The Vampire Diaries, Season 4

Elena:
Dear Diary, I know it's been a while. A long while. I haven't needed... I haven't wanted to write this stuff down. But I didn't want to say it out loud either. The thing is.. I'm a vampire. And I hate it.

Stefan:
(writing in journal) She's been spiraling since her transition. There are times I barely recognize her. But now, the first time in a while, there's hope.

Elena:
I feel hopeless. Depressed. Angry. But most of all... I'm scared.

Stefan:
Somewhere in the world, there's a cure for vampires. If I can get it, Elena can be human again. I can giver her back her life.

Elena:
Part of me just wants to end it. But, then I think of Jeremy; I'm all that he has left. So I need to find a way through this. No matter what it takes.

Stefan:
So that's what I need to do. No matter what Klaus asks; no matter what lies I have to tell or secrets I have to keep, I'll do it. No matter what it takes.
