Disclaimer: Don't own anything TVD related because if I did there would be heaps and heaps of Bamon and Stelena scenes (what? I can't help it my heart chooses Stelena and Bamon :P). I do own my grammatical errors
Previously on The Vampire Diaries…
Kayla's eyes fluttered open letting it adjust to the scenery. Realizing she was back in her room she felt weight on both of her hands, looking down to see Bonnie on one side of her and then on the other side was Damon. She looked down to notice underneath her thin strapped tank top around her heart area was bandaged.
"How are you feeling?" to a human ear it was a low whisper but to Kayla's ears it was as clear as talking
"A little tortured but much better" she replied looking to Damon
"Why did you take the deal? Why did you make the deal with Katherine?"
Bonnie sighed leaning back against the sofa chair she looked to Damon who was staring at her intensely "I was in a dark place and I blamed my Grams death on the Salvatore brothers. I hated them and I swore to protect the town but I didn't believe I could, not without my Grams…" she paused getting teary. Holding back her tears, Bonnie continued
"…I made that deal with Katherine because I was desperate. If killing Damon and Stefan meant I would get my Grams back then I would do that even if it means joining forces with Katherine" Bonnie stated truthfully to her daughter not bothering to look at Damon as she felt his heated stares never leaving her skin
Kayla nodded "I know. I meant the other side of the deal"
"What other deal?" Damon asked instantly
This was why she didn't want her father here sensing the anger build inside him while her mother stiffened at the reminder "The vampire device. Why did you agree to change the device to target humans?"
"What?" Damon exclaimed
"Truthfully…" Bonnie started
"That would be nice" Kayla retorted softly
"I agreed to make Katherine happy so she would let me go and kill Damon and Stefan but I think deep down I knew I couldn't go through killing Damon and Stefan and bringing someone back from the dead wasn't normal. If she did capture me and asked me to change the target to humans but to only target particular humans" Bonnie explained
"Huh?" Damon questioned
"Only a Bennett can magically change the targeting on that device"
Kayla's eyes widened in realization gasping in shock "You were going to, target witches!"
Bonnie nodded before opening her mouth to speak Damon had angrily sped out of the room. The two girls looked at the door now shut
Kayla looked to her mother in more admiration she had before "You wanted to sacrifice yourself so Katherine would have no chance of changing the device"
"Damon…" Bonnie started grabbing his arm while Kayla and Stefan walked to the location for the spell to be taken place
"Not now witch" he snapped at her causing to quickly retreat her hand away
Damon took a deep breath and turned to face Bonnie "I can't talk right now. Just think about getting Kayla home safely"
Bonnie nodded obediently "Yeah okay" and walked past Damon
Damon tiredly ran his hands over his face "Stupid emotions" he muttered then walked to Stefan, Kayla and Bonnie.
Kayla placed the card in front of the cross legged Bonnie Bennett.
"Okay write 'p' on the left so the card and then 'f' on the right side" Bonnie nodded and did as followed then placed the pen on the ground
Kayla handed the bobby pin to Bonnie "Okay when you place the bobby pin in the middle you say…" Kayla bent down whispering the Latin words into her ears
"Oh and dad..."
"Yeah" Damon looked at Kayla curious. Kayla bit her bottom lip not sure if she should tell him...well telling him now and then going to the future does give him sixteen years to wrap his head around what she was going to say
"I'm dating someone"
"What!" Damon yelled surprised by his sudden outraged
Bonnie took a deep breath and placed the bobby pin in the middle of the playing card. Closing her eyes and connecting her emotion to her powers. Damon and Stefan looked around them as lights and the fire began to flicker with Bonnie's powers
"Time adducere futurum" Bonnie spoke in Latin picturing the number of 2031 in her mind. The ground began to shake roughly causing Damon and Stefan to fall on their butts.
