"Look at what you did!" Katherine screamed angrily at Damon, shoving at him forcefully.
"You're still living in the past holding this stupid stuff I did against me. Seriously get over it and move on and live life. I'm trying to be happy and you have to try and ruin it for me!" she said all frustrated.
She stomped out of the house, going in the same path Elena had just went.
She tried her best to follow Elena's scent.
But after a while it twined with another scent. Human blood. Shit! Katherine followed the scent and easily came in on the scene.
Elena sat on the ground looking broken as ever. Two bodies laid a couple yards away from her. Elena froze from her sobs and her head darted up alerted by the sounds of footsteps coming closer to her.
She looked in the direction. There were corky dark curls and dark brown eyes. That's all Elena could see through her blurry red-tainted vision. As if she sensed her, she knew it was Katherine.
Katherine huffed out worriedly and stared at the mess that she knew she'd have to clean up now. Since Elena didn't seem to be in her right state of mind for it now.
Katherine stayed quiet and just stared at Elena. When Katherine was ready to go burn the bodies, Elena jumped up and was suddenly in front of Katherine.
"Leave them," Elena just about ordered. Katherine arched a confused brow. "Just hold me for now," she rasped out brokenly.
She fell into Katherine's waiting arms, like she would as if she were human.
Katherine sat them both down on the ground and just let Elena sob into her neck. "I was right, we should've never come here. It was a bad idea from the start," Elena rasped out, her voice thick with tears.
"No it wasn't. If you didn't let Damon get to you like that, we would be perfectly fine. You can't do that if we stay here for a while, you have to not care about what everyone thinks," Katherine urged on.
Elena stopped with her tears that were mixed with the salt-water and blood still smudged across her face.
"We proved it to him and he's sure going to tell everyone. So what's the point?" she demanded roughly.
"We have to prove that they don't affect us and we're fine and you're happy," Katherine fired back stubbornly.
Elena glared angrily. "Why? Like you said, it doesn't matter what they think?" she fired back. "You got me there," Katherine chuckled sarcastically and rolled her eyes.
"Do you want to be considered some whiny little girl that is scared of her family and friends? Or do you wanna stand up to them and show them you don't give a fuck? Huh?" Katherine questioned vigorously. She had stood up and was now bending down, forcing Elena to look her in the eye.
Elena stared up at Katherine in disbelief. She had known very well that Katherine could be as means as she was now. But she never really observed it herself.
"Which one is it?" she demanded relentlessly. "Because if you choose to whimp out, we will go back. But if we do I don't want to hear you about self-loathing and rambling about them not approving," Katherine said lowly and seeming like she was threatening Elena.
Elena felt heat hit her and she felt pure anger hit her. "You think you can yank me around like that don't you?" Elena drawled out suddenly standing up, nose to nose with Katherine then.
Katherine smirked; she got the right reaction out of Elena finally.
"I don't think I know," Katherine whispered back huskily. Her deep dark sinful eyes taking Elena in fully. Elena snarled and slammed Katherine against the tree. She growled, the redness pooling in her eyes. The teeth sharpened threateningly and the veins snaked to life beneath the surface of her cheeks.
Katherine only smirked more from the form of a threat Elena was trying to throw at her. "No you can't! Not like they did, you're suppose to be different from them!" Elena exclaimed emotionally.
That suddenly caused Katherine to stop instantly. "How would they do it? Violently like I do?" Katherine questioned.
"Stefan, never. Damon did somewhat, but not to where it was horrible and soul-scarring," Elena backed away slowly from her. "Good, because if they did: They're dead," Katherine said lowly and sounding threatening towards the Salvatores.
Elena shivered and just stayed quiet. She gulped, "listen I'm sorry about everything that just happened now." Katherine grinned slightly, "it's fine." Elena came forward slowly and Katherine filled the space and hugged Elena fully.
Elena felt her sadness and anger go away. "You're not like them. You never will be," Elena whispered, cuddling closer into Katherine.
Katherine was happy that Elena wasn't upset anymore, but she just stayed quiet and kept up the hug.
They pulled back and stared at eachother. "So let's just be normal here. We'll leave the bodies to send a message to them," Katherine decided deviously.
Elena stared at Katherine with wide lighted eyes. "Ok," she felt she couldn't disagree. They both just turned around and walked off, leaving the bodies there like they didn't care. Which they didn't.
Later they laid out across their bed in silence. "Tonight, I hunted for this first time," Elena broke the silence shakily.
Katherine easily knew what was to come. "I know," Katherine commented coming to sit up next to her. "Did you enjoy it?" Katherine asked knowingly. Elena gulped nervously and nodded self-consciously.
Katherine nodded in understanding. Remembering her days as a newborn. She had ran off from Trevor and Rose. Simply scared of what Rose would do to her.
She killed freely and would stay on the run. The hunt was amazing and she loved it. Now she knew the phase that Elena was going to go through soon. Just by the looks of it.
"That's ok Elena," Katherine gently ran her knuckles down the small of her back. "I can't. I'm suppose to be good," Elena whimpered, resting her head in Katherine's lap.
She petted her hair casually and just nodded. Understanding somewhat of what Elena was saying.
"Elena feeling the bloodlust doesn't make you a horrible person, it's part of who we are," she said. Elena shivered uncomfortably, just to think about the bloodthirsty monster she could easily become if she lost control of it.
"But I'm scared of who I could become," Elena said. Katherine slid out from Elena, which left her head resting on the bed.
Katherine laid down on her stomach so her and Elena were now face to face; nose to nose. "You won't become anything. I'll make sure of it," Katherine promised.
Elena felt her adoration and surprise for Katherine become deeper with this promise. "I love you," Elena whispered adoringly. Katherine couldn't help but grin back, I love you too: Always," Katherine whispered back, pecking Elena on the tip of her nose teasingly.
