It was a dark night, as Katherine reached the compound, limping, vision going grey, heavily bleeding from her wounds. And once on the Mikaelson doorstep, she felt something hard beneath her, vision going black.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsEvAtlD0V

Klaus on his way out when he smell blood; human blood. And once he opened the door, he was shocked to see a very human Katerina on her back on the porch.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3P1qXxwzfi
He knelt down beside her.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMDTGBGj9n
“Katerina?” he called, as he assessed her condition and wounds with his eyes.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwxxQsLNM4
“Klaus…” she murmured, barely awake.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXFRQfzvMz
He pulled her gently into his arms.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4q3ArkjMw
“I’m here, luv,” he assured her.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUWc8T69sy
He got to his feet with her in his arms and hybrid-sped inside to his room.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKJCKjGYRO

By the time he had gently layed her down on her back on his bed, she had blacked out.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwq8A75EnS
He sat on her bedside and bit his wrist, putting it to her lips, making his blood go down her throat to heal her after what looked to be a vampire attack, hoping it would work, knowing that she had gotten the cure shoved down her throat.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodKcmz5sj4
A few minutes later, he took his wrist away and her wounds and his wrist healed.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwyQxj7wxq
He sighed in relief, glad that she would live to see another day. He had never shown it, but he had always secretly loved her and cared about her.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFEIm66nYJ
He rested a gentle hand on the left side of her face, looking down at her, and waited for her to awaken.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggRTD1TNis

When she woke up, it was still dark outside and she was in Klaus’ room, who was seated on her bedside, looking down at her like he cared for her.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHMTqGXTDU
“Tell me who did that to you,” he said, before she could say anything.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5H57Cq7Tv
“It was a vampire. That’s all I know. Why didn’t you kill me when you had the chance? I’m not worth anything to you anymore. I’m useless to you; especially, now that I’m a weak, helpless human.”519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkAQEbppET
“Is it so hard to believe that I care about what happens to you?” he questioned her.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX60fL6uyo1
“Yes.”519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldMKyAZAYW
“Apart from what I did 500 years ago, why?”519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6IayeSM2n
“Because like me, you’ll always be that monster,” she replied.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14sZymQuoV
“Is that really what you think of me? A monster? I saved your life tonight. I even refrained from showing up back in Mystic Falls to see you. I kept my distance, despite your change.”519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UXjr0bPbj
“If you want to help me, then do it. All I’ve had this summer is fear, loneliness, and hatred.”519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJu6KxU8wU
“Then I’ll help you. Despite what you think, we are alike, you and I.”519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXuYoJDFtX
She gave a smile.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdefL3b8Mv
“That we are.”519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDcz6Nk06P
He smiled back.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDGMmgiPaJ
A moment later, they were kissing with him on top.519Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0ItuTumqk
