I want to thank everyone who reviewed and all that other good stuff and have been waiting so patiently TY!
FLASHBACK
Damon was helpless, something he hadn't been since he was a little boy. All he could do was stand by and watch Emily Bennett destroy the amulet that would bring his Katherine back to him. The fire engulfed her in its protection, but Damon would not be denied some vengeance. He crossed through the fierce barrier with his vampire speed feeling only a slight sensation from running through it. He grabbed a hold of her, lips smiling as he sunk his savage fangs into the smooth caramel skin of Bonnie's neck.
Emily Bennett would have done anything to not have her great grand-daughter four times removed be in danger like this, but she was desperate. This was the only way. She had run out of options and they still had no clue what they were meant to be.
The pressure was tightening and no matter how hard Bonnie pushed Damon wasn't letting go. Her eyes closed against the pain she didn't want to die. If only she was powerful as Emily she could stop Damon or any other vampire. She had witnessed his anguish she as Emily inflicted by taking away his chance to see Katherine again. Damon was hurting and lashing out no surprise there, it was expected. Bonnie's part in all this was unavoidable by circumstance and she just might pay for it permanently.
"Damon, please?"
He felt her small warm hands hold onto him practically caress him. She was different he knew that the minute he tasted her and because she was a witch. Her magic filled him, intoxicated him to distraction. He wasn't one to give a damn, another thing he hadn't done since he was a little boy. Something was happening to him and he was curious to want to know what the hell was going on with him. He heard her plea the urgency in her whisper to live. He pushed her away making her fall to the ground as he roared into the night. Stefan and Elena rush passed him to help her and he watches as his younger brother gives up his blood for her. He doesn't like it, but his anger has control of him now and he flees to wreak havoc elsewhere.
WEEKS LATER
During the day it was easy to avoid one another like the plague and keep the confusion at bay, but it was at night Bonnie and Damon couldn't fight themselves.
They stood at the scene of the crime over the empty tomb. This time when Damon grabbed her he was gentle and Bonnie didn't even think about resisting. This time his lips kissed hers and his hands trailed caress after caress down her arms to her hips bringing her up against him fully. Their minds argued silently against their hearts and the overpowering desire coursing through them.
Damon couldn't stop touching her and as much as he wanted to show Bonnie exactly what she did for him he wasn't going to short change this experience so he stopped kissing her.
Her breath was all they heard and all Damon could feel against his own lips.
"Bonnie do you want me?" Their eyes met and dual understanding was met.
"More then anything in the world Damon." He smiled making her smile too.
"Trust me ok?" Damon waited on her to give him a sign and wasn't disappointed. Bonnie palmed his face in her warm hands and gently brought it closer to hers. Her red lips touched his eyes, his cheeks then so softly stopped on his nose. He smiled and didn't need her to say the words that she did trust him. Damon turned so she could ride him piggyback style. He took them to his home at a break-neck speed. Neither noticed the night was still and the clearing was quiet as if waiting for something to happen. Above the night sky was lit by a cosmo moon guiding them every step they made.
Inside the boarding house they approached the stairs and Damon once again waited. Bonnie took hold of his hand and led him to his bedroom sealing the trust between them for tonight.
BACK TO THE PRESENT
Bonnie ran her fingers through Damon's dark hair enjoying how he splayed his head on her flat belly. His fingers were drumming lightly letting her know the wheels in his mind were turning.
"I'm sorry."
