Kasey had been away from her brothers for 7 months now. She missed them but she wanted to stay with Damon Salvatore, her boyfriend. Besides he was her first love that could protect her almost as good as she could protect herself. Kasey has been around some of the toughest people alive since she had been born so it was hard to find someone tough but still capable of being soft. They met at the Mystic Falls Grill one night after a hunt, well a supposed hunt. Dean, Sam and Kasey had just begun the hunt for some vampires that had gotten out from some tomb when they found out that the town already knew about it because they started hauling bodies off that had fallen to the ground. Damon had explained all of that when they met.

Dean and Sam decided to have a drink at the Mystic Grill since the night was still young and that's when Kasey saw those gorgeous blue eyes. Her hunting life had been history since then. Damon knew who she was when she told him her name. Kasey wasn't shocked because Winchester had become a hunter's hotel room name and a supernatural beings worst nightmare. Of course Kasey asked how he knew and he said that he knew about the vampires in town because he was apart of the town council and the news about vampires had been passed from generation to generation from his father and grandparents to protect the town. He said that he had known about hunters and had came across the Winchesters when he was looking for further help to protect the town but didn't need help after the town had gotten it under control.

From there Kasey told Damon about all of the different kinds of creatures that existed besides from vampires and that vampires weren't even the worst of them. She of course taught Damon all that she knew when they started to get serious because it was a must for being close to a Winchester. Everything was uphill from there even thought there was some inconveniences that was no problem for Damon and Kasey, especially as a team. Everything seemed meant to be and that's why Kasey decided to stop hunting, unless forced, and move to Mystic Falls for good and start the most normal life she possibly could with Damon.

A slit of morning sun shone in through one of Damon's windows beaming on Kasey's face. 7 months and Kasey still couldn't seem to get used to waking up in the same place. I guess 7 months was nothing compared to the 18 years she spent of the road with her brothers. It was nice, no, it was what Kasey dreamt bout for so many years. Kasey inhaled a deep breath of morning air and stretched before rolling over expecting to see Damon but instead an empty half of the bed with the covers pulled back. This happened a lot because Damon didn't like to sleep in. He rarely slept at all.

Kasey sat up and rubbed the sleep out of her crystal green eyes. When Kasey's feet hit the cold hardwood floors a shiver went up her spine. It was only fall and it was already pretty cold out and the Salvatore house was huge so it was always colder than warmer when it started to get chilly out. While walking down the giant oak steps that led to the first floor Kasey scooped her long brown hair into a ponytail and wrapped her pink hairtye around it to keep it in place to try to look has decent has possible. She could smell coffee and eggs coming from the kitchen along with the slight aroma of cinnamon. When she entered the kitchen she saw the back of Damon at the stove scraping something Kasey assumed was eggs. The coffee was already brewed with just the right amount of sugar that Kasey likes in the bottom of her mug ready for her to pour. Damon would be sweet like this sometimes. He was also very cocky and sarcastic at times but times like these made up for it.

"Well good morning, I didn't hear you come in." Damon crookedly smiled before walking over to the table to scrap eggs onto a plate and pulling a chair out for Kasey to have a seat.

"Aw thank you Damon, what do you want ?" Kasey joked while walking over to kiss Damon on the cheek but Damon pulled her tighter and kissed her on her soft light pink lips.

"Nothing I just love waking up to you in my bed." Damon said going in for another kiss before they heard a knock on the door.

"I wonder who that could be." Kasey wondered starting to walk towards the foyer. Damon gently grabbed her shoulder ushering her to stop.

"No sit down and eat, I got it."

"Thanks but you've already done so much." Kasey protested.

"Its fine really." Damon said already halfway towards the door so Kasey had no choice but to stay. Damon was shocked to see who was at the door.

Dean and Sam Winchester.

"No offense for not being ecstatic but what made you guys finally come to see me ?" Kasey asked crossing her hands to keep warm from the cold fall air.

"Oh don't act like we never called you Kase. We were busy and we had a job close to Mystic Falls so we had to come and see you." Dean said walking over to sit on the low cement fence surrounding part of the patio. "I don't like you not being with us Kasey." Dean finished.

"I know, I don't like it either but I'm doing fine on my own and its not like either of you two decided to stay and live normal so don't make me feel bad. It's a two way street." Kasey said walking over to sit by Dean on the cement fence.

"It's the apocalypse Kasey, people need us. We're still hunting for you and for all the people that you love." Dean stubbornly said. Sam hushed him with a wave of a hand.

" Would it be okay if we stayed a while then ?" Sam asked already knowing the answer. Kasey lightly tapped her leg up and down as she pondered this.

"Really ?" Kasey asked smiling.

