They say we’ve got nothing in common
No common ground to start from and we’re falling apart
You’ll say the world has come between us
Our lives have come between us
Still I know you just don’t care
And I said, what about Breakfast at Tiffany’s?
She said, “I think I remember the film
As I recall, I think we both kinda liked it”
And I said, “Well, that’s the one thing we’ve got”

It was a dark night in Mystic Falls at the Salvatore boarding house, as Katherine, newly turned human again, layed in bed in a guest room upstairs, knowing she wasn’t far away from joining the Other Side. She wanted to hang on just a while longer, though. If Elijah knew what was happening to her and was on his way, she didn’t want to die before he could say goodbye to her. She wanted him here. Just being in his presence always gave her some kind of peace. She couldn’t say why or how, but he gave her peace. Having him a part of her life made her have hope that she could have a chance at being forgiven. She had done such horrible things that she knew something horrible waited for her on the Other Side. She could make peace with that though, if she could be forgiven. It would be a relief to her just to see Elijah one last time. She doubted that Klaus had told him of her condition, though. He hated her with a dark passion; worse than Damon did.
I see you, the only one who knew me
And now your eyes see through me
I guess I was wrong
So what now it’s plain to see we’re over
And I hate when things are over

After waiting for him to show up and he didn’t, she took her last breath, not knowing what was going to happen next or what Elijah felt about her now that she was dead.
When so much is left undone
They say we’ve got nothing in common
No common ground to start from and we’re falling apart
You’ll say the world has come between us
Our lives have come between us
Still I know you just don’t care

Two years later, she miraculously came back to life after surviving Hell in the 1994 prison world with Kai. When she came back to life though, she was in terrible shape. Kai had done a number on her, but she had to get somewhere safe; find Elijah. She had ended up in New Orleans, after all. And what better Mikaelson to go to than Elijah? They may have broken up, but he was still the noble brother.

When she was on a desolate street, her vision went dim from blood loss and she leaned against a wall. Then everything went black.
Elijah was on his way home from the bar when, on a desolate street, he saw someone he had chased for 500 years. She was in terrible shape. There was a lot of blood and she was very pale. That made him realize that she was human. Having lost Gia and all his other lovers for 1,000 years due to Klaus, and still in love with her, he didn’t want anything to happen to her. Unlike others, he’d never wish death upon her.
He was instantly knelt at her side.
He gently slid an arm under her, crook of arm supporting her head, and bit his wrist, putting it to her lips, making his blood go down her throat to heal and save her. He just hoped it would work. He didn’t know how she was human.
“Stay with me, Katerina.”
A few minutes later, he took his wrist away, which instantly healed.
He silently looked down at her, as her wounds healed, but she remained in the same state, her breathing slow from massive blood loss.
I can’t lose you, Katerina. Please, he thought.
He rested a gentle hand on the side of her face, hoping for her to wake up. He didn’t want to lose her. He couldn’t bear it. Even though he had broken up with her, she was his world; more so than Gia had been. She was the only girl, apart from Rebekah of course, who completely understood him and accepted all of who he was; both the good and bad parts. She didn’t judge him, even though he always had chosen family above her.
“I’m so sorry, Katerina. Please forgive me. You were right. It’s our turn. I just need you to open your eyes. If you can hear me, open your eyes, Katerina. Please,” he said, almost begging. He knew she had lost a lot of blood, but he thought that she’d be okay, anyway. She just needed time to restore her strength. If she woke up, she would still be weak.
A few minutes later, she came to, which realized him.
“Elijah,” she greeted weakly.
“Katerina,” he greeted back.
She gave a smile, knowing he had saved her life.
He smiled back.
“Thanks,” she said.
“You’re welcome. Let’s get you home,” he replied.
As he got to his feet with her in his arms, she wrapped weak arms around his neck and rested her head on his shoulder, before closing her yes.
Later, after she woke up in his bed feeling better, she told him everything he had missed and assured him that he was forgiven, knowing how he felt about not being there for her.
In the end, they got back together.
