I ship Bonnie with a lot of people but if your fic is going to have Kai in it and Bonkai isn’t endgame I’m not going to read it.
The only exception I have to this is Tonnie and that’s a) because there’s so few fics with them and b) due to their positions as worst treated characters it’s the only ship I can reasonably see shipped over Bonkai. But this is something I’ve never come across and probably never will.
Bonnie sat peacefully humming to herself in what was to be her son’s nursery. There were still a few things that needed to be added but they had everything they needed set up if she went into labor early.
She was in awe of everything, she never thought she could be this happy–life had never been that kind to her–but here she was happily married and getting ready to welcome her first child into the world and the best part about it was that there wasn’t danger looming over her head.
Although, despite her happiness, today did have a dark cloud–it was the five year anniversary of her best friend’s death. They tried everything they could, even sunk so low as to ask for Kai’s help but he wouldn’t budge no matter what they offered him. They realized the only thing they could do was make sure she was comfortable when she died and say their final goodbyes. A tear fell from her eye thinking back on that day.
She rubbed her stomach reminding herself of all the happiness she’s had since then. After enduring tragedy after tragedy it seemed it was finally her time to be happy–for real this time.
That’s how Tyler found her, sitting in a rocking chair tearfully smiling down at their baby.
“Hey, you,” he whispered trying not to ruin the moment.
“Hey, how was the store?”
“A complete nightmare, you’re lucky you stayed home, your back would have been killing you.”
“What’s new,” she said snorting.
“I thought you were resting?”
“I tried, but I couldn’t stop thinking about everything so I came in here to calm me down.”
He walked over to his wife and kneeled in front of her. Taking her face in his hands he said, “Everything is going to alright. Nothing is after us and nothing is after our baby. Everything is great and nothing is going to ruin that.”
“I know. It’s just so hard to believe.”
“Well believe it baby because it’s true. We are well on our way to being the average American family, 2.5 kids and all.”
“Nothing will ever be average about us.”
“I suppose the witch and werewolf thing get in the way of that, but it won’t stop us from being happy, and I am very very happy.”
“Me too,” she said filled with joy.
He leaned into her and kissed her softly. “I’m glad to hear that.”

An AU where Tyler is a werewolf and heals in the trunk of his car. Or better yet an AU where Tyler doesn’t even show up to stop Damon because why would he give a flying fuck about Damon Salvatore, a man who killed both his father and his uncle, and lives the rest of his life away from Mystic Falls as planned until he runs into Bonnie while out on one of her travels.
They can’t get each other out of their heads and instead of fight the familiarity they act on it and fall in love and eventually get married and have a baby continuing their family lines that were completely dismantled in canon.

So, what’s going on almost a year ago I made this post and I know some of you including myself are getting impatient so I’m posting this. You guys can view your responses and others.
I’m still going to make a post about the results and why I asked those questions as it’s not the full results. I had two different focus groups for the survey and those comparisons will eventually when I finish tallying and analyzing your results and theirs.
Finally a week later, sorry it took so long but hopefully the length of this list makes up for it. Please note when asked for fic recs I take them very seriously and as noted by this long list I will rec you a million and one fics especially without many restrictions on what you’re looking for. Some of these you may or may not have read but I’m putting them here anyways in case you hadn’t.
Oh my God, you’re caught between a vampire and a wolf. You know who that makes you’ ‘Don’t say it, Caroline.’ ‘Bella Swan.’ ‘I told you not to say it.’ ‘Come on Bonnie, how could I not say it.‘
While this is a Damon, Bonnie, Tyler love triangle I consider this a Tonnie fic all the way because not much case is made for Bamon at all in this fic.
Bitten by CarlyCo: Bonnie is back from the dead and she just wants to have a normal life. But her quest for a normalcy is derailed when Damon decides to use authentic ‘hillbilly’ moonshine to get over Elena. A moonshine fueled one-night stand with an unexpected partner results in Bonnie biting off more than she can chew. Although, to be fair, Bonnie wasn’t the one doing the biting.
I love this fic and this author and this pairing it’s like a trifecta of greatness for me.