Damon and Stefan watched Bonnie's hairs blow with the wind as she and the playing card levitated a little off the ground but she held the bobby pin in it's place. Kayla leaned against the corner of the staircase while objects around the house shook violently. Damon and Stefan closed their eyes quickly from the blinding light that appeared near Kayla.
They opened their eyes to squint a little but caught the last gesture of Kayla Salvatore waving goodbye and then jump into the portal.
Within seconds the portal closed, Bonnie floated slowly back to the ground and the house was once again stilled.
Bonnie took a sudden intake of air. Opening her eyes she whispered tearfully "She's gone"
Epilogue
Salvatore Boarding house…Friday 2031. 6:30pm
"Oof" the sound left Kayla's mouth landing on the floor at the bottom of the staircase at the feet of someone
Kayla looked up slowly to see a not an impressed Damon Salvatore arms crossed over his chest
"Hey papa" Kayla said softly lifting herself up but he held his hand out to help his daughter up and pulled her into a hug
"You are either stupid or a Salvatore" he mumbled
Kayla laughed tearfully wrapping her arms around his waist as her head perfectly fitted under his chin "I'm sorry dad"
"Is she here?" Kayla heard her mother yell frantically rushing out of the kitchen to be met with the sight of Damon and Kayla hugging
Kayla pulled back frowning seeing her mother's housewife attire "My baby!" she exclaimed as Damon stepped back and Kayla was engulfed in a tight hug
"Mum, I'm okay"
"Bon I think you need to let our daughter go" Bonnie immediately let go and held her daughter by the shoulders
"You are either stupid or a damn Salvatore!" Kayla and Damon laughed out loud but were silenced by Bonnie's glare on both of them
"Sorry ma"
"You better be! Three days you were missing!" Bonnie exclaimed then closed her eyes by the overwhelm of emotions
"Are you sure the blood healed your shoulder?" Bonnie pulled aside Kayla's jacket and top to inspect the shoulder
"Yeah it's all good" Kayla said as the timer in the oven went off
"Oh snap! Damon, can you take out the roast chicken?"
"I don't see the point of this dinner since we all drink blood" then looked to his daughter remembering the point of Bonnie's cooking
"Who told you that you can get a boyfriend?"
"I'm sixteen" Kayla stated looking to her father while Bonnie had her arms around her shoulders
"And?" Damon questioned then looked to Bonnie
"Bon bon remember that deal we made when you gave birth to her" Bonnie rolled her eyes remembering.
'I should really stop making deals with vampires' Bonnie thought
"Yes honey I do" she answered knowingly
"And what was that deal?" he prodded more from Bonnie's short answer
The witch groaned placing her hands tiredly against her forehead "That Kayla shall not date until you are dead…literally"
"What? That will be like... never!" Kayla exclaimed looking at both her parents
"Exactly" Damon stated smugly, crossing his arms over his chest
"Kay baby can you get the chicken out. I'll talk to your father and you better go and get ready because your boyfriend will be here in an hour"
"You know?" Kayla asked surprised
Bonnie nodded "I'm your mother of course I know and he's good guy"
Kayla squealed in happiness hugging her mother "Thank you!" then sped off to the kitchen
Damon frowned stomping upstairs like a child that had his cookie taken away from him "Damon!" Bonnie yelled but heard their bedroom door slam shut
Bonnie held the bridge of her nose muttering while making her way to their room "My gosh it's like dealing with a kid"
Once in front of the door she opened it to find him seated on their bed "Damon…" she stated softly
He looked up and glared at her "No don't Damon me"
Bonnie chuckled "Why?"
"Because you knew about that deal and you backed out of it" he pouted
Bonnie walked towards him and stood in front of him "When have I actually stayed true in a deal with a vampire. The only deal I've been true to, is me being married to you"
Damon grabbed her hips pulling her towards him causing her to giggle and fall onto his lap. She wrapped her arms around his neck while he buried his face into the crook of her neck while inhaling her scent
"I'm still angry with you Bonnie Salvatore" he muttered then began placing kisses along her neck causing her to inhale sharply. Even after all these years his kisses sent her body in frenzy even when she became a vampire it just strengthened their love.
