Bonnie woke up the next morning and immediately felt a huge smile grow across her face. The birds were chirping, the sunlight was flooding happily through the window, and Damon was sprawled next to her snoring softly. She chuckled to herself and sat up in bed to stretch.
She rubbed her eyes and slipped out of bed carefully. She stared at Damon breathing blissfully before she went into the bathroom and got ready.
Bonnie didn't change out of her pajamas because she had no where to go and softly walked out of their room and down the stairs. The house was still and quiet as she realized that Stefan and Elena were not up either.
Bonnie walked into the kitchen and made herself a cup of coffee before turning around to face the backyard. She saw something glinting in the sun and as curiosity got the best of her, she opened the door and proceeded outside.
As she neared the object, she saw it was Katherine's ring. Last night's events came rushing back to her and she shuddered thanking the Gods it was over.
Bonnie picked up the ring and set it on the stone bench that was in the backyard and sat down. She put her mug down next to her and brought her knees up towards her chest. She gazed around soaking in the sunshine and lost herself to her thoughts.
She picked up the ring and twirled it around on her hand wondering what it felt like to be a vampire. She wondered what would happen as she got older and Damon stayed the same. She wondered what he would do after she died. Would he move on? Would Stefan move on? Was he going to turn Elena?
Bonnie honestly didn't want to turn into a vampire even thought she thought about it. Immortality? She didn't need it; one lifetime was enough for her. She sighed as she gazed at the ring, taking in the beauty of the lapis lazuli stone and the detailed engraving around the ring of the stone. She was so immersed in her thoughts that she didn't even see Damon walk in and sit down next to her.
"Thanks," He muttered as he picked up her mug and took a sip. Bonnie scowled before she smiled softly at him. She noticed his ring shining in the sun and she looked back down at Katherine's ring. "What are you thinking about?" Damon asked quietly as he gulped down the rest of the coffee and stared at her.
Her brown curly hair seemed to glow in the sunlight and her green-brown eyes seemed rather greener today.
"About what it feels to be one of you," Bonnie admitted. "Why? Are you thinking about changing?" Damon joked.
Bonnie laughed nervously and shook her head. "Just… to have so much power bundled up in one body, and then there are more of you in the world, it creates an imbalance with the universe," Bonnie said softly, "I wonder how the first vampire even became a vampire."
"Me too," Damon said softly. "It's crazy that we are sitting here, talking normally, when we killed two people last night," Bonnie said smiling. Changing the subject, she faced him and sat cross-legged on the bench and said, "What now? We're done fighting evil. For now."
"For now," Damon said agreeing. He shrugged and suggested, "A happy and stress-free life?" Bonnie and Damon looked at each and burst out laughing.
"I think I'll work on my magic a bit more. Make Emily and Grams proud," Bonnie said as she gazed up at the clear sky. "They must be angry you're the last Bennett," Damon said as he looked at her. Was this his way of asking if she'd be with him for the rest of her existence?
Bonnie thought for a second and nodded. "Yeah, they must be," Bonnie said as she smiled. Damon grinned and cupped her face bringing her in for a kiss. Bonnie softly ran her tongue along his lower lip and felt him intensify the kiss. She held the kiss for a few minutes longer and then pulled away at the sound of Elena's voice. "Guys, stop smooching and come help us make breakfast!"
Bonnie chuckled and started walking. She turned around, walking backwards and yelled to Damon with a mischievous glint in her eye, "Race you back!" She turned around and started running as fast as she could. Damon came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her and picked her up, twirling her around. Bonnie laughed as Damon set her down.
She opened the door and held his hand as they walked inside. They saw Stefan lick waffle batter off of Elena's cheek. "Hey guys," Elena said cheerfully as she pulled away from Stefan, blushing, "set the table and wash the fruits. We're almost done." Bonnie smiled as she grabbed the plates and started walking to the table. This is how life should always be, Bonnie thought happily.
