Chapter Four:
"Dean, why did you drive all the way to Mystic Falls? I mean, I get why Sam would, but why you?" Ruby broke the silence in the motel room as she crawled onto the bed after taking her leather jacket off and laid down beside the elder Winchester brother.
He shifted his body a little moving a bit to give her some more room and sighed softly, "Well, you know, Ruby, you're practically like a big sister to that kid and I wasn't about to let him drive to a town that neither of us had ever been to in the Impala."
"Right. So that's why you got into that macho pissing contest with Damon that led to him almost ripping your throat out?" She looked at him skeptically and brushed her blonde locks away from her face.
Dean shrugged his shoulders and looked at her, "Hey, for the record, he started it. I was just defending myself."
"Oh really? Since when is staying still synonoymous with defending yourself?" Ruby asked slightly amused as she moved straddling his hips as her hands rested on his black t shirt clad chest gently.
He rubbed the back of his neck nervously before bringing his hands down to rest on her hips softly, "Well I could of ganked his pasty ass, but I knew you would of been upset if I did that so I tried to fight him off instead. I heard you coming, well, actually I heard Sam. What? You know how clunky his shoes can be. Anyway, I heard him and I stopped trying to fight Damon off because I figured Sam would just knock him away from me. Damon, he tried compelling me, you know."
"Alright well that makes sense I suppose. Wait, how do you know that he didn't compel you?" She inquired staring down at the handsome hunter beneath her touched that he hadn't killed her friend simply because he knew it would upset her.
Dean shrugged his shoulders again and chuckled softly, "When you went upstairs to get your bag, Stefan mentioned that it was a good thing that he had spiked my drinks with vervain. You should of seen the disappointed look on Damon's face."
"Really? Hmm, well remind me to thank Ol' Steffy then." Ruby remarked with a soft smile as she leaned down pressing her lips against his full lips roughly.
His large rough hands slid underneath her dark green tank top brushing against her creamy porcelain skin as he pushed the fabric upward. Ruby broke the the kiss and lifted her arms up allowing him to push the flimsy piece of fabric up over her head. He tossed it aside not caring where it landed and stared up into her bright blue eyes as her fingers played with the hem of his t shirt teasingly. It wasn't the first time that they had found themselves in this position and they knew full well that it wouldn't be the last time either. He had been raised to hunt and kill demons. She was a demon, but somehow they still managed to come together as one in the back of the Impala one night while Sam slept soundly in the motel room. It was only supposed to be that one night of sweet sin and unadulterated passion between them. Of course they never did account for the fact that it was that one night in question that led them to be drawn to each other no matter how hard they tried to fight it.
Somehow Sam always knew when to give them their space for which they were both grateful for since neither of them wanted to scar the poor guy for life. Their skin glistened with sweat and their chests heaved as they tried to catch their breaths. As she lay contently in his arms, Ruby couldn't help comparing Dean and Damon in her mind which made her feel guilty considering what she had just done with Dean. Granted, both men were amazing lovers, but somehow she always ended up being held by Dean as they basked in the afterglow of their lovemaking. She surprisingly loved to cuddle after getting laid although she'd never admit that out loud. Damon never cuddled with her though, but Dean always did.
Clearing those thoughts from her mind, Ruby snuggled into Dean's side and drifted off to sleep. Back in Mystic Falls, however, Stefan watched as Damon sat in the study broodingly staring at the fire that was crackling in the fireplace. He had been broody since Ruby had left and Stefan was worried as he knew how bad Damon could get when he was upset. The younger Salvatore sat down in the chair opposite of Damon and sighed softly.
"Just give her some time to cool off, Damon. I'm sure she'll talk to you soon." Stefan assured his older brother who sat stoically with a glass of scotch in his hand.
Damon took a swig of his scotch and scoffed, "I hate witches."
"Come on, Damon, you don't mean that. You and I both know that you don't hate Ruby." He remarked and shook his head.
The blue eyed older vampire shrugged his shoulders and downed the rest of his scotch, "Alright, maybe I don't hate her, but come on! She just doesn't get it when it comes to Katherine. Yeah, I know how bad Katherine is, but I still loved her. Ruby has never been in love. What does she know about it?"
"More than you'd think, brother. I, uh, overheard her telling Sam that she loved someone. She didn't say who exactly. Just that it was a him." He remarked and smiled slightly as Damon appeared to perk up a bit.
His pale cerulean eyes sparkled as the reflection of the flames danced within them, "Interesting. Well we all know she meant me, Stefan."
"Right. Believe what you want to believe, Damon. What the.." Stefan rolled his eyes as the ever present smirk returned to Damon's face and then glanced around cautiously as the lights began to flicker.
The smirk faded as his eyes widened making him look as if he were processing his thoughts, "Katherine?"
Standing in the entryway behind them, an exact replica of Elena stood with an eerie smirk upon her face, "Well hello boys. Did you miss me?"
As he shut the motel room door behind him, Sam cracked a smile and shook his head as he spotted his brother asleep with a sleeping Ruby beside him. The tall shaggy haired brunette locked the door grateful that they were at least mostly covered up and made his way into the bathroom. He walked back out a few minutes later in a grey muscle tank top and plaid pajama pants. Sliding into his bed, He got comfortable and yawned softly as he nestled his head into his pillow after attaching his cell phone to its charger. Sam glanced across from him and noticed the expression on Ruby's face. Grabbing his phone, He snapped a picture of Ruby and smiled to himself as he set his phone back down. Hey, it wasn't every day that he saw her looking so peaceful with a content smile upon her face. He sighed slightly and shut his eyes falling asleep moments later. Back at the boarding house, things were rather silent aside from the sound of the fire crackling as the brunette stood by herself in the study.
Her chocolate brown eyes glowed eerily as the reflection of the flames danced within them as she tossed a photograph into the fire, "Poor pathetic little Ruby. When will you learn that you are just no match for Katherine Pierce? You are such a weakling that it is pathetic to even consider you as being a witch. Oh, that's right, they call you a demon now. Kind of fitting, is it not? Those boys are mine and there is nothing you can do to change that. Time is running out for you and you don't even know it yet. How fun! See you soon, Ruby. Tick Tock, Tick Tock, Tick Tock."
As she cackled evilly, the brunette stared down into the flames as the fire took its toll on the photograph. It was of Stefan, Ruby, and Damon in that order. She smirked happily as the images of the Salvatore brothers were burnt to a crisp and her eyes widened in delight as the flames encircled the image of Ruby. She cackled even more as the image of Ruby was burnt beyond recognition. All that was left of the photograph by then was a pile of black ash. An eerie smirk appeared on her face just then as she doused the flames putting the fire out completely. Turning on her heel, She walked upstairs to Stefan's room and smiled at the sight of the boys all tied up.
"Untie us, Katherine." Stefan growled knowing just how dangerous the brunette could be.
She laughed slightly and shook her head, "I'm afraid I can't do that just yet, Stefan. What's the matter? Don't like the vervain infused rope? If you think that's bad, wait until you see what I do to Ruby. She'll never know what hit her. I'm going to do to her what no other person has ever done before."
"Oh really? And what might that be?" He questioned fully aware of how Damon was silently glaring at Katherine.
The brunette smirked confidently at the vampire brothers and spoke up in an eerily lethal tone, "I am going to break her. Just you wait and see."
