Elena was sat on the Salvatore's sofa, listening to what was going on upstairs but staring intently at the figure ahead of her. Katherine was sat at the piano, using only one hand as her fingers glided across to various keys. She had no idea what she was actually doing but still, she continued to sit there and play something that wasn't very appealing to any bodies ears. Katherine looked both worried and miserable. Elena figured she was sad because it was only just dawning on her, just how weak and vulnerable she actually was now. There was nothing she could do to protect herself. However, she was worried for Stefan. Yes, they had saved him but at the moment, Katherine was worried for his mental health. They saved him physically but being under water, locked in a safe for that long must have done some damage to his mind. Even for a vampire.

Katherine stopped playing suddenly and rubbed at her wrist. She hated being human, she really did. Just messing around on the piano made her wrist ache. She wasn't going to let something silly stop her though. Her hands dragged across the black and white once again.

It was unmistakable that Katherine was tired. Elena could see it in her eyes, the way she slouched on the piano stool, she looked like she could fall asleep any second. Damon walked into the room and smiled at Elena as she did so in return. They were all worried for Stefan but Damon's smile reassured Elena that he would be okay in time.

The elder Salvatore brother walked towards Katherine, still sat at the piano. "Do you want me to teach you one day?" He asked, placing a hand on her shoulder.

She turned her head slightly and looked up at him with heavy eyes. "Is Stefan okay?"

He wondered for a moment what to say to the poor girl. At the end of the day, she was still Katherine Pierce. Maybe he should be direct and blunt about his condition? "It took him awhile to get into the bath water but I'm sure he's going to be fine. You don't need to worry about him tonight."

Her eyes were drooping slightly. "But someone needs to look after him. I can do that, Damon."

"I'm not doubting that, Katherine. I'm sure you would. I'll look after him tonight and by the looks of things, I need to look after you too." He said with a slight laugh.

"I'm fine." Katherine replied quite quickly.

"No, you're not. Your body is knackered. You need to sleep."

"Damon, I said I'm fine!" Katherine said, as she attempted to get up to do something productive, just to prove that she was awake and well. "Just because I'm human, doesn't mean I'm an invalid." Damon's point was proven as he had to catch her after she tripped over nothing.

"Are you sure about that?" He laughed. Katherine groaned as she let him guide her to the sofa. She was too weak and tired to argue. "You can help look after Stefan tomorrow." He still wasn't sure what his brother thought about Katherine being here. Damon made a bed for her on the sofa and she fell asleep pretty much as soon as her head touched the pillow. Damon smiled. I'm always right, he thought. "Keep an eye on her." He motioned to Elena, who was sat on the other sofa pretending to watch TV but in actual fact, she was just glaring at her ancestor who seemed to be getting all of Damon's attention right now.

Elena frowned. "Why me?!"

"Because family help each other, Elena. You help yours. I've got to help mine."