Tyler was told Bonnie was dead so why is she partying it up at a New Orleans nightclub? Before Tyler has a chance to investigate, his memories of Bonnie are wiped and the King of the Quarter himself thrusts Tyler into a struggle for the city, a struggle Bonnie is already very much a part of.
Pretty much what we always wanted with Bonnie away from the MFG, in fact they think she’s dead. It also does a great justice Tyler and framing the pain Klaus put him through. Along with Tonnie there’s also some great Klonnie flirting.
Indecent Liasions by charrrmed: The night of the Originals’ ball finds Bonnie taking a walk to clear her head of her problems. She stumbles upon Tyler who is desperately trying to break Klaus’ sire bond, only to suffer a disappointing setback when he learns Bill, who was supposed to mentor him, is dead. Could this be what actually sets him free? What follows is a story about two teenagers, one more lost than the other, coming together and exploring a different use for the banes of their existence, their powers.
A nice sexy alternative to the Mikaelson Ball and why she was missing from it,
Bonnie’s disillusioned after Shane turns out to be just another person looking to take advantage of her, and Tyler’s anger is reaching a boiling point after his mother’s murder. When the two run into each other at a bar, things get physical, and despite (and in spite of) Tyler’s relationship with Caroline, they keep getting physical.
Warning: it is a cheating fic, but has some really hot smut.
But in this reality you are Tyler Lockwood, ultimate player, d bag, man w****. She’s Bonnie, the most beautiful girl in school, the only one you’ve been able to fall in love with … a branch off from the Bamon in “My Last Breath” R/R
This one is actually a prequel to a different fic but you don’t have to read the other fic for it to make sense, in fact it make more sense if you don’t read it.
Bonnie is forced to have children by a vampire hunter.
TW: Rape, it’s essentially Bonnie and Tyler get kidnapped by either Augustine or the Armoury, I can’t remember which one they chose they’re essentially the same, and are forced to breed to create a better vampire hunter. They obviously bond over the exact same trauma and the desire to leave with the same stakes.
Who wishes that Tyler and Bonnie were closer? What if the Masquerade happened differently? ‘How did the pull he once felt for her became the only thing that was literally holding him to the ground and making sure he didn’t drown? In all of one night, Bonnie became his air.. and he wouldn’t change it for anything in this world.
I think the summary explains it all. Warning it does bash the main trio and Katherine.
Bonnie and Tyler embark on a sexual journey together. Takes place before the show starts in their Sophomore year.
It’s a smut fic that does a great job of not over-sexualizing Bonnie, it’s literally her journey into having sex and the fun and not so fun parts of it.
Flesh by waitingforyouonce: Tyler returns to Mystic Falls intent on getting revenge on Klaus, but a charged encounter with a recently resurrected Bonnie changes his focus and he decides to stay in town for a different reason.
Another smut fic that deals with the aftermath of Klaus banishing Tyler but takes a sexy detour.
When Tyler first gets the words “First of all, bitch…” on his arm as his mark, he is obviously less than pleased. He also never expected that it would be the response to tapping Bonnie (also known as “Hot Girl Who Works at the School LIbrary”) on the shoulder two years later. Unfortunately, Bonnie thinks he’s a spoiled, arrogant, douchebag. She’s right, obviously (not that he’d ever admit it).
An adorable soulmate fic that features a Bonnie and Tyler in college with none of the things that happened in canon so they’re a lot more light-hearted.
College preparedness includes meeting your professor before the first day of class. A visit to Whitmore leads to Bonnie’s first teacher evaluation, Caroline’s turn as a mentor, and Elena’s first blood high.
A fic that plays on what I really liked about Shennett in the beginning which was that he brought back S1 Bonnie who was bubbly and full of wonder. Also there’s some pretty hot sex and it’s essentially what 4×04 should have been.
Mentor by Albion19: Missing scene set in 4×10. Shane promises to always protect her and Bonnie starts to realise it is more than a mentoring relationship for her.
One of many nice AU’s of season four but with Shennett, the ship I was never quite able to get over.
