It was ruined. It was completely and totally ruined. Katherine had realized that she blew all chances on a reunion with the Salvatore brother she really loved. What was she thinking, pretending to be Elena? Bonnie was annoying, but not stupid. Katherine was lucky to be still alive. And so was Bonnie. She had Damon to thank for that. Katherine hoped, with every fibre in her body, that he would take her down.
She had tried to pass Damon’s message to Elena, but it seemed to be a lost case.
“Elena, Damon needs to tell you something” she said looking Elena sharp in the eye. “He wanted to tell you himself, but he can’t. Bonnie won’t let him”
Elena’s eyes bulged. “What is it?” she asked all curious.
“He wants to tell you that he loves you” Katherine said. “And he’s going to bring you back”
“Back from where?” Elena smiled uncomprehending. “I’m right here”
How much self-restraint Katherine needed not to slap Elena, but she knew Stefan would never forgive her if Elena got hurt. And she needed Stefan to be not angry with her.
She drank a glass of whisky and broke the glass with her grip. She felt a stinging pain in her hand and watch the cut heal.
“You need to be more careful” a familiar voice said.
Katherine froze. She recognized the voice, but didn’t dare to turn around in case she was imagining things. She wanted him to be back so badly it wouldn’t surprise her if she was hallucinating.
“Are you just going to stand there?” the voice asked. “Don’t get me wrong, I like your back, it’s a nice back. But I think I prefer your face”
She gathered her courage and slowly turned around. Her heart beat fast and painful. She wasn’t dreaming, he was really there.
“Hi, Katherine” Stefan said. “I’m back”

“Hi, Katherine” Stefan said. “I’m back”
They heard the door close and wondered who came barging in, until a familiar, female and British voice solved the mystery.
“Anyone home?” Rebekah called from downstairs.
“Ugh” Damon sighed. “I’ll go” He stood up and walked to the door, but when he wanted to open it, the door was slammed in his face and Rebekah barged in. She held a guy in her right hand and a blood bag in her left hand.
“What are you doing here?” Elena asked tired.
“I came to apologize” Rebekah explained flighty, while she tossed the bag to Damon. “I was wrong to bite you. It’s just that I busted Stefan smooching with that vamp strumpet and you look like her, so I got carried away. I don’t understand what it is that draws Stefan to women with your appearances. You’re not even that pretty”
“I appreciate your honesty” Elena commented sarcastically.
“Hey, I’m as open as your legs were last night” Rebekah replied blunt and Elena’s cheeks turned red.

The next morning.
Jo woke up, because someone was banging the door.
“Mr. Allen? Open the door!” a female voice said.
Jo stumbled out of bed and wiped her eyes. She walked to the door and opened it. There were two inspectors, a man and a woman.
“Good morning, miss. I’m inspector Roberts, this is my colleague inspector Williams” Isabel said, showing her badge. “We need to talk to Emmanuel Allen. We were told we could find him here”
Jo frowned and shook her head. “I don’t know anyone with that name. You have the wrong house”
Inspector Williams searched in his bag and conjured a picture. “Maybe this might help you?” he said. Jo’s eyes widened and she took the picture. “I know him” she admitted. “But his name’s not Emmanuel. It’s Castiel”
