"Is this a fucking joke or what, because it's not funny. Not at all", Damon said. He was pissed, beyond pissed. He imagined their next meeting way different, she should have let him kiss her. She should confess her feelings for him or something like that, but she should definitely not be out of memory about their night.
"It's not a joke, why would I do that", she refused to look him directly in the eyes and in that moment Damon knew she was hiding something.
"Bonnie", he started and took a step toward her. She still didn't look him in the eyes.
"Bonnie", he repeated and stood in front of her again. His fingers gently gabbed her chin, making eye contact.
"You do remember, don't you."
She didn't say anything, trying to hold up and hopefully he could not see any guilt in her eyes. She felt guilty, because she cheated on her fiancé and she felt guilty that she evoked feelings in Damon.
"How we kissed and made love in the car."
Bonnie ripped his hand off her face and walked over to the other end of the room, putting as much space as possible between them.
"We did not make love, Damon", she countered and shook her head.
"So now you're admitting that you lied about your hangover. You admit that you actually did sleep with me?."
"I... I'm..."
"Yeah?"
"We did not make love, Damon."
"We did", he insisted, "I saw it in your eyes, in the way you touched me and kissed me. You felt the same, you just don't want to admit it." Damon closed the gap between them again as he held her hand.
"And I do understand you. You're still engaged to this freak."
"Don't call him that", she interrupted him and pulled her hand away. His touch was very distracting.
Damon smirked. "I love you."
Bonnie eyes widened and she had to gulp. This was exactly the one situation she did not want to happen. That's why she pretended the loss of her memory, she didn't want to face this particular scene.
"I love you", he said again and approached her again. His hands took hold of her soft cheeks and he stroked them with his thumbs. "I love you so much that it kills me seeing you and Gilbert."
"Damon."
"He doesn't deserve you."
"And you do", she asked and raised her brow.
"I can make you happy, more than anyone else, more than he does."
"I can't."
"Why not, huh. You have nothing to lose."
"Nothing to lose? I'm engaged, my wedding is tomorrow."
"I know, but it's not too late to change your mind."
"I'm not changing my mind, Damon. I will marry Jeremy no matter what you say."
"I guess you leave me no choice than to just show you", he said before he kissed her hard on the mouth. His hands held her head fixed against his lips, hindering her to escape. His tongue skneaked out of his mouth and licked along her lips until she gave in and opened her mouth. Both of them moaned as their tongues touched. Damon was in heaven, his hands let go of her face and crawled along her sides. He placed them on her ass and pulled her flush against his growing erection.
That was the moment when Bonnie realized what she was about to do. She pushed her hands against his chest and tried to shove him away. Of course he did not budge or let her go, so she slapped him again.
"What is it with you keep smacking me like I'm a punching bag."
"You idiot kissed me."
"You liked it and if you wouldn't be so stubborn we would repeat our session. Probably it would take more than just 30 minutes", he smirked at her. His grace heatedly lingered on her.
"No way, this only happened once. We won't go there again."
"Oh, I highly doubt that."
"Damon, I mean it. It was a mistake, it shouldn't have happened and I don't want you to tell anyone."
He chuckled, did she really think that he give up so easily?
"Well, Stefan already knows."
"Of course he does", she rolled her eyes. "Who else- Alaric?"
"Nope, not yet, but I can tell him if you want me to."
"No", she shrieked, "don't tell anyone. No one, do you hear me? Especially not Jeremy."
"Loud and clear, but since when do I listen to anyone else than myself", he huffed.
"Damon, please, don't. I thought you love me", she said and to be honest it was mean to use that against him, but that's what happens when you're desperate.
"I do", his face smoothed.
"Then do me this one favour and forget the night and let me move on. Please, I beg you."
He saw the sadness in her eyes and it was killing him. He wanted her to be happy, not sad because of him but this meant for him to step back. He would let her move on and marry Jeremy. It was breaking his heart, when he imagined not having her on his side and that she chose Jeremy to be the most important man her life. But he truely loved her and he wanted her to be happy, so he would give her whatever she asked for.
"If that's what you want", he replied, kissed Bonnie's forhead for the last time and left the room without saying another word.
