It was pitch black dark by the time Stefan had pulled his red Porsche back in front of the Salvatore boarding house with his hand rested protectively onto the Gilbert girl's thigh as he tried to absorb as much of Emily and her presence as he could while he mentally prepared himself for what was to come tonight.
It absolutely pained the Salvatore vampire to even think about letting his girlfriend out of his sight on a regular basis but the fact that the feared hybrid was going to take her absolutely crushed Stefan. He knew no time was going to ever prepare him for what was going to happen tonight but he still tried to get ready for that feared moment as he took a shaky deep breath and reminded himself that Emily would come back to him in the end.
Emily, who had been peacefully sitting in the passenger seat of the red sports car while she enjoyed her last human moment, swiftly twisted her head around to face her boyfriend when she felt as his hand tightened around her thigh. They had been sitting in the vehicle for the past five minutes but Emily knew that the Salvatore vampire needed that time right now.
However, Emily soon grew worried by the way Stefan was gripping her leg and how he was like in a trance as he kept his green irises glued onto the side of the boarding house in front of them. The Gilbert girl lightly placed her hand over her boyfriend's as to not frighten him before she gently inquired, "you doing okay?"
Stefan, finally and thankfully, got out of his anxiety ridden mind as soon as he heard the soft tone coming from his girlfriend before he turned his head and looked over to the worried Gilbert girl. The Salvatore vampire shot Emily a small but tense smile as he himself was still anxious about tonight before he uttered with a hint of humor in his voice, "I think I should be the one asking you that."
The Gilbert girl released a small chuckle as she shook her head in amusement. However, Emily didn't say anything after that. She only gave Stefan's hand, that was resting on her thigh, a small squeeze before she silently opened the passenger door and began to exit the red Porsche.
Emily couldn't help the soft smile that immediately pulled onto her lips, though, when she stood up and fully exited the car as she noticed that the Salvatore vampire was standing right in front of her. The Gilbert girl moved up onto her tippy toes as she wrapped her arms around Stefan's neck before she placed a soft kiss onto his lips. "Everything is going to be okay," Emily murmured as she assured her boyfriend while she aimlessly played with the ends of his brunette hair. "We're going to get through this, okay?" The Gilbert girl continued to comfort her boyfriend, "and I'm going to be okay."
The Salvatore vampire silently stared into Emily's bright green eyes for a moment as he tried to see if she really was okay like she was saying and really believed that everything would actually be okay as well. However, when Stefan found only truthfulness behind her gaze, Stefan nodded his head as he released a deep sigh. That was honestly all that Stefan wanted for his girlfriend. He just wanted to make sure that Emily was okay and that she was handling all of this fairly well - despite the fact that he was a nervous wreck himself.
