Katherine and Stefan were sitting in the living room while they were waiting for Amber to get downstairs. Stefan stared at her and tried to read her, which he couldn’t. Katherine was in dilemma. Stefan was here, sitting with her. Wasn’t that exactly what she had hoped for? The only obstacle were Amber and Elena, though Katherine believed Elena would be much easier to get rid of. Two words: Damon Salvatore. Speaking of which, the witch ব্যক্ত she let him go. If that was true, where was he? And why hadn’t he told Katherine, when he knew how worried she’d been.
“I’m going to call him” she ব্যক্ত eventually. Stefan blinked and nodded. He didn’t have to ask who she was talking about. “He…eh… he needs to know”
“Of course” Stefan agreed.
Katherine took her phone and dialed Damon’s number. The three সেকেন্ড she had to wait seemed like an eternity. “Damon?” she asked hastily.
“Yeah” Damon confirmed.
“Where are you?” Katherine asked accentuating. “Bonnie ব্যক্ত আপনি and her were kind of… over”
“Kind of” Damon said. “She promised to leave me alone”
“Where are you?” Katherine repeated.
“I’m with Elena” Damon answered. “You want me to come over?” he ব্যক্ত in a tone that sounded like that was the last thing he wanted. And Katherine could hear that. With a quick glance at Stefan she replied: “No, it’s okay. আপনি can stay right where আপনি are” She hung up.
“And?” Stefan informed.
“He’s fine” Katherine said.
“Well, where is he?” Stefan asked. Katherine shrugged and tried to avoid the question. If Stefan knew he was with Elena, he would go running straight to her and claim her. “He’s somewhere safe” she ব্যক্ত avoiding.
“I’m not interested in his well-being, Katherine” Stefan ব্যক্ত fiercely. That মতামত frightened Katherine a bit. She knew Stefan used to be a very bad person in the past, but she had always believed he cared for his brother. “If he has left Bonnie, it means he got what he wanted. I have no idea what that could be, but it sure as hell won’t be something good”
Katherine got up and started pacing around. She turned at Stefan and she looked really frustrated. “How many times do I have to say it?” she exclaimed. “Damon’s the victim here, not Bonnie. She’s crazy, I knew he shouldn’t go to her, but he didn’t listen, of course. But he’s okay now, so can’t আপনি let it go?”
“Why didn’t আপনি tell him I was back?” Stefan asked, pretending not to have heard any of Katherine’s speech. “I thought আপনি ব্যক্ত he needs to know”
Damn it. He had driven her into a corner and she saw no way to get out.
“I didn’t think about it” was the first excuse she came up with. Stefan breathed through his nose and pursed his lips. “Right” he said. “He’s with Elena, isn’t he?” He looked at Katherine. She didn’t answer, but the expression on her face ব্যক্ত enough. “Wow, when did আপনি become an open book?”
He got up and left the boarding-house.

Katherine was sitting on a chair. A row of small stakes pinched each arm to the arm-rests and a special kind of muzzle kept her mouth shut. The muzzle also had stakes, smaller than the arm stakes, and they pierced through Katherine’s jaws. “I’m sorry for the inconvenience” Veronica ব্যক্ত demeaning. “Actually, I’m not. আপনি had this coming. আপনি broke in here, আপনি threatened me” She took a chair and put it down in front of Katherine. “Such a pity Derek chose the wrong side. If he hadn’t Damon Salvatore would be sitting পরবর্তি to you”
Katherine managed to produce a smirk.
“Oh, don’t be so smug” Veronica sniffed. “I’ll get to him. He’s the one that killed Kelsey. He will die a slow and painful death” she said, আরো to herself than to Katherine. She stood up and walked to a corner, where she picked up her cross-bow. “In the meantime” she said, while she aimed the crossbow at Katherine. “I have আপনি to have fun with” and she fired.

Damon raced outside and got into his car. He turned around the keys and drove onto the street. He then pushed the accelerator pedal and raced ahead.
He tried to keep his eyes open. He should have drunken some blood, if only just a little bit. He could almost feel his body breaking inside. But he had to stay awake long enough to get to the hospital.
Other drivers were hooting, because he drove from right to left and from left to right.
“Where did আপনি get your driving license?!” someone yelled angry.
Damon felt his eyes fall down. The car drove for another few yards, while other drivers tried to avoid it.
Then the car drove off the road, turned over three times, landed on its upper side and caught fire.
