Oh, like I'm anywhere near as bad as you, Mr. I Almost Died of Werewolf Poisoning Twice. We're both apparently too important for the universe to kill.

[ if elena has anything to say about it, there won't be any guilt -- what do they have to feel guilty for? being in love? she refuses to feel guilty about that -- she wasted enough of her time feeling guilty for loving damon, she's not going to waste any more of it the same way. yes, she feels bad for not telling caroline, but up until now there hasn't been anything to tell her. stefan's not even here, it's not like they would hurt him by being together.

she's perfectly happy to stay close to him, beaming, too full of joy to contain herself. even when he's being ridiculous and she rolls her eyes, there's no venom in it, just fondness. ]

Why would I ever want to take that back? I love you, Damon. I've loved you for months, I've loved you the entire time I've been here and I'm tired of biting my tongue whenever I want to say it. I'm not sorry I love you, and I don't feel guilty about it, and I'm not ever going to want to take it back.

[ too bad for damon elena likes gooey reunions. ]
