Elena? It sure looked like Elena to Bonnie, but it couldn't be possible, Elena was already dead. The inhumanly beautiful girl looked over at the group, her mouth open with surprise. What had just happened? No one could believe what lay before their eyes.
Elena was still wearing her long white gown, though now it wasn't glowing with gold light, now it was dirtied with wet mud. Damp, golden hair lay on her shoulders, drenched from the rain landing on everyone. Stefan's face, once filled with emotionless pain was now staring at what appeared to be Elena with disbelief and amazement. Elena's soft white hand reached out to touch the ground beneath her; it recoiled as soon as the wetness seeped between her fingers. Yes, it was true. Elena was alive again. The Gods had heard Stefan's cry of anguish and given mercy to the forbidden couple.
The group watched as Elena tried to get up, but she failed and fell. Stefan moved faster then the wind to reach her side before she could fall to the ground. He held her in his arms, staring into her lapis blue eyes. Hers stared back, filled with the love and pain of being separated from Stefan for so long.
"I've missed you, Stefan," she whispered softly.
A small smile appeared on Stefan's face, his usually unemotional face was 2glowing with the love he felt for Elena.
"I love you, Elena."
Tears flowed down her flawless face. Stefan took off the ring he had on his necklace and placed it on Elena's dainty finger.
"Marry me Elena, so we can never be apart again."
Her face dawned with realisation; Elena could finally marry Stefan now that she was presumably dead. She nodded, she hair flying wildly around her face.
"Yes, Stefan. I will marry you, then I'll be by your side forever."
She smiled up at him, her lips glistening from the rain that was still falling.
The others came up to the pair looking questioningly between Stefan and Elena. Elena lifted her left hand up, silently, with an overjoyed smile on her face. There was an awkward silence as the group eyed the lapis ring on her finger.
" Elena…is getting married?" Asked Caroline, breaking the silence.
"Yes," answered Stefan stiffly. "To me."
