Chapter 1
"...I can't believe that we're out of high school. It seemed like graduation was ages ago." Caroline said as she held her knees to her chest while painting her toes.
The two girls were currently hanging out in Bonnie's room. Caroline was sitting on the floor with her back to the bed, while Bonnie sat against the headboard with her laptop on her lap.
Bonnie looked down at her. "Care, graduation was two weeks ago, but I know what you mean, high school felt like forever. And it was, especially when there was drama going on in that school from left to right. 90210 had nothing on them.
Caroline smiled, " Yeah, but we made it through, even with others doubted us."
Bonnie thought back to the times when her and Caroline had multiple warnings from teachers that they were in jeopardy of failing. It wasn't like they were dumb, it was just the fact that they were too focused on more important things, like partying. When Bonnie first met Caroline back in first grade, she thought that she was too stuck-up, while Caroline thought that she was too nerdy and judgemental. Need I remind you that they were six. After avoiding each other for the first part, they eventually came to not only liking each other and becoming fast friends, but also helping each other break out of their shells. Over the years, Bonnie and Caroline were two peas in a pod. If it wasn't for their different skin color, you would think that they were twins. They always had each other backs and was never afraid of speaking up when necessary. They also had tons of sex appeal, although it took a while for Bonnie to actually believe that she was so hot that hell would freeze up and crack into a thousand ice chips if she was there, (Caroline's words, not hers). But once she found out that she was the eye candy of all the boys in her school and outside of it, she went along with it. Like Caroline told her, YOLO. But that changed after her older brother Danny and his best friend Damon beat up most of the boys that talked to her and Caroline. While they explained that they were only being protective, her and Caroline thought it was annoying and threatened to chop their balls off if they did it again. And even though Bonnie and Caroline had their fun, it all came crashing down when they were told that they would not graduate if they don't pull their grades up. And after being grounded by both of their parents, they took the time to actually study and passed their finals with a high score, which was easy for them because they were already smart, but hated doing work. Although Caroline hated school more than anyone she knew, with Bonnie's encouragement, she did apply to a few colleges, but after they read her essay, they decided that Caroline should stick with community college, which Caroline gladly agreed to, even though her mother, Liz Forbes, thought she could do better than that. Bonnie, on the other hand, got into four good colleges, but decided to hold off for a while and do what she was really passionate about which was going around the world and exploring new things. Even though her parents were against it, especially Danny and Damon who thought it was too dangerous for her to be by herself in a whole full of serial killers, (Damon's words this time,) they eventually accepted it and decided to let Bonnie do her own thing. They also agreed to be supportive as long as it serves educational purposes. Caroline was still hesitant about her best friend leaving her, but Bonnie promised to bring lots of presents, which made Caroline extremely happy. Bonnie's first trip was going to be Europe. She, along with her parents, put up money so she would have a place to stay and extra money for clothes and groceries. She was only going to stay for a year, then she will come back and get focused on school.
Bonnie sighed. She was leaving in three months and she still hasn't packed yet. "Bonnie!" Caroline snapped which made Bonnie jump. "I was having a full conversation with you and you weren't even listening".
Bonnie looked at her with fake hurt. " How dare you say such things, I was listening. "
Caroline crossed her arms. " Oh yeah, what did I say?"
Bonnie thought for a minute, " You said that I'm the most beautiful girl in the world and if you were a lesbian, you would totally do me". Bonnie smiled as she nodded her head, pleased with her answer.
Caroline made a buzzer noise with her mouth. "Cute, but wrong answer. I was actually saying that you will only be here for a short time and we need to make the most of it which means vodka, boys, and hot, hot sex. Caroline grinned.
Bonnie raised an eyebrow. " Is this gonna be all in one night?"
"Well duh, what kind of best friend would I be if I didn't get any hot guys to hook us up with?"
Bonnie frowned "Do kids these days still say hook up?"
Caroline threw a pillow at her " No, but I do so deal with it. "
Bonnie threw the pillow back at her and it turned into a mini pillow fight with the girls laughing and jumping on each other until Bonnie's door burst open, startling them both.
"Well don't stop on my account, this is the part where someone gets naked."
Both girls rolled their eyes dramatically. Of course he has to come in and make every little thing into some sexual. It wouldn't be him if he didn't.
Bonnie straightned herself up "Damon, what did I say about bursting through my door without knocking? We could have been changing".
" Which is why I didn't knock, just in case somebody needed help with something." He smirked
Caroline sat up. " Yeah well, if we did, you would be the last person we'll call."
Bonnie looked up at the ceiling and sighed as Caroline and Damon argued, Caroline doing the most talking as she spit out insults from left to right. It wasn't like Caroline hated Damon, but it was close to say that she really couldn't stand him. Damon and Danny were fouryears older than us and when Caroline first came over my house and met Damon, her being eight and him, tweleve, she thought he was the man of her dreams. (She's so dramatic). Until the day we were playing with our barbie dolls and him and Danny took the heads off and left a note covering in fake blood that said if we didn't give them a hundred dollars each, they would be gone forever. Although Bonnie didn't really care for the doll, Caroline did get really emotional and Bonnie knew that she didn't want to cry in front of Damon so she tried her hardest to get them back for her even though she was not about to give them a hundred dollars. So after pleading with them, Danny gave Caroline one of the heads back while Damon continued to laugh and run with the other one. Caroline, tired of being humiliated ran after Damon as fast as she could with Damon teasing her to keep up, but since Caroline had sandals, she ended up tripping and falling face first into a mud puddle. If they had a contest on who could belt out the loudest horror scream ever, Caroline would take first place. While Bonnie and Danny looked scared, Damon continued to laugh even harder. After finally catching Damon, (with the help of Danny cause he felt bad and even offered to buy her a new one. Sweet boy) Caroline kicked Damon's ass hard and that was the last time Damon was the man of Caroline's dreams.
