Chapter 2 – Rules are rules
The private Jet was soaring high in the sky as the thirteen of them made their way back to Bell Air where they all lived in the same neighborhood.
"Have you thought about what you are going to tell Alaric?" Kol asked Lucy, who was now his wife.
"Shit, yes… no… I don't know!" Lucy replied stressed out not knowing how her father was going to take this news.
Kol and Lucy sat on the far end of the plane on the white leather sofa discussing the terms of their marriage.
"Well it certainly looks tense over there." Tyler commented while lounging on the black chair.
Tyler, April, Matt, Rebekah and Damon were sitting together watching some random movie, but they weren't paying attention to the drama on screen they were paying attention to the drama right in front of them happening live.
"Well they did just get drunk married!" April glared at Tyler as if to say, 'have some compassion.'
"I'm going to go and see what Bennett is up to, be back soon chums!" Damon smirked at the little group and gave a sarcastic smile before turning of in the direction of Bonnie.
Bonnie was situated at the front part of the plane giggling with Stefan, Elena Caroline and Klaus.
"Bennett, I'm bored! Everyone is boring!" Damon whined like a little kid to Bonnie and then proceeded to sit on her lap and she held him like she would a toddler, but instead this was her grown up ass of a best friend.
"Aw excuse me guys the baby's crying, do you need me to change your diaper?" Bonnie talked childishly to Damon and he just nodded his head with a pout forming on his perfectly kissable lips.
"Seriously though Bennett, how are you doing in such close proximity to that bastard over there?" Damon asked Bonnie and gestured to Jeremy sitting by the door of the plane on his phone probably messaging a whore he picked up and asking for a booty call when he touched down.
"Hey that's Elena's brother! Don't let her hear you!" Bonnie whispered to Damon as he got of her lap and sat beside her.
"That's also the guy who pissed me off the moment his put his dick in that whore." Damon said loudly enough for everyone in the plane to hear and they all looked at the pair.
"Damon…" Bonnie attempted to say something but Damon was already speaking.
"No! I have tolerated him since you asked me to be play nice but he didn't even give a second thought to you, he just came on YOUR birthday trip and didn't even spend any time in the celebration! Not to mention being disrespectful by sucking face with another girl in front of you!"
Damon ranted on and stood up everyone was now watching and nodding in compliance because it was true, Jeremy had always been a selfish jerk and Bonnie had always let him get away with it.
"Damon look, we just had a fun week and were heading back now so don't ruin it, ok?" Bonnie stood up and placed a hand on Damon's chest, he was fuming and Jeremy had also gotten up and was walking their way but Elena glared daggers and her brother and he whimpered away back to his seat and shoved in some earphones.
Damon sat back down and Bonnie pulled his chin so that she was looking at him square in the eyes.
"Damon, I don't have a problem with Jeremy anymore, I don't care, I honestly don't, I cant help that he did that to me and I wont ever forgive him but we are all adults here so don't act like a child." Bonnie calmly said and put her hand on his shoulder.
Damon sighed. "I know but, what he did to you… I would have killed him that night if you hadn't locked me in my room! I'm not going to lie, I hate him for ever hurting my best friend and I hated seeing you so upset and the way you cried that night, it was heart breaking, and who was your shoulder to cry on? Me! That's who, so I know how he hurt you, and I felt it too." Damon confessed honestly and Bonnie felt her heart stutter because Damon was like her all, he honestly completed her and she loved him and would honestly do ANYTHING for him and she knew that he would do ANYTHING for her, that's why he was acting like a protective older brother.
Bonnie didn't say anything; she just pulled him into her embrace and held him there until they were both satisfied that he had calmed down.
"Thank you, you know that I appreciate every little gesture and I know that you just want to make me feel better, and I know your just what I need at times but right now, I just need for us to be together as friends and have fun, we don't need anyone spoiling that." Bonnie said as calmly as possible and just stared in to Damon's eyes.
Damon sighed and nodded his head.
"Fine, let's get the alcohol flowing!" Damon smirked and wiggled his eyebrows.
"That's more like it brother!" Nick shouted and opened a bottle of Champagne.
"Damon you cannot drink that whole bottle of Bourbon!" Elena exclaimed clearly astonished that Damon was drinking strait out of a bottle of Jack.
"Is that a challenge?" Damon volleyed back to Elena who just rolled her eyes in response.