"Yeah we miss you and I think this thing with Damon is pretty serious and we should get to know him." Dean said, his tired face forcing a smile. Kasey smiled and threw an arm around Dean extending the other out ushering Sam to come join in. Kasey missed this desperately but Kasey's smile soon turned to curiosity.

"Wait, you two must be up to something else than just visiting me for a couple of weeks."

"Kasey, its been 7 months and we've never been apart that long. We were near by so why not stay for a while, you can't blame us." Sam said reassuringly. Sam was always very convincing and always the soft one. Kasey knew that they missed her as much as she missed them but stopping by for two whole weeks after a long 7 months was a little suspicious. Dean was a workaholic. Of all people she would know this.

"Okay I believe you." Kasey smiled, uncertainty still in the back of her head.

"First, you guys have to meet my friends and of course Damon's brother, Stefan, and his girlfriend Elena." Kasey smiled with excitement. leading them back into the house. Damon was sitting on the couch taking a bite out of a cinnamon roll. That explains the cinnamon aroma Kasey smelled earlier.

"I'll go get ready. First we'll go out and I'll show you the town and even the college that I'm thinking of going to and tonight there's a party and all of my friends will be there so we'll go to that. You guys can talk with Damon until I'm ready." Kasey announced running up the steps.

"Uh... Kase ?" Dean hesitated. Kasey stopped mid-way up the steps and turned towards her brothers to see what Dean needed.

"what's up ?"

"I've been driving all night so is it okay if I stay back for today and rest a little, maybe take a shower and freshen up a bit ?" Dean wanted to stay back for a reason. He was truly exhausted but he could rest better knowing any secrets that might be there. He needed to check some things out. Kasey shrugged and turned to run back up the steps.

"Whatev you're staying for a while anyway right ?" Kasey yelled down rhetorically. Dean was excited to see Kasey and see for himself that everything was okay and Damon was who he said he was. Sure he wanted to see Kasey but he needed to know for sure that he was leaving his baby sister with a guy that would take care of her when he couldn't.

"You can go to my room upstairs, it's the last door on the right." Kasey told Dean putting some chap stick on her lips when she returned down stairs ready to leave. Dean nodded and took a sip of his whiskey Damon had offered him.

"Stefan and I have some things to do but you can take Elena and your brother and have a good time without us." Damon said leaning in to kiss Kasey on the lips. Kasey slipped her hands around Damon's waist after a quick kiss. Damon looked up from Kasey's right shoulder and smiled deviously at Dean before burying his face in Kasey's hair and sliding his hand closer to Kasey's butt. Damon felt threatened with by their presence and was a little suspicious. Dean cleared his throat and slammed his glass on the bookcase shelf.

"Dean, careful." Kasey said lightly, scolded him unaware of what was happening before turning back to Damon. Dean left to the foyer with Sam, Elena and Stefan. He couldn't stay in there with the view of someone groping his baby sister.

"Is it Katherine ?" Kasey said so low only Damon and possibly Stefan could hear. Damon pulled away from Kasey and kissed her forehead then started walking towards the door with Stefan right behind him. Kasey knew that meant yes.

"I'll see you tonight Kase." Damon smiled. Stefan quickly kissed Elena and told her to have fun before slipping out the door behind Damon. Dean watched as Damon and Stefan suspiciously slipped out and knew something was up. If there was he would find out tonight as soon as everyone left and he almost knew he would find something.

"Okay Elena lets get out and get our par-tay on." Kasey smiled walking toward the door backwards signaling Elena to start following.

"I'm with Ya." Elena said smiling following Kasey out the door.

"Get some rest Dean and Sam come on !" Kasey shouted towards the front door, waiting by the car for Sam to come and join them. Sam impatiently stayed to secretly say something to Dean before joining Kasey and Elena.

"Be careful, remember we don't know anything about these guys or when they'll even be back so work fast." Sam told Dean before running out the door to catch up. Dean just nodded. Did Sam think he was stupid ? Of course he knew to work fast, he just didn't know where to start. This house is huge.

Dean decided to search in places that Kasey wouldn't have been in as much like the basement. He figured if Damon had a secret he would make sure that nothing was in the bedroom where Kasey slept every night. The basement door was near the kitchen in the hallway. At least Dean thought so. The door was locked and Dean didn't have time to find the key so without hesitation Dean stepped back and kicked the door with all his strength. The door forced open to a set of stairs that led downward. Yep, this was the basement. Dean carefully made his way down the steps, a couple squeaking on the way. Dean felt around on the wall at the bottom of the steps trying to find a light switch doing the best he could with the light shining in from the open basement door. When Dean finally found one he flicked the switch upward. The lights that came on were dull but enough to where he could see most everything down the hall. The first door he came to was a full metal door that locked on the outside.

