The 60's Decade Dance decades prior:
"You, go find Stefan, now" Damon said to a wide-eyed Elena who nodded in response and promptly went to go find Stefan.
Bonnie looked up at Damon with fear and confidence as he narrowed his eyes and looked at the powerful witch.
"Can you kill him?" Damon asked, Bonnie dropped her current expression and began to smile and roll her eyes at Damon as she recognized the memory.
"Damon…what is this?" Bonnie curiously asked, remembering that this was around the time when Bonnie and Elena realized Klaus was possessing Alaric.
Damon smiled devilishly at Bonnie and grabbed a curl from her hair as he stepped closer and placed the curl over her shoulder.
"Are you willing to do whatever it takes" Damon seductively asked Bonnie, as he lifted his right hand to her cheek and rubbed it, Bonnie blushed at the soft contact of his hand on her face.
"Why here and now?" Bonnie asked, taking in the familiar forever frozen-in-time face in front of hers.
"I obviously couldn't say it then, so I want to tell you what I wanted to say, I wanted to start with, you look incredibly hot, in a very unpeaceful way unlike the necklace hanging from your neck, and you're lucky Klaus is in the way of me making a move on you on the dance floor, right in front of Jeremy, Elena, and the whole peanut gallery, in fact, I really need you to find this dress so you can wear it again, your ass would look even better it now" Damon widened his eyes and smiled, remembering how Bonnie smelled and felt when he danced with her, how powerful she was that night, and how good she looked that night in general.
"Ah, so you starting to care was actually you being gross and horny" Bonnie teased, cocking her head to the side as she smiled at Damon, Damon playfully scoffed.
"Three things can be true at the same time Bon-Bon" Damon teased back causing them both to laugh.
"I want to take us back to when we danced together, when I took you from Jeremy, I want to make my move" Damon raised his brows up and down as he grinned mischievously.
"You know..my magic has gotten pretty damn good, if you want a realistic roleplay I can recreate everything, including how everyone would have reacted, Hope and I actually perfected the spell to help replay certain events for students to see what they would have done, I've never used it for something as ridiculous but kind of hot like this.. so, once our time is up, the spell is over, and we're back to our reality" Bonnie smiled at the thought of it. Damon leaned down and grabbed her chin to place her lips on his.
After he kissed her, he pulled away and gave her an approving smirk.
"Alright witchy, I'll wake us up" Damon smiled at Bonnie who returned the smile before Damon woke them both up from letting himself into Bonnie's mind.
"Are you ready?" Bonnie groggily asked as she woke up and faced Damon, whose eyes were being illuminated by the fire in front of them.
"Absolutely" Damon responded as he squeezed her bare shoulder, taking a mental note that Bonnie felt safe enough, sub-consciously, to let him into her mind.
Bonnie grabbed his face with one of her hands and closed her eyes, without incanting a spell they were both suddenly in mystic falls in the middle of the 60's decades dance. Bonnie opened her eyes and almost jumped at the feel and smell of being held in Jeremy's arms dancing.
"Everything okay?" Jeremy asked Bonnie, before Bonnie could answer, Damon had come over.
"May I?" Damon asked, Jeremy sighed as he looked at Bonnie, nodded in defeat, and then walked away.
Damon grabbed Bonnie and immediately twirled her around and brought her back to him, Bonnie for some reason felt like she had butterflies in her stomach at being close to Damon like this knowing what they were going to do, even if what was happening around them wasn't real.
"Getting cold feet?" Damon asked as he brought her close to him, noting her wide-eyed expression.
"It's weird.. how being in this environment, this age, and with you, I immediately feel…I don't know-" Bonnie began to say.
"Judgey? Trying to repress how turned on you are?" Damon inquired as Bonnie looked around making sure no other vampire friends could hear them.
"I just..I would never let you make a move on me, not this night" Bonnie said quietly as she kept looking around her.
Damon stopped dancing and gently grabbed Bonnnie's face to look at him.
"Your body is saying something completely different, I could tell back then too, with enough buttons pushed your body would have betrayed the pedestal you and all of us put you on" Damon said as his other hand grabbed onto the small of her back and began to rub her back softly.
Bonnie immediately felt her body warm up under his touch as her body began to respond to his touch.
Damon bent down and whispered in Bonnie's ear.
"Don't look, just focus on me, we're being watched, and Stefan and Caroline are trying to listen, I'm going to grab your hand and try to take you out of here and into a classroom." Damon stood back up, grabbed Bonnie's hand, and tried to lead her out before being stopped by Stefan which made Damon chuckle.
"Damon" Stefan said with a stern voice and expression.
"It's fine Stefan" Bonnie said as she noticed Elena and Jeremy heading over which made her want to laugh.
"Yeah, Stefan, am I not allowed to get Bonnie a beverage, I need her to be properly hydrated for tonight." Damon gave Stefan a sarcastic smile, and then audibly groaned when he saw Elena and Jeremy getting closer.
Bonnie quickly dropped Damon's hand when she realized they were still holding each other's hands.
