I see the look of complete hurt and betrayal on Damon's face, before he walks past me, acting like I wasn't even there. I turn back to look at Katherine with complete hate in my eyes.
"Don't look at me like that. You know that if you were in my position, you would have done the same thing" she is so full of herself
"Don't even think to presume what I would or wouldn't do" I stare her down, not that it effects her or anything. She walks up to me. She looks me over for a second before a smile appears on her face, like she just found out some deep dark secret
"I guess we'll never know. You wont be put in a situation where you have to choose. So I guess that's good for you, because then you wouldn't have to face what you really feel" I look at her confused, what is she talking about
"Don't pretend like you don't know what I mean. You and I both know that you don't just love Stefan. There is someone else in your heart to" she says as she puts a finger over where my heart is
"You're just afraid to admit it" I don't say anything, I just stare at her, and then her head tilts a little to the side, like something caught her attention.
"Just stay away from Damon. I mean it, leave him alone" she smiles at me
"I can do whatever I want…Hi Stefan" I turn around to see him walk into the room
"What's going on here" he looks between the both of us curiously
"Nothing to worry your pretty little head over" Katherine says as she walks past him and out the door
Stefan walks up to me and gives me a hug "Are you ok, what was all that about" we pull apart, but only enough to look at each other
"You should have heard what she said, she was so mean to Damon" his mouth goes into a line, like he didn't like the fact that I care about what she did to Damon.
"It was her fault that he was going to die with the whole Elijah thing. She made a deal with my stupid father" I spit the last word out like it was acid and I look back at Stefan…he just stares at me for a moment, not saying anything
"so you decided to tell her off" I pull all the way out of his hold now
"I wouldn't call what I did, telling her off, I just told her see needed to leave him alone" he steps back and starts to pace a little bit before he stops and looks back at me
"why?" what, I look at him confused
"what do you mean why. She's messing with Damon's head. She's hurting him, don't you care about that" he shakes his head
"It has nothing to do with me caring, but what does any of this have to do with you"
"He's my friend, I'm not going to just stand back and let him get hurt, I mean someone's got to stick up for him" I said with more harshness to my voice then I intended
"Why…" my jaw drops, completely surprised that he would even ask that. I can tell that he wanted to change his answer when he saw my face.
"I mean, why does it have to be you" I glare at him, unbelieving that he would act this way, even towards Damon
"because, obviously no one else will" I continue to glare at him. I hear him sign and he comes up to me and puts his hand on my arm
"Listen. I know that you want to help Damon, but he can take care of him self…he doesn't need us" that is the last straw. Stefan has made me mad before, but he has never disappointed me like this.
"I can't believe you Stefan. I get that he has hurt you in the past…" he nods his head in agreement
"but you've hurt him to. He is your brother, and whether you hate him or not, he's still your family…and he's all you've got left in that department" I say not even waiting for an answer as I grab my stuff and walk out the door. I have to find Damon and make sure he is ok.
