An: Thank you joanna for letting me know the problem with chapter two, hopefully it's all better now!
Bonnie's mother had left without a word over four months ago just before she turned seven currently she was sitting in the backseat as her eyes watched the unfamiliar town pass her by. After all she hadn't been there since her Uncle married a man named Shawn and she was a flower girl; she was only three.
"So my brother says you got all A's again.", her uncle said looking through his mirror at her and saw her shrug. His brother had said after his wife left the girl hadn't been the same, which made sense. So instead of sitting in an empty home all summer she was staying with him and his husband. "Listen Uncle Shawn is at home right now, but we have to stop by the station there for a little bit. Then you can get settled in."
"Okay.", she said simply not taking her eyes from the passing houses. It didn't matter to her what they did. She just wanted to be back in Mystic Falls with her friends and her Grams. She had even fought her father about coming out here, but he said he had work. When she offered to stay with her Grams he simply said no, but she couldn't help think it was because he didn't like the witchy stories she told.
They pulled into the police station and she followed her uncle inside. As he made his way to his desk she looked around her eyes taking in all the people walking around. Suddenly she saw a man walk over to her uncle greeting him.
"Hey Rick how are you?", he said with a smile.
"Hey John, I'm good. How's Stiles behaving now that summers starting?"
"Not bad. He is spending time with his mother right now.", he turned his eyes falling on the small girl standing there. "Wait is that Bonnie?" She looked at him confused by how he knew her name. "God I haven't seen you in years."
"Not since the wedding when Stiles was the ring bearer and she was the flower girl.", her uncle chimed in. "My brother is having her stay here for the summer. Maybe her and Stiles can get together one of these days."
"Of course. I'm sure he'll be happy to see you and you can meet his friend Scott.", he smiled.
"Thank you, that sounds nice.", she responded.
They left the station after her uncle handed in his time card to the chief. Once finished they made there way home and Bonnie settled into her room. She loved both of her uncles, she really did, but she couldn't help but cry herself to sleep that night. This wasn't her home, her friends weren't there and her Grams. Most of all she wanted to be home encase her mother came back.
"Stiles, Claudia I'm home.", John called as he slid his shoes off. Seeing his son run the comer caused a large smile to form on his lips as he held out his arms for him. Stiles jumped into his arms.
"Dad! How was work? What did you do? Mom and me made some cookies and Scott came over to hang out. We had a Nerf war, I won of course.", he said his words flying from his mouth a mile a minute.
Claudia walked over wrapped in a robe placing on the cheek of her husband and her son. "It was a very intense war. Stiles fought very bravely."
"That sounds amazing. I'm proud of you. Now where are the cookies?", he grinned putting his son down. As they entered the kitchen he began to eat one. "These are amazing. Hey you know who is back in Beacon Hills?", he paused as his wife shook her head. "Bonnie, Rick's niece."
"Who's that?", Stiles asked before drinking his milk.
His mother thought for a moment trying to remember herself, but she couldn't remember.
"Here.", he went going to the living room bringing back a picture of Stiles and a beautiful girl dressed in white sitting next to him placing a kiss on his cheek. Below that a picture of the two sitting eating cake. "This is Bonnie, she was the flower girl."
He then went on explain to his wife about what the girl was going through. Having her mother leave her with no warning. It broke her heart and later that evening she called Rick and his husband inviting her over for a play date, hoping to help the young girl adjust to the town.
A couple days later Bonnie was dropped off at the Stilinski house by her uncle before he went to work. She entered the house greeted by John before he left he introduced her to his wife and son.
Once he was gone Claudia tried very hard to take care of the children, have fun activities with them, but a huge wave of depression washed over her. She hoped to sleep it off so she left them to play.
It was awkward for them at first not sure how to truly interact seeing as they were nearly strangers. They began to talk about super heroes Stiles even showed her some of his many comics.
