Disclaimer: I do not own anything related to The Vampire Diaries, TV show or books. However I decided to have a little play around with the characters (I would definitely like to play with Damon).

I didn't start watching TVD until January 2017, so I missed out on what Julie did/didn't promise. Enzo has a role to play in my story, and it's not just about love. Whether there becomes a bit of a friendship triangle with Ric and Damon, I'm not sure. If it does happen it will be organic and unplanned, but I will keep it in mind.
I apologize now if grammar and spelling ends up being poor in this chapter. I'm made up with a stinking cold and my brain is only operating at 70%.
I hope you enjoy this chapter.
Damon and Stefan arrived back at the dorm only a couple of minutes later while Jesse was still lying dead on the bed. Damon stood at the threshold waiting for Enzo's explanation as to how he knew about the experiment.
"So I overheard Dr. Maxfield telling someone about him conditioning the new vampire into drinking vampire blood instead of human blood." he told Damon.
"That doesn't mean he automatically will crave vampire blood." Damon told him. "My brother here..." he said pointing to Stefan, "He drinks bunny blood."
Enzo frowned. "Why?" he asked.
"None of your business." Stefan told him coldly.
"And we know of another vampire called Mikael who only fed on vampire blood." Damon said. "He didn't want to hurt humans so he opted to feed from vampires instead." he explained. "I can see the logic in trying to see if it's possible to do it, although instead of subjecting a vampire to experiments, he only had to ask." he smirked.
"Well if you're that confident, why don't you wait in here with me." Enzo raised an eyebrow.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you." Stefan warned Damon.
"It could be a trap." Ric added.
Damon hesitated. He wanted to show his friend he trusted him, and frankly he didn't care if Jesse lived or died, but he suspected Elena did, therefore he wanted to be careful not to hurt the new vampire. However if Jesse did only feed from vampires, he could become a problem, and Damon didn't want to take the risk. However, Damon was older, stronger, and well fed, therefore he would be faster than Jesse, meaning he would only have to worry about whether Enzo was baiting him or not. After what seemed like an eternity of inner turmoil, he decided to show faith in his friend.
"Bon Bon, should anything happen to me, you know what to do." he said to Bonnie so everyone could hear. "If he snaps my neck, keep him down with a witchy migraine until I'm okay." he said telepathically.
"Okay, fine." Bonnie replied to both questions as Damon stepped over the threshold.
"Brave." Enzo smiled.
"Or stupid!" came Caroline's voice from behind. Damon turned around to see Elena and Caroline stood with their arms folded staring at the scene.
"Well hello gorgeous." Enzo smirked looking at Caroline. "I think I could get used to this type of captivity lark. Please tell me this is also your room." he said.
"It is!" Caroline raised an eyebrow.
"Well I'm quite happy to be left here with you." Enzo smiled sweetly at Caroline.
"I don't think so." Caroline shook her head.
"She's going through man trouble." Damon told Enzo. "Or should I say mutt trouble."
"Mutt trouble?" Enzo looked at Damon confused.
"Her ex is a werewolf..." Damon started.
"Wait, those things are real?" Enzo looked at everyone in surprise.
"Yeah, and don't pet one if you wanna live." Matt smirked.
"Their venom kills vampires." Damon added. "I should know." he nodded.
"And yet here you are." Enzo raised an eyebrow, understanding Damon's comment.
"Urgh." came a noise from behind Enzo as Jesse started to move. "What happened?" he asked, sitting up and rubbing his neck.
"We needed to get you out of that lab quickly." Stefan explained.
"So you just knocked me out?" Jesse frowned.
"Actually no, he broke your neck and killed you." Enzo smirked.
"What the hell..." Jesse started.
"Don't worry. They did the same to me." Enzo continued. "Apparently holding us prisoner is their idea of rescuing us from being imprisoned." he said turning to Damon. "And how exactly is this going to work?" he asked.
"We're going to take you back to my place." Damon explained. "Which is a little more luxurious than this, and help you get used to the modern world." he then turned to Jesse. "And help you learn how to control your hunger." he said.