"Damon gimme some!" Rebekah pulled the bottle out of her brother's hands.
"Slow down little one!" Damon shook his head at Rebekah's greediness, even as a kid she had wanted everything and usually always got it being the only girl amongst six boys, this gave her an advantage, it also made finding a boyfriend that much harder since they all disapproved of her choices.
So when she started to take an interest in Matt Donovan her brothers all approved because they all knew him and Nick, Damon, Stefan and Kol were all close friends with him.
"Damon, I'm not five anymore, I think I can look after myself!" Rebekah shot back, which surprised everyone because she screamed, and the next thing Damon knew she was in tears.
Nick came rushing over to console his little sister and Matt; ever the caring little boyfriend came and wrapped his arms around her shaking body.
"What the hell just happened?" Stefan then took over from Matt who wasn't sure what was happening only that his girlfriend of two months was balling her eyes out like a water fountain.
"I don't know one minute she was fine and the next she was crying!" Damon explained to the little group around him.
"I go to the toilet for a second and all hell breaks loose?" Bonnie asked pushing he way so that she could have a look at Rebekah.
"Bonnie! I want Bonnie!" Rebekah wailed.
Bonnie walked over to Rebekah and held her in her arms tightly.
"What's wrong sweetie?" Bonnie spoke tranquilly as to not spook Rebekah who was clearly hysterical.
"I need some thing… something strong…" Rebekah's lips trembled as she spoke.
"No Rebekah you don't, you need to take big deep breaths and close your eyes." Bonnie said firmly and pushed Rebekah down on the white leather sofa in the plane. It was no secret that Rebekah had a few substance abuse problems but with Bonnie's help she was able to look past that dark period in her life that happened a year ago.
Rebekah lay down and Bonnie signaled for everyone to make themselves scarce so that Rebekah could get settled.
About an hour later the thirteen of then landed at LAX airport and were able to check out and a limo was waiting for them.
Bonnie arrived home with Lucy to find their father, Alaric pacing the living extravagant living room of their mansion.
"Daddy!" Bonnie squealed in delight at seeing her father.
"Bon-Bon! How was your birthday beautiful?" Her father embraced her in a consuming hug that swallowed her whole body.
"It was amazing! Thank you so much daddy!" Bonnie said with a massive grin on her face.
"I'm glad! Maybe next time we can go and I can show you how to actually win big!" Her father smiled.
"I wouldn't say that, she won very big, she's quite the little gambler you know." Lucy said from the doorway.
"No hug for your daddy?" Alaric asked his eldest daughter.
Lucy walked over with a smile on her face to her father and pulled him into a hug.
"Daddy I need to tell you something…" Lucy said pulling out of his embrace.
"Go ahead Luce." Alaric nodded his head forward to motion her to continue.
"The thing is Daddy, I'm married!" Lucy held up her hand where a classy plain gold band was placed on her fourth finger.
"LUCY! Who? Who are you married to?" Alaric questioned trying to keep his temper in check.
"Kol, Kol Mickelson – Salvatore! I'm sorry daddy!" Lucy bent her head in shame but to her surprise her father didn't freak out, just the opposite in fact.
"Congratulations! Wow, now Giuseppe and I are in laws? I always thought it would be Bonnie and Damon to join our family's together but I guess you beat her to it!" Alaric commended his daughter.
"Woah, Woah, Woah! There will be no joining in holy matrimony between Damon and I; he's my best friend! Ew, I would never marry him!" Bonnie crumpled her nose in distaste, the fact that her father ever thought she was going to marry Damon freaking Salvatore was a little of putting and terribly wrong.
"Well are you going to have a big extravagant wedding? And where are you going to live? Is this…" Alaric muttered on, chewing Lucy's ear off in the process whilst Bonnie snuck off to her room to shower and sleep, it was a tiring flight back and she needed the comfort of her bed.
"Vanilla and chocolate chip cookies?" Bonnie asked Damon as they were waiting in line to be served at their favorite bakery.
"Nope, come on, your losing your touch Bennett!" Damon smirked and Bonnie scowled.
Bonnie thought hard and it finally hit her like a ton of bricks. "Ok I have it! Mississippi mud pie?" Bonnie looked up with a lighted smile on her face.
Damon's face remained impassive for a few seconds before he smiled and it reached his eyes.
