also welcome to the new readers and followers

POV Damon

We toss Elijah in the basement and lock the door just in case. For a split second the thought of Sam lying in his place with the dagger in her heart appears in front of me. I shake my head and look again to make sure it's Elijah. Of course it's Elijah who else would it be?

When did everything go so wrong that I lost track of her way of thinking, that I didn't notice that she was an original. Wait a moment, originals stay the same forever, so why did she grow from a little girl?

"knock knock"

She's leaning against the wall at the end of the basement watching me cautiously. She's listening to find a heartbeat from her brother when she finds non, she looks me straight in the eyes.

"seems like the dagger scenario worked out fine"

I give a slight nod and walk towards her. She inches back from me, fear present in her eyes. She doesn't allow it to control her every move, she pretends to not feel the fright that pushes her away from me.

"no dagger, I swear sweets"

Like the good old days, trust fills her eyes and makes her step forward back into the arms that she once trusted so much. I hear a vampire running upstairs and before I realize it, she's gone and there's sound of a struggle.

In a flash I'm in the living room watching a show where I definitely need popcorn for. Sam and Katherine getting at each other like cats fighting. I sit down in the couch with a bottle of Bourbon. Stefan and Elena come downstairs and start watching the fight.

"ladies please, as flattered as I am that you're fighting for me but this is just getting to much"

They stop and give me a glare that could put the room on fire. Sam gives Katherine one last push that sends her flying into the bookcases.

"well I guess the lot of you have some catching up to do"

With a huff she walks out of the house without a second glance. The closing of the front door seems like a signal for Katherine to start nagging and doing her usual mindgames.

"stop the chit chat for a moment and tell me what the bitch fight was about"

"a little mindgame we love to play… But hey why ask me and not the fairy, princess original"

"didn't I tell you to stay away?"

She smiles teasingly.

"and miss out the fun of playing Elena? Don't think so…"

We all decide to ignore her and go back to our things. Stefy and Elena go to school and I just start to entertain myself with trying to get the dagger back out of Elijah. Maybe barbecuing him might do the trick. But that was my plan excluding Katherine but what was I thinking, Katherine minding her own business? What kind of world would that be, apart from a better one…

An now she's claiming to be here to help? Like hell she is…

POV Sam

Okay so I was a little jealous about Katherine Petrova, I already did when we met her all that time ago when she was still very human. The way she played with Elijah his heart, somewhere I was kinda glad that Klaus wanted her dead.

But now things were different, Elena had nothing to do with this situation and she was caught in the middle of all the madness. I wish there was away, most likely there was but that's not on Elijah's to do list to tell me. Maybe for the best, the less I knew, the less I could intervene.

So in some way I found myself in the grill, watching this performance of Caroline. Good for her, I just wish Matt wouldn't change his mind once he knew what she became. So many loves crumbled because of the fact that one of the two is a vampire.

So one moment the music's playing and then all hell breaks loose, what did I miss? Suddenly everyone is fighting and magic is like a fog in the air. Doctor Martin? Wait let's back up a minute, Elijah turned to them again?

I better figure out what the hell is going on here. I follow Stefan and Elena at a distance but the scent is off. It's like…

Katherine

I stay behind a tree in the backyard and witness how Stefan drags the body of doctor Martin outside to get rid of. Somehow I feel sorry for all the persons that have fallen for Klaus. Has he become really this cruel? I wish he could change back to the loving brother of before but it's 11 centuries late for that.

I run to the Salvatore house, waiting for Damon. I can give him the information he needs if he would just ask. As I sit waiting in the living room with a glass of his beloved Bourbon in my hand, I hear another female voice. Katherine again?

Within a second I'm in the basement with Elijah. They go upstairs together to his room, I hear the rustling of clothes and the creaking of a bed. The conversation is a bit unclear, the smell of vervain in the basement makes it hard to concentrate but I've heard enough.

I lay down next to my brother, hoping he could console me in a way but all I do is make his clothing wet with my tears. Well it certainly feels like I don't belong here any longer…

I run, as fast as I can and as far away as I can, till I crumble down in the woods. My sight is blurry from the tears, all the feelings I ever felt are exploding in my chest. Why can't I ever be happy for once? Maybe he doesn't need me after all. I get up, straighten my clothes and leave.

POV Damon

Finally Katherine leaves me alone. Was an eventful night to say the least. I need a drink. As I walk down the stairs, I smell Sam in the air. When was she here?

A glass filled with bourbon is abandoned on the table. This is not good… I follow the smell in the basement into Elijah's "room". She's gone but you can see teardrops on his clothing and I'm very sure a daggered vampire can't cry…

I hear Katherine walking down the basement stairs to get blood. Why does she even stay here, she makes everything complicated, bet Sam won't like her hanging around here.

As I'm thinking the words, their truth sinks in. Of course she wouldn't like Katherine here, it would even make her very upset. Especially if she was here when we came in and… went to my room together!?

Damned Sam…

that was it for today, do tell me what you think about it ;)

till soon
