The Salvatore Home
When Bonnie and Damon arrived home with Kenzie they found Zoe and Dylan sleeping on their bed with the twins in the middle. When Damon saw this he went straight to his study and locked the door behind him.
"Is dad angry at me?" Kenzie asked her mom in a soft lost voice when Bonnie came into her room.
"Come here." Bonnie said and hugged her daughter. "His just tired we all are and he copes with stressful situations better when his alone."
"Dad can help Antwone. He is on the founders council and have a lot of say. He can talk to sheriff Mitchell to drop the charges."
"Your dad can try but it won't be that easy Kenz. Drug charges are taken serious here in Mystique Lake." Bonnie said and wrapped her arms tighter around Kenzie.
"But he is innocent mom." Kenzie said as tears rolled down her cheeks.
"I know honey. I can see he's a good kid and we will do what we can to help. Now get some rest. Its already three o clock in the morning." Bonnie said and kissed Kenzie on the cheek.
"Thank you mom for believing me." Kenzie said softly. Bonnie smiled and softly closed the door.
Before she went down to the living room she check up on the kids in her and Damon's room. Removing Dylan's toy gun from his hand. She laughed softly. She can already hear him say the gun is to protect Zoe and the twins from robbers. She kissed them each on the cheek before going down to the living room with a blanket in hand. Bonnie made herself comfortable on the couch and closed her eyes.

Estelle and Stacy both decided to stay at home when Kenzie send them SMS's that she's not going to school today. Dressed in their uniforms they came over to her.
"Good morning Mrs Salvatore. Can we see Kenzie?" Stacy asked when Bonnie opened their front door for them.
"Good morning girls. She's in her room." Bonnie said.
"Thank you Mrs Salvatore."
Bonnie went back to the kitchen to finish breakfast. Their home phone ring and Bonnie picked it up. It was Mrs Thornburg. The old lady wanted to know if Kenzie was still locked up and if Bonnie wanted her to take care of the twins. Bonnie had to explain carefully that Kenzie's not locked up and the twins are fine. Their all fine and thank Mrs Thornburg for her kind gesture.
Her cell phone ring. It was Caroline.
Caroline: Hey how you holding up Bon?
Bonnie: Just another bump in the road to straightened out and you? You should take it calm I don't want you to get worked up Care.
Caroline: That's what Stephen also said. Is it wrong to crave for a drink right now?
Bonnie: Yes it is. Don't drink. This whole thing will blow over soon.
Caroline: Your right and then the fucking gossip queens of this town will have something new to gossip about.
Bonnie laughed and said.
Bonnie: We'll talk later bye Care.
Caroline: Talk later!
Dylan and Zoe came in and greeted their mom.
Breakfast ready? I'm starving." Dylan asked.
"Yeah just about done and I want to thank you for protecting your sister and the twins. You stepping up as the man of the house when dad and Alex is not here." Bonnie said with a smile and ruffled Dylan's hair.
"What? Mom I had to tell him a bedtime story just to calm him down and I had to go look for his bullets in his room because he was to afraid to walk pass Justin's room." Zoe said and giggled.
"She's lying. I had to stay and protect the twins that's why I send her and I didn't listen to her bedtime story. The twins did." Dylan said upset and glared at his sister.
Zoe rolled her eyes and said. "Whatever makes you sleep at night."
"Cut it out. Your brother meant well Zoe. Finish up Dylan or else your going to be late for school."
"Is Alex and Justin going to be okay mom?" Zoe asked.
"Of course they are princess. They did nothing wrong." Bonnie answered her youngest daughter.
...
Damon was in the shower. The water from the sprinkler at its hottest but he barely felt it. He welcomed the burning sensation on his cold skin. Seeing Alex in a jail cell really disturbed him more then he let on. His boy shouldn't be in there, no, he should.
"Damon! Are you trying to burn yourself? Bonnie asked and turned the water off. She took him by his arm and walked him out of the shower.
He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her on the mouth. Bonnie could smell the bourbon on his breath. "I'm fine Bon Bon. I need to get dressed, you know where my navy tux is? Can't find it in my closet." Damon said and walked to his closet.
...
Dylan just left for school on his bike when Keira showed up at the Salvatore's home. "Your sister here?" She asked Zoe.
"Yeah in her room. Aren't you going to school?" Zoe asked.
"Nah got better things to do. Can you show me to your sisters room?"
"Yeah sure follow me." Zoe said to her.

"Hey" She greeted them.
"Hi" They greeted back.
"Heard what happened." Keira said to Kenzie.
"You must be glad you weren't there it was horrible." Estelle said.
"So, are you going to mope all day or are we going to do something about this?" Keira asked.
