The Fight (Stefonnie)

Chapter 11

They kissed passionately as the world entered a new year. They decided to have a small, intimate wedding in February then start on their family in April, giving them a month of adjusting before planning for their little one. They didn't expect things to go perfectly and exactly the way that they wanted, but it was always good to plan.

Vince has been silent and wasn't planning to make an appearance anytime soon, he figured the further away he was, the better.

Stefan pulled away from her lips only to kiss her once more. "Happy New Year,"

She smiled. "Happy New Year," she kissed him again.

They sat on the couch sipping on sparkling cider. "'Bonnie Salvatore' doesn't sound so appealing or is that just me?"

Stefan chuckled shaking his head. "What's your middle name?"

"I don't have one,"

"Well let's make one up to make everything flow perfectly." She smiled then sat up some. "Alright, so... Bonnie Sky Salvatore?"

"Okay, I actually really love that." She said surprised. "Bonnie...Bonnie... Ugh, I think 'Sky' wins."

He chuckled. "Then it's settled you're Bonnie Sky Bennett until further notice."

She laughed a little then sat her glass down on the table to rest on him. "I hate how I have to work tomorrow and you have your first day off in a million years."

He chuckled lightly. "I know." He started playing with her hair. "I was thinking that, you know, after the wedding we move all your stuff here and maybe you quit your job?"

"Really?" She she up some.

"I only say that because it would just be easier if you stayed home since we want a big family, and I don't want the stress of work to overflow you. You don't have to, I was just suggesting it."

Bonnie laid back on him again thinking about his suggestion. "I guess I'll think about it,"

"That's all I'm asking right now," he kissed the top of her head. "I love you,"

"I love you more." She looked up smiling as he leaned down meeting their lips. "I'm tired, babe."

"Let's go to sleep."

He got up as Bonnie did then grabbed her hand walking with her upstairs. They checked on Olivia before they got ready for bed.

"Stef, I have like no clean clothes here, can I borrow something?"

"Yeah, sure,"

She kissed his cheek then went back into the closet changing into a pair of basketball shorts (that she didn't know he owned) and a V-neck. She stepped out the closet heading straight for the bed removing some pillows.

"Well don't you look comfy," she turned seeing him with a smile on his face leaning against the bathroom threshold.

"It feels like these shorts will be around my ankles soon." She pulled them up.

"Then take them off, the shirt's long enough."

"Really?"

He nodded then made his way to his side of the bed. She slides off the shorts then climbed into bed and soon, Stefan joins. They face each other then takes hold of the other's hand in prayer. They kiss when the prayer is done and Bonnie turns her back to him. Stefan brings an arm around her, pulling her close to his chest.

After kissing his fiancée goodbye, Stefan went to wake up Olivia. Jacob should be arriving soon and he wanted to make sure that they were ready before he shows up. He hates that the first day that he has off in awhile, he wouldn't be able to spend it with Olivia or Bonnie for that matter, but he figured that he at least try to take advantage of the alone time to get some work done around the house.
