Here we are, the last chapter of this fic and of the serie. For the few of you who might have been following the adventures of Haily since the beginning, I hope you're satisfied.

This last chapter is majorly from Elena's POV, because I wanted another character's reaction to JerHaily. I hope you aren't disappointed Bonnie and Jeremy aren't together anymore ( XD ). I could have been a lot worse with Bonnie, but I decided she was still worth hapiness.

Well, enjoy this last chapter.


Epilogue

Elena closed the trunk, turning around to the people she'd been used to live with everyday for the past year. Stefan and Katherine were exchanging saliva on the porch, barely leaving each other's lips for more than a millisecond. For a second, she wondered how they could breathe, before remembering they didn't have to. Alaric and Jenna were smiling at her, holding hands. Since Haily had brought the vampire back more than a year ago, the history teacher could barely let go of her. Tyler and Caroline were already on their way to Georgetown, where Caroline had been accepted. Tyler had only said that he would give everything up to follow her. Elena had no doubt he would try and compel some secretary to be accepted in too. Bonnie and Matt had moved to California a week ago to go to UCLA, where they both had been accepted. Elena hoped her best friends could find love with each other. It would be good for Bonnie to be with a normal guy and good for Matt to be with a girl who would love him entirely.

Damon was under the biggest tree with Haily, saying his goodbye. It had been the hardest decision for him to go to Berkeley with her. Richmond wasn't that far, but leaving Haily had been far from easy. Watching them from where she was, she could tell a part of him wanted to stay with the teenager he'd learned to consider as his little sister. Sometimes, he almost looked like a father to her. Seeing how close he was to the girl, Elena regretted he couldn't have children. He would have made a terrific father.

-I'm going to miss you.

She turned around to Jeremy, who held a picture he'd drawn of their entire "family". Elena smiled and took the picture, which almost looked like a photograph. She hugged her brother one last time with tears in her eyes.

-I'm gonna miss you too, Jer.

She heard the distinct footsteps of Damon's boots behind them. Her boyfriend's hand rested on the small of her back as she stepped back from her brother's embrace. Haily now stood beside Jeremy and her arm slipped under his, linking their fingers together. Damon looked at their hands for a moment before shifting his sight to the youngest Gilbert.

-You take care of her. I don't want to have to come back before the first college break to put a stake through your heart.

Elena shoved him a little.

-Watch out, Salvatore. It's my brother you're talking about.

Damon turned his head to her, making eye contact and looking at her through his lashes. Elena sighed as he bent down to kiss her.

-What were you saying?

She sighed once again and shook her head. If there was something Damon Salvatore was a master at, it was making her forget everything within a second.

They both sat in the car. As they drove away from the boarding house, Elena looked in the rear view mirror. Haily and Jeremy were kissing and backing up to the house, where she had no doubt they would end up in the angel's bedroom. She looked over to Damon, who was frowning as he also looked at them through the mirror. She smiled and took his hand.

-Stop worrying. They're teenagers. I don't remember being much older than them when you first came in my bedroom unnoticed.

-It's not... How do you know that?

-Damon, you might be very old, but there are a lot of things you still have to learn about women...
