Chapter 11: Secrets

Kiss your lips under the sky
That should be you and I,
Two people with nothing to hide
Baby, wouldn't that be nice?
Take me to church, or take me home
I wanna be close, but with the lights turned on
Cause all of the feelings, and all of our lies, are killing me
Cause I'm into you
All of my secrets turn me on, cause nobody knows
My guilty conscience has gone rogue, and it's left me alone with
All of my secrets
All of my secrets, yeah
All of my secrets
All of my secrets
Take me to a crowded room
And put your hands under my dress,
Let everyone see the truth
So nobody has to guess

- Kat Graham


Bonnie

I took a sip of coffee while I sat in the office and wondered what today would bring. I'd missed being close to Enzo these past couple of weeks. It had to be done for my own peace of mind, as much as I hated it. I could see he was waiting for a signal from me to move forward and the minute I gave that signal he'd be on me like a starving tiger without hesitation.

My life really revolved around work. I would have a very brief conversation with Matt over a bowl of cereal in the morning, spend the day in the office, working late, head home only to eat alone and then climb into bed and cry myself to sleep. Matt would climb into bed around midnight. The following day, I'd do the same all over again.

Why was I still with Matt? Well, apart from the fact that I had nowhere else to go, I would also feel bad ending our relationship. He told me he loved me every night without fail when he crawled into bed, thinking I was asleep, but the sound of the doors opening and closing always woke me up. It was hard to do and I didn't have the courage yet, no matter how badly I wanted to be with Enzo.

I didn't believe Matt anymore. Some nights he would come in smelling of perfume that wasn't mine.

I'd finally managed to find an apartment to view in a nice neighborhood, and the lady who I'd spoken to had said she would allow me to pay the rent once I'd been paid. All I had to do was come up with the deposit if I wanted the apartment. I'd sagged in relief when she'd said that and made an appointment to view the apartment on Sunday, the day after the picnic.

I couldn't wait until Monday, so I could tell Enzo that I had an apartment. A small part of me was hoping he would offer to help me move. I glanced at my watch again and wondered where he was. It was just past eight o'clock and Enzo was usually at his desk. It was odd, he usually arrived at seven.

As eight thirty came and went I started getting really worried. It was ten minutes to nine and he still hadn't arrived.

When my cell started to ring, I reached for it and with a quick glance at the screen it told me Enzo was calling. The sight of his name made my body sag in relief.

"Enzo, I was really worried. Are you okay?" I asked in a rush.

"Bonnie."

My heart sank. Something was wrong. I could hear it in his voice. "Enzo, what's wrong? Where are you?"

"I'm okay," he paused. "An SUV crashed into the car on the way to the office."

"Oh god, Enzo!" My voice quivered and tears started to fall down my face. I felt sick to my stomach.

"Shit Bonnie, please don't cry. I'm really okay. Apart from a couple of stitches on my forehead, I'm fine, but Alaric had a heart attack," he sighed. "It was only mild, so he's going to be okay, thank god."

I was sobbing uncontrollably. "Where are you? I need to see you."

After Enzo gave me the name of the hospital, we ended the call and I broke down into a flood of tears. The thought that Enzo could have been seriously injured terrified the life out of me.

"Bonnie, whatever is the matter?" John Gilbert asked, coming around my desk and put his arm around me.

I gulped some air into my lungs and managed to calm myself down. John passed me some tissues and I wiped my tear-stained face. "Enzo was in a car accident. I don't really know what happened, but he said an SUV crashed into them and Ric apparently had a heart attack. I don't know whether that was why the accident happened, or whether it was the shock of the accident that caused it. I need to get to Enzo." I jumped up from my seat and quickly grabbed my jacket and my purse. "He said he was okay and that he had a couple of stitches in his forehead, but I still need to go."

John just looked at me for a minute. "He's more than a boss to you, isn't he, Bonnie?"

I looked him straight in the eye. "Yes," I whispered.

"Come on. I'll get Rayna to cover the phones in here," he said with a huge grin on his face. "Rayna will be pissed that she has to do some work for a change instead of gossiping all day."

John led me from the office and accompanied me in the elevator to the ground floor. He managed to grab someone from security to drive me to the hospital. I think I surprised the hell out of John, when I reached up and kissed his cheek, whispering a 'thank you'. He was an incredibly sweet and thoughtful man.

On the way to the hospital I had all sorts of scenarios running through my mind, worrying constantly about the condition Enzo was in. The thought of arriving at the hospital to find Enzo unconscious in bed with wires sticking out of him had me in hysterics all over again. I was an idiot. I knew that didn't happen for a few stitches in the forehead, but I hadn't seen him yet and my imagination was running a little wild. I was stressed, to say the least.

