After they had packed their things they left immediately. Elena put her arm outside the window as they were droving on the highway. She loved to feel the air on her skin it was kind of refreshing. It was a pretty hot day and Stefan wore a sleeveless shirt and when Elena lurked over to him she could see his abs perfectly. Ed Sheeran's give me love came in the radio and Elena turned it louder. She remembered when she and Stefan danced to that song. She closed her eyes and enjoyed this memory for a while.
All I want is the taste that your lips allow my my, my my oh give me love.
She looked over to Stefan who smiled slightly and she knew he thought the same. She couldn't take her eyes off of him for a while. It was magical. It seemed like she could see right through his skin into his soul. She smiled brighter. They drove off of the highway the lake house was only a few more miles away. They hadn't really talked much when they drove, Elena was scared she could say something wrong. Finally they had reached their destination. It still looked the same as when they had come here 7 years ago. After Elijah had kinda destroyed parts of the house Stefan and Elena had been fixing defects.
"You ready for this?" Stefan asked and turned to Elena.
Elena nodded. "Yeah, I am."
They took their stuff and went into the house. Like I said it was pretty hot so Elena changed into a summery dress and went to the wood bridge behind the lake house. She closed her eyes and enjoyed letting the sun shine on her skin. It was such a pure, perfect moment and she wanted to capture all of it. The moment was interrupted when she heard Stefan coming out of the house. The turned around and gasped before turning around again as quickly as she could. Before she did she had seen Stefan in a swimming trunk. God, he had gotten even more gorgous and strong.
Stefan knew what she was thinking and used her moment of jumpiness to push his body in her direction with all his strength. His body hit against her and they both fell into the ice cold water. Elena screamed but her scream became a loud bright laughter after a second.
"Are you crazy?" Elena shouted through her laughter. Even as a vampire she wasn't really the swimming type.
"I don't know maybe. Are you?" Stefan laughed and came closer. He put Elena's legs around his waist and laid his hands onto her hips. Their faces were only inches apart.
Elena put her arms around his neck. For a moment they just stayed in this position in the water but suddenly this perfect moment turned into pure lust and desire. "My dress is ruined." Elena whispered, her voice almost broke. Their faces came closer.
"Hm, you can always take it off." Stefan whispered and winked.
That was it. Elena couldn't hold it anymore. She came closer and their noses practically touched. All the pain of the past few days was gone. She didn't feel it anymore. Not because she didn't want to feel it but because all she could feel was Stefan.
And that was the moment when their lips finally touched. For the first time in 5 years. It was light and gentle, simply perfect. Stefan pulled away and looked deep into Elena's eyes before leaning in again. This time it was more passionate, more agressive. Within less that a second they were out of the water and Elena found herself in the living room.
Stefan lifted her up and pushed her against the wall. They were still soaking wet but neither of them cared. Stefan did torn up Elena's dress completely so it was completely ruined now but they didn't care about the dress either. Both could only think about each other lips and body's. The sire bond, the pain, being apart, that was all long gone. Elena was sure, she never wanted to spend another day apart from Stefan. He was all she wanted, all she needed.
Elena kissed his neck and worked her way down to his strong chest. He pushed them onto the couch and Elena chuckled.
Stefan pulled away and stoke a strand of her hair from her face. "I love you." He whispered.
"I love you." She said before they went back to- Well you probably know to what.
