I know people say Elena leaving was the reason why the vampire diaries went downhill do you agree or disagree with that what's your opinion ?
If anything, I will say the last two seasons suffered from the plot not letting Elena go and giving too much focus on her coffin situation. Nina had left for a reason, allow Elena to not be so focused on the character's motives. Why is Damon worried about disappointing Elena? She's in a coffin, sleep, let her be lmao. Why does Bonnie have to constantly live in regret in some moments that she's still alive? They could've created some really nice core four moments between Steroline/Bamon honestly. Let the Salvatore's grow without Elena. Let Baroline exist and flourish. Give us the friendship moments! Make Bamon canon maybe? Belvafore could’ve outsold. Edit: Kai could’ve stayed on, taking him out in s6 was a total waste. I’m sorry keeping Enzo… no lol.
I personally don't think Nina leaving is the reason for the show going downhill the way that it did. The show suffered from the writer's playing favoritism and creating certain plotlines that were so heavily centered on those characters. Ngl, there's plenty of moments where the show feels like it's the Damon show and sometimes it’s Caroline's show(post s6..).
To end this off the reason why I don't blame Elena is simply because in season 6, Elena really lacked a purpose in that season. Bamon/Bonkai OWNED that season. Elena didn't really have a memorable moment to me and a main character should never feel that way but she did. They didn't have anything for her to do besides be Damon's GF. Though despite the messy plotlines TVD has way more reply value than TO does for me even when theirs certain plotlines that’s irritating as fuck lmao.
Yes! Stefan is such a wallflower lol. Didn’t Caroline and Damon make fun of Stefan’s lack of friends? XD Like I know people keeps on complaining the lack of stefonnie friendship but i think there’s a reason why they don’t interact at all, their personality don’t mesh well. Meanwhile Damon/Bonnie are great friends because Damon’s an extrovert so i think it is same with Bonnie too.
I don't know how Stefan and Bonnie's personalties would mesh because I saw little of them together. 🤔
Thank god for Bamon though. Damon and Bonnie's friendship was one of my favorite things about the last 3 seasons. It was refreshing and it balanced Steroline out well. I'm Team Belvafore all the way.
TVD 9x17 - I will love you forever (part 1) Enjoy! =)
Cut to – Caroline and Stefan’s room, early morning. They are lying in bed, cuddling.
CAROLINE: I love you Stefan Salvatore…
STEFAN: I love you Caroline Forbes… (they kiss).
CAROLINE: You know, I was wrong about a June wedding; nothing is more perfect than getting married with the first winter’s snow.
STEFAN: It does give it some kind of wonderful… But we might freeze our asses off.
CAROLINE: You do know who you are married to, right? Nothing to worry about, I took care of that.
STEFAN: (Smiles) Sorry, guess I forgot that for a minute. Listen, Care, I want to give you something (gets out of bed, opens his desk drawer, jumps back in bed, and hands her a gift).
CAROLINE: Stefan! You cheated; we said no gifts!
STEFAN: We said no buying gifts, and I didn’t buy anything; so, fair play (smirks). Now, open it.
CAROLINE: (Un able to hide the excitement) Fine, but I’m getting you back for this… (opens the box, inside, his diary). Stefan... I can’t accept this… this is like your soul.
STEFAN: Exactly; and there is no other person in the world I would rather share it with. Read the last entry…
CAROLINE: (As she reads, each one of his words penetrates deep inside; she can’t help but cry). It’s beautiful… I don’t even have the words to express just how beautiful it is… Thank you
(leans in and kisses him; whispers to his ear) I will love you forever, and ever…
STEFAN: (Caresses her face) Thank you for showing me what love is… (they hold each other, no need for more words, their heartbeat and breath say it all. They knew how fortunate they were to find each other, even more, to have been given a second chance. They make love, until they realize they are running out of time if they want to make it to their wedding on time).
Cut to – Damon and Bonnie taking a shower.
DAMON: So, Bon, I was wondering; what’s your take on brick versus stone walls?
BONNIE: Uhm, okay… that was random.
DAMON: Just asking for a friend…
BONNIE: Really?
DAMON: Iker’s got this whole home improvement thing going on, and I thought it would be better to have a woman’s perspective.