They were still going at it until Bonnie put her hand on her forehead. "Guys, you are both giving me a headache".
Damon stopped and looked at Caroline accusingly. " Yeah, your annoying voice is hurting Bonnie's head."
Caroline shot daggers at Damon's head as he walked up to Bonnie.
"You OK?, need some aspirin or do you want me to toss your friend out of here?" Caroline growled behind him, but Damon continued to rub her head. His icy blues eyes looking down at her smoky green eyes with concern.
"I'm fine, but I would appreciate if you guys stop arguing every time you see each other". Bonnie looked around him to Caroline who rolled her eyes at the thought of being nice to Damon. Over his dead body.
Bonnie sighed as she removed Damon's hand from her head. " Seriously guys, when I leave, I want to make sure that it's peaceful around the house."
Caroline scoffed. "Don't worry, I won't be around here anyways."
This time it was Damon who scoffed. "Oh please, you know you will be here everyday for Danny". He then made a high girly voice, trying to mock Caroline.
"Oh Bonnie, do you think Danny sees me that way, Oh he is so cute and has he been working out ?" Damon made a kissing noise while Caroline turned bright red. Bonnie knew that Caroline liked her brother. At first, she was grossed out , but Bonnie told her to go for it because deep down she knew that when she would tell Danny that Caroline's coming over, he would take a shower and make sure he look presentable although he always denied it.
"Shut up Damon before I rip your throat out". Caroline gritted out
Bonnie stood in between them because she knew she would do it.
Damon did too, that's why he stood behind Bonnie with both hands wrapped around her waist, just in case Caroline did swing, but she would never hit Bonnie.
"Oh yeah, what are you gonna do?, You can't hit me if Bonnie's in the way, besides it's not my fault your in loveeeee" He dragged out.
"That's it" Caroline yelled "I'm sorry Bonnie, but you're gonna have to get hit".
Damon ducked as he held tightly on Bonnie who was trying to grab Caroline's hands so she wouldn't get hit.
" Guys, stop it. Caroline control yourself "
Before Caroline could grip Damon's jet black hair, a pair of arms went around her and pulled her to the side.
Bonnie sighed in relief, thank god Danny came when he did.
"What's going on here?" He said as he looked down at Caroline who was struggling to break free, still in attack mode.
Damon, who still had his arms around Bonnie, shrugged. "Oh, you know the usual, Caroline trying to attack me."
Danny rolled his eyes. "I know that, but why this time?" He said as he felt Caroline slowly relax in his arms. Bonnie smiled.
Damon smirked, "Oh because I told her that she was in love with yo-
" Yu-gi-oh cards" Bonnie yelled out as she removed Damon's hands off her hips. She shot him a glare as he winked.
Danny looked confused as Caroline nodded rapidly, slowly removing Danny's hands off her. Bonnie saw a little frown on his face, but it went as fast as it came.
"Yeah, I have become fascinated with it". Caroline smiled brightly. Damon laughed and Caroline growled again.
Bonnie did not want this to happen again so she pushed Caroline out the door.
" Okayyyy, we are gonna get ice cream, anybody want anything?" Danny shook his head. "Not really. Caroline are you sure you're OK?" He said as he walked up to her. His light brownish-green eyes looking down at her sparking blue ones. Bonnie felt a sense of déjà-vu.
Caroline smiled softly. "Yes,I'm fine, thank you". Bonnie saw her cheeks blush into a dark rosy red. She shook her head. Just say you're in love already.
Damon made a gagging noise. " Well I want something, Bonnie". He said as he walked up to her, "You know my favorite, right?" He mockingly fluttered his eyelashes at her and Bonnie couldn't help but laugh.
"Oh, you mean double fudge chocolate chip, Honeybunch?" Bonnie joked.
Damon laughed. "Yes, toostie-pop".
Danny rolled his eyes. " Alright, you guys hurry up before it gets dark."
"Yes, father". Bonnie said as she rolled her eyes.
As the girls made their way down the steps and out the door, Danny looked at Damon and shook his head.
" What?" He said in a way that reminded Danny of a time when he set a ant pit on fire and created a huge mess that left both of them itching for days.
"Must you bother Caroline all the time?"
Damon nodded " Of course, its fun".
Danny shook his head, which made Damon roll his eyes. He was such a love sick puppy.
He gave out a long dragging sigh. " Fine, I"ll leave your girlfriend alone."
"She's not my girlfriend, I'm just tired of being a referee around here and I know Bonnie is too. Also, she probably doesn't appreciate you always being rude to her best friend."
Damon sighed again as he crossed his arms. "Fine, I'll back off, but I'm doing this for Bonnie, not for you and especially not for Caroline."
Danny smiled. Damon was really childish sometimes, but that was the main reason why he appreciated him in his life. He made it more interesting."Well, I'm sure Bonnie would be honored."
Damon rolled his eyes. "Whatever, let's go watch the game."
He walked out Bonnie's room with Danny behind him. Their conversation changing to Damon talking about a hot girl he recently had sex with and how flexible she was.
