A/N: THANK YOU ALL FOR THE REVIEWS, FAVORITES, AND FOLLOWS! I'M SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW BECAUSE OF THEM! This really gives me inspiration to keep on writing and thinking of new ideas for this story.

I saw that most of your concerns had to do with Bonnie, Damon, and Stefan. Well, let me just clear the air, Bonnie's reason for saying yes to Stefan will be explained in this chapter and so will Damon's reason. I know it must seem all confusing right now especially with Giuseppe and if he had anything to do with Damon's man whoreness. As we get more and more chapters, we get deeper and deeper into each of the character's own person story. In every fanfiction about Damon, there is always a very dramatic and traumatizing story behind him and that is the reason why he is who he is.

Giuseppe DID NOT choose the assistants for Damon's benefit, but his own. Like father like son, he likes a pretty face basically and doesn't really care that they're intelligent and with Bonnie well they just got lucky.

Stefan really does like Bonnie, but he sees that Damon can't have her so when he asks her out and she says yes, it's bonus points for him. They are brothers and they love to irritate each other.

This story may seem a little quick to some of you, but don't worry because it won't be like that. I have great and very long plans for Bonnie's future and she INTENDS to not be one of those girls, but it's going to a long process because she young and confused…that will change as well. You know how Bonnie is in either books, fanfics, or the TV show, she had a long journey ahead of her.

Also you're all probably wondering why she isn't getting fired well that's easy because Damon wants her. So he's very determined to get what he wants.

I know I'm going to get a lot of reviews about the next two chapters because they seem so OOC and messed up, but it all fits in so give me time to explain more on the subject…I promise it will all make sense.


Bonnie fluttered her eyes open and put her hand threw her hair as she sat up straight in her bed, the memories from flying back from last night. She glanced at the clock and it read: 5:30 am. She mentally groaned and then debated whether or not she should even go to work.

Bonnie nodded her head confidently and threw the covers off of her body and stood up. No, she wasn't a coward. Her parents taught her better than that. They taught her not to run away from her problems so she wasn't going to run.

Bonnie got dressed for work and walked into the office with a nice smile on her face.

"Good morning, Bonnie," Caroline greeted as she walked beside her.

Bonnie smiled politely at Caroline and said, "Hello, Caroline. You're looking swell today."

Caroline sighed. "I will never get tired of your sweet compliments, Bonnie Bennet. You're too nice for your own good."

"Well, I hope we are friends and friends compliment each other." Bonnie said.

Caroline stopped in front of her. "We are friends and I like to think that friends tell each other things."

"Like what," she asked innocently.

"Well, I heard from Sheryl who's from accounting that you and Damon stayed late last night." She wiggled her eyebrows in suggestive way.

Bonnie stiffened as walked past Caroline and to her desk saying, "Nothing happened. Please don't think or suggest otherwise. I don't think of Mr. Salvatore that way."

Caroline laughed and sat on Bonnie's desk saying, "But you think of Stefan that way."

Bonnie avoided the question. "I'm surprised that you are comfortable enough to call them by their first names."

Caroline chuckled. "I've known the Salvatores for almost eleven years now. I met them when I was barely growing breasts in the summer." Caroline laughed like she was remembering a private joke or memory. "This one time…well I don't think I should really tell you, Bonnie."

"Ok," Bonnie said, clearly unconcerned and ok with Caroline not telling her.

Caroline sighed. "Ok, well Damon was only twenty-one years old and it was his birthday so we threw him a surprise party and everything. When Damon came in through the door," she laughed and continued, "he was so drunk and he had a crowd of people he 'didn't' know following him and he was telling them a joke about, and I quote, 'and the girl on the horse fell on cow's shit'. He said that right when he came in through the door. Luckily everyone was so drunk already that they just laughed it off."

Bonnie couldn't help, but laugh at it even though she shouldn't. She thought that it was funny. "That doesn't surprise me that he was drunk."

"Yeah, my advice to you is to stay away from him when he is." Caroline said softly.

Bonnie knitted her eyebrows in confusion. "Why?"

"Because he's…unpredictable you could say. Bipolar as well."

Bonnie nodded shyly, now understanding why Damon was like that last night. "Ok. Got you."

Caroline eyed her suspiciously and was about to protest when a voice cut in, "My, my, what do we have here? Two beautiful women at Damon's beck and call. He is a lucky man."

Caroline smiled as she got off the desk and turned to the man. "Elijah, we weren't expecting you till next Monday. I hope you know its Friday."

"Well, I decided to come early to get things prepared for the rest of the barbarians I call family."

Elijah and Caroline hugged each other and he kissed her on the cheek. Elijah looked past Caroline and to Bonnie. "And who is this lovely beauty?"

Caroline rolled her eyes and Bonnie slightly shifted in her seat nervously for some odd reason she was unknown to. "This Bonnie Bennet. She is Damon's new assistant, she started two weeks ago."

