Note: This is from Elena's POV when she stabs him with the vervain in episode 1x19.

I was never afraid of Stefan.

Not even when I first knew what he was

I was startled, suprised, even creeped out

But never was I afraid.

Even in this moment where his eyes were pleading with me

With so much hurt and pain

I was now afraid

I wasn't afraid of him or what he could do

Because I knew he would never hurt me

Contrary to his claims that he could

My body was completely numb

I was trembling with my fear

For Stefan's sake i kept my face solemn

Even though Damon was standing on the other side of the wall

I was afraid for Stefan

I was afraid for him

The night my parents died i was mortified

This feeling inside me was worse

I was terrifed for Stefan

As he slammed me against the wall in his anger that I caused him

I stabbed him with my weapon

I knew this was for the best

I didn't have to be afraid anymore

But that didn't stop me from being afraid

Thank God for Damon, even though he pretends not to care

So now one day thanks to him

I won't have to be afraid for Stefan

Nor will the day ever come when I will be afraid of Stefan.
