A/N I DO NOT OWN ANYTHING! I ONLY OWN THIS PLOT! Thanks to my beta Elena Rain! She always helped me with Bonnie's spell in this chapter. Now just to give you guys a heads up, I'll be going out of town for a little while so I won't be updating for 2 weeks the longest but I promise when I get back I'll do my best to give you guys another update. On with the chapter:

When Elena fell asleep Stefan took her home. That's when he called Bonnie over.

"Bonnie, I need you to do me a huge favor and it's a lot to ask but I don't know what else to do."

"Sure, what can I do?"

"I need you to bring the ghost back…at least Jeremy and Lexi. I need her and Elena needs Jeremy."

Bonnie sighed. "Stefan, do you know how hard it was for me to get rid of them. Bringing them back is dangerous for everyone. "

"I'm not asking for everyone, just Jeremy and Lexi, you did it once."

"Stefan, I wish I could but I can't."

"It doesn't have to be forever, just a few hours."

Bonnie sighed. "I'll see what I can do, Stefan but I'm not making any promises for either of you."

"It's all I can ask."

Bonnie left and Stefan sighed. "Emily, if you can hear me, please help me, help Bonnie to help me and Elena, please."

After that he went up to his room and climbed into bed with Elena falling asleep.

The next morning Stefan woke up and Elena was gone. He instantly panicked.

"Elena?" he called out.

"In the bathroom…."

He sighed. Klaus may have been dead but he still worried about her.

She came out dressed in regular clothes with her hair done nicely and a bit of makeup.

"Morning." She said.

"Morning, how'd you sleep?" he asked.

She climbed back into bed with him and cuddled into his chest. "Fine, I guess. I didn't have any nightmares. I'm sorry about yesterday. I know it must have been hard for you to help me."

"Don't worry about me. I'm fine."

"Is the house still a mess?"

"Nah, I think Bonnie and Caroline went to clean everything up."

Elena sighed. "I don't know what happen to me last night. I just…I was so angry and I couldn't control it."

"Elena, anger is one of the five stages of grief. You've spent most of this time being sad and depressed, sometimes in denial. Last night all that hurt and pain turned into anger and so you acted on it. Nobody blames you."

Elena sighed. "Is Tyler ok?"

"Yes, Damon didn't touch him. Speaking of Tyler….how you do feel now that you know the truth?"

Elena just shrugged. "I almost don't want to believe that it's true but, I've seen him sired before. I know how strong that bond is. I also know Jeremy and Tyler were spending a ton of time together before the crash. I never understood why until now."

Stefan sighed. "I'm so sorry, Elena. I wish there was something I could do."

Elena smiled gently, "You've already done more than I could have asked for. I love you, Stefan. I'd never be able to make it through this without you by my side."

"I love you too. Elena. I promise I'm never going back to the ripper. I'm never going to hurt you that way again."

They kissed passionately on the lips.

They broke apart and Stefan sighed softly. "Elena, what would you do if I told you I might have found a way to get Jeremy back for you, but it would only be for a limited amount of time."

"I'd say stop teasing me because it's not funny."

"What if I said it wasn't a joke and I was serious?"

"How?"

"Bonnie might be able to do a spell and she can bring back the ghosts…the good ghosts, like Jeremy."

Elena didn't say anything for a minute. "How long?"

"24 hours…the longest, maybe less."

"Would it be like last time? I'll be able to touch him and he can touch me?"

"Should be."

Elena nodded. "Ok, what do I have to do?"

"Nothing yet, Bonnie is looking to see if it's possible. I just…I wanted you to know."

Elena nodded. "Are you going to bring back Lexi."

Stefan sighed and nodded. "I was such a jerk to her when she was back last time. Plus I need her help. I'm back to myself but that means so is the guilt and I need her help to get through it."

Elena nodded. "I understand. Do you think it will happen?"

"I don't know, Elena. I honestly don't know." Stefan sighed.

Just then there was a knock at the door. "It's Bonnie." Stefan said.

The raced downstairs and opened the door. She walked inside with a giant spell book. "It's possible. I know how to do it and it won't take much out of me. But I'll need your help."

"Just tell us what to do." Stefan said.

Bonnie sighed and sat at the table with her book open. "We are going to need a few items."

"Name them." Stefan countered thinking it was something easy like candles or water.

"I'm going to need an item that was on them before and after they died…"

Elena gasped and looked up at Stefan. He looked back at Bonnie.

"For example, did Lexie have a daylight ring that she was wearing when she died?"

Stefan shook his head. "She never had a daylight ring; she was always jealous of mine. She always complained that Katherine never liked her." He sighed. "She did have a mood ring though…" Stefan sighed and thought about their conversation before she left for the party. "I have her ring still, would that work?"

Bonnie nodded and then looked to Elena. "Elena. I'm going to need Jeremy's ring too."

"What? But…but it's all I have left. I can't…I can't give that up."

"It's the only thing you have, Elena. I'm sorry but if you don't give up the ring the spell won't work."

"What about clothes? I mean he wasn't naked when he died. He was wearing clothes."

"Elena, listen, I know it's hard. The mood ring is all I have left of Lexi, but in the end it will be worth it because we get to see them again."

"What about when they leave again?"

"He'll always be in your heart, Elena. I promise you that."

