AN: Thanks sooo much for all the review, alerts, and favorites. It's been a fun ride. Only an epilogue left after this.
Another turning point,
A fork stuck in the road.
Time grabs you by the wrist,
Directs you where to go.
So make the best of this test
and don't ask why.
It's not a question,
but a lesson learned in time.
"That's one hell of a story. I'm just glad you remember everything." Damon says, from the liquor cart.
"I disposed of the bodies." Dante says, walking into the room with glassy eyes. Alex looks around at each of us hesitantly. When his eyes lock with mine I nod. He jumps up and appears in front of Dante, pulling him into a hug.
"I'm so sorry." Alex mumbles, with his head on Dante's shoulder. His tears finally fall and the sobs break loose as he returns Alex's embrace.
"It's alright. It's over now." Alex says, running his fingers through Dante's hair.
"I love you." Alex whispers so quietly that only a vampire would hear. Dante pulls back to look at him in amazement. He laces his fingers with Alex's and they take a seat on the couch.
"So um...your..." Stefan stutters, not knowing how to approach the subject.
"In love with Dante, yes." He says proudly.
"I'm glad your happy." Stefan says, squeezing his shoulder. "And I'm glad your both happy as well." He says, turning to Elena and Damon.
"That's all I ever wanted." He adds.
"I can't believe you're here." Elena says. Damon squeezes her hand and smiles at Stefan.
"Well I am. And this time I'm here to stay." Stefan says, smiling.
