So this is it! Time to say good bye to this story. I am a bit stuck for ideas for a new one but I am sure that some more fluff will come to mind. I have really enjoyed using LJ Smith's Characters; I am looking forward to her next book. I have been touched by your reviews and I am happy that so many of you have taken the time to read, review and add this to their favourites. Enjoy Bonnie and Damon in Venice. I think that you have guessed now that I tend to write about cities that I love and have spent some time in, the other thing that you may have guessed is that I am a hopeless romantic and I would hate to be any other way.
Radical Times – Chapter 15 Part 2
Though it was summer in Venice the evening breeze and the high ceilings made the room chilly. Damon was glad that he had asked Giuseppe to light the fire. Damon rested his feet on the table in front of him as Bonnie curled into his side. This was what life was meant to be like, for once Damon wished that he was not a vampire and that he could grow old with Bonnie. They still had discussed the turning of Bonnie, yes there had been brief discussions but he needed to fill Bonnie in on all of it, but for now they were here wrapped in each other physically and mentally. Connected in a way that Damon had never thought was possible. Yes he had seen Stefan and Elena but he never thought that he deserved it; Bonnie had changed all that she made him feel that he was entitled to happiness to.
Damon had talked to Giuseppe and Maria and now he was going to share the story of them all with Bonnie, it was time.
"Cara, I have talked to Giuseppe and Maria and they have allowed me to tell you there story, you already know about Stefan and me but I think you need to know about Giuseppe and Maria as well and you will then understand everything about us." Damon kissed Bonnie on her soft curls and Bonnie nodded for him to continue.
"Maria was my nurse when I was born, my mother was very fragile and took a risk having one child, so my Father employed Maria, she was young and beautiful, Giuseppe was continuing his family tradition and also working for us by then at the time he was a stable lad. Giuseppe saw Maria and that was it he knew that there would never be another woman for him, they fell in love and got married. They lived in a cottage on the estate. Maria is a wonderful caring woman and when my mother was pregnant with Stefan Maria took a much more active role in my life than she had before, she became a second mother. When Stefan was born she looked at him and fell in love with him to. She talked to Giuseppe and decided that she could never love two children as much as us. So they never had children and Maria devoted her life to Giuseppe, Stefan and I. Her 3 boys. When my mother died a couple of weeks after having Stefan, Maria was devastated but took over our care. Giuseppe and Maria made our childhood such fun. We spent all our time out of lessons with them. They were more like parents to us. When Katherine arrived Maria didn't like her but she let us get on with it thinking she had taught us brothers to love each other and that would win over Katherine. She was wrong. Then Maria went missing we were distraught. The 3 off us searched everywhere and we couldn't find her. 3 days later she wondered in to the garden from the woods. Covered in blood. I have never been so afraid of losing anyone as I was the moment I saw Maria. Giuseppe carried her to their house and Stefan sent one of the servants to get a doctor. Animal attack was what the doctor said. That there was a good chance with the amount of blood that she had lost and the damage to her neck that she would die within the next few hours. We stayed with her all of her boys holding her hand, waiting for her to be ok. I talked Giuseppe into letting us move her into the main house where we could have people running around for us so we did not leave her side. I will never forget that feeling of utter desolation. My heart had been ripped out. As Giuseppe carried Maria to the house with Stefan and I walking either side of him we saw Katherine she took Stefan to one side as she knew that I was the one with the temper. She asked him what we thought we were doing bringing a mere servant into the house to die, Stefan lost it and nearly hit her it was only Giuseppe's soft words that reminded Stefan that Maria didn't bring him up like that. Stefan calmed down and explained to Katherine that we loved Maria like our mother and we couldn't bear to lose her. Katherine changed in an instant and insisted that we take Maria to her rooms and that her servant could help as she was a trained nurse. We didn't realise what we were doing and we took Maria to Katherine's room. Katherine ushered us out and we thought