As soon as the security guard pulled up outside the hospital, I was out of the car running towards the entrance and through the doors to the reception desk. "Excuse me, can you help me?" I asked a lady who looked as though she had swallowed a whole lemon.

"I suppose so." She was cheerful.

"Can you tell me where I can find Enzo St. John?"

"Are you a relative?" she asked me with a sneer.

I was about to reply in the negative when a hand landed across my shoulder. It was Stefan. "She's his fiancée and I'm his brother, so please can you tell me where to find him? Or do I need to ring Klaus Mikaelson, your administrator? He's a good friend of mine."

Flustered, she pressed some keys on her keyboard and pointed us in the correct direction.

"Bonnie, I've spoken to Enzo. He said he was okay except for some stitches. You look really distressed," Stefan said with concern.

"Stefan, I just need to see him, okay?"

He kept his arm around me and pulled me in the direction the receptionist had pointed out.

"He's picked right this time around. I like you Bonnie. Hopefully one day you'll be part of the family soon. But you have to promise me you won't tell Enzo what I just said, unless you want him to beat me up."

I smiled at him. "I won't. Thank you for the rescue back there. She was actually about to see my temper."

"So I guess I actually saved her from you then?"

We rounded a corner and found Enzo sitting on a chair in the corridor with his head in his hands. I started to walk towards him with more speed. "Enzo."

His head shot up. He blinked and then stood up and walked towards me. "Bonnie," he said just as I threw myself into his arms and started to sob my heart out, overwhelmed with relief that he was all right.

"Um, I think you might want to step in here," Stefan said, ushering us into an empty room.

I wasn't really aware of anything else other than being wrapped tight in Enzo's arms. I heard a door shut and a lock engage.

"Bonnie," Enzo said in a broken voice. "I really am okay love. Look at me."

He pushed me away from him slightly. I lifted my hand and caressed his cheek. "I had to see you for myself."

"Other than my family, no one has ever cared about me. You bring me to my knees, Bonnie."

I looked at him. All his desire for me was there for me to see and dared I hope that love was mixed in. "Kiss me, Enzo."

He groaned. He reached for me at the same time I reached for him. My purse dropped to the floor and he pushed my jacket down my arms.

Our mouths locked, our tongues fused together and I never wanted to come up for air. I was wrapped so tight in Enzo's arms while he devoured my mouth. My sex pulsed between my legs. I moved even closer to him and felt his arousal, hard and solid against my stomach. I rubbed against him. He groaned and moved his hands from my waist to my ass then pressed me into him. It was then my turn to moan.

"God Bonnie, make me stop." He started to kiss down my neck to my collarbone.

I took hold of his head and met his eyes. "No."

I slammed my lips to his this time and sucked his tongue into my mouth as he grabbed hold of my skirt and lifted it over my hips. He moved his hands to my ass and lifted me up. I wrapped my legs around his waist and started to rub my sex along the length of him.

He turned and my back hit the wall as he continued to ravish my mouth. My nipples pebbled beneath my bra, my stomach quivered with need and my thong was soaked. Nothing ever felt so good.

Our breathing was erratic and my orgasm was just out of reach. The lips of my pussy opened while I continued to rub against his hard erection and he pulsed in just the right place.

I'd waited two weeks to be in his arms again, but we had too many clothes on.


Enzo

Damn, Bonnie felt hot and amazing in my arms, the place where I never wanted her to leave. I had my tongue fused with hers, my hands on her delectable ass and my cock rubbing between her legs. What more could I want?

I pulled my mouth from hers and gulped some air into my lungs. "Bonnie, I want you but not –" Bonnie interrupted me when she locked her mouth on mine again.

"Take me, quick," she begged in a whisper.

Fuck.

All reason completely vanished. I moved my lips down to her collarbone again and looked up to see her passion for me flood her eyes. I kept one hand on her bottom and moved the other to cup her breast. Her nipple was hard as I rubbed it between my thumb and finger. She moaned and arched her body against me. Fuck this.

In a frenzied move, I had my cock out, her thong ripped and then I thrust into her sex – we both froze. God, she surrounded me with her warmth. She was so fuckin' tight. I thought I would lose it before I even moved.

She ran her hands through my hair. "Enzo, please."

"Oh god."

I had both hands on her bottom. I lifted her up and then impaled her back on my cock. My legs nearly buckled with pleasure.

"Oh my god! Don't stop, Enzo. I'm so close."

Stop? No fuckin' way.

I hitched her further up in my arms and pressed her hard against the wall with my chest as I started to pump in and out of her.

She was so wet and had me so excited the minute I came, I would probably end up a heap on the floor.

Our lips sealed together again. I imitated with my tongue what my cock was doing. She then broke from the kiss and started panting at the same time as her sex started to contract around me. I thrust two more times inside her when all my blood rushed to the tip of my cock, my balls pulled up and I came inside her.

