Moonlight Dwelling

"Be sensible, Bonnie. You don't get to be a vampire by yourself. Somebody has to make you one."

Bonnie started looking around in her purse for a pen and something to write on.

"What are you doing Bonnie?"

"I want to take notes Elena."

"Why?"

Bonnie looked at Elena.

"I might want to become a vampire one day. Would you mind answering some questions?"

Elena sat down on the floor and leaned against Bonnie's bed with her legs straight out before her.

"I'm not a vampire expert. You should ask Stefan."

Bonnie found a notepad which she flipped open and started writing in.

"You haven't asked me anything yet Bonnie. What are you writing?"

Bonnie stopped writing and looked at Elena.

"I want to write my questions down."

Elena just smiled and nodded. Next to druids the subject of vampires had become another obsession of Bonnie's. Elena just watched Bonnie write away on her pad.

"Okay Elena are you ready?"

Elena nodded at Bonnie who flipped the pages in the notepad.

"How do you become a vampire?"

Bonnie had her pen in her hand ready to start writing. She really should be a reporter Elena thought to herself.

"Blood is an important part of becoming a vampire."

Bonnie nodded and kept writing.

"It isn't like the movies where the vampire bites you on the neck."

"Really? I always found that to be so romantic."

Looking around the room Elena gestured at Bonnie to come closer. When she was close enough Elena whispered in her ear.

"What?"

Bonnie jumped as if she'd been burned. She must have heard wrong.

"Calm down Bonnie."

Elena was glad that they were the only ones in the house.

"Your ass?"

"Bonnie be quiet."

Bonnie looked around almost as if she expected people to come running into the room with torches and stakes. Elena walked over to Bonnie and guided her back to the bed.

"I'll get you you some water."

Elena went downstairs and to the kitchen. She opened the fridge and grabbed a bottle of water. She went back upstairs where she found Bonnie sitting on the bed.

"Here have some water."

Bonnie took the bottle from Elena who had already twisted the cap off. She took a long drink.

"Feeling better?"

Bonnie nodded as she continued to drink the water. Elena sat down on the bed next to Bonnie.

"Elena?"

"Yes I did say that."

Bonnie gulped before she spoke again.

"He bit your ass cheek and drank from it?"

Elena nodded.

"Did you have to drink from his?"

"No."

Bonnie raised an eyebrow. No matter how often she tried it Elena was never able to master the raised eyebrow.

"How do you do that?"

"What?"

"Raise one eyebrow. I've even tried doing it in front of the mirror."

Elena tried again which sent Bonnie into a fit of giggles. It was good to see her laugh after all the insanity.

"That felt good."

"Glad my eyebrow could cheer you up."

Bonnie picked up on her notepad and pen.

"So he drank from your ass cheek but you didn't drink from his?"

Bonnie blushed at the place where Elena might have drank his blood from.

"Get your mind out of the gutter Bonnie."

"Um I have no idea what you're talking about."

"Bonnie you look like a tomato."

"It's warm in here."

Bonnie started waving her hand in front of her.

"Yeah that's it."

Bonnie looked at her notepad trying not to think about where Elena drank.

"I drank from his ear."

Bonnie looked up not expecting to hear ear.

"Ear?"

"That's not what you expected me to say was it?"

Bonnie just nodded as she continued to write away in her notepad.

"Well the ass is nice and fleshy but when you're a human the ear is the best place to suck from."

Bonnie looked up from her pad.

"Did he kiss you?"

"Of course he did. There's a whole ritual."

"Ritual?"

"He drank from my right cheek first."

Bonnie kept her head down and kept writing hoping that Elena wouldn't notice her blushing again.

"Next he drank from my left . You see it all depends on what hand you write with. So if I was left handed it would be done with the left one first."

"Wow."

"It doesn't just happen overnight. The next night he did my ears and so on. It ended with my big toes."

"So he worked his way from top to bottom. Or would that be from bottom to stop since he started with that?"

Elena laughed as Bonnie started blushing again.

"So that's how I became a vampire. Do you want me to do you?"

"What?"

Elena smiled as she said, "That sounded dirtier than I thought it would."

"I could always ask Damon."

"Good luck with that. Now if you'll excuse me. I'm going to get something to eat."

"But what about my questions?"

"Ask Damon to fill you in when you decide to get your ass cheek sucked."

Elena left and Bonnie sat on the bed. She had no idea how she could go about asking Damon.

"I could always say, 'Wanna suck my ass cheek.'"

Bonnie started laughing until tears ran down her face.
