"To you, I'll give the world."




I snatch the bottle of Bourbon off the shelf that Maddox was just using and pour myself a drink. I can feel Katherine watching me.

"What were you trying to accomplish with attacking him." She squints her eyes at me.

I take a gulp of the drink, before setting it back down on the counter, not answering her.

She just continues to watch me as I walk to Alarics drawer.

I pull out a wooden stake and hold it tight, as if I would need to use it any second.

"What are you doing?" I hear from behind me.

"Why so many questions?" I snap back. I'm still mad for what she did to Jenna.

I go back to the counter and pour another drink to kill some time. I wouldn't want to run into Klaus and his minion while going into the dance. That would be an awkward interaction. There's a drawer slightly ajar to my left, that catches my attention. I walk over and pull it open. I slightly smirk as I see my phone and I slide it in my back pocket.

After I feel like i've waited long enough, I start to head to the door.

"Where do you think you're going?"

Jesus woman I feel like i'm being interrogated.

"Away from here" I look back at her.

She looks at me in question before taking a big breath in and then smirking as she realizes.

"Oh you sneaky human."

She's commenting on my vervain ankle bracelet I have on.

"Oh, did I make the one and only Katherine Pierce proud?" I say with fake enthusiasm.

But her smirk doesn't faulter despite my jabs.

"I suppose i'm not all that suprised that Klaus didn't smell the vervain. He's not in his usual body so his quality's aren't as prominent." She practically snarls his name.

I hum in recognition before tilting my head at her, "What's with all the blood?"

She takes a glance at herself, seeing all the blood covering her legs and arms.

"Klaus didn't like the fact I hid from him that his Rose Bukater is in town." She smirks when she sees the confusion on my face that I had unsuccessfully tried to cover up.
