“You do realise that I’m going to want my humanity back,” Katherine zei finally, looking at the floor. Damon, Stefan and I tensed and we all glared at her. She looked up and put her hands up. “But don’t get all worked up about it! I need a witches spell to get my humanity back and I don’t know any witches anymore so,” I relaxed a little.
“Even if u do get a witch to help you, I won’t let u touch Elena,” Damon zei angrily. Stefan nodded. Katherine narrowed her eyebrows.
“I know u both love her and want her to be safe, but I’m sure that if I’m united with my humanity we’ll be the same person. We ARE the same person. She’s just me out of my own body. I need her. I need my humanity. I want to feel again. I want to love again…” she stroked Damon’s face. “I know in my hart-, hart that u would have been the man that I loved. I would have loved u so strongly that words can’t even describe. My hart-, hart aches to think that I may never get to feel that love.” Damon relaxed and stared into her eyes. I knew he still loved her. She looked at me. “I envy you. I envy u so much it hurts. u get to feel love. I miss love…” I couldn’t help but feel sorry for her. She seemed so desperate. But I didn’t know what would happen to my soul if I gave it over to Katherine. I could lose all my memories and thoughts and just become a part of Katherine. But I did know that even if that happened Damon would fall for Katherine again because her humanity would return, making her like me. Damon stood up.
“Katherine. Thank u for telling us everything. But I think it’s time for u to leave.” She stood up also, and nodded.
“I’ll leave, but don’t think I won’t be back,” she replied, smiling.
“I know u will,” Damon said, and suddenly she was gone. We all breathed out heavily at the same time.
“I think I need to go out and, u know…” Stefan zei as he raised himself from his chair. He disappeared too and left Damon and I standing idly in the centre of the room. Damon slowly turned to me and wrapped his arms around me.
“Don’t u ever think that if Katherine gets her humanity from you, that I’ll just love Katherine again immediately. I will never let her take you, Elena. You’re the girl I love and I never ever want to lose you,” he zei softly as he kissed the top, boven of my head. I leant my face up to his.
“I never want to lose u either,” I replied quietly and pressed my lips firmly against his. When we broke apart he held my face in his hands.
“I know a way that I can protect u from Katherine ever getting her humanity. And it will mean that u and I will never have to leave one another. I want u forever, Elena.” I stepped back as I realised what he was getting at.
“Damon…are u saying….” I gasped. He nodded.
“Yes, Elena. I think I should turn you,” he replied.
