Elena stood in his room for five minutes without moving. Did that really just happen? One day Stefan's bent on killing Klaus and hating me. The next he's giving up and in love with me? Elena didn't know what to do. Stefan had walked out of the room minutes ago explaining how much he would never stop loving her, and how she never gave up on him. Stefan had finally let his guard down. Elena began pacing the room and looking at the memories that every item held. She traced her fingers over his desk, the book cases, the chairs, and his journals. Before she could move anymore she heard feet coming up the stairs. "Elena?" Caroline called. Elena froze. Caroline couldn't see her reminiscing about her past with Stefan. She couldn't let people think she was emotionally weak. Caroline made her way into the room, "Hey, what are you doing in here?" Loathing. Self loathing. "Uh, I was just looking for the last of the stakes that Stefan couldn't find." "Oh, do you need some help?" Caroline asked. "No, I'm good. Thanks though" Elena replied as she faked a smile. "You don't have to hide it you know." "Hide what?" Elena said as she pretended to be confused. "You're confused. Everyone can see it. You love Damon." Elena felt all of the air leaving her stomach as she began to feel lightheaded. "You love Damon. Admit it." "I don't" Elena said while gritting her teeth. "Admit it! You so are!" "Okay! Yes! I do love Damon! But I am not in love with him. There's a difference between loving someone and being in love with someone. I am still in love with Stefan" she replied reluctantly. "You do know that Stefan is still in the house right? He has super-vamp hearing. Plus, you were screaming so-" "So he heard everything. Big deal. He already knows I still love him. And I know he still loves me. " Caroline frowned, "Then why don't you go get him?" "Because it won't be the same!" Elena yelled as Caroline flinched. "It will never be the same! He bit me! And I forgave him, but he hasn't forgiven himself. Maybe I will end up with Damon." "You said it yourself Elena. It isn't the same. You will never love Damon the way you love Stefan. You may be confused and hurt but you won't. I'm almost positive you won't." Caroline said calmly. "Then what am I supposed to do?" Elena asked. "Fight for it."
