Since Katherine was now able to get out of the compound, keeping tabs on her was much more difficult. She truly was a traveler and never stayed in the same place for very long, unless she was asleep, it seemed. Closing her eyes, Davina began to chant a spell to locate the woman she had resurrected. Davina had to keep her safe until the connection between them could be broken. If Katherine was harmed, the same afflictions would happen to her, something that Davina was grateful that Klaus did not know. He'd snap Katherine's neck quickly if he knew doing so would also put Davina down.
"Shopping, of course. I shouldn't have needed to use magic to figure that out."
Davina blinked as she stepped into the brightness outside, waiting for her eyes to adjust. The church was always dark, especially since Father Kiernan's death. Davina didn't light the candles, fearing that someone would ferret out her hiding place. Although anyone who knew her well most likely knew she was at the church. It was the only place left that she had to stay.
Walking among the shops nestled in The French Quarter, Davina found Katherine in a posh little boutique store, looking at a top. Frowning, Davina shook her head.
"You really need more color in your wardrobe."
Stepping closer to Katherine, Davina lowered her voice so her anger could be heard.

Davina's frown never left her face as she looked Katherine over once, looking for any sign of treachery from her. Finding none, Davina sighed and crooked her finger at her friend, summoning her to sit on a small bench towards the back of the store where there were less people.
"I believe you've met my....boyfriend, I guess. Kaleb. He said you stabbed him in the hand with a fork? What the hell did you do that for?"
Davina knew Katherine had no idea that she was forming a relationship with anyone, much less the boy she had stabbed but violence wasn't truly in Katherine's nature, not anymore at least. There had to be a reason for her to act out in such a way and Davina was determined to find out why.

Katherine followed Davina over to the bench, attemptimg to think about anything she had done recently. Her eyes snapped to Davina's when the witch mentioned Kaleb.
"Teenager, about this tall, constantly has this smug smile that makes you want to slap him? You're dating that?"
She made a face at her, a mixture of disgust and concern. She rolled her eyes, and raised a finger.
"It was his arm, actually. And i did it because he has been harassing me for the past few days. I told him to back off, he didn't so I acted." She shrugged slightly.

Arm, hand Davina didn't care about technicalities at the moment. She wanted answers. Once again, she was caught in the middle of two people at odds with one another; it was beginning to become tiresome. At least this time they weren't trying to kill each other though, not yet at least.
Davina's brow furrowed and she shook her head confused. Kaleb had been stalking and harassing Katherine? At first she thought they couldn't be talking about the same guy but Katherine had described him well, all except for the smug smile. It seemed Kaleb was different when he was around Davina than when around Katherine. Although, Davina was quite different when she was around him as well. She was a better Davina, a happier Davina. She was a Davina she didn't want to lose.
"Why would he be following and harassing you? What did he want?"

Katherine raised a brow at her. She tilted her head to stare up at the sky as she thought. She pursed her lips.
"Well, at first just started talking to me. And when I tried to leave, he grabbed me. I told him to back off, we fought a little, and then I left."
She narrowed her eyes slightly. In hind sight, maybe she overreacted just a tad bit. She shrugged after a moment.
"The second time he jumped the fence and sat down and started bugging me while I was eating. He kept stealing my fries. I told him to leave me alone again, and he kept calling me darlin' which i kept telling him to stop and...to be honest I can't even tell you why I stabbed him."

Davina tried to keep an open mind as Katherine explained to her how Kaleb had "harassed" her. True, he should have left when Katherine asked her to but perhaps he had his reasons not to leave. Maybe, he was trying to protect her from something that she didn't know about. He was very protective after all and maybe it wasn't just over her. Maybe he simply wanted to protect all women.
"So he jumped a fence and ate your fries while calling you darlin'. That's why you stabbed him. Sure it makes perfect sense. Just yesterday I slit the throat of a guy who gave me a weird look."
Davina rolled her eyes and looked Katherine over once more.
"I'll talk to him but the next time you stab someone, especially him, you'll be dealing with me. We both know what I'm capable of."
Davina knew that she would never do anything truly horrible to Katherine. She was her best friend after all. Looking down at the bracelet Kaleb had spelled for her, Davina smiled slightly as she twirled it on her wrist absentmindedly.
"He's not Klaus. He's not a monster and he cares about me Katherine. You're the best friend I've got but, just like you told me about Elijah, don't make me choose between the two of you."

Davina knew the feeling Katherine described all too well. It was the same feeling she had gotten when she first met Klaus. Well, at least the part about him annoying the hell out of her and immediately knowing not to trust him. Although, the things that Marcel had told her about him could've played a part in that as well.
"Look I don't want you to be best friends with him but don't ever stab him again. If you do, you can and will be held accountable."
Davina hated having to actually tell these things to a person, she felt ridiculous doing it, but she couldn't have her boyfriend getting stabbed at every turn either. There was nothing about Kaleb that wasn't trustworthy.
"He's a good guy Katherine. Look," Davina stated holding up her arm, to show Katherine the bracelet he had given her, "he gave me this. He spelled it with a protection spell for me because of everything going on. And...when Klaus tried to attack me at school, he protected me. I know he can be trusted Katherine."
Davina nodded sharply as if she had just won her case. She wanted Katherine to see how good of a guy that Kaleb was. That he didn't want harm to come to her. She knew that Katherine worried about her and she wanted to assure her that she was fine with the man who was in the process of stealing her heart.

Katherine held up her hands in surrender, and sighed heavily. She gave a short nod of her head.
"Fine. I'll attempt to reign in my violent tendencies."
She rolled her neck slightly, letting out a breath of relief as she felt tension being released.
"Davina...look. I don't want you to work up some delusion about me. I like you...so Im nice to you. I'm protective of you. But don't think that I'm like that with everyone...okay?"

Davina smiled and nodded, happy that Katherine would at least try not to stab anyone again. She knew Katherine had a rather sordid past and it would take time to get past it. Now that she was human, however, she had to learn a bit of tact. It could one day save her life.
"Thank you Katherine. I know that you're not usually as likeable towards other people as you are with me. Not many have gone through the things we have, especially when it comes to Klaus."
Leaning over, she gave Katherine a quick hug which was a gesture she didn't think Katherine was used to.
"I don't particularly like Elijah but I did protect him from Mikael, out of respect for your feelings towards him. I hope that you'd do the same for Kaleb."
With that being said, Davina turned and walked out of the store. She hoped Katherine would take her words to heart. She cared for Katherine and didn't want to see her in any pain from the loss of another person she cared about. It was her hope that Katherine would feel the same way about her and Kaleb.
