Hiiii I hope you don’t mind me requesting again! I love the one you did for me! It made me incredibly happy.

May I request a Lorenzo St. John x female reader? This time I was thinking of a lot of fluff and hurt/comfort? If that’s okay of course. Again, human reader please. This time reader is very stubborn and always acts tough. She dislikes supernaturals a lot. She’s friends with Elena and her group.

One day reader gets kidnapped and threatened by an enemy vampire if the Salvatore’s. The brothers save her, but once she gets home she starts to panic and cry because she’s had enough and doesn’t know if she can take anymore of the supernatural drama. But Enzo stops by her house to ask for a favor and the reader acts like she’s fine but it’s obvious she’s been crying and he tries to comfort her, despite her not liking him much.

Ahhh sorry this is long again! I just have so many ideas….um ignore this if it’s too much. I hope you have a wonderful full day and night!!

Description: The reader is kidnapped by an old enemy of the Salvatores and as tries to pretend that everything is okay but fails at doing so.

Warnings: she/her pronouns, fluff, swearing

*Requests are open, please send through as many requests as you want, check my character list and requesting rules.*

I honestly got so excited when you requested Enzo! Thank you for requesting again and yay! I'm so happy the other one made you happy. I'm glad! I'm honestly not happy about how this one turned out but I hope you still enjoy it regardless.

First Person's POV

Once I turned 18 I promised I would leave Mystic Falls for good. This town is a goddamn beacon for chaos and danger. I wouldn't even be surprised if a hole to the end of the world opened right in the centre of town. One thing I hated more than maths was the supernatural beings that thought the world revolved around them. Of course, I loved Caroline, Bonnie and Elena. I tolerated Stefan and Damon but the others... the others it depended on who they were and what they've done. I tried my best to stay away from the chaos that the group got themselves into, sometimes it was relatively easy and other times it was damn hard.

Every day I make a bet with myself about if it's gonna be an easy day or a damn hard day. I made a bet that it'll be a damn hard day. I don't know what gave me that feeling, it was just that uneasy feeling when I woke up this morning and considering that the Salvatores had been kidnapped and beaten the last few days, I just assumed that the streak of unpleasantness would continue.

Heading towards the town square, I stood, waiting for the girls to show up, putting myself on edge due to the sudden paranoia that someone would be out to get me.

I don't know how it happened, or when it happened but I woke up, tied up and sitting on a mattress laid across the ground. I refused to cry, I would not let myself be seen as weak and give whatever asshole decided to use me as fish bait.

"Y/n... Y/n... Y/n..." I stared angrily at the figure, recognising the person as a Traveller, I rolled my eyes and stared at the figure flabbergasted as he slapped me.

"I need the Salvatores to come here, I see them with you, so here we are," I grunted through the rag, groaning as he pulled it from my mouth and went to speak but was literally hushed by the twit. He put his damn finger on my lips with a tut to silence me.

"Listen here... I don't care about how you want to run your damn mouth, I don't have the time, all I care about is bringing the Salvatores here and following the plan."

"And that would be?"

"Noneya."

"Oh, how mature," I muttered, hissing in pain as his fist collided with my face, I took another breath and smiled at the man showing that I didn't care and that it didn't faze me at all. I grunted as he shoved the rag back in and proceeded to pace the room. I couldn't help but flinch as the door slammed open and within the blink of an eye the Salvatores easily dealt with the guy and the adrenaline seemed to take away my thought processing and I ended up back home without really realising it.

I took a shower, got into my pyjamas, plopped down on the couch and that's when it all came out. I could feel my hands begin to shake, a tightness in my chest formed that made it hard to breathe. The tears came cascading down, the whole room seemed to spin and I couldn't stop my sobs from escaping. I do not want to go through that again, I do not want to be kidnapped and hurt. I can't go through that, this is all too much, maybe I should just move away? Get away from the town of death and suffering.

I couldn't tell you how long I had been crying for, I couldn't even tell you how the panic attack stopped or if it even stopped. I was sitting in a pool of tissues, I had already nearly gone through an entire box, I don't think I've cried this much before, I can't think of a time when the pain has been this bad.

