After Thursday’s episode of The Vampire Diaries, it seems like Elena’s choice is way up in the air! But Julie Plec and Ian Somerhalder have both offered some thoughts and spoilers about what’s going to happen, and when Elena will finally choose between Stefan and Damon.
Plec confirms to TV Line that Elena will make a definitive decision by the end of season 3. And in the second to last episode, Damon and Stefan will come to terms with whomever she chooses:
The conversation of what will it be like when she does choose is something that happens in the second to last episode of the season. It’s actually a really introspective, nice and emotional moment between the brothers. It’s a scene I really like, and I think other people might like it too.
She also doesn’t rule out that Elena could choose herself, or the fourth option, “I choose both of you.” Plec says:
The big thing with her choice is she’s not the one in complete control of it. These two men really deeply care about her, and she deeply cares about both of them. It’s really a decision about what does love mean to me and to us and where are we supposed to be in our lives with each other. It’s pretty poignant.
Ian Somerhalder adds to this when speaking to E! Online:
Elena makes a decision. [And] the brothers both agree, ‘If she goes for you, I’ll leave town. And if she goes for me, you leave town. So this doesn’t get weird.’ And they both agree on it. And that’s what’s so cool is that by virtue of this decision the boys have ultimately become so insanely close. And I love that I think it’s really cool that that’s what happens.

We wouldn’t start placing bets, but considering that Stefan left town last year, isn’t it… kind of Damon’s turn?
