Katherine giggled as she strutted around the room. "There's one more thing you don't know." She held up a finger before taking a sip of her champagne.

Both Salvatore's turned her with annoyance. They had trapped her in this room to kill her but since she connected herself to Elena, they couldn't so now they just had to wait around and listen to her talk until they could come up with another plan.

"Oh, come on. You have to be slightly interested in what I'm talking about." And by the look in their eyes, she knew she had caught them.

"And why would you be giving us this information unless you want something in return?" Stefan questioned.

"The only thing I want in return is the reaction and oh boy is it going to be a good one." She tilted her head and moved her eyes away from Stefan and towards Damon. "Do you happen to remember [name]? He was a rather good friend of yours in 1864?"

The calmness Damon had been exuding dropped immediately as he heard the name. The man he had loved in 1864. The only man he had ever been with. "Bringing up someone from my past? That's pathetic, Katherine."

"So you don't want to know what happened to him after you broke his heart to be with me." And once again, she had Damon's full attention. He made it too easy sometimes.

The memory made Damon full with guilt. Back in 1864 he thought he and [name] were meant to be together but then he may Katherine and the thought of having an easy relationship with a woman of the difficult one with a man made him make a decision he constantly regretted. He had left him for Katherine. He could still remember the look of anguish within the man's eyes.

"But why Damon?"

"Because it's the right thing to do."

And at the time, he thought it was the right thing but he had never loved Katherine as much as he loved [name]. He went back for him after he turned into a vampire but the man had disappeared. No one knew what happened to him so Damon tried his best to move on and forget about him. He hadn't heard of his name in over one hundred years.

"Get on with it! Your stalling isn't cute." Damon snapped at her.

"Well, after you broke his poor heart, I took pity on him. Seeing him on his knees crying after you let was quite pathetic. I was going to off him but... I saw something special in him. So I turned him. He never disappeared, Damon. He ran away with me. He's in Mystic Falls right now waiting for me to come home to him."

"You're lying!" Damon shouted, speeding towards Katherine and shoving her against the wall, a stake pointed at her heart.

"Damon! No! She's still connected to Elena! You'll hurt her!" Stefan shouted, grabbing onto Damon's arm and trying to tug him away from Katherine, who was only looking more entertained by the second.

"I have no reason to lie. Did you ever wonder why I never came back for you and Stefan? It's because I found someone better. [name] is simply delicious, isn't he?" Her tongue rubbed over her top lip. "He's been so good to me all these years."

"You and [name] are together?" Damon snarled, tightening his grip around her neck, wanting nothing more then to crush her windpipe and watch the life drain from her eyes.

"Have been since 1864 and since we met after he turned, I never even had to use compulsion on him. How does that feel, Damon? That he's been alive this whole time and has never once wanted to be with you? In fact, he told me he hated you for what you did to him." She laughed loudly as Stefan was finally able to get Damon off of her.

He had been alive that whole time... Damon's eyes were wide, searching the floor. He felt sick to his stomach. Not only was [name] a vampire but he was with Katherine and in all this time he had never once tried to contact him. It hurt. More then Damon cared to admit.

"Would you like to speak with him? I can't say he'll be to pleased about it." Katherine got her phone out and held it up. Damon's eyes zeroed in on it, practically begging to hear his voice again. She dialled [name]'s number and threw the phone over to Damon.

He caught it with ease and pushed it to his ear. It rang for a few short moments. "Is everything going the way you planned, Katherine?"

That voice. After all these years it still sent the same feeling through Damon. He really was still alive. "[name]." He breathed out in a whisper.

"Damon Salvatore." His voice responded in a silky smooth tone. "Been a while. How have you been?" He asked sarcastically.

"You're with Katherine? I don't know if you think that's a good idea or not but she's just using you. That's all she does to everyone."

"And what makes you think I'm not the one using her?" The vampire laughed. "My relationship with Katherine is none of your concern. All you need to worry about is doing what we want before we make this town rain blood."

The innocent, kind man Damon had met all those years ago was gone and replaced with someone he hardly recognised. Though he couldn't blame him. Damon had changed quite a bit as well. "You don't have to do this. We can meet up and talk. We can work this out. No one has to get hurt."

"But what's the fun in that? I don't want to meet up with you, nor do I want to continue you talk you. Do what Katherine wants or I'll be caused to retaliate. What's her name? Elena is it? I'm looking at her right now. Give Katherine the moonstone, or the doppelgängers head will be disconnected from her body. Bye, bye now."

Damon pulled the phone away from his ear and threw it against the wall, causing it to smash into pieces.

"Now." Katherine brought the attention back to her. "About that moonstone?"
