Fifty Shades Of Grayson (2nd revised version; Kali
Where were you?
Where were you?
Lost and insecure
Why did you have to wait?
You found me
You found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded
Surrounded
Just a little late
Introduction
You know how people talk about death and dying? They say that your life flashes before your eyes right before you die. For me though, that’s not what I saw as I lay dying. There was pain and then all I saw was my elder childe, Damon Salvatore, and my ex-boyfriend, Elijah Mikaelson. Then there was darkness, though I knew I was most likely going to die if I wasn’t already dead. Who am I you ask? My name is Katherine Pierce, formerly Katerina Petrova. This is how I died.
It was a dark night at the Mystic Falls hospital, as Damon stood outside a room, watching the doctors try to revive her after her heart attack at the boarding house. He wished he had been there, because if they couldn’t revive her, she would’ve died alone and possibly in pain.
Finally, after twenty minutes, they were able to revive her, and she was settled into a recovery room.
Damon was never good at farewells, so he didn’t want to watch her possibly die. Besides, even though he cared about her and would always love her, her heart would always belong to a certain Original in a suit. And that’s exactly who he called.
“Damon. What a surprise,” Elijah answered.
“Well, if it isn’t my favorite Original. I wouldn’t be calling if it wasn’t important, but I thought you should know since you care about her so much.”
Elijah knew who he was referring to at that last part.
“Tell me. What has happened?”
“Katherine was pretty much angry at the whole world on Graduation night, so she took it out on Elena who shoved the cure down her throat. After Silas drank her blood, we found out that the cure did something to her. Time is catching up with her. She’s human and dying of old age. She had a heart attack tonight at the bottom of the stairs. I found her and took her to the hospital. They were able to revive her, but they don’t think she’ll make it through tonight.”
“Thank you. I’m on my way,” Elijah replied to the elder Salvatore.
They both hung up and Elijah sped to Mystic Falls to be with his Katerina. Even if he couldn’t save her and had to watch her die, he would, for once in his life, choose her above everything else. She was his world; his love of 500 years. She was everything to him and more. And if she was truly on her deathbed, then he would at least get to see her one last time to say goodbye, no matter how deep it hurt him.
An hour later, he walked into her hospital room and went to stand at her bedside. It broke his heart, seeing her this way, but at least he could say that he had seen her one last time; that that night he told her “Goodbye, Katerina,” and had left her for his family, wouldn’t be the last time he had seen her.
He sat on her bedside and held her right hand in his left one.
“Oh, Katerina,” he said. “I’m sorry. Please, forgive me. I would’ve come sooner, but I did not know until tonight. I’m here now, Katerina. You are not alone. I am here until the very end, my beautiful Katerina. I promise that I will not leave you. I give you my word. You and I are together, always and forever,” he promised her.
He looked down at her, as he promised her that.
In the end, he stayed with her until the end and buried her in the New Orleans cemetery. It grieved him that she was forever dead, but now she was at peace. He hoped she was at peace, anyway. She had had 500 years of torment, grief, despair, sorrow, and heartbreak. She didn’t deserve that on the Other Side. And that, he believed, was the end of their epic love story. In the end, his promise, always and forever, had broken what should have been a long-lasting love.