BONNIE: Well, I feel like you can’t go wrong with stone; it’s very organic.
DAMON: I thought the same. See, Bon, great minds think alike (winks).
BONNIE: (Teasing) Should I be worried that Damon Salvatore is asking me about home décor?
DAMON: (Smirks) Start worrying if I ask you about scented candles…
Cut to – Augustus’s underground facility. Darius is analyzing the test tube sent by Pietro a few days earlier. Augustus walks in.
AUGUSTUS: You have to admit, my lab is much better equipped than yours ever was.
DARIUS: No argument there; this place is out of this world. Looks like Santa came early this year; I feel like a boy with a bunch of new toys.
AUGUSTUS: Just remember, some are look but don’t touch. Stick to your expert field, and leave me to mine.
DARIUS: Don’t worry, even if I wanted to, I wouldn’t even know what to do with half of the things you have going on here.
AUGUSTUS: I’ll show you a little bit more when we have time. We have other things to focus on right now. What’s the status on your assigned project; can we move to phase 3 on this? I’m getting a lot of pressure on the timeline.
DARIUS: Well, they did a great job with the isolation process, but we need to test some more with the enhancements. So far, I haven’t been able to completely stabilize it, and we’ve lost four subjects already. I need more time, and documentation on the original formula so I can trace it’s evolution, see if it has something to do with that.
AUGUSTUS: Should have said that from the start. The formula was first created by Greyson; it was part of the Augustine project. He was trying to make a serum that could modify DNA structures, so that cells would mutate and attack any disease; sort of like a miracle drug. Very ambitious, but as you can see, he failed. In my opinion, he just didn’t have the right vision and motive to take it to the next level. (He opens a safe box and takes out a bunch of files and notes) Here, these are his observation logs, they might be helpful.
DARIUS: I’m sure they will. Question, why was it taken to Germany, why not isolate it here? You have more than the tech and equipment needed. Moving it around without proper logistics might have caused the alterations.
AUGUSTUS: It was stolen a couple of weeks ago. Someone, obviously from the inside, managed to take it out of the lab and put it in one of the Gilbert girl’s moving boxes, that’s how it ended up in Munich. Thankfully, it happened to be a fortunate mistake. Pietro’s team were the ones that were able to isolate it. The team here had been trying for months without success, so I had to fire all of them, on both counts, ineptitude and security breach. Reasons why you have no teammates.
DARIUS: I work better alone, so it’s fine by me.
AUGUSTUS: Well, you have some background now, think you can pull this off?
DARIUS: Dr. Gilbert was good, but he was a Medical Doctor, and not nearly as good a Scientist as I am. Biogenetics is my thing; and I’m a wizard with serums; I’ll get it done, but I need more time.
AUGUSTUS: I’ll buy you as much time as I can, but I can’t promise it will be much.
DARIUS: I can work with that. What about Edward?
AUGUSTUS: What about him?
DARIUS: Are you positive he won’t cause us any trouble?
AUGUSTUS: He won’t, I made sure of that.
DARIUS: And, when the time comes, are you sure you can make the right choice?
AUGUSTUS: Darius, unlike you, I don’t let my emotions get in the way of a higher purpose. He and The Madame made a choice, and they’ll have to own up to their decisions. But he is my son, so I sure hope he makes the right call.
DARIUS: And the Hernandez kid?
AUGUSTUS: Is that supposed to be a joke? The Hernandez are a legacy, but he doesn’t own up to the name. We got nothing to worry about. He’s just a rich kid taking advantage of daddy’s influence. The only reason I let him “work” here for a while is because I was doing a solid for my friend; same reason he got into the Munich program. Trust me, the boy is harmless.
DARIUS: I thought you were into conspiracy theories; connect the dots. This kid “worked” here, he dates the Gilbert girl, and they both ended up in Germany, which just happened to be where the test tube was found… coincidence? I think not.
AUGUSTUS: (Sarcastic laugh) I love myself a good conspiracy, but this one has too many flaws. First, he “worked” in Admin, no way I would ever let him near my toys. Second, the test tube had a tracking device, only a highly tech savvy individual would know how to disable it. That is how we know that whoever took it has an IQ above 100, which he clearly doesn’t; it’s not just me saying it, it is literally in his records. I understand why you would come to that conclusion, those are incredible odds, but you are giving a couple of wannabe Doctors way too much credit; plus the evidence just doesn’t match.
