Bonnie Pov.
Splinters of light and glitter rested on my eyelids, pressing me to open them. I couldn't… or more like I wouldn't. I felt numb. I knew I should be shrieking in pain right now, at what I have- or maybe had placed in my stomach. My ears pricked in recognition at that soft velvet voice.
"But Bonnie, you're the crack in the stone. You make me a better person" The voice whispered… it sounded in pain, as if hurting inside. I wanted to just wrap my arms tightly around it and assure it everything would be okay.
"I love you" it sighed, planted a soft dazzling kiss on the base of my small hand… and walked away.
My body rocketed up at full force, without my command. I scanned the room desperately looking for that dark eyed vampire. I was speechless for a few seconds, not knowing what to say as I watched that beauty place his hand on the door handle.
"I love you too" was all I could manage to whisper.
He froze. He store deeply into the door before turning his whole body to turn towards we slowly. As usual, my breathe was taken away by his beauty. The tips of his jet black hair seemed… wet as it hung into his eyes.
Squinting my eyes I realised he was… he was crying. Crystal like tears fell down his cheeks. To my surprise he didn't attempt to wipe them away, and quickly jump into action to defend that he was not soft. He just stood there… and stared deeply into my eyes, as if melting into my soul.
"Bonnie! Bonnie!" I heard Elena's voice shriek out, almost in hysterics. Almost.
"She's in there, Elena dear." A muffled voice replied… Miss Flowers, possibly.
I glanced confused at Damon once again, and drew my eyes away from him. He didn't come near me. He didn't speak to me. He didn't show a slight emotion! He just stood there, and stared.
Lifting up my top slightly, I store deeply into my own stomach… searching for were a deep blood filled hole should have been, were the wooden stake should have been, but no longer was.
"Bonnie!" Yelped Elena once again.
I pulled my head upwards to see a wave of golden hair wash through the door, she brushed past a stumbling Damon easily. She flew towards me. "On Bonnie" she murmured into my hair. Slowly but sternly I wrapped my arms around the sobbing Elena. I still felt kind of… oblivious and confused to my surroundings, I guess it hadn't exactly.. hit me yet.
Before I knew it, Meredith was at my side too. Tears sliding down her pale cheeks. She rubbed my back, and pulled her long thin arms around both me and the hysterical Elena.
I slowly pulled my eyes up to see Stefan whispering something to a still lifeless Damon, he patted his back and walked towards me. "Your awake Bonnie, how are you feeling?" Stefan asked smiling sympathetically.
I nodded and returned the smile weakly. "Am okay… feeling slightly.. numb" glancing at my stomach for a couple of seconds before bringing my eyes back up to my friends beside me. Elena had now stopped crying so hysterically and was in silent sobs. "The numbness will leave you in a couple of hours dear, you just need your rest" Miss Flowers said now entering the room.
By rest, she meant politely for everybody to get the hell out.
Stefan gave her a small nod of appreciation. "Come on love, Bonnie's fine you can see her in a couple of hours" He tore Elena away from my shoulders, and Elena gave me a small squeeze and exited the room.
Stefan shut the door behind him once Elena was out the room.
Just me and Damon now.
Silence. It filled the room. As if in a crushing motion I felt the pressure build up, cramping me into the small bed.
"Damon!" I began to shriek, throwing my arms up in the air. "Will you please say something! Have I done something wrong, have I upset you in some way?"
His perfect brows furrowed together causing small creases on his forehead. "No." He answered simply, the first and only word that left his mouth since she woke up.
Sighing a small smile rose to my lips. I desperately wanted to just feel him, to feel him hold me in his arms. I felt the crushing weakness vibrate from my legs as I tried to move them. But I did it.
I flung my legs over the side of the bed, and jumped down. Bad idea. The pressure of my own body weight on my small weak legs was too much. It sent me flying towards the ground. All I could manage was a small scream.
My eyes slammed shut, but I realised I hadn't fell to the floor. I peaked out of one eye and realised Damon had zapped straight to my side, catching me in his rock solid arms.
