"It will come back , Damon." , he tried to console me. My all time optimistic and good brother, Vampire of the century , Stefan Salvotare. No pun intended.

"No Stefan! you don't know how fucked up is that that I don't remember what in the fuck happened in that witchy woo prison hell." I tried to mustered up as sarcastically as possible. I was feeling rage and guilt none towards at but me.

Well generally I need no introduction but if you don't know me watch "The Vampire Diaries" or I am Damon Salvotare(A Vamp) who was stuck in some kind of prison hell living same day for 5 months with my girlfriend's (Elena Gilbert also a sexy Vamp) best friend Bonnie Bennett (witchy witch aka bon-bon). We died and went to the other side and then as per some supernatural force some how survived and stuck in the hell hole. There we met a total psychopath Kai(A bastard of some gemini coven) for whom that prison world was created.

Now we are back but I don't remember much of what happened and how Bonnie died at the time of our return. I am not coping well with the death of my only one companion who went through the true hell of living one day again and again separated from loved ones of loneliness. My memories were foggy and guilt was eating me alive that I couldn't save Bonnie. The look of shock, happieness and hurt in the eyes of Elena was killing me. I tried to remember what happened but all things were blurry and my brain was fried with too much spell.

"All is ready.", Elena's hoarse voice due to crying snapped me out of my thought. I am mostly too aware of my surrounding but I didn't noticed when she came and also that Stefan had already left. I turned and saw her standing at the doors wearing black knee length dress with her black high heels, unshed tears in her brown eyes with heavy heart full of hurt and loss. I don't know what to say so I just nodded and she left without another backward glance. She was not saying but I know she is disappointed at me well what can I say 'Me too Elena, me too'.

I entered the hall where almost whole town was present for the mourning of a great college girl who was good friend of all. Yes we are attending the funeral of Bonnie which I never thought I will attend with our past difference but things had changed.

There in the middle of hall was a casket with the body of Bonnie with a slight pale skin which was generallly super tan due to her heritage wearing a black dress with a peaceful look in her face. Looking at her lifeless face I felt a pull at my hardcore heart. I never cared about anyone life's. I always took death for granted. I had took countless lifes for the fun or in need but never felt an ounce of guilt or remorse but looking at her it came all crashing back and ripping my heart out. I justed wanted to switch place with her. I don't deserve any redemption I know but the selfish bastard I am standing here.

"I bought your Miss. CUDDLES Bon-bon.", I said lowly "Sleep tight Bonnie."Miss. CUDDLES was Bonnie's favourite soft toy which she had from her childhood which was lost in this world and we found that in the prison hell. It was a dirty brown teddy bear which was in my hands when we came back through the eclipse portal. I kept it with somehow and thought to give it to her as a partaway gift. I kept it beside her and closed the casket too upset to look at her. I knew when the eulogy will start it will be opened but I can't look atleast for now.

"You look mess, need bourbon", asked Alaric, my best friend. "Later", I replied looking at him and Jeremy glared at me from beside him with hate and loathing which I welcomed. "Sorry Jer", I said him surprising him along with others and myself but he covered it with hate again. I searched for Elena to distract myself and found her at front seat avoiding me but I knew she listened me. It ripped my heart out and make me most miserable when the one person I love the most in this whole world is disappointed in me and hurting due to me. But it hurts more the guilt that is eating me inside out that Bonnie is gone due to me.

Elena went to open the casket to give Bonnie her partaway gift and as she opened it a shocked gasp escaped her lips and suddenly I was beside her in the blink of an eye and what I saw bought thousands of questions and a tiniest bit one thing that I had lost since I escaped my prison hell and that is HOPE.

The casket was empty. Bonnie's body along with miss. CUDDLES was not there. I only means she is either lost forever from us or she is about to come back to us. And with all that is present in the extraordinary world of supernatural world around us I hoped it was latter.

"Where is Bonnie?", Elena asked still shocked to her core but with some hope in her eyes too.

" I will find her I promise", I reliped more to myself then her. And suddenly I disappeared with my vampy speed in search of my lost memories and Bonnie. I started my SEARCH but I knew, 'it would never be enough. Secerts never stay buried for long' and I started digging my lost memories. I concentrated hard as if my life depended on it and my brain protested me to stop digging the pain was that much unbearable but I didn't stopped and finally I got access to it.

I ran towards the cemetery with my full lighting speed where we started our journey of the hell hole like a possessed man I am right now. And there I saw it. One thing which I pretented to be annoyed of but right now is the most important and bought me peace and utter happiness. Miss. CUDDLES.....

I picked that teddy up and hugged it." You are alive.", I thanked god and shouted "Bonnie. Bon-bon. Bonnie..." but got no reply. I knew she is here somewhere I can feel it. I searched for few time but couldn't find her. So I thought to head home and give all the good news that Bonnie she alive

I reached home and what I saw bought smile to my lips. There was Bonnie sitting on the kitchen table eating pancakes and there was a plate one for me too just like the time we used to have in prison hell but the difference was that usually I would make the pancakes and she eats.

"So finally you decided to cook Bon-bon", I smirked with the tears in my eyes and Bonnie ran and jumped in my arms.

" What are you doing with my project Natethaniel? ", Anna taunted me with mock anger. I froze in my place and I bet my heart stopped beating for a second and then I composed myself and turned and reliped with full confidence .

"Nothing dear, I was checking wether you did ur project properly or not." she scoffed and smirked "Oh really!! I bet you were just curious whom I choosed for my project." Ohh I am caught I thought sheepishly but I tried my best to keep my face nuetral.

" Were you jealous Nate?" , Anna asked teasingly."No!!", I reliped too fast and cussed myself for being caught and she just laughed. "Lets go to sleep its late.", I said to change the subject and turned towards bedroom. Anna caught with me and when we reached the door she asked me too casually for her liking "Nate, whom you choosed for your project?"

Now it was my time to smirk and I reliped "Kate Beckett and Richard Castle"