"Oh I don't know. I quite like it here." Enzo smiled. "Especially if gorgeous over there is living here." he nodded his head in the direction of Caroline.
"I'm hungry." Jesse complained.
"There's blood bags in the mini fridge." Caroline told him as Jesse pulled one out and opened it. Once he started drinking, he pulled a face in disgust.
"What's wrong?" Elena asked suspiciously.
"It tastes like fresh air." Jesse complained.
"Oh-oh." Enzo said slowly.
"What exactly does Dr. Maxfield specialize in?" Damon asked.
"Applied microbiology." Caroline told him. "Why?" she asked.
"What exactly is applied microbiology?" Damon asked.
"It's the study of microscopic organisms, such as bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa." Jesse told him. "It includes research on the biochemistry, physiology, cell biology, ecology, evolution..." he said as he started to drink a second bag of blood.
"He did some very different types of tests." Enzo explained. "Gone are the days of simple cornea removal. Now it's all about infections."
"And how to cure them?" Damon asked.
"Well it's a bit pointless infecting a vampire if you're looking for a cure to said infection." Enzo rolled his eyes. "No, he was up to something else. Something far more sinister." he added as Damon noticed Jesse had stopped drinking from his blood bag and was now stood behind Enzo with his eyes fixated on Enzo's neck. Suddenly he noticed the veins around Jesse eyes grow, longer than what he'd seen on a normal vampire.
"Um, Enzo..." he started as Jesse's fangs descended and he threw his blood bag to one side.
"Raaaah!" Jesse roared as he bit down on the side of Enzo's neck.
Enzo's eyes went wide with shock and then pain. "Help." he gurgled. "He's kil..." he stopped unable to continue.
Bonnie closed her eyes to try and give Jesse one of her headaches but it wasn't working.
"Bonnie!" Damon cried.
"It's not working." Bonnie shook her head confused.
"Jesse no!" Caroline cried out.
"Stop Jesse!" Elena cried at the same time, but Jesse didn't listen.
Damon vamp-sped behind Jesse and pulled him off Enzo, who dropped to the floor. Jesse turned around and attacked Damon, who tried to push him off. However much to Damon's shock and horror, Jesse was significantly stronger than he was. Jesse's mouth clamped down on Damon's neck with such a force it was actually painful. He glanced down at Enzo who was struggling to get to his feet. Damon started to feel lightheaded, and knew Jesse wouldn't be able to stop until he was bled dry and dead.
"DAMON!" Elena screamed. "Jesse, Jesse, let go. Jesse! Please let Damon go." she pleaded.
"He's gonna tear my head off. Elena, please." Damon cried weakly.
Elena vamp-sped into the room, ignoring the cries of Caroline, Ric, Stefan and Matt. She tore a leg off a chair, rushed over and stabbed Jesse in the back. The vampire stopped and turned his head before his body and face turned gray and veiny, and he dropped to the floor with a thud. Elena rushed over to Damon, who had also collapsed to check he was okay.
"No! No!" Caroline screamed.
"Oh my god no." Bonnie cried.
Elena looked back over to the door where everyone stood, shocked at the turn of events. Caroline rushed over to Jesse. "No, Jesse! Jesse, come here. Hold on. Hold on." she begged. "Just stay with me, please. Jesse, just stay with me, please." she pleaded as she put his head on her lap and she started to stroke his face. "No." she cried as she looked over to Elena. "What did you do?" she asked.
"He was gonna kill Damon..." Elena started, as she looked down at Jesse's dead body as guilt washed all over her.
"You could have staked him somewhere else on his body to stop him without killing him." Caroline glared at Elena.
"And what about when he turned on her?" Damon groaned. "There are bigger things at stake with Elena." with Elena's help he sat up. "You'd be prepared to forfeit the lives of the people you care about for the sake of a guy you barely know?" he frowned in confusion.
"He was innocent!" Caroline insisted.
