*As I Lay Dying*
You and I
We’re like fireworks and symphonies
Exploding in the sky
With you
I’m alive
Like all the missing pieces of my heart
They finally collide
So stop time right here in the moonlight
‘Cause I don’t ever wanna close my eyes
Without you
I feel broke
Like I’m half of a whole
Without you
I’ve got no hand to hold
Without you
I feel torn
Like a sail in a storm
Without you
I’m just a sad song
I’m just a sad song

It was a dismal night, as Damon lay in bed, dying from a werewolf bite. He’d been an idiot and had listened to Caroline whom hadn’t wanted to leave him. He’d listened to her, because he hadn’t wanted Caroline to become a sacrifice in Klaus’ ritual. Now he was paying for the mistake of listening to her.
When he was close to death, Katherine walked in with the cure. It was Klaus’ blood. Klaus had just showed tonight that his blood was the cure for a werewolf bite. Now she had a vial of his blood in hand, as she entered Damon’s room, assuming that’s where he’d be. She was right, because she saw how close he was to dying. It broke her heart, since the only reason that she’d told him that she never loved him was to protect him from Klaus. She hadn’t wanted Klaus to kill him just for loving her.
She walked over and opened the vial. Then she put it to his lips, making it go down his throat to save him. Then she set it on the end table, when she’d given him enough. Then she rested a hand on the side of his face, looking down at him.
When he looked at her, she was relieved.
“You came back,” he said.
“I owed you one,” she replied, knowing that he’d never believe that she loved him. He always thought that she lied about everything.
He looked at her silently, trying to decipher what she meant by that.
She silently left the room.
*House Guest*
With you, I fall
It’s like I’m leaving all my past and silhouettes up on the wall
With you, I’m a beautiful mess
It’s like we’re standing hand in hand with all our fears up on the edge
So stop time right here in the moonlight
‘Cause I don’t ever wanna close my eyes
Without you
I feel broke
Like I’m half of a whole
Without you
I’ve got no hand to hold
Without you
I feel torn
Like a sail in a storm
Without you
I’m just a sad song

It was a nebulous night, as Damon sat in bed, reading one of John’s journals. It was all quiet until Katherine came into the room and crawled onto the bed, towards him, until she was on top of him, which made him put the journal down.
“You hurt me today,” she stated.
“Just a tad.”
“You were very mean and rough. Monstrous,” she replied.
“You deserved it,” he replied.
“I like this Damon,” she stated.
She leaned in, ready to kiss him.
He put gentle hands on either side of her face.
"Katherine, there are six other rooms in this house. Go find one."
He took his hands away and pushed her off him, making her land on her ass on the floor.
She gave him a shocked expression and he went back to reading the journal.
*The Return*
You’re the perfect melody
The only harmony I wanna hear
You’re my favorite part of me
With you standing next to me
I’ve got nothing to fear
Without you
I feel broke
Like I’m half of a whole
Without you
I’ve got no hand to hold
Without you
I feel torn
Like a sail in a storm
Without you
I’m just a sad song

It was a dismal night at the Salvatore boarding house, as they made out, her against the wall, using vampire speed as they did so. She’d shown up tonight and, since he’d missed her for 145 years, it was his instinct to make up lost time with her. Unknown to him, she’d missed him as well, but she wouldn’t say it. She was never one to show weakness to anyone.

It was a dark night, as they ran through the woods, her at a human pace. Then he caught up with her and soon they stood with her back against a tree.
“Why must you run from me?” he questioned her.
“Because I know that you will chase,” she said with a smile.
“Then let me chase you forever.”
She used a fingernail to make a cut by her collarbone.
“I won’t feed you, Damon. If you want it, take it,” she said, teaching him to take whatever he wanted without consequences.
“I choose you, Katherine,” he said, as he bent towards the opened wound to drink from her
