I could hear Elena on the phone, when she came back to the kitchen Damon was helping me stand up, "Can someone please tell me what's going on here?" Elena asked in a shrill voice.
"Kathrine. Kathrine happened." Damon answered.
"She was here?"
"I need to go check on Jeremy." I said pulling away from Damon my knees still weak he held on tighter.
"I'll do it, you need to get changed before the paramedics get here or they'll try to take you too." Elena took off up the stairs.
Damon followed me up the stairs sitting on the side of the tub watching me like a hawk, waiting for me to break. Seeing myself in the mirror, i could see why, I was covered in my own blood. I took a deep breath pushing my palms into the counter before I ripped off my shirt, turned on the sink and grabbed a towel from the drawer. "Can you go grab me a new shirt, preferably one that's way too big for me." Damon didn't move he was still staring at me, "Damon! I'm not going to fall apart in the time it takes you to walk to my dresser and back." Almost like he snapped out of a trance he got up and walked out of the bathroom.
While he was gone I scrubbed every bit of blood I could see off of myself, he came back with one of the many t-shirts I'd stolen from him and a pair of leggings, setting them on the counter before wrapping his arms around me tightly, "I'm going to kill her for this. I'm so sorry, I made her come here."
I pulled back putting my hands on Damon's face making him look at me, "She came here to kill John, this is not your fault. Thanks to that bracelet I'm fine."
"Alexis that bracelet wasn't made to heal you, it was only enough to turn you."
"Well then thankfully you were here." We broke away so I could get changed, I had just walked back into my bedroom when Elena bust through the door, "Jeremy tried to kill himself."
"What?" I tried to rush out of the room, Elena stopped me, "He's fine, he was trying to turn, Anna gave him some of her blood he took a bunch of pills. Stefan is with him now and the paramedics are taking John." She said. I brushed past her and walked into Jeremy's room, smacking him on the back of the head, "Have you lost your ever loving mind."
"Ow what the hell, I already got the speech from Elena and Stefan I don't need one from you too."
Stefan grabbed my arm and pulled me out of the room shutting the door, "Alex- ahh!" His hands went to his head his knees hitting the ground.
"You know Stefan you have a really bad habit of trying to tell me what to do, I'm getting really sick of it."
"Alexis!" Elena shouted, breaking my concentration, I looked up her and Damon were standing in the doorway of my room. Stefan stood up and she walked over to him while I walked downstairs. The cops and the paramedics had done what they needed to do so I started cleaning up the mess, I was in the middle of cleaning blood off the floor when it happened I finally broke. I sat back against the counter, I could hear my heart beating in my head and I couldn't catch my breath, two glasses on the counter shattered.
Damon grabbed my face, I don't know when he got there, "Hey, open your eyes, look at me."
"I need to get out of here." I whimpered, Damon scooped me up and vamped us outside sitting me on the porch swing, it took a couple minutes for me to get my breathing back under control. "So much for me being a bad ass and not falling apart." I ran my hands through my hair.
"It's been a rough night, honestly I thought you took what happened a little too well."
Elena walked outside, "I'm heading to the hospital to check on Caroline."
"What's wrong with her?" I asked.
"She was in a car accident."
"Liz called me earlier, said she needed to talk to me." Damon looked over at me, I was still hugging my knees.
"You go see what Liz wants, I'll stay here and clean up and keep an eye on Jeremy." I said.
"Stefan is already taking care of it." Elena said softly.
"Besides after that I'm not letting you out of my sight." I wasn't sure if Damon was talking about my breakdown or Kathrine but I didn't push it.
"I'll grab my bag then, since I don't really have a choice." Damon true to his word followed me upstairs, once we got to my room I closed the door, "Do we have a minute before we need to go?" I asked
"I don't see why not." Damon replied sitting on the bed.
I dug through my bag and pulled out a blue bottle, "So last night I was going through my book trying to figure out exactly what Bonnie did, let just say I'm glad she used the wrong blood cause had it been mine and she failed we wouldn't be having this conversation right now. Anyway I came across this." I put the bottle on his hand.
"What is this exactly."
I sighed, "If you drink that I will no longer be immune to your compulsion, mind tricks, ect without vervain."
"I've gotten in your head before."
"And you saw..?"
Damon thought for moment, "Nothing but I was just looking for childhood memories."
"Look for something else, go ahead try to read this very open, very empty book."
