Bonnie

Bonnie stared out of the window at the grey skies as Elena chatted animatedly about her date with Stefan. Bonnie had stormed right out of the mall forgetting about the coffee she had wanted.

"Right, Bonnie?" Elena asked, glancing at her excitedly. "Huh?" Bonnie answered with a confused look on her face. Elena scowled at her friend's distractedness before softening her face. "What's up?" She asked gently.

"Nothing, I'm not feeling well," Bonnie lied while smiling reassuringly at her. Elena bit her lip before nodding. She knew Bonnie would tell her when she was ready. Oh I wish that I was looking into your eyes… Katy Perry sung through the radio. Bonnie sighed and bit her lip as she remembered the way Damon looked at her when he was comforting her in her room. Bonnie shook her head as Elena pulled into her own driveway.

"Want to come in for coffee?" Elena asked. Bonnie shook her head and smiled softly. "I think I'll head home. I hope you enjoy your night with Stefan and I know that he will love the way you look in that dress." Elena's face brightened at the mention of Stefan's name. "Thanks, Bonnie, and if you need anything including a friend to talk to, please call me, even if I'm with Stefan. Okay?" Bonnie nodded gratefully before pulling Elena into a hug and walking off to her own car in Elena's driveway.

Damon

Damon stared at the witch dumbly. "What?" He said confused, "How is that even possible?" "Simple. I was a witch, and I was bitten," Isabella answered in a bored tone. "Why are you here?" Damon asked suspiciously. Here was a creature that was more powerful than him in his own car. Great, he thought sarcastically.

"We want Bonnie and you." Isabella said, staring at her perfectly manicured nails for any signs of imperfections. "Katherine feels like you two will make an excellent addition to our …group, you can say."

Damon laughed for the first time, and shook his head smirking. "We will never join your group. One, I want nothing to do with that bitch, and two, she wants nothing to do with her either. "

Isabella turned in her seat, fixing her angry eyes on Damon. "One, you have no choice but to join us or else your brother, and you will be like that tree," She said quietly, nodding at the tree that had suddenly caught on fire, "And two, we will hurt all of her loved ones until she decides to come with us."

Damon stared at her hatefully before he spat out, "Why not go to Bonnie first?" Isabella settled back into her seat and smiled. "We thought you'd be the easiest to break since you love Katherine and would want to be with her…or should I say, loved?" Isabella chuckled, glancing at Damon.

Damon stared at his hands that clenched the steering wheel. "If Katherine thinks she's getting me that easily, she's completely mistaken and I suggest you deliver that message to her."

Isabella shrugged. "I'm only here to deliver a message, Damon, not to take one back to her. If you and Bonnie do not succumb to her will, she will come to you. And I can guarantee it won't be a nice visit. She always gets her way. Now do I have to waste my time going to Bonnie's house to have the same conversation or do you think you can relay the message?" Isabella asked coldly.

Damon shook his head quickly and said, "I can do it." Damon didn't want Isabella anywhere near Bonnie.

"Good. I will stop by sometime soon to hear your answers. Think wisely, Damon. You can have Katherine back if you join us." With that, Isabella was gone and Damon stared blankly at her empty seat before shifting his gear into drive and hitting the accelerator. He needed to get to Bonnie.

Bonnie/Damon

Bonnie growled under her breath as she saw Damon Salvatore on her porch when she pulled into her driveway. She stomped out of her car determined to ignore him and marched up the steps. Damon was leaning against her doorway watching her every move with interest.

Bonnie fumbled with her keys as loose curls fell in front of her. She pushed her hair back and kept trying to find the key as tears sprung to her eyes. Nothing was working out for her today: first she saw Damon with some gorgeous chick and now she couldn't find the right key and was looking like an idiot in front of him. Finally, she found it and triumphantly shoved it into the keyhole when she heard him.

"Bonnie," He whispered softly in his rich velvet voice. She shivered and ignored him. Damon stared at her as Bonnie started to turn the key. Damon reached out and grabbed her hand to stop her. He felt his patience running thin.

What did I do now? He thought annoyed, this witch is never satisfied. I thought we were on good terms because of last night. Bonnie felt her own patience running thin. Who did this guy think he was? If I hadn't seen him and that girl, I would have kept thinking he was a nice guy…wait, who am I to get jealous? There is nothing between us. He is free to see whoever he wants.

Bonnie turned sharply facing him. "Yes?" She said calmly, trying to keep the bitterness out of her voice. She didn't know why her emotions were running loose. Damon's eyes widened as he saw her watery eyes. "What happened?" Damon demanded. Bonnie turned her key and walked into her house without answering him and forgetting that Damon had entry into her house. Damon trailed in after her, locking the door and sighed. "Bonnie, what the hell, what did I do?" He exclaimed while entering the kitchen where she was warming up leftover pasta.

"Damon, go shove your head in a ditch and leave me the hell alone," Bonnie muttered slamming the microwave door shut and punching in numbers angrily (Credit goes to Jade2410).

Damon stared at her in disbelief. Finally, Bonnie couldn't resist herself. "Hope your girlfriend likes the ring you put on her," Bonnie said under her breath, pulling out her steaming bowl of pasta.

Damon's face changed from puzzlement to glee. "My, my, is Bonnie jealous? This is quite a change," He said smirking. Bonnie gripped her fork dangerously, wondering if she'd do much damage by stabbing him.

"Where's the Damon I talked to last night?" She asked, shoving a spoonful of food into her mouth. Damon's face became serious. "He's still here. But I actually came here to talk about Isabella. That's her name," Damon said softly. "I don't care," Bonnie snorted as her eyes flashed angrily at Damon's, "Came to invite me to your wedding?"

Damon shook his head and exclaimed, "You want me. Why don't you just admit it? You want me almost as much as I want you." Damon walked over to Bonnie and put her pasta bowl down on the table. He pressed his body against hers as he heard her heart race. "That's not true," She mumbled trying to reach for her pasta bowl. She stared at his chest refusing to meet his eyes. "Really? Last time I checked, your heart was disagreeing."

Bonnie finally snapped to reality and shoved Damon away. Normally, he wouldn't have moved but he was caught off guard.

"I'm so sick and tired of your games, Damon. Yesterday, you come into my room, give me comfort, and hold me like I mean something to you, and today you're off putting a ring on a girl. Now, you're back in my house and you're trying to seduce me. I'm not your fucking toy, okay? I have feelings too and as long as she or any other girl is in the picture, you will never have a chance with me," Bonnie said seething finding tears spring to her eyes. "The last thing I need is for you to hurt me."

Damon stared at her before reaching out for her hand. Bonnie pulled away and glared at him.

"Bonnie, listen to me, Isabella is not my girlfriend, she's not a friend, and she's not human. I was trying to seduce her, yes, but only so she'd willingly come with me and become my dinner. But when I tried to bite her….I couldn't. She's a witch and a vampire, and she works with Katherine. But…now that she's not in the picture, nor is any other girl, can I have a chance with you?" Damon whispered as he walked up to Bonnie, and looked directly into those mesmerizing greenish-brown orbs.
