Elena- Dear Diary,

After I woke up, I decided to stay in Mystic Falls. There was nowhere else I'd lived before and nowhere else I'd rather be. Damon and I continued dating for a few months, and I was beyond happy. Given our recent situation, I most certainly wasn't in a rush for anything. Although I did wonder if and when he would pop the question. No matter I was happy either way.

Damon- I decided to ask for advice from my friends. I was going to propose to Elena, but I was nervous. Why was I so nervous? Nothing has ever scared me before. Maybe it's because I'm human now. Damn emotions!

I went over to the new school Alaric and Caroline opened up to ask them. Caroline told me to do it, Micheal Scott, from the Office style. I asked her what the Hell that meant, and she said to just cover the entire living room with lighted candles. Doesn't sound too complicated. Alaric told me there was nothing to be nervous about. It's a normal feeling to have, and he would know. He's only asked three women to marry him.

I decided that tonight was the night. My emotions won't get the best of me. I have to learn to love the doubt.

Elena- Dear Diary,

I'M ENGAGED! Damon asked me last night! It was perfect. He tried to propose as Micheal Scott did to Holly, but he almost burned the house down with so many candles. I thought it was sweet. I could tell he was nervous by the way he was fumbling and stammering.

I told Caroline the moment I woke up this morning. She's helping with the planning. She's great at that. I also called Bonnie and told her she would be my bridesmaid. I'm so excited for the wedding! I'm thinking it'll be in the spring or summer.

Damon- Dear Diary,

I know diaries are stupid, but today I made an exception. Today was one of the happiest most important days of my life. May 14th, 2018 was the day I married the love of my life. Walking down that aisle, Elena looked so beautiful, and I couldn't believe she said yes. I was the luckiest man on the planet. I'm finally married! It only took almost 200 years! I'd wait for another 200 if I knew who I'd be waiting on though.

The only good thing about me is Elena. I can't wait to see what the rest of our future holds. I have to spend as much time with her as I can now. Once we're both dead we're going different ways. She'll be with all of her friends and my brother. I'm going the other way. Once we're done here I'll never see Elena and Stefan ever again.