"I'll take your word for it."
"I'm giving this too you because I trust you won't take advantage of it and I want your help. The spell Bonnie used last night if it went wrong I could have lost everything all over again or worse it could have killed me. That memory I got back that was the first of many trying to break through a wall in my head, there's a small crack but the stronger I get the more it's going to happen, it was immobilizing. That spell is the only thing known to bring them back other then vamperisim and that doesn't particularly fun either. I want you to help me find that wall and tear it down."
"Turning will bring them back?"
"That's what you got from all that?" I rolled my eyes, "Drink it or don't, it's your choice but if you don't drink it keep it somewhere safe because it's witch specific and it's not something I don't need some rando vampire getting their hands on."
"You know, this could be very bad for you." He smirked.
"I still have plenty of vervain, don't make me put it in a spray bottle." I laughed.
Damon took the cap off the bottle and tilted it back, "Tastes like you."
"Well it wouldn't be witch specific if it didn't have my blood in it. Well let's see if it worked, nothing gross or weird." I said standing up.
"Well that narrows down the list." He smiled and looked into my eyes, "Something simple, stand on one foot."
"Really, that's so du-" I felt like someone else actually lifted my foot for me, "Well it works, can I put it down now?"
"Yes." He laughed.
"I'm serious don't abuse this." I said pointing my finger at him.
"Yes ma'am. Come on let's go, I promise in and out."
When we got to the hospital I stopped at the doors, Damon started to walk in, "You know you don't have to be invited in." He laughed.
"I know, I just really hate this place. Are you sure I can't just wait in the car?"
Damon linked his arm with mine, "Positive." He lead me through the doors, he found Liz quickly she was a mess understandably so, Caroline was in surgery. I stayed a few feet away when they were done talking Damon walked over, "So Tyler was driving, the device took out the mayor, I wonder if it got Tyler too?"
"That would make 3 non vampires that ended up being taken down."
"Who's the third?"
"Me, I heard this awful screeching noise, lucky for me and Stefan Alaric showed up. We hid until it stopped."
"But why?"
"I don't know when it comes to Emily Bennett's work I just assume I'm on the wrong side of it." I shrugged.
We'd been walking down a hallway Damon stopped in a doorway hearing Elena, "Can't you do something Bonnie a spell maybe?"
"She doesn't know how, do you?" Damon said walking towards them, I followed behind.
"No I don't." Bonnie replied.
"Alexis what about you?" Elena asked.
"I don't know how either, plus I don't really care what happens to Caroline." I shook my head.
"It took Emily years to learn that spell." Damon sneered.
"I know the spell to take down a vampire, that one was easy." Bonnie said giving him a look.
"I can give her some of my blood."
"No, absolutely not." Elena protested.
"Just a little, she will be safe here and it will be out of her system in twenty four hours."
"Do it" Bonnie interjected. "We can't let Caroline die."
"I do this, me and you we have a truce." Damon asked.
"Considering this is all your fault, no we don't but you'll do it anyway."
"All his fault?" I said shocked, "This is your fault, you could have prevented all of this." I turned towards Damon, "You go do what you need to do, I'm going to the car."
It wasn't long before Damon walked out he got in the car and said, "We're going to have a little pow wow about Kathrine back at your house."
"Oh my god will this night never end? Ugggg" I put my face in my hands. "All I want to do is take a shower and go to sleep."
"If I swear this is the last thing we need to do tonight, can I get you on board?"
"Fine but I'm going to bitch about it."
We pulled up just after Elena walking in together, Stefan was on the floor, "What happened?" Elena asked rushing to him.
"Kathrine came back." He said getting up.
We moved into the kitchen I laid on one of the bench seats, Damon was the first to speak, "Did she say what she wanted?"
"No she was too busy pretending to be Elena, when I realized it wasn't her we fought and then you guys showed up." Stefan replied.
"Well she wasn't very forthcoming with with her plans while she was using me to taunt Damon either." I said.
Elena walked in, "I told Jeremy, we can't keep this stuff from him anymore." She sat down in the chair by my feet, "I thought everything would get better once the tomb vampires were gone. How did she even get in?"
I raised my hand, "Yeah that would be my fault, I thought she was you."
"Why would you invite me into my own house?"
"I believe my words were ""Why don't you go in and fuck right off" apparently that's all it takes."
"Well what do we do now?"
