Kaylee P.O.V.
I knew something must have happened when Damon told me to leave. He walked in the house looking like shit. I didn't believe for a second anything that he said. Although I thought I would make it easier on him and leave, plus the vampire face still creeped me out a little.
When I got back to the dorms, I noticed Jen was crying on her bed. I usually didn't know what to do with people who cry, so I casually went over to her and sat down beside her.
"Jen what's wrong?" I asked.
"That stupid Stefan Salvatore is what's wrong." She answered angrily.
"What happened? What did he do to you?" I asked worried about her. I knew he was a vampire and I knew what they were capable of. I didn't want her getting caught up in this world. Sadly, I was already caught up in it.
"He left. He apparently has a girlfriend over in Italy. I can't believe I am so stupid to think someone like him didn't have a girlfriend already! Ugh. I give up on guys. I am just going to play the field, never settle down, never get married." She said, crushing her face into a pillow. I was glad nothing serious happened to her. And at least with Stefan gone, then she wouldn't be caught up in the supernatural world. It's a good thing this happened. I wouldn't want anything to happen to her. I just rubbed her back hoping to calm her down a little bit. After a while, she fell asleep and I tip toed out of her room and shut the door.
I decided that it would be best to stay away from Damon. After all, he is the one who told me to stay away from him. But even so, I was going to make sure every time I saw him, he realized that I was the best thing he has ever given up. Sadly, that ment looking presentable for psychology class that he was in with me.
That night was spent of me and Jen both crying ourselves to sleep. But I promised myself, this was the one and only time I was ever going to cry for Damon Salvatore.
I had not seen Damon for the rest of the week. He never showed up for class, and after a while, I decided to give up trying to look good for class. The weekend came and went, and still no sign of him. Jen, apparently, had more than just a school girl crush on Stefan. I felt bad for her. She never wanted to go out anymore and was always locked in her room. After 2 weeks, I finally decided that it was time for us both to move on from our Salvatore brother break up. We went out for the whole weekend and had fun. And even met a few cuties named Matt and Tyler. Things were starting to look up again, but that still didn't keep my mind from returning to the dark man that consumed almost my every thought.
Damon P.O.V.
Once I told Stefan about the huge, colossal problem we had, he took the first plane to Kent. Luckily, Elena had a friend named Bonnie who was a witch and agreed to help us since Katherine was also threatening Elena. Pretty soon, we had a plan formed and we were ready to take action. I just hope that Kaylee would forgive me after this.
Katherine was easy to find. All we had to do was find the best house in town to search and poof, there she was. Bonnie put a spell on the house not allowing Katherine to leave. Stefan and I went into the house to get rid of this bitch once and for all.
"Katherine, I know you are here, come on out and play." I said. Stefan was behind me with a wooden stake ready to kill.
"Well, well, look who it is. My two favorite brothers finally returned to me. Did you miss me that much? It sure didn't take you long to come find me." She said. I could tell Stefan getting a little nervous, I mean I was too, this was our first love we were going to kill. But Stefan had the added pressure of Katherine looking exactly like Elena. Glad I was the smart one and decided to find myself a better looking woman. Also lucky for me, I don't think anyone else on the planet looked like her. Unless she had a twin…Hmm. That would be hot. Damon stop thinking about that now! I urged myself. I needed to be completely focused on our task here.
"I don't believe you boys just came here to chat?" She said and stalked over to us. Before we knew what was happening, she had Stefan pinned down to the ground, and his wooden stake. Perfect, looks like I have to do everything myself.
Katherine was aiming the stake at Stefan's heart. No one is going to kill my brother but me. I quickly tackled her off of him and stole the stake and drove it into her heart.
"Now you will learn not to threaten me. Got it bitch?" I said, as I watched her slowly turn into a corpse below me. I got up off of her and went to help up my brother. When we arrived at the front door, Bonnie let down the spell and we all went back to where we came from.
Once I got back to the school, I knew I should probably go face Kaylee sooner rather than later. I haven't seen her in 2 weeks. I was afraid to keep tabs on her because I knew that Katherine would be watching my every move. It was Friday night and I figured she was at her friend Jeff's cousins house, where we first met. I decided to go there first to see if I could find her.
I wish I hadn't found her. She was there alright. Grinding up on a guy I heard whose name was Tyler. I didn't like the way he looked at her. And I didn't like the way she looked back. I guess this is what I deserve though. No one should have to be with a monster. I slowly walked out of the room and left the house.
Feeling defeated, I quickly found the closest girl by the woods and drained her. I didn't know any other way. I knew pretending to be human was a stupid idea. I shouldn't have denied my true nature. I am a killer. Killing people for blood is what I do. I do not waste my time on some girl. I am not like my brother. I won't give into that way. Time to release what I really am to this campus.
Kaylee P.O.V.