I jumped hearing a knock on my door, I quickly and roughly rubbed my eyes doing my best to make the tears go away and hope that whoever it was wouldn't need anything from me. I forced a smile to my lips as I opened the door, surprised to see the lovely Enzo there, he was a vampire I liked and I will admit there are times when I prefer him over the Salvatores but also just like most of the supernatural my tolerance normally ran low.

"Enzo- hi."

"Hello, gorgeous... listen I need a favour-" The vampire cut himself off, he glanced around to the living area and then back at me. I did my best to keep smiling, not wanting to let my guard down.

"Gorgeous, what's going on?"

"I'm fine Enzo, listen I've got a busy day tomorrow and as much as I'm sure the favour cannot wait I cannot help you today." I tried closing the door on him, groaning as he easily stopped it and slipped into my home. I bit the inside of my cheek, finding it harder and harder to continue pretending that I was okay.

"You've been crying..."

"N-no I haven't. I said I am fine." I tried to make my words more pointed, hoping he'll truly believe that I was 'fine' but Enzo is smart and it was clear that my bullshit lies weren't enough to convince him.

"Talk to me, please." I wrapped my arms around myself, shaking my head, the tears inevitably coming, I could feel my lips quivering and my body shake as the sobs escaped my lips. I could feel Enzo leading me to the couch, he brushed away the tissues and sat beside me.

"Y/n... what's going on? What happened."

"I- one of the travellers took me and used me as bait to draw in the Salvatores... I can't deal with the supernatural any longer... I don't want to go through that again. This- this anxiety, I can't... I won't go through that again. I'm so scared Enzo, I can't keep pretending that I'm fine because everyone looks to me because they think I'm tough but the truth is-" I let out a sob that would prevent me from going on any further without struggling to voice my concerns. I shook my head, angry with myself for blubbering in front of Enzo.

I felt him wrap an arm around me, he lightly rubbed my shoulder, against all my wishes, I let myself curl against him. At that moment I didn't care about who was comforting me, all I cared about was seeking someone who would offer me the comfort I clearly needed.

"I can make it easier for you- I can... if you're comfortable, I can compel you... I can make it go away." I considered, that maybe it would make it easier to just disappear... make it easier to get away from all of this. I was about to allow him to do that but then I thought of Bonnie and Caroline and Elena... I couldn't do that to them.

"N-no, no. Thank you."

"If you ever change your mind... I know we aren't close, I think you don't like me at all but I'll make it go away. If you ever want." I took a few deep breaths, nodding and appreciating that Enzo would do this for me even after knowing that I wasn't his biggest fan.

"I don't not not like you but- it's not important right now."

"You know, you know gorgeous... I still think you are pretty tough, you know it's okay to cry and it's okay be worired." It felt reassuring to know that, I never wanted to let anyone down and I wanted them to know that I am strong and I am tough. That these things won't bother me or effect me.

"Means a lot to me."

I've been maladaptive daydreaming about Bonnie and Kai again so I throw one of my AUs to you, ravenous hoards.

Bonkai but it’s Tom and Jerry

Crack AU where Kai isn't stabbed and left in the 1903 prison world but that sure isn't for lack of trying. Bonnie fails to stab him because either:

Elena has a badly timed self righteous moment and stops Bonnie because "we have to be better!" Bonnie, who is on thin emotional ice, snaps at Elena about double standards, which is totally not about any other issues in their friendship or anything. Bonus points if Elena is like "This isn't like you, why does Kai get under your skin so much?" And Kai is like, low key smug about it ("See Bonster, you're being the unreasonable one ;)" Bonnie is gonna set something on fire. Maybe herself)

He literally just knocks her out with magic. Bonnie forgetting she has magic and doesn't need to wrestle someone with a knife, makes sense. Kai? Who just became a coven leader and is brimming with magic? Absolutely not. After knocking her out he brings her back from the prison world because he honestly gets the eye for an eye, stab for a stab thing. That was like, his entire moral compass before the merge. Is he a little mad? Yes. But also, it was fair. Bonus points if Kai actually lets Bonnie stab him before he knocks her out like "Now we're even we can be friends :)" (they can't)