DARIUS: Doesn’t it bother you that whoever stole the formula is still at large. Figure you would want to get to the bottom of it; make sure they don’t try to pull anything else.
AUGUSTUS: Oh, we’ll find them, I have my best team on it, it’s just a matter of time. And when they do, I feel sorry for the poor soul who attempted to outsmart us; they are about to be the lab rat in one of my most ambitious experiments; not going to be pretty.
DARIUS: Judging from what I’ve seen so far, I wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy.
AUGUSTUS: Neither would I, but, consequences. Anyway, I have my own projects to attend to; let me know if you need anything.
DARIUS: As long as you are offering, an audio system to play music while I work would be nice.
AUGUSTUS: You might be a Scientific genius, but you haven’t the slightest idea when it comes to technology. What music do you want?
DARIUS: Beethoven is always my choice for inspiration.
AUGUSTUS: (Gives a voice command) “Little Edward, play my Beethoven playlist”
LITTLE EDWARD: “Yes, daddy” (The music starts to play).
AUGUSTUS: (Winks, sarcastically) God bless technology. See you at our 12pm briefing; don’t be late this time.
DARIUS: I won’t. (To himself, looking at the ai robot) God, that thing really freaks me out...
Cut to – A few hours later, Caroline’s room. Bonnie and Elena are helping her to get ready.
CAROLINE: This is perfect! I’m so happy we had a do over so we could all be together!
BONNIE: And with out Katherine sabotaging the whole thing this time around.
CAROLINE: Well, there is still a possibility for that, I invited her.
ELENA: Are you crazy?!!! Why would you do that??!!!
CAROLINE: Bygones… I promised myself I would be the better person. Plus, we have to admit, she really has changed. I mean, don’t get me wrong, she is still a bitch, but there’s nothing we can do about that; it’s a trademark of her personality.
ELENA: Hate to say it, but I guess you have a point. We’ve all done horrible things, there are a lot of grey areas in our world. All we can do is try to be better, and stop dwelling on the past. As much as I despise her, I’m no better.
BONNIE: That’s a stretch; but I get what you’re saying.
CAROLINE: It’s crazy to think just how far we’ve come… How much we have gained… and lost… Feels like yesterday we were three innocent small-town girls, clueless about what laid ahead. We’ve been through a lot, but no matter how painful, or how much things change, we always stick together. I love you guys so much, thank you for being here.
BONNIE: I think that calls for a group hug! (They tear up, hug and laugh it out).
ELENA: God, I miss you guys so much! It’s gonna be hard going back.
CAROLINE: I want to be selfish and say don’t; but we love you too much to hold you back.
ELENA: (Smiles) I know. Just promise you will come visit me soon.
BONNIE: We promise.
ELENA: (Looks around to make sure they are alone) Guys, now that we have some privacy, I really need to tell you something… it involves Stefan and Damon, but I wanted you to be the ones to tell them.
CAROLINE: Elena, you are officially freaking me out, what’s going on?
ELENA: This is going to sound crazy, and that’s because it is… Turns out that the head of my medical program is called Pietro Salvatore. So, naturally I was intrigued. After some digging, and an unpleasant encounter, it was confirmed that he is in fact Damon and Stefan’s half-brother. Ironically, he is also a vampire, and not a good one. He’s sketchy as hell… Sorry I didn’t tell you guys before, but I really needed to do it in person, and sober.
CAROLINE: What?!!!! That is insane!
ELENA: I know! I mean, they new their dad had an illegitimate child, that’s how Zachary came to be; but I’m guessing never in their wildest dreams they would have thought he would also turn out to be a vampire; or that his mother would be a Petrova.
CAROLINE: What?!!!! A Petrova??!! Are you kidding me!!! (Pauses for a moment) … Wouldn’t that make you…
ELENA: Please, let’s not even attempt to go there. Now you can understand why I didn’t want to tell them myself. I think it’s best you are the ones that deliver the news, when you think the time is right.
