Since we all know that TVD is pure fuckery, I'm not going in the direction of the show. Well I never really was, but it probably seemed liked it in the last chapter, but I'm not because I refuse to believe that Bonnie is gone for good. Anyways on to the storyJ.

It was done. Finally. Everything was done, and back to normal; whatever normal was in the town of Mystic Falls. Silas was now on his way to being ways deep underwater, and the veil was put back up. Bonnie crossed her arms looking up at the night sky. The gang managed to survive something with minimum damage, and it seemed as though Elena was fully back to normal after being able to say a real goodbye to Jeremy.
"Hey Bonnie, can we talk?"
She adverted her gaze from the sky to the doe eyed girl she called her bestfriend.
"Sure, what's up?"
"I just want to apologize for everything I've ever done or said to you."
"It's fine. You weren't yourself, and I know how that feels. I wasn't myself for a long time."
Elena nodded and bit her lip.
"I know. I just feel so bad for everything, and I wouldn't have felt right if I didn't come and say sorry. Do you think that we could ever…ya'know?"
Bonnie smiled a little and shrugged.
"We can talk about that later. It looks like you have more important things to attend to." She said as her eyes drifted to the person standing behind Elena, which cause Elena to turn around.
"Stefan…"
"I know." He said calmly, holding his hand out for her. "We have a lot of talking to do."
Bonnie watched as they walked off, smiling softly. Looks like things might swing back into action between those two. Bonnie let out a breath, and started walking toward home.
"You know it's dangerous for a young girl to be walking home alone at this time at night. You never know what's lurking in the dark shadows."
"Something like you?" Bonnie inquired, raising an eyebrow and looking in the direction of the voice.
"Exactly. As of now I am the biggest baddest thing out here. You should watch out."
"No, you should watch out. I just turned an immortal witch into stone. I would like to think I'm the biggest baddest thing out here."
He chuckled a little.
"Oh Bonnie, always too confident about your witches' brew."
"Oh Damon, always underestimating me and my witches' brew."
He smiled a little.
"I think me underestimating you, makes you stronger. Cause we both know you get a kick out of proving me wrong. But you did it Little Witch. You got rid of the big bad witch and you closed the veil." He nodded towards his car. "Come on. I'll take you home."
Bonnie was a little skeptical, but she went anyways. This wasn't the first time she'd been in the car with Damon, and something was telling her it wouldn't be the last.
The light of the morning sun is what woke her up. Today was the day. Graduation day. She flipped the covers off her body, and dragged herself to the bathroom to brush her teeth and wash her face. Thank goodness she took a shower last night, because she didn't feel like dealing with her hair being wet, and having to spend so much time fixing it.
Bonnie walked back into her room, grabbing her clothes, and changing into them. She looked at herself in the full length mirror on her door as she placed her cap and gown on. She gave herself a nod and walked downstairs. She was instantly bombarded by two figures, both yelling 'HAPPY GRADUATION!' Something Bonnie was not expecting.
"Thanks." She mumbled softly, smiling and fixing her hat that was sliding over to the left, thanks to the flailing arms that hit her in the head.
"You don't sound too enthusiastic."
"No I am. I just wasn't expecting all of this."
"Well you only graduate once. Here I got you something."
"Abby you didn't have to."
"No, but I wanted to. " She pulled out a box and she opened it. "It belonged to your Grams. She used it to communicate to witches of she needed a quick answer. I know you can probably do that on your own, but I figured you'd want it, since it's the last thing that belonged to her."
Bonnie couldn't figure out the words to say 'Thank You.' She pulled her Mom into a hug.
"No, thank you. This-this is perfect." She smiled at her and took the necklace from the box, and handed it over to her Dad who placed it on her. "It's beautiful." She said admiring the crest that settled in the middle of the silver platform.
"Just like you." Her Dad said smiling at her.
"Thanks." She turned to face her parents, and that's when she heard a horn blaring.
"Bonnie Bennett! Let's go! We can't be late to our own graduation!"
"Caroline." They all said in unison.
"Go ahead, we'll meet you there."
Bonnie nodded and walked to the door, glancing at her parents again, before walking outside to see her friends outside waiting for her. Caroline wasn't even driving and her voice was the most powerful. Typical. She shook her head and walked over to the car. She was about to open the door to the backseat when a pale hand stopped her.
"Nuh uh Little Witch, you're riding with me."
"And if she does we won't ever see her again." Caroline retaliated.
"Something tells me she wouldn't mind."
Bonnie looked at Damon who met her glance with a smirk.
"It's fine Caroline. I can handle myself."
"Well stay in my view."
"Whatever you say Barbie." Damon answered as he walked with Bonnie to his car.
"I mean it Damon!" Care yelled as her Matt, Elena, and Stefan started heading down the street.
"She's serious you know? If I'm not there in time she's going to flip shit, and I have a feeling it's not going to end well for you."
"Does anything ever do?" He asked opening her door.
Bonnie stepped into the car, and pulled the bottom of her gown in, as he shut her door. He walked around to his side, and got in starting the car, and taking off.
"So how do you feel? Graduating High School and all?"
"I feel somewhat official. I mean it's the ending of one chapter, but an opening to another. The final step into adulthood. I think I'm ready."
"Well aren't you a walking Hallmark card."
She rolled her eyes.
"Shut up."
"But really, do you think you're really ready for this? Going to college becoming independent."
"I've been independent since age 6, and I've handled more stressful things than college. Hasn't the last few months been enough evidence for that?"
"Touché."
"Why are you going to graduation?"
"Are you kidding? Out of all the things I could be doing, I figured this couldn't be more important."
"Which means you have nothing else better to do with your life?"
"Yea, you got me. I don't. I'm a boring 142 year old vampire now that everything seems to be going down east street."
"That's for now. Something is going to come up."
"And why do you say that?" He asked sending her a quick glance.
"Because something always does. It's Mystic Falls. The town of never ending supernatural and weirdness."
"Well right now we are worried about you and the scooby gang walking across the stage today."
"Yea."
It was a little weird that today was well, a normal day. Something that she had become un-accustomed to. Everything had been so not normal that it became normal. So she just kind of expected walking up and facing a problem, but as of right now there wasn't a problem. There wasn't a villain to be put down. None of her friends were in potential danger, or needed saving. There was no master plan to conjurer up, no spells needed to do or undo anything. It was just….ordinary. Somehow it was dreadfully ordinary.
There ya go. Another chapter and it didn't forever and a day for it. Stay tune for more lovelies.