"Mmmm Damon we can't, I still have to get dinner ready" she said pulling back earning a groan of protest from Damon
"Fine. I blame you though. You look just so sexy being all housewifey; how can I not resist taking you?" Damon smirked kissing her briefly on her lips while lovingly running his hands through her hair taking the hair tie out and watching it fall perfectly against her shoulders
Bonnie chuckled "Damon I'm just wearing an apron over my jeans and my hair is pretty much a mess"
"That's sexy" he muttered kissing her lips again
Bonnie opened her eyes after the kiss while her hands caressed his cheek and asked "Be nice please"
"But I don't wanna be nice" he whined to her
"Damon. I mean it. I just want to have a normal dinner with our daughter and her first boyfriend"
Damon growled lowly at the mention of the mysterious visitor "He's a good guy, you'll like him plus we know him" Bonnie assured him
"Fine, but let me interrogate him"
"It's not like I can stop you" Bonnie stated as he smirked at her saying
"True. You know we still have to tell Kayla about Katherine"
"That after all she went through she's still alive and running around" Bonnie muttered not pleased that killing the future Katherine really didn't change much
Damon chuckled "Well she hasn't made an appearance since her message this morning" as they both looked to the folded note on Bonnie's dresser table reading only two words "Still alive"
Bonnie sighed but spoke determined looking at Damon "Well she better not tonight because I made dinner and I will not have it ruined by her. Tonight is Kayla's night"
"Kayla's night" Damon repeated and placed a chaste kiss upon his wife's lips
"We better go and finish off dinner before this boyfriend comes" Damon said still with distaste of that word
Bonnie laughed out loud standing up "You could at least be happy that your daughter found someone of the opposite sex"
"Hello I'm the opposite sex and I know how our mind work at this age"
"What at a one hundred and…" Bonnie never finished as Damon cut her off
"I meant as a teenage boy. At that age we only one thing on our mind and we are very horny bastards"
"And yet I married you" Bonnie smirked pulling him up towards her
"Yeah you married me. If Kayla is anything like you we should be worried about her choices in boys" he explained while being pulled by Bonnie downstairs to set dinner up
"Damon sweetie, we just have to trust Kayla from now on"
"Yeah, yeah" he muttered as Bonnie began to ordered him around the kitchen
*One hour later*
*Knock Knock*
"I'll get it!" Damon yelled before speeding to the door he heard Bonnie's whisper of 'Don't freak out'
Damon took a deep breath holding back the urge to beat the crap out of the person on the other side. Once in control he opened the door to reveal his daughter's first boyfriend
"No! Not this dickhead!" he yelled and slamming the door immediately before the boy got a word out
"Daddy!" Kayla screeched from the staircase annoyed that her father just slammed the door to her boyfriend's face
"Him! Seriously! Is this some karmic punishment for me?" Damon yelled at his daughter walking towards her meeting at the bottom of the staircase. Bonnie rolled her eyes from the kitchen and just yelled for him to come
Kayla rolled her eyes as Damon ignored his wife's call but he couldn't when he heard her again "Damon Giuseppe Salvatore if you don't come here you will not be getting laid tonight or for a very long time. Shall I remind you I can go on without sex for another whole month?"
Damon winced at that memory "Coming honey!" he said sarcastically making his way to the kitchen
Kayla giggled this was definitely what she missed here. Smiling happily she opened the door and jumped into her boyfriend's arms
"Thank god you're okay" he muttered holding her close to him
Kayla smiled pulling back looking up to him "I'm okay Ryan" she said brushing away his blonde bangs
He bent his head down and brushed his lips against hers then pulled back "Don't do anything crazy like that again without me, okay?"
