A/N: So... it's been a really looooong time, hasn't it? Jajaja...I'm sorry, for anyone who actually liked my story, I was way too lost to keep writing. But now, I'm back! Theraphy and a few month in the middle, I'm back. I hope you like this chapter. It's just something to get on my tracks again, because the second season started, and I had to be fair to it.
For the record, I don't plan on doing the same as the TV show. I don't like Stefan, I love Damon. So, there won't be any" I love Stefan, it's always been Stefan, it'll always be Stefan!. You know what? Fuck Stefan and his furrowed eyebrows! I like more the ElenaxDamon now, I'll be honest. But, I'm thinking to stay faithful to the original plot, DamonxBonnie.
Knowing this, there isn't anything else I want you to know. Sorry for the crazy late update, and the long a/n.
Enjoy your reading, I'm always wating for reviews =)
Love, Maggie
Damon woke up next to a very blond woman. She was sleeping quietly, but he didn't remember bringing her home. How strange. He rolled to one side, got out of bed and watched the girl carefully. She looked nothing like the type of woman he liked. She looked like a sorority chick from some college. He couldn't understand why he had brought her here. "Maybe because she doesn't look like Katherine, and she doesn't look like Bonnie. Maybe I just wanted a change" he thought, but wasn't very convinced.
The girl started to move, and Damon decided to let her go. He wasn't really in the mood for killing. Easily, he compelled her to leave and forget everything, and she did. So now, he was at peace again, alone. He sighed deeply. "What's wrong with me?" he thought, tired. Maybe it was time for come clean. Tell Bonnie, Stefan, and Elena everything, and what might happen, happens. But, it wasn't very clever of him, and he wasn't going to do it, too risky. "So fuck it all then" he said to himself. "I need to find her, or I'll go nuts over night. I need Bonnie" he thought. And so he left the boarding house to go find the little witch who was messing with his head.
He got there in almost record time, knocked twice, and waited. A very sleepy Bonnie came out to greet him.
-Well, hello sleepy head. How are you today?- he asked politely. Bonnie looked at him strangely.
-What are you doing here, Damon?- she asked suspicious.
-I- he said- need to tell you something. May I come inside, please?-. Bonnie swallowed hard, then step out of his way.
-You've been invited in Damon, what other choice do I honestly have?- she asked resigned. Damon chuckled once.
-What other choice indeed- he murmured under his breath. They entered the house, and it was warm. He felt odd in there. He could feel Bonnie right beside him, and the proximity made him nervous.
-So- she said after closing the door and sitting in the couch- what's up?-. "How to start?" he asked himself. "Let's be straight, and simple. Just the truth".
-Bonnie- he said- you need to know something. Katherine isn't really dead-.
-What?- she shouted totally out of her mind.
-She's not dead, Bonnie-
-How you know that?- she asked with narrowed eyes.
-I always have. You want the whole story?-. Bonnie nodded.
-All right then- he said, then started to speak- You remember you ancestor, Emily?- Bonnie nodded again- well, she casted a spell which sell Katherine in a tomb, beneath the church. But, I don't think she's too happy there, half dead, and starving. Anyway, I've been waiting for 145 years to get her out. Emily used the power of the comet to give the spell more strength, if you might say, and, a crystal. The very same crystal you found. So, for the crystal to work, the comet had to return home, and then I could use in. With a few more preparations, of course. The thing is, I don't know what's going on anymore. I mean, this, it's too weird, and it feels too real. I don't think it's good, for any of us-
-Wait- Bonnie managed to say between shocks- you're saying, you wanna broke up with me?-
-I, I don't know. It's complicated, you know? I had a plan, I was so sure. Now I don't know anything anymore. And I certainly don't like it-.
-You want me to do what? To open the so said tomb and get Katherine out? Then what? Then you two go living happily ever after, and I stay here, weeping like an idiot?-
-No- Damon answered, uncertain- I, don't mean you any harm, I really don't. But I need to get Katherine out. I need it. 'Cause if I don't, I'll have the doubt forever. Of what it could have been. I don't want that, I couldn't live with that anymore-. Surprisingly, he seemed honest. And he was making a great effort to explain himself. She could see he wanted Katherine, that he needed her. And like the sucker she was, she wanted to help him. "I'm so gonna regret this" she thought but said anyway.
-I'll do it-. Damon looked at her puzzled.
-You'll do what?-
-I'll help you get her out-
-Why?- he asked precautious, but with hope in his beautiful blue eyes. Bonnie didn't really want to answer that.
