Bonnie's Theft

Chapter 15

Damon ignored her and continued to drain the woman in his hands.

She stepped onto the booth almost fumbling. "Damon, please." She pushed his shoulder back causing him to release her neck, but he still held her close in his grasp.

"I need more," he mumbles her blood streaming down his chin.

The whites of his eyes all, but gone for the first time since they had returned she was afraid of her husband. Her heart began to race. "Let her go."

"The pain's almost gone. I need more."

She flashed back to the moment she found him doing blow on the living room floor. A small rope tied around his arm. She rushed into the room thinking that he was dead and accidentally kicked the needle underneath the couch. She shook him awake slapping his face lightly. He moaned in response and looked up at her with glassy eyes. She couldn't help, but think that he was somewhere else. A place where Elena was still alive and he was still a vamp. And she stood in front of him now thinking that he had that same expression on his face. "Don't do this. Don't do this too me again."

He sank his teeth into the female again. She looked around noticing that in all the commotion the real DJ had yet to turn around. He must be compelled not too.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Enzo said standing in front of the only exit in the booth. Cutting off her retreat short of jumping over it.

"Getting him out of here. The others are coming. I've got Damon just take the girl," she said barking orders.

"Are you sure?"

"Just go," said Bonnie knowing that Jeremy would be back any minute now.

"He's pretty volatile you may need me." Enzo said looking at his friend who was only on victim number two. He wouldn't be in his right mind until at least five or six.

"Just tell me the quickest way out of here?" She asked looking in the direction of the kitchen, but finding it hard to see unless the spotlight swept over the door.

"The basement. Damon convinced the kid to lock it. We're the only ones with a key." He said fishing it out of his pocket. "It has a separate entrance that leads out."

Enzo snatched the girl just as Damon released her and she tumbled towards the floor. Bonnie grabbed his hand as they made there way through the crowd and away from the kitchen towards the hallway.

"Bonnie?" Jeremy called out seeing her leaving the DJ booth with a stranger.

She cursed under a breath and didn't look back. She would have asked Damon to use his speed tog et them down to the basement, but she didn't know what kind of condition he was in and didn't want to put the baby at risk.

Jeremy caught the side of the man's chin that was covered in blood. "She's sneaking him out." He pulled out his phone about to call Stefan and thought better of it. He was going to end this on his own.

She could still hear Damon breathing heavily behind her as she made her way down the stairs slower than she would have liked. She locked the door behind them although it was probably only going to give them a few minutes head start. He still hadn't transitioned back and that scared her more than anything else. "Damon can you hear me. I'm going to fix this for you."

"I need more," He pants out through gritted teeth. He misses the bottom step and tumbles onto the floor withering in pain as imaginary lashes hit his back.

"I've got to get Mason over here." Bonnie thought as she bent over Damon. Unable to help the man she loved. She looked up at the door that they had already started to bang on. "Damon, babe we don't have much time you've got to get up."
