It looks like Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder are getting back together both onscreen and off-screen. "The Vampire Diaries" season 5 stars have been being friendly with each other proving that they finally got over the awkwardness following their break up.

The latest season of their hit CW supernatural show is set to premiere on Thursday night and while promos already revealed that their characters Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and Elena (Nina Dobrev) will be sharing a lot of steamy kisses it seems like the two stars finally embraced what is set to become their norm.

With the season 5 premiere just hours away the cast and crew have been sharing their excitement with co-executive producer Caroline Dries taking to Twitter, hinting at what can be expected of this season.

She tweeted, "Kissing. kissing. kissing. murder. kissing. kissing. kissing. death. #TVD tomorrow!" to which Nina Dobrev responded and wrote, "LOL perfect description!!"

The day before Ian Somerhalder posted a picture on his Instagram account of him holding up a piece of paper with the words "Tomorrow #TVD".

Attached the caption: "Are you READY!!!!!", Nina retweeted it, adding: "Yessssummmm he's right! Tomorrow is #TVD day! S***s about to get real!"

In the latest promo clip released we see Damon and Elena in a very clothing-optional situation, according to Hollywood Life.

Damon sits on the bathtub with nothing but a towel while Elena lounges inside of it with nothing but bubbles to cover her modesty.

It is set as the night before the hot brunette heads off to Whitmore College with the vampire couple enjoying their final moments together before her departure.

While basking in her sexy boyfriend's presence Elena tells him, "I just got this weird feeling like something bad is going to happen."

Even though Damon assures his girlfriend that everything will be okay rumor has it, that the pair is headed for trouble later this season, but as for now, things are looking good.
