Chapter 18

A/N: Ok, I'm so sorry that this chapter took so long. I've had to deal with the very horrible thing called writers block. I'm sorry for the people, who wanted me to extend this story, and I appreciate the ideas, but the next chapter will be the last in the story. Thank you to everyone who reviewed, and put this story on your alert and favorite lists.

Bonnie's POV

It was done and over. After Damon, Stefan, and I managed to get back to Mystic Falls, they found a jogger that I could feed on to complete the change.

After it was over, they compelled the jogger to forget everything that had happened, and we moved on. I couldn't believe I had actually done it. I was now a vampire, and there was no going back.

But that was when a thought suddenly occurred to me. "Wait, I need a ring don't I?" I asked, turning towards both of the Salvatore brothers.

Stefan gave me a reassuring smile. "We have a spare one back at the boarding house. Just in case something like this happened", he said. I didn't think I've ever been more grateful for the absence of the sun then I did at that moment.

I immediately felt a little better when we were inside the boarding house, but it quickly went away when I realized that Elena was there, and was going to have to find out what happened, and that I was no longer human.

She smiled in relief when she saw me, not having any idea what had happened. But her smile faded when she saw Damon take out the spare ring they had, and slip it onto my finger.

"Bonnie what….?"

"I…was changed Elena"

Elena looked back and forth between the three of us, obviously wanting to know more about what was going on.

"Katherine changed before we had the chance to stop her", Damon cut in, actually sounding a little regretful.

Elena's eyes widened, and when she looked at me, her eyes looked a little apologetic. "Oh Bon, I'm so sorry."

Suddenly, she was up and out of her seat on the sofa, and we were hugging. "It wasn't anyone's fault Elena. Katherine…she outsmarted all of us", I said, after we broke apart.

"Hey, don't say that. We still managed to get you back before she completely succeeded in what she wanted to do", Damon said. I wasn't sure if he was only trying to lighten the mood by saying this, or if he was really trying to make everyone feel better.

But I guess what he said was true. Katherine had wanted to kill me, not just turn me into a vampire.

I looked down at my feet. "I guess"

"Elena, did you give the invention to Anna?" Stefan suddenly asked.

Elena nodded. "And I told her where to go to meet Isobel."

Stefan sighed, and I could tell that this calmed his nerves, if only a little.

It was then that I saw Elena staring curiously at me, and I turned towards her. "What?"

She shook her head. "Nothing, it's just…how is she able to stay in control so well? I mean, with Vicky…"

"It most likely had something to do with her witch genes", Damon answered, giving me a sideways glance. "She has way more control than any normal new vampire should."

I could've sworn that I saw him give me some sort of look of admiration as he said this.

Stefan was looking at me curiously now. "I wonder if she has any other abilities that come with her witch powers."

"Alright, will you all please stop looking at me like I'm some kind of science experiment", I snapped, taking the time to look at all of them.

Surprisingly, they actually listened to me, and Elena murmured an apology.

That night, I went back to sleeping in the guest room, since I had no idea where Damon and my relationship stood now.

Yes, from the looks of it, he did care for me, and before he remembered everything, he had said that he loved me. But maybe that was only the old Damon talking, and now that the other one was back, maybe he didn't even remember what we had.

I felt the tears threatening to leak out, but I forced them back, and finally fell asleep.

The next day

The next morning was really awkward, and even after all she has been through, I could still tell that Elena was a little nervous about being the only human in a house with three vampires.

Suddenly, the door opened, and there stood Jeremy, and he was…smiling?

"Jere, what is it?" Elena asked, her eyes narrowed.

"Elena, Anna convinced Isobel to compel Bonnie's dad. They don't think you attacked him, and you can come home!"

Instantly, Elena's once gloomy face brightened. But then a thought must have passed through her mind, and she looked down at her feet.

"I guess I owe Anna an apology", she said.

Jeremy nodded. "Yeah she…Bonnie?" he suddenly said, looking at me for the first time he got here.

Having two humans in the room was too much I guess, because now the thirst was almost killing me. I suddenly remembered what Damon and Stefan looked like when they were thirst, and I knew that I must be scaring the hell out of Jeremy.

"Bonnie…is a vampire Jere", Elena said, answering his unspoken question.

"Oh", was all he said, probably in shock.

"I…I have to go", I said, heading passed him and towards the front door. I had to get out of here and somehow feed, fast.

But once I was out the door, I heard someone get up, and I turned to see that Damon was following me.

A/N: I know, short chapters, but that's what happens when you're out of ideas. Thanks for reading!