Bonnie Bennett didn’t really know what love and hate was until she met Him. He changed everything. Her understanding of the world, her feelings, her passions. He changed her for good. When she is trapped between loyalty, desires, love and hatred – what would she choose? Bonnie & Shane, takes place after 4×10; T for now.
Unfortunately there’s only one short chapter but when it comes to this pair I take what I can get especially if it’s well written.
Bonnie Bennett has been in love with unrepentant playboy Damon Salvatore for as long as she can remember. On the worst day of her life, the young woman learned that she was going to be his wife. At first, it felt like a dream come true. The merger of their powerful families increased their wealth and influence exponentially. There wasn’t a woman or man alive that wasn’t envious. Four years later, their life is plagued by lies, secrets, manipulation, infidelity, and violence. Bonnie has finally realized that fairytales aren’t real and that she needs to grow up fast. Will Damon and Bonnie’s marriage be able to weather the oncoming storm?
One of my favorite fic ever, it’s just so elaborate and well thoughout It’s Bamon probably in it’s purest form in that Damon doesn’t deserve her and in turn loses her and almost everything. It’s not finished yet, but at some point I assume he does earn her back, but as of right now it’s very Tonnie oriented as far as pairings go, but so much more than pairings are going on in this fic.
Even if she was less vapid and more interesting than the other women he was seeing, this thing tonight wasn’t going beyond coffee and hopefully sex. (AU, No Supernatural)
A nice all human Bamon fic that, like most Bamon fics, has him OOC while completely in character because that’s the only way to write him in a palatable way.
At 18, Damon Salvatore was the Golden Boy of Mystic Falls with the world at his fingertips. He had money, a football scholarship to a prestigious school and power people could only dream of. At 19, he’s become one of the most dangerous drug dealers Mystic Falls has ever seen. And Bonnie Bennett can’t help her dangerous attraction to him. All human. R&R please and thank you
This is a great fic that I read in one whole night when I should have been sleeping.
Damon Salvatore could be arrogant, annoying, and sometimes downright intolerable. Damon Salvatore had a soft spot for those he cared about, an amazing heart, and eyes that could reach inside someone’s soul if you stared long enough. Damon Salvatore was my bestfriend, and I’ve known him since I was born. So, falling for him was out of the question… right? (all human)
It’s a nice AH/AU that basically rewrites the whole MFG. It has a Damon who fights for Bonnie, a Bonnie who has multiple people vying for her attention.
What happens when Bonnie Bennett, law student and all around Good Person, finds herself living next to the infamous Damon Salvatore, rock-star/playboy-guitarist, all around Not-So-Good-Person? Collection of loosely connected one-shots. (rom-com drama)
Like most of my Bamon recs it’s AH which makes sense because that’s really the only way I tolerate Damon, that’s very in character to how their relationship/friendshi would have evolved. as noted by “both” there’s the original and the rewrite, both are great.
Seven by bellavida0213: Seven days until his freedom, Damon reflects back on his life with Bonnie Bennett, the mother of his children and what lead him to lose her. He is determine to win her back and lead a straight life. AU All Human. Mentions of recreational drug use
Again me and my AH/AU ass, this is a great kis fic as well as over arcing story ans the kids don’t take over the fic. It’s a great perspective on life in poorer communities and the system.
Bonnie and Damon have never been able to stand each other, despite the fact that she’s best friends with his brother. Struggling to break free of their own toxic relationships, they find an escape in each other, while desperately trying to fight any feelings that may go beyond the physical. AU/AH
An AH enemies to lovers fic, not really for Tyler fans, nut note he’s wildly OOC and there mostly to serve as an opposing party for Bamon to show in contrast. But it’s a really great fic and if you love Stelena is feature a great deal of them as well.
Bamon AU. The undead walk the earth. No police. No law. Civilization is dwindling. Bonnie begins to discover her magic a little too late. Can she become the person she needed, or jaded just enough to live only for herself? *Warning* Drugs. Non-Con. Graphic Violence.
A zombie apocalypse AU and the only one I’m recing that has Damon as a vampire and Bonnie as a witch. It does have a depressing undertone but it’s a zombie apocalypse so why wouldn’t it. This fic is a great AU and expansion to the lore.
