A/N: Hi there, lovely people. I found some spare time and decided to post another chapter of He'll Wait (title I absolutely hate). I can happily inform you I already wrote not only chapter 3, but also fourth chapter. Which really makes me happy and means, there is hope for this fic, as long as writing goes. Now, I'd like to vent about something. I don't wanna sound ungraceful, but I only got 2 reviews for second chapter, while I got much more for first. There can only be two reasons for that; 1) I disappointed you with where I'm leading this story and you found second chapter so bad you didn't bother to even comment on it or 2) You simply got too lazy. If your reason is the one under number 2, please don't do it. I really enjoy reading comments and it only takes a second. Two words comment sayin' ''love it'' or ''hate it'' will be enough for me. Just comment please.
Chapter 3: The Stars Are Out Tonight
The stars are out tonight my dear,
have you ever seen them so clear?
If I could I would take you up
to take one down.
I'll turn your world around
These days it has been hard to think about anything else but him. Bonnie tried to keep herself busy with working on spells, getting involved in school projects, watching basketball with her dad, but at least one part of her mind was always echoing Klaus. Somehow she managed to find him in whatever she did. It drove her crazy just how much he was on her mind. It was the only thing she didn't want, to let him mess with her and yet, that's exactly what he was doin'.
She kissed her father's cheek before she grabbed the keys and got outside. It was wonderful sunny afternoon and she simply wanted to drive around. Find a way to stop thinking about powerful hybrid.
After what seamed like minutes to Bonnie, but was actually hours she was forced to pull over. She ran out of gas, in the middle of nowhere, south from Mystic Falls. In the woods, miles away from any civilization.
Only then, Bonnie realized her own stupidity. She left her cellphone at home. She got out of the car. ''Hello?" But it wasn't of any use, there was no one there. She got back in the car to put on a vest. It was around 7 pm and it was much colder than it was when she got into the car. She then got back outside. "Is anyone out there?"
It was a hopeless situation and Bonnie began to panic. As much as she was strong on the outside, she wasn't fearless. She too got scared sometimes. "Well, well, well who do we have here?" She heard the voice behind her. She wanted help and someone to save her, but now that she heard an actual voice behind her it scared her to death. Rapidly as she could Bonnie ran inside of her SUV and locked herself inside.
After she took few deep breathes, the person showed up on her window. It was dark, but not dark enough to not recognize his face. Same beard, same eyes and same lips…yet they were so much more horrifying this time. Blood on them was so visible, the animal he really was could clearly be seen in Klaus's eyes. He knocked on the window with a bloody fist. Bonnie's heart was beating so fast she though she will have an heart-attack any second now.
He didn't have to be a genius, it was plain obvious she was scared. Klaus didn't know how exactly he looked after the feast, he never looked at himself, but the fear in her eyes made it obvious he might got over the top in feeding on those campers. "It's okay." He said, as if he was an old friend, when in fact he was someone she tried to kill not long ago.
He took a tissue out of his pocket and wiped his lips and hands. Then again, he looked like a typical guy, even though he was far from being one. "I promise I'm not going to hurt you." His voice was calmed, while her heartbeat was exactly the opposite. He could feel it through the glass, part of him wanted to feed on her. But he knew he'd fight that temptation, she wasn't unimportant human being, she was someone he wanted alive. "I'm not hungry anymore." He added with a smirk.
She had no idea what to do, but she started to clam down. He didn't attack her, even though he was obviously still high from human blood. It meant he could control himself and he won't hurt her. That's what the optimistic part of her thought, the other half of her brain however though he might just love the game and will kill her with pleasure later on.
She thought about her options and it was quite obvious there was none. "I won't hurt you, Bonnie. You have my word." Klaus said once again before she finally rolled down the window.
"Car troubles, my love?" He asked, as if he wasn't a monster who just ended innocent lives.
Bonnie changed her mind. "You know what? I'm fine." She pressed the button for glass to go back up. "Relax, I can help you." Klaus said. "Plus, you have no other option, do you?" He added with a smirk. He enjoyed being right and he enjoyed being the only exist out of the situation. It was probably his favorite, to be needed.
"I'll be fine without you." Bonnie said harshly, she hated to handle him all the power over the situation. Some girls loved being saved, but that was never something that came naturally to Bonnie.
"Oh love," he laughed as he with his strength managed to keep the glass down. "be saved for once. Let me take care of you." He smiled, again.
He was charming and creepy at the same time, but he was right - he was her only option. She took her keys and got out of the car. "You better not hurt me, Klaus." Still she wanted control, it was like her hands are tied without it. "My friends will make your life miserable if you do." She looked him straight in the eyes.
Klaus wanted to laugh at her, her statement was funny to him. One, her friends weren't smart enough to hurt him, they failed many times. Well, Stefan had the coffins, but no one managed to kill him yet. Two, with the amount of selfishness people she called friends carried, he was positive they'd forget about her soon enough. Still, he didn't laugh. He recognized himself in the witch, he too hated to be out of control.
"Here's my car." He pointed to the black Mercedes. "Shall I offer you a ride home, love?" He still wanted to shove it in her face that she needs him.
Bonnie rolled her eyes. "Ugh…" was what she said before she opened the door for herself, even though Klaus was prepared to do that for her, and sat down on the passenger seat.
"You, 21st century women…" Klaus sad under his breathe getting in. "Guy can't be a gentlemen anymore."
Still, she heard him and got surprised. It sounded like he cared, like he wanted to impress her. Why would he do that?
After half and hour of silence, Klaus spoke again."You know Bonnie, I'm not a patient man." He stated which made Bonnie look away from the road and into the hybrid. "I told you what I want."
"Me." Bonnie whispered and she looked down. The vampires and their attitude. Bonnie was suddenly sick of them all. Damon, Ripper Stefan, Rebekah, Klaus…they were all so cocky and greedy.
She looked back up again, Klaus was looking at the road as they passed 'Welcome To Mystic Falls' sign. "That's the thing with you vampires. You're ungrateful, selfish and reckless. You want whatever you want right away. That's not how things work, how they should be." She said calmly to Klaus.
He was honestly surprised with what he head, but he knew it was true."No wonder, we have spend forever hating you." She crossed her arms.
A/N. And that was it. I hope you enjoyed reading it as much as I did writing it. I really wanted to portret their characters truthfully in this was; with a bit of flirting but still as two species who hate one another (hybrids (and vampires for that matter) and witches). As you might noticed focus of my fic is Bonnie and I hope you're okay with that. So often I get mad with how little screentime she has and how many good storylines are passed to other charactes. Writers ignore Bonnie in my opinion, so I have this fic where she's a center and I apprecaite her pontential more than TVD writers do sometimes.
I probably made grammar mistakes, but believe me I tried my best not to. Song is A Rocket To The Moon. Please comment, as stated before, it's very important for me to read the feedback.