I pulled my eyes up to meet his. With out warning he whispered "Oh, Red" and pulled me into a locking hug. He clung onto me for dear life, as if letting go would mean to be parted and never see each other again. Damon pulled his hands under my thighs and lifted me up onto the small bed.
Damon crushed my lips to his, exploring my body with his hands. I flung my arms around his neck, wrapping my legs around his perfectly sculptured waist; I dragged him closer towards me, deepening the kiss. "I thought I'd lost you" He panted.
Damon Pov.
I watched. Just watched as Elena cried hysterically into Bonnie's shoulder and Meredith wrapped her pale arms around the two of them. As if to say 'The sisterhood is still in order'
I continued to watch, as the fragile and weak but very much alive Bonnie cuddled closely into her friends. How could I do that? Risk Bonnie's life like that. Putting her into a position were she was in so much danger, I mean for crying out loud her sister died! Her sister died because of me! Because of what I am… because of what I do, and because of what I've caused. All this happy family stuff should just be left to my brother.
Speak of the saint, and the saint shall appear I thought in a mocking way. Stefan was at my side tapping my back.
"Damon…. Damon are you okay?" He asked warily. I ignored him.
It was now that I noticed that my expression hadn't changed, it just didn't change since the moment I turned to face my baby bird. My baby bird that should have been dead, if it was not for Miss Flowers she certainly would have been.
I could briefly hear Stefan continue to murmur things down my ear, I continued to ignore him… to his disappointment. I soon realised how long it actually had been since I looked at anything else but Bonnie. I didn't care. Every now and then, even with all the chaos of Stefan pulling Elena away from Bonnie, I noticed she'd still slide a small glance my way, while assuring Elena she was fine.
Meredith drifted pass me, and practically screamed a thought in her brain, knowing I would pick it up.
The one good thing about you is Bonnie, don't you give it up. And Damon, if you break her, ill break your face.
She kept a smooth and calm expression considering the amount of shrieking she was doing in her brain.
Stefan released a chuckle as he closed the door, obviously hearing every word she said.
The room was silent. Just me and my Red now. I was enjoying the silence it gave me room to dwell, of course it was broken instantly.
"Damon!" She roared, lashing her small pale arms in the air. "Will you say something! Have I done something wrong, upset you in some way?" She continued.
I held back a small smile not allowing it to come to the surface. How like Bonnie… to assume she'd done something wrong. Somebody could be attempting to take over the world, and she'd still find a way for it to be her fault.
Realising I hadn't replied instantly, I just gave a short yet simple "No"
Warily I bounced my weight from foot to foot as she attempted to stand up. Oh no.
Before I knew it, Bonnie's limp body was hurdling towards her floor; she let out a small shriek. Instantly, as fast as my vampire speed would take me I flew my body towards her and reached out, catching her just before she hit the ground. I looked down at Bonnie's childish yet stunning features. Her flamed bouncy hair bobbed gracefully on her cheek, as she peeked slightly out of one stunning chocolate brown eye. Now she opened both of her eyes.
My heart skipped a beat from the look of pure pain and worry written across her face. "Oh Red" the words left my mouth without thought and I spun her round dragging her into my arms. I wrapped her in my arms, never wanting to let go. Breathing deeply my nostrils were locked with her glorious smell of fresh roses and honeysuckle.
She rested her head on my shoulder and I just wanted to kiss her… It was strange for a vampire to want to kiss a human or partner. They usually would much rather exchange blood, but not with Bonnie, no. I just wanted to comfort her with kisses all day long. She's made me a different person.
With no effort what so ever I lifted her up onto the not comfy at all bed. With such need I forced my lips upon hers. My cool fingers trailed Bonnie's body, starting from hips and ending at her flushing cheeks that held such warmth. The feeling of her arms on my neck, and legs tightly wrapped around my waist sent shivers down my spine. "I thought id lost you" I whispered into her curly hair.
"I'm still here" she giggled, her delicate voice flooding the air. Bonnie pushed her small body onto the bed, only big enough for one, yet she pulled me with her. Reds, now panting breathing mixed with my cool and soft, yet unneeded taking ins of air. I began to quickly un do the buttons of her blue shirt, as she pulled my black T-shirt over my head.
