~ If you play, you play for keeps ~

Disclaimer: I do not own TVD only the twisted plot. Wouldn't mind having Damon to play with for a couple of hours or days though.


"Hello Elena." – Katherine drawled – "Did you miss me?"

"Yeah, like the plague." – Elena mumbled –"Come in… please." – she said more clearly.

Before Elena could turn around Katherine had grabbed her wrist and pulled her sleeve up.

"My, my, aren't we righteous for someone who has clearly been indulging in rough play?" – Katherine purred as she stroked the bruises and bite marks along Elena's arm.

Elena froze in embarrassment, unable to move or say anything.

"You know" – Katherine went on – "A little bit of my blood would go a long way towards healing these." – giving Elena a lusty look –"All you have to do is ask."

Before she could reply, she heard Stefan's voice from behind her.

"Leave her alone Katherine. She is not part of the deal."

Elena looked at him frowning as Katherine let go of her – "What deal?"

"Nothing for you to worry your pretty little head about, dearie." – Katherine replied walking past her and patting her head dismissively – "Where is the patient?"

"In the living room." – Elena replied following her –"Tyler should be arriving soon."

Katherine reached Damon and sat on the sofa next to his lying form. She grazed her hand over his forehand and cheek, making Elena's jealousy reach boiling point.

"Poor baby." – Katherine pouted – "The werewolf got you good…"

"No need to feign concern Katherine." – Damon replied quietly - "We know you don't care about anyone besides yourself."

"Damon…" – she replied somewhat saddened – " I may not be in love with you, but I do love you." – she gave him a soft kiss on check –"Always have, always will." – Katherine completed sincerely.

If Stefan hadn't been so pissed, Elena so angry and Damon so sick, they would have noticed how truthful she was being. As it was, Elena practically pushed her over by coming around and sitting by Damon's head and placing it on her lap. This in turn pissed Stefan even more, made Damon forget all about Katherine and made Katherine snap back to her bitchy self.

"Territorial are we?" – she smirked at Elena who gave her an evil glare.

"I thought that sweet cheeks here was your girlfriend, not his." – she said pointing at Damon and eyeing Stefan as she came around to him –"Has she finally discovered that it is much more fun to have both of you? – Katherine drawled running her finger suggestively from Stefan's collar bone to the top of his jeans.

"Shut up Katherine." – Elena huffed angrily.

"You know." – Katherine leaned over Elena's shoulder and whispered in her ear causing shivers down Elena's spine –"We could be all girly and swap bedroom secrets. I can tell you a lot of things that make my boys very very happy." – she said, grazing a nail over Elena's neck.

Elena had barely had time to register the sensation before Stefan clamped his hand on Katherine's and pulled her away.

"As I said before Katherine, she is not part of the deal." – Stefan said sternly.

"Oh, you are no fun Stef." – Katherine mock pouted.

Thankfully Elena could hear a car door slamming outside and she sighed with relief. Tyler and Caroline where finally here and they could get on with the show before they either killed each other or…. Elena was afraid to even think it…Or Katherine made good on her not so hidden suggestions and convinced the four of them to tumble into bed together. Elena flushed a deep crimson at the thought. Could her life get any weirder?

Damon seeing her cheeks blush reached out to graze his hand over them. –"Are you ok?" – he asked concerned.

Elena nodded shyly.

"Ooh she's okay all right." – Katherine chuckled evilly – "I'll give it to you Damon, you sure know how to pick your girls." – she smiled at Elena knowingly and Damon looked from girl to girl with a confused expression.

As Elena struggled to come up with a snarky reply of her own, she was saved by Caroline's bubbly voice travelling down the corridor.

"Hello peeps" – then sounding sour with a stiff nod –"Katherine."

"Caroline." – Katherine replied with equal disdain for the vampire she had sired.

"Good, we are all here. Let's get this over with, shall we?" – Stefan interrupted.

They all gathered around Damon to discuss exactly how they were going to go about it.


Not sure if there is a point in continuing with this story since we almost know where is going. the next chapter is already writing itself in my head and it is true, there are some twists in the mists ahead…so I could use some feedback from you guys.
