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?613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aoOkN0d3L
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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pCGr12wm7
Silas, at the moment, pretending to be Stefan, walked into the bathroom.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwOKN8CXoi
"What are you doing in my brother's bathroom?" he asked her.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RQvsMfoz4
"Isn't it obvious?" she said playfully. "Come join me."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xLavKg1l9
He bent down by the tub.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6mBSyyY4a
"You're human. That's good. You deserve it," he said to her, smiling.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnp6fxoYhO
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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrkcX6TuRI
He grabbed her by the throat and her head slammed against a part of the tub.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMTSJq4GiD
"Now I get to kill you," he said.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTG5C3zWWf2
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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJRGUWIRiU
"Stay away from her," he warned Silas.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoyAAn8NSI
Silas stared him down, before vanishing.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRO050Ncg7
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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPzIxS8okc
"Katherine," he called to her. "It's me. Can you hear me, Kat? Katherine."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMzG68EV3H
He rested a gentle hand on the left side of her face and gently patted her cheek, trying to wake her.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf85xWnVRvf
"Katherine, wake up. Come on. I didn't save your life for you to die on me."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31a479PTPX
She opened her eyes to see him, but she felt weak, light-headed, tired, and disoriented.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VUHw6S6Hp
"Damon," she whispered.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIIE8Yi4HA
"Hey," he greeted. "You're okay. You're alive."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWRCU2zM6y
"Thanks," she managed.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURbFzlP0ZW
"You're welcome," he replied.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHW49qnWKLP
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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLrzdOOJX9
She sat up.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILXKNlZhnF
"You saved my life, Damon. Thank you."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSS00w1LMQ
"I know. For now, Silas has left."613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCb55duaKrj
"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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcWqOcKzgq
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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTjR6nUAmY
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.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucc5Qj54Zq
Elena was instantly at her side.613Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2h3nZx2jHj
"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.
