A/N Sorry for being gone for so long. I got a tumblr, and am now addicted to it. Anyway, there is one more chapter, so review if you want me to post that soon! If I get enough reviews, I will post it tomorrow! Anyway, enjoy.
Chapter 38 Revealing
When I woke up the next morning, I decided I should tell Jenna the truth. If I waited any longer, I wouldn't feel confident enough.
"Jenna?" I asked walking into her room
"Yeah?" She said. She was finishing up making her bed, and when she finished, she sat down and patted beside her for me to join her.
"There's something I need to tell you. I know that you might not believe me at first, but it's all true." I said and watched that small piece of information sink in for her.
"Go one"
I told her everything. I told her how Katherine kidnapped me and how she told me about my past. I told her about me wanting to change, and the ring I had to wear. I told her about Stefan and Damon, Caroline, and even Bonnie. When I was done spilling my guts, the look on her face was undescribable.
"This is what you have been keeping from me." She said as a fact.
"Yes, and Jenna, I'm so sorry for lying to you, and I promise that it won't happen again." I said. I didn't want her to be mad at me.
"I understand why you kept it a secret, and I'm not mad at you."
"You aren't?" I asked, actually surprised at what she was saying.
"No, but Elena, I want you to know that you can tell me anything. Even things like this. The only thing I am annoyed about is that I didn't let you know that." She said, and this moment was really playing out perfectly.
I didn't tell her about Stevon, and I wasn't about to either, but I knew I should.
"I know that everyone has secrets, and I'm not telling you I'll be mad if you don't give every single detail up, but no teenager should have to hold a secret like that."
"Wow." I said. "That is probably the best thing you could have said right now."
"The parenting books worked." She said with a look of success on her face.
I laughed and got up to leave.
"Thanks, Jenna"
"Anytime."
I went to my room and checked what Katherine was doing.
'Hey. Where are you?'
'Mason and me are watching a movie.' I heard her reply back. I was really surprised at how well everything was working out for her, but she deserved it,
'I'll leave you two alone then.'
'See you later?'
'Yeah'
'Maybe we could get together with Caroline or something. Her and Tyler hooked up.'
'They did?' I asked her, shocked at the news.
'Yeah, well, see you later.'
'Okay'
I got dressed and went to Caroline's house. I knocked on the door and she answered.
"You and Tyler?" I asked shocked
"Hello to you too."
"Caroline, this is great news. Great news I heard from Katherine and not you. What's up with that?" I asked but I wasn't really mad.
"Well, last night, Mason and her were at the Lockwood's house, and we came home, and they kinda' caught us in the moment." Caroline said, and I have never seen her look so awkward.
I started laughing.
"They just saw you kissing, right?"
"Yeah, but it was really awkward."
"Well, at least you two are together now." I said "What are you doing tonight?"
"Hanging out with Tyler. Why? Did you want to do something?"
"No, I was just wondering. I'm gonna' run, but I'll see you later." I said
"Bye."
I didn't really want to go home, so I went to see Damon. He must have heard me, because the door was opened before I could grab the handle.
"Hey." He said when he saw me. I kissed him full on and he wrapped his arms around my waist.
"Good morning." I said
"It is?" He asked
I nodded. "I told Jenna. About me, and you, and everyone else." I said
"And it turned out well?"
"She was surprisingly calm about the whole thing. I think she's just glad to be clued into the whole thing."
"I owe you an apology." He said sitting down on the couch and pulling me into his lap.
"Why?" I asked, genuinly confused.
"You were right. Everything turned out okay. Sure there will be problems, but you becoming a vampire was the right thing." He said and kissed me on the forehead. "I love you so much, Elena. You have no idea."
"Yes I do." I said turning to kiss him.
"What now?" He asked, and I knew he didn't mean what are we doing tonight.
"Now, we go back to our lives. School starts in September. Caroline and I are going to graduate, and then we can all go somewhere. Somewhere sunny. How ironic is that?" I asked smiling at the idea.
"Florida?" He asked
"Or Texas."
"We have forever to think about that though." He said
"Year, literally." I laughed.
"We have the rest of our lives." He whispered and even though I knew what he meant, that still brought a smile to my face, because forever didn't really exist. Eventually, everything would end, but we had right now, and that's really all that mattered, and I knew that's what he meant. Sure, we didn't have mind communication like Katherine and I, but I knew exactly what was going through his head.
"However long they may be." I said and kissed him again.
