And it's breaking over me, A thousand miles down to the sea bed, Found the place to rest my head. Never let me go, never let me go.
Elena’s passionate embrace with Damon in “Heart Of Darkness” (3x19) signified a new beginning for Delena, a time where Elena is starting to realize she needs Damon like she needs air. When she ran towards Damon to キッス him, she let go of all the guilt she’s been feeling for falling for Damon, the fear she has of her own feelings. She allowed herself to forget the world & just feel what she really feels for him. Elena gave herself completely to Damon in that moment & that キッス set her free. They pulled each other as close as humanly possible as Florence + The Machine’s “Never Let Me Go” played, a perfect song choice considering that once Damon held Elena, she seemed to never want Damon to let her go. Elena has 発言しました it herself that she can’t shake Damon & the people around her have noticed that Damon has gotten under Elena’s skin & that she’s in 愛 with Damon. Lines like “I’m here until the end, I am not leaving you” (2x22) & “We can’t leave Damon” (3x02) are now もっと見る significant in connection to the song “Never Let Me Go.” It also connects well to how fierce they are about protecting each other. Elena refused to leave Damon’s side when he was dying even though it was possible he could hurt her (2x22) & both have considered going up against an Original in order to protect the other even though they both know they are no match for an Original (3x19). They’re willing to fight to protect one another & die to keep the other safe.
Rose: “It’s not just that she makes him a better person, and she does. He changes her too. Damon challenges her, surprises her. He makes her 質問 her life, beliefs” (3x19)
However, Elena hasn’t fully 与えられた herself to Damon yet. When Damon asked her if she has feelings for him she responded によって saying “I don’t know.” It’s pretty clear that Elena does have very strong feelings for Damon but she’s not prepared to say it out loud. She took a step フォワード, 前進, 楽しみにして towards admitting her feelings for Damon によって 芝居 on those feelings when she initiated the キッス between them. But she’s not there just yet. Rose told Jeremy “Damon is either the best thing for her または the worst” meaning that because their 愛 & passion is so strong for each other that in relation to each other when they hurt, they really hurt and when they love, they really love. Delena’s 愛 for each other consume them both, every emotion they feel for the other is magnified, good & bad. That’s why when they are angry at each other (For example Elena’s anger towards Damon after he snapped Jeremy’s neck in 2x01 & Damon’s reaction to feeling rejected によって Elena in 3x14) that anger is magnified and when they kissed in 3x10 & even もっと見る so in 3x19 their passion for each other was magnified. Basically Delena set an undeniable 火災, 火 within each other. Elena has never experienced a 愛 like that with anyone & it scares her because it’s unfamiliar territory. That’s why she could barely breathe when Damon touched her hand & why she had to lean against a ウォール for support after holding his hand. He leaves her breathless every time. When it comes to the other loves she’s had in her life, they don’t compare. Matt was very familiar for her, someone she knew from childhood & formulated a friendship with him. For her Matt is comfortable. And Stefan is Elena’s 安全, 安全です choice & that’s why Rose 発言しました “He’ll always be good for her” but being with Stefan または Matt means forsaking passionate love, the kind of 愛 あなた live for, the kind of 愛 she could have with Damon. In other words Elena would be settling for 秒 best. They bring out the best in one another, they have from the start. Elena brings out Damon’s humanity & Damon brings out Elena’s passion within. Something that no one else can do for either of them. They are & always will be each others perfect match.
When Elena moved her 枕 slightly just to get a better view of Damon she was pushing her fear aside to really see Damon. There was longing & desire in her eyes like Damon was the most beautiful thing Elena has ever seen. But she also had a look of wonder, wonder of what it would be like to finally tell Damon what she feels, to give into her feelings, to just let go. It was a look that was so sudden but Damon caught it. It’s a look that the viewers have seen all along but it means what Damon thought couldn’t be true, that Elena wants him. Elena knows that she wants Damon, & deep down she already knows that she loves him too & so does Damon. Elena knows that there is no way Damon would または could walk away from her, he promised to never leave her again. We can probably expect similar words from Elena at some point in the near future as well. Elena is Damon’s ホーム & Damon is her home, & once they are on the same level & everything is out in the open they really will not be able to let each other go. Because when it's real あなた can't walk away.
