So sorry you had to wait so long but real life has been very crazy and busy.
I Do not own Vampire Diaries or the characters.
Chapter 4
KPOV
My son wants to keep his aunt, what am I suppose to do with that. He is just like his father in that way always wants to keep things for himself. Deep down I know what I need to do but I am so scared of losing my son, hell I'm more scared Damon is going to leave me after he knows the truth.
Damon and Braden are the most important things to me in my life. My son could possibly hate me for the rest of his life when he finds out I am keeping him from knowing his aunt. Damon could hate me for so much more when he finds out everything. Looking down at Damon's hand intertwined with mine I decide I will tell him tonight I cannot keep it inside anymore I am finally ready to talk about my past.
"You okay over there you've been quiet since we've left Stefan's."
"Yea, I'm just thinking." I say.
"Yea, thinking about what?"
"How much I love you." I tell him squeezing his hand.
"I love you too babe." He tells me squeezing my hand in response to my squeezing.
"I'm ready to talk about my past."
Glancing at me he asks, "Are you sure? You don't have to tell me right now if you don't want to."
"I know but I'm ready to tell you. Just promise when I'm through that you'll still love me."
"Of course I will there isn't anything that you could say that would make me stop loving you."
"I hope that's true, I really do."
After ten minutes of driving, we're finally home. The knots in my stomach are getting worse with every second that passes.
"You know you don't have to tell me if you don't want to."
Startled from my thoughts I look up to see Damon looking at me from the front door.
"I want to tell you, I need to tell you it's just not going to be easy." I tell him, I know he's worried about me but I hate this feeling inside me. I feel like he can't love me fully unless he knows everything from my past and I fear that once he knows he will never be able to look at me the same way ever again.
"Okay, I just don't want you to feel pressured into telling me."
Oh how I love this man.
"I promise you I don't feel pressured."
"Okay then I can't wait to hear about you past."
Walking up the step's I kiss him in response to his answer.
"I'm going to change and then we can talk." I tell him as he locks the door.
"Okay babe, do you want me to bring you something to drink or something?"
Thinking about it I decide that I'm going to need a little liquid courage to get me through, "Yea, bring up the scotch."
"Okay I'll be up there soon then."
15 Minutes Later
"I don't know where to really start at so I'm just going to start at the beginning please just wait until i'm through to ask questions or make a comment."
"Okay I can promise you that."
"I was born 10 minutes before Elena and as kids we were extremely close. We were never far apart and though we're twins I looked at her as the younger sister that was born years later instead of 10 minutes later. As we got older it seemed to me anyway that our parents would play favorites, it was like I couldn't do anything but precious Elena could do any and everything."
"When we would have tests at school she would make A's or A+ and I would make B's and C's and our father I remember would ask, "Why can't you study like Elena." or "I wish you were more like your sister." Every time he would say something like that it's like it broke something in me like I wasn't good enough for him or something."
"Elena though didn't care she always stood by me. When we were 15, we decided that when we were 18 we would go and get our first tattoo together it would be something for just the two of us. When we were 16 I met a guy named James, I fell hard and fast for him. I remember the first time I brought him home to meet everyone. My parents loved him and Elena couldn't stand him after he left my father told me he was proud that I had chosen someone like James."
"It made me feel good that I could finally do something to make my father feel proud of me but it also made me angry that Elena couldn't be happy for me. I had asked her once why she didn't like him and she told me he made her feel uncomfortable which I thought was crazy cause he was the nicest guy that I had ever dated and it eventually put a lot of strain on the relationship I had with my sister but I wasn't about to break up with him."
"I started spending all my time with James and blowing off Elena for him which led to a big fight between us and we stopped talking. The only thing that brought us back together at least for a while was the death of our parents. James ended up moving in with us and Elena tried for my sake to be nice and to get to know him. One night I had to work late and he got drunk and tried to come on to her. It freaked Elena out and she wanted him gone after that but I had to know his side of the story, he said that he was sorry and thought Elena was me."
"Elena was pissed that I took his side but the way I looked at it was that I could understand with him being drunk that he thought my twin was me. James and I for our third anniversary were supposed to meet at a restaurant for dinner then get a hotel room. He ended up showing almost two hours late saying he was held up at work. I remember at the time thinking why he was freshly showered if he just got off. He purposed to me and it was the happiest night of my life."
"When I told Elena she went completely off on me saying he raped her and that he was only with me so he could get to her. I slapped her and told her I hated her that night. I never thought that my relationship with my sister could come to this. When I brought it up with him he just laughed it off and said she was crazy and that she had came on to him. I had no reason to doubt him so I took his word for it. I remember that when I told Elena that I was still going to marry him she told me she would never forgive me and that the reason he was late that night was that it was when he raped her. She told me if I didn't believe her to look for a black shirt that was ripped up and that it was because she had ripped it trying to get away from him and that he had her pair of panties that she was wearing that night."
"She moved out that night and since then we've only spoken to each other a handful of times. The day James and I were supposed to get married; I found the ripped shirt and asked him about it. He told me that I had ripped it one night when we were drunk, but as he was talking I reached in one of the pockets and pulled out a pair of panties that and an E on the tag. I knew right then that I had been so wrong all that time and I hated myself for it I still hate myself for it to this very day."
When I finally stopped, talking Damon and I both had tears in our eyes but I felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders now that I have told him.
"Do you hate me now?" I ask praying to god that my ignorance in the past hasn't screwed up one of the greatest things in my life.
"No I don't hate you but I think you need to really sit and talk with Elena. She needs to know you don't hate her."
"I know but I'm scared Damon. It's taken me years to even open to you and I haven't talked to my sister since Braden was born."
"I know but I think it's time you finally hear her side of the story and let her hear yours."
"Do you think I have a chance at having a relationship with her?"
"I don't know babe I would love to tell you yes but it's honestly up to you and her. I think that if the two of you talked and put the past in the past for good then you might have a chance."
Grabbing his hand, I bring it up to kiss and say, "Thank you for listening."
"Thank you for telling me." Leaning over he kisses me. "I love you Katherine and nothing will ever change that."
We hear Katherine's side of the story. What do you think is she a complete bitch? I love how Damon loves her no matter what her faults are. You will hear Elena's side when she tells Stefan not sure yet when that will be though. Review and let me know your thoughts on the story and until next time have fun reading :).