"Bonnie, are you okay?" Elena asked Bonnie after giving Damon a dirty look.
"You guys, I'm fine, I can handle Damon" Bonnie responded, exasperated. Bonnie looked at Jeremy giving him a "please help" look.
"Let's give them a moment, everything is fine" Jeremy smiled at Bonnie, who almost felt guilty because Jeremy was way too trusting.
"We do not have time for this, Klaus could be anywhere, now, if mall cop Stefan can move out of my way, we have things to discuss" Damon, shoulder-checked Stefan as he walked away with Bonnie following.
"Bonnie –" Stefan continued.
"I'm fine Stefan" Bonnie shot Stefan a stern look, ignoring Elena's doe-eyed confused expression as well. Bonnie felt the eyes of everyone behind her as she trailed behind Damon, wondering if they were thinking about the mission, or dissecting why Damon and Bonnie were way too close to each other.
Once they made it into the hallway away from everyone Bonnie started to laugh.
"Did you see their faces?" Bonnie laughed at the thought and then looked at Damon who was smiling at her with his hungry blue eyes.
"Unlock that door" Damon ordered Bonnie. Bonnie's heart began to race as she stopped laughing to pay attention to the moment. Bonnie turned towards the classroom door and waved her hand over the doorknob to unlock it.
They both slowly walked inside, keeping the light off and letting the light of the hallway illuminate the classroom.
Damon guided Bonnie to the desk and leaned her up against it, pinning her between himself and the teacher's desk.
"Damon-" Bonnie began as Damon pressed himself against her.
"Shh, it doesn't matter anyway," Damon said softly as he placed both hands at her waist and bent down to kiss her jawline down to her neck.
Bonnie began to softly moan as she let her body relax, she could feel Damon lowering his hands to hike up her dress. Damon then grazed Bonnie's neck with his teeth, light enough to not be painful but strong enough to release a few droplets of blood, as he was taking his time tasting her magical blood, he brought his hands back down to separate her legs slowly so he could have more access to her.
"Damon.. I need you now" Bonnie said in between her attempts to quiet her moans.
"Mmm.. Bon-Bon I know" Damon responded as he slowly rubbed his fingers in slow circular motions over her wet lacy underwear. Damon began to kiss Bonnie hungrily as Bonnie hopped up fully on the desk and wrapped her legs around him, feeling how hard he was against her.
Damon pulled away from the kiss and rubbed his nose on hers as he looked into her eyes.
"I will never forgive myself, you, and your line for keeping this from us" Damon growled with intensity in his blue eyes.
Bonnie and Damon at the same time could hear footsteps slowly getting closer to the door. Which made them both smile mischievously.
Damon quickly unbuttoned and unzipped his pants as he and Bonnie chuckled in between kisses.
Once Damon entered himself into Bonnie, they both let out loud groans as he slowly began to thrust himself into her.
Bonnie grabbed Damon's hair and threw back her head as she moaned at the feeling. Damon found his way back to her neck to get another taste of her blood, as his thrusts became faster, and Bonnie's moans became louder.
Bonnie instinctively, in the middle of her moans, looked out the window of the classroom door and made eye contact with a stunned Caroline and Stefan.
"Damon" Bonnie said breathily, trying to focus on her oncoming orgasm even though she was in the most ridiculous situation.
Stefan and Caroline quickly walked away from the window. Bonnie, not sure what was going to happen next, allowed Damon and herself to finish what they started.
Damon quickly pulled his pants back up to button and zip them up, and Bonnie pulled the skirt of her dress back down and ran her fingers through her hair as they tried to compose themselves.
"There's no hiding anything, our scents are all over each other" Damon smirked at Bonnie before bringing her in for another kiss before they walked out.
"Stefan and Caroline both saw," stated a flushed Bonnie, she was still kind of embarrassed but also annoyingly turned on by being caught.
"Good, sucks that this isn't our reality, I'm sure seeing you like that would have gotten himself through some lonely nights brooding with his right hand" Damon joked, Bonnie playfully hit Damon's arm and shook her head in response.
"I'll end the spell soon, I'm just curious about what's going to happen next, besides the me and Klaus thing" Bonnie was curious about how something like this would have gone in their reality. Damon nodded in agreement, also curious.
Damon and Bonnie left the classroom and looked around for anyone waiting for them. When they didn't see anyone, Damon shrugged, and they both walked back into the dance. As soon as they entered the dance, Caroline immediately grabbed Bonnie's arm and yanked her away from Damon, who was quickly being approached by Stefan.
"What in the entire fuck Bonnie!" Caroline yelled at Bonnie, Bonnie in this moment was thankful the music was loud.
"What did he do to you? Are you under a spell? I am going to kill him!" Caroline continued.
"Is it so wrong that I may be attracted to Damon?" Bonnie asked, wanting to break out in laughter because to be fair, this scenario would be so out of character for her.
"May be attracted? I would hope you would be since you two were just fucking on our science teacher's desk!" Caroline said, a little too loud for Bonnie's liking.
"What?" Elena asked as she slowly came up behind Bonnie and Caroline.