Elena sighed and nodded. "Fine" Elena pulled the ring off her finger and gave it to Bonnie. In that same instance Stefan gave Bonnie Lexi's ring.

"Now, this spell is more like a sacrifice on your part. You are giving away their items and you won't be getting them back." She sighed and placed the rings in a small brown bowl and then sprinkled some black powder on top of them. "During the spell you must each repeat their name until they are standing before us. If you lose your train of thought or think about anything else, the spell will be broken. We can only do this one time." She saw Stefan and Elena look at each other and then nod.

Bonnie took a deep breath; she placed her hand over the bowl and started to chant. "Riportarli dalla morte. Riportare in vita i morti. Dare loro il tempo nuovo, tempo di vivere" She said that over and over while the rings burst into flames inside the bowl, quickly taking over the powerful rings and turning them to black dust and ash.

The lights in the room went out and the windows shattered. In a few moments everything was dark, there wasn't even an ounce of sunlight coming from the windows. Seconds later, Bonnie gasped and she looked around. "They are here." She whispered.

Suddenly Lexi and Jeremy appeared in front of them.

"JEREMY!" Elena screamed. She ran at her bother and hugged him almost knocking him off his feet.

"Whoa!" he chuckled. "I take it your missed me."

"More than ever!"

He chuckled and kissed her head. "I missed you too."

Stefan smiled and felt a small hand on his shoulder. He looked behind him and smiled at Lexi. She nodded her head to the side. He nodded. They both walked into the other room leaving the two siblings alone.

Bonnie smiled and left the house. Her job was done.

"Elena, are you ok? I mean, I hardly remember much of what happen."

Elena nodded as they both went to sit down on the couch. "I'm fine Jer, Klaus compelled both of us. I only remember because Stefan compelled me to."

"What happen to Klaus?"

"He's dead."

"And Katherine?"

"Left town."

"So you're safe now. Nobody is after you anymore. Nobody wants you dead?"

Elena laughed. "Not that I know of."

"Good, then Mom, Dad, Jenna, John, and I can all rest easy."

"How are they?" she asked softly.

"They're all fine. Dad told me to tell you, to tell Stefan, if he ever hurts you again he's coming back with his shotgun full of wooden bullets and will blow is head off…literally."

Elena laughed. "Don't worry, Stefan won't do that again. He's promised."

"He better not. I know how to kill him." He said with a smirk.

Elena giggled and shook her head. "Don't worry, he's been taking good care of me."

"I'm glad. Look, Elena, I know I won't be here for long. So let's just get right to the point. I love you, I always will love you. Nothing can make me stop. Even though technically you're my cousin you will always be my big sister and I'll always love you but…but you've got to understand I can't come back."

Tears filled her eyes but she nodded. "I know…" she whimpered.

"But, you also need to understand that I'm happy now. I'm happier than I've been for a long time. I'm with mom and dad again. I've always wanted to be with them again. Now I am, I'm sorry it means leaving you here but just know that I'm happy. I'm not scared or sad or depressed. I'm really happy. Ok, I want you to know that. I don't want you to let this take over your life. Grieve for me but then move on. It's what we all want for you. Mom, Dad, Jenna, and even John, they all just want you to live your life the best you can. Take the time you need to, to grieve but then move on. Live your life with Stefan, help Caroline with her Matt drama…."

Elena giggled through her tears.

"Klaus is dead, now. You no longer have to worry about him. You can live your life as normal. No more worrying about anything."

Elena nodded. "I know, I love you so much Jer." She whimpered.

"I love you so much too, Elena, come here."

They two siblings shared a hug and Elena cried into his shoulder. He rubbed her back and comforted her.

After a little while they pulled away. Elena wiped her eyes. "Thanks; I really needed to hear it from you that you were happy."

"I know, it's why I came back. Oh…here." He reached into his pocket and pulled out two rings. "Mom and Dad want you to have these."

Elena smiled with tear filled eyes and took her parents wedding rings. "Thank you."

"I don't have any rings anymore for you, but I want you to have my sketch pad. I have some drawings of you and Stefan, even some of Jenna and you. I think you'll like them."

Elena smiled. "I'll take good care of it. I love you, Jeremy."

"I love you too Elena."

They shared a hug and Elena let out a deep breath. "You can…you can go back now. I'm ok."

Jeremy smiled and kissed her forehead. "I love you sis."

With that he was gone.

Elena let out a shaky breath but smiled softly. "I'm ok."

She heard footsteps and turned around. Stefan walked over to her. "Hey." He greeted.

"Hi. Did you send Lexi back?" she asked.

He nodded. "It wasn't easy but…"

"But you knew it was something you needed to do."

He nodded.

"I just did the same with Jeremy."

"Do you feel any better?"

"Honestly? Not really, it only hurts more now."

"Yeah for me too. Maybe it just takes some time."

Stefan sat down on the couch.

"I hope so. I can't handle feeling like this for much longer."

Stefan pulled her into his arms. She cuddled into his chest and they both just held each other. Both of them didn't feel any different but things were going to change right? Tomorrow they'd feel better…wouldn't they?

AN: FROM BETA: The Latin translation (Riportarli dalla morte. Riportare in vita i morti. Dare loro il tempo nuovo, tempo di vivere) means Bring them back from the dead. Bring the dead back to life. Give them time again, time to live.
