Stefan Salvatore's daughter ~ Miracle

99. Tell 'em I'm coming back

Gillian's P.O.V.

I am sitting on Care's bed in the dorm room at college, waiting for Bonnie to come out of the shower. I'm surprised she's not in class. I guess and Punk Boy is the reason... I look around the room, seeing that nothing changed here. Beds are at the same place, kitchen part is the same, mini fridge still there... Everything. I miss being here, being with my friends, having my fiancé coming to see me... I just want to feel Kol's arms again, to be with him, feel his love, his passion, his protectiveness... Just feel him. He's my man. I feel it every time I'm with him. He's the one making me feel alive and I need to feel like that. I want and need to feel it because I miss it like crazy. I miss a part of myself that got mixed with his... Our love and heart. I get out of my thoughts when I hear Bonnie stepping out of the bathroom, a towel around her and giggling. She was looking behind her until she looks before her, seeing me. Instantly, she gasps, startled.

- You scared me, Gi, she tells me, looking relieved it is just me and certainly not one of those ghosts causing her pain when they pass through her. I smile at my friend and wave innocently with both my hands.

- Sorry. I didn't think you would be in the shower at this time... I apologize to her before I see Jeremy stepping out of the bathroom, drying his hair with a towel, and being completely naked! Oh... I look away, amused. I know my eyes aren't virgin but, hum... I tell to Bonnie as I discretely smirk. So glad I am invisible and Kol isn't here...

- Oh, huh, Jer? Calls, Bonnie to Jeremy. Gillian's here, she informs him, pointing lightly at the bed I am sitting on.

- Oh! He exclaims with an awkward tone as he drops his towel in front of his boy part. I choke a laugh, even though he cannot see me. Hi, Gi... He tells me awkwardly, slowly going back to the bathroom with his clothes.

- Hi, Jer, I answer, waving at him. Bonnie tells him for me before he disappears next room. Someone had some actions... Dirty girl, I tell her playfully, smirking.

- Shut up, she tells me playfully while laughing. I watch her grabbing a pillow and throwing it at me. I laugh along with her, moving on the side. It wouldn't have hit me, anyway, but... I guess it's call reflex. The pillow falls on the floor as we continue softly laughing. So, how are you feeling? Have you finally find a way to come back home? She gently demands me with hope in her voice. Bonnie walks over to her bed where her clothes are. I turn around, giving her some privacy to put her clothes on.

- I... Yes, I think so. But I might need your help with this, I tell her seriously and with a slight sorry tone that I have to turn to her for help. She already did so much... It even cost her life once. At least, it won't be much what I'm asking... I mean, she won't be in danger. Not a physical or acting help... You know. I need your knowledge, I say with a slight bothered tone to have to ask her this.

- You can turn around, she tells me, sounding lightly confused. I turn around seeing her picking up her brush. My knowledge? On what? She demands me softly, looking ready to do anything to help me. It feels so warm to see her so motivated to help me, but I feel so, so bad for this...

- Bonnie, I'm... Don't take me for someone crazy or... Don't hate me for this, I begin to say, struggling to find my words. Bonnie looks at me with a confused frown. I didn't choose an-and I didn't plan to become one. I actually thought it was impossible... I say rapidly to my friend, feeling more than bad right now.

- What are you talking about, Gi? She asks me with a concerned tone. Jeremy comes back in the room, dressed up this time.

- I'm a vampire... I begin to tell her before pausing longer than I thought I would. I just don't know how to say it...
