Ok this is the first time that I have written a song fic and my first time at writing in for the TV Show. My normal home is in the books section. I was doing my ironing today when I saw this video in the 100 greatest something's on TV and it inspired me to write this. I hope you like it!
I forgot! The song is Rise by Gabrielle and I own neither the song nor VD! I hope that you like it please let me know what you think!
I know that it's over
But I can't believe we're through
They said that time's a healer
and I'm better without you
It's gonna take time I know
But I'll get over you
Katherine stood there facing Damon, he watched Katherine as she moved gracefully around. There was no denying that she was beautiful but Damon knew now that he didn't love her any more.
Look at my life
Look at my heart
I have seen them fall apart
Now I'm ready to rise again
Look at my hopes
Look at my dreams
I'm building bridges from these scenes
Now I'm ready to rise again
Damon sat in the library at the Salvatore Manor swirling the rich amber liquid around in the crystal cut glass. Damon thinks about the last 145 years looking back at his life, not only was his love taken from him, his hopes and dreams had all been stolen by Katherine. Damon downed the contents of his glass and stood up he was ready, ready to be Damon Salvatore again, No longer the silly boy that had been in love with Katherine but a man now ready to take on the future as he realised that he now had a future. Damon grabbed his leather jacket and walked towards his future and her destiny.
Caught up in my thinking, yeah
Like a prisoner in my mind
You pose so many questions
But the truth was hard to find
I better think twice I know
That I'll get over you
Damon sat in the town square and watched the population of mystic falls go about their daily lives. She had done a good job on twisting him. But now he knew what it was like. Life without Katherine. She had made him analyse some much of life. He smiled at the sight that walked towards him smiling Dark curly hair bouncing as she walked, the sunlight kissing her face and that smile that made him go weak at the knees, she sat down next to him and passed him his venti sugar free vanilla skinny latte, hey he maybe 145 years old but it still helps to look after yourself. Besides the taste of vanilla always reminded him of her. She smiled at him and put her head on his shoulder
"Soon" she said
Damon sipped at his coffee. "Yea soon"
Much time has passed between us
Do you still think of me at all?
My world of broken promises
Now you won't catch me when I fall
Later they again are stood face to face as Damon drives a steak into Katherine, Katherine asks the question as she is slowly dying Do you still think of me at all?
Damon never answered, Katherine's last view before she died was of her former lover walking towards his new love, Damon caressed her cheek before softly leaning down to capture her lips in a soft passionate kiss, Katherine won't catch him when he falls but Bonnie Bennett always will catch him. As Katherine's eyes close for the last time she glimpses Damon and Bonnie walking away hand in hand. Damon has got over her. And is ready to rise again.
I hope you liked this. It hasn't turned out as well as I would like but never mind. Please review and let me know what you think!