"You got it! Well done! Finally after like five billion years!" Damon teased Bonnie as they placed their orders and sat at the table next to the window of the bakery.
"Hey! It did not take me that long, it was like two guesses!" Bonnie thew back. They always played this game when they went to the bakery, she had to guess what Damon was ordering and vice versa, although he could read her like a book whilst she couldn't tell what kind of dessert based mood he was in.
The waitress placed down their orders and they dug in.
"Yum! Mine is so good, here." Damon placed his mud pie in Bonnie's mouth and she savored the taste as it melted on her tongue.
"That is good! Try mine." Bonnie cut of a piece of her red velvet whoopie pie and placed it in Damon's mouth.
"Ooh yeah that is good, I'm going to order this from now on." Damon exclaimed.
"No you're not." Bonnie told Damon as she placed another piece of her whoopie pie in Damon's mouth.
"Why not?" Damon asked the beautiful brunette opposite him.
"Because then I cant have any of your mud pie." Bonnie bounced back at Damon and he nodded in agreement.
"You make a good point." Damon said whilst he slid his fork into Bonnie's whoopie pie. "Hide me, oh shit, hide me Bennett!" Damon exclaimed with urgency.
"What why?" Bonnie asked wondering whom he was hiding from.
"Because my last night is here, you know I don't do back-"
"Back to backs, yes I know but isn't that the same as the no more than once a week rule?" Bonnie asked as she extended her neck so that she fully covered an unseen Damon.
"No, the once a week rule works Monday to Friday…" Damon said in a hushed tone.
"Oh, so, theoretically, you could have a date on Sunday night and then Monday without breaking it." Bonnie worked out.
"Exactly, you got it." Damon replied.
"Ok, she's gone." Bonnie looked around and signaled that the coast was clear.
The two of them finished their food and went to meet up with Stefan, April and Tyler.
"And then Tyler got lost in the Library!" April laughed while telling the story of how Tyler and April managed to get caught having sex in the library storeroom.
Tyler had been seeing April since their freshmen year in high school and they were still going strong.
Stefan got up to get a round of drinks in and Bonnie went to help him carry them.
"So what did you and Jules do today?" Bonnie said with a sly smile.
"What do you mean? We hung out! That's it!" Stefan claimed and paid the bartender.
"What ever you say Stef! Any way I thought you liked her?" Bonnie asked innocently.
"Well I like someone else…" Stefan said hoping Bonnie got the message.
"Oh my God! Is it Elena? How cute would you two be! I mean we've all been friends since forever but you never know what could happen!" Bonnie grinned, she loved Stefan like he was her brother and Elena being one of her best girl friends, one could only hope these two brooding, lonely people could find solace in each other.
"No, no it's not Elena. I don't think you know her…" Stefan lied because the girl he liked and Bonnie was one in the same person.
"Oh, well I look forward to meeting her once you grow some balls and ask her out!" Bonnie joked and Stefan huffed because she was so oblivious to his feelings and advances towards her.
Bonnie and Stefan sat back down and the group finished up their drinks before saying goodnight and parting their separate ways.
"Kol told me him and Lucy are house hunting tomorrow and asked if we want to come with them, you up for it?" Damon asked Bonnie who was sitting in the passenger's seat of his black Cadillac CTS.
"Why not, Sage told me that I'm not needed tomorrow at the surgery so I guess I'm free." Bonnie told Damon, Bonnie was in University studying to become a plastic surgeon, she was also currently working in a private practice along side some of the most revered plastic surgeons in the world.
"Well ten more years and you will become a fully fledged plastic surgeon." Damon was right, It takes normally ten to fifteen years to be come a professional plastic surgeon and Bonnie wasn't looking forward to the exams.
"Hmm." Bonnie replied clearly occupied by something else.
"What's wrong with you?" Damon asked Bonnie who was so quiet that it almost unnerved him.
"Nothing, nothing's wrong…" Bonnie told Damon who was clearly not buying it.
Damon parked outside his house and turned to Bonnie.
"Bonnieee… oh Bonnieee…" Damon whined in a coaxing tone.
"What Damon?" Bonnie looked round to face him. "No! Oh no! Damon, I see that look in your eyes, and that's the same look you get before you manage to get us in trouble with either the law, paparazzi or our parents."
"Come on please Bonnie! Just hear me out!" Damon pleaded and Bonnie sighed.
"What?" Bonnie asked frustrated.