"You and Damon had sex? Just now?" Elena continued to question Bonnie in shock, Bonnie couldn't tell if it was shock from how jealous she probably felt or shock that Bonnie just cheated on her brother, probably a mixture of both, Bonnie thought to herself.
"Uhm, yes? Ahem..yes!" Bonnie quickly answered, not sure of what to say, because what could she say that would make sense.
"Bonnie..What has gotten into you?" Elena questioned in an accusatory tone.
"Well if you want to get technical…" Damon interjected as he and Stefan walked up to the girls.
Caroline, Bonnie, and Elena, all gave him a death stare, which made his smile widen even more.
Elena scoffed, shook her head, turned around, and stormed out into the hallway.
"You're an asshole Damon, and Bonnie… we will be talking about this later, what a shitty thing to do to Jeremy," Caroline gave them both angry looks before walking away to go after Elena most likely.
"Well," Bonnie sighed as she folded her arms.
"If my calculations are correct, this is close to the moment when Klaus makes himself known to me and Elena, and I don't want to relive that, are you ready?" Bonnie asked as she looked up at Damon smiling.
"Absolutely, bye brother" Damon grabbed Bonnie's hand and waved at Stefan with his free hand as she closed her eyes to break them of the spell, loving the dumbfounded expression on Stefan's face.
They quickly were back in the cabin in front of the fireplace under the blanket.
They both looked at each other and burst into laughter.
"You know, when normal people roleplay it's usually in costumes and cheesy dialogue, this takes the cake" Bonnie laughed as she snuggled back into Damon.
"What did Stefan say to you? I got the normal, what did he do to you, how could you, what has gotten into you" Bonnie recanted, shaking her head at the predictability of it.
"He said you were too good for me, and that Elena and Jeremy would never forgive us for betraying Jeremy, which was laughable for so many reasons you and I both know...he really emphasized that I would be your downfall and he would do everything in his power to protect you from me, you know, normal Stefan stuff" Damon's voice and mood changed as he thought about what Stefan said, Bonnie immediately took note of it and frowned.
"I got the feeling that what I did end up doing in our reality was a lot less terrible in his eyes than anything else" Damon tried not to let it get to him as he softly rubbed Bonnie's soft caramel skin.
"Well, to be fair, I was dating Jeremy at the time, we had that whole plan about Klaus, and we started to just now kind of care about each other, it would be a huge shock to anyone, he probably just thought you were taking advantage of me to get what you want, but hey, look at me" Bonnie sat up to sit on his lap so he could look at her.
"You have been anything but my downfall Damon, you have always been one of the only people I could and can count on, in my entire life. I…just wish I was allowed to love you like I do now, a long time ago." Bonnie gave him a slight smile as he rubbed both sides of her.
"You are so goddamn beautiful Bonnie," Damon said as he looked at her with the fireplace in the background, her green eyes shining down at him. Bonnie smiled.
"Damon, this, me and you, it isn't going to be easy, my mind hasn't even caught up with all of it, we have real threats ahead of us, real struggles, I have an entire magical empire to help run and take care of, and I can already feel myself getting consumed with this, with you" Bonnie said as she placed her hands on his chest.
"Is that the worst thing? We're pretty good at multitasking" Damon teased trying to lighten the mood before whatever Bonnie was going to continue to say. Bonnie chuckled.
"No, and that's the problem, I need to focus, and I can't do that with you looking at me like you do" Bonnie stated as Damon began to lightly graze his fingers up her sides.
"Touching me like you do" Bonnie continued as she felt her body betray her in this moment again.
"I love you Bonnie Bennett" Damon responded not letting his eyes off her.
"Loving me like you do" Bonnie tried to continue as Damon gripped onto her waist and moved her completely on top of his erection which caused Bonnie to bite her lip and him to let out a low groan.
As Bonnie began to slowly ride him, she placed her hands on the floor beside her to steady herself and arched her back as he took in her goddess-like figure as if Michelangelo sculpted her himself, Damon began to moan as he could feel her getting wetter for him. He brought his hands up to trace the curves of her body, wanting to memorize them more than he had already.
Bonnie let herself get completely lost in Damon as they clawed and grabbed at each other, switching between being rough and soft, almost like a metaphor for the relationship they always had with each other.
Once they both finally finished together, Bonnie reluctantly got up to go to the kitchen, not without one last kiss, to grab a glass of water before going back upstairs to shower and get ready for the day.
"Who needs alarms when the world has you two to moan and groan like a pack of wolves" Katherine said, annoyed at the lack of rest she got as she made her way down the stairs. Damon vamp-sped to stand behind Bonnie and jokingly placed his arms and hands over her body.
"Uhm Excuse you, this isn't a free show" Damon sarcastically said to Katherine who shot him a look of annoyance.
"I've seen and heard it all before, and I'm really disappointed that I could tell that Bonnie didn't fake it," Katherine responded as she walked past them to grab eggs and bacon from the fridge.