that it was just to get Maria comfortable. We now know that it was so Katherine could complete Maria's transformation. She hadn't realised when she attacked Maria that Maria was so important to us and she saw the opportunity that if Maria was changed that it would be easier to change Stefan and I. When the transformation was complete Maria decided not to tell Stefan and me but she of course told Giuseppe, they were husband and wife they had never had any secrets between them. That night Giuseppe snuck into the house and went to see Katherine. He asked her to change him as he couldn't be without Maria. Katherine was only too pleased to change him. A meal offered and she didn't have to go hunting also she knew again how much more likely Stefan and I were likely to agree to be changed if we had Maria and Giuseppe. Katherine didn't realise that Maria and Giuseppe's love for us meant they would never tell us and that they would do everything to discourage us, in the end Katherine still changed us and when our father put us in the family tome it was Giuseppe and Maria that got us out and taught us to be Vampires. I wanted revenge and set out on my destructive path that you know about, but Maria and Giuseppe's love for us has never wavered. Maria always knew that Stefan and I would find our true loves. Mine just happens to be a beautiful red headed witch that can give me a run for my money." Damon tilted Bonnie's face up to his and gently kissed her lips. As his lips touched hers he tasted the salty tears that had run down her cheeks. He pulled her onto his lap and put his arms around her.
"Cara what is wrong?" Damon asked.
"That woman destroyed so many lives how could you have ever have loved her?"
"I never loved her, I thought I did but I didn't know or understand love until I met you." Damon kissed Bonnie's lips again and Bonnie wrapped her arms around Damon. The kiss deepened and Bonnie felt Damon's cool hand slide under her purple top, his hand found the clasp of her bra, he flicked it open, Bonnie gently moaned into Damon's mouth. He couldn't remember when just a kiss had turned him on so much. A cough interrupted them and Bonnie's face blushed, Maria and Giuseppe were stood at the door. Bonnie jumped up and flung herself at both of them crying and saying sorry Damon decided that he would stay sat on the sofa it was easier to hide certain things that way though Giuseppe did wink at him.
"What are you sorry for?" Maria asked Bonnie.
"All that you both had to go through"
Maria smiled. "I got something that now you and Damon and Stefan and Elena will have an eternity with the person I love, I got extra though because I also got my two boys's to spend eternity with two. Most vampires never have that, everybody around them grows old and dies or they have to leave them. I have never had that even Katherine never got to have what I have, she had an eternity on loneliness and I have an eternity of love with my 3 boys, and now I have two girls finally! 500 years it took them to find me two daughters – in – laws. It is a good job they have had eternity goodness knows what I would have ended up with otherwise!" Maria smiled and kissed Bonnie's cheek.
"Giuseppe and I are now going to bed. You two will be sleeping in your correct rooms! Damon I will hear you if you try to sneak into Bonnie's" Maria said wagging her finger at Damon.
Damon smiled" Good night Bonnie and I are going to sit by the fire a while longer before you banish us" Maria walked over kissed Damon on the head and Bonnie on the cheek before they both left hand in hand for the night.
Bonnie walked around the sofa and Damon grabbed her hand and pulled her onto his lap. Bonnie giggled as she fell into his lap and wrapped her arms around him. "Cara do you think that you will still love me that much in 500 years" Damon asked now unsure of himself.
"Damon I can't wait to spend a 1000 years with you and I will love you more than I do today if that's possible"
Damon kissed Bonnie as he held her tight to his body. He hoped everything that he had planned was going to be ok. Damon pulled apart from Bonnie and Bonnie yawned. It was now past 1am and she was shattered.
"I'll take you to your room Cara" Damon suggested.
"Please can we sit here just a while long" Bonnie said with another big yawn.
"Ok 5 more minutes then to bed with you madam" and Damon made them comfortable on the sofa.
The next thing Maria is shouting Damon and Bonnie begin to moved both being stiff from sleeping on the sofa.
"You never went to be at all! You thought that this would be a way around my rules" Maria screeched
" Oh Maria, we are so sorry, I just wanted 5 more minutes in Damon's arms before I went to be. I am so sorry we must have fallen asleep" Bonnie said very quickly.