BONNIE: Freakiness aside; the possibilities of you meeting this mysterious Salvatore sibling, on the other side of the pond, and him being the head of your program, can’t be a coincidence.
ELENA: I’m sure it’s not. When I got to Germany there was a black box in one of my moving boxes, inside was this weird test tube. I’m pretty sure it has something to do with that, and somehow my dad is involved… Not sure how this is all connected, but there is definitely an agenda.
BONNIE: Do you know what is in the test tube?
ELENA: Some kind of serum, a friend of Sam’s tested it, but she couldn’t figure out what it was. Whatever it is, it’s in Pietro’s hands now.
CAROLINE: Judging from what you’ve told us, that can’t be good.
ELENA: Sam and I have a plan; we’ll get it back.
BONNIE: Elena, you are human now, you can’t be taking those kinds of risks.
ELENA: It’s fine, we have someone on the inside. (Sarcastically) So much for moving away from all the drama; seems to follow me everywhere I go.
BONNIE: We know the feeling. It’s like being in the mob; once you are in, there is no way out.
CAROLINE: Guess it was too good to be true to have my wedding without incident. What should we do?
BONNIE: Enjoy your wedding! Today is about you; we can figure this out tomorrow.
CAROLINE: Really? But this is huge…
BONNIE: So is your wedding. Nothing is going to happen if we wait for one day.
ELENA: I agree with Bon. Hate that I had to bring it up now, but I needed you to know what was going on.
CAROLINE: We understand, and we’re sorry you got dragged back into the drama.
ELENA: Guess I’m a sucker for drama; and I’m used to it by now. In a way, I did miss the thrill of it all.
BONNIE: Just be careful, and let us know if you need back up.
ELENA: I will, promise. Now, we have to hurry up if we want the bride to be ready in time!
Cut to – Damon’s room. Stefan and Damon are having a bro moment, while Damon “attempts” to help him get ready; he seems more focused on pouring bourbon than on his brother’s tux.
DAMON: Little brother, I have to ask, given the results of your previous wedding to Barbie, why in god’s name would you invite the psychotic doppelgänger this time around?
STEFAN: Want to hear something crazy? It was actually Caroline who insisted we invite her; and I was not about to get in between of what ever is going on there.
DAMON: That’s smart of you, but you might want to get your wife’s head checked out.
STEFAN: We have to admit though, evil side a part, she’s quite fun to have around.
DAMON: No one is debating that. But still, this is Katherine we are talking about.
STEFAN: I’m sure it will be fine. Now, on to another subject, care to explain to me your recent obsession over home décor?
DAMON: Let me guess, you talked to Bonnie?
STEFAN: (Smirks) I did… So, what’s that about? First the land scouting, and now you are asking about brick vs. stone walls?
DAMON: I’m just trying to help a friend out.
STEFAN: You might have bonded in Vegas, but you think I’m buying your “I’m building a cottage for Kai” story? And, you really need to get your stories straight, is it Kai or Iker?
DAMON: (Knowing he’s been caught and there is no way for him to wiggle his way out) First, let’s get one thing straight, Kai and I did not bond in any way or form; I found him tolerable; that’s all. Second, I never expected Bonnie to tell you about our shower talk!
STEFAN: Yeah, she didn’t tell me it was in the shower; and that’s way too much information.
DAMON: Well, you started it! (They laugh)
STEFAN: Come on, Damon, I know I can be a bit of a slip sometimes, but I promise I will keep my lips sealed!
DAMON: (Hesitant) Okay… but I swear, Stefan, if you so much as let a vowel out, I will send your right back to “deceased” status!
STEFAN: (Teasing) Pinky swear.
DAMON: And don’t act like you haven’t talked to Barbie about your suspicions; she’s been acting all peeping Tom around me; and I’m pretty sure she’s been lurking in my room. That woman needs some boundaries!
STEFAN: That’s because she doesn’t trust you with the task. Judging from your room, can you blame her?
DAMON: I happen to have exquisite taste! I’m surprised this room hasn’t been published in Hello magazine; give it time, you’ll see.
STEFAN: Just to be on the safe side; I have some good intel so you can stop asking Bonnie the most random questions, which will definitely get you caught eventually.
