That night was the first night Julian spent somewhere other than my apartment, other than my room, other than... my bed. I shivered at the image that rose in my mind of Julian and I moving against eachother ina rythm that was so incredibly familiar somehow.
Heat rose to my cheeks as I thought this. I felt somewhat ashamed at myself over this. Julian seemed to bring out the... worst in me. Damon's mocking smile came to mind. I put my hands to the sides of my head. Things were getting too complicated. These feelings for Julian I was having.... it would never happen. He loved only Jenny, and would never have any sort of feelings towards me. There was also the fact that he believed I was obsessively in love with Damon, and it would not work for him to learn the truth.
I could no longer stay in the empty apartment. I had to get out. Grabbing my coat, I left. Not sure where I was going to go, but knowing, at least for the moment, that it had to be far from here.

Change to Julian's POV
I wandered around the Shadow World version of Jenny's amusement park I had created just for her. I had created a dream house for her, a ring for her, a silver rose for her. All for her. Everything I had done that was worthwhile in my existance had all been for her. Maybe it was time to do something different...
The pond beside me started to shimmer as I looked into it.
"Bonnie." I ordered it with a wave of my hand.
And there she was. Sipping coffee in a club. I sighed and the image disappeared.
It really was time to do something for myself. I smiled.

Change to Bonnie's POV
"Bonnie, you look great. Where did you find those pants" Jordan Carren sat beside me with a glass of wine in her hand.
"Oh, a.... friend of mine gave them to me." I looked away to the dancefloor.
"Really." Jordan let it drop which was totally against her nature of prying until her immense curiosity was satisfied. I looked back to see her innocent smile. Way too innocent.
"Look, I'm gonna go dance, see you in awhile, kay?" I left before she could get on with her odvious plan to ask more questions than I was ready to answer.
I danced furiously to rid myself of the tension that had been with me since Julian had left. It worked until two hands found their way to my leather-clad hips and spun me so I collided with the too-familiar bright, incredibly bright and abnormal, blue eyes. I sank into them without another thought. Julian was apparently back.