"It's ok, I can see you are both still dressed in last night's clothes, Damon I see you are still not a morning person" Maria turned to Bonnie. "Always grumpy as a baby, never liked been woken up and the tantrums that we had when he was growing up!" Maria through her hands in the air and walked off muttering in Italian. Giuseppe then stuck his head round the door.
"She will be fine, always one for the drama! Do you need the boat today Damon?"
"No thanks Giuseppe we are going to be doing a lot of walking today"
"Ok, I am going to take it in for a service then, see you later"
Bonnie looked at Damon "a lot of walking?"
Damon smiled kissed Bonnie on the lips and replied with the special Damon smirk. "Good morning to you to, and yes a lot of walking"
Damon needed to keep Bonnie out of the Palazzo for the day so Maria and Giuseppe could put his plans into action. Damon took Bonnie in his arms. Lifting her up Bonnie wrapped her legs around Damon as she buried he face in his neck and in haled the scent that is so Damon. She felt Damon walk with her in his arms. She placed small feather like kisses along Damon's neck and tightened her legs around him pushing her core towards Damon. Damon moaned as he tried to walk on long towards Bonnie's bedroom but the actions that the little witch was doing were making it very difficult his trousers were getting tighter with every step as Bonnie's body bounced gently against a part of his anatomy with every move. Damon moaned he wanted Bonnie, he wanted her naked and he wanted to be buried in her forever.
"Cara, you have to stop that otherwise Maria is going to be telling us off "
Bonnie giggled and captured his lips with hers. Damon responded with stopping and pressing her against the nearest wall and pushing his arousal into her core. Bonnie's head went back exposing the delicate column of her neck. Damon explored the expanse of alabaster skin with the veins gently pumping just under the surface. Damon's eyes started to change and his canines elongated. Bonnie's tongue found Damon's canines and she deliberately moved her tongue over his canines and then she gently sucked them. Damon stated to undress Bonnie and she was undoing the buttons on his shirt. Her lips moved to his chest and her hands moved to the belt of his trousers. Damon realised that they were about go too far and he withdrew.
"Cara, I promise just give me one more night and then I promise that I will make you mine and you will be screaming my name. Can you wait one more night please? And I promise it will be worth it."
Bonnie nodded as her breathing was to ragged to answer. Damon kissed her on her hair and took her to her room. Bonnie's breathing had nearly returned to normal by the time that they returned to her room. "Get ready and we will enjoy our day out. Casanova is back in town for a few days maybe we will run into him" Damon winked and kissed her as he closed the door. Shouting through the door as he left "20 minutes till breakfast"
20 minutes later Damon was outside Bonnie's door to take her to breakfast. They were going casual today and having breakfast in the kitchen; Maria was in the kitchen and had already made espresso and fresh brioche and fresh herb bread. Bonnie was dressed in a simple black maxi dress and gold flip flops. Her hobo bag was again full with everything that she would need for today. After breakfast Damon bent to pick up Bonnie's bag so they could head out
"Jezz Cara what do you have in here?"
"Just my normal bits and bobs" answers Bonnie sweetly Damon rolled his eyes and Maria laughed.
"Cara, are you sure that you need to carry all this around all day? It weights so much!"
"Sweetheart it weighs no more than normal"
Damon was stunned, his little bird normally carried this much weight around with her!
