Chapter 4 – why won't you love me?

Bonnie sat with her head on her knees after her shower avoiding a very pissed off Damon as he paced in front of the bed.

"I can't even begin to describe how mad I am at you"

"What reason do you have to be mad? I'm a single woman and Marcel is a very attractive man."

"He's a vampire! Why can't you see I want something normal for you?"

"Hello I dated Jeremy who was as normal as I could get and if you haven't noticed by now I'm a witch; normal doesn't come with the territory."

"Your grams did normal pretty well"

"Grams is dead, you can try normal all you want but things still end up bad for us witches." Bonnie shrugged.

"Bonnie" Damon just didn't know what to say or do; he pounced on the bed and pulled her into his arms hugging her fiercely.

"Can't you see that I care about you, you're important to me Bonnie; so very important. I can't let you take risks anymore. Who would I make pancakes and adorable pet names for?"

Bonnie held onto the lapels of his jacket snuggling into his embrace, tears threatening to fall.

"I didn't mean to make you cry" Damon said softly.

"It's not you Damon, I'm just… I'm sad I disappointed you… I hate feeling like I haven't lived up to someone's expectations." Bonnie sighed. Damon pulled back and held her arms glaring at her until she met his eyes.

"Don't ever cut yourself short, you have lost so much living up to expectations that you haven't lived for you. That stops now, no more being altruistic, no more sacrificing yourself for anyone else. We're binding your life to mine."

"Damon we can't do that! You will be stuck to me for life and one day you will view the bond as a burden."

"Damn it Bonnie" Damon growled he had the urge to brood like Stefan he also had the urge to pull out his own hair. The witch frustrated him to no end.

Bonnie felt bad for making her friend so frustrated.

"Okay, how about I run it by Caro and we take a vote." Bonnie said hoping to lure Caroline to her side.

"Fine, vampire Barbie and I are on the same page when it comes to you and the suicidal things you do." Damon said hoping onto the bed and pulling Bonnie over his chest.

"This is not FAIR" Kai fumed as he flung the door open.

"I clean up after you, cook for you, and cater to all your nonsensical whims, and this is how you repay my devotion Bonnie?"

"Deal with him or I'll kill Porky" Damon said for Bonnie's ears only.

"Why won't you love me?" Kai screamed as Bonnie used her magic to slam the door in his face knocking him unconscious. Hayley who has been walking by kicked him out the way. Elijah then threw him out a window as his form had been blocking the staircase.

"Do we have to keep him around Bon? I could get you a puppy or a kitten, I'll even get you a gold fish if you want."

"This one's house trained Damon, and he actually is a good cook even with his strange eating habits."

"I still wanna rip his face off."

"Damon"

"Hmmm"

"What about Elena, you loved her so much. How are you going to go on without her?"

"I loved the idea of having my version of Katherine… Elena is the way my romanticized version of Katherine is supposed to be, minus Stefan of course. It took me months living in a prison world to figure that one out. I wanted to go back for Stefan and Elena because they're my family Bon."

"This is nice" Bonnie said as she took in Damon's scent.

"Did you just sniff me, like a dog? Does the little bird want to be a little puppy?" Damon said before launching a tickle attack at the squealing witch, who eventually had to give him an aneurism so that they could get some sleep. Damon could go on and on when he was in a childish mood.

A/N: Short cute Bamon friendship, I was going to go full on Bamon then I realized that Bamon should never be rushed, the magic of them developing and realizing their feelings and the sexual tension thereafter are delicious. Going to be focusing a little more on Klaroline then back to Bamon. I honestly can't pick one between Klaroline and Bamon... Please drop a review, like and follow me. I have several Bamon fics that I pulled down which I have been reworking and which I will publish soon as I am done with this fic.

Love
