"He did what?" asked Caroline.
"He told me he loved me," replied Elena.
Caroline, Elena, and Bonnie where all sitting in Elena's room, talking about the events that had taken place the night before.
"I still can't believe you two didn't notice that he was in love with Elena. I mean, a blind man could see it," said Bonnie, picking at the carpet.
"Gee, thanks, Bonnie. That makes me feel even worse."
Bonnie only shrugged, and continue to fiddle with the carpet.
Caroline gave her a disgusted look before she said, "Stefan told you that he loves you early that day, right?" Her face was full of excitement as she waited for Elena to answer.
Elena smiled shyly. "Yeah, he did."
Caroline and Elena began to squeal, but Bonnie only rolled her eyes.
"I don't get what's so great about Stefan. What does he have to offer that Damon can't?" She ceased her fidgeting with the carpet, and fixed the other two girls with a stare Elena was sure could melt ice.
Caroline was the first to speak. "Uh, it's Damon. He's manipulative and rude!"
"Well, if we're going to point out flaws..."
"Will you two stop?" Elena said, her fists clenched on her lap.
"Oh, Elena. You know I think that Damon is a great friend to you. I just don't think he's boyfriend material." Caroline put a hand on Elena's shoulder. "And Stefan is totally your Augustus to your Hazel."
Bonnie cringed. "You know, I never really liked that movie. I think my favorite scene is when they're on the couch watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer."
Elena smiled. "Yeah, doesn't Augustus die?"
Caroline rolled her eyes. "Fine, he's your Prince Eric to your Ariel."
"Did you know that in the original story of The Little Mermaid the prince ends up marrying another women, and the mermaid dies and turns to sea foam?" said Bonnie.
Caroline began getting frustrated. "You have to ruin everything, don't you, Bonnie?"
"No, I agree with you. It's never gonna work between Stefan and Elena. To include to the mix, I'll compare them to few other couples."
Bonnie began naming off couples and explaining why it didn't work out between them.
"Edward and Kim from Edward Scissorhands. They couldn't be together because everyone thought Edward was a monster, and Kim told everyone he was dead to protect him. Romeo and Juliet. They both died at the end of the play. Angel and Buffy, Buffy the Vampire Slayer. That entire relationship was extremely messy from the beginning. Do I need to continue?"
Elena looked down at her hands. "No, Bonnie, you don't need to continue."
"Look, Elena, it's not that Stefan isn't a great guy, it's just that I believe that Damon is the better match for you. He's my friend, too, and I think he deserves a shot."
"Bonnie, I told Stefan that I'm falling in love with him."
Bonnie's and Caroline's eyes grew huge, and their mouths hung open.
"Well, this changes everything!" A grin spread across Caroline's face.
