I do not own the Vampire Diaries
Chapter 8
Elena stood against the wall watching as Caroline danced with both Stefan and Tyler. Elena had been in a strange mood all night, normally she would have been out on the dance floor enjoying herself too, but she just didn't feel like it. She kept thinking about what was going on with Damon and Bonnie. Elena's eyes wandered around the club watching everyone have a good time when she spotted Bonnie walking out of the double doors from the back of the club. She then ducked into the ladies restroom, and not two minutes later Damon came through the same doors. Her mouth dropped open because her mind was putting two and two together, and it was coming up that Bonnie and Damon had been together…doing what, she didn't want to speculate. She watched Damon as he scanned the club like he was looking for someone, then he walked to the bar.
Caroline, Stefan, and Tyler came back to the table and sat down, but Elena remained standing against the wall. She watched as Bonnie came out of the restroom and made her way towards their table. Bonnie's eyes kept darting around the club, and when she saw Elena looking at her Bonnie smiled hesitantly.
Bonnie sat down at the table with her friends. She was really ready to go home, but she knew that she couldn't leave her own party. She looked around the club and noticed that Mason and Jules were gone. Caroline grabbed Bonnie's hand to get her attention.
"Hey…where have you been?" she asked.
"I needed to get some air…it got a little too warm in here." Bonnie lied, not looking Caroline in the eye.
"Have you eaten anything yet?" Caroline asked
"No…and I'm kind of hungry…would you mind fixing me a plate?" Bonnie asked. She was really sore and every move she made only made it worse.
"Sure…sweetie…what do you want?"
"Anything." Bonnie replied.
Caroline got up from the table and walked across the club to where the food was laid out. Elena took her seat, but before she could say anything to Bonnie, Damon sat down at the table with his eyes on Bonnie. Elena watched as Bonnie ignored him and turned to her.
"Why are you so quite?" Bonnie asked Elena. She noticed that Elena had barely said five words to her all night.
Elena looked across the table at Damon who was still looking at Bonnie but was now sulking. She looked back at Bonnie. "I'm just tired…it's been a long day."
Bonnie grabbed her hand. "Thank you guys for this…I wasn't expecting anything…this was really great."
"So…you had a good time tonight Bonnie?" Damon asked in a snarky way. He was really pissed off that she was now trying to ignore him. He just didn't get her. She was the one that initiated what happened, and now she was acting like he didn't exist. He didn't expect her to fall in love with him or anything…well maybe he kind of did…but he sure as hell wasn't expecting her to act like this either…like she wanted to forget having fucked him. If that was the case then Bonnie was sorely mistaken because he would remind her every second of every minute of every hour …
Bonnie looked across the table at Damon. She could see that he was mad at her and honestly she couldn't blame him. She knew that she was being standoffish with him, but she couldn't help it. She was freaking out...she had just fucked him in the back room of a night club! She had no excuse for her behavior. Seeing Mason with Jules messed with her mind a little bit, and she needed a drink to take the edge off. Bonnie knew that she was a light weight when it came to alcohol, so she shied away from it, but who knew that drinking two strawberry daiquiris would release her inhibitions to the point where she'd do something so drastic like losing her virginity in the back of a club to Damon Salvatore. And, now he kept looking at her with those eyes of his, trying to bore a hole right through her. She wished that she could just leave and get away from him.
Caroline walked back to the table carrying Bonnie's food. She sat the plate down in front of Bonnie, giving her the excuse not to answer Damon. She began eating. But, Damon refused to let her off the hook.
"I see you've worked up an appetite there…haven't you Bonnie?" He said draining his glass.
He smirked when she pushed her plate away. Everyone at the table looked between him and Bonnie. They could tell that something was going on they just couldn't figure out what…except for Elena. She could tell just by the way Damon looked at Bonnie that they had just fucked. She wouldn't have believed it if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes.
"You guys…thank you for my party…it was really great…but I've had enough excitement for one night…" Bonnie didn't get a chance to finish because Caroline interrupted her.
"Wait….what…I know you are not ready to leave now are you?" she asked.
"Yeah…Care…I'm sorry…but…" Bonnie didn't get a chance to finish because Caroline was adamantly shaking her head no.
"Bonnie…you just can't leave your own party." She said
Bonnie knew Caroline was right. She risked a look at Damon and saw in is face that he was going to make the rest of this night very difficult for her. She wouldn't be surprised if he blurted out to everyone that they'd just had sex in the back room. And, she vowed to light his ass up if he did.
Stefan, like everyone else at the table could feel the tension between Damon and Bonnie, and he could see that Bonnie was very uncomfortable. So, he got up and asked Bonnie to dance with him. Even though she was hurting, she got up and took his hand; she was so grateful to get away from Damon.