"Okay, that's my cue, Damon I still need to finish what I need to say, I'll see you upstairs" Bonnie took Damon's arms and hands off her, grabbed her water, and headed out of the kitchen to go upstairs. Damon started to follow before Katherine stopped him.
"Uh uh, you owe me, make this first, she's probably hungry too" Katherine grabbed the packet of bacon and slapped it on Damon's chest. Before he could say no Bonnie yelled from the stairs "Yes please, thank you!"
"No lingering eyes, I am not cooking naked for you, gross" Damon said as he turned on the stove and grabbed a pan.
"You wish, in fact, it's ruining my appetite, I'll be back down when it's done" Katherine gave Damon a sarcastic smile, and Damon mockingly returned the smile.
Damon brought up a plate to Bonnie once the food was done, noting that she was freshly showered.
"Hey, we could've done our part to save some water and done that together" Damon furrowed his brows at Bonnie who was rubbing lotion into her legs.
"Damon, that is precisely the point I was trying to make, you and I have got to be on hold until I know your life, my daughter's, and everyone else's isn't in danger. I'm in love with you, that I know for a fact, what I don't know, nor do I have the time for, is everything else in between that comes with that revelation. My world is not the same world you were a part of decades ago Damon." Bonnie explained and sighed when she saw that Damon still looked upset.
"Okay," Damon responded as he made his way to the bathroom.
"Just, okay?" Bonnie responded, genuinely surprised.
"What do you want me to say? I wasn't brought back to be on a honeymoon with you, I'm not stupid, I get it, but you can't have it both ways, so you and I? Not together, got it, understood, we are both free agents, colleagues, partners in mystical and magical crime, the Aragon to my Legolas, the Anakin to my Obi-wan, got it Bonnie" Damon said with a sarcastic smile, Bonnie widened her eyes with a confused face.
"Okay…I guess you do understand, thanks?" Bonnie responded in a confused tone.
Damon cocked his head to the side, smiled, and jokingly turned around and covered his butt as he walked into the bathroom and closed the door.
Bonnie shook her head and took a bite of her eggs and moaned at the taste of them.
Damon opened his door and stuck his head out.
"Uh uh, none of that" Damon sarcastically yelled before closing the door behind him.
Bonnie giggled and rolled her eyes as she grabbed her plate and headed downstairs to the kitchen.

Caroline and Stefan both cried in each other's arms, still holding onto each other tightly.
"I don't even care why or how, it's been so hard Stefan, it's been so hard" Caroline cried into Stefan's chest.
"I'm here now, I'm not leaving you again, I promise, where you go, I go" Stefan assured.
"You're stronger" Caroline laughed through her tears, feeling squished by Stefan's embrace.
"Damon and I got an upgrade" Stefan joked, which made Caroline pull away to look at him.
"You look older too, in a good way, I like it" Caroline smiled as she ran her fingers across his face before bringing her lips back to his.
Caroline pulled away from the kiss as she realized the reality of everything.
"Stefan, we need to go to Bonnie, Bastien's dead" Caroline said as she grabbed onto Stefan's arms.
"I know" Stefan responded with a solemn expression.
"She's okay, she's with Damon and Katherine –"
"KATHERINE?!" Caroline exclaimed before Stefan could finish.
"Stefan, she is absolutely NOT okay then, we are going..NOW" Caroline continued.
"Caroline, trust me, she is fine, she owes the Bennett line, just like me and Damon, that's why we're here, we all get a chance at a do-over, our last one" Stefan grabbed onto Caroline's hand to hold and squeeze it.
"I…okay, we can talk about more of this later, I need so much uninterrupted time with you" Caroline pulled herself back in to place her head on Stefan's chest.
Stefan kissed Caroline's forehead before picking her up like a bride and taking her back inside.

"I'm proud of you Em" Eamon said to Emeline as Emeline was reviewing all the information the heretic gave them while they worked in the high-tech underground lair under the chateau.
"Thanks…Eamon?" Emeline asked as she swiveled her chair around to face Eamon who was sitting next to her.
"Yes?" Eamon responded full attention on the brown-eyed girl in front of him.
"Something doesn't feel right about it, it was all….just a little too easy," Emeline recounted the mission in her head, how the plan worked, almost without any hiccups.
"Well..I don't know if you've seen yourself in defense and offense mode, but I have and did, and no way in any kind of hell would I be going up against you" Eamon shot Emeline a smile which made Emeline return the smile as she became more relaxed.
"You know, Hope talked to her, but Hope wouldn't tell any of us what she said…it's not good, that much I do know" Emeline turned her chair back around to look at the computer screen, which had security footage of the imprisoned heretic.
"I'm going to talk to her myself" Emeline concluded as she rolled her chair back to step out of it.
"No, not a chance, as much as I do not want to go toe to toe with you, I definitely am not trying to get on Hope and the Saltzman twin's bad side" Eamon stood up to block Emeline from moving past him.
"Eamon, I don't want to force my way through you, but I will if I have to, Hope isn't in charge, my mom is, and I'm her daughter so, that makes me in charge" Emeline stood up straight with confidence.