"I love you" She whispered.
"I love you"
She pulled the blankets that were lying on the bed over the two of our heads and we went out into the darkness, showing our devoted love for each other….
Stefan Pov.
When I realised it was past twelve o'clock and Damon and Bonnie had not came out of the basement I decided we might as well leave them there for the night…
But now I had to get them out of there because Matt was in the living room wanting to speak with Bonnie, who obviously had not seen each other since Susan's funeral, plus for the fact Miss Flowers is going nut's not being able to do her unneeded laundry.
So slowly I crept down the stairs of the basement and opened the creaking door.
The scene was adorable… especially for Damon. In the small bed, lay Damon one arm behind his head, his black eyes gazing adoringly into Bonnie's sleeping form. Her short red curls were outstretched on Damon's pale chest with his arm wrapped tightly around her, she stirred in her sleep, obviously hearing me walk in. Damon glared at me intensely now.
"What do you want, brat." He spat under his breathe careful not to wake Bonnie.
I practically scoffed at the tone of his voice. "Morning to you too, brother. Matt's here, to see Bonnie" I said smiling towards his expression. He really did hate Matt.
A small growl bulged in Damon's chest from just the mention of the name. Bonnie's eyelashes began to flutter, as she opened her eyes and leaned up. She turned to Damon smiling sweetly, then noticed I was in the room. Her cheeks flushed instantly. "Morning Stefan" she croaked, chewing on her bottom lip.
"Morning Bonnie" I greeted her, as she attempted to flatten her red mane. "Mortal, Annoying, Troublesome, Things here… Greaaaaaaaaaaaat" Damon spat sarcastically. (A/N for those who haven't yet read the 5th book, yes that's what Damon calls Matt.) "Don't call him that" Bonnie murmured.
"Fine, ill call him Mutt" Damon grinned, giggling Bonnie gave him a small dig in the stomach.
Then a flash of something… realisation came to Bonnie's face and she gave a small groan.
Bonnie Pov.
My mind whirled back to the time when Damon went off after Susan's funeral, the phone conversation with myself and Matt. I let out a small groan knowing now what he was here for.
Flashback.
My phone began to vibrate in my pocket, swiftly I pulled it out and sighed at the name of the screen. 'Matt'
I flipped my phone upwards and answered it. But before I had a chance to say Hello Matt dived straight in there.
"Why did you take off like that after the funeral Bonnie." He practically spat, in a tone the Matt I knew didn't use.
"I told you Matt. I told you I love him." I said softly, but wanting to cut straight to the chase.
"No you don't Bonnie! Anyway, what makes you think he loves you back, there's no point in hanging round a leech like that"
"Matt!" Elena yelled from my side obviously appalled
"Because I happen to know he loves me back Matthew Honeycutt, because me and Damon are dating! Is Stefan a leech too Matt, hey? Is he? And since when have you cared hey! Since when, whats it matter to you who I date!" I practically yelled down the phone to him, anger pulsing through my veins.
"I wont allow it Bonnie. Its not going to stay that way" He sniped coldly.
He cut me off.
End of flashback.
"I told you he was Mortal Annoying and Troublesome" Damon said in a matter of fact tone. I rolled my eyes at him and turned to face Stefan.
They both had obviously heard my thoughts.
"Could you tell him ill be up in 10 please Stefan?" I gave him a weak smile.
"Of course" He nodded and exited the room.
I turned to a look at Damon. Instead of a comforting Damon, of course there would be a smirking Damon.
Groaning I threw my head down into the pillows.
"Kill me now" I muttered, not meaning nothing by it.
"Will do" He agreed with me, and tossed the covers over us bending down to kiss my neck.
By then I had gone into a giggling fit trying to push him off me as he tickled me.
I distracted my mind with Damon's kisses… but I knew whatever Matt has to say, will not go down good.
So… A slight bit of fluff? I told you I'd fit Matt in there somewhere Haha. Reviews are like Damon's Kisses! So hurry up, and click that review button more quicker reviews. Ideas are taken in gladly.
Much Love,
Charlotte
