Holy holy holy holy holy holy! I hit the 1,000 views! THANK YOU EVERYONE!

Katherine POV:

I feel like someone has sown my eyes together. I desperately want to open my eyes but I can't. I hear people talking around me sometimes but never seemed to be able to talk back. This is torture. Every time I hear a voice I get excited and hopeful. Maybe it's Elijah! Has he finally come back?! Each time I want to sink deeper into sleep when I realize it's not him. That's what I do, every time I let myself float farther away from reality.

Damon POV:

3 days. That's how long we've been at the hospital waiting for Katherine to freaking wake up. Did I think about leaving? Yes! Of course, I'm not stupid! Sadly though, when I want to leave Jer thinks we should stay and vice-versa. I hear doctors scurrying down the hall. They burst into Katherine's room and I jump to my feet and motion for Jeremy to follow. He does and together we run into her room, but before I even get in the door we're stopped. A male doctor pushes us out and pull us down a hall.

"Which one of you is Elijah?" He asked quickly. I look confused.

"Um, neither. Elijah is-"

"A family friend. Close with Thalia, why?" I roll my eyes when Jeremy cuts me off. I smile as he lies smoothly. We had made up a whole story about what happened and gave random names. Katherine was Thalia, Jeremy was Thomas and I was Derek. We're so smart.

"She keeps saying his name. Usually that means she can hear, so is there anyway to get him here? We feel that if she spoke to him she'd wake up." The doctor kept his voice business-like and professional so I sighed.

"I'll see what we can do. Come on Jer- Thomas, yes um Thomas." I caught myself quickly and Jeremy sighed and rolled his eyes and followed me out of the hospital.

"How the hell do we get in contact with Elijah?" He hissed at me as soon as we stepped out.

"I have know idea but I'm starting with calling." I pulled out my phone then looked around quickly before scrolling through my contacts to the very bottom. The last name, wow it had been awhile. I clicked on the phone number and put my phone to my ear. The phone rang and rand and rang, but on the last ring someone picked up.

"Can I help you Damon?" Rebekah asked from the other line of the phone and I groaned in annoyance.

"Please just let me speak to Elijah. We need him to-"

"Don't tell me your calling to beg him to come help Katherine." She cut me off mid-sentence and I couldn't help but be surprised.

"How do you know that?" I asked.

"Oh please, he's already on his way."

Katherine POV:

"Come on, don't make my big trip hear a waste," Someone was speaking in my room, close to me... very close, their hand was on my arm, their lips suddenly pressed to my ear, "Katerina, wake up." Their breath was soft and hot in my ear- wait! Katerina? Only two people call me that; Klaus and... Elijah. I wanted to rip my eyes open and look at him, but my Katherine Pierce, always dramatic, side took over and let my eyes flutter open daintily.

"Elijah?" I let my voice come out in a small, innocent whisper. I turned my head and looked at him. There he was, perfect as ever smiling slightly at me with his beautiful smile.

"I'm right here." He whispered back as I was violently ripped out of the moment with a burst of tears.

I sat up quickly and covered my face with my hands and sobbed into them. I tried to turn away, to get up and run, but as I jerked to the side a bunch of heavy machines all came with me. I looked down and saw I had a whole bunch of wires attaching me to those machines and tried to pull them off, but a pair of strong hands pushed my hands gently into my lap. I turned my head to the side with silent tears streaming down my face and saw Elijah looked down at me with worry in his eyes. I looked down but stopped pulling at the wires. I heard him sigh and then suddenly I was in his arms and he was hugging me tightly. I couldn't help it. I collapsed into him and clutched him to me tighter. He smelled like a fresh suit, so familiar, like home. I closed my eyes and could feel him chuckle so I couldn't help but smile along. This must be some sight, Katherine Pierce clutching onto someone like she can't let go, who would've guessed? He smooths my curls hair down and runs his hands up and down my back.

"How have you been my dear?" He asked soothingly. I was snapped back into the present and ripped myself away from him.

"Why didn't you call me back?" I couldn't help it. I reached up and slapped him across the face, looks like my Petrova fire was back, and this time, I'm not loosing it.