"Move." Damon quipped.
"Helpful answers only." I sighed.
"I'm not kidding, if Kathrine wants you dead then she's going to find a way to make that happen, if you really think you're going to figure out what she's up to before she wants you to know you're sorely mistaken."
I sat up my shoes slapping on the floor, "Idolize much?" Damon rolled his eyes.
"What about John? Maybe he knows something." Elena spoke up looking at Stefan, "We can go talk to him tomorrow."
"O.K. now that we have a plan of action I'm excusing myself from this little meeting." I got up walking out of the kitchen, Damon caught my arm before I got to the stairs.
"Hey, are you okay?"
"No, almost getting killed really takes it out of a person."
"So snark is a symptom of exhaustion then?"
"It is for me, I'm sorry you just sounded a little too proud of Kathrine in there."
"I'm not proud, I'm concerned and I don't think you and Elena get how bad this situation can get."
"So what's the plan then?"
"The gruesome twosome in there are going to talk to John tomorrow and me and you Well we're going to ignore the bitch. If she thinks she's being ignored it'll lure her out." Damon said it as if t was the most obvious thing in the world.
"And then what?"
"We kill her."
Damon managed to convince me to come back to the boarding house with him under the pretense that his giant bathtub was mine to use all night if I wanted. Damon was downstairs attempting to make me something to eat. I had my eyes closed enjoying the too hot bath water when suddenly I wasn't.
"Mom!" I screamed running down the stairs, "mom." I was in the kitchen now.
A woman I'd seen in so many photos was standing at the sink, "What hunny?"
"Elena killed my teddy." I handed her the body of a teddy bear followed by its head, she took the bear from me and held my tiny hands, "It's ok baby we can fix it." She hugged me.
I opened my eyes I'd sink under the water, I sat straight up gasping for air, my nose was bleeding I could taste it as I tried to catch my breath. I rinsed my face off with the bath water and got out, wrapping the towel around me I looked at myself in the mirror I looked as tired as I felt.
Damon was putting a grilled cheese on a plate for me when I walked in, he looked surprised, "I figured I'd have to serve this to you in the tub." He started to laugh but seeing my face stopped, "What happened?"
"I don't know, one second I was in the tub the next I was running to my mom cause Elena ripped the head off my teddy bear. I woke up under the water, it's so weird it was different from last time I had no warning. God I hate this." Damon slid the plate towards me, I hadn't realized how hungry I was until I took a bite. Once I'd finished my sandwich Damon scooped me up and took me to bed I was asleep before my head hit the pillow.
I could hear the shower running but I didn't open my eyes, the sunlight from the crack in the curtains felt warm on my face. I rolled over and took a deep breath I could smell Damon on the pillow I'd almost fallen back to sleep when I heard the shower stop. Knowing Damon would be in here any minute to aggravate me until I got up I took the initiative and got out of bed. I stood at the door to the bathroom enjoying the site of Damon in just a towel.
"You waiting for a show?" He asked.
"Just enjoying the view." I smiled and walked over picking up my toothbrush.
"I have to go to the Lockwood's later today."
I spit toothpaste into the sink, "I do too, they are doing a thing for the Mayor, Jenna texted me last night after we left the hospital. Mind if I catch a ride with you? My truck is at my house and I'm a little scared to drive seeing as I can't even take a bath without supervision." I rolled my eyes at the last part.
He stood behind me, "I think I can handle that." He moved the hair off my neck, leaning his head down kissing just below my ear then further down my neck stopping to suck on my pulse point.
"Mmm." I shivered, "Trying to start something?"
"Try hell, I am starting something." He laughed.
I turned around Damon lifted me up setting me on the counter, burying his face in my neck kissing, biting, and sucking at the small amount of exposed skin. He broke away just long enough to pull my shirt off and went back to his task, his hands squeezed the tops of my thighs as his mouth moved lower. I gripped the counter, his tongue moved over the the top of my breast then moved to the other. A small moan escaped my lips as he sucked a nipple into his mouth flicking it with his tongue, he kissed his way back to the first one repeating the process. His hands moved up my sides and he kissed his way back up my neck, his mouth meeting mine as his hands groped my breasts rubbing his thumb over my nipples.