Christ! My orgasm went on and on while my cream covered her walls, and it suddenly hit me – I hadn't used a condom. Shit.

She was limp as she held onto me. I staggered backwards and when my ass came into contact with what felt like a table, I turned and placed her on it.

I breathed heavily and slowly pulled out of her, my cock soaked in our joint juices. I looked around and found some paper towels, which I ran under the tap and then cleaned myself and zipped my trousers. I turned back to Bonnie, who looked very uncertain. I soaked some more paper towels and walked back to her, placing a gentle kiss on her lips before I crouched down and opened her thighs.

I groaned. This was not a very good idea. My cock was on the rise again while I breathed in her scent and put my hand on her pussy to clean her up.

I took a deep breath. "Bonnie, we didn't use a condom. Well, I didn't. I'm sorry. I've never done that before. It wasn't until I came inside you that I realized what I'd forgotten." I sighed. "I'm clean, though. I haven't had sex in over two years." Hell, I was not going to blush.

"When I used to have sex with Matt, he wore a condom and I was on the pill, but I'm not anymore."

"Don't worry, I have no intention of letting you go. We're in this together."

She smiled at me and my heart started to pound again. What the hell was it with this woman?

I helped Bonnie from the table and bent down to retrieve her purse and coat. I turned to look at her and ended up dropping them back to the floor. She was standing with her skirt around her waist, showing her naked ass while she grabbed hold of the ripped thong and pulled it down her thighs.

She saw me watching her. "It was annoying me."

I was speechless. My cock throbbed and so did my head. While I'd ravished Bonnie, I'd forgotten all about the accident and the fact that I had stitches. The doctor tried to tell me I had a concussion and recommended I spend the night in hospital. Like hell.

Bonnie looked neat as a pin, but I knew she had nothing on under her skirt. She was going to have to go home and change or call in at a store before she headed back to the office. There was no way in hell I would be able to keep my hands off her knowing she was panty-less underneath her clothes.

Since meeting Bonnie, I couldn't stop fantasizing about having her in my office. She wasn't wearing any panties and I'd push her face first over my desk, lift her skirt and fuck her from behind. Nice fantasy.

She walked over to me and brought us chest to chest. She looked up at me smiling and reached around my waist with one of her arms to hold me tight. With her other hand resting on my chest she let out a sigh, then I wrapped my arms around her with my chin resting on top of her head.

"I'm looking at an apartment on Sunday."

I pushed her away from me and held her shoulders. "You are? That's the best news I've heard in awhile."

She looked hesitant.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"Um, I was wondering whether…. I mean, if you're not doing anything…."

I couldn't hold back my grin. "Are you trying to ask me to come and look at this apartment with you?"

"Yeah."

I kissed her lips. "I'd love to."

She lifted her hands up to my face in a caress and smoothed her hands gently around my stitches. "It really frightened me, Enzo, when you rang saying you were in an accident." Her eyes started to fill up with tears again.

"Bonnie, I think I've just proved to you that I'm fine." She blushed. "But I think you need to replace something before we get back to the office, otherwise I won't be able to stop myself from lifting your skirt and impaling you on my cock again."

She moaned. "That was cruel, now I'm wet again."

Someone banged on the door, ending our moment.

"Enzo, you need to get out here quick. Mom and Dad are here."

Hell. I was hard as hell and my mother would take one look at Bonnie and know exactly what we just did.

Oh what the hell. She's my woman so it didn't matter. I took hold of Bonnie's hand, unlocked the door and pulled her through with me just in time to watch my parents walk around the corner.

As soon as my mother saw me, she started crying and wrapped me in a hug. "Oh Lorenzo. I was so worried when Stefan called. Are you really alright?" she asked as she started to pat me down.

"Mom, I was all right the minute Bonnie got here." I pulled Bonnie back into my arms as she snuggled into my chest, pulling me closer to her. For once it felt amazing, to finally have someone who cared about me and not my money.

I glanced at my parents who were watching us. My mother still had tears in her eyes, but she was grinning.

"When you're done with all this mushy stuff, do you think we can get a move on?" Stefan said as he rolled his eyes.

"Let me just check on Alaric and make sure they have my contact details."

"I already have. He's going to be okay, but some things will probably have to change. No one can see him for twenty-four hours. They have your details and mine, so let's go."

I took hold of Bonnie's hand as we walked out of the hospital to Stefan's SUV. I opened the door for her and put my hands to her ass, gave her a shove inside, remembering she needed panties – and damn quick. "Stefan, can we swing by Bonnie's place on the way back to the office?" I asked and dared not look at Bonnie.

"Do I want to know why?"

"No."

I sat back into the seat and pulled Bonnie against me. All I had to do was convince Bonnie that she didn't need an apartment. She could move in with me.
