Chapter 2

"Sometimes escaping into my mind is the only way to keep sanity because the rest are all mad."

Jerrell McGirt

The sunlight shone through the window as Bonnie opened her eyes. As they adjusted to the light she turned her head to the spot where Damon laid, body still facing towards her. She was about to place her hands on his face when her alarm went off.

"Bonnie." Damon grunted. She laughed; he didn't really like getting up in the morning. She leaned over and turned it off.

"Sorry." Hopping out the bed, she had to get ready for work. Of course it wasn't her dream job but the job at Matt's store wasn't all that bad either. She got to sit behind a cash register all day. It was normal though so she appreciated it anyway.

As the water hit her skin, Bonnie felt relaxed. Today was going to be another day as usual. Work with Matt, Lunch with Elena and Caroline, and visit Tyler at the office to help out with some papers. They had also fallen in love with Jersey Shore and decided to watch the show when they were supposed to be filing papers. It was more fun that way.

Her life seemed as though it should bore her, but she was glad to have a somewhat normal one. Well as normal as it could get for a witch living in a highly supernatural town. Turning the water off, she got out wrapping the towel around her. She went back into her room and Damon was still knocked out.

"You know you have to get eventually?"

"But not anytime soon." She laughed and dressed herself. Today was casual Friday so they could wear a pair of jeans and some type of Jersey from a sport. Today David Beckham was the lucky winner. Throwing on the jersey, the sound of Damon's cell phone rang.

"Damon. Your phone is ringing." She moved to his side of the bed to pick it up.

"They can call back later." he mumbled his head under the pillow.

"It's Alaric." She watched as he grunted and took the pillow from off his head.

"He'll call back." Damon answered.

She just laughed as she answered the cell, "Hi Ric."

"Hey Bonnie, Is Damon near you?"

"Yeah but he's sleep."

"Tell him he needs to get his ass up." Alaric said raising his voice. She laughed as she looked over to Damon.

"I know you heard that. Here he is Ric. I'll talk to you later." She said finishing her conversation with Alaric."Talk to you later sweetie." As she handed Damon his phone he gave her a quick smirk before she blew a kiss back his way.

She left them to their conversation as she walked into the kitchen, placing the bread in the toaster and pouring a glass of orange juice. She was grabbing her keys and heading out the door when she saw Damon coming down the stairs.

"I thought it was too early for you to get up."

"Alaric reminded me that we have business to take care of."

"The demon thing."

"Yeah he found something and thinks he might've found someone who works for the creature we are looking for."

"Alright we'll I'll see you later. Be careful"

"You know me. Always Careful." He smiled at her placing a kiss on her lips.

"Yeah I do know you. I'll call Alaric and make sure he keeps a close eye on you."

"Bye Bonnie." He said leading the witch out of the house. As the two got in there vehicles and drove opposite ways.

Bonnie sat in the empty store. She knew most of the customers didn't come until after school let out. So she quietly read her magazine until the bell at the front door rang. She looked up to see Matt approaching her.

"Good Morning." He said coffee in hand.

"Morning Boss. What are you doing here so early?"

"Tony called in sick so I'm taking his place."

"Is he going to be okay?"

"Oh he's fine. I saw him at the Grille last night he might just have a hangover."

"What?" She asked as if the two were gossiping.

"He doesn't know I saw him."

"So what are you going to do about him?"

"I'll talk to him about that tomorrow." Bonnie placed her elbow on the table and her fist under her chin.

"Sounds like it's going to be fun."

"If that's what you want to call it. I'll be in the back if you need me."

"Okay."

Most of the morning was spent with the two talking, rearranging the display, and other task that were part of taking care of a business.

When she had a minute to herself her mind slipped to last night and how smoothly everything had gone. The boy Alan could be useful and just as good as her with more practice. It took a little more time than she thought and she had returned home an hour and a half before her alarmed rang. She was tired but she usually made up for sleep by taking naps during her breaks. She was about to continue thinking about the night when she heard Matt's voice.

"Bon, it's almost lunch time. What do you have planned?"

"I'm going to dinner with your wife and Elena. I'm about to leave want to join us."

"Naw, I'm having lunch with Ty."

"Oh tell him I said hi and to get ready for our show later." As Bonnie left, Matt followed behind her locking up for their lunch break with a sign that said be back in an hour. She had walked over to the Grill and found them a booth.

Bonnie had ordered the drinks when she saw her blonde friend "Hey Caroline where's Elena? Is she running a little late?"

"Elena got a call from Stefan so it's just going to be us two." Bonnie was about to order when her phone rang. "Let me guess, that's Damon."

"Uh yeah, you know they've been working on finding that demon that came through town last month when two teenagers went missing."

"That's right you guys haven't found them yet."

