Chapter 3: Fair
Bella's Point of View
"Alright Ty I thought you said you had gotten better." I teased after I won the second game.
"I did; I can beat Matt." Tyler defended.
"I have always been able to beat Matt so that doesn't count." I replied.
Tyler came over and stood close as I racked up the balls, "So how's the psychic thing?"
I should have explained that Tyler also knew about me, "Not so loud; I don't want to be burned at the stake." I said feigning fear.
"I wouldn't let that happen to you." Tyler said and touched my arm.
I felt the shock I got when a vision was about to hit;
(vision)
Tyler in the forest looking for his Uncle Mason; Mason changing into a werewolf, Tyler changing and chasing Caroline and Stefan, Caroline being bitten.
(end vision)
I was pulled out of the vision gasping for air and my arm was in so much pain from where she would be bit.
"Bella are you okay?" Tyler asked trying to hide me from the rest of the bar.
"Tyler we need to talk; have you been having mood swings?" I asked.
"How did you know?" he asked.
"Let's talk outside." I said.
He followed me out into the alley, "Bella what is going on?"
"Okay do you want me to just spill or let you down easy?" I asked.
"Spill." Tyler said.
"You're a werewolf; change during the full moon type. My guess is you experience the change when you're older and since you're close to 18 I guess that's when the transformation occurs. There's a full moon tomorrow your uncle transform and so are you." I said.
"Is that why I'm so moody and I've been doing my crap?" Tyler asked.
"What crap?" I asked.
"I kissed Matt's mom." Tyler said.
"Oh damn Ty and yeah probably. Oh bad mental image." I said picturing Matt's mom and Ty.
"Okay so you're a witch and I'm a werewolf; are vampires real too?" Ty asked sarcastically. I was silent and Ty narrowed his eyes at me, "Are you serious?"
"Yeah." I said.
"Okay so who's what?" Ty asked.
"Bonnie's a witch, Caroline, Damon, Anna, and Stefan are vampires." I said.
"Caroline's a vampire?" he asked.
"Yeah, but it happened like two days ago so she hasn't been one for long. Katherine who turned Damon and Stefan is Elena's ancestor and they look alike so she killed Caroline, but Damon had fed her his blood and she died with it in her system so yeah." I explained.
"Elena knows?" Ty said.
"Yeah, so does Jeremy, but Matt and that guy Carter are still in the dark so you aren't the last to know." I said trying to cheer him up.
"We have got to talk." Ty stated.
"Yeah, but promise me tomorrow you will come to the boarding house because in my vision you killed Caroline." I said.
"Great." He said.
"Calm down I won't let you kill anyone." I said.
"Did your ex know about you?" he asked.
"No, but he was a different type of vampire than Damon and then Jake was more of a shape shifter since he can change at any time." I said.
"You bring a whole new meaning to the phrase Danger Magnet." Ty laughed.
"Don't I know it, come on I gotta finish whipping your ass in pool." I said and went back in.
Damon's Point of View
"Tyler is in the loop now." I whispered to Elena, Stefan, and Bonnie.
"How?" they asked.
I mouthed 'later' as I saw Bella and Tyler come back in.
"Did she bring Anna back?" Elena asked.
I nodded and everyone started watching Bella closely in case she showed signs of passing out. Finally Tyler and hers game ended and she came over to us.
"I take it Bella smoked you?" Matt asked Tyler.
"Doesn't she always." Tyler said.
"So what have you guys been doing while I was kicking Ty's butt?" Bella asked avoiding my gaze.
"Spilling secrets." I said and that made her glare at me.
"Really, what kind of secrets?" she challenged.
"I told them about your ex." I said.
"Yeah he comes around he is getting an ass whipping including that Jake guy." Matt said.
"I don't know you very well, but you seem like a nice person and you didn't deserve that." Carter said.
"Well thanks, but can we get off the subject of my horrific love life." Bella said.
I placed my arm around her shoulders and she leaned into me, "You tired?" I asked.
"No." she said.
"Liar." I whispered.
"I learned from the best." She said elbowing me.
"So are you two together?" Carter asked me.
"Bella and Damon, no they are just friends." Bonnie said.
"Hey bon how do you know?" Bella challenged.
"You have better taste." She replied.
"Obviously I don't because the guy I picked left me in the middle of the woods alone. Damon's about 3 steps up from my ex." Bella said defending me.
I smiled and appreciated her taking my side.
"Bella what are you doing tomorrow night?" Matt asked.
"Don't know yet; why?" Bella said.
"We were thinking of going out tomorrow night." Caroline said.
"No," Bella said, "Let's go out the next night." I narrowed my eyes at her and she shrugged, "I just need to rest some more; jet lag." I explained to the group.
"Guys have you all met Anna?" Jeremy asked walking over to us.
Bella put on her fake smile, "Nice to meet you Anna." She said and winked at her.
"Nice to meet you too Bella." Anna said smiling.
Bella whispered to me, "Damon, can she stay at the boarding house?"
"Fine, but we are going to talk; don't think I didn't see you got a vision." I replied.
Bella rolled her eyes at me, but agreed. We sat around for about another hour and then we all headed out.
"See you tomorrow night." I heard Bella whisper to Tyler.
We got in the car and I asked, "So he knows?"
"Yep, I told him everything." She replied.
"Why is coming over tomorrow night?" I asked.
"He is going to transform and before you ask my vision was of him chasing Stefan and Caroline and then him biting Caroline. You are aware that a werewolf's bite can kill you right?" Bella asked.
"No I didn't know that because I've never ran into a werewolf." I replied.
"Well no matter no one is going out tomorrow night except me." Bella said.
"Oh no you're not." I said.
"Damon I need you at the house to watch Ty and I have to go and make sure his uncle doesn't kill anyone." She said placing her hand on mine.