"Emeline, it is a no, end of story, we will wait until we hear back from your mom or Hope" Eamon continued, stepping closer to Emeline.
"End of story? God, you sound like my dad" Emeline retorted earning a stern and annoyed look from Eamon. Emeline continued to walk towards the door which caused Eamon to fire off one of his weapons that entraps witches and warlocks.
Emeline quickly incanted a spell that countered Eamon's weapon attack and instead entrapped Eamon.
Emeline walked towards Eamon and telekinetically held Eamon in place, not allowing him to speak.
"I'm sorry Eamon, I have to do this, no one has stood in the way of a Bennett witch and not suffered any consequences, please forgive me" Emeline stated with remorse as Eamon tried to break free from her hold.
Emeline incanted another spell that sent Eamon back to his room with the door locked.
Emeline took a few deep breaths, trying to not let the guilt of her actions get to her, she knew she had to get the answers for herself.
She made her way to the cell the heretic was in, a cell specifically built for heretic witches so they couldn't absorb any supernatural powers except their own vampiric magic.
"If it's not the heir to the Bennett throne," the heretic witch said from the dark corner of her cell.
"You and I both know, that capturing you was way too easy, what's your angle?" Emeline ordered as she crossed her arms.
The heretic laughed before walking to the impenetrable glass wall separating her from Emeline.
"Maybe you're that powerful, so many of us will never measure up to a Bennett, as hard as we may try" the witch mused as she studied Emeline's features.
"That may be true, but you were able to help carry out an attack without any of us catching on, if you didn't want to be found, you wouldn't be." Emeline responded.
"Maybe it's safer for me here than it is out there, I'm an apex predator that's trapped between few choices, live under the rules your mother and the ancient coven leaders put in place, or the hell one earth Adonis and your spineless aunt would create" the witch's face grew serious as she laid out her options.
Emeline gulped trying to hide her emotions about Sabre's involvement.
"You're a murderer" Emeline spouted.
"So are you, your mother's empire is built on the blood of many, and thanks to Caroline's involvement with Sabre and the word vomit she has because someone shows her consistent attention, Sabre knows your mother's weaknesses, and the weaknesses of her newly resurrected friends. That is how we were able to attack, both times, when we killed your delusional grandmother and members of your supernatural court" the witch continued, pleased with herself as Emeline was getting visibly angry.
"None of you will win this war" Emeline retorted.
"I don't care who wins, I just enjoy the chaos" The heretic placed her hand on the glass.
"Either way, you all are too late, Adonis and Sabre will have an equal playing field, both are way more skilled than your band of powerful underdogs, I can only hope that you won't get yourself killed picking the wrong side" the heretic took her hand off the glass and went back to her corner.
"Equal playing field, what do you mean?" Emeline asked, the witch ignored her which caused Emeline to become angry again.
"Answer me! You can't enjoy the chaos if I kill you" Emeline yelled, shocking herself at how quickly that came out of her mouth.
The vampire-witch laughed before vamp-speeding back to the glass, startling Emeline.
"Do it" The heretic taunted.
"Prove my point, you'll only strengthen the cause" The heretic continued.
"Don't think I won't" Emeline responded getting angrier.
"You're right, too much like your father, a lot of talk but no action, you both are such a disappointment to your mother and your Bennett line, I guess the fire Bonnie holds didn't pass along like we all thought, at least you'll get to join your father sooner than you think" the heretic taunted.
Emeline, not being able to control her emotions telekinetically destroyed the cell the heretic resided in and the surrounding cells, causing all the prisoners on that wing to break free and alarms to go off.
Emeline focused her power on the heretic and pinned the heretic witch to the wall by her throat.
The heretic laughed maniacally and grabbed onto Emeline's neck trying to absorb as much power as she could before Emeline with her other hand pierced the heretic's ribcage and grabbed her heart. Before Emeline could kill her, another prisoner came behind Emeline and incanted a spell that teleported them out of France.

"No, absolutely not, you can't wear that Bonnie," Katherine said as she saw the dress Bonnie picked out to wear to the speakeasy, it was a plain long-sleeved dress.
"It's cold? Why wouldn't I?" Bonnie asked as threw up her hands, tired of trying on dresses.
"Bonnie, these people look up to you and you need to look the part, you need to look devastatingly powerful and dangerous," Katherine said as she brought her finger to her lips and tapped her mouth as she thought about outfit options.
"I saw something out there, I'll go grab it," Katherine said as an idea came to her.
"Okay hurry, Damon is going to kill us for how long we're making him wait" Bonnie yelled at a quick Katherine who had already turned around.
"He can definitely try!" Katherine yelled back.
Bonnie slid off the dress and looked at herself in the mirror, wondering what glamour spell to do for her hair and makeup.
"Got it!" Katherine came back quickly with a black lacy and beaded, two-piece dress, the top had just enough fabric to cover Bonnie's chest and the sleeves were flowy and off the shoulder, with the skirt being long, lacy, and flowy with a high slit.
"Uhm okay, do I get a matching jacket?" Bonnie asked looking at the beautiful barely there outfit.