Elijah held out his hand and Bonnie leaned over and shook it. Elijah looked down at their joined hands and mused, "That is a strong and dare I say, but confident handshake you have there, Miss Bennet."

Bonnie smiled. "My father taught me how to have one of those."

"If you used that on Giuseppe along with your looks and intelligence, you would surely be more than some assistant."

Bonnie nodded. "Thank you for that advice."

Caroline turned and went to her desk, apparently she was the assistant of Giuseppe Salvatore and Bonnie could see why. She was very intelligent than you would expect her to be.

"Here let me give you this when you want to be something more than some assistant, Miss Bennet." Elijah said as he pulled a card out his jacket pocket. He handed it to her and she was hesitant.

"I-I don't know, Mr. Mikaelson."

"Please, call me Elijah." He still held out the card in front of her. "Here just in case you change your mind…someday."

"I'm one of those people that are single-minded on some occasions."

"Well, humor me if you must by keeping the card just for…preservation for your future." Elijah urged with a charming smile.

Bonnie sighed and nodded. "Fine. Ok."

Bonnie took the card and put it in her purse for safe keeping. Damon in that moment finally came into the office and Bonnie stood up and took his things from him. Damon eyed Elijah, "May I ask what you are doing here?"

"Oh, I'm just getting to know your lovely assistant." Elijah teased as they walked inside his office.

"I doubt that she was lovely to the likes of you," Damon said.

"She is standing right here," Bonnie said in a sing-song voice as she hung his coat and hat and was about to make him a drink.

Damon smirked and ignored her. "So, Elijah why are you here?"

"I'm here to make sure your team puts together a very good campaign idea about the new clothing line we have. You know how picky they are."

"Especially Rebekah and Kol." Damon taunted as he sat in his chair.

Bonnie came over to him and handed him his drink. Their fingers grazed each other and Damon noticed this, but Bonnie was oblivious to it. She was about to walk out of his office, but he told Elijah, "Elijah could you give us a moment."

Elijah nodded and walked out of his office. Damon waited for a moment when he left and said, "Listen-"

Bonnie put a hand up and said, "Its fine. We don't need to talk about what happened last night. You had too much to drink and I was very sleep deprived. Nothing more than a mistake that needs to be forgotten."

Damon nodded and gulped. "Right. Your right, it's forgotten. I apologize for the way I acted towards you, Miss Bennet…that was not right."

Bonnie smiled and nodded. She turned to the door and had her hand on the door knob then stopped all of the sudden. She turned back around and sat in the chair across from him.

She asked curiously, "Why do you drink so much?"

Damon was sort of shocked by her question and when he didn't answer her, she stood up and waved off, "It's ok. You don't have to tell me…I just thought you may have wanted some one to talk to or something."

"Bad memories, you could say and that is all I'm saying to you." He told her softly and yet sternly.

She was able to detect a hint of sorrow in his voice. She nodded in understanding. "That happens a lot to every one."

"To you?"

"Even me." She smiled sadly and walked out of his office, his eyes burning into her back.


Bonnie and Stefan were looped arm in arm with each other as they strolled in Central Park together, laughing at jokes that were told to them, memories of their childhoods, and what made it perfect was that they didn't talk about work…not even a little bit.

There were many reasons why she agreed to going on a date with Stefan. One of them had to be that he wasn't a pig like the rest of them, in fact Bonnie seemed to think that he was the only man there who actually stood up for women and was a gentleman. Bonnie liked that about him and of course she was still picky about every one she met, but when he asked her, she decided to take a chance on him and prayed to God that she didn't regret it later.

"What is your mother like? I don't hear much about her from others." Bonnie asked.

Stefan smiled unconsciously like Caroline did as he stared into the distance. "She is the nicest person you will ever know. She's selfless, kind, very smart sometimes too smart for her own good. I remember one time she would threaten Damon and I that if we ever lied to her that she would find out."

Bonnie laughed. "Really, how?"

Stefan laughed as well. "Well, she told us that detecting lies was her superpower and of course, we believed her. Though even now she can tell if were lying."

"Mother's intuition could be her superpower," Bonnie joked which made him chuckle.

"I guess you're right." He said.

He walked her home like the gentleman he was and he looked around a little bit as they stopped in front of the apartment building. This made Bonnie furrow her eyebrows in confusion as she stopped in front of him. "What's wrong?"

He turned to her and said with a soft smile, "I'm making sure that you are safe and sound."

"Oh so you're checking for any stranger dangers, aren't you?"

He nodded and she replied, "Well, I can protect myself, but thank you for trying make me feel safe."

"According to my brother, I'm a girl's knight n' shinning amour. So being the knight that I am, I feel obligated to at least try and maybe succeed at protecting you."

"Even if it means protecting my shoes from not getting wet from the puddles on the sidewalk." She challenged.

"Of course, Miss Bennet. Why I think there is a puddle just right there?" He pointed behind her and she foolishly turned around to look at it.

