Ernesto's Starship

Ext, Mystic Falls Golf Course. Day.

Alaric and Damon approach the top of the ninth hole… They each fish out the appropriate club… Damon t’s up and strikes the ball.  It hits the green a few yards from the hole…

Alaric: I don’t get it.

Damon: Don’t get what?

Alaric: How old are you, Damon?

Damon: Pushing two-hundred. Why? 

Alaric: I’m thirty-six years old.

Damon: And?

Alaric: And the idea of dating an eighteen year old girl, to me, seems absolutely horrible. I mean, what could they possibly know about life that would make spending any time with them remotely interesting?

[Damon considers this….]

Alaric: I mean, of all the things you’ve seen, all you’ve experienced, why Elena? Is it just because she looks like Kathryn? That can’t be all. Shit Damon, she didn’t even know who the Beatles were until I played her The White Album just the other day….

[Damon becomes reflective….]

Alaric: I’m sorry to bring it up. I just worry about her, you know. I’m concerned that as you and your brother chase down your youth, you’re robbing her of her own… Do you really love her, or are you just afraid to let go?

[Damon looks at Alaric as Alaric t’s up….]

Alaric: FORE!!!

[Alaric winds up and strikes the ball. It sales through the air finally landing on the green a couple of feet from the hole…. Alaric puts away his club and gathers up his bag.]

Alaric: I’ll see ya down there.

[We slowly push in on Damon, lost in Alaric’s point. When…]

Damon: What would you do?

[Alaric stops, turns around, takes a moment.]

Alaric: I don’t know what time feels like as an Immortal , Damon… But if I were you, Id wait.

Damon: Wait for what?

Alaric: Wait until she’s older. Wait until she’s loved other people. Wait for her taste in music to grow… If you still love her in twelve years, and the times right for her, make an appearance. In the meantime, if you really love her, see if you can do it from a distance. Watch over her. Protect her. Give her space to grow up. If you can do that for twelve years, and you still love her, then make a move…. If I had all the time in the world, thats what I would do.

[Damon takes this in as Alaric turns and makes his way down the green.]