"No" Bonnie grabbed her bag and got up to leave. "Caroline I'll see you later."

Bonnie entered the Salvatore Mansion to see Jeremy and Anna standing over something.

"Hey Bonnie." Anna said as she went around the table to stand on the other side. Bonnie didn't know what it was but lately the vamp had been given her a look. She couldn't explain it but she felt like the vampire was suspicious about her and today it just seemed worst. Though Anna seemed to hide that fact pretty well and Bonnie figured why not do the same as well.

"Hey you guys. I got a text from Damon. He told me it was an emergency so I came over as soon as I could."

"Damon, Alaric, and Stefan found a vampire that they think work with the demon. They are bringing him in now."

"Where's Elena?"

"She's downstairs in the cell getting everything ready."

"Alright. Wait isn't it daytime?"

"Yeah but guess what? This vamp has a ring."

"Why is that good?" Jeremy asked not sure what she meant.

"It's just interesting." Anna said moving to stand next to Elena, who had just made her way to them a few seconds ago.

Bonnie crossed her arms as she sat back on the couch. Anna sure did get happy about some pretty useless stuff, she thought. The sound of someone busting threw the door made all four position for a fight.

"It's just Alaric and Stefan." Anna said relaxing.

"Yeah. Sorry about all that this dude won't relax." Stefan was holding on to him as Alaric kept the gun pointed to his heart.

"Maybe because he knows we are about to kill him." Jeremy said moving toward the men.

"Take him down stairs." Bonnie had heard Damon say coming in behind his brother.

"What do you guys need me for? It looks like you have everything covered?" she was staring at Damon who had been focusing on the vampire they had just bought in.

"We need you to go down there and see if you can see anything in his head. Anything that can lead to his accomplices or the Demon."

"That's it."

"Yup." Bonnie made her way down into the cellar and met Stefan and Alaric tying the body down.

"Alright Bonnie if you need us." Stefan began.

"I know." She said nodding her head. The two left her down there as she took in the male. They had covered up his head and she had no idea why. She moved toward him when she heard him speak.

"Bonnie is that you?" Her eyes grew as she moved closer to the male taking the bag off.

"Stanley!" After the shock subsided she began asking questions, "How the hell did they find you?"

"I don't know. I was working on that stuff for you and then they just busted in."

"They couldn't have busted in, I protected your apartment."

"I was going outside to the other place."

"Where was Bill?"

"They killed him." Damn Bonnie thought this is not good.

"Oh my god I have to get you out of here. They think you have something to do with this demon we're looking for."

"They might be right. I may have worked with him or had him killed."

"Yeah but interrogating you can also lead to me. Plus you aren't who we're looking for anyway. Where's your ring?"

"The haggard one took it and put it over there." Bonnie turned to the small table and picked the ring up.

"Put this on." He tried handing it to him but she saw he was too weak. She held up his hand and placed it on his finger. "Do you know of any other witch who can take care of you because I can't right now?"

"You know you're the only witch I work with. Besides you, I deal with Demons, vampires and other supernatural creatures. And I know for sure they won't help me."

Bonnie groaned thinking about what the hell to do. She couldn't just walk up stairs and say that he didn't do anything wrong so can we let him go. He's the vampire that I assassinate for and has saved my life. She didn't want her friends asking questions that she couldn't answer, nor wanted to.

"You're not lying to me are you?" She asked making sure before she let him go.

"No, Bonnie. I usually don't deal with witches but I made an exception for you because I see something dark in you that I like." She didn't have time for this. She had to get him out of here before her shit started hitting the fan.

She went to the door and looked out to see if anyone was approaching. "Tell me if you hear anyone coming?"

"No they're all talking about ways to get information out of me."

"That sounds about right." Untying the rope she spoke again, "I'm going to let you go."

"Thank you. But I'm not strong enough to get out of here by myself."

"I know. Here." Bonnie held out her wrist and pulled her sleeve up. "Bite closer to the forearm."

"Why don't you just tell your friends that I don't have anything to do with this?"

"I can't."

"Why? " He paused, waiting for an answer but then one came to him. "They don't know about your extracurricular activities do they?"

"No."

"Just like we didn't know about your day life of being a hero?"

"Yes and I'm sorry you have to find out like this but I don't want them to know what I do at night."

"You're scared there going to hate you." She didn't want to talk about this. She just wanted him to go before something bad happened to him. She shouldn't care but he had saved her life once, so she did owe him. "Fine, as long as you have my back I have yours, but when I get out of here we have some things we need to discuss."

Bonnie nodded her head and moved over so the vamp could bite into her arm and suck the blood out. When he was all finished she rolled her sleeve down and looked at him. "Okay here's the plan."

A/N: Okay its not much but I'm trying to build the story/plot. Things will be getting a little more action packed next chapter.