They left the Palazzo and headed to the first place on Bonnie's list. They headed down Ruga di Orefici crossed the Ponte del Rialto and headed through the little side streets and past the boutiques and glass towards St marks Square. Bonnie stood in wonder as she looked around taking in the Basillica di San Marco, The Campanile and the Palazzo Ducale; Damon was explaining that the two columns of Venice's two patrons, one with the lion of St Mark with his book open representing peace. It was said if the book was closed that the venetians are at war. Saint Teodoro of Amasea was on top of the other column it was considered the gate way to the city and was where they used to hang people. There used to be a 3rd column but that fell in to the lagoon and was never pulled out. Damon and Bonnie went into the Basillica di San Marco; Bonnie had brought a scarf with her to cover her head and shoulders. They walked around the Basillica, Bonnie was amazed at the gold leaf and marble interior. Damon took her to see the to see the Byzantine altarpiece that was gold and studded with gems. Damon then took her to see the Triumphal Quadriga. The four horses of St Marks. The originals were in the museo Marciano as they were now so fragile having being cast in the 2nd century AD. The horses were stolen buy Napoleon and put on the top of Arc de Triomphe. They were returned to the Venetians after the battle of Waterloo. After they had seen the originals and the replicas out on the top of the Basillica, Damon looked at his watch and decided to take Bonnie for lunch. They went to a small family owned restaurant just of the Palazzo and had a long lunch. Damon then took Bonnie back to the square and they headed to the Campanile, they took the lift up and Bonnie was amazed by the view. She was taking tones of photos. Damon was watching her, she was so excited and the joy that she felt was bringing Damon more pleasure that she realized. After the incredible views from the top of the campanile Damon did what he liked to do best. He took Bonnie shopping in the exclusive shops around St Marks square. Bonnie laughed at Damon as every time she stopped to look at something Damon offered to buy it for her. After some window shopping Bonnie aloud Damon to buy her one gift as he was sulking that she hadn't let him buy anything yet. A pair of small diamond studs was what she let him buy; they would go with her dress for dinner that night. She needed something plain to go with the dress. They stopped for coffee and as the sun was starting to set they headed back to the Salvatore Palazzo. They started to cross the Ponte del Rialto stopping in the middle to watch the oranges and reds of the setting sun hitting the water. Bonnie was leaning on the side and Damon was behind her his arms either side of her gently resting his chin on her shoulder. Bonnie didn't think anything could be as romantic as this.
Damon whispered in her ear "Marry me Bonnie" she laughed. "Damon you asked me the other day and I already said yes" "No Bonnie, Marry me tomorrow, here in Venice in the Palazzo at sunset"
Tears sprung to Bonnie's eyes, could this man be any more romantic. "Yes, I can't think of anything better" she kissed him and he kissed her back. "24 hours and you will be Mrs Salvatore" smiled Damon. "Even better Mrs Damon Salvatore" said Bonnie. They walked back hand in hand though Damon did send a quick text to Maria to let her know the plans were going ahead and Bonnie had said yes.
As they arrived back at the Palazzo Maria suggested that they have a drink before they get ready for Dinner. Bonnie went into the sitting room and was surprised to find Stefan, Elena, Meredith, Matt, Tony and Mary. After a lot of shrieking hugs and kisses Damon had some explaining to do.
"When you said yes in Paris. I called everyone and told them that I wanted us to get married here and would they come. I didn't know if you would agree so this was either going to be a visits from friends or a wedding party, but I'm glad it's going to be the latter" Damon kissed Bonnie. "Nearly all the arrangements are made Giuseppe and Maria have been working overtime to get everything ready for us, I thought that you would like to have your friends with you when you got married"
"But I have so much to do, oh Damon I don't even have the dress"
"Go look in your bedroom, cara if you don't like it we can get a new one tomorrow. You girls have all day to shop tomorrow and do whatever you like"
Bonnie turned to Damon "what about mum and dad. I have to tell them"
"Mary has already filled them in and they will be watching by the web cam. Your dad has hurt his foot, nothing bad before you worry he was decorating and fell. But he couldn't travel. So he is disappointed but as he said he can give at least one daughter away still and I promise we will have a big party when we get home and another blessing if you want"
Bonnie didn't say anything just flung herself at Damon and laughed as he spun her around. Their friend in the room could see that this was real for both of them and any doubts they had were void. These two wanted this and were in love with one another. Bonnie had just one more question to ask. She turned around and faced her friends. "Would you please give the bride away Tone?"