DAMON: What intel? Spill!
STEFAN: (Goes to one of Bonnie’s drawers) My sources say that there is something in here you need to see…
DAMON: Wow, wow, wow, Stefan; ever heard of privacy?
There’s no way in hell I’m going through Bonnie’s things. Boundaries, bro!
STEFAN: I know, I know…but you really need to see what’s inside. Caroline already agreed to take the blame; she was the one that snooped and found it in the first place.
DAMON: What is “it” ?
STEFAN: Well, you’ll never know if you don’t see…
DAMON: Fine, fine! But this is all on Care Bare! If I get into any kind of trouble with Bon over this, it’s her head on the platter!
STEFAN: (Teasing) I’ll cut it myself.
DAMON: (Opens the drawer, and just above the surface, lies the holy grail… He takes the scrapbook out, and looks through it. He is extremely touched by the innocence and beauty that lies within… This was the love of his life, no doubt. As he turns the pages, he can’t help but smile, spit out a laugh, get teary eyed) God… I love her…
STEFAN: I know you do, that’s why Caroline knew you had to see that. All jokes aside, I’m extremely proud of you, brother. You have come a long way, and I can’t think of a better wedding gift than seeing you this happy. And, at the risk of sounding corny, I am positive you will build her the most beautiful home, not only for it’s décor, but because it will be made out of pure love…
DAMON: Thank you, brother. I love you; and nothing makes me happier than seeing you happy too.
STEFAN: Thank you… I love you too (they hug).
Now, if you can get back to your best man duties, I’m running low on bourbon (hands him his glass; teases) I’m at a high risk to start ugly crying and we can’t have any of that; don’t want to spoil my hero hair.
(They laugh, reminisce, and drink bourbon as they prep for the big moment).
Cut to – Kai’s cottage. Someone knocks.
KAI: (Opens the door) Ric! What a surprise! I would have never expected you would ever be knocking on this door. Come on in!
(They walk inside) Want some tea? Or some cookies? I was just about to make cookies! Or both, you can have both!
(Starts nervous rambling, he was definitely not expecting that visit) Gotta love some tea and cookies! I have milk too...uhm, but maybe it’s gone bad, let me check… Maybe some OJ instead? Yeah, but that doesn’t mix well with cookies…
ALARIC: Kai! I’m fine, thank you. I’m going to make this quick. The reason I’m here… and for the life of me I still can’t understand how or why, but I made a promise and I intend to keep it.
KAI: Ric, don’t mean to be rude, but you are not making much sense.
ALARIC: Do you have a tux?
KAI: Not sure if that’s a trick question, but no.
ALARIC: (Takes a deep breath) Well, you’re gonna need one.
KAI: Is that another trick question?
ALARIC: That wasn’t a question. Anyway, what I came here to say is that Vegas changed some perspectives for me. Granted our state of mind didn’t help, or the fact that you got married like a princess and I walked you down the aisle, but I saw something in you, something I hadn’t seen before. Which is understandable given the circumstances, but now I get what Jo was trying to tell me the other night…
KAI: Again, not trying to be rude, but are you drunk?
ALARIC: Maybe a little, but that’s not the point. I’m ready.
KAI: Should I call Damon? I’m really starting to worry about you… Plus, shouldn’t you be at a wedding right about now?
ALARIC: (Taking Kai completely by surprise) I forgive you Kai. I’m choosing to believe you, to give you a second chance; and although I don’t want my children to know who you are, I am willing to take a first step and allow you to be around them. Maybe, someday, even let you get to know them… you are their uncle after all. Then again, you tried to kill them, so you can understand the hesitation. But, for now, baby steps; we’ll just have to take it one day at a time.
KAI: (In shock at the words he just heard, without prior notice, begins to genuinely cry)
Ric… I…I…I have no words, but I would give my life, my soul, whatever is left of it, to be able to show you just how sorry I am, and how much I’ve really changed. I know I’m weird, there’s really not much I can do about that, but I swear I will never hurt anyone again, let alone your children. And I know words don’t mean anything, but tell me what to do to prove it, and I will do it, no questions, no hesitation.
ALARIC: For now, words are enough… they do matter when you really mean them; and I’m choosing to believe you mean what you are saying. Only time will tell if your actions do good by your words.
