Elena Gilbert
Stefan Salvatore kept his expression calm and eyes forward as he trekked through the barren wilderness. The trees were decaying and fell apart whenever he brushed his free hand across it. It saddened him to see it. In a way, the trees reminded him of the brunette he was currently leading through the maze of trunks. Something that was once so full of life was now dead. He spared a glance behind him, to observe her face. She was so beautiful, but beneath that beauty resided so much pain. It made his heart ache in his chest. Well...it would, but his heart had died a long time ago. He was a hollow form, a human cursed to roam the world as a monster and try to find some purpose. Something to hold onto to. To live for. And he found that in Elena Gilbert. A girl he never expected to find, but he was grateful that he did. Except when he remembers its his fault she's a vampire at all. If it wasn't for his place in her life, maybe she could've had that human life she always wanted. She could have a family.
He found a small comfort, however, when he realized that maybe it because of this situation that she was even alive right now. She might have preferred dying as a human, but he's glad she could be here as a vampire. He wanted to help her. That's why they came out here in the first place. Well, not here, in the dead woods, but to the place past that. A place he found on his last excursion outside the walls and it was perhaps the only place of beauty that remained after so much destruction. He wanted Elena to experience this place with him.
Stopping in his track, he offered her a small smile, "It's only a little further."