The big tattooed biker had a tear in his eye as he spoke "of course bonbon" and then their she was buried in the tattooist arms. She gently whispered " see I knew it would empower me" he kissed her cheek " you didn't need that to do it you needed to find yourself to do that and she was there all along" Damon reached behind her and whispered in his ear. "He's right you always were an amazingly strong and good person Bonnie, the only person who didn't know was you"
The others knew Mary but were not sure about Mary's boyfriend but obviously they get to know him and Bonnie thought that he was pretty special. As they all went to get ready for dinner Damon walked Bonnie to her room. She had to laugh to herself both Stefan and Elena and Mary and Tony had to abide by Maria's rules and neither couple was taking the sleep in separate rooms well. Stefan had tried to argue with Maria but he knew when he was done for and gave in finally. As Bonnie went into her room she was greeted by her wedding dress laid out on her bed.
"My dream" Bonnie said quietly "this is the dress from the dream I had in Paris the night we got engaged"
Damon looked at Bonnie stunned. "Bonnie I dreamed that night of our wedding as well and this was the dress that you were wearing. I emailed a pitcher to Maria that I drew from memory to get it made."
"Sweetheart I think we shared a premonition that night" and Bonnie and Damon felt closer than ever.
Damon left Bonnie to go to his own room and get ready. An hour later he went to get Bonnie to escort her to Dinner. When Bonnie opened her bed room door Damon was stunned Bonnie looked radiant, her hair was pinned up in the clip that Mrs Flowers had given her and she had her diamond studs in that Damon had brought that afternoon her engagement ring that she had shown to her friends earlier on and his mother's necklace. But the dress if Damon struggled to keep from taking her right there and then. I was a long dress to the floor and was in a beautiful ruby red, the material hung in Grecian style folds from her shoulders, nipped in at the waist. The neck line plunged until you could almost see her belly button. The back was the same. The skirt had a long split up one leg and Damon could see a glimpse Bonnie's toned alabaster thigh through the split when she walked. If he still had a beating heart it would have stopped for this. Bonnie had finished the outfit with a pair of Laboutin sandals that she had picked up in Paris. Damon just stared. Bonnie nudged him. "Are we going to dinner?"
"Bonnie you look amazing. I love you Cara more than anything and thank you for agreeing to marry me" Damon kissed her on her cheek not wanting to spoil her makeup. Bonnie smiled at him and they headed down to Dinner.
Drinks were served before dinner in the lounge. All the women there looked beautiful but Damon only had eyes for Bonnie. She was laughing and joking with Tony and Elena, Damon was watching her as Stefan came to stand beside him. "You are a very lucky man Damon" "I know little brother; I have been meaning to talk to you. Would you be my best man tomorrow?" I would be honoured brother"
That was all they had to say to bring 500 years of animosity to an end. Maria thanked god for Bonnie. The little red head had managed to achieve something that she hadn't in 500 years and she would always love Bonnie for that.
As they went through to Dinner they walked though arm in arm the 4 couples Bonnie and Damon first followed by Stefan and Elena then Mary and Tony and Meredith and Matt last. All of a sudden Elena let out a little shriek "Bonnie you have a tattoo" at this statement Bonnie stopped and Tony looked guilty, so busted and Mary was going to kill him!
Bonnie looked around and said "I will explain at Dinner and Mary don't have that look! Don't blame Tony!"
Dinner went well and Damon and Bonnie told there story from day one and the tattoo till today and Damon asking her to marry him again today and all the surprises. All the girls were bowled over by the romance and the guys were worried how they were going to top that if they could!
The evening came to an end and the ladies were all escorted to their rooms. Damon had stayed in Bonnie's with Maria's permission until she fell asleep. Now Maria knew about the nightmares she was worried about Bonnie. Maria had also taken a liking to Elena but Bonnie was her favourite. She had ended the boy's feud by falling in love with Damon that had always been what he needed in life love.
The boys meet back in the sitting room for cigars and brandy.