"He was designed to kill vampires." Enzo said, finally sitting up. "He'd have been dead soon enough. I did warn you." he sighed, getting up and swaying until he got to the mini fridge, pulled out two blood bags and tossed one over to Damon.
"Thanks." Damon smiled grimly.
"Why didn't you try and take him down Bonnie?" Caroline asked as she started to sob.
"I did. It didn't work, he was too strong." Bonnie replied, lowering her eyes.
"We need to dispose of the body." Stefan sighed.
"Well I'm going to feel really creeped out staying here tonight." Caroline shuddered.
"I'll deal with the body." Ric offered. "You stay with Caroline." he told Stefan.
"Maybe we'll go back to the ball later." Stefan suggested. "Try and deflect away from arousing suspicion." he said.
"Good call." Ric nodded.
"What about me?" Bonnie frowned.
"You're with me and Elena, helping us get Enzo settled in at our place." Damon said. "We need you to do the protection spell." he added as Bonnie nodded in response.
"And me?" Matt asked.
"You can come with me." Ric told him.
"I'll help with the body." Matt agreed. "Then I'll get my truck and go home. It's not exactly late." he said.
"Fine, suit yourself." Damon shrugged.
"Okay, so are we fine to lower the boundary spell?" Ric asked. "I'm not going to get the body out until we do." he said.
"Do you promise not to disappear?" Damon asked Enzo. "If you do, you are in serious danger from a group of particularly evil witches. And an immortal who can read your mind and make you his puppet." he warned.
"So rescuing me has put me in even more danger." Enzo rolled his eyes. "Wonderful. Can I go back to my cell now?" he added sarcastically.
"You'll be fine." Bonnie assured him.
"Okay witch, let me out of here and I promise to come quietly." Enzo smirked.
"Oh I know you will." Bonnie smiled back knowingly, as she walked into her dorm and pulled out a piece of rope from under her bed and began to tie it around Enzo's wrists.
"You do know I'm very strong." Enzo frowned.
"Oh I know." Bonnie grinned as she took the other end. "Now I want you to follow me." she said as Enzo felt his body automatically follow her.
"What is going on?" Enzo asked confused as he started to walk behind Bonnie.
"The rope makes you do what I ask you to do." Bonnie smiled.
"Ooh, clever." Enzo nodded, sounding impressed. "I can think of some very kinky uses for this." he grinned as they walked outside and to Ric's car.
"Shut up!" Bonnie snapped at Enzo.
"Hitting a nerve there I see." Enzo raised an eyebrow.
"We'll have to use my car." Bonnie sighed as she realized Ric needed his to take Jesse's body.
"I'll take care of Enzo while you drive and Elena rides shotgun." Damon suggested.
"This is a car?" Enzo raised an eyebrow at the sight of Bonnie's Toyota Prius.
"Yeah, they've evolved a bit since 1943." Damon frowned as he opened the rear door and pushed Enzo in, as the car hummed to life and they set off to the Salvatore house.
Stefan and Caroline watched Damon, Elena, Bonnie, Enzo, Matt and Ric, who was carrying Jesse's dead body, leave the room. Caroline sat on her bed and Stefan joined her and took her hand.
"You're not just upset about Jesse are you?" he asked as Caroline looked up at him and shook her head. "It's about Tyler isn't it?"
Caroline nodded. "Yes." she sobbed.
"Hey." Stefan smiled softly. "Tyler is only trying to goad you. You can't let him win." he said.
"How?" Caroline asked as her tears began to slowly subside.
"If he wants you to move on, then at least let him think you've moved on." Stefan suggested, as Caroline lowered her eyes sheepishly. "And that was why you liked Jesse, because he was someone who you could make Tyler think you've moved on with, without complications?" he asked as Caroline nodded.
"And now he's dead." she sighed. "He didn't deserve this." she shook her head. "Elena..." she started.
"Elena was protecting the man she loved." Stefan stopped her. "You'd do the same in her shoes."
"I guess." Caroline agreed.
