Love's always gonna require a huge leap of faith, a big scary leap over a hot pit of lava, and you might end up heartbroken, but you might be the happiest person on the face of the earth. Personally, I'm glad I took that leap.

This is the relationship between the cured vampire/human doppelgänger, Elena Gilbert and the witch, Josette Parker. They met sometime during the summer of 2012 when Elena became a pre-medicine major at Whitmore College and began interning at Whitmore Medical Center under the guidance of Jo. Elena later discovers that Jo is a supernatural creature like her, a witch.