They didn’t have their memories. They all envied that, though deep down inside they knew if anyone should be able to have that privilege it should be them. Yet with that being said, that privilege came with difficulties because they no longer had their loyalty. It wasn’t until now that they realized how much they relied on them when they were trouble. How much they leaned on them.
This fic is essentially the epitome of “Bonnie and Stefan deserve better.”
The Bennett Coven and the Parker Coven have worked together for centuries to lock evil away in the Prison Worlds but that doesn’t mean Bonnie Bennett and Kai Parker ever have to get along… at least not until a secret is revealed that just might change everything. AU. Rated M for future chapters. (Written for all the people on tumblr who said they were interested.)
Bonnie Bennett is just a typical fresh high school graduate when she came back to Mystic Falls to visit her grandmother. Trying hard to be as normal as she can be, she went to adjust at her seemingly new environment with her two best friends Elena and Caroline. But a college sophomore student named Kai Parker just have to give her a new meaning for the word “normal”.
All her life Bonnie Bennett had followed the rules. Practically wrote the handbook on how to breeze through it without ruffling any feathers. She was perfect, or as close as one could be. Well, at least that had been the case. Until she met him.. Short multi-chapt AU fic. OOC. Lonely housewife. Cheating. Light BDSM. ect.
Bonnie and Kai have been best friends since they were 5, now at 16 they must resolve their feelings for each other. However, the quiet town of Mystic Falls is now haunted by a psychopath who’s hellbent on killing teenage girls. Will the Mystic Falls gang find out who is behind the killings? This story has no supernatural elements, all the characters are normal humans.
Mundane by LiLaAir: Bonnie is living in Portland with her mother. She still has a strong connection to her Mystic Falls life and has created a good way to combine the two worlds. Until she meets Kai Parker, a boy from her school that has quiet a raputation. Bonnie is struggling to keep her life the way she used to handle it. Why does he have such an impact on her? All human and other characters.
Kai has a problem. You see, he can’t help but accidentally siphon Bonnie’s magic whenever he’s turned on and they’re having sex. So, Bonnie ties his hands behind his back and rides him. Bonkai. Rated M for many reasons, I warned you.
These little trysts had started not too long ago. She thinks maybe it had only been about a week or so since they’d begun. She’s not really all that sure. It was all one big blur.
This will be a series of one-shots and mystery-shots (where the pairing is hinted at, but not revealed or is revealed at the end). It will contain different pairings of characters. I have not seen past the second episode of season 4 however. I like to write about parings not seen in the show so there may not be a lot of Stelena/Delena/Beremy. See profile for more info please.
Bonnie is feeling a bit lonely during Valentine’s Day Weekend. She has the opportunity to connect with a certain someone, but feels hampered by her educational obligations. Help Bonnie decide how to spend her weekend, and more importantly who to spend it with. A Bonnie Bennett choose your own adventure with fourteen smutty endings (That’s fourteen different ships)
This is a chose your own adventure fic than can end in almost any pairing you wanting it to you just have to pick the right path.
Bonnie’s a good way past tipsy, so Caroline figures it’s now or never and says, “Can we make this a little racier?
I put this under multi-ship mainly because it’s a foursome smut fic between Bonnie, Jeremy, Tyler, and Caroline, but respectively they’re in their canon pairings.
Complexity by waitingforyouonce: One shots and drabbles that feature Bonnie Bennett in a variety of pairings. Will also include pairings from other tv shows.
No pairing:
in absence of by thebitterbeast: Bonnie makes a decision, and nothing is the same.
This is one of my favorite fics of all time. It’s a fic about the adults of TVD Pre-canon. My favorite chapters are John Gilbert, Jenna Sommers, and Liz Forbes. It brought on pairings I would have never thought of and a whole new light to John Gilbert having to watch his brother raise his daughter. I consider this fic canon it’s that good.
This one has a great perspective on Caroline and Andy and the Damon of it all. It’s a great read especially for those who were baffled and annoyed by Caroline’s reaction to Delena in S4.