"Why don't we go back to the ball?" Stefan suggested. "You dance with me all night. It'll really give Tyler something to think about." he winked.
Caroline thought for a moment. "Okay." she smiled. "I'll just repair my make-up and we'll get back to the ball." she said.
"I'll let Damon know." Stefan told her. "We'll see if Dr. Maxfield is still there." he said as he got out his phone and started to text Damon.
Once they'd returned to the Salvatore household, Damon showed Enzo to one of the spare bedrooms. Initially he was going to put him in a specially made cell he'd had built in the garage, however Enzo had been far more compliant than expected, and Matt wasn't staying, which meant, other than Bonnie, who Enzo would stand no chance feeding from, the house was living human blood free. Damon showed him his en-suite bathroom and how to use the multi-head shower, before leaving his friend to freshen up after what he assumed would be a long time. The vampire lab rats weren't allowed such luxury as a shower or a bath, so Damon knew this would be heaven for his friend. Damon left some clean clothes on the bed, hoping they would fit as Enzo was slightly taller than him.
Twenty minutes later, Enzo entered the kitchen and joined Damon, Elena (who had changed out of their costumes and into more comfortable clothing) and Bonnie around the island. There were a couple of blood bags waiting for him and a glass of bourbon.
"I could get used to this." Enzo smiled. "I take it this is your place." he said to Damon. "Considering I didn't need to be invited in."
"It's ours." Damon corrected him as he put his arm around Elena.
"Ah this must be the love of your life who you used to talk about." Enzo smiled. "What was her name again...Katherine?" he asked as Damon, Elena and Bonnie winced.
"I'm Elena." Elena introduced herself.
"Charmed." Enzo took Elena's hand and kissed it. "I take it you fell out with the other one." he said.
"She turned out to be a raging bitch." Damon grimaced.
"I'm Bonnie." Bonnie smiled, interrupting the conversation.
"Nice to meet you Bonnie." Enzo replied, although the sarcasm was evident in his voice, causing Bonnie's smile to drop. "So..." he looked at Damon. "I think you've got some explaining to do." he said. "You left me and it's taken how many years to find me and rescue me? I take it loyalty is not one of your strong suits." he stared at Damon with a stony face.
"It wasn't that simple." Damon protested. "I didn't see any point in both of us dying. And we wouldn't both be stood here if I hadn't left you. We'd wither be dead or both still in a cell being experimented on."
"So what happened?" Enzo asked. "How could you leave your friend to die? Are you really so callous?" he asked.
Damon looked sheepish. "I turned it off." he replied. "I knew the only way I could save myself was turning it off."
"Ah, a temporary guilt reprieve which only compounds matter when you do horrific things while the humanity is off." Enzo raised an eyebrow. "Happy days then."
"Not exactly." Damon admitted. "Took me fifty years to be able to turn it back on." he said.
"Oh the hardship." Enzo rolled his eyes. "So how did you realize I was still alive?" he asked.
"When you killed my roommate." Bonnie told him.
"Ah yes." Enzo smiled. "Filled with vervain, but I'm used to that so it didn't hurt too much." he said as Bonnie glared at him in disgust.
"We found her." Elena explained and saw the bite marks. "When the police said it was suicide, we knew something didn't add up." she said.
"So you immediately put two and two together and assumed I'd survived?" Enzo raised an eyebrow as if he didn't believe him.
Damon looked at Elena, knowing this was her decision to tell Enzo about her father. He nodded as he believed Enzo wouldn't hurt her, but ultimately it was her choice.
"We didn't." Elena told him. "We found out from Dr. Maxfield that Grayson Gilbert had been doing research." she said.
"Ah Dr. Gilbert." Enzo sighed. "A particularly nasty piece of work. Quite the fan of electrocution. Thought he could change a vampire's basic urges by frying our brains." he said as Elena winced. "Funny thing is he disappeared a few years ago. Was replaced by Dr. Maxfield."
"He died in a car accident." Elena swallowed.
"Good. Glad something bad happened to him." Enzo smirked. "Please tell me his entire family died with him."