I moaned into his mouth, pressing my palms against his chest I pushed him back just far enough for me to slide off the counter. I sucked his bottom lip into my mouth nibbling it, my hands running down his chest. I barley touched the towel and it fell to the floor, I kissed down his neck, my hands lightly grazing his erection, he groaned when I wrapped my hand around it. I moved my hand slowly kissing down his chest, kneeling down on the floor I rubbed his balls as my tongue ran up the underside of his dick. I took him as far into my mouth as I could, his head fell back and his hands tangled themselves in my hair. I moved slowly taking him in and out circling the tip with my tongue, Damon's hands clenched tighter in my hair making me moan around his dick. I stared moving faster using my hand to give attention to what my mouth couldn't, Damon groaned out again.
Damon used his hold on my hair to pull me off of him, I stood up he hooked his fingers into my leggings dragging them down my legs, I kicked them off. He lifted me back onto the counter, a huge grin on his face one hand reached behind my neck pulling my face to his crashing our lips together. His other hand was between my legs teasing my clit through my panties, he bit my lip drawing blood. He sucked on it as the veins appeared under his eyes, he snapped the fabric of my panties throwing them behind him. His fingers ran up and down my wet slit, I bucked my hips and felt Damon smile into our kiss. He pressed his thumb onto the bundle of nerves while two fingers curled inside me hitting my G-spot on each brush in and out, his other hand dragged down my back leaving bleeding scratches. I threw my head back the contradiction of the pain and pleasure throwing me over the edge, my hands gripped at his shoulders leaving my own marks.
Damon pulled out his fingers and plowed into me, his hands pulled my hips towards him bottoming out with every stroke. His hand slid in between us rubbing circles on my swollen clit, my legs tensed up, "Oh fuck, Damon." I breathed out between pants. He removed his hand wrapping it around my back pulling us chest to chest, my ass just barley still on the counter still hitting my cervix as he fucked me "Not yet." He whispered in my ear, he slowed down pulling almost all the way out before slamming back in. The heat in my core threatened to explode, "Damon." I pleaded. That was all he needed he bit into his wrist shoving it in front of me before biting into my shoulder, I moaned loudly around his wrist as my eyes rolled back in my head, my orgasm rocked through my whole body. Damon's dicked tensed as he groaned out lapping at the last of the blood from my already healed neck.
"Good morning," He said kissing me on the forehead, stepping back and sliding out of me.
"Hell of a morning." I laughed sliding off of the counter, I picked up the pair of what used to be panties, "Another one bites the dust." I laughed before walking out to get dressed.
Dressed and downstairs Damon was pouring coffee when my phone started to ring, "It's Elena." I answered and put it on speaker, "What?"
"Hey, good morning to you too, so we went to see John."
"Does he know why the wicked bitch of the west is here?"
"No, he said she didn't trust him, go figure."
"So nothing helpful then?"
"No I guess not, but I really think we need to ta-"
"O.K. bye now." I hit the end button hanging up on her, I looked at Damon who looked like he was going to say something, "Don't start." I said pointing at him.
"You can't avoid her forever." He said shrugging.
"I can, don't doubt me. You've been making Stefan's life miserable for years, I can avoid Elena for a couple days at least until I don't want to break her face."
"How does one break a face?" He said with a laugh.
"You don't want to know." I kissed him, "We should go."
When we got to the Lockwood's damon went inside I stopped to talk to Tyler, "Hey sorry about your dad." I shook his hand slipping two joints to him, holding a finger to my lips, "shh" I said.
"Thanks." He smiled.
Damon stopped me when I walked inside, "What was that about? Dealing now?"
"Absolutely not way too much work. He just lost his dad, it's not going to make it any better but it's better then all the sympathy casseroles he's going to get."
We walked into the dinning room, I stole a couple of strawberries off of one of the plates.
"Did you know Tyler was affected my the Gilbert device?" Bonnie's hushed voice made me turn around.
"Yeah did that math got 22=4" I replied.
"Do you know why?"
"No, but I'd love to know why a non vampire was taken with the rest of us. How's Caroline by the way?" Damon interjected.
"She's much better." Bonnie said.
"You're welcome."
"No, you're welcome."
"For what?" He scoffed.
"For getting to live to see another day." Bonnie narrowed her eyes at him.
"No good deed goes unpunished for you does it."
"I'm sorry, but it doesn't make up for all the bad you've done." She replied, Damon's hand went to his head.
