Radical Times – Chapter 12
Yippee Bonnie thought. No alarm clock this morning. Although they were on holiday they had been up early for the drive here and then up early for the estate agent, today was all about them. Bonnie and Damon enjoying the day. It seemed a long time since they had the day to do what they wanted. There had been school, parents, houses and travel plan. But today was just them. Bonnie started to stretch which was difficult with a sexy sound asleep vampire holding you securely to him.
"Cara, go back to sleep, it's early" a sleepy voice said into her hair. Bonnie thought that sounded like good advice so she turned in Damon's embrace kissed the tip of his nose and then snuggled down with her head buried in Damon's chest.
An hour later Bonnie and Damon were still in the same position, now thought Bonnie was fully awake. Her body needed food. She was surprised that Damon couldn't hear her tummy making all the strange noises that it was. Bonnie felt Damon shift in the bed; he kissed the top of her head.
"Morning beautiful, I can hear that you need breakfast" Damon kissed her again and reached for the phone, he ordered a full breakfast and a pot of coffee. He then cuddled up to Bonnie again.
"Cara, what would you like to do today?" Damon asked as Bonnie smiled up at him. Her pink lips just looked so kissable, why should he deny himself. He lent in and captured her lips. The intensity that the kiss started with increased. Damon found his hands wondering up the t shirt that she was wearing (another one of his) his cool hands on her warm skin. Bonnie gasped at the cool touch and lent into Damon's hands, as she gasped Damon depended the kiss. It was getting harder for him to control the situation. Especially as Bonnie didn't want control, she wanted to abandon everything to Damon and enjoy their bodies tangling. There was a loud knock at the door and a shout of room service. Damon was slightly relieved. He wanted to stick to the original plan and wait but Bonnie was being a minx and trying everything that she could think of to get him to break his resolve. He was out of bed and at the door letting the guy in. The waiter pushed in the breakfast and saw Bonnie in the open door of the bedroom. No wonder the guy took a while to answer the waiter thought as Bonnie was there with her red curls across the white pillow looking liked a goddess who was about to ravage a man. The waiter couldn't help the carnal thoughts that were going through his mind. What he wouldn't give to have an hour with a woman like that. Damon could read the waiters thought and was struggling to keep control. Damon almost growled and Bonnie could sense the change in Damon's mood.
"I have it from here" Damon said through a clenched jaw, the waiter snapped out of his trance and walked towards the door. He waited for a tip. Damon leaned forward and said to the waiter.
"I'll give you a tip; if you ever look at my girlfriend like that again I will rip you hear t out"
With that Damon closed the door and walked to the bedroom to fetch Bonnie.
"He's gone; you can come and have your breakfast." Bonnie came out of the bedroom with a hotel bathrobe around her, a look Damon definitely didn't like!
"Cara, you can take the bathrobe off, he is gone"
"It just felt horrible the way he looked at me" Damon loosened the robe and gently slide it off her shoulders kissing every part of skin that he uncovered.
"You should never feel ashamed. You can't blame him for looking at such a beautiful sight. But you are mine, and I will always look out for you." He kissed her lips. Turned her around patted her bottom "now eat we have a busy day"
Bonnie was dressed in three quarter jeans, a gipsy top, flats and a large handbag. Damon was in his regulation black t shirt and jeans with black boots. He grabbed his wallet and headed for the door. Bonnie had the room measurements for the house in case they saw anything that they might want for the new house. Damon informed the concierge that they would be receiving some papers and left his mobile number to they could contact him when they arrived. Bonnie and Damon headed out for the day. Mid afternoon Damon's phone rang and Damon was informed that the papers had arrived. Bonnie and Damon head back to the hotel. In the room they looked through the papers and Damon told Bonnie where they need to sign. They both signed and then Damon arranged for the courier to take them back to the office. Then Damon and Bonnie headed out again. They had finally come to a decision about the sofa, and they had brought all the kitchen appliances but they couldn't find a bed!
"Damon can we look when we get back for a bed?"
"If that's what you want Cara, you know that this is all about what you want"
"You keep saying that Damon but it is your home as well"
"I know, I just want you to be happy" Damon said and kissed there entwined hands.
"I know you do sweetheart, can we head back to the hotel. I am shattered after walking around all day, maybe we can have a light snack and then head to bed early we have a long journey tomorrow"
Damon smiled indulgently at Bonnie. "Of course we can, why didn't you tell me earlier that you were tired?"
"I knew you would worry" Bonnie said and stopped them in the street. She stood on her toes and kissed him and then walked on dragging him behind her.
They got back to the hotel and Damon ran Bonnie a bath while he asked the hotel if they could fit them in the restaurant early. Bonnie came out of the bathroom in a simple summer dress and high sandals, very light makeup and her hair down.
"Bonnie you take my breath away every time" Damon kissed her.
Bonnie giggled" come on get a move on"
Damon was ready in 10minutes and they were on their way down to the restaurant.
Damon and Bonnie were shown to their table. There waiter was the same one that had delivered breakfast and Damon could tell he was really worried but the poor waiter kept up a good front. Bonnie smiled and ordered the salad. Damon just had a glass of wine. He would have to feed tonight; this diet was doing him no good.
After Dinner Damon and Bonnie headed up for an early night. Bonnie and Damon cuddled up together and Bonnie was asleep in minutes. Not a surprise thought Damon she had barely been able to stay awake during dinner. He forgot sometimes that she was so fragile and although being a witch she was still human.
He snuck out and climbed out on the balcony, changed into crow form and headed for his midnight snack. Damon was nearly back to the room when he heard Bonnie scream. Damon increased his speed and came back in through the window. Somebody was in there room and had their hands moving towards Bonnie. Damon threw the person across the room the person hit the wall and was knocked out cold. Bonnie was still screaming Damon called the hotel security and went to hold Bonnie and calm her down. The guy was lucky that Damon didn't kill him; Damon had known that he couldn't kill the man but he should off for scaring Bonnie. She was still shaking and crying when hotel security had arrived. It turned out that the waiter had seen Bonnie's necklace and had decided that he could get it. The man was wanted for several similar crimes in other hotels in the area. Bonnie was still shaking in his arms. Damon was speaking in soft tones and holding tightly they fell asleep with Damon promising never to leave her side again.
They got up early the next morning and Damon saw that Bonnie wasn't wearing the necklace.
"Bonnie, you don't have your necklace on?"
"Damon it's so valuable I'm worried about what happened last night. I was so frightened when you weren't there"
Damon held her face gently in his hands. "I promise I will tell you when I am going hunting and I will never leave you vulnerable like that again. I thought that you would be safe. Now put the necklace back on. Jewellery is for wearing." Damon and Bonnie kissed as Damon put the necklace back around Bonnie's neck.
They check out of the hotel and as Damon helped Bonnie slide into the passenger seat he thought about the next part of the journey. They went to the airport and Damon took control and booked them in. They went through security and into the first class lounge Bonnie was surprised. Damon whispered in Bonnie's ear. "Only the best for you cara" Bonnie smiled up and they sat down and waited for their flight.
The flight was called and Bonnie looked at Damon.
"Surprise cara, I thought we might want a few days rest so I thought we could explore Paris"
Ok Thank you all for reading, I have added the destination of Paris as well as I have just had a surprise weekend there and I fell in love with the city. So it thought Damon would like to take Bonnie there. I know that this is shorter than normal but I will make up for it next time I promise.