"No I didn't." Elena snapped. "My name is Elena Gilbert. My mom and dad died in the accident." she growled, ready to attack Enzo. Damon held her back, feeling her anger flowing throughout her body.
"I'd like to say I'm sorry, but I'm not." Enzo told her. "He tortured me for over ten years. I have every fucking right to hate him!" he said angrily.
"On the plus side, it appears Grayson Gilbert had a big hand in your rescue." Damon intervened before things became ugly. "Without him, we wouldn't have known you were alive." he said.
"How?" Enzo frowned.
"We found my dad's journals." Elena said calmly. "He kept records of his experiments."
"I wondered if it were you." Damon continued where Elena left off. "We went through his journals and found your serial number." he explained. "Then we hatched a plan to rescue you."
"Okay, so I won't kill you." Enzo sighed.
"Or my brother." Elena glared at him.
Enzo took a deep breath. "Or your brother." he agreed. "But only because you helped rescue me. Unless of course you split up..." he started.
"We won't." Damon glared at Enzo.
"Well that's never a given." Enzo shook his head. "Eternity with one woman?" he laughed. "I can't see that happening. You're not the settling down type."
"You clearly don't know Damon very well." Elena folded her arms.
"On the contrary." Enzo smirked. "I probably know him better than you." he said. "The fact he left me to die should be enough for you to question his loyalty. He might mean what he says right now, but what about in a hundred years time? Do you really think he'll stay faithful?" he asked.
Damon slowly took a deep breath before opening his mouth to speak. "I want you to be quiet and then tell me what you hear in this room." he said as they all went silent.
Enzo shook his head in confusion. "Heartbeats." he said.
"How many?" Damon asked.
"Five..." Enzo replied and then stopped. "But there are only four of us here." he raised an eyebrow as he turned to Bonnie. "I take it you're pregnant." he frowned before returning his gaze back to Damon. "What has she got to do with anything?" he asked.
"I'm not pregnant." Bonnie told him.
"I am." Elena stated.
"That's impossible." Enzo said, taken aback by the news.
"I'm the father." Damon told him.
"But vampires can't procreate." Enzo shook his head.
"They can when two soulmates with supernatural destinies come together, they can." Bonnie explained.
"And can't keep their hands off of each other." Damon grinned.
"I'm sorry, I don't believe you." Enzo narrowed his eyes.
"Fine!" Elena said as she reached behind her neck and removed her necklace, to reveal her swollen belly.
"Oh!" Enzo's eyes widened with shock. "That's...that's..." he started, practically speechless.
"Going to be a baby girls in a few months." Damon said proudly as he ran his hand over Elena's stomach.
"And that's why you're confident you'll be together forever?" Enzo asked.
"They're official soulmates in a two thousand year old prophesy." Bonnie explained. "It won't occur to either of them to cheat." she said confidently. "Soulmates don't cheat, especially supernatural ones." she added.
"Oh my god, how vomit inducing." Enzo rolled his eyes.
"Tell me about it." Bonnie grimaced. "But at least it serves a purpose." she said.
"Other than to make people want to throw up?" Enzo asked.
"The prophesy is about the baby stopping an evil witch bringing back every dead supernatural being from roaming the earth." Bonnie explained. "They are breaking a curse and taking down a coven of pretty nasty witches with it." she told him.
"They massacre twelve people every full moon to boost their powers." Damon said.
"Nice." Enzo nodded.
"Which is why you need protection from them." Bonnie said. "I'll need to do the spell tonight. Otherwise they might try and find you and try and Silas might try to get inside your head."
"If anyone found out we rescued you, you'll be a target." Bonnie explained. "So for the time being I'm in charge of you." she folded her arms.
"Which is why your bedroom is next to Bon Bon's." Damon smiled. "Plus it's at the other end of the house, so you won't hear anything vomit inducing." he smirked.
"What about the gorgeous blonde one." Enzo asked. "Is she coming back here?"
