Damon:  I wanted to apologize.

Elena: Good.

Damon: Let me finish. Isaid I wanted to, and then a realized I'm not sorry.

Elena: You would ratherdie than be human, and you expect me to be Ok with that?

Damon: I didn't say youwere supposed be Ok with it. I just said I'm not sorry. But you know what Ireally am? Selfish. Because I make bad choices that hurt you. Yes, I wouldrather have died than be human. I'd rather die right now than spend a handfulof years with you only to lose you when I'm too old and sick and miserable, andyou're still you. I'd rather die right now than spend my last, final yearsremembering how I good I had it and how happy I was, because that's who I am,Elena, and I'm not gonna change, And there's no apology in the world thatencompasses all the reasons that I'm wrong for you.

Elena: Fine. Then I'm notsorry either. I'm not sorry that I met you. I'm not sorry that knowing you hasmade me question everything. And that in death you're the one that made me feelmost alive. You've been a terrible person. You made all the wrong choices, andof all the choices that I have made, this will prove to be the worst one, But Iam not sorry that I'm in love with you. I love you, Damon.