They get back and Kai is very mad at Damon and Jo for agreeing to the plan. Bonnie though, who literally just tried to kill him? He's totally cool with her. Because Kai is frustrated that people won't trust him or forgive him because he doesn't know why they won't. He doesn't understand heartbreak or trauma or loss, and why that would stop people from forgiving him. But like, the second Bonnie says "It doesn't feel very good to be stabbed in the back does it?" all of her shit makes complete sense to him. That is like, exactly what Kai said to his father when he was choking him to death. Its vengeance and a grudge. Completely reasonable. Once she gets over it she'll forgive him and they can be friends :)

Bonnie, meanwhile, wants him dead. She can't sleep. She can't eat. He has to die. Bonnie is totally fine, completely understands that her friends needed to move on and her boyfriend needed to sleep with everything and she is legally dead so can't actually go to college anymore because how do you even reverse that decision and she has to sell her fathers empty house and its all totally cool. She's not mad. Kai is the problem. The only thing she is mad about is Kai. The only thing wrong with her life right now is Kai being alive.

So Kai is trying to get revenge on Damon and Jo for betraying him and Bonnie is following him around with a fucking gun like: "just DIE." But he keeps avoiding all her murder plots while going "Hi Bon! Nice to see you. You look lovely in that coat by the way :) Same time next week?" And she is livid. He doesn't even try and kill her back! Does he not think she's a threat?! She's killed an original vampire and collapsed the veil between the living and the dead she is NOT USELESS. Bonus points that Bonnie is ranting about how she is not useless to Liv who's just like, "Girl, I fucking know. How does he escape all our murder attempts." Because I want Bonnie to get witchy friends and Liv and Bonnie absolutely match eachothers freak of:

Eventually, Kai manages to get a chance to kill Jo and avenge himself. Primarily because Bonnie is distracted by Damon's heretic drama and doesn't get in the way. (Because she might not be able to kill him, but she sure does inconvenience him. It's not like Bonnie's not incredibly competent, Kai is just very good at avoiding death.) But when he has Jo in front of him, he still can't bring himself to kill her. Or even maim her.

He also comes to the dawning realisation that if he kills Damon (which he has no emotional drawbacks doing) Bonnie won't want to be his friend. And that's one of Kai's main goals, and Kai may have emotions now like frustration and anger, but he's still incredibly goal orientated *cough cough* loses his shit because he won't achieve goal of being coven leader *cough cough*

Why does he want Bonnie to be his friend? Well why wouldn't he? Have you met her? I mean:

She's fun, he's been having a great time trying to outsmart her. Wait, you think he's mad that she's been thwarting his revenge plans? He spent 20 years being able to do whatever he wanted without resistance and let me tell you it got boring fast. And now he's coven leader so everyone kinda just does what he says, and honestly it sucks. And since he got these emotion things he's really needed to keep himself occupied because otherwise they feel terrible, and he's already figured out all the Gemini's interesting witchy woo secret spells, so trying to outthink Bonnie has been a really fun use of his time.

Bonnie is the first person he ever saw actually forgive a monster (Damon). Like, repeatedly. Seriously, he thought forgiveness was just lip service before watching that happen. And she's smart and observant and he googled his symptoms, and according to google he admires her. So if she can decide to forgive him, and actually ends up liking him, it would be fantastic confirmation that he is a different person now :)

The books say to be a good person you have to make connections with people you like, and she's funny and pretty and he enjoys it. Originally he thought that was just him seeing a girl for the first time in twenty years and getting excited, but no he definitely enjoys Bonnie way more than most people.

Drawback: she's still like, super mad at him. And he googled it (the internet is so useful) and apparently people who are mad at you need space (didn't help him but hey, he didn't have emotions before). And he can't get revenge on Jo or Damon anymore. And honestly the heretic business is starting to get on his nerves. So he just leaves.

Bonnie is furious because she needs to kill him and now he's just gone? But I have to kill him! What do you mean he's not a problem anymore? What are you talking about of course he is- no Caroline I'm not being unreasonable I need him dead and he just leaves why does he keep LEAVING- (Bonnie has a lot of issues. Even Liv is like "chill." Bonnie does not, in fact, chill. She's totally not also been using her plots to kill Kai as a way to avoid her emotions. Because her and Kai aren't similar at all.)

