Katherine was standing in front of Ric’s loft. She was practicing her speech and gathering her courage.
“Come on, Katherine” she told herself. “Just go in there and tell him Du Liebe him” She pushed the latch down and entered.
“Stefan?” she called.
“I’m in here” Stefan replied from out of the living room. Katherine walked further into the room. Stefan was standing against the closet. He was alone. “I didn’t expect you, but I’m glad you’re here”
“Really?” Katherine asked hopeful. She couched to restore herself. “There’s something I have to tell you”
“Funny, I have to tell Du something too” Stefan said. “But Du first”
Katherine swallowed and took Stefan’s hands in hers. “I Liebe you, Stefan. I always have. I know I have had a lot of bett partners, but I have only loved you. I’m a liar and hündin and I’m selfish and Du can’t trust me, but if I’m ever honest, it’s now. I Liebe you, Stefan, and I know somewhere deep down, Du still Liebe me. The Stefan I met and fell in Liebe with, is still in there. I know Du Liebe me”
“Katherine” Stefan sagte soft. He had to bring this carefully, but then Rebekah came barging in from out of the kitchen. She ran to Katherine and waved her hand before her eyes. A small, diamond ring adorned her right ring finger.
“Have Du heard?” Rebekah asked beaming. “Stefan proposed to me”
Katherine let go of Stefan and looked at him shocked. She walked backwards, her chest going up and down.
“Katherine” Stefan repeated, but Katherine shook her head and turned around. She opened the door and left.

I could kick myself. Why the hell had I done it? Like the stupid thing was any use to me anyway. Of course I knew why I had done it: boredom and a Quelle of entertainment. These two things were precisely the reason why I had done many of the things I had done in my 1000 years of existence.
Now I was running from werewolves. Du could say I was on their "most wanted list" which was definitely not a good thing. Werwölfe hunted in packs and are a very loyal species. It was impossible to know how much of them were after me. Of course I was no stranger to being on the run which is why I never really had any real relationships. Before this…well that was a very long story indeed…
