Thank you so much for the comments, reviews and favorites. I really appreciate it. So, I think I know where I'm going with this story now. But, it will be a slow build up…because Damon won't just turn off his feelings for Elena and Bonnie really can't just accept Damon's "adoration". Eventually, Elena will be addressed and I still haven't decided if I'll do something with Stefan. But, I hope you enjoy the next chapter in the saga that is Damon and Bonnie.
Chapter 3
Damon strolled into the living room to pour himself a drink. He had a slight spring in his step despite the events of the other night. As he swirled the glass of blood, he couldn't help but think of Elena. After all I've done for her, how could there still be a decision to be made? It was obvious to him that although Stefan loved her, he needed her. He had hoped things would be different with Elena. He didn't relish spending eternity fighting with Stefan over Elena.
With a slight shake of the head, he tried to rid himself of these depressing thoughts. Besides, he had more pressing matters to attend to. Bonnie Bennett, he thought with a gleeful smirk. The look on her face the other night was enough to make him crack a smile. Technically, he had only been joking with her.He didn't actually mean that he would focus all of his attention on her. He wanted a much more receptive person. One that could actually appreciate all that he brought to the world. But, he thought with delight, the look on her face was so...priceless. To say she was shocked would be an understatement. I really can't pass up such a great opportunity. How much fun would it be to harass the young witch? To have her actually believe that she is my new obsession.
Where would I even start? Damon decided he needed to write a list. Finding a pen and some paper, he plopped on the couch to do just that. Oh, this was going to be so much fun.
"Focus on Bonnie"
Popping up in unexpected places.
Be utterly charming and seductive.
Get invited into her house.
Make her spend some "alone time" with him.
Get her to fall in love with him.
He knew the last one was a bit of a stretch. But, how great would it be if she fell in love with him? Imagine what I could get away with. Maybe I can even have two girls fight over me. He wickedly smiled as he pictured Elena and Bonnie fighting over him.
It was that cheshire grin on his face that made Stefan wince as he walked into the room. Damon was definitely up to something and that never boded well for others.
Damon looked up slightly to acknowledge his younger brother's entrance into the living room, but he quickly returned to other wicked thoughts.
"Damon." Stefan began as he looked at his brother carefully. "You look…busy. What are you up to?"
"Dear brother. What makes you think I'm up to something?"
"Because you're always up to something. I know we were both crushed by Elena's decision, but she has the right to do what she thinks is best for her. We can't punish her for that."
"Well, thank you for talking me down. I now see that I don't need a plan of revenge. I guess I'll just move on to stamp collecting. I'm so glad we had this talk. Now, if you'll excuse me," Damon replied, standing up from the couch.
"Damon. We're brothers. We should be there for each other."
"I get it. Heart to heart talk. You'll brood; I'll smirk. We'll make a 'no girl can come between us' pact and be best friends forever. Did I leave anything out?"
"Fine. Don't talk to me then. But, I'm here for you."
"Understood, McBroody," Damon saluted Stefan as he casually strolled away from him. "By the way, would you happen to know where Bonnie is right now?"
At Stefan's perplexed look, Damon remarked, "Guess not."
Stefan could only stare at his brother as he exited the room. He was definitely up to something. And for some reason, he was involving Bonnie. This would not end well.
