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.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNxFHRuQGv

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.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkNGHmZsRU
He knelt down beside her.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJadrgT2JhM
“Katerina?” he called, as he assessed her condition and wounds with his eyes.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bkYnuTFhB
“Klaus…” she murmured, barely awake.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJBTeVP7Ir
He pulled her gently into his arms.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdwajt0y0c
“I’m here, luv,” he assured her.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJV4fQQuZoH
He got to his feet with her in his arms and hybrid-sped inside to his room.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MCNiHKwSj

By the time he had gently layed her down on her back on his bed, she had blacked out.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLcux9pzNd
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.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjCUD9asWp
A few minutes later, he took his wrist away and her wounds and his wrist healed.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MmDEcIpFV
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.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8eIKngSyp
He rested a gentle hand on the left side of her face, looking down at her, and waited for her to awaken.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5zAORebZ8

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.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJl0fXJVzR
“Tell me who did that to you,” he said, before she could say anything.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXuz4IxOrD
“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.”538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSiqtSeXck
“Is it so hard to believe that I care about what happens to you?” he questioned her.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrP0cvGTD2j
“Yes.”538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3wxgv39Nv
“Apart from what I did 500 years ago, why?”538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CAy5q9zNH
“Because like me, you’ll always be that monster,” she replied.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kUYgCvo5h
“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.”538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFHtKNIEYt
“If you want to help me, then do it. All I’ve had this summer is fear, loneliness, and hatred.”538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8598vz6BdE
“Then I’ll help you. Despite what you think, we are alike, you and I.”538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOk5qRLPdR
She gave a smile.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrwPnAsRRd
“That we are.”538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxuvJasRiR
He smiled back.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvMOdqCBdf
A moment later, they were kissing with him on top.538Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5rTWbAhkk
