“I’m lying if I say I never wanted to hurt him, because I did. That was all I could think of” Bonnie started. “I wanted to punish him for all the things he’d done. I wanted to make him suffer like he made others suffer”
“What did he do? And why couldn’t you hand him over to the police?” Keith asked curious.
Bonnie pulled the sheets. These were the questions she wasn’t sure how to answer. If she answered the first one, she’d put Damon in a bad daylight and that wasn’t the way to forgiveness. If she answered the second, she’d expose him.
“He did some bad things” she answered avoided.
“Who is this guy?” Keith asked. Bonnie looked up, wondering why he asked. “Maybe I know him” he explained.
“Damon” Bonnie answered after a minute of silence.
“Salvatore” Keith added. Bonnie’s forehead crinkled. “You know him?” she asked a little surprised. “Yeah, he’s a vampire” Keith said.
“How do you know all this?” Bonnie asked. “And did you tell anyone?”
Keith shook his head. “Hey, how were you able to handle him when he’s a vampire? I mean, he’d probably be stronger even if he wasn’t”
“Well, I made him fall in love with me to lure him to my house” Bonnie said. “And when he figured it out and tried to escape I caught him by surprise and knocked him down. I chained him up and tortured him. I tried to kill him, but my friends saved him”
“How did you make him fall in love with you?” Keith asked.
“Well, it wasn’t really in love. It was more like a big crush, desire” Bonnie said.
“Yeah, okay, but how did you do it?” Keith repeated the question.
“I used a spell, I’m a witch” Bonnie said without thinking. She gasped and her eyes grew big. “Forget that I said that”
Keith raised an eyebrow. “You think I’m surprised hearing about witches when I know there are such creatures as vampires?”
Bonnie calmed down a bit. “No, I guess not. But please don’t tell anyone” she begged.
“Scout’s honor” Keith swore. “Just make sure you don’t say those kind of things in the presence of a shrink. They’d think you’re crazy”
“That’s why I’m here” Bonnie replied.
A ray of light appeared at the door and footsteps were heard in the hallway.
“Damnit” Keith cursed. “I have to go. They know I’m out of bed”
He got up and tiptoed to the door. When he opened it, Bonnie said: “It was nice talking to you”
He nodded. “We should do this more often” he said and he sneaked out of the room.

Cas stroked his hair and tried to keep his breathing under control. Meg didn’t understand. He needed more. He had lied about the pain being back, but he hadn’t lied about needing another dose. He opened the upper buttons of his shirt, suddenly feeling feverish.
He hurried to the dresser and opened all drawers and cupboard doors. He searched through them, checking all boxes, finding nothing. He slammed everything shut and began to rub his fingers again.
“If I were a medicine cabinet, where would I be?” Cas mumbled trembling and out of breath. He ran to the stairs and sprinted upstairs. He went to the bathroom and opened the mirror cupboard.
“Got it” he said, sighing relieved and he grabbed all boxes that had medicines in it. He took out all the strips and swallowed the pills one by one.
He leaned against the cold, marble wall and sank down on the floor. He closed his eyes and fell asleep.
