For such a long time Dec had wanted to come clean to Caroline and tell her that to him she was so much more than just his best friend. He had thought about doing it so many times but every time something had held him back. He had felt certain that she would never feel the same and instead of risking their friendship he had kept quiet about it and, as it turned out, so had Caroline. It had taken them eighteen years to figure it out and even though he knew that no matter what happened they would always be friends, at the same time he knew that he didn’t want to go back to the way things used to be. Being able to be honest with Caroline was an incredible feeling and he knew that they were still going to have to go through the whole seeing how everyone they cared about was going to react but the truth was that he wasn’t really bothered by that. All that mattered to him was making Caroline happy and he would do everything that he could in order to make that happen. It was easy to forget everyone else around them as they danced but as Caroline said that her mom still didn’t know what had happened to her, Dec’s expression softened. “She’s your mom, Care, she could never hate you,” he said gently. “You might not be the same as you were a few months ago but you’re still her daughter and you always will be,” he assured her. He didn’t really know how her mom would react but he liked to think that she would be understanding and see that Caroline was still the same girl that she had raised and loved since the day she was born. As she said that she didn’t want her to know, Dec pulled Caroline into his arms and hugged her tightly. “Then we’ll do all we can to make sure that she doesn’t find out, I promise.”CAROLINE FORBES

Caroline whispered God, I hope. Under her breath, because she really couldn't imagine how it would go for her if her mom hated her for the change she really had no control over. She didn't want this, but she couldn't do anything about it anymore. It wasn't like there was a cure out there for this. Otherwise, she would have done everything in her might to find it. "Thank you." His words meant everything for her and she really, really hoped her mom would see her the same way. The second she was enveloped in his warm embrace, she felt whole again. Her bad thoughts pushed to the far back of her mind as her own arms came to wrap around him, returning the embrace with one of her own. "I know. Thank you." She felt happy to know she had someone like him in her life. "What would I do without you?" He always knew how to comfort her better than anyone. Always knew what to say to make her happy again. It really didn't take long for a smile to form on her lips as she buried her face in the crook of his neck, enjoying how it felt to hold him like this, the world around them mattering close to none as she allowed herself to get lost in the sensation of his warm body close to her own. "Thank you for everything. Really. You've put up with me longer than anyone out there. Even my friends hate me sometimes, but you... You never made me feel like you hated me. I'm glad I have you in my life." Caroline admitted softly before she leaned back to look at him better. "I'm glad I know you."DECLAN LEROUX

Dec had grown up knowing that one day he would start shifting into a white tiger with each full moon like his parents and older siblings before him and the thought of it had been both terrifying and thrilling at the same time. He’d been fortunate enough not to have to worry about whether or not his family would accept him when that time came because they had already gone through it themselves and they had been good enough to accept everything else about him as well. He knew that it had to be scary for Caroline worrying about her mom finding out but he liked to think that Liz would see that Caroline was still Caroline. If anything the change seemed to have done her good and it was impossible not to see that. Luckily in just a few short months they would be heading to college and Caroline would then have some time and space to figure things out away from her mom and he hoped that it would help. “You don’t need to thank me, it’s the truth,” Dec assured her gently. If there was anything that he could have done to stop Caroline from having to go through this in the first place then he knew that he would have done it but unfortunately there was no cure for it just like there was no cure for being a werecreature so all he could do was be there for Caroline whenever she needed him. Pulling her into his arms he felt a smile work its way across his face as she hugged him back and he kissed the top of her head gently. As she asked what she would do without him, his smile widened. “Luckily for you you’re never going to have to find out because I’m not going anywhere,” he assured her. He would be lying if he said that the run ins he’d had with the couple of hunters over the last year hadn’t knocked his confidence a little but he had plenty worth fighting for and he knew that he wasn’t going to let anything come between the two of them now that they were finally together. As she spoke again before leaning back to look at him, Dec brought his hand up and let it rest against her cheek. “I’ve never hated you Care, I never could,” he assured her. He was pretty sure that that was because he’d been in love with her for as long as he could remember but they were still figuring things out right now so he knew that he had to bite his tongue. “I’m glad I have you in my life too. If I’d lost you I don’t know what I would have done,” he admitted. It could have easily happened when she had fallen into Katherine’s clutches but thankfully the woman had turned her instead of killing her and even though he hated Katherine for what she had put Care through he was always going to be grateful that she hadn’t chosen the latter.

Caroline smiled softly, feeling eternally grateful that she had Declan in her life. He always knew how to keep her calm, always knew what to say. The way he delivered his words always had a charm to it that could only belong to Declan. For now, she had to push away the thought of her mother finding out to focus instead on the fact that they were currently in Prom and she can't keep ruining the mood with her constant worries. She needed to wind down for once and focus on having fun along with Declan. It was literally a once-in-a-lifetime night and she's currently wasting it away worrying about a lot of things. Hearing that he never hated her definitely put a gentle smile on her lips, her eyes focused on her boyfriend's as his words spread warmth in her stomach, making her forget about everything else that seemed to take over her and make her constantly worry. She closed her eyes for a split second as she leaned into the warmth of his palm. She allowed herself to focus solely on Declan and what it meant for her to be in his arms tonight. "Hey," she whispered, her own hand moving up to cup Declan's cheek. "You're not gonna lose me." Caroline reassured, her tone soft. "I'm not going anywhere." Not again. She won't allow someone to catch her off-guard. She'll be smarter than that. She won't allow anything like that to happen again. The second she turned, she also became someone different. No longer the easily manipulated Caroline. "The first thing on my agenda as a new Caroline Forbes is to not die. Again. So I don't think you need to worry about that." Caroline said with a small chuckle following. She had jokingly made that odd agenda and put a lot of different stuff on it. Including not dying again, of course. Caroline's attention seemed elsewhere for a second when they stopped the music which made her slowly release Declan from her hold and turn to look at the stage as two individuals stood there. "Look, look, it's time." Caroline pointed to the stage, her hand drifting down to clasp Declan as something akin to giddy anticipation nestled in her stomach. Caroline's eyes widened when they were dubbed Prom Prince & Princess. It definitely made her night a lot better. DECLAN LEROUX