Stefan quickly picked her up in his arms and she squealed a little in surprise. He carried her bridal style over the very tiny puddle and to the door. He smiled down at her as he set her down on her feet.

"There now your pretty shoes aren't ruined after all," he joked.

She laughed and straightened put her dress. "I guess you're right. Thank you for the lovely dinner. I had fun tonight which is something I rarely do."

"I noticed. You're an even worse workaholic than my brother. When I asked you out, for a minute I thought that you would for sure say no."

"How I wonder how you managed to get me out so early from work?"

"Oh, I didn't. Caroline owed me favor so I cashed it in and told her to cover for you."

"I'm going to get an earful from your brother tomorrow, I just know it."

"He's a pain in the ass."

Bonnie laughed and nodded. "He says the same thing about you."

"I'm sure he says many things about me."

She nodded and smiled sweetly at him. He leaned down and kissed her softly, cupping one of her cheeks. Bonnie sort of leaned into it and kissed him back, but she didn't want to rush things because…well…she was still a virgin. Of course she was proud of being a virgin, but she couldn't go that far with anyone right now…not even Stefan.

He pulled back and them smiled at her again as he kissed her forehead and walked backwards saying, "I hope to see you again. Maybe for another date sometime next week?"

Bonnie rolled her eyes playfully. "You Salvatores are very determined."

Stefan laughed. "Well, what can I say? Our name does mean savior. Goodnight, Bonnie."

"Night, Stefan." She called back as he got in the taxi that pulled up.

She kept smiling as she entered the building, went into her apartment, dressed into her night clothes, and went to bed.


Bonnie came into work today with a smile on her face which she couldn't help, but she did try. She felt happy for some reason. Perhaps it had something to do with Stefan or her new life. She shrugged and put her things away and waited for Damon to come in. Luckily she didn't have to wait that long.

Damon had been trying everyday she got there to calculate the time she got into the office so he could walk with her. He was getting close and he was afraid to say it aloud, but…Bonnie Bennet was the best part of his day. The way she talked to him was very consuming, he was always turned on by it, and so he was lucky that he sat down most of the time.

He had a very dirty dream about her last night which he couldn't help might he add. He remembered it right after he woke up in his bed. He called Bonnie into his office and she closed the door and locked it. All she kept on saying to him as she unbuttoned her clothes and took down her hair which was released in long brown curls, was that she wanted him more than anyone else and that she was very hot for right now.

After she took her clothes off, she was still in her heels and she bit her lip and smiled at him as she sauntered seductively over to him. She wore black lingerie underneath her clothes and as she walked her hips moved entrancingly which made her more irrestistable. She wore stockings and every piece of lingerie that she was wearing was black. She put her hands on his shoulders as she straddled his thighs.

She kept smiling at him like she knew something that he would never know. She was teasing him every chance she got and it excited him even more. She tore his shirt and vest open and she kissed so passionately that he thought the dream was real. His hands somehow found her ass cheeks and gripped them. Just when things were heating up, he fucking woke up to a very hard and erected dick.

Damon was so close to catching up with her and figuring out her times. He came into the office and she took off his things and hung them up as usual. "Miss Bennet, don't let anyone in my office."

"Ok," she said without questions which surprised him. She walked out of his office and he sat in his chair and put his feet on the desk, leaning back in the chair, going to his place that he created when he wanted to get away from everything and everyone.

Frankly, he wanted to get back to his dirty dream about her again or dream of any other one. Everything felt so real in that dream that he wanted it again.

Bonnie sat back in her desk and kept her eyes down at the files she needed to file for future clients and accounts. It may have been a few hours or so when a soft voice disrupted her.

"Hello?"

Bonnie looked up at the stranger. "Yes, how may I help you?"

They smiled at her and replied, "I'm here to see Damon."

"I'm sorry, but do you have an appointment?" Bonnie asked politely.

The woman smiled at Bonnie, it was a warm smile. "I'm Elena. I'm Damon's wife."

TBC…


I know you all probably hate me, but this is a Bamon story and some Delena. So yeah he has a wife…yikes! Everyone knows that Damon has a wife and he cheats on her every chance he gets because that is how it was back then actually the wives were so oblivious to it that husbands cheated on their wives…many times.

Well, I really hope you guys like this chapter and the next one will be…well you all will probably hate me for it. You're all probably wondering how Elena hasn't found out about his activities well, she's a housewife and her friends are as well. Stereotypical women you could describe them as. Also he was known as a womanizer before he met Elena so it's kept on the down low about his activities.

Stefan DOESN'T approve of Damon's actions and neither does Bonnie. So in the next chapter we will see how everyone has been putting own a "show" for Elena.

THANK YOU ALL FOR THE REVIEWS, FAVORITES, AND FOLLOWS. They mean so much to me especially when you guys say you like it. It really warms my heart and writing skills to go a lot faster.

I know I'm going to get a lot of reviews about the next two chapters because they seem so OOC and messed up, but it all fits in so give me time to explain more on the subject…I promise it will all make sense.