"What are we going to do now" Tony asked "you have given us a hell of an act to follow; I hate to think what Mary will expect from me now!"
"I know how you feel" agreed Stefan.
Damon smiled "it's easy when you're in love"
They discussed many things that night and retired late too their rooms, Damon and Tony's rooms were in the same part of the house. Damon walked with Tony down the corridor, "Tony you know you said about a tattoo. I will pay you a visit when Bonnie and I get back is that ok?"
"You know what you want? I can get the art work ready for when you come in. Don't worry about an appointment just turn up and I'll fit you in as you are going to be my brother in law now"
"Thanks Tony I am going to have a bird over my heart"
(Tony and Mary had been let into the secret of the vampires; Mary already knew about witches, it had just skipped her)
"Good choice, I will hazard a guess that it represent Bonbon"
"Yea" Damon said good night as they reached Tony's room and headed to his. The biker had a major weakness McCullough women and he was starting to think that it was his weakness to.
The morning couldn't come quick enough for Bonnie. She bounded out of bed put her robe down and rushed to see Maria. She knocked on the other girl's doors on the way down. She arrived in the kitchen and flung her arms around Maria's neck and kissed her cheek. "Hi Mum" Bonnie said she had asked Maria and Giuseppe if that was ok and they had been delighted. Because of Damon falling in love they had inherited a whole new family and a new arrival on the way! Maria kissed Bonnie back and they moved to sit and talk over coffee. Mary came in next hugged Maria and went to get water. Maria smiled. " I got decafe for you" Mary smiled a secret smile and Bonnie said " since when has the queen of the coffee pot switched to decafe and water" Mary smiled back " Since she found out you were going to be an aunt "Bonnie sat stunned for less than a second and then started to whop and jump up and down. Maria laughed at the two sisters jumping up and down like a pair of two year olds. "When did you find out? Why didn't you tell me before?" "I haven't told Tony yet and Maria told me yesterday, she can hear two heart beats. She is more reliable than any test and she has been a nanny for 500 years!"
At that moment Tony came in and Maria sat him down with a coffee and a brandy. "Thank you Maria but it's 8 in the morning why do I need a brandy?" Tony looked puzzled
"I'm pregnant" Mary blurted out. Tony looked at the three women drank the brandy and then hugged Mary. "I'm so happy" and then he was being hugged by all three women. Damon walked in still not a wake in a black silk robe black silk Pj's and bed head. Bonnie had never seen anything so sexy. He had left the top of the Pj's off and a flash of white chest and six pack Bonnie was finding it difficult to breath.
"Can anyone join in this group hug? Damon asked and then the three women all spoke at the same time as Bonnie hugged Damon. He looked puzzled and looked at Tony
"Is this is what our lives are going to be like married to McCullough women?" Damon asked
"Apparently it's going to get worse, Marys pregnant"
The rest of the gang joined them a little while later when they had heard all the commotion. Maria had made fresh breakfast and the girls were planning there day. The boys were going to take the boat out and have some fun on the water. The girls were just going to be spending a lot of money. They had gotten booked in for hair appointments, nail appointments facials, massages, and wraps all manner of things that Damon didn't want to know about. Then there were further arrangements to be finalised. The boys had to sort out suits that matched the girl's instructions to the letter, then there were the flowers the menu had been sorted out by Maria and Giuseppe was already at the market picking up fresh ingredients. Bonnie also had to get a wedding ring for Damon. Shoes for the girls and then they had to sort out the some old, something new, something borrowed and something blue!
The breakfast table was covered in paper and magazines that the girls had picked up yesterday, Maria was also joining in, and she was going to enjoy this. The men beat a hasty retreat with quick kisses for the girls and headed to the showers.
