The Adventure of a Lifetime| Bonnie and Kol (2023)

Masquerade Part 2

"Where the hell is Bonnie?" Rebekah all but shouts at Klaus.

"I don't know Rebekah" Klaus says exasperated.

Tonight had not gone as planned He had hoped to meet some of Marcels most trusted people but couldn't seem to locate them. Marcel knew he was up to something and had kept his guard up all night.

"Well I'm leaving" Rebekah says grabbing her purse off the bar counter. Tonight hadn't gone to well for her either. She like Klaus, wanted to grab the attention of Marcel but failed.

"No you are not we are staying until this is over." Klaus says firmly grabbing Rebekah's wrist as she tried to leave

"For what Niklaus! He obviously doesn't care about us" Rebekah says lowering her voice at the end referring to Marcel.

Klaus doesn't respond but instead looks away "I'm going to go find Elijah" Rebekah says disappearing into the crowd

***************************************************************************

Bonnie was falling asleep on the way back to the house. Kol had offered to give her a ride home after he found her tired of the whole thing. The ride home was taking much longer than Bonnie expected though. She could have sworn the ride to the party was merely a few minutes.

"We're here!" Kol declares beside her

Bonnie looks out the window and looks to Kol in disbelief

"You are crazy if you think I'm about to go in there" Bonnie says folding her arms

They arrived at what looked like to be the front of a cemetery. A very old and creepy cemetery at that

"What's the matter? Don't tell me your scared" Kol chuckles as he looks at the place

"Why would I ever want to go in there, I asked you to take me home Kol not to some cemetery!" Bonnie says frustrated

"It's not just some "cemetery", It has a history that I think you will find very interesting." Kol says getting out of the car

Bonnie doesn't reply but instead turns her head away like a stubborn child

"Oh come on, I brought booze if that helps" Kol says smiling waving a bottle of liquor

Bonnie scoffs and Kol shrugs his shoulders and turns around and walks to the entrance

"So you're just going to leave me in the car? by myself? in the middle of nowhere!" Bonnie says opening the car door shouting after Kol as he made his way to the cemetery

"Hey, you either come along or get left behind" Kol shouts back

Sighing Bonnie decides to go with him "Hey! wait up!" She says running after him

"This cemetery is used by some of the witches for magic, most of the residents are dead witches." Kol says as he goes inside what looked like an open chamber as Bonnie followed

Bonnie could feel the magic in the room as she entered. It was a weird feeling, one she had only experienced a handful of times. She had never been to an ancient witch burial ground before.

Kol turned to see Bonnie had stopped and had her eyes closed

"You can feel it, can't you?" Kol almost whispers

Bonnie opened her eyes and nodded her head "I've never felt anything like this before."

Bonnie noticed that the room she was in was filled with candles that were already lit.

"The candles were here from past witches, but it looks as if you just lit them." Kol says looking around

Bonnie only smiles and begins whispering. Kol watches as the flames on the candles grow taller. He notices that as Bonnie performed magic she was smiling. Unlike the time she performed magic for Desiree. Kol could only wonder what she was saying because she was speaking in Latin. He could only understand bits and pieces of what she was saying.

Bonnie opens her eyes again and looks at Kol who returns her gaze. She walks towards him as if in a trance and grabs his hands. As soon she did this a shock went through Kol's whole body as he was pulled into a vision. It felt as if it was a memory but it wasn't. He saw him and Bonnie in bed, she was laughing hysterically as Kol was kissing and nipping at her neck.

"I have something to give you." Kol says halting his movements and getting out of the bed dressed in only his boxers he went to his top drawer of his dresser.

He pulled out a velvet box and looked to Bonnie who had wrapped the bed sheets around herself and had sat up on the bed.

"Kol"

Kol walks to Bonnie and sits next to her, he opens the box to reveal a beautiful blue sapphire necklace. It shone as the light through the window made the diamonds dance.

Bonnie gasped and put her hand over her mouth earning a small smile from Kol

"Some say that Sapphire is the gem of new love. Used to represent when new love is found." Kol says looking Bonnie in the eyes

"A sign of commitment... I wanted to give this to you and tell you I've never been happier. Being with you has changed me for the better."

"I love you, Bonnie Bennett" Kol says smiling a rare genuine smile

Bonnie crying chokes back "I love you, Kol Mikaelson" she leans in to kiss him and the vision ends

Kol snatched his hands away from Bonnie.

"What the hell was that!" Kol shouts at Bonnie

Bonnie taken by surprise looks at him in disbelief

"As if I would know!" Bonnie shouts back

The vision took Kol by surprise he wondered what it meant. It had to be his future. No, not his future. Maybe a dream? He found the witch attractive sure but in love? What does love even mean?

"We're leaving" Kol announced walking past Bonnie and out of the stone structure

"But-" Bonnie began

"I said let's go." Kol says dangerously

Bonnie and Kol went to the car leaving the cemetery. Bonnie couldn't help but think back to the vision. She had never seen herself so........happy?

Kol was thinking the same as Bonnie as he drove through the silent streets of New Orleans. Kol couldn't remember a time he was that happy or just soo..... mushy? soft? He had never been the type to give romantic speeches. That couldn't have been his future. Love is just too complicated.

"What were the spirits telling you?" Kol questions breaking the silence

"They kept saying Alive, Alive, Alive over and over again. I asked them what the meant and they never responded." Bonnie says still shaken about what had happened.

When they arrived at the mansion Bonnie got out of the car and slammed the door behind her.

"Wait!" Kol shouts after her

"I'm sorry for being an ass. What I saw..... just surprised me that's all."

Bonnie couldn't stay mad at him. The vision shocked her as well. She looked at Kol who looked right back at her with a small smile on his face. They stood there for a few seconds looking at each other

"Thank you, for taking me to the cemetery. Even though it was....strange." Bonnie says shifting under his gaze

"Well I'm glad you got to experience it." Kol replies looking to the moon "I actually hold witches in high esteem." He says looking to Bonnie "Unlike Niklaus I don't believe they are just objects you can use and throw away when you're tired of them."

Kol looks to Bonnie and slowly walks toward her. Smirking when he heard her heart quicken in pace.

"Kol no-" Bonnie whispers

He slowly leaned in and gave a long lingering kiss on her cheek.

"Goodnight Bonnie." He whispered in her ear. He then turned to enter the house leaving behind a very conflicted Bonnie.
