It was noon; Stefan played with an old bottle bourbon and waited for Damon. They needed to talk. He heard his brother and Katherine and it made him crazy. He was angry with her for playing with him and his brother, but he was also jealous. Eventually, he heard them coming downstairs. 'I'm going to hunt,' Katherine said.
'Shall I come with you?' Damon asked.
'Nah,' Katherine said. 'I don't feel like sharing today.' She smiled playfully at him and winked. Damon laughed.
Stefan watched them. Katherine gave him a strange look before she watched Damon again. He kissed her while stroking her hair. 'Bye,' she said before speeding out the house. Stefan watched her go and sighed. He saw that Damon looked at him in a murderous way.
They just stood there, watching each other, both waiting for Katherine to be far away so she couldn't hear them.
'Brother,' Stefan said. 'I need to talk to you.'
'Of course you do,' Damon said. He walked towards the kitchen to grab a bottle of whisky. 'Then talk.'
Stefan sighed. This was going to be difficult. 'It's about Katherine.'
'Of course it is,' Damon said.
'You shouldn't trust her,' Stefan said. 'She's playing with you, with both of us.'
Damon reached his eyebrows.
'Really?'
'Yeah, really,' Stefan said. He wanted to say more, but Damon started laughing.
'Katherine is toying with us, you say? So you didn't try to seduce her, yesterday? You didn't try to touch her and told her that you still love her?'
Stefan was frozen with surprise. That bitch! Of course she didn't mean what she said yesterday, she just tried to mess with him. With both of them. And she told Damon he approached her, and now Damon didn't belief him!
'Damon, you have to trust me, I didn't,' Stefan began, but Damon shook his head and interrupted him.
'Why? Why are you doing this?' Damon said angrily. 'You were happy with Elena, you told me. And now you want Katherine back? Was Elena just a replacement for her? She deserves more than that.'
'Don't pretend like you care about Elena,' Stefan yelled. 'You only care about yourself, and maybe about Katherine.'
'Let me clear this up for you,' Damon said. 'I care enough about you to let you live, but never try to seduce Katherine again. Cause if you do, I will kill you.'
Stefan stared at him brother. Damon sighed, turned around and sped away.
Damon walked around Mystic Falls, without any purpose. He knew his brother hated him, but would he really try to take Katherine away from him? He smiled when he thought about her. He had missed her for so long and now she was here, with him. He almost couldn't believe it.
He found himself walking through Elena's street. He sighed. He didn't want to go home, but he didn't want to stay here either.
He heard footsteps behind him and he knew it was Elena. He wanted to walk away from her, but she started yelling his name and he turned around, slightly irritated.
'Hey Damon,' Elena said, smiling at him.
'Elena,' he said.
Elena stared at him, her smile disappeared. 'Is something wrong?' she asked.
He shrugged.
'Well, I wanted to thank you,' she said, smiling again. 'I went to see Caroline this morning, and she's doing great. You saved her, Damon.'
'You're welcome,' he said, not really interested in Caroline's well-being. He stared at the girl in front of him en frowned. She looked so much like Katherine, but yet she was so different. Because of her he tried to safe Caroline, he thought. She made him do good things. But that wasn't him. He didn't do good things; he only did because he wanted Elena 's love. He now realised that. Katherine was more like him, they fit perfectly together. And still… when Elena placed a hand at his arm, he felt his heart jump. She wanted to comfort him, she cared about him and that made him happy.
He shook of her hand. 'You're welcome,' he said again.
He turned and walked away. Elena stood still, watching him.
Katherine's changing him, she thought. For the worst.
Katherine ran towards the Mystic Falls hospital, to Caroline's room. She saw the blonde lying in her bed. She was awake, but didn't have any company. Perfect.
She closed the door and stepped towards the girl.
'Elena?' Caroline asked. 'What are you doing here? You're not allowed to visit me now.'
'Caroline,' Katherine said. 'How are you feeling?'
'I'm feeling… pretty good, actually,' Caroline said. 'Why are you here?'
Katherine bend towards Caroline. 'You will remember me coming here and asking you about advice about the Salvatore brothers. I told you I started to like Damon. You said that Damon was an dick and I hit you, really hard. You had a nosebleed. You haven't told the sisters, but you don't want to talk again to me. You will remember me having straight hair. And you will forget me compelling you.'
Katherine walked outside the door and watched over her shoulder. Caroline sat in her bed, a dizzy look in her eyes. Katherine smiled, left the building and went to search for her victim.
It took Damon long to find someone to bite. He wasn't really paying attention, actually. He was thinking about what happened and about Stefan and Elena. Did Stefan really love her?
Damon sighed. A few days he wanted to kiss Elena. He thought he loved her. Were those feelings true?
He sighed. Tomorrow was the day of the carnival, her realised. Would he be allowed to take Katherine with him? Would Elena come?
He would just went with Katherine, he decided. And if anyone got suspicious, they would either compel or kill him. When he got home, he would ask Katherine to come with him. He smiled, smelled someone, turned around and attacked.