I snapped my fingers temporarily breaking the connection she had with Damon, "That's enough." I said sternly, "Leave him alone." I said getting in her face. Bonnie looked like she was thinking about her options she must have decided this wasn't the place because she turned and left. I turned to Damon, "Are you ok?"
"Yeah, nasty little bitch isn't she?"
"You mean witch?"
"I said what I said." He shrugged his shoulders, "I have to go talk with Liz and Carol, you going to be ok for a few minutes?"
"I'm sure I can entertain myself." Damon left and I wandered around looking at all the random things the Lockwoods had collected over the years. After about ten minutes I ended up back on the dining room, I saw Elena and Stefan or who I thought was Elena as soon as she turned around I noticed her necklace was missing, "What's she doing here?"
"Aww not happy to see me Alexis?" Kathrine sneered, "All healed up I see."
"What can I say I'm resilient." I did my best to calm my heart, pictures from the other night flashing though my head made that difficult.
"Well as much as I'd love a round two I have other things to do. Coming Stefan?" Kathrine stick out her hand Stefan pushed past us and led her away without taking her hand.
I rushed off to find Damon, he was standing outside I grabbed on to his arm, "Kathrine's here." I said no longer being able to hide the panic in my voice.
"So is Elena." Damon said pointing, Elena, Jenna and Jeremy. I called Elena over.
"What do now you want to talk?" She snarked.
"No, yes but not about what you want talk all about. Kathrin's here."
"What? Where?"
"Her and Stefan are out back."
"Does he know it's her?"
"Oh he knows we had a nice little chat."
Elena rushed off into the house, Damon took my hand, "We should probably go with her." Damon led me through the house, me dragging my heels the whole way. By the time we got out Stefan was tending to a wound on his stomach.
"She sure has a thing for stabbing people in the stomach." I said subconsciously rubbing where I was stabbed last night.
"Slow and painful sounds like Kathrine." Damon said.
Elena and Stefan left I took his seat on the bench putting my knee bouncing as soon as I sat down, "What was she even doing here?"
"Trying to steal your sisters man apparently." Damon put his hand on my leg to stop the bouncing, "The sound your pants make scraping up against the bench is oh so annoying."
"I'm sorry my anxiety bothers you." I said more sarcastically then I meant. "I'm sorry I, I don't get it, I've been attacked by vampires, shot by them but I got back up put my bad ass face on and kept going. Kathrine just, I don't know, terrifies me. I need to get it under control though, I can't afford to freeze up."
"I can fix that you know."
"No, that's not why I gave you that tonic."
"You gave it to me to help you let me help you."
I looked up at him, "No Damon I-"
He'd stopped listening, "Kathrine isn't going to set off that fight or flight feeling anymore, no more racing heartbeat no more anxiety," He paused for a minute, "and you won't remember me compelling you."
I blinked a few times, "Sorry what? I spaced out for a second."
"I was just suggesting we get out of here and find you some real food." He said with a smile.
"That sounds like a fantastic idea." I took his hand and we headed towards his car. After a quick trip to the grill and very satisfying cheese burger we headed back to the boarding house, I walked through the door sprawling out on one of the couches, Damon walked to the bar cart. I heard the front door open expecting it to be Stefan. I groaned seeing Kathrine saunter through the door, "My God you're worse the herpes, you just keep coming back."
"Big words for a little witch." She said with a smirk.
"What are you doing here Kathrine?" Damon said walking around the couch.
"I've been here a while actually, matter of fact I rolled in to town the same day Zach turned up dead." She looked towards the front door, "He was all to happy to invite Elena in to wait for Stefan."
"Today Kathrine." Damon said impatiently.
She strolled towards the couch I was on I sat up and readied myself to move, "What is it about this girl that broke a 145 year obsession Damon?"
"I'm not a manipulative bitch." I said standing up.
"I'm getting a little tired of your attitude." She slammed me up against the wall by my throat.
"Motus." I croaked out sending Kathrine flying across the room slamming into the archway, she got up and vamped towards me. Damon caught her off guard pushing her off course.
"Go." He said staring Kathrine down.
"But things were just getting exciting." She got up and walked towards the door, pausing before reaching for the handle, "Tell Stefan I said hi." And she was gone.
As soon as the door shut a fog clouded my head making me dizzy, my newfound discomfort must have been all over my face, "Are you ok?" Damon asked.
"My head, it's all fuzzy. Can you take me home? I think it's just the last couple days getting to me."
"Yeah sure."
