The Only Exception

To say I was quite lost with finding my friends in this vast vibrant city, would be the biggest understatement of the century. Inebriated jackasses, were stumbling all over the streets of New Orleans at this late hour of the night cheering, drinking and dancing. While I was maintaining a fast and meaningful pace to try locate my group of friends.

I cursed the unfortunate luck I was currently experiencing in life, recalling that nothing seemed to be going right for me, since I finished college. At 21, me and my dwindling number of friends were growing more and more distanced by the day, rarely ever finding the opportunity to spend time together any more. Prompting me the idea to suggest to the lot, that we should go out on a vacation, which eventually lead us to the sleepless city of New Orleans.

First day here, three different bars and 3 bottles of tequila later, my friends thought it would be a wonderful idea to leave me alone with this stereotypical muscle head that had the charisma of a brick. I still couldn't fathom his logic with trying to flirt with me, believing that if he complimented my toned body and exotic complexion enough, it would be enough to make me open my pants up for him, urgh. Eventually I grew impatient of his antics and cheesy pick up lines, I wordlessly vacated the southern bar to try and scout for my 'friends'.

Still on a mission to find them, I darted around the corner of the current street I was on to find myself on the corner 'bourbon street, huffing to myself I checked my phone my again, hoping any of them would eventually call me back, my heart sank as I checked my phone again to discover that now I had no battery left to contact them, I had no idea where I was any more and could no longer find the hotel, what a brilliant night this is turning out to be.

Internally scolding myself for being such a worrier, I shrugged my shoulders and decided to try and at least salvage some semblance of fun tonight. Seeing the nearest neon signed bar, I strolled lazily toward the building, leading me to carelessly trip over the curb and toward a tall blonde woman walking past me at that very moment, tumbling toward her didn't seem to faze or surprise her in the slightest, as she managed catch me almost impossibly fast with extreme ease.

For a brief moment, we held onto each other both unwilling to let go of other, I tensed as I quickly studied her, she had emerald blue eyes which held a glint of mystery to them, natural light blonde hair, pale skin, perfectly defined facial features and a tall slim figure that resembled the perfect fashion model. I swear that for a brief instance, she was flirtatiously assessing me which was followed suit with a small smile gracing her full lips. Which affectionately made me mimic the same expression, when she finally caught onto the current moment we were experiencing, her smile completely dropped, replaced by an impassive mask which then morphed to a huge frown.

With a surprising amount of strength, she pushed me away from her, fire suddenly igniting underneath her icy blue eyes which narrowed down at me, "Watch what you are bloody doing, you harlot!" she hissed.

Taken aback by her dramatic change of attitude, I snorted "I'm sorry you majesty, won't happen again" I replied sarcastically.

My response seemed to further infuriate her further, as she stormed back towards me, slightly brushing her body against me, "Care to repeat what you just said to me?" raising her voice slightly while emphasizing each word to illustrate a threat.

Instinctively I wanted to back away from her and run like hell but the tequila bottles I consumed earlier were making me feel much cockier than I usually was. I boldly leaned towards her ear and whispered "That will come at a cost sadly".

Leaning her posture back slightly, she raised one of her perfectly shaped eyebrows at me and scrutinised for my reaction, "No stranger has ever spoken to me like that in a very long time and trust me when I say this, the last person didn't live past the age of 20 because of it" uttering coldly at me, noticing that I hadn't seemed to fazed by her threat, she continued before I could even comprehend if she was being serious or not, "Well then love, do you want a full life ahead of you?" she finished condescendingly with a huge grin plastered on her face.

My brain was now subconsciously screaming for me to flee while I still had the chance, but with the amount of crap I've been currently experiencing on my vacation, I grew even more angry thinking back about my recent events of the day "You know what? I've seen this façade before, act like a complete bitch and everyone will cower in fear, I don't believe an ounce of the crap you just said, your just covering up your insecurities with cruelty, go on, hurt me!" almost screaming the two words at her.

Her reaction to my outburst was very unexpected to say the least, she gave me a very innocent pout before titling her head curiously at me, as if she were examining a rare object. "Hmm, I'm still deciding whether to take you up on that offer or not". She paused to look at my neck which made me feel a sudden rush of uneasiness.

"I have been around for a very long time love and it is not very often that a stranger can keep my curiosity for than a mere moment, especially a woman" she shook head over dramatically as if recalling some terrible memories. "but you my dear look delicious", smirking arrogantly at me when she managed to achieve the shocked expression on my face, I was completely surprised by the amount tact she has with making a sudden sexual innuendo, "so then, what's your name love?"

Hesitating whether to answer truthefully or not, I decided I might as well be honest with this frustratingly annoying blonde bombshell, "Melody, Melody Parker".

"Melody... such an exquisite name" she teased.

"I'm Rebekah Mikealson and lets say we go for a drink in this bar over here and we will have a chat so you can convince me in not going to kill you." Winking at me.

I chuckled and rolled my eyes at her, motioning for her to follow me towards the bar, "Yeah right..."

Thoughts? I know Rebekah may seem OC, but im going to depict how we met her first in season 3 TVD, a complete crazy loon. Maybe when they actually start to really know each other we will get the real Rebekah". Until next time... or not.