"You're one of the most powerful witches Bonnie, I'm sure you can keep yourself warm" Katherine countered, laying down the jewelry and heels to go with the dress.
Katherine had picked out an intricate black and midnight blue jeweled layered necklace, with matching stiletto heels to go with the outfit.
"Okay, I'll change, I'll be out in a moment," Bonnie said with an exasperated smile, Katherine smirked and quickly left Bonnie to change.
Bonnie admired Katherine's outfit choice, and the whole shopping trip reminded her of the times she and Elena would get ready together. Katherine decided to wear a long red velvet halter neck dress with her hair pinned up in curls, Katherine let Bonnie pick out her dress, so Bonnie felt it was fair that she wore what Katherine picked.
Once Katherine left Bonnie began to put her pieces of clothing on, and finally did a glamour spell to give herself a smokey eye with hints of midnight blue in the eye shadow and opted to have her hair in a high-slicked back long ponytail. Bonnie looked at herself in the mirror and was almost taken aback. She thought to herself that she looked like she could be queen of the underworld. Once she stepped out, the workers in the store audibly gasped, Katherine quickly compelled them, as Bonnie paid for her outfit, to not remember they were there and to erase all video footage due to how quickly Bonnie obviously changed her entire look.
Once Bonnie and Katherine stepped out of the store with their umbrellas Damon immediately wanted to say screw everything Bonnie and him agreed on and go back to the cabin. Damon vamp sped out of the car to open the door for Bonnie to get in the front seat.
"Thank you, Damon, I can open my own door you know" Bonnie smiled, slightly blushing at how she could sense how Damon felt seeing her due to the Archambeau blood that also flows through her veins.
"I'm hoping if I pull out all the stops, I'll get a 5-star rating" Damon winked at Bonnie as she laughed and stepped into the car with his help. Bonnie and Damon immediately felt the warm electricity as their hands made contact, which made it harder for them both to remain "professional".
Damon walked back to the driver's side and tried his best to pay attention to the road once they started driving so he wouldn't get lust drunk off Bonnie's otherworldly appearance.
"I talked with Stefan" Damon announced trying to distract his racing thoughts.
"Oh, good, is my daughter still with him? She hasn't responded to my calls, and I made a promise to her I would never magically pry" Bonnie also tried to focus on the road ahead of her, she forgot how good Damon looked in a black button-up.
"No, actually, Stefan and Lexi made a detour to Mystic Falls, Stefan needed to see Caroline" Damon continued, gripping the steering wheel, as he fought the urge to place his hand somewhere on Bonnie.
"Mystic Falls? Caroline is supposed to be in France, why are they in Mystic Falls?" Bonnie anxiously asked, now turning her head to face Damon. Damon realized he was saying way too much, not wanting Bonnie to call everything off to either go to Emeline or Caroline.
"Really Damon? This couldn't wait?" Katherine asked in a snarky tone.
"Damon!" Bonnie exclaimed.
"How is this now my fault? Stefan knows we will be meeting back up with them soon, they're counting on us to follow this lead through" Damon made a sharp turn on the street they needed to be on.
"Is my daughter safe or not?" Bonnie asked, knowing she could magically pry.
"Yes, she's with her friends in France, she kicked ass in London, you'd be very proud" Damon instinctively placed his hand on her thigh and squeezed it, Bonnie blushed and quickly moved her legs in response which made him place his hand back on the wheel.
"She does kick ass doesn't she," Bonnie said out loud smiling to herself, ignoring the feeling of Damon's hand on her thigh, even if it was for a moment.
Katherine let out an audible sigh, bored by the interaction but also intrigued because they both had been acting weird all day. She decided that watching them interact at this point was better than any entertainment on tv.
"So-" Katherine said before she was interrupted.
"Nope, we're here anyways" Damon cut Katherine off knowing she saw Bonnie quickly pull away from Damon's touch.
"Good, because the tension in this car is suffocating, and I still need a good drink to scrub last night's and this morning's Sex and the Cabin episode from my memory" Katherine said in a sarcastic tone before getting out of the car.
"Hey, try to keep the longing stares and wanting to be close to me, to a minimum Damon, the word about Bastien still has not gotten out, and it just-" Bonnie began to say
"Understood, I'll play the role of the sexy strong bachelor vampire," Damon said with a smirk.
"Thanks Damon" Bonnie shot him a sympathetic smile, wishing she could kiss him with him but didn't want to make the situation worse for them.
Damon raised his eyebrows in response, before getting out of the car to give the valet his keys. Bonnie immediately felt exposed once she got out of the car and caught the attention of everyone around her.
"Since you two are being weird, I'll escort you inside," Katherine said as she offered her arm for Bonnie to take. Damon trailed behind them as if he were their bodyguard. Once they made it inside, they were led to a hidden door in the club that took them to the supernatural speakeasy.
The moment they made it inside, the patrons immediately noticed Bonnie, and immediately started to whisper among themselves before a woman made her way to Bonnie.