Stefan is trapped in the coffin and Silas tells him a story: a story of an ambitious man who loved a woman, and the witch that cursed him forever.
This is my beautiful disaster ship Qetsiyah and Silas and boy is is a beautiful disaster. It has small tweaks to canon but boy do they make all the difference.
Century after century, I watched versions of Stefan and Elena find each other like magnets, always the same story – conquering all, falling in love. You didn’t think your brother was Silas’ first shadow?
More of my beautiful disaster. I honestly wish there was more fics with them or that I could write one but I’ve got so many other fics to finish.
With Stefan trapped in a watery grave and Bonnie no longer on the earthly plane, Silas’ two biggest obstacles are no longer a problem. Everything has gone according plan, but now Silas has to figure out away to a way to bring back the woman he loves. What will happen when it comes out that Stefan & Bonnie haven’t actually been taken care of. Stefan/Bonnie, Silas/Qetsiyah
This is my beautiful disaster in it’s best for, without Amara. It’s also a great Stefonnie fic.
My Fics:
My Discarded Men: I’d like to tell a little story, that’s been told time and time again, about the foolish men who chase me…Bonnie gives up her “judgy” ways and becomes someone far from her usual self, except didn’t tell anyone. Watch her deceive those closest to her.
Literally my first fic in the fandom, first smut fic, and first Bonnie fic. I haven’t reread it in a while so it’s probably not that great but I do at some point plan to go back to this and finish my original concept. Also warning,it has cheating which I’m realizing is a theme with me, lol.
Bonnie’s at Whitmore University when her life complicates. Her affair with her college professor ends when her friendship with her best friend is on the rocks all the while having to deal with her annoying never shuts up neighbor who’s cable ran out.
Current fic I’m working on hopefully I can get an update out soon.
In the 30s Kai Parker has been exiled from the Gemini coven and is living a life of crime traveling across America leaving a trail of bodies in his wake. He ends up in Mystic Falls during one of his travels and meets Bonnie Bennett, a witch who’s had a lot of misfortune. They have a connection that takes them on a journey neither expected.
My Bonkai Bonie & Clyde AU that I need to get back to soon as well.
The Witch and The Werewolf: The full moon was a charged time for both werewolf and witches alike. For witches it was a time to seek the truth and for werewolves it was the time when their true selves would be revealed.Neither Bonnie nor Tyler saw the connection until the blood moon they crossed paths
This was essentially smut to help sate my Tonnie Craving.
Vampires, witches, werewolves, hybrids, things had gotten so complicated and in such a short time. Their lives had always been connected peripherally, but now being among one of the few who knew about the supernatural they interacted regularly and got to know each other more than they ever did in 11 years of childhood in just this last year.
Klaus, the original hybrid who was a threat to everything they knew and loved, was finally dead and they all celebrated with a party that had end a half an hour ago and now it was just the who gang gathered up in the Salvatores living room post party basking in the glow of finally feeling safe, or as safe as on could feel with Damon still around, but still for now there were no threats just a bunch of teenagers drunk after a house party.
“Tyler, truth or dare?” Caroline said walking in with a open new bottle of champagne taking a swig from it.
“What are we? In high school?”
“Yes! Finally we’re just high school students for the first time in what feels like forever. Just answer the question Tyler.”
“Fine, truth.”
“Lame.”
“I’m playing the game, you don’t get to criticize my choice.”
“Fine, let me think of a good question.” Caroline looked around at everyone the room and tried to think about what question would yield the best results. When she eyed Bonnie she knew exactly what to ask. “Who was your first?”
Tyler sighed. Damon rolled his eyes at the juvenile question, Stefan looked disinterested, Bonnie rolled her eyes knowing where this was going and Jeremy just looked bored.
Elena snoredt. “Are you sure he even remembers?”
“He should. You never forget your first. Isn’t that right Damon?”
“You got me there blondie.”
“See, so Tyler should remember his first, if the man-whore over there can.”
“Why are you asking a question you already know the answer to Caroline?”
“Because I don’t, I know who you’ve slept with but I don’t know who was the first.”
Tyler rolled his eyes and conceded. “Bonnie.”
