So I've been having all these Bonbekah feels lately so I decided to start a little something that I'm hoping will turn out to be a big something. This will be a romantic relationship for these so if you don't like that(seriously dude?) then gtfo and don't read. If you do like it, well I hope you enjoy! I've mentioned before that I'm not the best writer, but I plan on really really trying because these two girls deserve the best. (=
How could he have done that to her? Treat her like some piece of garbage off the street. Never in their thousand years of living had her brother said such horrid and degrading words to his young sister. She had stuck by his side, loved him unconditionally, and he repays her with what? Indifference, hate, and rejection. She wishes she could have realized earlier that she means nothing to him. He had talked and spewed the crap about loving his family and wanting to be reunited just to turn around, threaten them and dagger them. He's selfish and always has been; never have his actions been for his family and now she's upset with herself for not noticing sooner. She feels it's her own fault; the biggest fear she has that kept her blindly devoted to the hybrid. Her fear of being alone; not belonging and not finding someone to love her without fault. The original indeed had her fair share of men and women bowing at her feet, but never one to truly care for her. She, herself, had never been able to give such devotion to anyone but her siblings. Not even Stefan had been the right one; she always knew he'd never completely get over Katerina or the current doppelganger. So she'd given up there; actually she'd given up everywhere. Her chances with Matt were destroyed the night Kol broke his hand, and even more destroyed the night she caused his and the doppelgangers wreck. Though it hurt her to hear his words of rejection, she was so used to it that she allowed herself to quickly get passed it. But tonight had been the breaking point. Nik's mocking words and insults had pushed her over the edge. She didn't allow the tears in her eyes to fall; that's what he wanted. He was waiting for her to break down; it had always been his joy to see her so weak and fragile. This time, though, she didn't allow the water works until she left the mansion and ended up where she was now. It was a spot just right above the falls; a spot she would frequently venture to in her human years for solitude. This wasn't the first time she'd been there but it never failed to take her breath away every time. She lie on the forest floor, listened in to the rushing water and stared up at the stars.
Bonnie Bennett was on her nightly walk to the witches house when she decided to take a different route. She knew these woods like the back of her hand and could walk through any part and never get herself lost. Even if she did ever get lost she knew she could easily use her power to figure it out. She could pretty much use it for anything now; just a couple days ago she found herself telepathically making popcorn in the microwave. She enjoyed little things like that to take her mind off the bigger issues at hand; the bigger spells she needed to do. Lately it seemed as if the scooby gang needed her magic more than they usually did. Stefan or Damon had called her up in the middle of night three times already; two of those not even being for magic but to discuss current problems. Because of the nightly wake up calls Bonnie was constantly under stress and sleepiness, falling behind in class and almost falling asleep behind the wheel. She hated the feeling, but knew it was for a good purpose; she'd do pretty much anything to keep her loved ones safe. If that meant late night meetings with at the boarding house or some extra spells then so be it. It's what to be done. But right now what had to be done was a nice walk through the fresh air to the witches house. She goes there every night for meditation and relaxation; the night air helps to clear her head as well. Now with this short cut towards the falls, the misty air will come in handy as well. She stands on the cliff just overlooking the water, closes her eyes, and inhales the earthy scent. It immediately calms her and she feels a content smile pull at her lips. 'So nice. You've needed this, Bonnie.' She's enjoying the peacefulness when she hears a small sob coming from her left. Bonnie puts up her guard as she makes her way towards the sound. She's shocked when she stops only to see the blonde original herself lying on the ground, eyes closed, with the moon light glowing off the tear tracks. She found it tragically beautiful. The young witch isn't sure what to do; she could turn and run, but the vamp could easily catch up to her. Or she could stay and somehow try to understand what was happening. Bonnie had always been sort of sympathetic towards Rebekah; she saw what others didn't. The original was constantly being pushed around by her brother, constantly dealing with rejection, and heartbreak. The witch sympathized so much because she herself found herself going through the same things. That's why she chose the latter and decided to confront the blonde.
"Rebekah? Are you okay?"
The vampire shot up, quickly wiped the tears and attempted some kind of emotional strength. "Of course I am, witch. Ever seen a girl cry before? Wait of course you have; that's all you teenagers know how to do."
"You know, Rebekah, the fact that you're being so defensive right now only let's me know even more that you're not okay."
"Well well aren't you an observant one. Guess you're smarter than I thought. What are you doing here anyway; come to threaten me like you do my brother? Setting a trap and just waiting for me to fall in it?" She sounded so defeated. What happened to this girl?
"Actually, no I was on my way to the witches house. I go there every night, but I decided to take a different round this time and came up on you. No traps, no threats."
