sleeping, but at the sound of the door, he woke up and got to his feet. He smiled at Bonnie. "Oh, hey Bonnie. She's still sleeping…" he said, his eyes going to Angela's sleeping face.
"We're going to get her out Ben," Bonnie said and smiled when Freya took her hand. They moved to one side of the bed and linked hands. Freya said a little chant, and Bonnie felt Freya's power join hers. Enzo and Ezra lit the candles like they have done so many times for Bonnie for spell runs. Ben took a step back to give them space. Bonnie began the same chant from earlier. She felt her mind reach out to the spirit plane and she called out again for Angela.
"You're okay! I was worried," Angela said from behind Bonnie. Bonnie turned and smiled, taking both of Angela's hands in hers. "I'm getting you out of here," she said before chanting the release to the spell. Bonnie opened her eyes and looked down to Angela who had shot up in bed, breathing heavily and sweat was beaded on her forehead. Ben scrambled onto the bed and pulled Angela into a hard hug. Tears were streaming down his face.
Angela looked dazed as she looked around the room and then saw Bonnie and smiled, tears coming to her own eyes as she reached a shaky hand out. Bonnie took Angela's hand in hers and smiled. "You're home," Bonnie whispered and then the four of them Angela and Ben to have some privacy for their reuniting moment.
"You did it," Freya said and hugged Bonnie.
"We did it. I don't think I could have had the power to do it without our help," Bonnie said, hugging Freya back.
Enzo smiled and pulled Bonnie to him and kissed the top of her head, grinning like a psychopath. "See Love, I told you Freya could help."
Bonnie laughed and was surprised at how easy it was to just be like this with Enzo. "Well, that's hurdle one. I still have the barrier to jump over before I can calm down. Fall is just right around the corner."
"We'll do it together," Freya said and linked her fingers with Bonnie's. Ezra smiled and then leaned in and kissed the top of Freya's head. It was a simple gesture and one that he hadn't done in front of others before, but he was tired to hiding affection for Freya when around everyone else. Bonnie and Enzo didn't seem surprised, and Freya leaned into Ezra when he done so, which made him feel happy inside.

August 13th, Bella 20 weeks-baby's growth 22 weeks ~Jaison and Renesmee 6 ½ weeks~
Violet carried Jaison in his car seat carrier into the boarding house with Damon right behind her with Renesmee. Bella was carrying one diaper bag and Elena was carrying the other, as well as a basket of goodies that the hospital sent home with the twins.
"I can't believe they're home!" Rebecca squealed when Violet and Damon emerged in the parlor with the twins. She rushed over to Damon when he set Renesmee down on the table. Rebecca very gently unbuckled her and slid her out of the car seat. She cradled her in the crook of her arm and cooed down at her, waggling a little finger against Renesmee's hand. Renesmee looked up at Rebecca with impossible stormy blue eyes. Her hair was starting to curl and was dark brown. A little curve played on her lips as she looked at Rebecca.
"Aww. She's just so precious, "Rebecca said as she sat in one of the armchairs.
Elena grinned as she set the basket of goodies down and turned to Violet who had taken Jaison out. "Okay okay. Let me see Jai," she said, and Violet handed him to Elena who was just as gone as Rebecca with baby cuteness overload.
Bella laughed at the sight. "Well those babies are definitely going to be the most loved babies."
There was a sudden knock at the door and Damon growled. He went to the door and opened it to look at a blonde Cold One standing in front of him with topaz eyes. Bella crept back to the doorway to see Rosalie standing there, timid.
"Rose?" Bella said and then she reached out and was hugging Rosalie suddenly. All Bella was thinking was Esme. Rosalie had lost a mother too. "I'm sorry about Esme…" she said into Rosalie's ear.
Rosalie smiled a small smile and then pulled back and looked at Bella. "It's okay. I owe you an apology. When Emmett took off and came here…I…. I acted badly. I was angry and I'm sorry, I have no excuses. I'm a bad person and- "
"It's okay Rose. I understand. You didn't like the situation from the beginning when me and Edward first started dating. You were always honest, and well, it's okay. Come in, "she said and stepped aside, brushing her back against Damon, who still let out a growl, but he let Rosalie enter his home.
"Come look at the twins, "Bella said and led Rosalie into the parlor. Elena and Rebecca had swapped babies now, and Stefan was standing over Elena's shoulder peering down at Renesmee and Jasper had a hand outreached, smiling as Renesmee grasped it with her tiny hand. The sight had Rosalie gasping.
"I…" she said softly.
Jasper looked up at his pretend twin sister and smiled a small smile. "Hey Rose. Emmett is on his way over in a little bit with Alice," he said and then when Renesmee dropped her grip he pulled away to let Rosalie have a look.
A bright smile was on Rosalie's face. "She's…perfect," she said and then looked up to Bella. "Can I?" and Bella nodded, smiling. Violet handed Rosalie Renesmee, and Rosalie cradled her gently. "Hey there… you are just beautiful," she cooed. Tears formed in her eyes. "Thank you," she murmured to Bella.
Damon rubbed a hand down Bella's back and leaned in and kissed her temple. "You know you're a better person than I am right?"
"Hmmm. I know," she said and then put a hand on her belly when one of the girls kicked hard. "They're getting strong," she said, and Damon's hand went to caress her belly. Rosalie watched the exchange. She couldn't lie, she did envy Bella for all that she was, but she was learning to accept the circumstances. She was just happy that Bella was so easily forgiving. She just wanted to be part of this family, now more than ever.
