The Salvatore Family

Chapter 17: True Love

We didn't talk at all and when we got back in the castle I hadn't left my room since the "incident" and didn't plan on coming out anytime soon.

I had just done the unthinkable! Kissing Damon Salvatore was on the no-no list, right? I just watched TV as I sat cuddled up in my blanket on my bed. The whole room was dark and Caroline figured I had the flu.

The voices in front of my door brought me out of my thoughts.

"Damon, I'm afraid Bonnie may have the flu and I don't want you getting sick as well.", I heard Caroline say, trying to keep Damon entering.

"But I need to see her!", he shouted getting closer to the door.

"What could be so important it couldn't wait until she was better?", Caroline was not one to back down easily.

"I accidentally did something that may or may not have something to do with her locking herself in her room!", he said making me freeze.

He thinks he did this? I frowned, but quickly shot off my bed at the sound of unlocking the door. He's coming in, was all I were thinking as I locked myself in my bathroom. I slid to the floor, blanket still around me, as the door to your bedroom swung open.

"Bonnie?", Damon called flipping on the light switch as she looked for me.

His hand settled on my bathroom door as he figured it to be locked.

"Bonnie, I'm so sorry. Would you forgive me if I told you I didn't do that on purpose?", he sounded so pitiful as he talked.

"Did what, Damon?", I asked as my curiosity got the better of me.

"The kiss. It was just an accident, Bon. What I mean is, I was caught by the moment. I'm really sorry.", he answered quietly.

I was silent as overwhelming emotions took over. A sigh left his lips as he turned away from the door. "I hope this...", he was interrupted by me unlocking the door and tackling him in a hug.

"You don't need to be sorry, you idiot!", I grinned.

"Damn right, I should!", he was furious at himself. "But I can promise you it won't happen ever again.", he said, leaving the bedroom.

"It's not my business, but I've heard everything.", Caroline appeared at the door. "How are you feeling?"

"I'm fine.", I said.

"You don't look fine.", she noticed.

"Then stop looking.", I said jumping on the bed.

"Look, I know you two are forced into this marriage. And I know it's not easy to be with him, because he knows to be an asshole sometimes. But I know he did not think what he said. You will see, soon you will fall in love and live happily ever after.", Caroline convinced me.

I laughed. "Caroline, I don't believe in fairy tales. And you shouldn't too.", I was rough. "And you're right, it's not your business. Can you please leave alone?", she nodded and left the room.

I was bitch to her and I know she didn't deserve it, but I was just angry at Damon. Because he's kissing me one second, and the other says that will never happen again. I'm also angry at myself. Because I've allowed him to kiss me. To put his stupid lips on mine. Now I'm sure I'm going to die, and I won't feel the true love in my life.
