Tweak says, "Tweak!"

"Or better yet," Katherine turned her attention to Damon, taking a few steps toward him. Cat eyes studied him, almost taunting him. "Kiss me, Damon. She'll feel that, too." It was a dare. One she hoped he'd take. For one, it would stir up a ton of old, bad feelings between the brothers. For another, even though she'd told Damon it would always be Stefan, the man did know how to kiss. And with a skill that Stefan could only aspire to.

Damon glared at Katherine for a moment, moving in a blur and pushing her against the wall of the room. He looked at her intently for a moment and then he crashed his lips to hers. He knew that he shouldn't be doing this, but he couldn't help himself.

Stefan didn't waste much time in tearing them apart. "What are you doing?!" he demanded of Damon. Damon wiped at his mouth and turned, staggering to the decanter to get himself a drink.

Katherine smirked up at him, feeling that tingly sensation traveling down her spine. "Mmmm," she hummed softly. "I'm sure she felt that...right down to the tips of her boring little toes."

And outside, Elena had felt it. Gasping softly, though not in pain, her cheeks colored as Bonnie looked over at her. "...something's going on in there, Bonnie," she breathed heavily. "I need to..." She needed to get in there. And see what was going on.

Damon poured himself a drink and took a large gulp and turned to see Stefan glaring at him. "I'll ask you again, what are you doing."

Damon had wanted Elena to feel it. Wanted her to know what she was missing out on. "She was hurt. I thought I'd distract her from the pain," he said, shrugging.

Stefan glared and shoved him against the wall. Damon blurred to his feet. "Remember, we're here to kill Katherine, not ourselves. We can talk about this another time."

Katherine just grinned at the two of them. "We all know what we're doing here," she advised, strutting to the couch and taking a seat once again. "Give me the moonstone and we can all go our separate little ways. And you can explain to Elena why she felt such an...exhilarating kiss."

Almost on cue, Elena was at the door, Bonnie having been detained by the other witch. There was blood on her shirt, the back soaked through. "What is going on?" She demanded.

"Right now or what you felt about five seconds ago?" Katherine questioned, lazily, studying her nails.

Damon's eyes drifted to Elena and he couldn't help but wonder what she thought about what she had felt. And then he noticed the blood and his interests shifted. "Are you okay?" he asked. Before she could say another word he had tore into his wrist and held it out to her.

Stefan placed his hands on his hips and shook his head, trying to calm his anger. He didn't want to give Katherine the satisfaction.

Katherine was having far too much fun, eyes twinkling. "It really is amazing," she commented, pushing herself up, moving to stand by Stefan. "If I didn't know any better, I'd almost think they were going out."

A shake of her head. As much pain as she was in...there was something about the way Stefan was looking at his brother... "What's going on?" She questioned, trying to blink back tears and appear strong. At least in front of Katherine.

"Just take the blood," Katherine interjected. "It's no fun when a toy is nearly broken. And then we can all talk about how you feel everything I do. Everything." And without further ado, she'd leaned in quickly pressing a kiss to Stefan's lips, confident that he wouldn't push her away too roughly. Not with Elena already hurt.

"...was that what...?" No, it was different. Elena could tell that much.

Stefan pursed his lips tightly together, trying to remain calm. It was proving very difficult.

Damon stepped closer to Elena, hoping that she would take the blood. He didn't want her to be in pain.

But he stopped when he saw Katherine kissing Stefan. And he looked away, because he really didn't want to see that. Not that he cared if they kissed, just it made him feel a little sick.

Stefan was caught off guard by the kiss too and he did his best to push Katherine off him and gently as possible.

Damon's eyes darted to Elena when she trailed off. Did she realise the difference? Did she like the difference? Did she prefer his kiss to Stefan's?

Katherine stayed pressed against him a few moments longer then straightened of her own accord, glancing nonchalantly over at Elena. "I can see why you have trouble choosing between them. I always did."

Elena was struggling to take a breath, leaning against the doorjamb, her eyes moving to Damon, realization written in her gaze. "That was you..." But he'd known it was Katherine, hadn't he? "Did you know...?"

"That's the whole reason he did it." As per usual, Katherine couldn't keep her mouth shut. "I told him you'd feel everything I did." But she was quickly getting bored. "Do we really have to play Maury all night? Or can you continue after I'm gone with my moonstone?"

Damon looked away from Elena instantly, not wanting to see the look of anger, or rejection that Elena was no doubt going to throw at him. Instead he whipped a stake from up his sleeve and pinned Katherine against the wall, holding it over her heart. "When this is all over, I'm going to drive a stake through your heart," he said, his voice low and menacing.

Stefan moved to pull him back. He knew that Damon wouldn't kill Katherine when Elena felt everything she did, but at the same time, it wasn't a risk he wanted to take either.

"You're hot," Katherine grinned up at him. "When did you get to be so hot?" She almost giggled, toying with his tie.

"Damon, no," Elena stepped forward, ready to lunge, or she would have, if she hadn't managed to tear at her wound. "Please, Damon..." Eyes were full of tears. She was hurting and so confused about everything.