And now, for the rest of the show, Bonnie keeps randomly disappearing for episodes on end because she's on yet another roadtrip to kill Kai. He keeps escaping her plots. It's hilarious. This is great for a few reasons:

1) Solves the "Bonnie is OP" plot problem

While a majority of the reason Julie Plec wanted to write Bonnie out was because of racism, Bonnie does also pose a bit of a writer problem. Essentially, there is a point in TVD where Bonnie gets like, so much more powerful than everyone other protagonist. But TVD can't actually scale up their villains to match her because everyone else would literally just die or be useless. So whenever TVD wants to do a plot with stakes they've got the good old LOTR "Why didn't the eagles just fly them to Mordor" problem. Why can't Bonnie fix this immediately? And so we get the "Bonnie loses her powers" which, fun the first two times, a bit old the third, and fucking infuriating the fifteenth time. Then we have the "Bonnie, usually hyper competent, acts uncharacteristically dumb" which is somehow even worse. Or "the camera hasn't panned to Bonnie in this scene even though she's definitely there, and would definitely be doing something right now. One can assume she's just staring at a wall?"

This fixes that problem! Whenever the writer's need Bonnie gone for a plot to have stakes they can just send her on a Kai hunt. People are like, "Oh no this evil vampire has come back Bonnie can you- Bonnie? Bonnie where are you going?" "I just got a lead on Kai I gotta go." "Bonnie we're literally about to be attacked by a vampire can this wait?" "I'll just be a second." "Bonnie wait get out of the car-" "Call me if you need me." "We will need you to do a sp-aaand she's gone."

Another bonus of this AU is Damon is annoyed as hell about this. Totally not jealous that she keeps disappearing on him even when he asks her to stay to go chase Kai. (This is all part of my evil plan for Bonnie's angry obsession with Kai to actually be helping her establish boundaries)

She comes back after ten episodes and Caroline's all slightly amused "So is he dead?" And Bonnie's like "Don't talk to me." She also smells a lot like roses for some reason? (Eventually Caroline asks and apparently Bonnie woke up surrounded by 555 yellow roses because she "looks good in yellow." Caroline thinks Bonnie's exaggerating. She is not.)

My headcanon btw is that Caroline is our first shipper. Or at least, realises there's more to Bonnie's obsession with murdering Kai. I mean, every time Bonnie comes back from a Kai hunt shes actually calmer and happier then she was before, despite it being a fail. Caroline actually thinks it might be weirdly healthy for her.

2) Bonnie gets to actually be a witch!

Don't you love how Bonnie has the whole expression arc where she realises she has to connect with the spirits and nature to be a good and happy witch, and then they never have her doing that? Don't you love how Bonnie's entire story could've been about self acceptance because she was raised separated from communities including her grandmother who could understand her, repeatedly told she wasn't different and taught to act like something she's not by her father who was ashamed of and hated her background? And her finally having a good relationship with the spirits and her ancestors could've been a way of accepting herself and who she is? But instead they kept taking away her powers, having her never interact with other witches, and tried to fix it with a romance that they also ruined immediately? Because I sure don't.

This way, Bonnie can travel the world! While she's hunting Kai! She can talk to other covens (because he'll probably be pissing them off, lets be honest). She'll be working on her magic consistently in order to overpower him, and learning more about magic in order to counter his.

Bonus points for Bonnie accidentally becoming friends with most of the Gemini coven. Because she keeps running into them trying to kill Kai and they're all fucked up enough to match her insanity. Liv is the beginning of this trend but Bonnie eventually ends up like, becoming roommates with an actual Gemini siphon and Kai is sulking in the corner like "Why does she want to be friends with that siphon and not me..." (buddy, you being a siphon is not the problem)

Gemini coven meeting and Sandra is like "Oh I had coffee with Bonnie the other day!"

And then fucking Gerald on the opposite side of the table perks up: "Ooo I haven't seen her in forever, how was she?"

"Good, she doesn't like the new Iron Man though which is crazy."

Over on the other side Beatrice is like: "It's true we went to see that together last week."

And Kai's like, "So do you think she wants to join-" And is immediately no'd. Bonnie does not want to join the Gemini coven. She will never want to join the Gemini coven. Stop asking.

And then he goes home and curls up with a tub of icecream and some pork rinds like "I wanna see movies with Bonnie :(" Before purposefully doing something to blow his cover so she tracks him down again.