"Caroline you mean? Probably." Elena nodded. "But Stefan is calming her down, and then they're going to go back to the ball to see if Dr. Maxfield is still there.." she said.
"Your brother Stefan?" Enzo asked Damon who nodded. "Are they courting, him and Caroline?"
"Not yet." Damon replied. "Although they are extremely close. It's just a matter of time." he said.
"Oh well." Enzo yawned. "Story and apology over and accepted. I think it's time for bed." he said.
"For Elena and me, yes." Damon agreed. "For you and Bon Bon, not quite." he said with a glint in his eye.
"Why, what's going on?" Enzo asked, looking at everyone warily.
"Remember I told you about the crazy evil witches?" Damon asked as Enzo nodded. "You will need a spell to protect you from them, casting as soon as possible, which is why Bonnie needs to do it before you get some sleep." he insisted. "Ooh." he suddenly said, reaching for his pocket to pull out his cell phone as he'd just received a text. "A text from Stefan." he said as he read it out loud. "Dr. Maxfield is still at the ball. Don't wait up."
"That sounds ominous." Bonnie smirked.
"You don't think..." Elena started.
"Look, I know you think town gossip is the most important thing right now." Enzo sighed. "But believe me, when you haven't had the luxury of sleeping in a real bed for seventy years, trust me, that bed suddenly becomes a priority." he complained.
"Okay, but I need to perform the spell first." Bonnie told him.
"Fine." Enzo huffed. "Let's get this over and done with." he said.
"First we need something of yours." Bonnie told him. "Go and get something you were wearing when you got here." she said. "I can use that as your talisman."
"Whatever." Enzo said as he returned to his room to get his shirt.
"Goodnight Bon Bon." Damon smiled. "Thanks for tonight." he said.
"You're welcome." Bonnie smiled back.
"Goodnight Bonnie." Elena hugged her friend.
"Goodnight Elena." Bonnie replied as Damon and Elena went to bed, leaving Bonnie all alone to deal with Enzo.
Enzo returned to find only Bonnie left in the kitchen. She was stood alone at the island with a glass of water and a candle in the middle. The candle was the talisman representing the baby, the item of clothing Enzo brought, which turned out to be a shirt, was to represent Enzo. The water was symbolic of the magic to bind the two together and form the protection required to keep Enzo safe. There was no incantation for this spell. Instead Bonnie simply needed to close her eyes and will the baby to protect Enzo from Silas's mind control. However, first she decided she needed to explain what she was doing to make sure she didn't scare Enzo.
"How long since you last saw magic?" Bonnie asked Enzo after he'd returned with his shirt.
"Since before the war." Enzo told her. "Wasn't really into the whole witch thing to be quite honest." he said. "I preferred to be a soldier. It's what I wanted to do when I was human, and once I became a vampire, I figured I'd be more useful in war than I had been before." he shrugged.
"That's pretty noble of you." Bonnie said, vaguely impressed.
"Plus there's plenty to feed on without raising suspicion." Enzo smirked.
"Oh." Bonnie's face fell.
"No blood bags back the witchy." he shook his head.
"It's Bonnie." Bonnie gritted her teeth. Finally Damon was calling her something related to her name, and now Enzo had come in and started with the silly nicknames.
"Whatever." Enzo yawned. "Can we just do the bloody spell?" he asked. "I want to get into a soft bed as opposed to a cold, hard, stone floor."
"Okay." Bonnie said as she turned to the candle. "Phas matos incendia." she chanted as the candle lit.
"Impressive." Enzo nodded as Bonnie looked at him suspiciously, unsure whether he was being sarcastic or wasn't used to magic.
"While I cast the spell I'll close my eyes, the candle will burn brighter and the water will boil." she explained. "Don't worry, it's supposed to do that."
"Okay, go ahead and wave that magic wand." Enzo smiled.
Bonnie closed her eyes and began to perform the spell. Exactly as she predicted, the flame on the candle lit higher and the water started to bubble in the glass. Enzo looked nervously at Bonnie, who's eyes were tightly shut, apparently oblivious to how unsettling the sight in front of her was to the eye of someone who wasn't used to seeing magic. Eventually the water stopped bubbling and the flames went out. After that Bonnie opened her eyes.
