Katherine Pierce Imagines

Feelings

Katherine could see how glum you were. She was ignoring you, hoping that you would perk up. She'd been glad when you were assigned to keep her captive while everyone else rushed off.

She figured that she would be out and off into the night within the hour. But you were moping and normally she found your constant fawning irritating. But you weren't fawning over her now. You were staring out of the window.

"What could possibly be wrong with you? I'm the one tied up." Katherine snapped when you sighed again and moved to look out of the window.

"Why do you want to know?" You asked and looked away from the window to Katherine. Damon had left her tied up to the chair while he and Elena hurried off to find Stefan, Caroline and Matt. No one had seen Bonnie for a few days.

"Because. You're Moping and it's irritating." Katherine said casually.

"I can't help it." Your answer was defensive and had a bite to it. Katherine's head tilted curiously as she smiled slyly. You were her sweet little fool. She could convince you of anything no matter how often you were warned. Of course your allergy to vervain worked in her favour. At least it had until Damon had compelled you to no longer do as she asked.

"What could possibly have you so rattled?" She asked you as she shifted in her seat.

"Well... Bonnie has been gone for four days and she said if she doesn't reach out by the end of the fourth day to go looking for her, Elena kissed Matt because he was wearing a mask and a costume that Stefan was supposed to be wearing which has caused a whole drama because she's supposed to be dating Damon. Caroline is totally in love with Tyler, or so she claims, but she's mad at Elena for kissing Matt when Elena didn't know it was Matt she thought it was Stefan. Tyler knows that Caroline is pulling away and Jeremy, well we were walking to meet Tyler because he was sad and we were attacked by something, Damon said we shouldn't have been in the woods, Stefan said that Elena shouldn't have blamed me for us both getting attacked. But Jeremy is in the hospital and he's bleeding purple blood! It's just all so much." You summed up. Katherine listened. Her face was blank, her eyebrows raised as she watched you pace around and ramble on. She tried not to draw attention to the fact that as you spoke she'd finally pulled the knots and ropes loose.

"Do you just walk around all day thinking about other people's feelings? How do you get anything done?" She asked as she finally got free and stood. You stepped back and frowned.

"Well. I just. I don't know. Why wouldn't I think about their feelings?" You muttered. Katherine shrugged as she mumbled her way around the room.

"Why should you. They haven't noticed how upset you are about what's going on, so why bother caring? You're running yourself ragged with worry for nothing. If I were you I'd just worry about myself." She gave you an intense look as she stopped in front of you. "No matter who I'm working for, I look out for myself. Maybe you should try it." Katherine smiled before turning and hurrying towards the door in a blur. You hurried after her but stopped when she yanked the door open, tried to exit and was flung backwards.

"So you are working with someone then?" Stefan said as he and Damon stepped into view, filling the doorway. Bonnie emerged from behind them and smiled with satisfaction.

"You see. They used you as bait. You should stop caring so much about them." Katherine said casually as Stefan and Damon dragged her back to the room she'd fled. Kathrine tried to fight them off but stopped, her face falling blank as she shouted your name and something moved behind you. When you turned you screamed. It was the person from the woods, but now they had a clearer form and looked more human. They grabbed at you and as you flailed around to get loose of their grip you saw Bonnie with her hands thrown wide and a grimace on her face as she chanted. Stefan and Damon had abandoned Katherine and were hurrying after you. But Katherine remained trapped, a hand covering her mouth as she stared in shock or fear. In seconds you were dragged from the drive and out into the woods as the shouts of your name grew quieter.
