He wasn't cruel or teasing. He was more than likely every girls dream because it was just who he was. He was the good side of life just like Damon was the bad side. I laid there with Matt holding me as I drifted in and out of sleep. He fell asleep as well. I loved listening to his heart beat it reminded me of a hummingbird.
When I woke up it was around noon. Matt was still asleep and he had his arms around me so that it was nearly impossible to get loose. But slowly and surely I got up and he just turned over. I could smell something sweet coming from the kitchen. When I walked in I saw Damon cooking and just cked my head to the side.
"What?" he basically hissed
"You're cranky."
"Am not." He started to argue
"I'm not arguing with you on whether you're cranky or not and since when do you cook?" I asked
"Well there are three humans here-"
He was cut off by hearing the front door open then close.
"Make that four who are probably hungry or will be if they're not already awake." He said
Then he set a few plates out with food on it. I took one and slid it towards myself. It all looked delectable that I didn't know where to start. I just started shoving multiple things into my mouth at once. I couldn't decide which to try first so I tried everything first. Damon just chuckled a little. Meredith walked in and I just waved instead of spitting food all over her.
"Wow Damon you cooked. How human." She said plopping down beside me and grabbing a plate
He just glared at her. He hated it when she would do that when he did small things. But she was right. He was a vampire and doing this was abnormally human. But she didn't complain about the food. As I finished up he pulled my plate away and started cleaning up the kitchen. Meredith and I just looked at each other with eyebrows raised surprised. It made me wonder what exactly he was trying to prove because this wasn't his normal routine. His normal routine consisted of going out and seducing girls and after he was done with them he'd compel them then come around here and if we were here he'd argue with us like it was his version of entertainment. But he was quiet for the most time. What I did was probably real stupid but I did it anyways. I looked into his mind wondering if it was still blocked of and realized that door was unlocked. Though I was a little scared to open the door I did and noticed it was simple thoughts of curiosity. Like what did I see last night? Along with his normal irritations of Matt. The next thought though hit me like a grenade.
I don't get why she is so attracted to him. He's such a goody. Not every girl likes that and I of all people know that she isn't entirely into that kind. Was it a comfort thing? I could've comforted her .Why am I even thinking about this? It's idiotic to think you have any remote feeling towards the little thing. It's not like she'll even think of you as anything more than a pain in the ass. But hey it's something you're good at. You've tried the whole love thing once before and you saw how well that went.
Then as if one of us said something he turned and looked at us curiously. I just looked away quickly before he could look at me accusingly being it was something he did best. Then I just scratched the back of my neck and walked out of the kitchen not looking back at him. I could feel him looking at me.
~Damon~
Ok so I was a little late on catching on to the fact that there was someone else listening into my thoughts. I looked back at the two girls even though I already knew who it was. When I looked at both of them Meredith looked at little oblivious while Bonnie turned the light shade of cherry. She just put on that I'm innocent look she does so well. It was pretty hard not to smile at it because I thought it was adorable. That and I knew first how not so innocent she was or could be if circumstances came to it. It seemed the more I thought about it the more I realized that I knew the little witch more than just about anything. I'm sure if Mutt was asked what scared her most he'd say the dark but I know best. She's terrified of being second best to anyone and feels deep down that's all she'll ever be. She's also afraid of never knowing what it feels like to be loved and not in the friend way. Then again all I can say to that is join the club.
Bonnie just scratched the back of her neck not looking at me. Then she walked back into the living room. Mutt had woke up and I could hear them talking. Meredith and I just sat there in silence as she kept eating. She never had anything nice to say then again neither did I. I turned my head and looked out the kitchen window. Next thing I know I see something in resemblance to a shadow walk across in front of the window. I could hear Meredith's heart speed up.
"Tell me I'm not the only one saw that." She said her voice a little shaky
"I think you should go into the living room with Bonnie and Mutt." I said sternly
She just nodded and rushed out not looking back. I don't know what either of us saw but it didn't look good. We were all seeing things. Whether it be creepy shadows that scare you in the dark or dead people that are like hallucinations. For example not long ago I had an encounter with Vicki and so did Stefan. Elena had seen Katherine at one point. But I don't know about the others. It's strange though because they'll pop in then out and they're harmless.
"What's going on?" Stefan said walking in breaking my train of thought
"The usual creeps stalking us." I said
"You saw something again?"
"Oh not just me Meredith saw it too." I said
I rolled my eyes and left the kitchen as he started on the whole speech again of protecting the others and are sure you saw what you saw. It's rather annoying but I don't think he got the point even when I told him he was getting on my nerves.

When I walked back into the living room Matt was sitting up and rubbing his eyes.
"You're awake." I commented as I sat beside him
"How'd you sleep?" he asked
"Eh I still feel like I haven't slept. But Damon's breakfast helped a lot." I answered
At the mention of him I could tell he wasn't happy. I made me wonder if I had missed something. Of course I always miss something.
"Bonnie I'm confused." He said
"About?"
"Why…" but he didn't finish
He thought I was toying with him and that I was stuck between him and Damon. I wasn't Elena here. Plus if Damon wanted any part of me he has a few standards to meet.
I put my hand to his cheek and turned his face to me. With that I kissed him softly letting him know he had me even if I was unsure. I wanted my chance with him even if wouldn't be that long but who knew how far ahead that future was. I felt his lips move against mine as his tongue moved with mine like it was more of an exploration of each other.
"Well I didn't expect this."
We both pulled away quickly looking up at Meredith who was standing in the doorway. Then we saw Elena coming downstairs with Stefan not far behind. He went into the kitchen while Elena joined us in the living room. She sat in between Matt and I which felt really awkward. When I looked back Meredith she seemed a little shaken.
"Mer are you okay?" I asked
"Uh yeah I'm fine."
I knew she was lying. But the look on her face changed when she looked at Matt who was red in the face. Did I do that or was it Elena? Am I his second?
