Who: Bonnie Bennett, Caroline Forbes, & Damon Salvatore
When: June 2nd, 2010
Where: Lawrence, Kansas: Starbucks
What: Caroline and Bonnie meet up so that Caroline can explain what's going on to Bonnie, when Damon decides to crash the party.
Ratings: TBD!

Bonnie wasn't sure what was going on, but one minute she had been driving down the streets of Mystic Falls, Virginia and the next she was in Lawrence, Kansas. The second she had stopped recognizing the streets, she had pulled over and asked the nearest person where she was.

When she got her answer, she tried calling her friends and family and had failed to reach them. So instead of giving up that easily, she had sat down at an internet cafe, logged on, and found a forum that looked like it could help her after typing in 'Ending up in Lawrence, Kansas and having no idea how.'

After bypassing various Wizard of Oz related sites, what she found...was unexpected. All she knew was that Caroline was going to be here any second and that she had the answers that Bonnie was looking for. Because she wanted to know something about what was going on before she tried to drive back home to Mystic Falls.

Caroline's eyes widened. Damon had tried to kill Jeremy? She stared at the older vampire for a moment, before turning her attention back to Bonnie.

"Bonnie, please," Caroline asked, softly. "You should rest a little. We need to plan this out. Stock up on supplies, maybe," she paused. "Weapons? Just in case."

As much as she desperately wanted to go home, a part of her was saying that driving to Mystic Falls would do nothing. Their friends and family wouldn't be there - nothing they know would be there. And then they'd just be stuck. It was scary, and she hated herself for thinking that way, but she couldn't help it. After all if going home was possible - why were there so many people still here? Including fictional people.

Still, it didn't hurt to at least try right? There was no harm in that.

“Please,” Damon scoffed. “Jeremy can be annoyingly emo, but I’d never kill him for it.”

But Bonnie would know better than him. She was further along in the timeline than he was. This bothered him a little. He silently scolded his future self, if in fact he had done such a thing. This wasn’t because he cared a whole lot about Jeremy Gilbert, but because he knew that by harming Jeremy he would ruin any chance he had at being Elena’s love.

“I’m sure we can gather some weapons. People in the complex, as I recall, are very concerned with their own safety. One of you will have to ask, though.” Damon knew that anyone who knew who he was would give pause to loaning him any sort of weapon.

"How are you even going to try to lie about that? You know that Elena won't even say your name right now or acknowledge your existence right now? You were lucky Jeremy had that ring on or else he would have been dead," Bonnie said, looking in disbelief at Damon. She didn't understand that they hadn't all experienced the same things yet, so she could only assume that he was lying for Caroline's benefit.

Looking at the blonde, Bonnie sighed and nodded. "Fine. I'll rest and then we'll get some weapons together. Where are you staying? A motel? Because I'm not staying at that complex if you're not staying there." She offered Caroline a tentative smile.

Because even if her best friend was a vampire, she was so Caroline, it was sometimes easy to forget what she was now.

Damon rolled his eyes at Bonnie.

“We’re each from different times. You must be from a time where Jeremy did something unforgivable to me. I clearly had my reasons.” He mumbled his defense, really wondering for a second what had possessed him to do something so incredibly stupid and impulsive.

“Whatever happened,” He spoke up in a normal tone of voice. “I’m not that Damon so you,” Damon jabbed a finger in the air, pointing it at Bonnie. “Don’t blame me.”

“I supposed it would be ridiculous of me to mention that my apartment has a guest bedroom.” He cocked his head to the side and smiled at Bonnie. There was no way in hell she would stay with him and he knew it. It was fun, though, to watch her react to the things he did.

Bonnie considered Damon for a moment, before shrugging. "Whatever." She already considered him a liar and a murderer for many more reasons than Jeremy's almost death. She wasn't up to arguing about his current level of evil, even if what he was saying was true.

"You're supposing right, Salvatore. I rather sleep in my car," she said with another roll of her eyes. "I'll figure it out. I can be ready to leave in a day or two. I'll look through the grimoire in the meantime. Think you two can get ready by then?"

The only reason she wasn't counting on an easy fix with a spell was because she doubted it would be anything but extremely complex and energy draining. And she had seen what powerful spells like that did to people with her own eyes. Her grandmother had died and she wasn't looking to follow quite yet.

Caroline glanced back and forth between Bonnie and Damon, feeling increasingly uncomfortable. She felt a tight knot forming in her stomach, and she wasn't exactly sure why.

"I'm staying with someone," Caroline replied. "I can ask if you can stay too," she left out the name for now, more for Bonnie to feel comfortable. Damon had crashed one party, it might be best for both his sake and Bonnie's, if Caroline filled her friend in later. Then again, would Bonnie even believe her when she said who she was staying with? "It's safe, he's safe, I promise. He's kind of been looking out for me."

She almost wanted to kick Damon under the table, to try and get him to be nice. But what would the point be?

"A day or two sounds good," she nodded. "I also don't think it's a good idea of getting weapons from the complex, the last thing we need if this doesn't work is them thinking we're trying to start a war or something."

Bonnie was oblivious to what Caroline was feeling right then, having fallen out of tune with her friend's emotions long before she became a vampire. That was Bonnie's fault, even if she didn't realize how much it hurt Caroline.

For a moment, she considered taking Caroline up on her offer before she decided that it would be better for everyone if she was alone when she went through Emily's grimoire. "No, that's fine. I'll check into a motel." She had enough cash for a day or two and that's all she really needed until they left for Mystic Falls.

If Mystic Falls was there.

"We'll need weapons though. What if we explain what we're doing?" Bonnie asked, lifting her straw to her lips and getting nothing but melted ice. She looked mournfully at her empty coffee cup and sighed.