For a while Dec had honestly thought about giving prom a miss but now he was glad that Caroline had made him change his mind. He knew that she would have killed him if he had decided not to go and given everything that had happened between them that evening he knew that he had made the right decision by asking her to go with them. The invitation had been an innocent one and he had meant for them to go as friends and it had started out that way but it certainly wasn’t ending like that. The kiss had been impulsive and it had been an attempt to get Caroline to focus on something other than the other teenager’s blood but it had opened the floodgates and now he knew that he didn’t want to take any of that back. For too long they had both been hiding the way they felt about each other and neither of them had been truly happy seeing other people so he hoped that now they had come clean then they might finally find that same happiness that some of their friends had found. A part of him still felt a little guilty about leaving Amy at home since she had decided not to go after breaking up with the guy that she had been seeing but he knew that she understood. He had never admitted to anyone that he liked Caroline as more than a friend but he didn’t doubt that his twin would have figured it out a long time ago. He wasn’t sure exactly when Caroline had stopped being just his best friend but something had changed somewhere along the line and he knew that he didn’t want to do anything to mess this up, nor did he want to lose her. “I’ll hold you to that,” Dec said as Caroline said that she wasn’t going anywhere. They had been a part of each other’s lives ever since they were born and he knew that he couldn’t imagine his life without her in it now. Mystic Falls wasn’t as safe as it once was, there were so many hunters around and he’d already had run ins with two of them over the last year but he had been lucky enough to survive both encounters and he knew that he wasn’t going to let himself end up staring down the barrel of a gun a third time. “I’m glad to hear it,” Dec chuckled as Caroline told him about her new agenda. She had already died once and he didn’t even want to think about what would have happened if she hadn’t had Katherine’s blood in her system at the time. As far as he was concerned a world without Caroline Forbes in it just wasn’t worth thinking about. Turning to the stage as the music stopped and Caroline said that it was time, Dec kept his arm wrapped around her waist as the winners were announced and he made sure to cheer for Caroline as her name was called as a prom princess and the names of some of their other friends were announced too. As she finally returned to him a wide smile formed on his face and he brushed her hair away from her face before stealing a gentle kiss. “I told you you’d get a crown.”CAROLINE FORBES

Caroline had a hard time even thinking about the possibility of her leaving Mystic Falls for good. She knew that there was a possibility of her leaving for college, but even then, she won't stay out of Mystic Falls for long. She will always come back because Mystic Falls was her home. Had always been her home from day one. All her fond memories were in Mystic Falls and everywhere she goes, she gets reminded of how much she loves this town despite all its bad memories, too. Being turned in this town, it should have made her hate it, but she couldn't find it in her to hate it. Mystic Falls played an important part in her life that despite everything, it will always remain her favorite place in the entire world. It was through Mystic Falls that she met Declan, too. How could she ever hate it or think about leaving for good? When she was announced as the prom princess, she felt her heart bloom with nothing but absolute happiness and delight. She felt no resentment when Bonnie was crowned as the Prom Queen. Her best friend deserved to be happy and she was just grateful that people agreed to make her happy, too. When Caroline climbed up to get her crown, there was a wide grin on her lips as she waved and smiled at everyone. She made her way down the steps to make her way back to Declan, her grin beaming. "You did. Are were-tigers psychics, too?" Caroline joked with a playful chuckle following as she leaned forward to press her lips against Declan, kissing him passionately. "Tonight couldn't be more perfect." She whispered after leaning away from the kiss. "Thank you." She added a moment later because if it weren't for him, she would have left a while go, or maybe without him, she wouldn't have left her home to begin with. So she owed him a lot. DECLAN LEROUX

Dec had applied to a few colleges around the country but as far as he was concerned Whitmore was always going to be his first choice. He knew that he could probably go wherever he wanted but at the end of the day Mystic Falls was his home and his family and friends were there. A lot of them were going to be graduating with him and they would then be going in different directions after graduation but he knew that at least a few of them were planning on heading to Whitmore like he was. There were some people who couldn’t wait to get out of the town but even after everything that Dec had been through and the two run ins he’d had with hunters over the last year he still wasn’t one of them. He refused to let anyone chase him out of his home and he knew that he didn’t want to be so far away from his family either. It helped knowing that Amy was going to be heading to Whitmore with him and Caroline was too so he would have the two people that mattered most to him by his side anyway so he knew that he couldn’t ask for anything more than that. Things had certainly taken an unexpected turn that night and it was incredible to think that it had all been brought about by one kiss but now they had plenty of time to figure things out and the truth was that he was looking forward to it. As the Prom Princes and Princesses were crowned he made sure to clap and cheer for his friends but he cheered the loudest for Caroline. He knew just how much work she had put into making the evening perfect and it looked like it had certainly paid off. It wasn’t long before the King and Queen were announced as well and as Caroline returned to him he couldn’t help but laugh at her question. “No but I’m fluent in all things Caroline and I know it wouldn’t have been the same if you hadn’t been called up there after everything you did to make tonight happen,” he chuckled, not hesitating in kissing her back as her lips met his. As she pulled away and thanked him, Dec felt a gentle smile work its way across his face. “You have nothing to thank me for, you’re the one that’s done all the hard work.” She had done so well resisting her bloodlust when the girl had cut herself earlier and to say that he was proud of her would be an understatement.