“What?” The three girls said simultaneously.
“I told you, you knew the answer.”
“I knew you were Bonnie’s first but I didn’t know she was yours.”
“It was eight grade who else would I have slept with?”
“I don’t know, Vicki?”
“Hey,” Matt chimed in.
“Don’t act surprised.”
“She was still my sister.”
“I know I’m sorry.”
“Wait a minute, you slept with Tyler,” Jeremy said outraged.
“You slept with Vicki,” Bonnie pointed out.
“Yeah, but I didn’t lie about it.”
“And I didn’t lie about this.”
“But you never told me.”
“When would I have told you?”
“Alright, calm down both of you. If you must argue please take it outside where I don’t have to listen to this high school shit,” Damon rudely interrupted.
Tyler looked at Caroline. “You happy now,” he said pointedly to her enjoying himself way too much. Caroline scoffed.
That was the end of their post celebration. Truth or dare had effectively killed the mood and everyone either went to bed or home. It was late and Bonnie was in the kitchen sitting at the counter enjoy the ice cream straight out of the tub.
Tyler walked in. “Hey.”
“Hi,” she said tentatively.
“Hungry too?” he said with a smile.
“What gave it away?”
He didn’t answer her. He raided the cupboards and fridge to find them both sparsely populated. He settled on a bowl of cereal and plopped down next to her.
“So…crazy night.”
“Yeah.” Silence fell between them—the only noise heard was their eating sounds.
“So why did you act like you didn’t know you were my first?”
Bonnie paused mid scoop, “I wasn’t acting.”
“You had to have known I was just as awkward as you.”
“I wasn’t awkward!”
Tyler laughed loudly and Bonnie soon joined. It was a bold face lie and they both knew it.
“Tyler, do even remember what you were like back then?”
“Vaguely.”
“You were arrogant.”
“Don’t spare my feelings or anything?”
“It’s true. You were arrogant and you liked to talk. There were enough rumors going around that I seriously considered someone else because I thought you had herpes or something. And then after you were just as arrogant, so what was I supposed to think?”
Silence fell on them again and they focused on their food. Bonnie decided she was full and put the ice cream back. She was about to leave to the guest room with Jeremy when his words stopped her.
“You know I have to make it up to you right?”
“What?”
“I have to make it up to you.”
“Why do you have to make it up to me.”
“Because I was horrible and I can’t have you thinking I’m bad at sex.”
They both laughed.
“I’m sure you’ve improved since then.”
“But you won’t know until I show you. It won’t be tonight, or the night after that but eventually I will show you I can be better.”
“Good night Tyler.”
Three Years Ago
Looking back on it, Bonnie can say losing her virginity at 14 wasn’t the best idea. She didn’t particularly regret it, but she definitely wasn’t proud of it. Don’t get her wrong, sex can be a beautiful thing, a fun thing, a pleasurable thing, but it definitely wasn’t any of those things when she was 14 and all she could think about was beating Caroline and Elena at something.
Caroline was the first to have a boyfriend, followed by Elena, and then her. Elena was the first to get boobs, followed by Caroline, and then her. Caroline was the first to get her period, followed by Elena, and then her which she quickly realized was a blessing, but still, she was tired of feeling like the late bloomer, so she decided that she was going to be the first to have sex.
It took less effort than she expected it to, getting a boy to sleep with her. She knew she wasn’t ugly by any means, but she wasn’t a smooth talker, and lucky for her Tyler Lockwood didn’t need her to be anything other than direct. All it took was for her to come up to him at one of his infamous parties and say “want to have sex” for him to disown all his friends and take her up to his room.
It didn’t take him long to attack her mouth and roughly grab her boob quickly rushing them over to his king sized bed. Tyler was excited to have sex with any girl let alone Bonnie. She was the prettiest girl in their year, but also the most reserved, so he had no idea when an opportunity like this would arise again.
He disengaged himself when they reached the end of the bed.
“Should we take off our clothes?” he asked nervously hoping she didn’t back out.
“Um…yeah, sure. And put this on.” She handed him a condom from her pocket. She came prepared.