"Hm. Well I leave you to do your witchy mumbo jumbo." She turns and starts leaving at a human speed when the witches words stop her in her tracks.
"You can talk to me if you want. I know we're supposed to hate each other, but I can see you're hurting for some reason that I'm guessing has to do with your brother." She saw the originals eyes go wide as if surprised that she knew what the problem was. "So if you ever need someone to confide in, well I can be that person." Bonnie was sure the girl would say no, but she knew it wouldn't hurt to try. Rebekah was clearly in a state of distress; she was alone and the Bennett knew how that felt. Oh boy she knew that feeling all too well. So even though they were both caught up in the 'original/scooby gang' fighting, she'd try her best to look at Rebekah as if she were human. She'd always had a big heart and couldn't help but feel sorry for the blonde.
The vampire looked as if she were actually contemplating whether to stay or not, but in the end opted for her usual attitude. She scoffed, "I don't want your pity, witch." With that, she vamp sped out of the woods leaving Bonnie to be disappointed that the vampire wouldn't let her help. She shrugged it off and set off to her original destination.
That night all Rebekah could think about was how kind the witch had been to her. After everything that had happened to her and her friends she had no reason to be so sympathetic. Her brothers and herself had done nothing, but torture the Bennett's group of idiot friends. Even though she didn't regret any of it, she could understand that the witch should hate her for it all. Yet, she had extended her kindness and offered a friendly ear to listen and that had actually meant something to Rebekah. No one had ever genuinely been so concerned about her and willing to comfort her and listen. So when she spotted Bonnie at her locker the next day, she planned on taking the sweet girl up on her offer. Before she willed herself to move from her locker, she noticed how cute the witch looked today. In her black skinny jeans, white blouse covered with a purple unbuttoned vest, the vampire had to admit there was not one outfit that Bonnie could mess up. The girl knew how to dress and Rebekah often found herself checking the teenager out admiring her fashion sense and excellent color coordination. Not only was the girl great with clothes, but she was not lacking in the looks department either. The first thing Bekah had noticed about her was her eyes; they were the most beautiful color of green she had ever seen. Like emerald jewels. And those gorgeous cupid's bow lips that covered her perfectly straight teeth. She also never even needed make up for her natural skin was already flawless. If Bekah were honest, Bonnie Bennett was the most beautiful female she'd ever laid eyes on.
She shook her head of the thoughts and strut her way to the girl. "Hello Bonnie. Cute outfit." She notices the surprised expression on the witches face and it makes her chuckle. 'Quite adorable.'
"Umm hi, Rebekah, thanks." When the vampire doesn't raises her eyes expectantly. "Is- Is there something you need?"
"Actually yes, there is. I'd like to apologize for my rudeness last night; as you saw, I wasn't in the right state of mind."
"Oh. Don't worry about it; I get it. You were upset, there's nothing to apologize for. Are you better today?" Bonnie has high hopes that she's doing better; seeing her so broken was quite upsetting.
"No I do have to apologize; you were only trying to help and I appreciate it. In fact, I was wondering if I could take you up on your offer to...talk?" Bekah's not used to letting her guard down so much, but she feels comfortable letting it happen with the witch. There's something about this girl that makes the vampire feel at ease; like she can say anything and everything. The feeling is so new to her that she's not sure what to make of it. Could she be truly making a friend for once in her existence? No matter what is happening, the blonde is certain she won't let it go.
Bonnie is so stunned by what she just said that it takes a few seconds and locker slamming to bring her out of the shock. "Oh yeah yeah, of course! How about after school at the Grill?"
Rebekah's face can only be described as elated when Bonnie agrees to talk. "Actually, can we take a walk to the falls? It helps with everything..."
"Okay, yeah that's fine. We can go after school if you'd like? I'll drive."
Rebekah had never such a genuine, honest and kind smile in all her years. Oh yes, there was something about this witch. Something not to be ignored, but to be admired and cherished. How someone could have a big heart filled with so much good and so much purity was beyond Rebekah. Even after the pain she had caused her friends, Bonnie was still willing to let that good extend to the original. She returned a smile to the girl and nodded. "Alright, sounds great! See you later, Bonnie."
Bonnie waved, keeping the grin on her face and walked down the hall as Bekah stared after her. This girl is something special, the blonde knew that for sure. 'Bonnie Bennett, I think you and I are going quite close.' Feeling excited and anxious, she made her way to class hoping the day would go by fast.
Tell me what you think! Nothing too harsh, please! I get that Bonnie seems a little ooc and a little too comfortable with Rebekah, but I'm writing this in the way that I'd want to see it happen. So I hope that's alright! (=

*Also, I know this chapter is short, but I promise I'm gonna start making them longer. This was just my way of getting a feel of what it'll be like to write for them both.*
