~Bonnie~
I woke up in the living room of the boarding with a lot of eyes on me. I blinked feeling awkward like I was the entertainment then sat up. As I did I felt a sharp pain at the back of my head. My eyes teared up from it a little.
"Relax Bonnie you hit your head pretty hard." Meredith said
"I'm about as relaxed as I'm going to get." I replied rubbing my head
It wasn't bleeding anymore but I knew it was by the dried blood stuck through my hair. Then I felt an arm around me. I just leaned into him knowing it was Matt. I felt so tired inside and out.
"Be careful not to fall asleep. You might have a concussion." He said
"I wouldn't worry about it. I wouldn't be able to sleep no matter how hard I would try." I said
He let out a sigh that said he was worried. I couldn't tell him I was fine because I was far from it. Hell I wanted to tell him a lot of thing. But everything I've seen within the last week was worse than everything I'd seen in the last year. The room was beyond silent, it sounded worse than death and it made me cringe and hide. Instead I got up and headed down the hall toward the small library that was hidden further in the house.
"Where are you going?" Matt said as he followed me
"Look something bad and I mean real bad happened out in the cemetery in which I'm sure Damon has informed you all about what happened in his own sarcastic I don't give a damn way. I just thought I'd take a look in the books being Stefan has a collection of really old books that I've noticed to be at least seventy years older than me or more." I said
"Yeah so why don't I help?" He offered
"No." I said
Then I realized I had said it too quickly and turned to face him.
"I just think this is something I should do alone."
"But you don't have to go through this alone Bon. And you need to realize that you're not alone. We're all freaked out." He said cutting me off
"You don't think I don't know that?" I exclaimed "I'm a bit on edge if you haven't noticed. And I'm sorry if there are a few things that I would prefer to do alone because you probably wouldn't even know what to look for. And might I add that I haven't slept in about a week."
He stood there looking stunned. I sighed closing my eyes as I regretted each words I let out. I had no reason to be mad at him. Then I felt him caress my cheek and just leaned into his gentle touch. But the person I pictured in my head as my eyes were still closed wasn't Matt. Even when I felt his lips on mine it wasn't him. It was Damon and the image wouldn't go away no matter how hard I tried. I pulled our lips still mere inches apart just lingering there. That's when I turned away and walked into the small library closing the door behind me. I shouldn't do that to him. It was like cheating on a whole other level or at least that's how it felt. He deserved so much better and I cared about him deeply, hell I loved him but the girl of his dreams wouldn't ever be me no matter how hard I try to be her. I was damned in life. There wouldn't be anyone for me. Let's admit it, I'm no Elena here. Plus the person in which I can't get out of my mind no matter how hard I try to fight it is after someone else aka Elena. Alone is the way it'll be, the way it has to be if I don't want people to look at me like a freak or if I don't want to get someone killed.
I just listened as Matt walked back off toward the living room. Taking a deep breath I turned only to nearly jump out of my skin. Damon was sitting in one of the chairs in the corner looking at me intrigued. But it seemed more than that. It was as if he was taking in every inch of me in the dim lit room.
"Did I scare you?" he asked
I just rolled my eyes and started scowering the bookshelves. I remembered reading something about what I saw. I just had to find the book though.
"Looking for this?"
I turned around to find him inches away from me with only a book between us. I went to grab for it but he just pulled it out of grasp.
"I'm not in the mood for games." I said
"Why not? I know you love them. Just look at what you're doing with Matt." He whispered into my ear "You shouldn't be with him and you know it. It's just pity. And you know who you should belong to."
I shoved him away with one hand and slapped him across the face with the other. I could feel my face flush red in fury. He had no right jumping into my life when he wasn't a part of it.
"How dare you." I snarl
"I can only tell the truth. And the truth is I know who you were really thinking about when you were kissing him." He said acting innocent
I go to slap him again but he catches my wrist and only grins in the triumph of getting me pissed off. Yanking my wrist back I quickly grab the book out of his hand and walk to the other side of the room as I start skimming it. Looking through it, it didn't say anything about the shadow like things. But I froze when I saw the tomb door on one page. This is why it had seemed familiar. I had read this book before a long time ago; I just didn't think anything of it. After reading about it I felt the book fall from my fingers. In the next instant Damon was in front of me.
"What is it? What do you know?" he asked
"I don't know." I said
Because I wasn't sure. And in that instant he went from calm to hostile.
"What is it?" he said taking hold of my shoulders
"I don't know!" I screamed breaking free of his grip
As I did I fell to the floor and landed in a trance. It happened way too easily anymore and it was as if I were losing myself. The more it happened the more darker it got and the farther I fell.
~Damon~
She hit the floor with a thud. Then she went into a trance.
"Bonnie?" I asked
She looked up at me her eyes blank. They almost looked pitch black too. she seemed to be looking at me deeply too deep.
"The last sunrise comes very soon. Welcome to hell."
It wasn't her though. It didn't even sound like her. Then she shook her head and looked around.
"Uhhhh…" she said shaking her heada little confused "What happened?"
"Nothing. You fell like you always do being you're quite the klutz." I lied
She stood and looked me directly in the eyes. But the way she stared was as if she were searching for the real answer. Looking away I shifted awkwardly.
"Why do you care?" she asked out of the blue
"What makes you think I do?" I countered
"You stay with me and don't even attempt to bite me, and then you save my life because I'm pretty sure I would be in a coma if you didn't help me." She retaliated
Ugh I hated it when she did that. She'd call me on a bluff and she was good at it. Better than Elena even. I just shrugged and walked out of the room but not before grabbing her around the waist and kissing her. Her lips were sweet and smooth. Something even more interesting is that she didn't even push me away. Instead she indulged in it and pulled closer. I pulled away as I felt the intensity rise. It wasn't that I wanted to stop because lord knows I didn't. She kissed me as if it were the first and last time she'd get the chance and I loved every part of it. But if she could tease so could I. I could feel the glare burning a hole me but I just relished in the moment.
"See I was right. You were thinking of me. Don't deny it because the harder you fight it the harder it'll get to resist me."
~Bonnie~
When I turned to give him a comeback he was gone along with the fluttering feeling my stomach had.
"As if I didn't have enough problems." I muttered to myself
Then I noticed the open book on the floor that I had dropped and I just stared at it without picking it back up. We weren't getting out of this one and what I had found proved it. What was opened was a door. A door the darkest part of the dark dimension. It made hell look tame. We wouldn't get out of this one no matter how hard we tried. I knew it deep down in my gut and so did Damon. We couldn't run because what unlocked that door was watching us for a reason.