When they were both completely naked they moved underneath the sheets of his bed with him on top. He looked down at her with an overly excited grin. He had a naked girl underneath him, that had never happened before.
“Can I…can I go in now?”
“Yeah,” she said plainly.
“Alright, brace yourself.”
I am. She thought to herself. From what she heard from others she knew that it was going to hurt, and it did. There was a lot of resistance from her nether region, but that didn’t stop Tyler, he just kept pushing and pushing until he was a far as he could go. Bonnie tried deep breaths but it was too much pain that she had to stop him.
“You want me to get out?” he asked with his voice quaking.
Bonnie shook her head. The thought of him moving even just to get out seemed like it would be just too painful so she had him stay still with his dick inside her.
Though he felt bad that she wasn’t enjoying it as much as he was that didn’t stop the amazing feeling. He tried not to move but his hips went on autopilot moving in and out of her slowly. Bonnie’s face scrunched in pain. He wanted to hold out, tried to hold out until it could get good for her, but the sensation was too good that his hips involuntarily jerked as he released his load in the condom.
“Shit, shit, shit,” he hissed. When his sense came back to him embarrassment filled him as he slowly pulled out and rolled over onto his back. “Sorry.”
“It’s alright.” And she meant it. Though she expected more she was kind of glad he finished, she didn’t know how much longer she could take the pain. Plus she wasn’t expecting it to be perfect, just something to get out of the way and now it was gone. She sat up and motioned to leave.
“You don’t have to go. We could try again this time better.”
She gave him a sympathetic smile. “It’s alright Ty, besides you have a party get back to.” And with that she got dressed and left him to his embarrassment.
When she told Caroline and Elena they were speechless. Sex, while was something they both had thought about, was uncharted territory for them that they both feared. Very few people in their grade had actually had sex and most of it was rumors. So when Bonnie told them both in a very flippant tone that she had sex they were completely dumbfounded.
First, it was Bonnie, they didn’t know how to explain it but she just didn’t do things like that. She was very reserved and careful how she planned things out. Second, she didn’t have a boyfriend, not that they knew of, so they had no idea who she was supposed to have had sex with. And lastly, they were curious about what it was like, especially Elena. Her and Matt had been dating since sixth grade and she felt that they were ready for the next step, but she was too scared to go through with it.
They flooded her with questions which she gladly answered. First question being who.
“TYLER!” they said in unison. He was the oldest boy in their class and though it wasn’t true in the slightest to them that made him the most mature. Bonnie didn’t just pick Tyler randomly, he raised her popularity and was one of the biggest gossips in school so he had already told everyone in school by now. Caroline had heard it through the grapevine but didn’t believe until Bonnie spoke the words herself.
They asked for details but because not much had actually happened she embellished a bit (a lot). Given all the lying she did with the details she wondered why she bothered to go through with it at all, but she guessed that it was for her own peace of mind. It was her goal to make herself feel better, not brag to everyone, and the moment she realized that the better she felt about lying. The real story was for her and only her, well, only her and Tyler. It was a moment they shared which they would remember for the rest of their lives.
The first fic I ever wrote for TVD was a tonnie fic because the slow burn fic I was reading was too slow for me so I just wrote plotless smut for them. The fic is now an unfinished multi-chapter that I do plan on finishing, but that first chapter was a one shot for a while.
What makes this fact weird to me is that I was (and still am) a hardcore Bonkai shipper at the time and my secondary ship was Bamon. Tonnie was not really something I thought about in the context of canon until recently but apparently I shipped them all along. I keep saying they snuck up on me but, no, it was always there in the back of my mind.
I can’t get this idea out of my head of how I would have ended the series finale.
So my ideal way to have ended the with what the show gave us in season 8 was for Elena to die. I make it very known that I don’t like Elena but the way to die in the finale would have made her the center of everything which is kinda weird considering that’s one of my main critisms however the ending needs to reflect the show as a whole which is the one thing the TVD writers got right but decided to make a complete mess of it.
