It was a dark night as Damon staggered through the Mystic Falls streets, very warm and sweating, not exactly himself. 694Please respect copyright.PENANAbdiWn8KEH8

Meanwhile, Katherine was out looking for her elder childe, having found that he was MIA.694Please respect copyright.PENANAtoaaYVMSxY

Once she found him, he began to hallucinate and pinned her to a pole, her back up against it.694Please respect copyright.PENANAAVzred0GOu
"I choose you, Katherine."694Please respect copyright.PENANAxLnkruR4cB
When he went for the side of her neck, she knew what he was hallucinating.

It was a dark night in the Mystic Falls woods, as Katherine stood with her back up against a tree, human Damon in front of her. 694Please respect copyright.PENANA14JDATJT9S
She used a fingernail to make a cut on her left collarbone. 694Please respect copyright.PENANAbjFgWE6rt6
"If you want it, take it," she instructed, teaching him something she had always done as long as she had been a vampire; take whatever you want, no matter the cost to others. 694Please respect copyright.PENANAdq0OMaXRlZ
He bent towards the cut. 694Please respect copyright.PENANAYYt2GVYbbp
"I choose you, Katherine."694Please respect copyright.PENANAWQOGxsChyE
She smiled.

She rested gentle but firm hands on either side of his head, making him stop, keeping him from biting her and making him look at her. 694Please respect copyright.PENANA3b0JagR99K
"You're hallucinating, Damon; stop," she said gently. 694Please respect copyright.PENANA1NaDQ50H7J
"Katherine?" he said, looking at her, realizing he had almost bitten her in the present, when he had hallucinated. 694Please respect copyright.PENANAc8KpXfSQkf
"I'm here. It's okay. You didn't hurt me," she assured him. 694Please respect copyright.PENANAnrGco3kO74
He let her go and stepped back, which turned into a stagger. 694Please respect copyright.PENANAe4XmuUHW2C
When he began to lose his balance from sudden weakness, she was instantly beside him and put an arm around him to help him. She then used her body weight to keep him on his feet. 694Please respect copyright.PENANAVh7fyPumAG
"Let's go home," she stated.694Please respect copyright.PENANAciNwOAviBo

Half an hour later, he lay in bed with his sire wetting his face down with a cool wet wash cloth. He was very pale and weak. 694Please respect copyright.PENANAsl8P1kf1tX
As she sat beside him on his bed, she felt helpless. She was helpless next to him. She was his sire and girlfriend. She was supposed to protect or at least save him, but all she could do was watch him slowly and painfully die. Her only hope was for Stefan to get the cure and bring it in time. 694Please respect copyright.PENANA7KT91hvlJH
"You should go. I could hurt you," he whispered. 694Please respect copyright.PENANAqkgNAm48cR
"You won't. I'm here until the very end."694Please respect copyright.PENANA26b7G4J6xS
"I love you," he replied in susurration, thinking this may be the last time he'd get to say it. 694Please respect copyright.PENANA6HcJXrcZFS
"I love you, too."694Please respect copyright.PENANAYS3Ujo79LK
She bent down and kissed him, before pulling away. 694Please respect copyright.PENANACfw5MMtADL
He closed his eyes. 694Please respect copyright.PENANAUEVeGNQJBo
"Thank...you," he managed to whisper. 694Please respect copyright.PENANABVBoa6ejxY
A moment later, Klaus walked in with a vial of blood in hand.694Please respect copyright.PENANAcwmOeG1uyi
She sensed a presence, so she turned to look and was surprised that he was there with the cure, instead of Stefan. 694Please respect copyright.PENANAflwMNyliBa
"I hate to interrupt dear Katerina, but here you go," he said, walking over to her. 694Please respect copyright.PENANAoGnW9mvbYd
She took it from him. 694Please respect copyright.PENANA5iwiWxSC8D
"Where's Stefan?" she questioned. 694Please respect copyright.PENANA9kY1NMCCvP
"Oh, he's paying for this; bringing out his inner demons. See you around, Katerina," he replied, before vanishing. 694Please respect copyright.PENANAarTfsEQOcv
She turned back to Damon and uncorked the vial, before putting it to his lips, making the blood go down his throat. 694Please respect copyright.PENANALzscfhZMYN
694Please respect copyright.PENANA5eZth6WHud
694Please respect copyright.PENANAnTLyAmDycG
Half an hour later he came to, cured, and she told him what he had missed. Now it was time to get Stefan back on track.