"Since you're clearly PMSing, I say we go to the mini golf course by the old country club, come on, its 10pm on a Monday evening and Bel Air is screaming for us to do something juvenile!" Damon begged and for a moment Bonnie almost seemed sold on the idea before she got out of his car and made her way over to her parked car that was currently occupying a space in front of the beautifully massive Salvatore Mansion.
Damon soon followed and grabbed her hand in a lame attempt to stop her.
"Why not?" Damon demanded.
"I'm sure it seemed like a good idea in your four year old brain, but I'm tired Damon, I want to go home." Bonnie moved out of his grip and opened her white Porsche Cayenne Hybrid, which was a present from her dad for her twenty first birthday.
"Who upset you? Hey tell me, I will punch his face in and you won't have to be sad anymore." Damon touched Bonnie's chocolate smooth brown hair and smirked.
"That's just it Damon, there is nobody for you to punch because I have nobody!" Bonnie said in pain.
"Oh Bonnie, come here, you have me!" Damon pulled Bonnie to his chest and held her securely in place, Bonnie wasn't crying, she wasn't much of a crier but Damon knew that she was hurt.
"I want somebody like how Tyler has April or how Posh has Beck's!" Bonnie murmured against Damon's hard, broad chest.
"Bonnie, your twenty one! Give it time, the right guy will be around the corner! Or you can just be like me; I have a different girl in my bed every night and its great!" Damon sounded so pleased with himself like being a hoe was something to be proud of.
Bonnie pushed Damon away and scoffed before getting in her car.
Bonnie rolled down her window and Damon leaned in.
"I'm driving tomorrow, so I will swing by at 10am sharp, be ready!" Bonnie warned Damon before he pecked her on her cheek and she drove away.
Damon felt horrible, he hated seeing Bonnie so broken, but he couldn't do anything, she had to find a guy she liked and he wouldn't know where to start because Bonnie didn't really have a 'type'.
Damon walked up to the big white double front doors and entered his extravagant mansion.
"Damon! In here now!" Giuseppe Salvatore yelled through the extensive bright white halls.
Damon hung his head and dragged his feet over to his father's office past the ballroom and the kitchen.
"You summoned me master." Damon sarcastically said.
"Damn right I did boy! What is this?" Giuseppe shouted holding up a newspaper with Damon's drunken face plastered all across it.
"I know your getting old, old man but surely you're not at the Alzheimer's stage yet." Damon sassed and sat down on one of his fathers black leather chairs opposite his desk.
Giuseppe let out a growl and slammed the newspaper on to the desk.
"This was the last straw my boy, you are giving this family a bad name!"
"And you're not? Last time I checked drug trafficking was illegal, not to mention being one of the biggest mob bosses America has ever seen!" Damon shouted back, he wasn't in the mood for this shit, his father was constantly on his ass about how to behave and he was beginning to reach boiling point.
"I do what needs to be done son! For our Family and for all this shit you have, it's because of me! It's not like I don't do my bit for society; I donate millions to charity and help out volunteering. We have a family business that we are known for, that is why we are invited to such high end events and that is why you get all the privileges, but you abuse them!" Giuseppe spoke up.
"But the car business is only a front for the shit you do behind closed doors!" Damon argued; his father was the equivalent to the Bernie Ecclestone of the prestigious luxury Automobiles Company and their family was constantly in the public eye.
"Look Damon, I warned you, I never have this problem with your brothers or even your druggie sister, you on the other hand are unpredictable and unreliable and until you learn how to behave, your cut off, so go and find a fucking job!" Giuseppe didn't even spare his son a look, he just returned back to typing away on his computer.
Damon turned on his heels and ran up the large staircase to his wing of the house.
Opening the door, Damon stepped inside of what only could be described as his own private house in his house! It was fucking ludicrous!
Damon had a very large wooden framed bed, his own spa ensuite, and his balcony that overlooked the fabulous green grounds and extensive swimming pool of the garden. On his right Damon walked through the secluded door that was further away from everything else that was placed in his room and stood in his own personal kitchen, fully stocked with a load of junk.
After putting the packet of cheetos back in the cupboard Damon stalked out of his kitchen and walked the long way across his bedroom to where his walk in wardrobe was.
Kicking of his boots and shedding his clothes Damon got under the warm spray of the water and unwound from a hard day of procrastinating.
Leave me a review and let me know what you thought!
