When I head downstairs that morning, Katherine's at the bar in the kitchen. She's sipping a wine glass of red wine.492Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSN6oN1rn0
I enter the kitchen and sit at her left on a bar stool.492Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJAbCDuzk1
"I'm glad you're feeling better, but what are you doing here?" I ask her.
"I came to see you. I heard that you told Damon."492Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9Vx3t2xld
"Yes. I hope that wasn't a mistake."492Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sEb27GCFJ
"It wasn't. I just came by to thank you for that, and for what you did for me last night. I think I owe you one after that."492Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfF3GNPnfVD
"You don't owe me anything, Katherine. I did it for Elena. Don't make me regret it."492Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPXWg54GBH
"Keep telling yourself that, Alaric. But I think you're starting to care. And it scares you that you're starting to care for a vampire like me. Because you know what others think of me."492Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtS9GjRCOhF
As she speaks, I know she's right.