After escaping the madness the boys headed out. The girls then started getting ready for the evening. The first stop was the jewellery shop for Damon's ring. Bonnie chose a simple platinum band as on the other hand he wore his ornate ring. She had it engraved with just one word forever and their initials and the date. It would be ready at 4pm. The rest of the day was spent at the parlour. The four girls having the time of their lives laughing and drinking champagne. Mary was drinking fruit juice and Bonnie was having lots of water. She didn't want to be drunk for her wedding or wedding night. She suddenly chocked on her champagne. Her wedding night, this was the night that Damon would truly claim her mind body and soul. They three girls looked at Bonnie and she just blushed, the talk turned to the wedding night and Bonnie explained that her and Damon still hadn't made love. There were plenty of teasing but they were reassuring and let her know that it would be uncomfortable but in a good way.
They went back at 4pm and collect the ring, Giuseppe met them with the boat so that they didn't have to carry everything back, Giuseppe was just relived that the boat didn't sink with the weight of it all!
After 5 trips from the boat with shopping bags Giuseppe was exhausted. How could they buy so much in such a short time!
They all started to get ready as the wedding started at sunset. Bonnie put on her sexy underwear and the applied the perfume that Mrs Flowers had sent her with Mary. On the tag it said something new with a kiss. Mrs Flower's new blend of perfume suited Bonnie so well that she thought Mrs Flowers might have made it just for her. Her hair hung loose in vibrant red curls and she had diamonds woven in to it. The dress fitted her perfectly and Maria helped her into it. She had decided to not have any bridesmaids or maids of honour. Maria then brought out a small red leather jewellery box.
"This belonged to the boy's mother. She left it to me when she died so that I could pass it on to the boy's brides, she didn't trust their father not to give all her jewellery to his next wife when she died. So here this is you something borrowed for today and this can also count for your something old."
Bonnie opened the box to find a beautiful diamond tiara in the box. Maria fitted it on to her hair and she had tears in her eyes. "Damon's mother would be so please to see this day, she would love you so much Bonnie, you are a very special woman"
Bonnie hugged Maria trying hard not to cry. There was a gentle knock at the door and Tony entered looking very smart in his grey suit with sapphire blue tie and white shirt. Bonnie gave him her killer watt smile and he smiled back.
"You've all grown up Bonbon, you look stunning. Damon is a very lucky man"
"I'm a very lucky woman Tony. Thank you for doing this"
"I'm honoured; my baby sister is getting married. You ready?"
"I don't have my something blue" Bonnie said and Tony smiled.
"I'll help you out there" he handed Bonnie a box and when she opened it she laughed. Tony had brought her a blue garter for her stocking. Maria help Bonnie put it on after she had made Tony leave the room. Maria let him back in and went to take her place next to Giuseppe waiting for Bonnie to make her entrance. She smiled at Damon kissed him and told him in no uncertain terms what she would do to him if he ever hurt Bonnie. The photographer was going mad, you never see so many beautiful people together in a room normally, and even famous people don't look this good close up and without the touch ups!
The string quartet started to play the bridal match and Bonnie entered on Tony's arm. Damon couldn't take his eyes of the vision in white that was on her way to be his bride. Bonnie focused on Damon and when she got to him Tony passed Damon her hand and kissed her on both cheeks and stepped back.
On the web cam Mr and Mrs McCullough and Mrs Flowers who they had invited over to watch with them sat in their wedding outfits with glasses of champagne watching the ceremony. The wedding Party could she them as well and Bonnie and Damon smiled at the three the other side of the world.
The ceremony went by in a flash. Bonnie was glad that somebody had recorded it so she would know what went on! Some of Damon and Stefan's vampire friend had also made an appearance and were enjoying the party. Damon and Bonnie made their way around all their guests on extremely handsome Italian man kissed Bonnie's hand " Salvatore you are a very lucky man, where did you find this beauty? "
"Why there are no more like her nothing as beautiful or unique"
"So I will have to steal her from you"
"You will never manage it Casanova"
Bonnie gasped at the mention of the man's name and both Vampires laughed.
"I would like to try Mrs Salvatore but I know I would fail with you." He smiled kissed her hand again and moved on to try another woman
Soon it was over and those who were staying the night headed to bed and other guests grabbed water taxi's to head to the next party.
