ELENA: I don’t know what I want.
DAMON: Well that’s not true. You want what everybody wants.
ELENA: What? Mysterious stranger who has all the answers.
DAMON: Hmm. Well, let’s just say I’ve been around a long time. I’ve learned a few things.
ELENA: So Damon, tell me. What is it that I want?
DAMON: You want a love that consumes you. You want passion, and adventure and even a little danger.
ELENA: So, what do you want? It’s my parents.
DAMON: I want you to get everything you’re looking for. Right now I want you to forget that this happened, can’t have people knowing I’m in town yet. Goodnight Elena.

I was supposed to grow up. Decide if I want to have kids and start a family. Grow old. I was supposed to have a lifetime of those choices, and now it’s all gone. I don’t want to be a vampire. I never wanted to be one.

I’ve been holding on to the girl that was supposed to die here with her parents.

Maybe if you and I had met first…
