HERE'S THE END OF IT THO

Imagine human!Stefan helping human!Damon with getting Katherine back, and when you arrive you find your husband shot on the ground

 Living with your husband Stefan was hands down the best thing ever. A dream come true. He was always so shy and adorable, you loved embarrassing him in the mornings when he was barely clothed, and making him smile in the evenings with a bubble bath prepared for you two. You loved all of it, and you loved him too, and life was perfect for you two. Marriage made you two only happier, and he loved calling you Mrs. Salvatore, and his wife, even if he turned as red as a firetruck every time he, or anyone else, said it.

 But to make it simple and short, things were just peachy. Until Stefan just had to go out with his brother and help him get Katerina, who had been taken. Ever since Damon first met her, he had been in love, and you thought the same of Stefan but he only had eyes for you. But when Damon oh so kindly begged for his brother's assistance, the scrawny, small boy agreed, happy to show everyone what a brave and strong man he was. But he wasn't.

 You completely disagreed with him and hated the plan to get the girl for Damon. Not only was Stefan too weak, but if Katherine had been taken then there must have been a reason for it. So you told Stefan to stay home and stay safe, but he hated when you, or anyone, thought he was too weak to fight. He knew he was, but to prove you wrong, he sneaked out when you were taking a bath, leaving you alone in the candlelight where you waited for your husband to join you, but he never did.

 For twenty minutes you waited, and thought he was just suffering from insecurity and wouldn't join you in the bathtub because of that, but after a while you understood that you had totally walked into a trap. You got up from the tub, and dried your hair and body quickly before slipping into a white dress you would have usually worn under another dress, but you were in too much of a rush to pay attention to the way you looked like.

 "Stupid, stupid boy", you mumbled, wiping tears before running into the chilly air, chasing your dumb husband to where Katerina was supposed to be.

 While you were running towards your husband, Stefan ran with Damon towards a wagon where Katerina was. Stefan hated being so small and pathetic, he thought this was the perfect way to prove everyone, including his wife, wrong. He wanted you to see that even if he was tiny and skinny, he could be a fighter, too. Like his brother, even if Damon was more muscular and built.

 "Kat is over there!", Damon whispered, and pointed at a wagon where they could see Katerina's face. The wagon stopped, for some reason, and the brothers saw their chance coming. They ran to the back of the vehicle, and Damon smiled when he saw the girl of his dreams, still alive. He opened the back of the wagon, and took Katerina in his arms, and freed her mouth from the trap around it, only for the girl to protest.

 "What are you two doing here?", she asked in shock. Damon smiled, and hugged the girl quickly before opening the ties around her wrists.

 "We're going to get you out of here", Stefan whispered, smiling. He was so happy that he was doing something heroic, and that it was for his brother. He was proud of himself. But Katerina did not agree - she rolled her eyes, and nipped on her wrist with fangs Stefan was shocked to see, but before he had time to question her intentions, the woman shoved the blood into his mouth, and did the same with Damon.

 "What the--", Damon began, but before he had time to finish, a gunshot forced him to drop Katerina on the ground and collapse himself. Stefan went into panic when he saw his brother's chest covered in blood, and the hole caused by a bullet. Tears filled the innocent boy's eyes as he went to his knees and begged for his brother to stay, heartbroken by the sight.

 "Damon", he breathed out, "Damon, please." But he was long gone. Damon Salvatore was dead. Stefan wiped away the salty tears with his sleeve, and closed his dead brother's eyes before getting up and grabbing a weapon from the ground, aiming to shoot whoever did the same to Damon.

 But then another gunshot could be heard, just when you arrived to the situation. You screamed when you saw the gun pointed at Stefan, but your begging did nothing for him - his body slumped onto the ground and so did yours after running to him. Your hands trembled and your eyes were blurry because of all the tears, as you tried to press the wound in your husband's chest but he was far too wounded to get through it.

 "You stupid boy... I told you to stay home. To bathe with me. You were supposed to-- Goddamnit, Stefan. I love you, I love you so much, please stay with me. Don't leave me. We only just got married, there's so much more for us. Stefan, please", you begged, sobbing with no control at all. You glanced over to Damon's dead body, and bit your lip before turning back to Stefan who was taking in his last breaths.

 "I love you too, Y/N", he smiled weakly. Still, at the verge of death, he managed to blush at your and his words. "I love you", he whispered once more, before his eyes stopped moving, his chest stopped heaving and his lips stopped trembling with fear. You knew he was gone, but you didn't want to accept it. You didn't want it, you didn't deserve it - neither did he.

 "Stefan, no, don't you dare-- No, damn it, you open those damn eyes and get up so we can go home and take that bath. I'll make you something good to eat. We'll cuddle until we fall asleep. I'll take care of you. I'll clean up your wounds like I always do. I'll kiss it to make it feel better", you cried, cupping his face and pressing your forehead against his.

 The memories of him flooded into your mind, from the day Damon pushed him to you and he asked you out, to the moment when he waited for you with flowers in his hands. From all the times you nurtured him to health and took care of his cut lip and bruised skin, to the night when you had your first time. From the jealousy you felt when you first met Katerina, to the happiness you felt when you walked down the aisle to get married with your one and only.

 "Stefan, please open your eyes", you begged once more, but then someone, you weren't sure who because all you could concentrate on was your dear husband, but someone, dragged you away from the arms of your dead lover. You were taken away from Stefan, and Damon, and all you could do was cry.

 And you cried, for weeks. For months. And it took you ages to get over Stefan's death, though you never entirely did, but after years in another town, another country, you grew to live with the fact he was gone. It hurt like hell, and you nearly fell off the tracks and ended your own life to meet him in heaven where you were convinced he was. He was such a good man, always protecting you and others, picking fights even when he couldn't possibly win.

 But you stayed strong, and somehow, managed to live without him. Even if it was the hardest thing you had ever done. But you never, ever took off your ring.
