Scarlett Peirce
Scarlett's POV
I was in the barn alone. Katherine had left and I was wondering what she was going to do. She's my sister after all. She can't be serious, can she? I knew she was selfish but not this extreme. I snapped out of my thoughts as I heard a knock on the barns door.
"Ah!" I screeched surprised, not expecting anyone's company.
"Did I startle you, Miss Scarlett?" Damon asked coming cover to me.
"Oh, a little, Mister Damon."
"Scarlett, I want to take you somewhere, if you'll let me," Damon said while grabbing my hand and rubbing circles in the palm of my hand.
"I… alright…"
He led me out of the barn to a little open prairie like place with a blanket laid down in the middle of it.
"I thought we could sit and get to know each other better," Damon said while holding my hand and leading me over to the blanket.
"Damon… I would love to but…"
"What's wrong, Scarlett?"
"I just… don't feel like talking much."
"We don't have to. We could just sit and enjoy each others company."
"Damon… I can't," I remembered what Katherine said and I couldn't do this. I knew if Damon keeps insisting I would give in.
"Scarlett, please…" Damon pulled me to sit down and I couldn't resist anymore. I sat and looked into his eyes. I knew I must have a sad expression on my face.
Damon stroked my cheek. I moved a little bit away and lay down on the blanket. Damon lay down too and moved closer to me pulling me into his arms and I laid my head on his chest.
We lay there for a while not knowing the time of day snapping us out of our peace we heard a voice.
"Am I interrupting something?" I heard Katherine say.
"Oh, no, no Katherine," I said while moving out of Damon's arms and standing up. I could feel Damon examining the tension between us. Damon stood at my side and grabbed my hand. I tried to pull my hand away from his grasp and he held on tight so I wouldn't let go. I looked at Katherine and saw a gleam in her I saying you will pay.
"Damon, Stefan is looking for you."
"What does he need?" Damon asked kind of agitated that he had to leave.
"I don't know…. It sounded urgent," Katherine said with a fake worried expression.
"Alright," Damon then looked at me and started to walk away holding on to my hand until he absolutely had to let go.
Once Damon left all they way out of the clearing, Katherine comforted me.
"I warned you, Scarlett."
"Ka… Katherine, I didn't mean too," I stuttered.
"Scarlett, Scarlett, Scarlett, I warned you, I don't want to share the Salvatore brother's."
"Katherine…"
That's when she walked out of the clearing without another word. Tears slipped down my face of the fear that was overcoming me. She was serious and I don't know what to do but wait.