3) The pure fucking comedy potential

Seriously no dynamic has ever been this funny. The Tom and Jerry dynamic has no equal. Kai lures Bonnie to an abandoned apartment building. There are rumours he's doing blood magic. She enters. It is a decked out movie theatre with couches and string lights. He offers her popcorn. They're watching Bladerunner now?

She poisons his drink and when he drinks it she goes "So much for the all knowing Gemini coven leader! That was poison." And he's just like "Oh I know :)" "You... know?" "Yeah but I didn't wanna be rude. This is the first thing you've made me you know? I have the antidote here. Amazing poison by the way its really well made, could barely taste it." Bonnie is losing her mind.

4) Bonnie is more than a solver of problems

Bonnie gets her own goals she's plotting towards, rather than constantly always helping Damon or Elena or Caroline with their things. Like, the reason Bonnie's obsession with Kai is actually kind of healthy for her is that she sets boundaries about it. If anyone ,even her friends, try to stop her she absolutely snaps at them. No she will not relinquish her grudge against Kai for you, she will not relinquish it until he's dead.

She gets entire plot points where she isn't being constantly overshadowed by all the other characters. And, just to absolutely disclaimer, Kai is not superior to Bonnie in this AU. He's not getting out of her attempts on his life because he's outsmarting her every single time. He is just supernaturally good at not dying. There are times when she wins and he narrowly escapes.

They're fairly evenly matched which is why Kai (and totally not also Bonnie) enjoy it. They're pulling a whole Sherlock Holmes esq "he knows that I know that he knows-" for every murder plot and literally no one else can follow it.

Though you'd think eventually Kai would get unlucky and die by Bonnie's hand, no matter how slippery he is. Except, shockingly, as this goes on Bonnie's murder plots get more and more convoluted, and you could swear there have been some moments where she could've killed him, but didn't. How bizarre...

5) Doesn't rule out BonEnzo at all

The thing about this AU is that, how I see it, it is a very very slow burn. They might not even end up in a "relationship" relationship at the end. Like Bonnie is slow burning into having a friendship that isn't transactional, she doesn't have to earn affection, people can just actually like her. Even when she's being actually insane. And Kai is slow burning realising he hasn't become an entirely different person, but that's kind of okay because Bonnie still likes him somehow so maybe you don't need to be someone's monster just because you're not their perfect son/brother/friend. Maybe there is a middle ground. Anything more than this slow burn is a bonus.

Also for me this friendship slow burn needs to happen before anything else. We're not just randomly having a sex scene. It doesn't make sense for the characters. Are they both attracted to eachother? Yes. But Bonnie is not emotionally impulsive enough to just sleep with someone because she's attracted to them, she's been fucked over too many times. And Kai's number one priority is being friends with Bonnie so he really doesn't want to make her madder at him than she already is, and apparently sleeping with a woman is a whole thing and can make them mad at you. So he will not be doing that.

In this sense, Bonnie can one hundred percent have a relationship with Enzo without it causing any issues. In fact, I can 100% see the dynamic being:

Bonnie: (◡‿◡🌸)

Bonnie: (ʘ‿ʘ🌸) Kai is in Virginia

Bonnie: (ʘ‿ʘ)ノ🌸 Enzo hold my flower

Enzo: 🌸＼(｡^_^｡) A roadtrip? Lovely. Kick his ass baby I got your flower

I know, "but wouldn't Kai get jealous?" I don't know he seemed pretty keen to help out Jeremy and chat with him about how much Jeremy loves Bonnie. Really I feel like BonEnzo plus Kai in this crack world would essentially boil down to:

After Bonnie tries to kill Kai they regularly just, have a debrief session, where both Enzo and Kai talk about how ingenious Bonnie's shield spell was! Absolutely, you know she found that spell in some ancient witch book that no one could translate and then translated it in three days?

Kai: No kidding? And she used it on me :D

Enzo: Isn't she just terrifyingly powerful?

Kai: Yep. Hot.

Enzo: I could not agree more.

Bonnie, who just woke up tied to a couch with a glass of whiskey and a gourmet meal in front of her: Enzo is now really the time

"Wouldn't Enzo get jealous?" No because he's secure in his relationship with Bonnie, next question.

(Bamon could also work with this too I guess. A different dynamic because he 100% would get jealous and I mean, I don't like the ship so I'm not gonna put it in my headcanon, but you could do it)
