Bonnie decided to hold off telling Gram for as long as possible. Damon was talking her to school and brining her back every day. Bonnie was sure Gram would notice the car so she put an end to it. Instead, Damon would visit her late at night by climbing up to her window. It was romantic when you thought about it. He was a different guy under it all. He loved poetry, romance and was such a gentleman. He loved his family and even wished things were different between him and his brother.
"You're naturally beautiful you know that?" He said while running a finger along her cheek. Bonnie's eyes were closed as she rested the back of her head on his lap. He continued to caress her as they lay in her bed.
"What am I going to tell Gram?" She asked looking up and into his eyes. He smiled his usual breathtaking smile and she sighed.
"That's easy. Tell her the truth."
"But she doesn't like you. What if she rejects us?"
Damon's hand stopped and hurt sounded in his voice. "Would you stop seeing me if she told you to?"
Bonnie heard the hurt and sat up. She placed her hands on Damon's cheeks and kissed him. "Oh Damon. You know I won't."
Damon moved his hands to rest on top of hers and he leaned forward so that his forehead was touching hers. Somehow, he wasn't so sure about her answer. He knew how close she was to her Gram. She was the only parents she had. Why would she go against her? There was a time when Damon wouldn't have gone against his family himself. Things change, people change and Damon had changed.
No longer did Kathrine fill his thoughts but Bonnie did. No longer did he care about finding Kathrine. He wanted to make Bonnie happy. He wanted their relationship to last and all this sneaking around was driving him crazy. He couldn't convince Elena and Stefan that Bonnie wasn't glamoured. No one saw them together at school and when they did, they weren't very affectionate.
"I have to go." He finally whispered. It was a lie but he didn't want to stay there any longer. Already he was preparing for the worse. Bonnie nodded and they kissed each other good night. In the morning, Bonnie decided it was time.
"Grams, I have something to tell you."
Grams looked at her expectantly as she poured her a glass of orange juice.
"I'm" A long pause. "I'm going out with Damon Salvatore." She confessed.
"You're what!?" CRASH. A plate fell from the cupboard.
"I'm in love with him Grams." Bonnie continued and the crash sounded again.
"You are not in love with that boy! Do you remember that he tried to kill you?!"
Bonnie sighed. "I know but that was another Damon, another time. He's changed now." She smiled remembering his fondness.
"No, No, people like Damon Salvatore don't change! You will not see him you hear me."
Now the tables started rattling. "Didn't you tell me that love changes all? He's changed. He's not a killer anymore!"
There was a knock at the door. CRASH CRASH CRASH. Damon looked at both Elena and Stefan. He put his hands in his pant pockets and hopped on the balls of his feet.
"Looks like she's telling her."
Elena looked at him in disbelief. "Telling who what?" BOOM. "Oh my god. Bonnie! You in there! Bonnie." CRASH.
Without waiting for an answer, Elena barged in. Stefan and Damon followed.
"I told you I love Damon and I want to see him. Accept it or…….or……"
"Or what!?" Grams bellowed.
Elena got between the two as if they were exchanging blows. The floors rattled and so did everything seemingly in the house.
"Told you we were an item." Damon said and sat on the couch like it was nothing. Grams turned to Elena and Stefan.
"Oh so you knew? You, her best friend knew and didn't talk her out of it?" Grams was still angry. Elena shook her head.
"We didn't know. We thought he was lying."
Damon crossed his legs. "Why would I lie?"
Stefan rolled his eyes. "Dumb question."
"Look. All you guys need to relax. Bonnie is my little snuggie poo and that is that."
Everyone in the room all at once. "Snuggie poo?"
"Yeah, I made it up. Kinda cute isn't it?"
Grams raised her finger to her temple. "I need to sit down." Stefan made his way over to her and helped her to a chair. Elena sat down too. She looked at Bonnie who was trying to calm down like her Grams.
"So when did this happen and for how long?"
Bonnie opened her mouth but Damon answered. "It started a few months ago. We've been seeing one another for four months now." There was silence for a long period of time. It was Grams that broke the silence.
"Four months. Four months that you've kept this from me?" Tears formed in her eyes. "I want you to be able to tell me anything child."
"But I knew you would take it this way." Bonnie said.
"But still, we're all we've got."
Bonnie got up and hugged her Grams. "I know. I know" and she cried on her shoulder.
Elena turned to Damon. "I'm sorry we didn't believe you."
"It's ok really. I didn't believe it either at first if it means anything." Damon replied. Grams looked up at Damon.
"I'm warning you, you better not hurt her." She threatened.
"And have you witches as enemies again? Not a chance."