-Because- she said, but couldn't find a real reason- just because. I, I think you deserve this. Yes, I must be crazy, but, I really do. We'll do it, and see what happens, ok?-
Damon's eyes were sparkling. He was almost happy, and very grateful. But, thanks God, he was still Damon. So he only said "thank you" in a forced voice, and left. They didn't talk about how they were gonna do this, but, I could wait, at least until tomorrow, or until she speaks with her grandmother.
"She's going to fucking kill me!" she thought "oh, well, what's done, it's done, what's said, it's said. Let's see what happens. And, whatever does happen, we'll deal". She was quiet for a moment, trying to figure out we who. It was starting to freak her out, so she left it there, to handle later, maybe after speaking with Elena. "I'm so going to hell for this" she thought before going upstairs to get change and out of that house for a while. Damon's scent still lingered in the air, she needed new air.
She found herself knocking on Elena's door.
-Coming!- someone yelled. Bonnie felt nervous, her stomach twisted.
Jenna opened the door suddenly.
-Oh!- she exclaimed- Bonnie. How are you? What's up?- she asked nicely.
-Nothing much- Bonnie answered- Is Elena home?-. Jenna denied it with his head.
-Nop- she said- she hasn't returned from Stefan's. You needed something?-
-Actually- Bonnie murmured, not sure of what to say after all- no. I just wanted to talk to her. I'll catch her later at the grill or whatever. Thanks!- but before Jenna could say something else, she was running out of view.
"Thanks God she wasn't home!" she thought. But, internally, she knew she wasn't right. Elena needed to know this, and so did Stefan. "Fuck" she thought.
Bonnie decided to go to the boarding house, to see them both. Hopefully, Damon wouldn't be there. She run almost all the way from Elena's to the boarding house, but was hardly tired. The years as a cheerleader were finally showing.
Again, she found herself in front of another door, knowing there wasn't return from the trip she intended to start. She breathed hard once, exhaled, and knocked. She couldn't hear anything, and all of the sudden, Stefan was right in front of her, smiling.
-Bonnie- he said- What's wrong?- he asked suddenly dropping the happy charade.
-Can I come in? I need to talk to you. And Elena, is she here?-
-Yes, she is. Please, come inside-
-Thanks- she answered automatically. She entered. Not for the first time, but with a different brother than the other times.
Elena was sitting in the living room couch, reading People magazine.
-Hi- she said when she saw Bonnie- Is something wrong?-
-Not quiet. But I need to talk to you, both. And I need you to please, please listen. You promise?- she asked Elena, looking at her in the eyes.
-Y…yes- Elena stumbled, looking at Bonnie confused and insecure. Bonnie took a sit, trying to calm herself.
-Ok, here's the deal. Katherine, your ex vampire girlfriend, is alive-
-What?- Stefan asked politely, maybe questioning her sanity.
-She's alive. She's not dead. She's not dancing with the devil, I can't think anymore synonyms-.
-I understood that, alright, but, it's impossible-.
-No it's not. Your brother and Emily saved her. She and the others. They're locked inside a tomb, underneath the church-
-How? Why? What the…?- Stefan was shocked. Elena too.
-Bonnie- she said- please, can you explain better?-
-Damon made a deal with Emily, and she casted a spell that seal the vampires in the tomb. So, she's alive, not very happy, but alive. And Damon wants her back- even she could feel the sadness and disappointment in her voice. Stefan was still beyond belief.
-That's not possible. I saw her going in- he said to Elena, forgetting Bonnie's presence.
-Stefan- Bonnie said- she's alive. The faster you get over that, the faster we'll get her out, and go on with our lives- "empty lives" she thought to herself. She sighed.
Stefan looked shocked, and kind of hurt.
-Ok- said Elena, trying to be diplomatic- let's be rational. Katherine is alive, but locked in a tomb. How do you know this Bonnie?-. Her friend looked away, avoiding her stare. That was an obvious move.
-Damon- Elena said in awe- motherfucker!- she exclaimed, surprising her audience.
-Elena!- Stefan yelled, not able to help himself.
-I'm sorry. But, c'mon! He's known this since the beginning. He's an evil, smart, sneaky bastard-
-He certainly is- said Bonnie laughing.
-There's nothing funny about this!- Stefan said.
-You're right, there's not. But either way, we must figure something out, because I promised Damon I would get her out-
-You did what?- Both Stefan and Elena yelled. "Oh God" Bonnie thought "I'm so, so fucked".
