Chapter 13
Meanwhile
Kai listened to Bonnie's message. He was there when she called but he didn't answer. It was hurting him to do so but he didn't have a choice. Hearing what she said didn't help either. He went to erase the message but he stopped his hand. He couldn't. He wanted to hold her in his arms and tell her everything was alright but that wasn't possible. He went in his kitchen and took a bottle. He poured himself a glass.
The next day
He went home after taking some fresh air outside. He stopped when he saw Bonnie was there.
Bonnie : Hey.
Kai : You shouldn't be here.
Bonnie : And what are you going to do about that ?
He turned around to leave. She locked the door magically.
Kai : You know I can easily undo that.
Bonnie : I hope you won't. Please talk to me.
Kai : he turned to look at her I'm not the right guy for you.
Bonnie : You didn't even let me decide what I wanted.
Kai : I can't do this.
Bonnie : So what ? Did you break up with me without telling me ?
He stayed silent.
Bonnie : You did.
Kai : I'd understand if you want to leave now.
Bonnie : That would be too easy. I don't even have good reasons.
Kai : You don't understand.
Bonnie : Then help me understand !
Kai : I don't want to hurt you.
Bonnie : Because ignoring me for days doesn't ?
Kai : Sorry, I just...
She crossed her arms on her chest.
Kai : he started to pace I had this awful dream when I was strangling you.
She suddenly understood Damon and Elena's relationship a lot better. Dating a potentially dangerous man and knowing it but your feelings are stronger. He was still pacing.
Bonnie : she grabbed his arm It was just a dream.
Kai : It felt so real.
Bonnie : I used to make dreams that were visions and I even sleep walked but I don't think this one was real.
Kai : Once you said the old me was still inside and...
Bonnie : And I was wrong.
Kai : No, what if you were right after all ?
Bonnie : Well, you're not strangling me.
Kai : I could.
Bonnie : I'm waiting.
Kai : N-No I can't.
Bonnie : See ?
Kai : Gosh I missed you so much.
Bonnie : Me too.
They kissed.
Bonnie : she pulled away I'm starving. Why don't we go grab a bite ?
Kai : he brushed her lips with his Or we could skip to dessert.
Bonnie : I'd love to but I need food.
Kai : If you're insisting he grabbed her hand and undid the spell that was holding the door
They left the building. They didn't know Cassandra was observing them from afar. She glared at Bonnie. The witch was still there. Change of plan.
The next day
Bonnie was on a bench reading her notes for her next class. A shadow hid the sun and she looked up.
Cassandra : I'd say it's a pleasure to meet you but that would be a lie.
Bonnie : You must be Cassandra.
Cassandra : Yup.
Bonnie : she closed her book and got up Stay away from Kai she walked away
Cassandra : As if I'm going to listen.
Bonnie felt a surge of energy and fainted.