KAI: I will fight every day to prove it to you.
ALARIC: Wouldn’t expect anything less. Now, and I’m sure I will regret this, like I said, you need a tux. I’ll lend you one, but I swear I will kill you if you damage it in any way.
KAI: I won’t, pinky swear! But I still don’t get it, why do I need a tux? I’m perfectly fine with plaid, oldie but goodie!
ALARIC: Because Caroline would kill you, and me, if you show up at her wedding looking like that.
KAI: Wait… are you implying what I think you are implying?
ALARIC: Aren’t you supposed to be some kind of genius? I think you can figure it out. Come on, hurry up, Caroline will kill us both if we are late, no matter what we are wearing! I’ll get you the tux from my car (as he is about to head out, Kai hugs him. It’s awkward at first, but somehow, Ric finally eases into it).
KAI: Thank you gor giving me a chance… I promise I won’t let you down.
ALARIC: Baby steps. Action number one, getting to this wedding on time.
Cut to – Caroline’s room. The girls are doing the final touches to head to the ceremony.
CAROLINE: (Looking at the mirror) Well, I think I’m ready…
BONNIE: Almost; but there’s still one thing missing… (looks at Elena in complicity, they’re up to something).
CAROLINE: (Looking up and down at herself) I’m pretty sure I have everything covered. I’m not going with the whole something borrowed stuff.
ELENA: We know, but you are still missing an essential piece.
CAROLINE: Guys? Come on, what is this about?
BONNIE: I had to pull some strings, but we couldn’t let you get married again, without a piece of your heart… (someone opens the door).
SHERIFF FORBES: Hello, beautiful…
CAROLINE: (Looking at her reflection through the mirror, in total disbelief; turns around) Mom?
SHERIFF FORBES: (Smiles) It’s me, baby… Wouldn’t miss this for the world…
CAROLINE: Oh, my god… Mommy! (They run into each other’s arms, tears pouring down their eyes).
CAROLINE: How is this possible?
SHERIFF FORBES: You should ask Bonnie that.
BONNIE: Like I said, I had to pull some strings, but this will only work for one night.
CAROLINE: (To Bonnie) I would have given anything for just a minute. Nothing will ever be enough to show you just how grateful I am to you…
BONNIE: You already have, with that smile…
We’ll give you ladies some privacy, but before we leave, I need a hug! (She hugs Sheriff Forbes).
SHERIFF FORBES: Bonnie, it is thanks to you that I get to be part of my babies’ special day, no words can express what that means to me. You are the most angelical, sensitive, purest soul I have ever had the fortune to encounter. I love you, kiddo. Oh, and your Grams says hi; she asked me to pull your ears, and tell you to sleep your eight hours!
BONNIE: (Laughs) Sheriff, it is my honor, you are a role-model to all of us; Mystic Falls isn’t the same without you. I love you too, and don’t worry, your daughter is in good hands.
SHERIFF: (Smiles) I know…
BONNIE: Oh, and tell my Grams, I’ll sleep my eight hours when she starts to settle down, that woman is all over the place! (They laugh).
ELENA: My turn… ( she hugs the Sheriff).
SHERIFF FORBES: Ah, Elena… Watching you follow your father’s steps can’t make me any prouder. You have grown into an amazing young lady. I want you to know that they are alright. No matter how far you may think they are, they are always close to you; never forget that.
ELENA: Thank you Sheriff, please let them know they are always in my heart.
SHERIFF: They know… Take good care of yourself, and don’t skip meals!
ELENA: (Laughs) I will, I promise. Okay, Care’s turn. We’ll leave you guys alone; see you down there soon (Elena and Bonnie leave).
SHERIFF FORBES: Come here… (they hug and cry for few minutes)
My baby, you have no idea how much I miss you; but I need you to know I’m always looking out for you. I’ve seen you grow into the most beautiful woman and mother I have ever seen. I’ve seen my adorable grandchildren grow. I’ve seen your struggles; I’ve seen your glories… Not that I’m stalking you or anything (they laugh); doesn’t work like that. We feel you; we are a part of you; that’s how we know… And that’s how I know you are doing fine; just, don’t get into any trouble; okay?