"It's done." she smiled. "You are all protected from Silas's mind manipulation." she told him.
"Good." Enzo looked at her suspiciously. "Oh come on love, you know you are protecting them as much as you are protecting me." he said making Bonnie feel uncomfortable, especially as the only person she knew who used the term love was Klaus, which wasn't exactly a pleasant comparison.. "Why?" he asked.
"Because it is apparently my destiny." Bonnie smiled.
"To serve those two?" Enzo frowned. "Really? Aren't you allowed a life of your own?" he asked.
"Of course." Bonnie replied. "But sometimes we are born to have a certain purpose in life. Mine is to help protect the world from Silas and the Travelers. Once the baby is born, my role will technically be fulfilled, however Elena is my best friend. Of course I'm going to want to be there for her when she brings up her daughter. I can't wait." she smiled.
"A loyal friend then." Enzo raised an eyebrow.
"I guess." Bonnie sighed. "And you?" she asked. "You seem to have forgiven Damon a little bit too quickly for my liking." she folded her arms.
"You're very protective of him." Enzo tilted his head. "Do you have a thing for him."
"No." Bonnie shook her head. "Damon, Elena and I are linked by magic for the duration of Elena's pregnancy. The baby is extremely powerful and I had to be linked to them so it would allow me to draw down its magic. If I didn't, so much power would overwhelm Elena and possibly kill her. Through that link I've inadvertantly gotten to know Damon more than he'd have wanted me to get to know him."
"Oh yes." Enzo remarked.
"He's not a soulless monster." Bonnie explained. "He was really upset when he found out you were alive, yet at the same time he was really happy."
"Why was he upset?" Enzo narrowed his eyes.
"I think he figured death was a better option than being tortured by the Augustine's for another fifty years." Bonnie replied. "Then he felt guilty for leaving you."
"I didn't think Damon Salvatore did guilt." Enzo shrugged.
"Only when it comes to the list of people he cares about enough to die for." Bonnie told him. "And trust me, that list is very, very small. But you are on it." she smiled. "So have you forgiven Damon?" she asked.
"I suppose." Enzo sighed. "It's not going to do me a lot of good holding a grudge. He got strong enough to get me out, granted fifty odd years later..." he sighed.
"I hope so." Bonnie smiled sweetly. "Because if you're lying, I have a few little party tricks to protect my friends." she warned him. "I wouldn't want to have to use them on you. Instead I'd prefer we show you the sights and sounds of the twenty first century. It's far more fun." she said.
"You wouldn't know if I'm lying." Enzo smiled.
Bonnie walked over to Enzo and stood facing him, squaring him up. "Oh but that's where you are wrong." she smirked. "For now I'm choosing to believe you, but if I even suspect you are up to something, or are a threat to my friends, I'll do something so bad, you'll wish Damon had never rescued you." she threatened him.
"Such as?" Enzo raised an eyebrow.
"Oh but that would be telling." Bonnie teased. "But the moral of the story is right now I don't trust you. I want you to prove me wrong, because if you fuck with my friends, I'll make you wish you were back in that lab having your eyes ripped out." she snarled.
"Okay." Enzo agreed, taking a deep breath. "I don't mess with anyone you care about, you don't hurt me. Deal?" he held his hand out.
"Deal!" Bonnie shook it. "Nobody knows about this conversation right?"
"Nobody knows Bonnie." Enzo nodded in agreement, before deciding to change the subject. "Well I think it's time we hit the sack, don't you?" he suggested.
"Okay." Bonnie agreed. "We better leave the lights on for Stefan and Caroline." she sighed as they made their way upstairs.
"You do know being vampires, they can see in the dark." Enzo smiled as he followed Bonnie, deciding teasing her might be a fun way to pass the time.
"Shut up!" Bonnie glared at him before turning and walking into her room and closing the door.