"Well that's not suspicious." Dean mumbled to himself. The door was open so Dean welcomed himself in. He saw a chair with shackles on the floor and some kind of plant in the back of the room. Dean noticed right away what is was. Vervain. Vervain is used to weaken vampires by getting them to consume it or consume it yourself to keep from being eaten and killed. You can also keep it on you to keep vampires from controlling you. Vervain is like poison to them only they wont die just slow them down enough to kill them. Dean knew Damon was apart of the town council to help protect against vampires so this wasn't enough to prove something wasn't right. But that door was locked for a reason. The end of the hall opened to the rest of basement. Dean didn't see anything suspicious. He saw what most all basement had in it. A bunch of old junk that no body really needed or even knew was down there. Dean was about to go look somewhere else when he saw a freezer in his side view. Dean slowly approached it and lifted the top, light shining on his face and filling the spacer around the freezer with a dim light. What Dean saw was shocking.

"My god." Dean gasped.

Dean waited in the living room until Damon and Stefan or Kasey, Sam, and Elena came home. He had already gotten his stakes out of the Impala ready to use. A few hours passed until Dean finally heard the door click open and the face of Damon Salvatore enter the living room. Stefan was no where in site.

"Where's Stefan ?" Dean asked as Damon walked over to the table where all the alcohol was.

"He and Elena headed to Elena's house to end the night. Kasey and Sam will be here soon. Last time I talked they were on their way." Damon said pouring himself a glass of scotch.

"That's means we don't have too much time then now do we ?" Dean rhetorically asked. Before Damon could respond he felt a pang of pain in his lower back. Then another in his right shoulder. Damon fell to the floor wincing in pain.

"Wooden bullets." Dean said walking towards Damon with a syringe full of vervain. Dean swiftly stuck Damon with the syringe and pushed the purple liquid into Damon's body. Damon immediately started to weaken and fell to the ground breathing heavily.

"Well I'll be damned, you are a vampire. What the hell are you doing with Kasey !" Dean demanded but before Damon could answer the door clicked open again and Kasey and Sam's voices flooded the house.

"Damon !" Kasey gasped at the sight of her boyfriend on the floor weakened and in pain. Kasey ran to be by his side but Sam stopped her not knowing what was happening. "What did you do to him !" Kasey cried struggling to get to him.

"He's a vampire Kasey." Dean announced sure of himself. Kasey didn't know what to say or think she just felt it was her duty to defend her boyfriend.

"You're crazy Dean I've been with him for 7 months now and I sure as hell have never seen him bite anyone's neck."

"Have you ever been in the basement ?" Dean asked.

"No, no one ever goes down there, there's never been any need." Kasey argued back.

"There's a freezer full of packs of blood and vervain inside of a locked cellar. I injected him with vervain and look at what it did to him Kasey, there's your proof !" Dean yelled. He didn't know how else to get his proof across. Kasey's eyes filled with tears.

"Damon, is this true ?" Kasey confronted. Damon slowly propped his self up on one shoulder. He took deep breaths as he prepared to explain.

"Yes." Damon answered. There was no hiding it now. A warm tear escaped Kasey's left eye and soon another from her right. She was speechless. Their whole relationship had been a lie. Every kiss and every second spent together. The biggest question is, is how did she never realize the truth ?

"I don't understand Damon. Why ?" Kasey whispered her face hardening. Damon swallowed taking deep breaths.

"I was going to use you as bait to get to Katherine. Yes, Katherine is a vampire not just some ex threatening Elena. I figured you were a hunter so it was only logical to use you to help get rid of people that could possibly cause trouble in the future. Anyway, I had no idea that their was more out there other than vampires and ware wolves and when you told me I felt you were smarter almost more powerful than I was and I loved that. I started to really fall for you and I knew I couldn't tell you the truth because you kill things like me. I figured you wouldn't be in danger because you're one of the best hunters and would be safe if anyone looking for me decided to hurt you." Damon explained falling to the floor exhausted. "

Kasey tried to let this all sink in before saying anything else. She squatted down and rested her head in her hands taking deep breaths. How could she have not seen this ?

"Does Elena know or-or-or Bonnie or Caroline ?" Kasey stuttered. "Am I the only one that doesn't know ?" Kasey seethed, her anger rising. Damon rolled his eyes preparing to explain once again.

"They know. Oh and Caroline just turned into a vampire like a week ago because of Katherine." Damon nervously and weakly laughed trying to calm the mood. By the way, he was alone in a room with 3 Winchesters.

"God, you have to be kidding me. I kill things like you !" Kasey yelled tears flooding her eyes. She felt pure anger fill her tiny body and she wanted to stake Damon right then and there.

(Will Damon get out of this one and if so what will happen to Damon and Kasey and Kasey and her brothers ?)