"Bonnie Bennett Archambeau, it is an honor, you look..breathtaking as usual" Greeted Alexandria, a well-known witch in Seattle.
"Will your husband be joining you tonight?" asked Alexandria after looking at Katherine and Damon and then at Bonnie.
"No, just me tonight, I hear there is a lot to discuss" Bonnie quickly answered with a smile not missing a beat.
"These are…some old friends" Bonnie turned to look at Damon and Katherine who were sizing up Alexandria and the patrons in the speakeasy.
"The old gang from Mystic Falls, Damon and…Elena.. or Katherine?" Alexandria mused.
"Katherine Pierce, Elena could never pull off this dress …Damon and I are going to grab a drink, we will catch up with you two later" Katherine grabbed Damon's arm, and with Bonnie's nod of approval, Damon and Katherine headed to the bar.
"Fascinating, I thought I knew everything I needed to know about you and your world…that will have to wait, come Bonnie, let me introduce you" Alexandria grabbed Bonnie's hand and led her to a dimly lit sitting area in the back that featured a variety of supernatural beings.
A witch, a warlock, and two vampires, Bonnie didn't recognize any of them, but they all seemed to be well acquainted with who she was. Bonnie could sense the power coming from the warlock which intrigued her.
"My condolences," The warlock said to Bonnie as they locked eyes, Bonnie was immediately caught off guard because she knew what he was referring to.
"Yes, we lost many loved ones from the attack in France, we actually have some good intel for you, Laurent had a feeling you'd make your way to us soon, so it's not a surprise to any of us you're here" Alexandra continued as Bonnie finally stopped making eye contact with Laurent and turned her attention back to Alexandria.
"It was..awful and unsettling.. as well as a huge shock, and I promise an attack like that won't happen again" Bonnie calmly responded.
"If you're here, is Bastien back in France, it's been nothing but silence from our allies across the pond" Stavros, one of the vampires chimed in.
"We can trust that everyone else is safe, for now, the biggest thing is the OWIA is compromised, any communication you have with them right now Bonnie needs to be severed" Laurent cut in, saving Bonnie from reacting to Stavros bringing up Bastien.
"And Bonnie, over the years, you and your friends have made quite a few enemies, and I am afraid that one of them has resurfaced" Alexandria pulled up a picture from her holographic device that showed a brown-haired woman that felt familiar to Bonnie.
"Isolda, a heretic, she had an affair with a traveler, one you are well acquainted with" Stavros pulled up the next holographic photo which featured Markos which actually shocked Bonnie.
"She holds grudges, clearly, she also has an erratic twin sister, they're both extremely dangerous and have been plotting against you, specifically for decades" Alexandria continued as they all had their eyes on Bonnie.
"All because Markos got himself and his followers killed?" Bonnie angrily questioned.
"Because you and your friends somehow keep coming out on top with no repercussions" Alexandria continued as she nervously bit her lip, knowing that's not how she personally felt but it was the truth of some supernaturals.
Bonnie laughed and shook her head.
"No repercussions? Have I not suffered continuously since I came into my magic? I have given everything, I am the most powerful witch on this planet and somehow I still – " Bonnie continued before Laurent interjected.
"Face hurdles every day, yes Bonnie, none of us share these sentiments" Laurent looked at Bonnie and made sure their eyes connected so he could speak to her telekinetically.
"Our world cannot know that Bastien is dead Bonnie, and they cannot know that you are in love with a vampire brought from the dead so soon after, not yet, you need allies, Adonis is using the army you helped create to assist him in creating his own army of the undead, you may win on your own, but not without great loss, including the ones that have received a second chance," Laurent said to Bonnie.
"I'm going to grab a drink" Bonnie said to the table as she got up, feeling overwhelmed at the information.
"We can get one for you Bonnie" Alexandria motioned for someone to come to the table.
"No, I need to walk around, and clear my mind," Bonnie responded as she gave Alexandria an unconvincing smile. Not wanting to argue, Alexandria let Bonnie go.
Bonnie made her way to the bar and noticed a few girls hanging onto Damon's every word. Bonnie didn't think much of it until Damon leaned down to whisper in the girl's ear which caused the girl to giggle. Bonnie zeroed in on the girl's emotions and felt the girl getting turned on which caused Bonnie to feel a pang of jealousy.
"He's definitely still got it," Katherine said to Bonnie as she walked up next to her at the bar.
"Oh, I don't doubt it, we all have a part to play," Bonnie said quietly to Katherine, ignoring the pit she felt in her stomach.
"From someone who loved Damon at a point in time, don't underestimate what he'd do just to soothe his own bruised ego, he may have matured in some ways, but he's still Damon" Katherine responded as she looked in his direction. Assuming Bonnie rejected Damon in some way.
Bonnie ignored what Katherine said and ordered her drink, she quickly glanced back at Damon who was now grabbing the hand of the girl and guiding her away from the bar. Bonnie tried to ignore the jealousy she was feeling and focus on why they were there instead-but found herself ignoring everything she just learned and only caring about Damon being way too close to a bottle-blonde witch.
