If u think about it's really always been Damon. Since the beginning of this toon I always thought Elena would eventually end up with the older Salvatore brother, even before we find out the part where Damon found Elena first. He spoke to her and wished her a love that would consume her, then proof made her forget all about him. That very same night Elena's parents drove off a bridge with her in the car and like magic Stefan saves Elena. Some fans may say that love was for Stefan but I don't think so. Elena had to forgive Damon for meer than she ever did Stefan. She became his friend, his savior even, of course she had to love him. Elena zei she hated Damon on multiple occasions but somehow see always forgave him, always found a way to trust him again. I hope the doppelgangers' destiny to meet and fall in love doesn't affect Elena and Damon, because I feel like even though Elena had this "epic love" with Stefan the slow blooming love she had for Damon was always there. Elena's love for Damon had time to grow and strengthen.
“You’re here.” she breathed, slipping her hands around his neck and leaning in to press her cheek against the coolness of his jacket.
“Not exactly dressed for occasion.” he murmured.
“That’s alright. I can’t imagine the 20s being your time period. I..” she whispered, face flushing with rose. “I like u better like this.”
“You do?” he cocked an eyebrow, smirking his famous - and her favoriete - Damon smirk.
She stayed very silent, simply enjoying the feel of his arms around her as they swayed to muziek that was rather slow. All night they had played muziek that certainly fit the 1920s jazz decade. What strange coincidence that they should play a slower song the moment Damon showed up. She pulled back to glance into his eyes. “I’m glad you’re here. I was waiting for you.”
