Thank y'all so much for the warm reception to this story. It means so much to me!:) R&R3

"...nnie.."

"Bo..ie"

"Bonnie!"

Bonnie jerked back and almost dropped her phone at the sound of Isaac's voice.

They had both finished their phone calls, and an awkward tension had come over them.

"What did you say? I'm sorry. I must have zoned out."

Isaac let out an uncomfortable laugh.

"I just asked if you were feeling okay. You looked really panicked for a second."

Although he had been getting the details of Erica and Boyd's disappearance from Scott, he couldn't help catching some of Bonnie's conversation before she stepped outside, thanks to his wolfy hearing. Something had happened to a Larry and Zach. Or maybe it was Jerry and Nat? Whoever they were, something had happened to them, and the look on Bonnie's face made his heart stop for a second. The light had slowly dimmed from her eyes as the feminine voice continued to relay the situation.

"I'm okay, there's just some drama back home. I'd usually be there to help out, but with my car troubles there's no way for me to make it. Everyone's just really stressed right now." Bonnie lied.

Bonnie was grateful for Isaac's interest in her emotional state. It had been a while since anyone had cared enough to ask how she was feeling. Of course, she couldn't tell him how she was really feeling, which was irritated as hell, but it was still nice to be asked, especially when it seemed he was going through something himself.

Although Bonnie could tell how he tried to hide his emotions, just like she did, the way Isaac's shoulders had dropped during his conversation hadn't escaped her attention. It seemed like he had gotten some pretty bad news himself.

"How about you? You look a little peaky." Bonnie asked a slightly pale Isaac.

"To be honest with you, I always look like this." Isaac said with a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes.

Erica was always telling him he needed to get out into the sun more. With that thought, Isaac turned to look out the window as Bonnie picked at her nails. They were both starting to get pretty uncomfortable. They didn't want to freak the other out with sudden mood swings, but they couldn't shake the information that had come with their calls.

"Bonnie! It's Matt and Jeremy. They're missing." Caroline sounded as if she would start sobbing at any second.

"What?!" Bonnie immediately sat up in the booth.

"They're gone, Bonnie! Klaus has taken them God knows where, and we're freaking out here!" When Caroline's decibel level started to rise, it was time to act. "There's no way Matt and Jeremy are okay with that psycho. We have to find them! Where are you, Bonnie?!"

Bonnie mouthed to Isaac who was taking his own call that she was going to step outside. She tried to take some calming breaths as she made her way out of Talia's, but they weren't helping much.

"What do you mean Klaus took them?!" Bonnie asked the panicked Caroline as she finally made it outside. "Breathe, and tell me what the hell is going on there."

Caroline inhaled shakily.

"Well you know that he told us that if we didn't give him Elena, he would have to resort to something crazy. We had no idea that it would be kidnapping! Matt picked Jeremy up because they were supposed to be working a shift at The Grille, but April called saying they never showed up. On our way up there, we found Matt's truck on the side of the road, and there was a little blood on the steering wheel. Elena's a mess, and I'm obviously not doing much better." Caroline's voice became very quiet. "We need you, Bonnie. Where are you? How long until you reach Mystic?"

Bonnie took a deep breath. "I'm still in California, Care."

"What?!" Caroline exclaimed. "Bonnie, I thought you left a long time ago."

"I wrecked my car, and now I'm stuck until I can get to a garage to find out the damage."

"Oh my gosh! Are you okay?" Caroline asked worriedly.

"I'm fine, but y'all are going to have to try to make due without me. I'm really sorry." Bonnie felt bad that she couldn't be there for her friends.

"Don't worry about it , Bon. We'll figure something out until you can make it back." Caroline said softly. "I'm just glad you're okay. With all of this crap going on, I wouldn't be able to stand it if something happened to you too."

"Everything will be okay, Care." Bonnie sighed. "I'll try to make it back as soon as I can, but keep me updated on what's happening, okay?"

"Sure thing. I love you, Bon. Please be careful." Bonnie smiled at Caroline's words.

"Love you too, Care. Bye." Bonnie slowly lowered the phone, and hung up.

Of course Klaus would wait to make his move when she wasn't in a position to stop him. Bonnie shook her head, and turned to walk back into Talia's. As she glanced through the window, she could see that Isaac seemed to be disturbed.

"Isaac! It's Boyd and Erica. They're missing." Scott said sounding majorly spooked.

"What do you mean they're missing? How do you know? What happened?!" Isaac asked hurriedly.

"They never came back from scouting duty last night. Sometimes they get back late, but they call if they won't make it when we're expecting them. When we tried their cells they didn't answer, so we went out to see if we could find them. Man.. all of their stuff was ruined and we couldn't catch their scent. We have no idea what happened, but there was some kind of struggle, and now they're nowhere to be found." Scott sighed deeply. "We don't want to freak out too much, but we're definitely freaking out over here."

Isaac ran a hand over his face. Things were finally stable with the pack, and now this was happening.

"What is Derek doing to find them?"

"Not much." Scott admitted. Derek was doing the best he could, but with little to no leads, they were in a difficult position. "Where are you? I figured you would be back by now."

"I'm at Talia's."

"Still?!" Scott exclaimed.

"Yeah, man. I'm helping someone out with something. I should be back in a bit."

"Alright, bro. Just be careful, okay? We don't know if Boyd and Erica were an isolated incident, or if something bigger is going on. I'll let you know if we find anything."

"I will. And please let me know if you find anything immediately." Isaac let out a defeated sigh as he hung up. He looked up to see Bonnie making her way back to the table.

"So-" Bonnie started.

"I can-" Isaac began at the same time.

They shared a much needed chuckle.

"Go ahead." Isaac conceded.

"I was just going to see if we could maybe head to the garage now?" Bonnie said shyly.

"Eager to get rid of me?" Isaac said semi-seriously.

"No!" Bonnie began to blush. "No. It just seems like you might have some business to take care of, and I should be heading home soon."

"I'm just messing with you! Let's go." Isaac laid some money on the table for Bonnie's milkshake, and stood up.

"You don't have to pay for me!" Bonnie exclaimed as she went for her wallet.

Isaac grabbed her hand, and helped her out of her seat.

"Well I wouldn't be a gentleman if I didn't, now would I?" He told her with a smile that she returned.

They began walking out of Talia's, and it didn't escape Bonnie's attention that Isaac hadn't let go of her hand.

It also didn't escape her attention that she didn't really mind.

Y'all I have been working like crazy lately! I didn't think it would take me this long to get chapter 3 up, but life happens. I'm not sure when i'll have a chance to start chapter 4, but I have a pretty good idea of what's going to happen, and it may or may not involve someone's secret coming out ;) See ya next time!
