A drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might end up together
It’s like wishing for rain
As I stand in the desert
But I’m holding you closer than most
‘Cause you are my heaven…

It was a beautiful day in the woods, as they stood in front of each other.
“Would you give me the same choice?” he questioned her.
“What?” she asked.
“If I were to abandon my revenge against Katerina, would you give me the same choice as Tyler?”
She took a second to answer, before replying.
“I don’t know what you mean.”
“Yes, you do,” he said with a smile.
“You—you can’t do this to me! You can’t just show up and distract me!”
A few minutes later, as they walked side by side, she said, “Don’t you have a dying girl to punish for all her sins?”
“I do, but I won’t. For you,” he answered.
She stopped and faced him, and he stopped as well, looking at her.
“So, you came all this way to Mystic Falls just to back off when I ask you to,” she said.
“No, I came all this way to Mystic Falls to “gloat over a corpse-to-be” as you so poetically put it, but I will leave, minus the gloating, in return of one small thing.”
“And what is that?” she asked him.
“I want your confession.”
“My confession. I didn’t do anything. Confession about what?”
“Me. As soon as we’re done here, I’m gonna walk away and I’m never coming back. You’ll never again have to look me in the eye and cover up our connection with hostility and revulsion. You’ll never have to loathe the darkest parts of yourself that care for me in spite of what I’ve done. I will be gone, and you will be free. I just want you to be honest with me,” he explained.
“I’m in college. I’m building a life for myself. I have plans and a future and things that I want. And none of those things involve you, okay? None of them.”
“I see.”
“No, you don’t, because yes, I cover our connection with hostility, because yes, I hate myself for the truth, so if you promise to walk away and never come back like you said, then I will be honest with you. I will be honest with you about what I want.”
“I will walk away and never come back.” He smiled. “I promise.”
“Good,” she said, just inches in front of him.
A moment later, they were kissing.

I don’t wanna waste the weekend
If you don’t love me
Pretend
A few more hours then it’s time to go
As my train rolls down the east coast
I wonder how you keep warm
It’s too late to cry
Too broken to move on
And still I can’t let you be
Most nights I hardly sleep
Don’t take what you don’t need from me

It was a dark night in Elena’s living room, as he looked at Caroline, seated on the coffee table, as she lay motionless on the couch from just hours ago when he had bitten her over hurt and rage. He didn’t want to believe that she was already gone, though.
“Caroline?” he called. “Caroline.”
After some silence, he debated on what to do. He didn’t want her to die, but he also felt that he couldn’t let Tyler win. He finally made up his mind, though.
He gave a low growl and then moved to the couch, positioning her so that her back was against him and her head was against his shoulder. He then bit his wrist and put it to her lips, making his blood go down her throat to save her life and heal her wound.

It’s just a drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might end up together
It’s like wishing for rain
As I stand in the desert
But I’m holding you closer than most
‘Cause you are my heaven
Misplaced trust and old friends
Never counting regrets
By the grace of God I do not rest at all
New England as the leaves change
The last excuse that I’ll claim
I was a boy who loved a woman like a little girl
And still I can’t let you be…

After their fight in his painting room, and after he and Caroline had danced, and after her speech about how he had to always prove that he was the alpha male to Tyler, he found her looking at a horse outside the house.
“You like horses,” he realized.
She looked at him, getting straight to the point.
“Why did you invite me here?”
He smiled at her.
“Well, I fancy you.”

Most nights I hardly sleep
Don’t take what you don’t need from me
It’s just a drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might end up together
It’s like wishing for rain
As I stand in the desert
But I’m holding you closer than most
‘Cause you are my
Heaven doesn’t seem far away anymore
Now, now
Heaven doesn’t seem far away
Heaven doesn’t seem far away anymore
Now, now
Heaven doesn’t seem far away
A drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might end up together
It’s like wishing for rain
As I stand in the desert
But I’m holding you closer than most
‘Cause you are my heaven
You are my heaven
