Chapter 4
"Damon and Elena do what they want. Nobody can tell them different. They have their own diabolical plan and we won't know until they let us know." Stefan said.
"They're not as bad as you may think, Stefan." Karen said, quietly.
"You think you know them better than I do?" Stefan asked.
"No, I'm just saying that they only act that way is because of what fate hands them." Karen dended herself.
Stefan grumbled to himself. Karen frowned. From the little interaction she's had with them, they only seem to want to protect her and be nice to her. They're not the evil monsters that Stefan tried to feed her with. Karen shook her head and left the boarding house. She had a lot of thinking to do.
Damon smirked from his room when he heard that Karen was defending them. She can form her own opinions of Damon and Elena. He can see that she is just like them and will make an excellent vampire. She doesn't want it right now but wait until she's in her twenties to do it so she doesn't have to have a fake ID to get drinks. Elena is making a blood bag run and won't be back until later that evening.
Elena taught Damon how to defend himself when dealing with older vampires. Nobody can outmatch Elena since she's older than The Originals. Damon heard Stefan leave the house. Damon decided to pay Karen a little visit. Stefan has no idea how to handle a Petrova, too much fire.
Once he arrived at the Petrova house, he let himself in. He shook his head wondering why they don't lock their doors like normal people. He locked the door behind him and listened with his preternatural senses to see where she's at. She's in her room. He's just going to scare her.
He silently made his way up the stairs careful to avoid any loose floorboards. He walked into her room and saw her on the window seat writing in her diary. He flashed over to her bed and placed Teddy in his lap. He looked at her. Karen shut her diary shut and looked up and jumped, clutching her heart. Damon chuckled.
"You scared me. What are you doing here?" Karen asked.
"Doing the friendly neighborhood watch. You should really learn to lock your door because you may never know what goes bump in the night." Damon smirked.
Karen scoffed.
"Oh I forgot to tell you that vampires can sneak up on humans because we can make ourselves soundless. If we choose to, we can let humans know of our prescense." Damon shrugged.
"That's nice to know."
"We also know when someone eavesdropped. But with Stefan he never knows because his senses are dulled. We're at our full potential on human blood." Damon explained.
"Why are you telling me this?" Karen asked.
"Since you know of the supernatural life, I decided it'd be best that you know what's going on. And when its necessary we fight and I was taught by Elena to fight vampires that are older than me. I'm only 172 year old vampire."
"I don't want to be a vampire." Karen mumbled.
"You will have to be if needed but we're going to wait until you're in your twenties because you don't want to have fake IDs or use compulsion forever to get drunk." Damon said.
"I don't have any say in this do I?" Karen asked.
"Sorry to say that. So I guess you're going to need some vamp blood in your system at all times." Damon said.
"Why?" Karen asked.
"Insurance policy."
Karen gave him a questioning look.
"You can't die so this is way you'll come back." Damon said.
"Oh."
"I'll give you some of my blood every day."
"How are you going to do that?" Karen asked.
"I'll be back." Damon said.
Then he vanished downstairs. Karen shook her head. She was starting to get used to his disappearance and reappearance. Stefan advised against spending any time with them because according to him they're unpredictable. Maybe Stefan is unpredictable and wanting to control everything. Everyone picks Stefan over Damon because he's the golden child. No wonder Damon acts the way he does. He's used to being second choice. Elena always chooses Damon and he's okay with that. At first, he was scared that she would pick Stefan over him but she surprised him and stood by her decision.
Damon reappeared with a little cup of his blood. He handed it to Karen and she drank it all in one gulp and handed it back to him. They talked until it was time for her to get to sleep because of school. He disappeared out of her window and took off for the boarding house. Once he got there, he noticed that Stefan was still gone and he ghosted up the steps to his room. He looked towards the bathroom and saw Elena in the bathtub with a bottle of expensive champagne covered in bubbles.
"Don't just stand there. Come join me." Elena said.
He walked over to the tub and took off all his clothes noticing with interest that she was eating him up with her eyes. He raised an eyebrow at her and shook his head, grinning at his wife. She scooted forward and he stepped in behind her. He settled against the tub and she leaned back. He grabbed her flute and took a few sips then handed it back to her.
"Where were you?" Elena asked.
"At Karen's house." Damon said, while massaging her neck.
"Why?" Elena hummed.
"I eavesdropped on her and Stefan's conversation. She defended us and Stefan didn't take it well." Damon murmured.
"What she say?" Elena asked.
"Stefan is still convinced we have some diabolical plan and she thinks we're not as bad as Stefan thinks." Damon said, kissing her neck.
"We kind of are and his opinion doesn't matter. He likes to control everything and bully people into believing his half truths." Elena said.
"I agree. Karen has more of that fire than Stefan can handle and she would make a great vampire. I'm giving her my blood to ensure that she stays alive." Damon told her.
"Good idea."
They stopped talking after and just enjoyed themselves in the relaxing bubble bath. They enjoy bubble baths and showers. They got out and dried off then they went to bed. Cuddled up in the middle of the big king sized four poster bed.
A/N: Katherine looks like Elena in the books i.e. blood hair and blue eyes. Hope you guys enjoyed this chapter. I'll update as much as I can.