Kayla stunned speechless as always after his kisses nodded "I won't, I'll just leave the crazy to you"
"No. Leave the crazy to us" Ryan said causing Kayla to smile widely and stood on her tip toe and kissed him
*In the kitchen*
"Awwww he's such a sweetie" Bonnie sighed as both parent listened to Kayla and Ryan communicate
Damon rolled his eyes and mimicked Ryan's words in an exaggerating tone "Leave the crazy to us... Suck-up" he muttered earning a playful slap from Bonnie
"No he's not. Our daughter is dating a sweet guy"
"Sweet? Do we know who he is? Better yet, do you know who his father is?" he whispered angrily
"Damon…"
"I bet this is all part of his plan…" he explained as the wheels in his head began to turn
"Damon…"
"I bet he sent his son to seduce our innocent girl only to have him break her heart or maybe…"
"Damon!" Bonnie whispered loudly
"What?" he whispered back in the same tone
"Did you think…oh I don't know? Maybe Ryan actually liked Kayla and that Kayla liked him too"
"But they are so opposite" Damon exaggerated causing Bonnie to chuckle and lazily wrap her arms around his neck
"I think I remember everyone thinking the same thing when we got together"
"Yeah but it was destined for us to end up together" he said proudly placing a kiss on the top of her nose while wrapping his arms around her waist and continued to explain
"She is Kayla Salvatore. She's half vampire, half witch. She's gorgeous thanks to our good genes. She's smart and a good girl maybe a little rebellious but overall an awesome daughter"
"Mmmhmm" Bonnie nodded proud of Damon's speech
"He on the other hand is trouble and bleach boy's son"
"And…" Bonnie said wondering if there was anymore he wanted to say about Ryan
"That's it. He's bleach boy son I think that establish what kind of boy Ryan Garwin is"
Bonnie rolled her eyes at her husband's immaturity "Seriously after all these years I would think you and Reid would stop competing in everything. Ryan is a good boy so don't give him a hard time and besides your daughter is quite smitten by him"
"Like mother like daughter" he whispered but Bonnie heard placing her hands on her hips she cocked one eyebrow up
"Excuse me? What is that suppose to mean?"
"I mean you know... Reid and you dated first and then…." Damon paused
"What?" Bonnie asked caressing his cheek worrying why he went quiet all of a sudden
"You ended up with me. Oh shit! What if she ends up with a guy like me? Or worse marry a guy like me?" Damon began to worry picturing scenarios of Kayla walking into a bar in the arms of a bad boy worst than Ryan or Reid
"Baby, I think we have a long way to worry about her getting married. If it is any consultation I quite love the guy I married and if Kayla even met a guy that comes close to the type of man I married then we'll know she'll have a happy life"
"How do you know what to say?" Damon questioned feeling calm
"Lots of years of practice where my husband worries so many times over his daughter"
"He sounds like a lucky man"
Bonnie smiled "He is and so is she" she replied. Bonnie closed her eyes once she felt Damon's lips upon hers as they both kissed in a passionate manner but was disrupted by a groan of disgust
They pulled apart to find Kayla and Ryan looking at them in disgust but smirking "I think we should start dinner" Kayla suggested couldn't help but smile knowing that the future hadn't changed one bit
Present time… 1 week later... Friday 4:45pm
*Bennett residence*
Bonnie sighed once entering her empty home. Her father had left for another business trip yesterday and wouldn't be back for a couple of weeks. She knew her father had to work twice as hard since her mother bailed out on them when she was young, but it got lonely sometimes and her Grams used to fill that loneliness. Now she had her friends and school to make her forget her empty home during the school week and Elena would always come over on the weekend but ever since she met Stefan that kind of stopped it annoyed Bonnie for awhile but she saw how happy Stefan made Elena and that was enough for Bonnie.