"So you really don't have any of your own?", he said turning to her. All day he hadn't seen the girl smile, he began to wonder if she even knew how.
"No. My friend Matt had one, but he dropped it in the rain when he raced Tyler.", she said shrugging. "Caroline thinks it's for boys and Elena gets annoyed with them because that's all her brother talks about."
Suddenly the phone rang and he sprung to his feet picking it up. He knew how important it was for his mom to get her full nap when she laid down. "Hello... The park? Sure my mom's fine with it... I'll ride my bike there... Oh I have my dad's coworker's niece, so let your mom know so she packs another sandwich... Alright see you soon. Bye Scott!" He hung up the phone turning to write a note encase his mother woke up.
"What are you doing?", Bonnie's eyebrow raised as she stood following him.
"We are going to the park. Scott's mom is making a picnic there.", in a fast movement he nearly dragged her out of his home and got her to balance on the back pegs of his bike as he peddled down the street. Luckily the park wasn't far from his house and Bonnie was short even for their age.
When they got there Bonnie's eyes fell on a mother and a son setting up stuff at a picnic table. Her stomach twisted as she saw the woman kiss the boys forehead. Jealousy flooded her body, a feeling she was by no means used to. Yet it was there all the same. Stiles had his mother, even if she was sleeping and this boy's mother looked at him as if he was the world. Tears almost fell from her eyes as she walked with Stiles closer, she made sure to blink them away.
They all greeted one another and they treated Bonnie nicely. As the day moved on Stiles even managed to get a smile out of Bonnie, which soon became an easier task as the summer went on. Most of her time was spent spending time with Stiles and Scott. It became comfortable for her, the whole summer began to fly by. Claudia's began to show sighs that something was wrong. Mood swings began to occur along with depression. Yet Stiles and Bonnie found ways to have fun around the house, trying different ways to help her. Not knowing what was beginning to start with her.
At the end of Summer, the young girl had to say goodbye to her uncle and new friends. It was bittersweet for Bonnie. She got to go home to her father and friends, but she was saying goodbye to other people she had began to care about.
Memories of the summer time were forgotten as Stiles went through a difficult school year. His mother was diagnosed with a disease and her conditions began to get worse. Some nights her mood swings became more violent and she even started to attack the young boy.
Finally the school year ended and his mother was kept in the hospital permanently. On the night of her death Stiles watched the life leave her body. When his father arrived he was taken over by grief, yet he still had to be the adult filling out paperwork so he called his best friend to take him so he wouldn't have to stay in the hospital.
Rick drove the boy to his home. When they arrived he opened the door walking over to the steps. There Bonnie stood smiling even so slightly seeing Stiles, it had been nearly a year since the two had seen each other. She had over heard the conversation her Uncle had on the phone which was why she stayed awake waiting for him.
"What are you doing up?", he Uncle asked.
"I was waiting for Stiles to come.", she said walking down to him.
"You should be asleep.", he said shaking his head. "Why don't you take Stiles to the guest room, he can sleep on the second bed."
"Okay.", she said holding out her hand for him. He looked so different than the last time she saw him. His eyes were red from crying and she could tell that his mother had truly past on.
His brown eyes looked from her hand to her face and he hesitated afraid. Of what he didn't know. Still he took a breath and put his hand in hers. Something washed over him, a feeling of comfort. It in no means made him feel better, but he felt somewhat better.
As they sat in darkness he cried. Bonnie at first just laid in her bed staring at the ceiling. She herself to sleep many nights, many of them in this room. So she stood and moved over to the bed crawling into it.
"I'm sorry she's gone.", she said hugging him. At first he simply laid still trying to hold in his tears, but she let him feel as though he didn't have to. He didn't have to be brave so he just cried and she hugged him till they fell asleep.
AN: So anyway thank you all for the reviews! They mean a lot to me. Here is the back story of them, more flashbacks will occur later. I will also have more about how Bonnie died coming up next. So until next time loves!