So the way I wanted her to die was due to Kai’s spell. Me and a lot of people always found it completely ridiculous since no one lost anything except for maybe Bonnie (however I don’t consider losing Elena much of a loss for her). Basically the spell while Elena was asleep would slowly deteriorate her brain and she would be losing her memories latest to newest which I think is retrograde amnesia but I’m not quite sure. Basically making Damon believe he would ever get her back but she dies Alzheimer’s as soon as she wakes up at the young age of 18 which would be cruel so right up Kai’s alley imo and sufficiently revenge.
Instead of revealing Katherine, Kai would reveal what the spell was actually doing as his last bargaining chip but Bonnie doesn’t use it knowing from past experience how that works out. Thet try to figure out a way to stop it which just accelerates the process which would bring more validity to that “no loopholes” thing that was inconsequential in canon. The rest of the episode would be them spending what little time she has while she still remembers them.
First would be Damon because he’s obviously the first person who’s memories she’d lose first. Then Alaric, and then Stefan. Then whatever order Bonnie, Caroline, Matt, and maybe Tyler (I would definitely have retconned that entire death since it was inconsequential and there was no real way to make it consequential with how much the pushed him into obscurity) since I don’t remember them being that close, in the S6 finale I was quite confused by their scene together. And then end it with Jeremy in a time in head right after their parents died when she was a good sister.
The end of her journey would be her writing in her diary in the exact scene from the pilot except it would be revealed that the reason she started journaling was because she was losing her memories and that the entire show was her recounting her life. She closes the diary fade to black which signifies her death.
For me that was the best way for her to go out because it would have brought back the Elena every claims to miss from season 1-3 without pissing all over her development from season 4-6 because it would be devastating that she was losing all of it. It’s honestly the only way I would have cared about Elena dying and brought meaning back to her character for me especially with the “damsel in distress” quota they had for her. This ending would have best worked for the end of season 6, but could have worked for season 8 as well, a do over.
If that was the end of season 6 it would cut to the rest of the characters lives in how they were moving on and that would be season 7-8.
If that were the end of season 8 right after the fade to black on Elena everything would light up to Bonnie heavily pregnant in a brightly colored nursery. I’m well aware that women’s lives aren’t incomplete because they don’t have a baby, but it always bothered me that the Bennett line was basically wiped out except for Bonnie and to a degree Abby. Which brings me to the next thing that would be revealed which is Tyler walking into the room and it being revealed that they were married. It also bothered me that they completely wiped out the Lockwoods to the point that none of them including Tyler were alive. This would seem kinda random but it made sense to me that they would be the two to leave Mystic Falls and never want to come back, my version just has the reconnecting at some point. Ideally I would want Kai but plot-wise not enough time develop that at that point plus Bonkai isn’t my fluffy pairing for Bonnie, Tonnie is. Monnie is a close second but the fact that Plec almost made them canon vetos the endgame for me.
After that they have a sweet moment and she goes into labor and they rush to the hospital. Tyler would call Matt which would be him as a sherrif just like in canon. Bonnie would call Caroline to tell her which would cut to a scene of her, Alaric, and the twins who would be older (like age 8-12). They would then call Damon who would be at Elena’s grave because its the anniversary of her death and he’d be sober. Basically he would have learned to live with out her without being self-destructive or just destructive in general. He would end up alone and Elena and eventually his brother because I would actually keep him getting the cure just minus idiotic suicide.
Damon would tell her something about what’s he’s been up to and the others and then Stefan would go to him and he would have a few words with her grave before telling Damon about Bonnie and Tyler.
The end scene would be everyone at the visiting Bonnie and Tyler and their new baby hours later because they live far away from Mystic Falls. They would give their baby, which would be a boy because there’s a lot of girls born, it’s own name because they don’t want the ghosts of all the people they’ve lost on this one baby, basically starting anew. The last name would be Bennett Lockwood because like I said their line completely wiped out. A moment of silence for Elena and then basically everyone gathered together to celebrate Bonnie and Tyler’s happiness.
The End. Everyone Live HEA, except Damon which is how it should be.
That’s how I would have salvaged the train wreck that was the finale. It’s not perfect but to me that’s what would have been the most satisfying.
