Summary: Set in S5E1. What if Damon saved Kat from Silas when he tried to drown her? What if the vervain made Caroline black out when she had that water?625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEgODY19xw
It was a dark night in Mystic Falls, Virginia. Human Katherine was taking a bath upstairs in Damon's bathroom. She was alone in the Salvatore boarding house, because Damon was dealing with a Jeremy issue. She didn't know what issue it was, but she hoped he would be back soon in case any of her enemies came by to kill her tonight.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2s5NvR5Tto
Silas, at the moment, pretending to be Stefan, walked into the bathroom.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYt76ond3e
"What are you doing in my brother's bathroom?" he asked her.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ACK1iWZtf
"Isn't it obvious?" she said playfully. "Come join me."625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilEzoR5jc7
He bent down by the tub.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfIZSblcHc
"You're human. That's good. You deserve it," he said to her, smiling.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRX1pAkzyc
Knowing Stefan would never say something like that, she knew he had to be Silas. So she reached over to grab a knife that she had in the corner as a weapon for herself.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fQEyW4cFk
He grabbed her by the throat and her head slammed against a part of the tub.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEygcJBnA2
"Now I get to kill you," he said.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIincszee1
She tried to fight him, as he held her under the water, hand around her throat, but he was immortal. He was much stronger than her.
When Damon walked in to see the scene, he through Silas away from her at vamp speed.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP52gEuatFZ
"Stay away from her," he warned Silas.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHIx0Fzwtv
Silas stared him down, before vanishing.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTBLN592B4
At vamp speed, Damon was by the tub. Without hesitation, he lifted her gently out of the tub and grabbed a white towel. He then layed it on the floor and gently layed her down on it.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jTB7fEgXa
"Katherine," he called to her. "It's me. Can you hear me, Kat? Katherine."625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZq4hqwEdeI
He rested a gentle hand on the left side of her face and gently patted her cheek, trying to wake her.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UwFjDL7xj
"Katherine, wake up. Come on. I didn't save your life for you to die on me."625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1bGp2zZDe
She opened her eyes to see him, but she felt weak, light-headed, tired, and disoriented.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDAdLJyEZ5
"Damon," she whispered.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGSepc7Ivq
"Hey," he greeted. "You're okay. You're alive."625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPScuQv09x
"Thanks," she managed.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncFKWTL0ow
"You're welcome," he replied.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpenxkNxgqx
A moment later, she blacked out.
When she awoke, she saw that she was in his bed in his room, fully clothed, Damon leaning in the doorway.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KnsUTAsLH
She sat up.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydtytT3Mwv
"You saved my life, Damon. Thank you."625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLwWQXXLyy
"I know. For now, Silas has left."625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpdkRQAVLi
"Good."
Caroline and Elena were at college with Megan as a roommate. They didn't know their roommate and had hoped to see Bonnie. They didn't know where she was, because they hadn't heard from her or seen her on campus.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VmEqmR1j8
Megan and Elena weren't in the room. Elena had gone to check out a party, while Megan had gone to join the party. So Caroline decided to do a little snooping around in Megan's stuff. But then when she drank half a bottle of what said Vitamin water, she realized it was vervained water.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTFd2J4Eth
She fell to the floor from weakness and the burning sensation. And as she fell, she dropped the bottle and the rest of the water spilled onto the floor and burned her hand and arm from touch. When it did, she screamed in pain. And because there was vervain in her system, the room spun. Then everything went black for her.
Elena walked into the room to tell her about the party, when she saw her best friend and smelled vervain.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVJmKaSCPa
Elena was instantly at her side.625Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkr5rpLtjk
"Caroline. Caroline, wake up. Caroline," she called, while hoping Megan wouldn't walk in to see the scene.
When she came to, Elena knew she'd be okay.
When the end of the day was over for everyone, Elena and Caroline went to bed, Jeremy and Damon kept an eye on Katherine, and everyone kept a look out for Silas.
