Here we go, guys! A HUGE THANK YOU to leianaberrie from Tumblr that had edited the story!

To everyone who's asking for more chapters of this fic, I'm sorry but this was a one shot! But don't worry, I'll try to translate all my fics (that are a lot)!

"The three of us, together again. Isn't it awesome?"

Kai's head popped between the front seats of Alaric's car, the enormous smile that characterized him on his face. "You missed this too, didn't you? Sometimes the chaos in that damn house drives me out of my mind," he insisted unfazed by Bonnie and Damon's silence. "All those people talking about relationships and feelings! Sometimes I think I could suffocate Caroline with her own stupid blonde hair – am I right? If I were blocked with her in my prison world for four months I would have got completely mad."

"You are completely mad," Damon reminded him.

"Behave yourself, Damon," Bonnie said, scolding.

The vampire gave her an incredulous look and then looked back to the street. "Seriously? I'm not the psychopath here."

Bonnie raised her eyebrows for a second, showing she doubted that. Damon snorted.

"Remind me why we have to take him with us?"

"Because I can't do a spell like that on my own."

"Couldn't you ask Liv or Jo?"

"No, Damon," she answered impatiently. "He's the most powerful and he knows the spell."

The vampire fell silent.

"You see, Damon," Kai said, turning towards Damon's ear, "it seems like you are the third wheel. If you want you can go back home. Bonnie and I will be just fine. Actually, it wouldn't be our first trip alone," he concluded, winking at her.

Bonnie shook her head. She wasn't a companion on a road trip with a vampire and a powerful witch – she was a babysitter. "You see, Kai," answered Damon mocking him, "I'm here to make sure you keep your hands at their place. And if they are near Bonnie any more than necessary I'm gonna cut them off."

Kai laughed loud.

"Oh, Damon. You're always so protective towards your best friend. I wonder if Miss Mystic Falls is a bit jealous. In fact she didn't seem too happy about our solitary mission."

Neither Bonnie or Damon answered at that sideswipe. They were used to Kai's insinuations. In his sociopath's head, they had had a love affair at Elena's back.

"If you want, you can put your hand on Bonnie's leg. I promise Elena won't know from me," Kai swore, laying a hand on his heart.

"What sound would you think your head will make if I smashed it right now?" Damon asked rhetorically.

"Uhm, not a nice one," Kai answered. "Something like 'splaf'. At least, that is the sound it makes against cement."

Damon silenced and Bonnie's eyebrows furrowed. "You seem really sure," she said.

Kai laughed again. He was revved up. "I found it out the day I tried to kill myself by throwing myself from the roof of my house," he explained, still laughing.

Bonnie looked at him compassionately.

"When I woke up I couldn't think about anything else. I kept hearing that awful sound – splaf, splaf, splaf – and for a long time, I thought my skull didn't heal completely. I had the sensation that my brain hitting against my scalp every time I moved my –"

"That's enough!" Damon interrupted him, looking at him in the driving mirror. "You're spoiling my fun."

Bonnie looked out of her window. Finally there was silent. The shrubbery at the edges of the street flowed rapid in front of her eyes and it allowed her to lose track of time and space. She closed her eyes.

When she opened them, Kai's face was really close to hers, almost as if he was trying to read her thoughts. When he was so quiet she could have looked at him with tenderness, in those times, she saw the little boy whose family never loved him before he became that frightening of him. The boy that was called an abomination by the same people that gave him life was the only one who really understood how she felt, all her fears in living her old life. He was the only one that had lived them with her.

She smiled to him, knowing he would have followed her thoughts. Kai's thick eyebrows lowered in a quiet expression.

"After your friends are done using us, we could go on a vacation. What do you think?" He asked, winking.

Then he got like this and she'd gladly hit him.

Bonnie shook her head. "I don't know about you, but I can't afford a vacation."

"Yeah" Kai agreed. "We're not vampires, we can't compel innocent people." He considered their possibilities then piped up with renewed enthusiasm. "But we can threaten them of death!"

"Don't be creepy, Kai."

"Wait, wait" Damon interrupted them. "You would go with him after all he put you through?" he asked, with disbelief and horror.

"We had nice moments too!" Kai objected.

"You put me through a lot too, Damon. And here I am, Bonnie Bennett, surrounded by people who tried to kill me more then once," she commented harshly. "Story of my life."

"Hey! I tried to kill you once," Damon objected. "And – technically – that was Emily."

"Fascinating!" Kai interfered. "Is this how you met?"

"No" Bonnie answered. "The first time he saw me he just threatened me."

"Ah, ah, ah! You really can't tell tales, Bon Bon. That time I told you I wanted to protect you."

"What a romantic!" Kai sighed.

"You haven't done a good job of that, have you?" Bonnie said to Damon.

"We weren't friends yet!"

"So, you had a hate-love relationship?"

"Shut up, Kai!" they both shouted.

"Sometimes you two sound like my parents," he continued undaunted. "The only difference is that Bonnie is hot when she gets mad."

The trip lasted an eternity.

Even thought the weather was much better those days, the cave was icy. Bonnie wrapped her arms around her body, shivering.