"It's too dangerous; you have been using too much as it is." I stated.
"You can't stop me." Bella replied.
I stopped the car in front of the house and turned towards her, "Is that a challenge?"
"Maybe, but you wouldn't do it." Bella said.
"Why wouldn't I?" I asked.
"Because you care too much about me to fight me," Bella replied. She leaned over and kissed my cheek, "And I can honestly say I love that."
She got out of the car and walked up to the house. I quickly followed.
"You love me?" I asked.
"Of course I do Damon, I love that you are a smartass and yeah you can be evil, but I know you. I know you have good in you, I've seen it because that night we met if you didn't have a shred of humanity you would have killed me." Bella replied.
"I'm not all good." I said.
Bella smiled and leaned close to me to whisper, "I'll let you in on a little secret Damon…..I'm not all good either. Goodnight Damon." And she walked up to her room.
(Two weeks later)
Bella had been right about Tyler transforming and thankful she stopped Mason from killing Stefan. Bella had been working with Tyler to control his emotional state and Mason had been around to help as well. I hadn't seen much of Bella since she started school and helping Tyler. I had decided to stage an intervention.
I walked to Bella's room and flung open the door to see her typing away on her laptop lying on her stomach in black short shorts and a black spaghetti strap.
"I like smart girls." I said.
"Really considering your recent conquest I would never have guessed." Bella replied not looking at me.
"This is an intervention." I said coming to sit by her on the bed.
"What are you talking about?" Bella asked.
"I'm talking about I have barely seen you these last two weeks." I said.
"Damon I've been busy." She said.
"Well it's time to play. Come on get dressed you, me, and the Scooby gang are going to the fair." I replied.
"Damon…." She started, but I silenced her by putting my finger to her lips; they were incredibly soft.
"No, now go get dressed." I said.
Bella went to take a shower and I called everyone telling them to meet here.
"Someone's being nice." I heard Stefan say.
"I'm always nice to Bella." I replied pouring me some scotch.
"I will never understand how she can like you." Elena said.
"Actually she loves me." I replied and then froze.
My own words hit me and I liked knowing she loved me.
"I can't believe that." Elena said.
"What I'm a very loveable person." I replied.
"Yeah, okay Damon is that before or after you kill people." She retorted.
"Am I interrupting something?" I heard Bella asked.
I turned to see Bella wearing a red low cut shirt that clung to her curves, skinny jeans with black high heel knee high boots over the jeans. She looked dropped dead gorgeous. Her hair was parted on the side and her eyes were artic blue which meant she was excited, but they quickly turned to a clouded blue which meant she was getting nervous.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
"Nothing," I said blurring next to her, "You look amazing."
Her eyes went back to the artic blue and a blush crossed her cheeks.
"So Tyler, is bringing some girl named Meredith." Elena said and then left the room when her phone rang with Stefan trailing behind.
"So looks like you and I are solo tonight." Bella said.
An idea came into my head, "Maybe not; Bella Swan I would love it if you would be my date to the fair tonight." I said.
"Wow I have been away from you for too long; Damon compulsion doesn't work on me, you would have to actually try on the date." Bella teased.
"Well I think I can manage," I said and then whispered, "If you are willing so am I."
I watched as her eyes turned a dark blue and she smiled, "I would love to go on a date with you Damon."
"We ready?" Stefan asked coming back into the living room.
"Yeah." Bella replied and we headed out.
Bella's Point of View
We got to the fair in the next town and got in line;
"So are you going to compel the ticket people?" I teased Damon.
He just smiled as we got to the front of the line and he pulled out his wallet.
I stood there shocked, "What?" he asked as he handed the girl his money, "I told you this would be a real date and I was willing if you were."
I smiled and then he took my hand lacing our fingers together. I was a little shocked, but Damon just smiled and pulled me closer whispering, "You do this on dates Bella."
"Sorry, but I dated a cold one and he wasn't into the whole touching thing." I replied.
"Well I will have to get you adjusted." He smirked and we walked into the fair.
"What do we want to ride first?" Matt asked and then he got a look on his face.
I looked around and saw everyone had the same look….one of confusion and it was aimed at Damon and me.
"What?" I asked.
"You two seem cozy." Caroline pointed out.
"Your point is?" I asked.
"Nothing," Matt said.
"Let's go on the Drop of Fear." Tyler suggested.
"Which one is that?" Bonnie asked.
Tyler pointed to it, "It's takes you up 177 feet and then you drop." He said grinning.
"No way in hell." I said backing away.
"Come on Bella it will be fun." Elena said.
"No." I said again.
I felt Damon move behind me, wrap his arms around my waist and whispered, "I'll go with you Bella."
It sent a shiver down my spine and I just nodded. We walked over to the ride and I just kept looking up. Finally it was our turn and Damon had to guide me to my seat. I sat there and made the harness click as far as it would go; slowly but surely we started our way up and I clenched the handles until my knuckles were white.
Damon chuckled and I glared, "I'm glad you think this is funny. If anything happens I could die you won't." I said trying to make it come out mean, but you could hear the fear in my voice.
Damon wrenched my hand from the handle, "I wouldn't let that happen." He said. "Look at the view." He said when we reached the top.
I saw all the lights and I relaxed, "Wow this is really pre…." Whoosh.
We dropped and I was cut off mid-sentence. When we reached the bottom we got off and I walked shakily, but Damon came over and held me up.
After that ride I had no problem going on the others and after two hours of riding we decided to eat. After we ate we went to the mid-way and played games; well I watched the guys play games. Damon went to play one and he actually won and got a huge teddy bear.
"Here" he said handing it to me.
"Okay guys we got time for one more thing." Elena said.
"Ferris Wheel!" Caroline screamed.
