The Price of Fame
A/N: Sorry for the late update guys! We were both busy, but now we're back on track. Lily and I wrote this one together.
Chapter 5- New Friends
"Jeremy, I want to leave," Bonnie exclaimed, shoving her shades onto her eyes and stomping over to Elena's little brother.
Jeremy got up, looking surprised at her tone. "Elena, could you please take her home?" He asked.
Elena scowled, looking less than pleased. She shot her brother a cold look. "No way, I'm not taking that stuck up bitch home," She muttered, folding her arms across her sweater.
Bonnie gasped, "Oh no, you didn't," She looked furious, and Jeremy stepped back looking scared.
"Well I did," Elena shot back, standing up to face her.
Damon stood up and shot between Elena and Bonnie. "Girls, come on. I'll take Bonnie home," He insisted, shooting Bonnie a slight smile.
She looked away, "Whatever Darren. Take me home. And I mean, now," Bonnie called out, pouting.
"It's Damon. See I told you she was an obnoxious egomaniac," Elena murmured, hurrying back to her seat next to her boyfriend, Stefan.
Damon chuckled, and didn't say anything. He put his arm gently around Bonnie's waist and she pushed away.
"I don't know what either of those words mean, so I'm just going to glare at you and pretend I do," Bonnie exclaimed, narrowing her green eyes into slits.
Elena laughed, but not in a nice way. "Awesome. So she's not only a snob, she's a dumb blonde," She retorted.
"FYI I'm not blonde. Blonde is so last year," Bonnie murmured.
"Well tell that to Caroline, whose heading over here," Elena exclaimed, looking like she was enjoying herself.
"Bonnie, hey, I lost you. I was just walking with you and you like disappeared, dude." Caroline burst out. She was dressed in her cheer uniform and was flanked on either side by her cronies.
"Oh hi Caroline. I just got caught up with some losers," Bonnie added a gesture in Elena's direction and Caroline giggled.
"I totally agree. God, I was friends with Elena Gilbert last year and she's a major social bummer. I went from the hottest queen of the school, to the prettiest queen of the school," Caroline burst out, filing her nails. Her posse laughed, just as Caroline had expected them to.
"I'm standing right here," Elena burst out, annoyed.
"Oops. Sorry, I didn't see you. Lookie here, she's invisible," Caroline cried, laughing again.
Bonnie couldn't help but laugh along. She liked this girl.
"Very funny," Elena muttered, grabbing Stefan's hand and dragging him away.
Bonnie just rolled her eyes and Damon said, "Do you still need me to take you home?"
"Oh Em Gee. If he means in that stinking Toyota of his, say no. You can come with me in my pink BMW z4," Caroline exclaimed.
"z4?" Bonnie asked, unable to believe her eyes.
"Well totally. What did you think I'd have? X5?" Caroline laughed as if she'd made the funniest joke on the planet. Her group laughed too.
Damon just glared at her, "See you later, Bonnie," He muttered, icily.
Bonnie didn't even look his way, "So where are you guys headed?" She asked Caroline.
"Er, Well, the mall first for makeovers. Then to Matt's party," She exclaimed.
"Whose Matt?" Bonnie asked, as she started walking out with Caroline.
"Er-." One other girl started to talk, but Caroline put her hand up.
"He's my future boyfriend. Hottest guy at school and all that." She tossed her blonde hair.
"He's hottielicious," One girl burst out.
"Shut up." Caroline muttered, glaring at her.
"So you coming?" She asked Bonnie, sweetly.
"Heck yeah. It's better than hanging out at home with Jason," She murmured, and Caroline nodded.
"To the mall?" She asked.
"To the mall," Bonnie replied, cheerfully.
After a whole bunch of Oh my god's, "you look fantabulicious" and total fashion alert's, Caroline dropped off Bonnie to her new home. She entered the house, and tried to make her way up the stairs in less than 30 seconds but no such luck, Isobel was already calling her into the kitchen.
Oh God help me, please I hope she won't make me open up to her while laying the table down, I mean those people eat way to much! I usually eat a tofu steak for dinner and drink a cup of tea, but them, they stuff you like a pig. Bonnie thought to herself as she neared her aunt.
"What now? I respected the curfew, can't I just go to my room? I won't bother any of you..." she said annoyed that she could just not do what the hell she wanted, when the hell she wanted.
She reached the kitchen and the table was already laid, and Jason was sitting at his place while drinking a Coke.
"We're about to have dinner Bonnie, take a seat" Isobel pointed out a chair next to Jason.
"How many times I have told you that I don't eat? At least not like you people who eat way to much fat in everything you cook."
"Yeah, sure you don't eat.. " Jason began serious, "because you drink blood!" he was now laughing out loud at his own joke.
"How pathetic," Bonnie snapped. "That's the lamest thing I've heard since I arrived in this shit hole, well maybe right after "What's your name?" because really EVERYBODY knows who I am."
"Bonnie! That's enough! How many times have I told you about language! Go to your room." Isobel was now beetroot red and was getting furious over nothing according to Bonnie.
"Thank you Isobel!" she said while running towards the stairs to her room.
She plumped on her bed and sighed, God living in such a shit hole with a total population of 5,000 people is hell! She thought angrily.
Bonnie's phone vibrated, interrupting her train of thoughts about the ways to get back to LA, one of which faking her own death could be a solution.
You've got two messages, read the screen of her brand new iPhone 4.
From: Unknown
Hey BB! How's it going? Having fun at the mall?
If you want I could give you a ride to school tomorrow.
"Who the fuck is that? I never gave anyone my phone number, at least not the real one..." She muttered, annoyed.
To: Unknown
Who r u? Where do I know u from?
She logged on onto Facebook through her iPhone application, she didn't have any wall posts or any inbox message though. She sighed deeply, well seems like everyone already forgot about me, even Shannon, what a—her thoughts were interrupted by the vibrating phone.
Another message.
From: Unknown
It's Jer! Jeremy Gilbert! The guy next door who you were on the bus with when you got in Richmond airport?
"Wait, Gilbert, I heard that somewhere didn't I? Yeah, right he's the creep that's been following me since I got here... and yeah he has a sister, that Helen chick..what a bitch"
Bonnie gathered all my strength not to lash out on the message and tried to be nice- and believe her she rarely did nice.
To: Creep
Oh, hey Jeremy! How are you? Thanks for worrying about me, but I got home safe and sound ; ) Well I would be delighted if you picked me up and gave me a ride to school.
Thanks Love, have a good night! I'm tired from all that shopping so I'm going to bed now.
Bye
Bonnie went to the bathroom, knowing that Jason wouldn't let her shower the following morning and make her late for school. She had a nice warm shower, that's when she started to think about how people forgot her, she hadn't heard from Shannon at all, and her Twitter account was running low. She couldn't take it anymore, no one loved her, her mother hadn't tried to reach her once, her best friend didn't even text her, and her Aunt and cousin found her deeply annoying.
She wrapped herself in the sheets and muffled some sobs but her eyes were already crying.
Maybe that would be her wake up call...
