Elena: "Jenna that isn't healthy!"
Elena Gilbert was with her aunt Jenna and her younger brother Jeremy at the grocery store. Jenna had picked up three packs of Oreos since boyfriend Logan Fell had broken up with her.
Jenna: "Elena, does it even matter anymore?"
Elena: "Jenna. Don't every say that. We are human, we are alive."
Jeremy came up with six packs of microwavable dinners, "Is this good for dinner this week?"
Elena: "No Jer, I'll cook this week."
Elena left with the six packages and went over to put them back and pick up things she could cook. She was looking down at her phone since she needed to search recipies and ingredients when she bumped into a stranger.
Elena: "Oh my gosh, I am so sorry. I am such a clutz! I shouldn't be texting and walking!"
Damon: "It's okay, you just need some practice."
This stranger smiled at her, "Hi I'm Damon, Damon Salvatore."
Elena: "I'm Elena, Elena Gilbert."
Damon: "Well I'll see you around."
Elena: "Wait, Damon?"
Damon: "Yes?"
Elena: "Since I bumped into you the least I could do is buy you coffee sometime."
Damon: "I would love that."
They exchanged information and left each other. Damon went home where he knew his younger brother was. Damon was glad he was alive and met a nice girl after such a horrible break up with Andy. He was human and he only had one life to live and he had to live it right.
Stefan: Hey Damon, what's for dinner?"
Damon: "What are you making?"
Stefan: "Isn't that why you went to the store?"
Damon: "Oh yeah, I met a girl."
Stefan: "Oh…another one…"
Damon: "Stefan, stop. We only get one life, live how you want."
Stefan: "Well, what's her name?"
The words came out of his mouth so smoothly, "Elena Gilbert."