"Yes, Damon," Katherine completed. "Do." He wouldn't. She was certain of that.

	Damon moved back. He wouldn't stake Katherine if it would hurt Elena. He lowered the stake and tossed it on the ground and then moved toward Elena again, not looking at her but tearing into his wrist once more and holding it out to her. "Drink, Elena. You need to heal." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Katherine let her hand settled on Stefan's shoulder as Damon pulled back, smirking as he moved once more to Elena. She was ready to refuse him again but...then he couldn't even look at her. And she took his wrist, lips gently meeting the sensitive skin. He was right. She did need to heal. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Stefan looked away slight as Elena drank from Damon. Damon kept his eyes on anything but Elena because he didn't need to see that look in her eyes. The one that told him he would never compare to Stefan and he would never be with her the way he wanted to be. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Straightening after a moment, Elena licked the blood from her lips, wounds closing as the blood worked its way through her system. But there was still an air of awkwardness between her and Damon. Tension thick in the air.

"You know, this could be the perfect solution to everything," Katherine advised. "You with me, Elena with Damon... There's a certain poetic symmetry to it." She'd continue pushing boundaries while she and Elena were still linked.

Even so, she stepped away, moving toward the other two in the room. "Why not just...stop fighting it Damon. You did once, already tonight. Didn't it feel good?"

Predatory gaze turned to Elena, eyes locked on hers."Don't you want to feel it again, Elena? Just give in for once? Stop being such a goody two-shoes."

Stefan shook his head, wanting to get out of this room. "No matter what happens, I am not going to be with you, Katherine."

Damon was having a hard time controlling his anger. "You need to learn when you're fighting a losing battle, Katherine," he said. And he meant that in relation to her and Stefan, and in relation to Elena ever wanting to do something like that again.

He walked over to the decanter to pour himself another drink.

"And you're not going to be with Elena either," she replied easily. "I don't lose, Damon. I always get what I want. It might take me a little while but that's what back up plans are for. And the back-up to the back-up. And the back-up to the...well..you get the point." She'd planned for the three of them to be together but if it meant keeping Elena out of her hair, she supposed she could sacrifice Damon to the greater good.

"Why are you doing this?" Elena questioned, staring at the vampire with bafflement in her eyes.

"Because I want the moonstone back. It's very simple. Hand it over and this whole night can end happily. Otherwise, I have no issue tearing my throat open. I'll heal. Elena won't. Call Jeremy or Caroline or whatever other little minions you have running around. Five minutes. Or else."

	Damon took another long sip of his drink and Stefan shook his head again. "Just get her the damn moonstone," Damon said. He didn't care about it any more. He couldn't be in this room with the bitch any longer and he wasn't going to allow Elena to get hurt again. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

And somehow Katherine did it again. Taking the moonstone, her witch broke the spell on the room. And she waltzed out with barely a look back.

Stefan started to step toward Elena but she shook her head, taking a ginger seat on the chair, leaning forward so her blood didn't stain the fabric. Katherine was still out there. Which meant she was still pushing for them to break up. And which meant her family wasn't safe as long as she and Stefan were together.

	Stefan wanted to comfort Elena but she wasn't going to let him. Damon grabbed the stake off the ground, flipped it and started to walk out of the room. "We need to end her," he said. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_doppelganger_ 2014-01-07 12:22 pm UTC (link)
	"She's gone," Elena answered, voice soft, full of tears as she looked up at him. "Damon, please..." She couldn't stand anyone else getting hurt tonight. Not to mention they had a lot to discuss. And she was looking to him...not Stefan. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mystic_damon 2014-01-07 12:25 pm UTC (link)
	He paused and turned to look back at her. "Fine, I'll let the bitch go," he said. "Stefan, take your girlfriend home." He didn't want to be in this room any longer. Stefan glanced at Elena, who was looking at Damon. Something seemed to have changed and he really didn't like it. "Come on Elena, let me take you home," he said. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Another shake of her head. "I'll take myself home." She brushed by them both, pausing in the doorway, not really looking at either of them.

"She almost killed Jenna the last time, Stefan. Do you really think she's going to stop just because she has the moonstone?" They couldn't be together. It was that simple.

She couldn't do this. A shake of her head, tears overflowing. She'd drive herself home...after she calmed down a little.

	Stefan watched her go, his heart breaking but he knew she was right. Katherine got what Katherine wanted. And if she wanted to tear them apart, she would. Damon glanced after Elena and then followed her out. "You're in no state to drive. Come on, I'll drop you home," he said, still avoiding looking at her properly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_doppelganger_ 2014-01-07 12:38 pm UTC (link)
	"I can drive myself, Damon," she answered. He wouldn't let it go. She knew Damon enough to know that much. So she stepped outside. Down onto the lawn as she strode toward her car. "You can't even look at me." And yet he wanted to drive her home? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mystic_damon 2014-01-07 12:42 pm UTC (link)
	"Okay, fine," he said, grabbing her and staring into her eyes. "Lets get it over with. All out in the open. Tell me how you wish I hadn't done what I did. How you can't ever be with me. How it will always be Stefan, even if you can't be with him right now." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