Maria smiled at Bonnie. "You are married now so I have moved your things into a different bedroom so you and Damon can be together. The way he has been looking at you the last few days I think that you will have very little sleep tonight!"
Bonnie blushed and Maria and Giuseppe bid them good night.
Damon took Bonnie's hand and led her to the bedroom that would now be there's every time that they stayed at the Palazzo.
The room was a dimly lit with candles, the scent of lavender and Jasmine filled the room. The walls were of a deep red and the heavy velvet curtains that hung at the window's and around the carved four poster bed were again of a deep rich red. Damon still held on gently to Bonnie's hand as she stood in the middle of the room her white dress in contrast to the deep dark colours that surrounded her in the opulent room. Damon gently pulled Bonnie to him and turned her around to face him.
"Mrs Salvatore" Damon said as he gently kissed her lips. Bonnie blushed and broke into a wide smile
"Mr Salvatore" she said shyly and she stood on tip toes to kiss Damon's lips.
Damon's arms snaked around Bonnie's waist as he gently depend the kiss. Bonnie had waited for this moment and she responded with a gentle moan as his tongue parted her soft lips. The kiss was gentle but firm and Damon responded to Bonnie's soft moan by deepening the kiss and running his hands over her body. Gently he pulled away and looked at Bonnie stood there is the candle light. This 18 year old witch has stolen his heart so completely. He hadn't known that he could feel this way about anybody and they we about to take the final step to becoming one.
"cara, I think we may need to get you out of all this finery before we go any further, I don't want to ruin your wedding dress" Damon punctuated the end of the sentence with another breath taking kiss. Bonnie smiled at him nodded and Damon gently reached his hands into the soft red curls and removed the tiara and placed it on the dressing table. He then turned Bonnie around and started to undo the tiny silk covered buttons that held her dress in place. As Damon started to unbutton the dress he placed a kiss at every new piece of skin that it exposed, she shivered as his cool fingers and cool lips travelled at a very slow pace down her spine. How could he take so long after they had hungered for one another for so long? Damon in the mean time was struggling to hold on to his resolve to take things slowly. He wanted his wife screaming his name from her soft pink lips. He wanted her delicate little hands roaming his body. He wanted her so badly that he was barely controlling himself. As he reached the final button the dress glided to the floor and pooled at her feet. Bonnie's hand reached out to Damon for him to help her step out of the pool of white silk. She stood before him proud she knew that he wanted her and she wanted him. The white lace bra gently cup her breast and lifted them slightly presenting Damon with the slight swell, the white lace panties gently hid her secrets from Damon and the suspenders and stocking s that she had on encased those legs that Damon wanted wrapped around his middle. Her feet were encasing in high heels bringing her nearly up to chin level with him. Damon had known that Bonnie was beautiful, he had know that he loved her more than anything but at this moment he stood before a goddess and it was his wife. He got to love this person for eternity. He looked at her with a desire so strong that he couldn't contain himself any longer. Just one stride and he had picked her up Bonnie automatically wrapped her legs around his waist as he carried her to their bed. He placed her on the soft bed and Bonnie gently got to her knees, she leaned forward and pulled Damon closer with his tie, Damon climbed onto the bed and started to plunder Bonnie's mouth with kisses. His hands tearing the scraps of lace from her body. Bonnie's hands franticly tearing at the buttons on Damon's shirt and the jacket and tie now gone. In frustration Bonnie ripped the shirt of his back and started on the belt of his trousers. Damon was moaning as his wife's warm hands dispatched his clothing quickly. Finally they were both naked on the bed. Damon was worshiping Bonnie's body and she was writhing in pleasure.
"Cara?" was Damon's simple question. Bonnie was moaning and enjoying the ministrations of his hands in her most intimate parts. If just his fingers could make her feel this good she wasn't sure she could cope with the ecstasies of him inside her. She nodded and moaned out an erotic "now Damon, please now" and Damon place himself at his wife entrance and claimed her.