The Salvatore brothers sure turned Mystic Falls upside down for Bonnie. Bonnie shook her head annoyed that her mind wandered to the oldest blue-eyed Salvatore brother who she hasn't spoken to for a week. After Kayla went through the portal, Damon left the house immediately not bothering talking to her like he promised.
"He's not a vampire he's a damn chicken... that's what he is" Bonnie muttered angrily stomping up the stairs entering her bedroom she tossed her bag onto her bed and pulled out her Ipod out
"Music that's what I need" she said knowing it would calm herself and she was by herself. Placing it on her Ipod dock she pressed shuffle as 'Like it like that' by Guy Sebastian came on
Laughing she immediately fell into a dancing mood and she needed to be since it was game night tonight. Pulling her cheerleading uniform out of her closet she laid it on her bed and grabbed her panty and bra and walked into her adjoin bathroom leaving it slightly open to hear the music.
Stripping off her clothes she switched on the shower unaware that a visitor hanged outside her window.
So should I shut my mouth, And should I hide my heart Or should I let it out into the light, That you and him should be apart
She soaped herself down then ran her hands through her hair wetting it and shampooing it and began singing along with Guy Sebastian
Is he hanging on...oh, To every word you speak
Does he rub your back and play with your hair until you fall asleep
I don't think so baby!
Turning off the shower she grabbed her towel wrapping it around her tightly and stepped out of the shower cubicle. She then grabbed the second towel and wrapped it around her hair. Drying herself down she put on her black bra and panty then wrapped her towel around her again stepping out of her bathroom still singing softly
Hey-yo, do you like it that?
I'm the only one who can love you like that
Now hey-yo!
Do you like it that?
I'm the only one who can love you like that
"You sure can if you walk around like that?" Bonnie screamed in shock holding the towel even more tightly to find Damon Salvatore standing on the tree branch leading to her bedroom window
"What the hell are you doing here?" Bonnie asked angrily turning off the music
"Better question what are you doing? Seriously leaving the window unlock... anyone can get in" Damon said seriously
"Yeah but you can't so I'm ok" she said sarcastically turning away from him
"Invite me in" he stated hanging onto the branch
"No" Bonnie said strongly and picked up her cheerleading uniform and stalked back to the bathroom
"Come on witch!" he pleaded
Bonnie held the bathroom door open looking to him annoyed and angry "No, you ignored me for a whole week I'm sure you can go longer" with that she slammed the door to show how pissed she was at him
Few minutes later...
Bonnie had changed but she didn't want to leave the bathroom because that meant she had to face him which she really didn't want to at the moment
"Judgey! I know you already have gotten dressed...remember vampire hearing"
"Ugh!" Bonnie groaned looking at herself in the mirror; she took off the towel that was wrapped around her hair and placed both towels in the hamper. She took a deep breath and opened the door and walked towards her window but stood a bit far so she would be out of Damon's reach
"Invite me in please witch"
"No"
"I could fall"
"And you can just get back right back up"
"I'm sorry" Damon said silencing Bonnie. He took that as his cue to continue
"I know I said we would talk after Kayla left but she was gone and I was angry with you and myself. I didn't know how to deal with what I was feeling ok? Is that what you wanted to hear?"
Bonnie bit her lip holding back her emotions "Don't make me regret this Damon but come in" she said softly but he heard and swiftly jumped into her room.
He stepped towards her but stopped when Bonnie stepped back her arms around herself in protection "Bonnie..."
"No don't Bonnie me. Ok now you listen to me because I think I deserve that" she spoke with a shaking voice. She pictured herself being strong in front of him but too much had happen in the past days that was hard to ignore her feelings for him.
Damon nodded solemnly and sat on her bed. Taking a deep breath she began "The week you didn't speak to me and that really made me upset..."