While dancing with Tyler, I realized that this isn't where I wanted to be. I wanted to be dancing with my vampire. Even if he didn't want me anymore. I quickly excused myself and went out back to get some fresh air. Call me lame, but I wished on the first star I saw that I could see Damon again.
Ever hear the phrase 'be careful what you wish for'? Yeah, I wish I would have taken that into consideration because it actually does work at times. Back in the woods I saw two figures. One of them seemed to be struggling, but gave up quickly. I walked a little closer and recognized who it was. Although I didn't know the girl, the guy was definitely Damon. I let out a gasp as I realized what he was doing.
He must have heard me because soon his head popped up. He had on his vampire face which looked ten times more frightening with the blood dripping down his chin. He dropped the girl and took off quicker than anything I would have imagined possible. I grabbed the girl and ran inside while some people called 911 to help her.
Once the EMT's arrived, everyone went back home. I found out Jen had left almost an hour ago and realized I would be walking back to the dorms alone tonight. It was a long walk back to the dorms, and almost 3 am. The one thing about not going to school in the city, is that at night, the sky is pitch black. No lights, no cars, nothing. I held onto my cell phone tightly, just in case something were to happen.
Finally, after the longest walk home of my life, I saw my building. There was a figure sitting outside of the door on a bench. I quickly realized it to be Damon. I froze, remembering the last time I saw him, but then remember that this is Damon, the man I was hoping to prove was still human. I cautiously walked up to him and sat down on the bench besides him.
"You shouldn't have seen that tonight, I'm sorry." He said, not looking up from the ground.
"Yeah, well I did. But I understand that you have to feed, but why did you drain her so much?"
"I saw you, dancing with Tyler. I remembered you and me dancing like that once, I snapped."
"What does it matter to you anyways? You were the one who told me to stay away from you. Did that mean that I was never allowed to see anyone else again?" I asked. Getting angry that he thinks he can just walk out of my life but dictate how I live it.
"I only said that to protect you. Apparently Katherine wasn't dead. That one day I went to hunt, she said if I didn't leave you then she was going to kill you. But Stefan and I took care of her. Your safe now and that's all that matters."
"I'm sorry you had to kill her, I know that you still loved her. It must have been hard." He smirked.
"It wasn't hard. And I haven't loved her since I met you." He said smiling. I didn't know what to say. What were you supposed to say when a vampire admits that he loves you and killed his ex for you?
"Thanks. I can't say it back yet though. I know I definitely have feelings for you, but you just up and left. I can't forgive that easily. Time heals everything though." I said. He nodded his head in understanding. "But, can you promise me one thing?"
"What's that?" He asked curiously.
"Next time you hunt, can you try not to kill the person? That girl today was barely left alive."
"Yes, but she was left alive because of you. If you hadn't appeared, then she most certainly would have been dead. You bring out my humanity. With you gone, so is that." He said sincerely. "So what's going on with you and that Tyler kid?"
"Damon Salvatore, are you jealous?"
"No, I just don't like to share."
"Well, you have nothing to worry about. I just met him tonight and he was a good dance partner, although I think you were a little bit better."
"I should be, I've been around since almost every dance has been invented and mastered them all." He said smirking, proud of himself.
"Well I should go inside, it's getting late out." I said getting up. He stood also.
"Well, it was nice seeing you again. Once again, I am sorry for everything. I should have told you the truth, or at least stayed with you and protected you. I could have taken her by myself."
"Damon, it's over and done with. Let's just let it go. Okay?" I said unlocking the door to the building and stepping inside.
"Fine. But do I at least get a good night's kiss?"
"Sure, come and get it." I said smirking, while holding the door open for him.
"Uhm, I cannot come inside." He said hesitantly.
"Why?"
"No one has invited me in. As a vampire you have to be invited into places where humans live and sleep, otherwise it would give you guys an unfair advantage."
"Damon, please come in." With that being said, he walked into my building with a proud smile on his face. He then came close to me and kissed me. "Would you like to spend the night here? I have a double room, so Jen would never have to know and we would have a room to ourselves."
"I would love to." He said, following me up the stairs to my room. We snuck in quietly and shut my door. He started kissing me again, and as much as I hated to, I knew we couldn't keep it up.
"Damon, as much as I would love to keep kissing you, we really do need to sleep. Since you are sleeping over I figure I might as well tell you that my parents are visiting tomorrow and are taking me out to lunch. Perfect time for you to meet them." I said smiling.
"Oh yes, I can see it now, 'hi I am Kaylee's boyfriend, Damon. And yes, I did just sleep here last night and a few weeks ago she spent the night at my house. Also I am a blood thirsty vampire.' I can see this going very well. But if it means so much to you then yes, I would love to accompany you to lunch with your parents tomorrow." He said. "Luckily for you, you have already met my whole family with Stefan. Guess it's my turn now."
After a few more kisses, we both changed for bed and crawled in together. It was one of the best night's sleep I've had.
