Ch.11: How To Save A Life
Summary: Set in S7, but kind of a future fic. Elena is back to going to college with Caroline now that she has awakened after Bonnie’s death.

It was a dismal night in Mystic Falls, as Damon drove back to the boarding house after a few drinks. He’d gone to see Elena at Whitmore College, since she’d ignored his calls for a few days. He had to make sure she was safe. And she was. Now he was heading back home.555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQ5TuBkV83
Suddenly, on the desolate road, he saw someone lying down on the shoulder of the road. Usually he’d just pass by, but he had a gut feeling that he should stop, so he stopped the car by the person, close to the shoulder of the road.555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhu9NZkX80
As soon as he went around his car and knelt by her, he saw her familiar face, but he didn’t want to believe that it was really her.555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRfmONhocv
“Katherine?”555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkYnU5IfvF
He gently got her on her back. That’s when it was confirmed that Katherine was indeed alive, human, and injured. She was pale with blood on either side of her head. There was also blood pretty much everywhere. He could barely see where her wounds started and where the blood started. That’s how much blood there was. He could tell that she’d lost a lot of blood. He listened for a heartbeat and breathing and if his heart could beat, it would’ve sunk. He didn’t care what had happened to her for her to be like this. He only knew that he couldn’t leave her to die. She was slipping towards it, though. Her breathing was shallow and her heart was slowing.555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLvkfULUHV
He rested gentle hands on either side of her head.555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglOIwkhRDh
“Katherine, can you hear me? If you can hear me, open your eyes.”555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7YXx2XvPV
After a moment of no movement from her, he took the chance and bit his wrist, putting it to her lips, making his blood go down her throat to heal her if all possible.555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCHdDRzyaK
When her wounds had healed and she wasn’t dying anymore, he took his wrist away which obviously healed, and sighed in relief. Sure, he hated her, but whatever had happened to her, he wouldn’t wish on anyone.555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxHMvJbgWc
“Let’s get you out of here,” he said, and as he gently picked her up in his arms he added, “Upsie daisy.” Then he walked over to his car and gently set her in the passenger’s seat. He then closed the door and got in the driver’s seat and started driving again.555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSvieJhFBs
As he drove, he looked over at her, hoping for a sign that she was going to be waking up soon. He knew she was alive and healed, so he didn’t understand why she hadn’t woken up yet. He figured she had been through a lot though and just needed to rest for a while. He knew that after going through a lot, it made people exhausted. He’d gone through a lot himself. If he wasn’t a vampire, he would’ve been tired of all of this a long time ago. Even as a vampire, he wished sometimes that he could just go and take a long overdue nap and not have to deal with anything or anyone.555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJegejhZFKJ
He rested a gentle hand on top of her left one and looked at the road again. Maybe if she knew that she wasn’t alone and that she was safe with him, she’d wake up.

As he begins to raise his voice555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQYO6Gblou
You lower yours and grant him one last choice555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnnmd8QAK1
Drive until you lose the road555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJraugVaJo6
Or break with the ones you’ve followed555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0n1xglGiOi
He will do one of two things555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBIzWWSv4u
He will admit to everything555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOg4vDTsLHD
Or he’ll say he’s just not the same555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSEVvHcCZd

“Katherine, I don’t know if you can hear me or not, but I’m right here. I’m not going to hurt you. Whatever happened, I’m here for you. I promise you, you’re safe now. I won’t let anything happen to you. It’s okay now. You can open your eyes,” he said, as he continued looking at the road, hoping it would work. He didn’t want to have to go inside her head, considering he’d been cruel to her the last time he’d done that to her.555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQiuQTn39M
As the minutes clicked by and she still didn’t stir, he wondered if he would have to go inside her head or take her to the hospital, after all.555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjMZugMu1K
“Look, Katherine, I need you to wake up so that I know that you’ll live. I know now that I was wrong. I shouldn’t have been so cruel to you. You were dying and reliving your grief over your mother. You didn’t deserve what you got from neither Klaus nor me. I’m sorry for what I did to you. If I could do it over, I’d give you peace, instead. Please forgive me,” he confessed, meaning every word. Without her in his life or alive, he didn’t feel whole. The moment he’d watched Stefan kill her to get her out of Elena’s body, it felt like a small piece of him died along with her.

After his confession and everything he’d said, which she heard through the darkness, she began to awaken half an hour later.555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31cnT5bKcf
When she woke up, she was still weak but otherwise felt fine. The second thing she noticed was Damon driving with a hand on top of hers and a worried look. Seeing her awaken though, she saw him give her a smile, which she returned.555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWA3HoDR7l7
“How do you feel?” he questioned.555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNV05zhipI
“I feel fine.”555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0pHJPqpoH
“Good,” he replied.555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF27AHa3UYm
He pulled up to the house and she couldn’t help but comment, saying, “Home sweet home.”555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVa9QyPulP5
“Don’t worry. It’s just you and me now. Stefan left town and we broke up a while back,” he assured her.555Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1R52nCTuA
She smiled, happy about that.

After a year of living together in the boarding house, they finally fell back into love. And so their love story continued on. And the plus side was that she could digest vampire blood and was no longer dying. She just looked like she used to be before turning the first time. And so, after finding that out, she had Damon turn her back and he was glad to do so.