Stefan pulled Bonnie into his arms, and his eyes widened. He looked down at her in shock and worry. He could smell that she had been with Damon. Because he was so worried about her, he did the most uncharacteristic thing...he took hold of her chin lifting her face to look into her eyes. Bonnie was taken back for a second because Stefan had never touched her like that before.
"Bonnie…did Damon force you to be with him?" he asked her, searching her eyes.
Bonnie sighed. She should have known that even though she had washed herself in the ladies restroom that a vampire would still be able to detect a scent over soap and water. She didn't want to discuss this right now, but she couldn't have Stefan believing that Damon forced her to have sex.
"Stefan…Damon didn't force me to do anything…what happened was my fault." She said.
He removed his hand from her face. "Bonnie, what were you thinking?" he asked her in disbelief.
Bonnie laughed softly with regret as her eyes began to fill up with tears. "That's the thing…I wasn't thinking…Stefan, I've never messed up this badly before." A tear escape from her eye and rolled down her cheek. Stefan wiped the tear away with this thumb.
When Stefan had first asked Bonnie to dance, Damon had to force himself not to say or do anything stupid because every fiber of his being was screaming that Bonnie was his, and he didn't want his brother touching her not even to dance. He watched as they danced. His face was like stone, and his eyes were glacial as he saw Stefan lift Bonnie's face to him, looking deeply into her eyes, and when he wiped her tear away, Damon was out of his seat and standing before them in a flash.
Damon grabbed Stefan's wrist in a tight grip. "Little brother…I wouldn't do that if I were you."
Stefan and Damon glared at one another; it was like they were having a conversation between each other, but they were doing it with their eyes.
Bonnie quickly wiped her face, getting rid of any sign that she had been crying. She didn't like the death stares that the Salvatore brothers were giving each other.
"Damon…please don't do this…we were…" She didn't finish as Damon roughly let go of Stefan and glared at her. His eyes were menacing. Bonnie stepped back.
"When did you and Stefan become a we?" His voice was dripping with venom.
Elena, Caroline, and Tyler came up to them after witnessing what was happening. Tyler got in between them.
"Whoa…guys…hey…we are at a party…surrounded by people…you can't do this shit here." He said looking between the two brothers.
Caroline stood in front of Bonnie. She didn't like the way Damon was looking at her. Elena grabbed Stefan's arm to get his attention.
"Hey…come on…let's get out of here." When he still wouldn't look at her, Elena turned his face to her. "Stefan…please, let's go." Stefan allowed himself to be pulled away by her.
"Damon, maybe you should go outside and get some air." Tyler suggested.
Damon's anger was still at a boiling point. For once he was happy that baby vamp and teen wolf intervened because for a moment there he wanted to hurt Bonnie. He didn't know where the urge came from, but something inside of him felt the need to physically hurt her. It scared him because even when he and Bonnie were at their worst and couldn't stand each other; the thought never even crossed his mind to physically put his hands on her. Damon walked out of the club.
Tyler, Caroline, and Bonnie walked back to their table sitting down. Caroline whispered in Tyler's ear, and he got up from the table, leaving the two girls alone.
Bonnie knew that if Stefan could smell Damon on her then so could Caroline…hell maybe even Tyler too. She felt really embarrassed. She couldn't bring herself to look at Caroline.
"Hey…Bonnie…I'm not judging you okay. I love you, and I got your back, no matter what."
Bonnie looked at Caroline and the tears started to fall. "Care…I can't believe that I did this."
Caroline hugged her, rubbing her back. "I have to say Bonnie…when you do fuck up…you do it big time."
Both girls laughed. Bonnie pulled back and wiped her tears away. She looked at Caroline seriously now. "Damon isn't going to let this go."
The brief couple of months she spent with Damon was still hard for Caroline to get over. Even though she didn't remember everything that happened between them, she still remember bits and pieces. She knew that Damon had fed from her, and that they had sex. There were times when he threaten her and made her do things that she didn't want to do. Even after she was turned and kicked his ass for the way he treated her, there was a part of Caroline that would never forgive him.
"I think you are right sweetie. I saw the way he looked at you…he won't be letting this go anytime soon."
Bonnie and Caroline stayed until the end of the party. Damon didn't come back and for that Bonnie was grateful. Damon was going to make this hard for her. Even though Damon couldn't have Elena, Bonnie knew that he was still in love with her, and she refused to be his rebound. Bonnie wasn't stupid; she saw the way Damon was looking at her now…like he owned her or something. She was not going to play this game with him. He wasn't going to turn her life upside down. She needed time to think. Her life had changed so much in the span of a few hours. She was now eighteen .She was no longer a virgin. She had sex with Damon Salvatore. And, to make matters worse, she still had feelings for Mason Lockwood.
