She looks at Elijah, quietly taking in his slightly hunched posture and careful neutral face. His hair's still damp from the rain, curling a little and her fingers itch to touch it.

"The world isn't over yet
We've still got a chance to place our bets
We both made a little mess
Nothing our two hearts can't put back
I'll never love you less
Don't let your worries second guess
We'll start over fresh, living a life with no regrets
Living a life with no regrets"

"You and Hayley had history. Then why me?" Elena questioned again.

"I've got my issues, I admit that
You got some fears that hold you back
But we are acting like we're children
Looking to blame for what we lack"

She picks up the bag of blood and carefully opens it to pour a little into a glass; after all these years she's become comfortable drinking in front of him, no longer ashamed of what she is.

"Hayley didn't truly understand me. I shouldn't love someone like that. I should love someone who understands me as much as I understand you. And while we're on point I think we should love someone who respects and admires our choices."
