I Need My Girl (Stefonnie)

Chapter 6

Lynn frowned watching her cousin sit in one of the chairs at the table. When Bonnie arrived home, it was late and she was downstairs getting a midnight snack when she bumped into her cousin. At first, Lynn smiled happy to see that they made it back safely, but that smiled faded when she noticed that something was wrong. She questioned her but never got an answer. She noticed that Stefan wasn't there so she figured that maybe they had broken up, so she helped her upstairs and laid in the bed with her hoping that she could provide some comfort.

The next morning, she woke up and noticed that Bonnie was already awake and wonders if she even went to sleep last night. She tried talking to her, but again, nothing.

They headed downstairs so Lynn could fix some breakfast, still talking to her and as she finished with the last pancake, she walked over to the table frowning at her cousin's face for a tear had slide down it.

"Bonnie, talk to me, I'm here for you." She rubbed her back some. "Is it about Stefan?" She wanted to avoid saying his name, but hoped that it would get her talking.

Bonnie looked over at her cousin whose eyes held concern. She wanted to tell her, but her brain wouldn't let her. She's still in shock over everything that happened and everything within her felt black.

He's gone, Stefan is gone and it's all because of Damon. She wondered how he found out where they were, how he knew where they would be. She starts to blame herself, she thought that she heard someone call out her name when she went to get the mail yesterday, but didn't tell Stefan about it. Maybe if she told him, he would've been more prepared, but now he's gone and she has no idea where he is, she just hopes that he's still around.

Lynn found her bending over a toilet and quickly rushed to her side rubbing her back as she continued. She felt horrible, she needed to know what was going on so that she could help, but Bonnie wouldn't tell her a word.

They stood together and her shaking hands reached to turn on the water cupping the liquid in her hands, bringing it up to her mouth, spitting it out.

"Bonnie-"

"He's gone. Damon took him from me."

"Who?"

"Stefan. His brother, he found us and knocked him out and took him away. I couldn't do anything to stop it."

Lynn's eyes widened. "W-why would he do that?"

"Because we left him. Damon isn't a good guy, but one day he shows up and asks to be in Stefan's life again. We were already packed to move here and I asked him if he still wanted to move and he said yes, so we did. Damon must've figured out where we were and took him for revenge."

Lynn shook her head no believing that a person could do such a thing. "I'm so sorry, Bonnie. Do you think he'll hurt him?" She regretted asking, but the question left her mouth before she could stop it.

She thought. "No. Hurting him would be too easy,"

Again, Lynn was shocked hearing such a thing and started to wonder if this Damon was some type of psychopath.

She helped get Bonnie cleaned up more before making her eat something. It's been too long since her body has been without food and she knew that her cousin was in shock, but she still needed to eat.

Bonnie thanked her for the pizza and ate two slices. She tried to conceal the feeling, but something is different within her. She knows it's because that Stefan is gone and it's like a piece of her is missing. She's not the same and knew that she wouldn't return unless she gets her Stefan back.