"Do you want my jacket?" With his hands on his hips, Kai had approached her noiselessly. Damon was right behind him.

"You always wear just a t-shirt, you'd freeze. And if you freeze we can't do the spell."

Damon put his jacket on her shoulders.

"Thank you" she whispered. Then, noticing Kai's annoyed expression, she added: "He doesn't feel the cold."

Kai looked irritated at the vampire. Damon smiled back, quizzically.

Bonnie wondered when they would stop acting like they were her suitors, because she was pretty sure that none of them actually thought of her like that.

She walked away to touch the bare rock around them and felt the magic flowing in it.

"We should prepare the candles."

Damon brought the bag with everything they needed for the spell and helped Bonnie and Kai set things up. They placed the candles in a semicircle against the wall of rock.

Bonnie stepped into the semicircle and invited Kai to follow her.

Damon watched them as they lit the candles with a spell. Their shadows projected against the wall behind them and they turned to face each other.

"The spell requires an intimate touch to channel the energy," Kai murmured.

"I can hear you, pervert," Damon said sourly.

Kai smiled. "I know."

"Just take my hands" Bonnie said. She rested her palms on Kai's and felt her magic looking for his.

Kai closed his eyes and sighed. "This feels so right," he whispered.

Bonnie shook her shoulders to shake off the shiver of pleasure she felt. "Let's get started," she whispered closing her eyes.

"Phesmathos aberto" they both said. "Phesmathos escotilla…"

Damon tried to follow the ritual but the apparently disconnected words they whispered confused him. He focused his attention on their shadows, dancing together against the rock while the fire raised from the candles.

They recited the spell for some minutes but nothing happened. The wall behind which were the relic they had to get was as still as before.

"I told you" Kai said. "We need an intimate touch."

Bonnie snort and Damon smiled that she was pissed by the proposal. Soon after, however, she put Kai's hands on her hips and her hands at his neck. They took a step to get closer so the tips of their shoes touched.

"What's going on?" Damon asked. That situation embarrassed him. If Kai would have tried to touch Bonnie more than necessary he couldn't pass the fire circle to knock him out.

"It's all right" Bonnie reassured him. "We try again."

Damon folded his arms across his chest, waiting.

Bonnie and Kai's eyes closed again and their mouth started moving again as they repeated the spell.

The air was charged with magic but, again, the cave didn't change.

"You're not even trying, Kai." Bonnie's whisper interrupted their spell.

"I can't when you're so close" he answered, his voice sounded tortured.

Before Damon could register what was happening, Kai's lips were against Bonnie's.

"Hey!" Damon shouted, but Kai pulled Bonnie closer.

Damon took a step forward, but the fire was so high he couldn't pass it.

"Take your hands off of her!" he shouted against the wall of fire. "When you come out of there…" the threat died on his lips because the rock wall – behind Bonnie and Kai's bodies, wrapped so tightly together that they were one shadow, not two –was changing. He could hear loud cracks in the rock and next he could see the wall behind the witches opening like the automatic door of a supermarket, inviting them in with an icy breeze.

Bonnie pulled away from Kai with the indulgent smile Damon thought she reserved just for him.

"You ready?" Damon asked, shoving between them to definitely split them.

When they'd found the relic needed to save Elena and Mystic Falls ('you don't say!' as Kai couldn't resist to point out) they were on that way back. Bonnie was afraid that the return trip was going to be worse than the first.

Kai, seated in the back seats, was radiant. "Now you see why she didn't ask any of my sisters?" he asked to Damon. "Though I'm sure you would've enjoyed the show."

Damon rolled his eyes. "Don't be full of yourself, Casanova. If it weren't for the spell she would've never let you kiss her. Not even in her worse nightmares."

"You know I'm right here, right?" Bonnie asked rhetorically.

"Oh, sure," Kai told Damon, completely ignoring her. "As if her biggest dream is to kiss you. It's not very nice being bitten while you're kissing someone."

Damon smiled his latin lover smile. "It is, if you're kissing a centenary vampire with amazing seductive skills."

"If you're the Rocco Siffredi of vampires, why Bonnie didn't fall for you in four months you were literally the only man on Earth?"

"I wasn't trying to seduce her!"

"Yeah, sure, you were too busy thinking of your girlfriend that had literally deleted you from her mind."

"Stop it, now," Bonnie interrupted them. "You're acting like children. I'm not interested in any of you and none of you is interested to me. So stop it!"

"I am interested to you," Kai said, touching her shoulder.

"Weren't you a sociopath?"

"Yeah, I was. But even if I don't have emotions, I had a dick!"

"Kai!" they admonished him.

"You're a jerk" Bonnie added. She wasn't sure if she should have been disgusted or flattered.

Kai fell back on his seat. "You act like you and your friends are sophisticated but in your group everybody has been with everybody – except you two, 'cause obviously Damon is blind."

No one answered, so he kept going. "And probably deaf, going by Elena's insufferable voice."

Despite herself, Bonnie smiled. It wasn't everyday that a boy didn't fall for Elena.

"Stop talking about my girlfriend or I'll rip out your dick," Damon said threateningly.

Bonnie had no idea how she was going to survive four more hours of this.