CAROLINE: I’ll try not to… I… I… I can’t believe you are here… I think I need a little more time for this to sink in… Oh, my god, my girls are finally going to meet grandma!
SHERIFF FORBES: And I’m going to cuddle those munchkins till their sick of me.
CAROLINE: I can’t wait to see everyone’s face when they see you!
SHERIFF FORBES: Well, we didn’t want to freak out anyone, so Bonnie and Elena told them beforehand. I’m pretty sure they might freak out anyhow, this is very uncommon, but at least they have a heads up.
CAROLINE: Good call. I feel like Ric would have definitely had a heart attack if he didn’t know. (They hug and laugh).
SHERIFF FORBES: Okay, Mrs. Salvatore Forbes, are you ready?
CAROLINE: I am now…
(they leave for the ceremony).
Cut to - The Salvatore mansion backyard. The place looks breathtaking, an enchanted winter wonderland.
The temperature is perfect, thanks to a whole lot of heaters, and a little bit of magic. Everything is in place, but there will be no wedding officiant; just the bride and groom exchanging vows. Another twist, the bride won’t be walked down the aisle by her BFF this time; Sheriff Forbes is in the house tonight! As the music begins to play, the guests rise. The groom, who has been waiting patiently for his bride, finally sees her arrive… She looks like a moon goddess in a winter wonderland. Her beloved mother, who can’t hide her pride, escorts her to the altar, forever grateful to be able to take part in this unforgettable event in her daughter’s life. Without further ado, the bride and groom exchange vows…
CAROLINE: Stefan, the day I lost you I made myself a promise. I would never go another day without telling the people that I love, just how much they mean to me. I promised I would hug the heck out of them when near; call them at least once a day when far. And remind them each day, that it is thanks to them that my life has meaning. I lied when I told you I understood why you were doing that, I didn’t. I was so mad at you… For leaving me, for choosing everyone else but yourself, for sacrificing yourself, yet again. It was hard… but, time has a neck for making us wiser, if we choose to learn from our past. So, after a whole lot of soul searching, I finally understood why you did what you did… Love… it’s always about love with you; and that is the best gift you could have ever given me… You have thanked me many times for showing you what love is… Thing is, I didn’t show you anything, the only reason we know how to love like that, is because we learnt together. For that, and so many other things, I will love you forever…
STEFAN: You know, I made myself a promise too… When I was in those tunnels, I vowed to never let go. I promised that I would fight through hell, or whatever was out there, to find my way back to you. Second chances are rare, many people aren’t fortunate enough to have one. So, when you are blessed with an opportunity like that, you cease it, and never take it for granted. You live each day to the fullest, you love the hell out of the people you hold dearest, and enjoy every single moment… and that is exactly what I want to do. I want to watch every football game with you, but no matter what you say, the Steelers still suck. I want to eat your horrible “get well soon” soup; (turns to Bonnie) Bonnie, you know firsthand what torture that is; talk about sacrifice! I want to go for midnight walks, and get absolutely lost in our existential talks . I want our Sunday movie nights with the girls, singing and dancing to every Disney song… Hopefully, some day, I won’t have to dress like Elsa anymore… That, right there, is what life is all about, the moments we share, and I want to share every single one of them with you. It is thanks to you, Caroline Elizabeth Forbes, that, after centuries, I finally figured it out… For that, and so many other things, I will love you forever…
(they kiss; both with tears running down their cheeks. Caroline whispers…)
CAROLINE: You cheated again, that was not in the entry I read earlier today.
STEFAN: (Smirks) Never said those were my vows…
CAROLINE: You never cease to amaze me. I am the luckiest woman alive, or the luckiest dead vampire?… Who knows? I am the luckiest is the point!... I love you.
STEFAN: I love you...
(They laugh, hold, and kiss each other, as the guests stand up and cheer for them).
TVD 9x17 - I will love you forever (part 2) coming next! Hope you stop by, read, and enjoy! =)
every single time I remember that the last two seasons of tvd could have had so much more friendship growth within belvafore between baroline and stefonnie and defan and bamon and an actual apology between daroline instead of stILL focusing on elena goddamn gilbert I get so mad
