Chapter 15,

I just thought someway I have to match you
So don't be defensive
No, no, don't try to pretend to
Look surprised

Dear Elena

Since my little episode a couple of days ago, I've limited myself to what I can and can not do anymore. For one I am literally always in my sweatpants. Some days, I decide 'hey why not switch it up' and then I just wear the black ones instead of the greys.

Enzo hates them…

He literally cringes every morning when I come out my room in either the grey or the black ones.

"You know in my day," He said stirring my coffee as I walked to the counter one morning in my sweats, "Our attire was completely uncomfortable and somewhat unnesasary. So much so that when the times started changing and so did my clothes, I was happy with the amount of comfort a pair of jeans provided."

"I actually am starting to think you have a point," I say taking my coffee, "But I can't be too sure because you're giving off too much information."

"My point being that there's comfort right?" He points at his attire which is naturally just black jeans and a v neck tight grey sweater. If I didn't know any better I would've swore my body just reacted to that fact, "And then there's whatever you're wearing right now!"

I glare at him and turn back to go and sit down at the dining room table and open Virginia's diary. I'm actually pretty upset with myself that I haven't read much I've been too…I don't even know how to describe the feeling.

"You know Enzo," I look at him from the table, "My attire doesn't make me any less of a person, the same way it doesn't make you any more of one."

"I realized that." He says sipping his coffee. I had a feeling that we weren't talking about my attire and something else. He knew that, "Bonnie-"

"No, absolutely not," I shake my head and look back at the diary, "I don't wanna talk about it."

"I think we should?"

"Why?" I look at him, "Because we're friends…we're partners?" He looked hurt by this assessment but I just continued, "In case you haven't noticed it was only about a year ago, give or take, you saved my life and before that we hated each other."

"Saved your life?" Enzo grinned at me. Urgh this was not the time for his smugness at me.

"Out of everything I have just told, that's what you're choosing to listen to." I look at him as he walks over to the table with his coffee.

"It's just funny because give or take a year ago," He smiles at me, "You kept going on and on about how I kidnapped you. I'd say that's progress."

I just stare at him…at this moment writing this Elena I looked back in my diary and remembered how exactly how I used to just go on about how he kidnapped me. How we would fight because we didn't make each other anything let alone coffee and now it came naturally. I just look down.

"I met MJ after you brought me back to life," He said looking at me. I look up at him. All traces of humour gone, "I was trying to help find a way to bring you and Damon back from the prison world…my first instinct was to look for witches."

I didn't know why he was telling me this but I didn't interrupt him, I just looked at him, "I was in Philadelphia that day looking for a witch. Turned out that witch had passed on a long time ago." he sipped his coffee, "Anyway, she was there and she was being shouted at by some police woman…be bombarded with the fact that she was useless and how she would amount to nothing. For that moment I felt anger towards this woman because here was this kid that probably didn't have much of a family and didn't have much to go on by." He looks down and then at me, "I was about to go drain the blood out of that polices neck until the he curled up on the floor in pain. Screaming and screeching and I saw how MJ was staring at him with these eyes…eyes that…I can't even describe it but it was then and there that I wanted to help her. I rushed over, stopping her concentration, and compelled the officers to forget what just happened." He smiles a little, "She didn't fear me or question what I was…she simply said thank you. Now that I think about it, that was the first and last time she ever said it." He chuckled a little at his own assessment and then sighed, "She even helped a little trying to find ways to bring you back….and um Damon of course." He shakes his head a little, "So yeah, since then I've compelled her good homes and helped her to do whatever it is she wanted. She's the one who wanted to make a powers a source of business…who am I to question a kids dream right?"

I look down at my hands that are knitted together and then said, "Um…Enzo…thank you."

"What for?"

"For trying to save my life again." I shrug, "And Damon's of course."

"Of course." He said smiling, "The point of what I'm trying to tell you Bonnie is that…I may have killed Magenta but I see something in MJ I never saw in her great grandmother."

"What's that?"

"Me." He shrugged, "That orphaned child that had nothing. A mother who left this world at a young age…and the whole world thinking nothing of you even when you're trying to make a name for yourself for today." He sighs and just drinks his coffee. I would have swore I heard a quiver in his lip.

So I decide to say, "I don't think low of you." He looks at me and then smiles after a moment.

"You think of me?" He says smugly annoying me again.

"Just barely!" I say to him sarcastically and then look at him, "MJ's a good kid Enzo…I'm glad she has someone like you looking out for her."

"Does this mean, you'll take off the sweat pants?"

I glare at him, "No!" I stand up and pick up the diary to walk to the couch, "Enzo, I need a favor?"

"I'm listening."

"Virginia St John spoke about a guy named Michael Craine." I said sitting down, "She was in love with him."

"What significance does this have on you?" Enzo says taking his mug to the kitchen.

"My Grams knew a Craine Coven." I said shrugging.

"What?" Enzo said blankly.

"I don't know if there's a connection," I say to him, "But wouldn't hurt looking I guess…considering that the last Craine she knew, she married."

"Wait? What?" Enzo says rushing over to me, "Your grandmother married a man that was part of another coven."

"It's not uncommon Enzo," I roll my eyes, "Some witches believe sometimes that instead of allowing a bloodline to continue, we'd rather allow witches to continue as a specie. "

"What happened to Virginia's boyfriend?" Enzo asked.

"He disappeared." I say to him and then look up when I realize that maybe he didn't disappear, "Or did he?"

"I bet my cousin would have a lot to say about this."

"I bet she would." I say to him, "Because technically…my bloodline is linked to his."

"You don't say." Enzo says standing up and grabbing his jacket, "I should be back soon."

"Where are you going?"

"Would you look at that," Enzo looks at his watch, "I think I'm long overdue for a family meeting with Alex. I'll see you soon."

And just like that he was gone...

I didn't want to continue doing research, so I decided to procrastinate the only way I knew how…

I picked up Enzo's guitar.

Authors Note

Thanks for all the rad reviews J it makes me happy…

Just a side note, I know it's taking long to lead up to event but what I'm trying to do is capture every moment where there was a switch. I mean we have always seen how Bonnie and Enzo have had unspeakable tension but now I want to capture the moments where they actually fell in love. That's my end goal is their love story.

Also in doing these small diary entries like this one, it's mostly to capture the fact that none of us really know anything about Enzo and to think about it we are very limited in the information we know about Bonnie too. I'm sorry it feels like the suspense is killing you but I hope that when the chapter you're all anxiously awaiting (we all know what scene this is) It will be worth it.

Remember MJ, because she may become something of importance later on in this fan fic, as well will characters like Big Joe and Maria (remember her; the psycho bitch I created).