"I'm sor..." Damon didn't finish his sentence once Bonnie held her finger up to silence him
"Still talking Damon" he quickly shut his mouth and listened
"I'm not that girl Damon. I'm the independent one, the one that never really needed a guy to make her feel better or be the one there to help her not feel self-conscious of herself; that's all Elena and Caroline. I've never really depended on anyone except Caleb and the guys but they live in Ipswich but here in Mystic Falls I've always been let down; the last person I trusted everything in my life was my Grams and now she's gone it just has been me and I began to accept that" Damon watched Bonnie in the midst of her speech letting it all out as his head went from right to left with Bonnie's pace then she paused to look at him
"Then you happened. I don't know how or even when it happened but it happened. I started to become dependent on you maybe not completely but in the back of my mind I knew you would always be there to save me and I hate it" Bonnie finished with tears in her eyes
Damon stood up silently and walking towards her as she stood still and continued her rant "I hate that you're different so you can understand how I feel. I hate that you drive me insane but you can make me laugh. I hate that you have this hard shell around your emotions but you can be so caring towards me. I hate that you're a vampire the very creatures I was taught to be against but I'm not because I know that you will protect me" she looked up to Damon who now stood in front of her in silence. Tears fell from her green orbs as she felt his fingers brush them away and held onto her face
She closed her eyes from his touch and spoke softly still in a quivering tone "I hate that you're the reason I'm a mess but deep inside I know you can save me. And I hate that it was only a week... but I missed you." she ended quietly opening her eyes to be met with darken blue eyes
"I'm not sorry" he replied watching Bonnie's eyes widen in hurt and pull away but his grip around her face stopped her.
Caressing her cheek he looked deep into the witches' eyes, "I'm not sorry that I'm different because it makes me understand you. I'm not sorry that I drive you insane because that's one of my many talents to drive everyone insane."
Bonnie chuckled tearfully at Damon causing him to smile "I drive you insane because it's a bonus to hear that laugh of yours. I'm not sorry that I switch off my emotions because being with you teaches me that it's ok to love again and it's ok to make these corny cheesy Stefan speeches to you. I'm sure as hell not sorry that I'm a vampire because I know I can kill anything that tries to harm you"
He placed a chaste kiss on Bonnie's forehead causing an involuntarily shiver from her "I am sorry though. I'm sorry that I made you this mess but it makes me want to save you and protect you from everyone. I'm sorry that I didn't talk to you for a week but I'm here now and not going anywhere. I missed you too; some nights I just wanted crawl through your window and crawl into bed with you and hold you. I hate that I made you cry but I love that I can be here and wipe those tears away" he brushed away the leftover tears upon Bonnie's face
"I'm here and I'm not going anywhere" he said to her seriously brushing a strand of Bonnie's brown hair behind one ear
"You promise" she whispered scared
"I promise" he whispered back leaning now his lips so close to hers. Bonnie took a deep breath from the intensity of this moment hearing him whisper again
"I promise" then she felt his lips upon hers.
AN: *holds back tears* I hope you guys enjoyed this epilogue I kind of wanted it to keep it simple but not do the whole cliche they fall in love straight away so of just the beginning of the Bamon relationship.
Now onto other related news... there are two stories I'm working on:
1./Bonnie and Tyler are best friends a lot tighter than Bonnie and Elena and he's very protective of her. Not many know of Bonnie's close friendship with Tyler. I'm going to go with the episodes but twisting to my AU due to Tyler and Bonnie's friendship and of course there will be Bamon romance! It will be a slow building one ;)... I started it when 2x04 aired but it's going to be a Tonnie friendship. I was inspired by Kat Graham saying that we don't really know much about Bonnie's family and I know recently we found out that her mother bailed and her dad isn't home as much but in the story I'm having her mum there but her dad to be a really mean guy [think Dan Scott from One Tree Hill...that kind of mean].
2./I've also almost finished a Bamon one-shot... was inspired by Smallville 10x04 "Homecoming" episode. So check that ep out if you want to or not
Hopefully I'll have these stories up next week or the week after if not it's probably cause I should focus on my other fanfic but other than that I say that's it!