"Careful Bonnie, everyone is watching you here, they're scared of you and admire you, but are definitely watching your every move," Katherine said as she leaned in to whisper in Bonnie's ear.
"Let me just make sure he's not causing any problems, request something loud to start playing and I don't know, do what you do best" Bonnie gave a fake smile and patted Katherine's shoulder.
Katherine thankfully didn't need any coercion to liven up the place and promptly made her way to the DJ to request a song so she could get the party going. This plan worked since the attention was now all on Katherine who was dancing in the middle of the floor to Blondie's song "Heart of Glass".
Bonnie made her way towards the direction she saw Damon and the witch head to and noticed they were sitting in a secluded smoky area where different supernatural beings were gathered, smoking a magical herb.
Bonnie saw the girl sitting in Damon's lap, laughing, and flirting with Damon as Damon kissed the witch's bare shoulder. When he looked up, he made eye contact with Bonnie and gave her a devilish grin which made Bonnie angry.
Bonnie immediately stormed out of the area and went down a hall towards the bathroom, not caring if Damon went after her.
Bonnie quickly swung open the door and was thankful no one else was in the dark bathroom lit only by the neon purple and pink signs on the walls.
Bonnie walked over to the mirror so she could take a deep breath to focus on why she was at the speakeasy, to begin with. Before she could gather her thoughts Damon waltzed through the bathroom door.
"Spell it shut" Damon ordered as he walked in.
"No, I was just leaving," Bonnie said to Damon as she tried to walk past him.
Damon grabbed Bonnie's arm so she wouldn't walk out, Bonnie wanted to hurt him so he would let her go but she couldn't deny how it felt to finally be alone with Damon.
"It wasn't going to go farther than that, but hey, we're colleagues at best right now so even if it was – " Damon began to say.
"On that note, I'm leaving" Bonnie quickly interjected.
"Then leave Bonnie, you know where to find me once it's time to go," Damon said with a serious tone as he furrowed his brows.
"Okay" Bonnie returned still standing there facing Damon, wanting nothing more than to grab him and lay her claim.
"Okay" Damon echoed with a wild look in his eyes taking in Bonnie's vanilla, fire, and sandalwood scent he could recognize anywhere.
After a moment of looking at each other under the neon lights in the dark bathroom, letting the muffled music fill the silence. Damon grabbed Bonnie as he vamp sped and took her to one of the stalls. Once the stall was shut behind them Damon quickly grabbed Bonnie's face and kissed her hungrily, Bonnie bit his lip in the process.
"If you think that's going to piss me off it's doing quite the opposite witchy" Damon continued to kiss down Bonnie's face to her chest and hiked up her leg to wrap around his waist.
"We may not be together Damon, but don't underestimate how quickly I can rip hers and your heart out if you touch her again when we are breathing the same air" Bonnie breathily ordered as Damon kissed and nipped at different parts of her exposed skin.
"She gave me valuable intel on a certain relative of yours" Damon responded in between kissing Bonnie's body.
Bonnie placed a hand on Damon's chest and lightly pushed him off her.
"Relative?" Bonnie asked which made Damon roll his eyes and groan.
Damon sighed knowing that the next bit of information would kill the moment instantly but knew he had to tell her.
"Qetsiyah, she's in New York City, she stole herbs from Blondie's sister's shop" Damon stated in an annoyed tone.
"Damnit, she's going to be a problem, it's only a matter of time before she comes and looks for me and then I have to kill her" Bonnie stated with an angry look in her eyes, as she actively thought about all the different threats around her. Bonnie almost turned to walk out before Damon pulled her into him and brought her mouth to his.
"You're going to wish you never had her in your lap Damon" Bonnie teased as she felt Damon's erection.
"Hey, I will do whatever I can if it ultimately means protecting you, the moment you left I got up and practically threw her to the ground," Damon said with a smirk, causing Bonnie to let out a genuine giggle.
"That's so rude Damon" Bonnie purred, as her hand made it down to the front of his pants which made Damon groan.
"Am I supposed to care?" Damon asked as he grabbed Bonnie's waist and brought a hand down to squeeze her ass.
Bonnie grabbed Damon's head to pull him back into a kiss before she let go which caused Damon to sigh at the sudden loss of contact as she finally broke free from his hold and opened the door after kissing him.
"That is so rude Bonnie" Damon said as he enjoyed his view watching her walk away.
"Am I supposed to care?" Bonnie said as she smiled and turned around before shutting the door behind her.
As Bonnie walked away blushing and smiling, Alexandria eyed Bonnie from the other end of the hall and walked into the bathroom after her, curious as to who she was just talking to. When she walked in, she found Damon walking to the sink, smiling and wiping at the lipstick near his mouth.
"Oh..sorry" Alexandria said in shock, before turning around and quickly leaving the bathroom before Damon could say anything.
Alexandria quickly started panicking not knowing what to do with the pieces she put together, wondering if Bastien knew about Bonnie. Alexandria pulled out her phone to message one of her allies in France on whether Bastien was there, and if so, what was going on between Bonnie and Bastien.
